IXTKKESTINO CIVIL CASES.
The suit of Messrs. Longstreet, Bradford
A Cos.. against Mr. Pierce Bkelian of the
firm of Conyngliam A Skehan, of tins ciiy,
has attracted considerable attention in busi
ness circles here. The case was tried before
Provost Judge Parsons, Judge Advocate and
Provost Judge of the District and Post of
Savannah.
It seems that the action was brought to
collect a biil for merchandise bought by Mr.
Skeban, and the controversy was principally
upon the question whether or not the time,
after which the hill became due,had expired,
though there were many other incidental
questions involved. Mr. John Sedgwick, of
the firm of I.nngstrcet, Bradford & Cos., New
York, and also of L. C. Norvell & Cos ~ of
this city, and others, testified that, upon the
introduction of L. C. Norvell A Cos., Mr.
Skchan had obtained credit from the
firm lor the time- desired by him. viz: 30
or 40 days. That when Mr. Sedgwick was
about to leave New York, lie was especially
instructed by them to collect the
bill at Savannah. Upon calling upon Mr.
Skeban, tiiat gentleman had requested 00 or
SO days more time.
Mr. Skehan, on the other hand, claimed
that he bought the goods upon “ open ac
count " which, however, he admitted, in
usually understood to mean payment in 15
or 20 days, or whenever demanded.
The bill was not disputed as to amount,
and was over due according to the state
ments of both parties.
The following is the decision of the case :
•‘Longslreet, Bradford & Cos., New York—
n Pierce Skehan, Savannah.
“Ordered—That the balance of the claim
of Longslreet, Bradford & Cos., against Pierce
Skehau, amounting to £4131.50, uow due, be
paid from the fund attache'! in the banking
house of L. C. Norvell & Cos., of Savacuah,
and that the attachment on the balance be
removed and the same subject to the draft of
Air. Skehau.”
The first case tried aad determined before
Court, between L. C. Norvell & Cos., aud
Mr. Skehau, was upon the light of L. C.
Norvell & Cos., oi which firm Mr. Sedgwick
is a partner, as well as of Longstreet, Brad
ford & Cos., to appropriate a portion of Mr.
Skehan's deposit in their banking house to
payment of the debt due Longstreet, Brad
ford & C’o, without the conseut of Mr. Ske
han, or the order of any judicial tribunal.—
This case was decided against Norvell &
Cos.

A. A. G., Major Gray, Judge Advocate
Geueral, Capt. 11. M. Bragg, A. DC , Lieut.
G. W. Jame3, Lieut. K. Talcott, of his staff,
arrived in this city on a visit at half past two
o’clock yesterday afternoon, on the U. 3.
steamer Diamond, from Ililton Head. A
few minutes after the arrival of the Dia
mond, Gen. Grover, accompanied by two of
his staff, visited Gen. Gillmore on board.
The fine post band at Hilton Head, under
the leadership of Professor G. W. Ingalls, ac
companied the General and performed sev
eral beautiful pieces of music as the steamer
neared the wharf.
U. 3. Steamer Diamond.--The present
war has been to the Anglo libel ship-build
ers a harvest. Their ship yards and ma
chine shops have day and night been busy
with work upon licet, light draft vessels for
running the blockade to supply the rebels
with guns, ammunition, etc. Many of these
neutrality crafts have fallen into the hands
of the gallant seamen of Uncle Sam. The
U. S. Steamer Diamond, Hag-ship of Gen 1
A. G'llmore, is one of the captured ves
sels, and is a perfect model oR beauty. We
annex the following as her dimensions : She
was built by James Henderson and Son, En- I

yesterday tried by Judge Parsons, and tiie
proof being positive, he was fined fifty doi

The government will not, therefore, lose any
thing by the speculation. It is needless to
add that greenbacks came down on the stand
of the Judge, and Campbell was discharged
with the injunction to “go and sin no more.”

