Lee's application for pardon, remarks: His application for pardon, if we are not mistaken, had been prepared, and was about to be transmitted to Washington, when a super-serviceable Judge, holding'a Federal Court at Norfolk, caused an indictment to be found against him, with a number of other distinguished gentlemen, for treason. Thereupon Gen. Lee, in? stead of f?rwa^fing his application to Washington,- enclosed it to General Grant, with a note calling Iiis atten? tion to what had been done at Nor? folk, and remarking that, if according to his (Gen. Grant's) understanding of the articles of capitulation, h? (Gen. Lee) was liable to indictment a*nd prosecution for treason, then he did not feel at liberty to make th? appli? cation fonpardon. But if Cxon-'Grant.'s understanding w:is the re?rse, then Gen. Lee would be obliged to him if he would forward the petition to the' President, Gen. Grant, if we have not boen misinformed, responded to GerrjwLee'%note promptly, und in the most* complimentary and friendly terms, enelo^ng a letter he had ad? dressed to Washington in forwarding the petition, taking the ground that, under the terms .of the surren? der, t?fce proceeding at Norfolk was whoUytfiKnadmissable. This, brought to a sudden close thc plan of Judge Underwood to make his-gunine immortal by associating it with a trial in which Robert E\ Lee oc? cupied the prisoner's dock, and at the same time brought Gen. Lee's petition before the President in*the mode most agreeable to himself and most honorable to his successful an? tagonist. ANOTHER OUTRAGE.-We learn from his son, the particulars of an outrage upon Mr. Monroe, of the house of Bulger, Hukill & Co. It seems that about 8 'i> o'clock, last night, while on his "v**?y hom*, when in the sandy lane below the old depot of the Ala? bama ?i?nd Florida Railroad,- two guards stepped out from a thicket and halted him. They demanded his pass to ke but at that hour. Mr. ; . Monroe then called to his son, who was in a buggy behind, to light a . match that he might find the paper demanded, when one of the guard raised b%i gun to shoot Mr. Monroe's son, but desisted at the instance of Mr.* Munroe. His son was ordered tofo on home, and Mr.'Monroe waf taken into the thicket about 150 yards from the road, whau they tied his hands behind him and robbed him of his purse, containing about twenty-five dollars. They further at? tempted to shoot him, which he pre? vented by throwing up the gun with . one of his arms, by which the arm re? ceived a severe . bruise. They ?lise stuck a bayonet in* his forehead and Shocking him senseless, left him foi ead. Mr. Monroe, when he eanie to, crawled as near as lie could to the Stonewall Hospital, when Jie cri?e; "mnreier," which brought some sol die? from tho "Hospital,'' one o whom being a Mason, ami recogniz ing a Masonic pin in Mr. Monroe'! shirt bosom, procured a hack and line him carried to fi is home. I Montgomery Ledger. -*--in Some laelies in London have starte? a periodical called the Attempt. ?3 THE DEVIL- ON TOP.-Under this heading,,yind in support of the state? ment involved, a Northern paper gives a list s of recent outrageous crimes. We extract cjne^rom ? num ber'bf tile same character, which cer? tainly constitutes an important link in the chain of proof. Under dote of the 10th it says' " 9 Early Monday morning1, at day? break, the hopse of Mrs. Sarah Ket chum, a respectable widow lady living at seve#y-seven West Fortieth street, New York, was entered by ruffians, who got into her bed-room, with the uvoVefl purpose of oittraging her daughter, a young^ladyo? remarkable beauty, who slept ^?th her mother. The daughter succeeded in escaping' in nor night clothes, arid sought refuge at a neighbor's, while the baffled scoundrels seized the motlier, choked her nearly to death, and committed an atrocious outrage. Afterwards, by threats of murder ' if she revealed it, they so intimidated her that upon the case coming np in coftrt she did not testify. Her friends', however, will endeavor to obtain a new trial, as some-of the rogues are known. ,m,_ ? Sandwich Island (?tes of August 16 give thirty as the total number of whaling vessels known to have been captured by the rebel pirate Shenan? doah in the North Pacific and Arctic Oceans up to the latest dates received,. No later captures, however, than those whose names we have already pulfe fished, are reported. Of theHhirty; twifcty-six wer? bumed an<?\:fo?r bonded.' ? riot took place among the colored people in Hampton. Va., last Mon? day night, which was quelled by a detachment from the First District of Coltfrjlbia Cavalry, uudei Lieut. \Y. H. Wonderry. Tw?nty-one ol the rioters were captured.' They - were all armed With revolvers, cutlasses and carenes, or shot guns.
