Sept. 12. 1864. lt? jy Fbdkbal Codbt Judos John J. Jackson, Jb., Pbisidinq.?Upon tbe meet ing of the Court yesterday morning the ! Judge rendered a decision upon a matter of some importance in relation to the de tention of treasonable papers and corres pondence in post officeB. It appears that tbe Grand Jury have information that tbe post master at Parkersburg has detained in that office, by tbe authority of the com mander of tbe post, and upon what be conceives to be bis duty under instructions from the Post Office Department, certain papers addressed to rebel sympathizers.? Tbe jury asked instructions from the court as to whether it is their duty to pre sent tbe post master. The Judge said tbat when a section of the country was lu a condition to be governed by the civil au thorities then the military power .must always be subordinate thereto, and tbat it was the duty of tbe post masters who may discover treasonable correspondence or publications to report tbe faots to the dis trict attorney tbat the same may be inves tigated and tbe offenders punished. There was clearly no law justifying the post master in detaining any suob packages. On the contrary tbe law provided for the pun ishment of sucb offences. However much tbe court might differ, as it certainly did, with the sentiments of certain newspapers published io the loyal states, there was no authority in law for their detention and the court was bound bo to decide. It was not for the court to say whether tbe post maBter at Parkersburg should be present ed. It was the duty of tbe Jury to ascer- I tain tbe relation existing between tbe civil | ond military authorities at Parkersburg at the time the newspapers were detained.? It was also the duty of tbe jury to inquire whether or not the papers detained were of a treasonable character. Being satisfied tbat the post moster acted in accordance with what be thought to be bis duty and upon what he supposed to be proper au thority, in tbe event of a presentment by the jury, tbe court will advise tbe district attorney not to persist in tbe prosecution of tbe case. [We understand that the Grand Jury dismissed the case.] Tbe trial of Woodruff, charged with ob structing the Board of Enrollment, was | resumed. After tbe evidence was taken the case was argued by Gen. Wheat for the prisoner and Col. Smith and J. T. Chandler, Esq., for the Government. After an ab sence of a few minutes the jury returned | a verdict of not guilty. 1ST An Entkbpbisinq Woman.?About | six years ago an active little German wo man, a widow, was seen every day in our streets, alleys and by ways, gathering up old rags in her arms, which she washed and Bold to the dealers. She was very in dustrious and consequently very prosperous and about six months later, she got a little hand wagon in wbich to convey her rags to market. A year or so later the same wo man was seen driving a shabby old horse attached to a shabby old wagon, and she appeared to be dealing in articles other than rags, and appeared to be improving rapidly in wealth and goods. Now she drives two good horses bitched to a good and substantial wagon, besides which she has accumulated a handsome little fortune. Although she works as industriously as ever, she dresses on the Sabbath, not ex actly in "purple and fine linen," but well and neatly, and is sending her daughter to boarding shool in a distant town. She says she intends to work until her two oblldren are well educated and well pro vided against the probability of Buch ad versities as she has had to encounter. 03y What is It??On Saturday last what was Bnpposed to be a dressed deer arrived from Oakland at the house of List, Morrison & Co., per express. It was suspended in front of the house and at tracted great attention, from its aingnlar formation. One gentleman who baa seen a great deal of this sort of game offered to bet two hundred and fifty dollars tbat it was not a deer. A butcher who was pres ent took the bet and put up all the money he had into tbe hands of third party. Da ring tbe day nearly all the butchers in the city, and every person who has had any experience as a hunter was called in to see the "what is it," but tbe opinions were so conflicting tbat the bet could not be deci ded, and the man who shipped it was tel egraphed to send the affidavit of the hunter who killed it, and tbe certificate of the shipper. WSf A Dibcbbpancy.?The Wheeling Inltlligtncer of the 8th contains a list of recrnits mustered in on the 7th and 8th of September, and among them 18 to tbe credit of Ohio county. How is this to be reconciled with tbe claim that Ohio county wbb first to fill her quota? Somebody has evidently "prevaricated" the truth in re gard to this matter.? WclUburg Herald. The supposed "discrepancy" is explained in this way: These eighteen men were recruited and mustered in the Kanawha Valley to the credit of Ohio county three weeks ago. Our military committee were aware of the fact, but tbe official informa tion wbb not received at the Provost Mar shal's office until tbe agent arrived with the recruits. The truth has been "prevar icated" to this extent, no more. j9~Thb Fibimbn's Pa*ad?, on Satur day, was ae creditable to the Tarloas com- I paniea participating as any display the boys have made for a long time, and was an evidence of a more thorough organisation than we supposed existed. The apparatas bears evidence of having blen well cared for, and everything abont the procession was arranged with the best order and taste. The procession was accompanied by three brass bands, and attracted great attention in all parts of the city. Nothing has a greater tendency to encourage an interest in the fire department than these | parades, and nothing is so well calculated to improve its efficiency. All of the com panies had a good turn out. jtfg^Snnw is Fami.?On Saturday last a verdant looking recruit presented himself I to the Board of Enrollment for examination, when the following conversation took place between himself and the examining Sur geon. Surgeon.?Do you know who is the Qov ernoor of this State? Recruit.?No. Surgeon.?Have you never heard of Gov. Boreman or Gov. Peirpoint t Recruit.?No. , Surgeon.?Who iB the President of the United States ? Recruit.?I don't know. Surgeon.?What connty are you from? Recruit.?Harrison county.

The Rev enue will oommence running in the Pitts burgh trade, in which new field we wish her abundant success. The Fannie and W. F.

