'Pendennis,' the Kew York Correspondent
of thc Charleston Courier, writes as follows,
under dale of July ll;
Three bold articles have appeared in the
Path/ News denouncing the military tri?
bunal as a set of murdere*?, and proposytg
to prosecute and (if convicted) to bang
them for deliberate murder. .The Sunda;/
Mercury, in an article beaded "Official
Mulder,'' speaks almost as plainly. The
Herald defends the commission, justifies
th? trial, conviction aud execution, and
?itches into the News in tine style aa the
leader of ''the rebel pi ess of New York."
The Kew? of today's issue slaps at the
Herald. ?
A very distinguished foreigner lins ar?
rived in this cityc There is no touch of
shoddy aristocracy about him; lie is really I
one of the "big "tish;" he calls on uo one, I
but receives visits from all classes of !
society. ?Strange to say, you are com- j
pelted to pay to see bim. The big fish is
ii "'whale from the coast of Labrador, and I
his headquarters are at Barnum's."
There is a beggar here, a cripple, who ]
has lost oue leg entire and Ibo uso of the j
"other. I see him every day on bis way to ;
and from the Centre] Park. Ile is said to j
be worth oSO.-OOO-a pretty rich beggnr.
Never before did crime stalk abroad so
boldly and fearlessly in this city as ii. Joes i
nt present. Murders; robberies, assaults
uro daily committed. The Herald says:
"The. very sidewalk? in open dny arc pit?
falls of death to those who may have
abont them a sum of money worth 6lea? j
iug,?a valuable watch or a diamond i
breastpiu. For three good rea.-o-.s. "Pen- j
dcDiiis" ij^rs not, but boldly perambulates .
the ride walka.
I liave had a conversation with an able j
financi? -, who suggests the following plan ,
for relieving the South: "Let the Legisla- '
lure (say of South Carolina) abolish the j
usury law, or at least insomuch as to allow I
.capitalists to loan money to the planters '
?on mortgages, charging something more
than the established rate of interest. This
will be an inducement to JSorthern e*piJ j
talista to invest their money South, The |
infce.est cnn be paid in cash, or an arrange- j
meet can be made to receive payment in |
the Cotton or rice that, is raised.:> So j
suggeeteth the "finaucisr," but there is a i
. little drawback, which is this, there is no
Legislaturein existence, and so relief must
come from another quarter.
AB President Johnson still refuses to
revoke the twenty thousand'dollar excep?
tion, I propose that all those who ar?
troubled in mind on account of th ??ir I
having anything over that amount should j
relieve their apprehensions by sending the
surplus to "Pendennis," who will receive
it to oblige them.
It is supposed that the Atlantic cable
will bc ready and in working order in |
about twenty days. When the circle !
around the earth is completed, nations l
in one part of the earth will be -able to j
Iiear in one day of events that took pince I
the-day nfter in another quarter. To ex- '?
plain; At 1 o'clock a. m.. August 1, I send
a messitge from Liverpool to a friend in ;
New York, informing bim of a certain [
event which bas just happened, lie re- j
ceives the message between the hours of j
9 and 10 p.- m. on July 31. What is time? I
Som*'iJea may be formed of Mr. Bar?
num's profits from the Museum establish?
ment, when it is stated that during the
eleven months e.'ling on May 31. the gross
receipts taken at tho door, amounted to
$280,351! Divided into quarte?, this will
give about twelve hundred and fifty thou?
sand visitors for'eleven months!
The last novoliv in fashionable .bonnets

"Madame de Z--'s bonnet consisted of

which fastened one end of the lace over
the other."