DRAMATIC.
The Performance Last Evening. — The
change in the bill at tlie Savannah 'Theatre
brought out a crowd of theatre-goers last
evening. Those ever-favorite pieces, “Black
Eyed Susan,” and “The Spectre Bridegroom."
were presented in a highly satisfactory man
ner. We venture to say that none of those
who visited our Theatre with the remem
brance of the Williams of the best actors of
the northern t heatres in their minds, felt that
that of Mr. Davenport suffered by tho com
parison. The affecting passages of tiie
play were effectively brought out by the
new company, which well deserves the place
which it is attaiuing in the favor of our
public.
The uproarious farce of the “Spectre Bride
groom” dismissed the audience in the best of
humor.
Bum. Gen. James F. Hall. —We are glad
to notice tue confirmation by the Senate of
the promotion of Lt. Col. J. F. Hall, Ist N.
Y. Vol. Engineers, to the rank of Brevet
Brigadier General. Gen. Hall has been in the
Department of the South almost ever since
its organization. He has Avon the praise of
every general officer he has served under,
and his promotion was strongly recommend
ed by Gens. Gillmore, Hunter. Terry, Fos
ter, Wilson, Seymour, Benliam, Hatch, and
others. At Fort Pulaski he filled a conspic
uous part; he displayed the greatest courage
and coolness at Oiustee; he was most effic
ient through the Morris Island campaign;
on the expeditions from Hilton Head last
summer and fall he was of great service,
and as Provost Marshal General ho has been
most efficient.
Solon Shingle.—' The Davenport Cornbi
! nation Troupe announced “Solon Shingle”
!iu their biil for Monday night. The piece it
self nerds no introduction to our readers—
those who.have not seen it have read of it,
and knew that it is very funny, and very
philosophical, and has a good moral to it.
We will only say that this Company have
the talent and the force to prod acre it in good
style, and we believe that with it they will
get up one of the best performances they
have yet given. Mr. Herndon does Solon,
in u strong cast, and the bill has another good
piece and several minor features to recom
mend it.
Review or Colored Tuoops.—Yesterday
there was a very fine review of some colored
troops on the line grounds on the outskirts
ofthe city. They were not only reviewed but
were inspected by Gen. Beth Williams, who
expressed liis admiration of their excellent
drill and discipline, of their readiness for in
-1 speetion on a totally unexpected short notice,
1 and of the fine appearance and behaviour iu
I every regard.
Black Mail.— This is n subject of which
we hear a good deal in these days. Up to
tho inception of the present war this crime
was scarcely hear !of in America, and it is
thereto!e one of the numerous evils that at
tend war—one of the ills to afflict mankind
like thoso that flew out when the box of Pan
dora was opened. Black mail is a term said
to be used in contradistinction to white mail.
The word mail is from the French maille, an
old French coin of less value, we believe,
than a penny. It is said to have been first
used in the North ot ring land, where, during
the unsettled time after wars, parties of rob
bers aud freebooters used to make incursions
on the peaceful inhabitants, and exacted a
certain sum, t called black mail, from
tiie people in order to procure ex
emption from pillage. Also certain
powerful families were supposed to be in
league with these robbers, and on the pay
ment of a certain sum would agiee to have
j others protected. This is ihe origin of black
i mail. The term at present indicates the
taking of a sum of money by a public aud
acd sworn officer of the law to grant favors
t > individuals. It is of course a crime pun
ishable at common law ; aud scarcely any
crime has so great a tendency to undermine
the foundation ot society—as thereby the
law is not only executed, but becomes in
tue hands ot vile ministers or agents a pos
itive evil.

