MARCH Is, 1864> THE PIRATE RAPPAHANNOCK. The Paris correspondent of itie New York Times, under date of March Ist, writes as follows: ■ The French Government, tired of the annov ances caused by the presence of Confederate ships in irenen ports, has announced, as its law of aj tioßy tJ e same regulations as those published two m°nths ago by the English Government, inese new regulations are more stringent than the original neutrality proclamation, and ttnd to di minish and simplify the contestations between the two tioyernments. Among other tilings specified in these regulations, are two, to the effect that no Yessel ol either of tbe belligerents can remain in port more than twenty-iour hours, unless by stress • of weather or lor necessary repairs, aud that no can return to a French port after leaving it m a less time than three months. These roles the .trench Government hope will lessen the induce ment lor making of its ports a hajbor of reluge on alljDccasions. The Bappnhannock has furnished a fruitful ex ample of the nature of the annoyance these ve sels are liable to provoke. In the first place,her Com mander Capt. Campbell, de Clares that she broke some part of her machinery at sea, and drifted or was blown into Calais, which gives her the benefit of the stress of weather clause, and the contnry cannot be proved. But evidence has been obtained irom England, that when the vessel escaped from Sheerness the was not in a at condi tion to go to sea, as for example, among other things, that the-masts were not stayed, . and upon this very strong point it is urged that the French Government ought not to allow her to leave port as a Confed erate vessel. Again, it was objected by the Ame rican Minister, tbattae packages senttothe vessel Vcm England ought not to be permitted to go on board; but this objection was overruled by the French Government, on theground that a part of the material in the packages was for the repair or the real or pretended a- . cide-1 to ihe mi hmery of the ship, and the rest insignificant and more or less superfluous at tides for the furnishing of the i abin and kitclie.. And again, a seiious discussion has ■ l t in regard to the crewof the vessel,ana into which the English Government has been drawn. Several crews, surreptitiously recruited m England by the Confederate A gen's, have deserted, after arriving at Calais and learning toe trne situation of affairs, and Capt. Campbell ap plied to the police authorities of the town to aid him in preventing these desertions. This circum stance brought Lord Cowley, the English Ambas sador at Paris, into the affair, so that the fight has now become a triangular one and bids fair also to become an interesting one. Calais, it will be un derstood, offers great advantages for desertions, since it is the port from which the Eng lish mail boats start twice a day to cross the channel, and a sailor once on hoard of one of these vessels is safe. For this reason,and to put a stop to a discussion which was annoying and irritating to all parties, the commander of the Rappahannock asked the privi lege of transferring his vessel to Cnerbourg or Brest, from which ports there is no ready way of escape to England; but as the matter of desertion was no business of the French Government, the request was very naturally refused. At present the number of sailors on board the vessel can hardly exceed half a dozen The American Minister at Paris has collected enough evidence in regard to the Rappahannock to satisfy him that this vessel, if allowed to go to sea, ought by every fair construction of Interna tional law, to stand in the same relation to the French Government as the Alabama and Florida do to the English Government, and he has there fore given written notice to the French Govern ment that it will be held responsible for- all the damage she may do to American commerce. The ofllcial notice of the American Minister at once gave an increased gravity to the affair, and the Emperor, whose attention had been specially eailed to the subject, aEsnred the American Minis ter, in a lengthy conversation* that the Interna tional law, whatever it shonld proTe to be, shobld be stringently executed. - Thus, at the present moment, the prospect is. that the Rappahannock will not be allowed logo ' to tea; hnt international law Is not construed in all countries alike, and ihe law connselors.of the French Government may And some technicality we have not yet dreamed of across the Atlantic. „ FROM WASHINGTON. The correspondent oi the Timet writes as fol lows : A letter received to-day by a prominent citizen, from Gin. Sherman, gives some particulars of the late raid in Alabama. When the command re. turned, tne Yicksburgh train was ten mile 3 in length, and composed of negroes, horses add mules. In the section of country traversed,every thing of use to the enemy was destroyed. There was found to be no lack of supplies among- the people, and in.one day’s toraging snfficient eonld be obtained for horses and men to last two davs. Gen. Sherman could have taken Mobile had’he known Commodore Farragnt was near the place to co-operate. Capt: Sawyer, of the Ist New Jersey Cavalry, who has jnst returned from Richmond, reports that he saw, on Monday last, Lieut. Col. Litch field, Major Cook, Dr. Kinston and three officers of a negro regiment, fn one cell, chained to six ne groes. The prisoners are fed upon corn bread and water, and have a limited supply even of that. The ÜbrW correspondent writes: Piivaie advices from the South state that the rebels have organized a very strong force in North Carolina, and that they have distributed it all along the railroad line which connects-Petersburg to Weldon and "Weldon to Wilmington. The forces are said to be the nucleus of an armv of observation, destined to watch the Soutli-rn part of James River, which, in the calculation of the rebels, will be attacked next spring bv the Federal army, commanded by General Grant in person. It is also stated that General Longstregt is to be recalled from his command, to be appointed commander of the forces in Southern Virginia, and that General Kirby Smith will take his place. The rebels are now actively engaged in manufacturing rails and rolling stock for the establishment of new lines of railroad in North Carolina and Georgia. Abranch of the railroad has been already built, com meneucing at Ashby, running to Bibb iron works, in Bibb county, Georgia; thence to tlie rich coal region of Catawba county, and ultimately to Elyton, Jefferson conntv. FROM THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC. STUART NORTH OF THE RArpAHANNOCK. The Times 1 correspondent at Washington sends the following despatch: There is some excitement in military circles to night about the reported raid by Stuart. He crossed at Fredericksburg last night, with a force esti mated at five thousand men. Kilpatrick and Mer ritt are on his track. The army correspondent of the World in an nouncing the movement, says: The enemy are not c by. Ibe recent destruction of property within their lines, and are now attempting to do something in the way of retaliation. Lasthight in- Jormatiou ■wus -received at headquarters to the eflect that Stuart, ■with five thousan l cavalry (probably fifteen hundred), was crossing the Rappahannock at or near Iredericks burg. The full object of the enemp is not yet de veloped: but the whole Army of the Potomac is well in hand, ready for a raid or a general move on the part of the enemy. 1 Ii is thought that the enemy’s cavalry will also demonstration- toward the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.

An Impostok.—Quite a number of persons residing in the western part of the city have been called upon lately by a middle-aged man of rather respectable appearance, who professed to be col lecnrg money lor the Western Soup So tety, and who produced a certificate purporting to be signed by the Secretary, authorizing him to make sueh collections. The Secretary desires us to state that in the early part of the season the Tressurer em ployed the usual collector, Samuel W. B.aek, who has acted in that capacity for a number of years, and who alone was authorized to solicit conti ibu tions. His collections for the present season being completed, the public are requested to be on their guard against the impostor.

Street Clearing.—Mr. Dickinson, the new Inspector of Streets, has commenced operations in earnest. Men with scrapers and brushes, and carts for the removal of the ashes can now be seen daily in almost e\ery pan of the city. Some diffi culty is yet experienced in getting fully under way, owing to the scarcity of tools, but this is fast being remedied. It will take some time to remove'the filth—the of months from the cobble-stone, but when the streets are onee thoroughly cleansed, the activity and energy already displayed by Mr. Dickinson is a sufficient guarantee- that they will be kept in good con dition. Murdoch at the Academy or Music.—Mr. James E. Murdoch gives a Reading at the Aca demy of Music. on Tuesday evening next, for the benefit of the U. S. Christian Commission. Among the recitations will be the new poem ot 1 ‘Gettys. burg, ’ ’ which has been read with great success by Mr. Mnrdoch; also a poem written for the occa sion, entitled »‘Our Heroes. ’’. Mr. Mnrdoch gives these readings for the benefit of the soldiers, gratuitously, and deserves to be generously en couraged. "We are glad to learn that the sale of tickets, which commenced this morning, gives in dications of a full house. Excitement at Camp ’William Penn.—An individual from Maryland went to Camp "William Penn, yesterday, to claim a man alleged to be a slave. His business became known to some of the soldiers, and qnite an excitement was created. The men in camp became very indignant, and it seemed as if the Marylander was about to receive rather a rongh handling. Col. Wagner, the commandant of the post, interfered, audit was finally found necessary to lock the man in the guard house to protect him from violence. "Wants Repairing.— Green street, from Eleventh to Ridge avenue, is in a very bad condi tion. The carriage-way is fnil of rats iisd many of the cobble stones are entirely loose. A' vehicle passing along the street Is in great danger of being broken. By the city ordinances the Passenger Hallway Companies are required to keep In repair the streets occupied by them, and the Commis sioner of Highways should notify the Green and Coates Street Passenger Railway, to look after the squares above mentioned. Adjourned.— The General Court-Martial which has been in session, in this city, since the SSth ot December last, has adjourned. The pro ceedings have been sent to Major-General Conch, commanding the Deoartment of the Susquehanna, for approval. Howe, charged with the murder of an enrolling officer, was tried hy this Court. Lieut. - Colonel H. A. Frink, was the President of the Court, and Captain Ghas. Percy Clarke, Judge Advocate. Collision Between Passenger Railway Cars.—About eight o’ clock last evening a passen ger car on the Thirteenth street line came in col lision with one ot the Ridge avenue cars at the corner of Thirteenth and Mt. Vernon etreets. The pole of one of the cars ran through the window of the other car, slightly Injuring one of the passen gers. One ei the horses attached to the Ridge •avenue car was so badly injured thatithad to be killed.
