Another Chicago Hero.— The Ciptain Si übbs who is announced as having captured Brigadier General Price, (son of the General Price,) and other prominent rebels in Missou ri, recently, is a Chicago man. He was for sometime connected with the United States Express Company here, and joined the Eighth lowa regiment last summer, aud has been in active service in Missouri for several months. It is also a curious coincidence that Captain George Crosby of Price’s gang of rebels who was also captured at the same time was a con ductor with Capt. Stubbs some v ears since up on the Chicago and Rock Island railroad. ■Circumstances with the two conductors have •changed somewhat. Theone is ou the straight load to fume; the other has run his train into tie ditch. Arrival of the Rebel Prisoners.

Christopher was busy nil day yesterday in conveying rations, straw and fuel to the camp, and in rendering the quartets suitable for their reception.

VT, G, Howard, the sermon-stealer who formerly presided over the First Baptist Church of this city. Is among the number io the capacity of a chaplain of one of the Louisiana regiments. Sundry small creditors win be rejoiced at his coming if he has lately been although Ids sudden return to the city which witnessed Ids rapid and rather disgraceful Hegira, will be anything but pleasant to tbe rebel divine. Taylor’s Battery. Capt- Andrus of Co. D, Eleventh Illinois Regiment and T. A. Mason of Taylor's Bat tery, both of ■whom -were engaged in the fight nt Fort Dennison, arrived In this city yester, day. Both were wounded daring the engage ment—Capt. Andros in the thigh by a spent ’ Wfl, ®»d Mason In the arm by a ballet. From the latter we gather tbe following interesting Items: The Battery went into action on .Thursday morning in advance of tbe line, tbe Eighth Illinois directly In the rear. Two were posted on the right and two ’others near by and In dose proximity to ..the rifle pits. The Battery did good service all day and several times repulsed at tempts of the enemy to capture. Boring the .day, Oscar Beckers of Squad 3 was killed by sharpshooters from the rifle pits. The gallant -fellow’s last words were that he was dying in " *-good cause. Corporal Lilly of the same : £quad lost a thumb from one hand and one or two fingers from the other by grape shot. Sergeant Whittle of Squad 6 was badly f'hut not dangerously wounded in tbe back by 'the fragments- ofnahell. At dusk the firing ceased. That night it reined, snowed and hailed incessantly, and the boys remained - upon the field, with their clothes frozen upon them and wearied out, but never flinching op '"’complaining. Daring the night they were t harassed by ..sharp-shooters, but no casualties occurred. On Friday bat little was done. the Ixdteiy toot up a position further 'to the left and again opened fire. At this time tbe battle be -came- general.-With the incidents of that 'dajTourreadere aitTalteadyfamiliar; hqwgal-. lantlyjhey held their position, and bow they savedlhe day.

CoL Bell was authorized directly by the War Depart partment in October last, upon condition of consolidating with Hartmann’s Dragoons, to raise a minimum regiment of cavalry. Itsin cipiency was surrounded with many difficul ties and its successful progress was blocked up with many obstacles in the shape of preju dices to be overcome and company troubles to be settled. One by one these were removed, and the regiment rapidly reached its present .excellent condition. The first companies came into camp in November, and shortly af ter in pursuance of Secretary Cameron’s or" ders, the consolidation with that fine body of men, Hartmann’s Dragoons, was effected! which gave a fresh impulse to recruiting and exercised the happiest influences in perfecting the regiment. This command now numbers seven hundred and twenty-eight men, officers included. ROSTER. The following is a corrected copy of the regimental roster: Colonel—J. W. Bell.

He fortunate ly made his escape, however, and came to this country with other refugeees When the re bellion first broke out, In company with CoL Knoblesdorf he raised the Forty-fourth regi ment Illinois volunteers, in which he held the rank of Captain. Before the Forty-fourth left, he received authority to raise a batallion of cavalry which lias long and favorably been known as Hartmann’s Dragoons. He is a most thorough officer, and has the advantage of long experience in the cavalry service. Major Lippert w as formerly a captain in the Forty-fourth regiment, aud has also seen ser vice in the old country. Major C. A. Bell is a son of the Colonel, andwus formerly a captain in the Third Pennsylvania cavalry, and was present in several skirmishes upon the Poto mac. He was one of the original Ellsworth Zouaves.