Removal.— The office of the “Courier”
will be removed to No. 40 Broad street, as
soon as the necessary arrangements can be
effected. The change will probably take
place on or about the first of next month. —
It was contemplated moving the establish
ment to No. 215 Broad street, but it was dis
covered that another building would better
serve our purpose.
Wood.— Notwithstanding the abundance
of wood that is in the vicinity of Charleston,
there appears to be a great scarcity in the
market. It is with great difficulty that pri
vate families can find a supply sufficient to
enable theni to do common cooking. At a
tew miles in the country the wood is cut and
piled up in cords, ready to be transported to
any given point. It seems to us the owners
of this property might do a profitable busi
ness by having it brought to the city. Botli
officers aud citizens are dependent almost
wholly on wood for fuel, the small supply
of coal which was found in the city having
become exhausted. Owners of wood in the
country, having teams at their disposal,
might bring a supply to this market where it
would meet with a quick sale, and on their
return home take a load of groceries and
provisions for their families. Wood is an
article we cannot easily dispense with, and
w r e hope the present scarcity will not long
prevail. The demand for it will, in a short
time, when manufacturers, who use steam
engines in their establishments, get thorough
ly under way, be considerably enhanced.—
Then, don’t fail to let us have wood.
[From the Charleston Courier, March 1
New Offices.— The opening yesterday, by
order of Colonel Woodford, otYour addition
al offices for administering the Oath of Alle
giance, caused great satisfaction among the
citizens. Notwithstanding the additional
facilties offered, each office was crowded dur
ing the regular hours with anxious appli
cants. We trust, however, the pressure will
be nearly over in a day or two.
The Weather.— Yesterday we were visit
ed with both a gleam of sunshine and a dash
of rain In the morning the weather was
extremely unpleasant in consequence of the
frequent showers; but in the afternoon the
sun came out, and, at intervals gave us
promise of a fair sky for the remainder of the
day. March, however, is a treacherous
month, and we cannot count with much cer
tainty on favorable weather.
From the Charleston Courier, March IT.
Funeral of Lieut. Charles H. Brad
ford.—Tlie city, yesterday, beheld an ini
posing military display, one which derives
much of its interest, from the fact that it was
another instance of the vindication of Ameri
can authority aud the redress of an indignity
which, eighteen months ago, had been in
dieted on the remains of a gallant and patri
otic officer.
In an attack made on Fort Sumter on the
7th of September, lt<(s3, Lieut. Charles H.
Bradford, of the U. S. Marine Corps, was
mortally wounded and brought up to the
Federal Prisoner’s Hospital in this city. Soon
after his arrival, he sent for Dr. Albert G.
Mackey, well known and distinguished for
his uncompromising and unwavering devo
tion to the Union Flag. He had also been
the warm friend aud Masonic associate of
Lieut. Bradford’s father. Dr. Mackey at
tended his young friend throughout his ill
ness, administered with fraternal kindness
to his wants, watched by his bedside, and.
on his deatii, which took place on the 23d of
September, had his body carried to the Ma
sonic Burial Ground in' Magnolia Cemetery,
where, by himself and his two sons, tlie on
ly witnesses of the ceremony, it was con
signed to a respectable grave. »
The threats and wiient denunciations of
some rabid secessionists, exasperated at the
honors thus paid to the remains of an enemy,
were that night communicated by the then
keeper of the Cemetery to Dr. Mackey, and
lie was, under these ‘threats, compelled to
disinter the body and conduct it to Potter's
Field, where it was again buried. There it
has remained, the spot having been carefully
marked for the purpose of future identifica
tion, until the evacuation of the citv.
Most of these facts were made known by
a-deserter from the Federal Prisoner's Hos
pital to the officers of the blockading squad
ron, and on the arrival of Admiral Dahlgren
iu the harbor lie immediately took the nec
essary steps for vindicating the honor of the
flag and restoring the remains to the spot
from which they had been ejected.
In accordance with this plan tlie coffin
containing the body was disinterred and ta
ken from Potter s Feld at nine o’clock Thurs
day morning, and carried to St. Paul a
Church, under escort of a detachment of th e
One Hundred and Fovty-lburth Regiment,
New York Volunteers.
At eleven o’clock ihe body was brought
into the Church and received at the door b v
the Rev. John Blake, U. S. N., Chaplain to
the UnitedStty.es steamer “New Hampshire, ’
who commenced to read the burial servi ee
of tho Episcopal Church, aud continued until
tbe cotfiu was deposited in front of the altar.
The remains were followed by Admiral
Dahlgren ; Lieutenant Commander Brad-
ford, Chief es Admiral Dahlgren’s Stall;
Lieutenant Commander Mathews ; Colonel
Woodruff, Commandant of the Post ; Gener
al Hatch and staff; Captain Fillibrown, U.
S. steamer “Sonora;” Captain Dana, U. S.
steamer “PotomskaCaptain Barrett,
Monitor “Catskill Captain Lewis, Monitor
“Nantucket;’’ Captain Dyer, U. S. steamer
“Home;” Captain Phiuney, Captain Redding,
Paymaster Watmougk, Fleet-, Judge Advo
cate, Charles Cowley and a large number of
Army and Navy officers and citizens. Not
withstanding the threatening aspect of the
weather there was a good attendance, and
tU ’ seafs both in the body of the Church aud
the galleries were nearly all occupied.
[From the Char eston Courier, March 17, ]
There is nothing of marked importance
transpiring within the lines of the Depart
ment .of the South. Brigadier-General Pot
ter still holds the advance in the direction of
the Santee liiver. No large force of robe’s
is in his immediate front. Tlie road between
here and Columbia is said to be infested with
guerillas; but they do not seem to have
caused any special injury. A few days ago
a gentleman arrived lrom Columbia who
sam that be was stopped on tlie route by
toui ot \v uccltT $ scouts. After
uig lum as to his intentions they let him pass.
A report reaches us from Georgetown that
the colored men in the vicinity have been
giving the inhabitants some trouble. It is
understood that Admiral Dahlgren has sent
a force of men to guard the place, so that in
ffitnre the pea&» of the community will be
maintained.
[From the Chariestdi Correspondence of the Pfirt
Uojil New South.]
By order of Brig.-Gen. Hatch, Dr. A G.
Mackey has been appointed C’ity Inspector,
and four other gentlemen have been; ppoint
ed to act as his assistants, Under tneir di
rection a large force of laborers has been
set to work cleaning the various streets. In
. a short time we shall witness a wonderful
j improvement in the condition of the city,
| and lie prepared to allay onr apprehensions
i as to a visit from fevers and epidemics dur
| ing the coining hot season.
It gives us pleasure to record a noble and
! worthy act recently performed by Union offi
| cers They subscribed among" themselves
| toward tlie raising of One Hundred dollars
! which they presented to Mr. C. B. Webb, a
| Udion man of Charleston who, assisted by
i ins wife, humanely provided for the well
! being of many of the Union prisoners con-
I fined in the prisons of the city last summer.
! The money was raised for the purpose of
giving Mr. Webb an opportunity of furnish
ing himself with tools to engage in business.
Since the occupation of the city by the
Union forces a remarkable number of fires
have occurred They are doubtless the work
of boy incendiaries, who have the plunder of
wood, lead and iron as an object The build
| ings burned were unoccupied.
One day tills week, while a small boat,