The Zouaves and the Late Disturb?
ances.
We regret to learn that the 165th Regi?
ment New York Volunteers, (Duryea's
Zouaves,) since the part taken by them in
the late disturbances, and their subsequent
removal to Morris' Island, have exhibited
a very unbecoming, if not mutinous, spirit
of insubordination.
The unsoldierly and - inexcusable con?
duct on the part of veterans, more parti?
cularly, called forth a peremptory order
from Gen. Gillmore, who, a veteran soldier
himself, exacts the strictest discipline of
bis command, taking aw33' the colors of
the Zouaves
In accordance with this order, Generals
Hatch and Bennett, accompanied by their
respectiva staffs, proceeded last week to
Morris' Island for the purpose indicated.
The order of Gen. Gillmore was read to
the Colonel in .command of the Zouaves,
and the colors demanded. The Colonel
refused to obey the order to deliver up bis
colors. He was thereupon piaced inclose
arrest, the order made known to the
secoyd -officer in command, and a similar
demand made upon him for thc colors.
This officer at first also cave a flat re?
fusal. To this Gem Hutch- explained to
bim the consequences of his refusal, and
defined the difference between disobedi
dice of orders, of which his superior
officer, the Colonel, liad boen guilty, and
mutiny, with which he, as the subordinate,
would be charged.
The officer, after this explanation, pro?
mised to deliver the cobos. The guard
was formed, and marched to tho boat, but
upon reaching it wore found to be in pos?
session of the staffs and rubber, but no
colors. The ruse did not succeed. On its
dim-uvery, Gen. Bennett wa? ordered by
Gen. Hatch to take a detachment of lb?
.17th l^nnsvlvania Retriment and disarm ;
the wb'le Zouave Regiment. The. regi?
ment was marched info Fort Wagn?r, toe
guns having been previously Ioaded*.with
grape, and canister, and trained on thu
parada ground. The parapet was manned
\>y the -17th Pennsylvania Regiment, and a
detachment of the 3d Rhode Island Artil
lery. Their orders were ir. the case of an j"
resistance to fire on the mutinous.troops.
The Zouaves, seeing all farther opposi?
tion useU-ss, quietly stacked their arms and
marched out of the fort, The officers and
men were marched, under guard, on bo.ard
a steamer, winch conveyed them to Fort
Sumter, there to, expiate, under a broil- I
ing sun, the crime of reftistnnce to consti
tuted authority.-Charleston. Courier, lS?/?.
A letter says that true loyalty is scarce
in Galveston, even now, while soldiers
patrol the streets and powerful fleets are 1
anchored off the city. The narrow- j
minded and impoverished people cling to ,
the idea of State independence. They
want to fly the lone star flag once more,
and to subdivide the country into four
States and become a recognized power in j
the world.

Great Fire in New York.
RICHMOND, Jul}- l l-10 p. ru.-Washing?
ton papers of to-day bring accounts of a
most disastrous conflagration, which oc?
curred in New York, yesterday forenoon,
about 10 o'clock:
The fire commenced in Barnum's Mu?
seum building, corner of Broadway and
Park Row, and diagonal Iv opposite t he
Astor House. It is supposed to have been
caused by the explosion of some pyrotech?
nics, which had been prepared for use in
some dramatic performances in the thea?
trical department of the building. The
flames spread with great rapidity to every
portion of the bouse, producing terror and
consternation among the inmates, and
completely paralyzing all efforts to cneck
the raging element.
The Museum building was very tall
some four stories in height.-and serious
apprehensions were entertained from the
first, that all the valuable buildings iu the
entire block would be destroyed.
The Herald newspaper buildings, on the
North-west corner of Fulton and Nassau
streets, of great, height, and very valuable,
were completely destroyed, along with the
grenfer portion of its types, piesses, ?.fcc.
The buildings on Ann street wei? occu?
pied chiefly ns print ?neofTTces in the upper ?
portions, and many publishers nnd printers I
were thrown out, of employment-.
The total los- is estimated at from
$1,750,000 to $2,00n,u0c!
The Herald buildings were erected some
fiftien orsixteen years ago, at considerable !
expense. They were complete in all
respects for the prosecution of the gigantic
business for which they were originally
designed.
Barnum's losses are very heavy and well ?
nigh irreparable. Ile had recently encoun?
tered great* expense in preparing for the I
gorgeous spectacular pantomimes of 'The |
Green Monster, or the White Knight and j
Giant Warrior." All the hew and splendid
scenery, costumes, etc., were destroyed.
The two living white whales, captured and
brought to New York from the coast of
Labrador, nnd exhibited iri ri mammoth
class tank, were burnt. A living alligator
twenty feet long, his vast collection of
fish, birds, dowers, etc., were also burnt.
His mar y wax figures, living otters, seals,
menagerie of living animals, monster
python and a thousand other curiosities
were all swallowed up by the devouring
element. The fat woman, (a mountain td'
flesh.} was saved, with great difficulty; a
few articles of minor importance were
saved.
Che account, represents that the fire
was occasioned by som ! experiments in
chemicals, which were ben;.: made by
Prof. Cosperess, the great, philosopher and
magician, who was announced for a grand
exhibition at ll o'clock.