W. The other officers of this command are equally meritorious and deserving of mention. All of the German captains have seen service in the old eounliy. The regiment is fortunate in this respect, and will go upon the fiddled by the experience and skill of old cavalay officers. - As we have indicated above, they leave this afternoon for St. Louis, at four o’clock. It is confidently expected by the officers, however, that their ultimate destina tion is Tennessee. A Fraudulekt Tax Collector. —Com- plaints have lately been made at the office of riie City Treasurer that parties iu the city, Uly able to lose even as small a sum as $1.50, have l-ciii swindled by a person representing him self as a street or poll tax collector, by the name of Martin A. Jennings. The receipts up on which these collections have been made wi re shown by the defrauded parties, bearing Jennings’ signature. Some of them were as follows; South Chicago, 1862. RECEIVED from Mr his Poll Tax of sj.6o, for the current year (Signed) M. A. JENNINGS, Overseer of Highways for the Town of South Chicago. Upon examination by the Board of Public Works, it was found that Jennings’ transac tions were amounting to considerable of a trade, and as be made no returns to the City Treasurer, resulted in a nice little percentage to the speculator. He was thereupon imme diately arrested and brought before the Police Court yesterday afternoon. The case was con tinued by the defence until Saturday, when a full elucidation of the facts maybe expected. It may be well enough to advise our read me that the only persons authorized to receipt for Street Taxes in the city, are the City Trea surer and the Treasurer of tbe Board of Pub lic Works. Larcenies. —A young woman by the name of Anna McEweu was. yesterday arraigned at. the Police Court charged by Mrs. Rothgcrber with the larceny of a lot of feathers, a pillow, some China and glass ware and a piece of Brussels carpet.

A continuance was had to obtfiin further testi mony. Henry 'Williams, a* colored mau, was ar rested upon the complaint of J. H. Small, of the' firm of Jones, Perdue & Small, charged with larceny of a gold watch and chain, valued at $l5O, and a pocket hook containing notes to the amount of SIOO. The property was burglariously abstracted from Mr. Small's room over No. 89 Laaallc street. The prison er was held in default of SBOO bail for trial at the Recorder’s Court, * ' 1 ' -;v Married.—-Madame Beaufort and James H Harper, the principals in the late trial before the Recorder’s -Court upon the charge of pro curing on abortion, as our readers will remem ber, were held to bail to answer the charge of adultery.

The chief facts of the case in ques tion, which was an action on the case institu ted by Howard Priestley and Robert B. Mod son vs. the Chicago and Northern Indiana Railroad Company, were substantially as fol lows: Gray, Morrison & Priestley in the winter of 1854, bought a quantity of machinery at the East a Sash and Blind factory then starting by them iu this city. The articles in question were boxed ana a ddressed to T. E. Gray, one of the partners, Sher^,'' an Chicago , and were due at Chicago au°®t the middle of March, 1854, at which time they expected. Inquiries were made for them, beginning at that time, and dally for several weeks, but no intelligence of the goods conld be got at. The parries made ‘several journeys along the line of that and other routes to different points eastward, in hopes of finding, but - wholly without avail—finally, despairing of recovering them, the owners went East, bought a new complete set of machinery, re turning to the city about the middle of May, when, Tor the first time, they were notified by the warehouse men of the’Company that the missing boxes were in storage, to pay charges, and remove them. It was then ascertained that the boxes had been duly received at the time expected, entered on the Railroad Company's hooks, and sent to Mitchell’s • warehouse. During all this rime of about , two months, plaintiffs’ works and workmen were at a standstill, caus ing complete stoppage of business, and heavy losses through loss v>f time, and consequent inability to execute their contracts and orders. The writ in question was brought to recover damages for the losses they sustained. Upon the trial the Circuit Court held that the plain tiffs were only entitled to recover nominal damages, or in other words, the difference in value between the value of the machinery when it arrived in March, and when it was de livered in May. A writ of error was taken to the Supreme Court, and the cause argued at the last sx>ring term of the Court. The plaintiffs claimed a right to recover damages commensurate with the injuries sus tained. by reason of defendants’ wrongful neg lect to notify plaintiffs of the arrival of the goods ai the time, or make an actual delivery to them at the place to which they were ad dressed. The Company claimed a right to put the goods iu store, and lliat they wero not bound to make an actual delivery to the own ers at their place of business, and that the grounds of damage alleged did not entitle plaintiffs to redress. The case was argued for the plaintiffs by Arthur W. Windett, Esq., and for the defendants by Blodgett <fc Winston of ibis city, and Messrs. Glover, Cook and Camp bell of Ottawa- The opinion of the Court, re versing the finding of the Circuit Court, was delivered by Judge Brcesc, and is as follows: OPINION OF THE COUBT BV BREESE' JUSTICE. Robert X>. Morrison and Howard Priestley, sole surviving partners of Thos P. Gray, deceased, vs. the Northern Indiana and Chicago Railroad Com pany. Error to Cook. The question in this case arises upon the in structions given by the Circuit Court on the trial to which plaintiffs excepted. The Court after giving certain instructions for the plaintiff and re fusing others, gave,.of its own motion, the fol lowing; If, the jury find for plaintiffs, the true and only measure of damages is the difference in the ma«ket value of the machinery in question in Chicago, at the lime it arrived, and the time when it should have arrived, and if the jury shall find no evidence on this subject has been given from which any judgment can be found, the plaintiffs are entitled to nominal damages only.’" The fourth instruction given, on motion oi the defendants, is but a cor tollary from this one volunteered bv the Conrt.aad the decision upon that, disposes* ofc both. The principle announced by the Court, in iLs instruction and which determined the ca*e, (he jury finding nominal damages only. Ur.ct the laic. The proposition cannot be enter tointd fur a moment , that unfiera contract to de liver in a reasonable time valuable machinery , such os described in the declaration, (hat the difference in the mcrlel valve of suck machinery at the time t' tea* in fact deliver'd, and when if should have been otlinrw. is oil the damage the owner of the via (hii.ery is entitled to claim. If this was the meas ure. there could he no great incentive to carriers to perform promptly a coulrac' for the delivery of such articles, as they arc rot liable lo deterfoiatc in a few days or months. As to perishable articles of fluctuating value, as grain and live stock, and such like, this rule is oonbtless the true one. and lias been recognized by this Court in thecaseofilieSangatnonand Mor gan County Railroad Company vs. Henry—ll ill., KG. Where the property to be carried and deliv ered is not of a perishable nature, aud is not a common or ordinary object of sale in market aud subject to its fluctuations, but is designed for a special purpose in a special business, the rule Is very different; but in both cases adequate indem nity should be afforded the plaintiff for the loss he lias sustained, Iu the first class of cases the rule established in the case of the L and iL R. R. Go. vs. Henry, affords such indemnity In the other class the true rule is laid down in Green, Adm of Mradden. vs. ilunn. If HI , 618, which was an ac tion for a failure to put certain additional machl • riery into a mill, which the plaintiff had rented of the defendant's intestate. This Court sava the true measure of damages in tins case, was the value oft he use of tliat portion of the machinery which Strad den had contracted to furnish, and ‘which. bvrea : son of his failure todo. Munir was nnablc to enjov. In thiscase the inquiry should have been, what was the value of the nseof snch machinery in such n factory for the time it was detained ? *!n other words, what was a reasonable rent for itr For what sum conld plaintiffs liavc hired equal ma chinery of that description r As this is an action on the case of a wrong done, had the plaintiff no tified the defendants lor what puroose he designed the machinery, and the circumstances of their ne cessities. they might have brought forward other topics and elements of damages snch as they at tempted to show on the trial, that a large nnmbcr of hands were of necessity under pay and idle— loss ©f promised custom, out of which profits would have been made. In the absence of notice, proof'of this kind was properly rejected. If also the plaintiff had alleged In his declara tion that he had made valuable contracts to be ex ecuted with the machinery which would have yielded him profits, the jury though they would not be bound to adopt any special contract that may have been made, yet if reasonable evidence is given that the amount of profit would have been made as claimed, the damages might be assessed accordingly.