Our friend, McClellan, arrived at Liverpool
on the _ sth, and left on the oth for London.
His decision is surprising. We should have
thought that it would have taken a week for
iiim to decide whither to go, and then anoth
er week to decide how to "go it. He was in
Paris at tlie last dates received, at the Hotel
<le I'Em/nre. He might Lave been at that
Hotel de l’Empire called the White House,
had he known how to win the title of Im
perator.
Gov. Low, of California, has by far the

count of wounds received or sickness con
tracted in the line of their duty.
Almost all the northern papers seem to
have a good word for Mr. Gilmore Simms,
the author of a number of novels which have
enjoyed a great popularity in their day. The
Boston Traveller says:
Mr. Gilmore Simms, the Southern novelist,
lost his library, of 10,000 volumes, through
the advance of our forces to Midway. He
had to run and leave it. He should have
sent it off before, but probably he shared that
common delusion which believed the Con
federacy invincible. We hope no harm was
done tiie library, and that it will fie restored
to him undamaged, as his novels are good,
and we of the North like to read them.

THIS CONFEDERATE TAX-BILE.
(From the Richmond Examiner, March SJ
» Both Houses of Congress succeeded yes
terday in passing a tax law. It levies a'tax
ot eight per cent on all property not express
ly taxed at a different rate ; on specie aud
biil of exchange twenty per cent, aud on
currency live per cent. The interest on gov
ernment bonds is taxed as income. Upon
profits made by buying aud selling merchan
dise ot property of any discretion, between
the years oi 18G5 and I8(!fi, a tax of ten per
cent is levied, in addition to the tux on such
profits as income, and upon all profits ex
ceeding twenty-five percent a tax*of twenty
five per cent is ordered. The property, the
income and moneys of hospitals, asylums,
schools and charitable institutions are ex
empt from taxation. All property within-the
lines of the enemy is to be exempt from tax
ation as long as it remains within such lines.
The taxes are made clue and are collected
ou the first day of June next, oue-liait to be
paid iu Treasury notes and the other-half at
the option of the party, in certificates of in
debtedness, without, any allowance of inter
est. It is also provided that uporr all sub
jects of taxation mentioned in this act and
the act approved the 17th of February,
18G4, there shall be levied for the vear ]B(i4
an additional tax equal to one-eighth of the
amount of tax on tlie same subjects imposed
for the year 1805, which tax shall be payable
iu Treasury notes ot tbe new issue, and the
money arising therefrom shall be first appro
priated to the payment of the increased
compensation of the soldiers, provided that
this additional tax shall not be construed to
apply to or increase the tax iu kind.
The foliow’ing important section is given
at length :-rr- **
Congress having intended that the act of
February 18th, 1804, a, amended by the act