We have been allowed to read a letter from Capt, Craig, of the 1st Va. Inf., which was written at Charleston, [ S. C., Aug. 20th. He states that Lieut.

GEO. W. SMITH. Wheeling, Aug..26th, 1844-lm. Afternoon Report. From the Army of the Potomac-? Another Battle Probable N?w Yobk, Sept. 10.?The Herald's City Point correspondent of the 8tb, iaja deser ters and prisoners brongbt in within s day or two, state that Gen. Lee hae moved hit head qaartera from Richmond to the neigh borhood of Ream's Station on the Weldon rail road,with the avowed intention of giv ing battle. If this prove trne we are proba bly on the eve of another terrific contest. Oar preparations for the offensive and de fensive are admirable, and Lee will have to select between allowing as to retain occu pation of the Weldon rail road or attack ing oar entrenched positions. The Herald's correspondent with the 5th corps, dated the 8th, says yesterday morn ing at 7 o'clock the rebels made an attack upon one of the advance pickets of part of the 6th corps driving them in npon the line, wonnding one and capturing eleven. The Herald's correspondent with the 9th corps, of the 7lb, says Gen. Grant visited Gen. Wilcox's front line to day viewing the recently constructed works. A branch rail road between that and City Point will be in operation in a few days, and every point of the line, dispensing with the here tefore difficult transportation of stores over the lengthy, torteous and high roads. The featnre of this new road is that it rnns up hill and down hill witbont any refer ence to the time honored requirements of grading, ka. The road is now in operation to tbe Jerusalem plank road. From the Army of the Potomac Hiadquabtbbs Abut of thb Potomac. Sept. 8th?For the past two days not a single guo has been heard. The rebels were massing on our front, with tbe intention of penetrating our left bat have evidently given np the enterprise within a day or two. Strict orders have been issued against intercourse between tbe pickets. Contrabands from Chester, who came in to onr lines last night, report; trains run ning on tbe Weldon road as far as Stony Creek, where tbe supplies are loaded on wagons and hauled to Petersburg, via Dinwiddie C. H. Between 50 and 60 wa gons are constantly engaged in this busi ness. The confederates are taking all tbe corn to feed their animals, leaving none for tbe farmers for next season, exoept just enough to say they didn't take it all.

Advicei from New Orleans Nsw Yoke, Sept. 10.?We bave advices from New Orleans to the 3d by the Eve ning Star. It appears that oar forces occupied Clin ton only two days and two nights.

Early manifests uo further symptems of a desire to attack us in force, but on the contrary seems only anxious to retire with the least annoyanoe. It is stated that Averill in falling baok from tbe vicinity of Martinsburg was less fortunate than was asserted yesterday, bat nothing like disaster or serious injury befel him.

Nona of bis woands were, however, of a serious char acter. - The Richmond Examiner of to-day con tains ^ dispatch from Hood's trmj, dated Sept. 7th, which tays, yesterday oar ad vance drove the enemy from Jonesborro and recaptured the hospital, containing 90 of onr wounded. Sherman oontinues to draw back towards Atlanta for the purpose it is reported, of strengthing the works on the eastern, western and southern ap proaches thereto. 1500 will cover oar losses from all canses, in the battles and skirmishes of last week. Toe army is now in fine spirits. Sept. 10, A. M.?At a point of oar line just west of the Jerusalem plank road, oc. copied by the 3d Division of the 3d Corps, the pickets have been eo cloee together that they eould converse witbent difficulty. Ob a part of ibis line and some distance in the rear of their advance, the enemy had thrown up a line of slight works with the intention, it is supposed, of falling back to them when occasion might demand. It was determined last night to drive them back to tbis line and lhas streagnten oar own. About midnight, when all was quiet the division was formed in line ot battle, and tbe picket line being re enforced it was ordered to advance. Tbe rebels were evidently not prepared for such a move ment as they were completely taken by surprise aad oeurly the entire line was captured. Tbey made every effort to retake tbe lost ground but did not succeed. Our men now occupy the line and are securely entrench ed. We took about 100 prisoners, while our own loss was very light. Desultory firing has been kept up in that vicinity all tbe morning, and tbe enemy evidently feel a little hurt at being so taken by surprise. Some of them called out to our men saying, "That was a cursed mean Yankee trick any how, bat we'll pay you op for it before long." N?w Yoke, Sept. 10.?Tbe Herald's New Orleans correspondent of tbe 3d says: Tbe latest arrivals from Brazos Santiago brings reports tbat several vessels, which sailed from New Orleans lately for Matamoras with cargoes, and intended for Oortinas' government or a general market, have been seized by the French at tbe mouth of tbe Rio Grande. Tbe Herald's Matamoras correspondent of the 26th says that all communication in tbat direction is cut off by the French. Cortinas declares tbat he will defend Matamoras against the French, bnt as tbs eity has no fortifications it will be difficult for Cortinas to bold it. Cortinas demands of tbe merchants of Matamoras a loan of $150,000 in specie, which tbey refuse. Messrs. Qainn aad Hurd, acting British and Prus-.iau Consuls, bave been tbrowu into priton, together with others, for resisting this demand for money. Gen. Mejia was advancing on llatamoras vith 4,000 troops. He bas reached and occupied Monterey. President Juarez made no resistance, but left for Chihuahua. Mannill is strongly furlifled in all tbe Northern region on tbs Pacific slope, where the cause of Presilent Juarez tri umphs. Assistance of tbe greatest importance was coming from California, and a beavy immigration friendly to Juarez wa- reach ing Sonora. Hew York Mt-rket New York, teptember 10.