The money msrktt to-dny is Unusually quiet . Business is moving along imoothly, and the feeling in commercial and monetary circles is sound hopeful. Anxiety and impatience are expressed at the delay in the passage of the Treasury Note bill, but we doubt whether bur savana will bestir them selves on that account, and promptly enact the measure. Probably a new influx of letters to the Committee in charge, from our financial readers, might have some effect. We advise a trial of the experiment. The credit of the Government and the ciedlt of its creditors are alike suffering from the untimely delay. New York Exchange la stQl a drug. The hqnVa charge customers H&K per cent discount, aadmost of them don't care to buy at that. The nominal Belling price la H percent premium; but conces sions can readily be obtained on round lots. Some of the banks would be glad to sell at par. Currency is not quite so scarce to-day. Gold is dull, and prices are drooping. The buy ing price to-day is 2#@2# per cent premium; sell ing, 303#—the latter by some of the brokers for small lots. Washington's Blbthdat.—According to the re commeadation of the President of the United States, the banks of the city will he closed on Sat urday, Washington’s Birthday.

We take pleasure in publishing the following card: We, the undersigned. Bankers and Brokers of the city of Chicago, hereby agree to close our respect ive offices on Saturday, the 22d Inst., for the pur pose of celebrating the Birthdav of the Father of his Country.

The banks allow customers H pre mium for sight drafts on New York, but will not buy of others above par.

Important Legal Decision in Kentucky.— The Kentucky Yeoman of Thursday last says: • The Court of Appeals, now in session In this city, on Friday last rendered a decision in the case of Johnson zg. Higgins, from the Scott .‘Circuit Court, sustaining the constitutionality of the llrst section of the act known as the “Stay Law,” which prevents the rendition of judgments formoney un til after after January 1, 1862. Judge Goodloc in the Court below, had rendered judgment against Geo. W Johnson for §12,000, after the passage of the act above named, upon the ground that the first section of the law was unconstitutional. The Court*of Appeals now reverse the decision of Jndge G., and declare the danse suspending the rourts to be constitutional The other sections of the law were not passed upon, not being involv ed in this case.” Repudiation in lowa.— A recent letter from lowa says:—“l am obliged to say that there is a ’ strong disposition on the part of the counties re ferred to. to repudiate their liabilities. Intact, nearly all the counties in the State are tainted with it; and it is well understood that two of the three Supreme Judges are favorable to it. This is in consequence of an elective judiciary.” The above is from the New York Journal of Commerce, and in our judgment the hints at repu diation are entirely groundless. - Any just legal claims against any county in lowa, we have no doubt will be fully paid. The people of that noble State do not belong to the repudiating race. They live, if anywhere, in the State that breeds such traitors us Jeff. Davis. It maybe true that right and justice require that the villains of fancy opera tions In some of the counties should lose their claims, but honest daims in lowa will be repudia ted never.
