St. Loci?, May 6, iB6O, J. H. Blackburn, alias Dr. Tumblety, charged with complicity with Harold in the assassination and Conspiracy, was arrested here to-day In accordance with orders from the War Department. The New York Herald says : A man known as J. H. Blackburn, alias Dr. Tumblety, was arrested in St. Louis yes terday, by order of the War Department, on suspicion of complicity in the great Wash ington assassination plot. He is said to have been formerly on intimate terms with Booth and Harold. This Dr. Tumblety is probably the individual who, it will be ’remembered by the people of this city and Brooklyn, formerly nourished here under the title of the “Great Indian Herb Doctor," and who made himself conspicuous wherever he ap peared by the astounding ‘ioudness’’ of his apparel, the immensity of his nicely waxed mustache, and the dignified stride with which he moved along the street. • He was usually “dressed within an inch of his life,” and a little beyond the extreme of fashion. He was decidedly the biggist “swell” which the town contained, and when he appeared in the Park for his regular airings he never failed to create a sensation. Poverty of the People of Virginia Late Richmond despatches show .the terrible state of impoverishment in which ihe people of Virginia are nowfouudto be, and to which tliey have been reduced by the drafts of the drafts of tire rebel military estatiiishmeut on their resources of all kinds. Thousands of the Inhabitants of Richmond; Petersburg and the surrounding country are preserved from starvation only by the supplies of food which the United States commissaries furnish them. Strong desires are expressed for the removal by government of ali re9trictiQiis on trade not contraband of war, so that facilities may be afforded for a resuscitation .of industry, byth in the towns and rural districts. At present the farmers generally are without the implements and 3ceds necessary to do their planting, and unless these cafi be speed ily procured there will lie no crops forthcom ing in the State in the summer and fall. Frenchmen are talkiug about - introducing rowing matches on the Seine, similar to those on the river Thames and in thJscountiy. Early blossoms give an encouraging bint lor the fruit season, it the frost dyes not dis turb then)- They arc at least three weeks iu advance of previous years. The blossoming is very profuse. • ' A sexton in Bowdou, Eng., while attenipt lng to adjust the grave Os a deceased lady, was buried alive by the caving of the earth. He was) rescued with great difficulty. It is said that the deed buried in the coffin of the maker, in Scotland, to wiiich we al .luded a week or two since, lias been found, and the claim of worthy parties been estab lished thereby. The colored people of Washington are about to erect a literary aud scientific insti tution. Irish papers mention that elopements from Cork to America have been very common lately among the sons and daughters of well todb farmers. An Amsterdam speculator has built a con cert hall which will seat eight thousand peo ple. ■ A mechanic named Muller, a wonderful tenor, is being educated of the expense of the hang of Hanover Slavery is to be abolished in the Spanish colonies, and movements are already on toot m Spam to effect it. nJd!

HIGHLY IMPORTANT. The &am Stonewall in American Waters. THE TKIAE COMMENCED. From the Bahamas. A T£IUUBLE STORM. GENERALS SHERNAff AID HALLEC&. Surrender of kirby Smith Momentarily Expected. MARKETS, BUSINESS, etc. [We are indebted to Purser Robt. H. Owen of the steamship America, for files ot the latest New York papers. The news is im portant and highly interesting j The Ram Stonewall in American Waters. The rebel ram Stonewall has at last made her appearance in American waters. She ar rived at Nassau, in the Bahamas, on the 6th inst., from Teneriffe, whence she sailed on the Ist of April. One of the correspondent, at Nassau visited her incognito, and furnishes a most interesting description of what he saw on board. Siie is a formidable vessel, strong-, ly iron-plated, with two stationary turrets, three heavy guus, and a solid steel pointed beak of twenty feet in length, lor ramming, [injecting from her bow: ' Altogether she is considered a very staunch and dangerous antagonist. Her entire crew, officers and men, numbers about seventy, and everythin* about her presented the appearance of the best man-of-war order, neatness and rigid discipline. The tJtonewall’s officers, raahy of whom were on shore, sporting their rebel uniforms in the streets ot Nassau, acknowledged that they were too late in getting afloat to be of any service to the Jeff Davis cause, and ad mitted that the war is ended. They said she was originally intended to break the Wil mington blockade, but that now, as she could be of qo use to the rebels here, she would probably be taken back to Europe and sold. She was to leave Nassau on the evening of the 7th inst, having .obtained a supply of coal. One report said she was bound lor Galveston; hut others gave her a different destination. It was understood that our Consul at Nassau, immediately after the arrival of the Stonewall at that place, des patched a fast vessel for Key West, Fin., w ith the intelligence. The Trial of the Conspirators. The trial of the assassination conspirators in Washington is proceeding; but the re porters for the press are still excluded from its sessions, ami theieforc little regarding it can be learned. It is believed, however,that the authorities will soon permit certain por tions of the evidence to be daily made pub lic. Several of the accused have succeeded in securing counsel. Sherman's Army in Richmond. Though it was expected that there would be a graud review of Sherman’s army on the occasion of its passage through Richmond, none took place, owing to the bad feeling between Generals Sherman and Halleck, generated, it is understood, by the proceed ings of the latter in countermanding the or ders of the former to his subordinates during the truce with Joe Johnston. On the arrival of the Sixth Corps at Dan ville, Va., the negroes were so rejoiced that they commenced to desert the plantations in alHbe surrounding country, and flock into the town. This so secionsly interfered with the prosecution of agricultural labor that General Wright deemed it necessary to issue an order instituting regulations to put a stop to this hegira of the negroes, and requiring them to remain at home and attend to their usual work. General Wright has also warn ed all guerrillas and paroled rebel soldiers who break their paroles that they will be im mediately hung when caught. From the Bahamas. The glory has eutirely departed from the little pesthole of the Bahamas, Nassau, since ♦he close of the blockade running business. Everybody wbo can get away is leaving goods intended to run Uie blockade are daily being auctioned off at merely nominal prices, and the principal hotel of the place has closed for want of business. Eight former blockade running steamers were laid up there on the 7th inst., entirely out of emplov ment. J The assassination of President Lincoln was announced to the Colonial Legislature of the Bahamas by the Governor in a message ex pressing regret at the event and censure of the act; whereupon the legislators unani mously adopted appropriate resolutions. A Terrible Storm. The violent wind and ruin storm with which we were visited on Tuesday evening extended oyer a considerable stretch of country-, doing gr-at damage in some local ities Its effects were much more severe at places both east and south of this ci*v than here, houses being unroofed, walls, trees and fences blown down, and a number of people seriously injured. In Philadelphia it was particularly destructive. At Albany there has been another great rise in the ‘Hudson * u -Consequence of the heavy rains of Wednesday and Thursday. • * Slwnaon and Haileck. currently reported that yester day General Haileck called on General Sherman at his quarters in Richmond, but the General refused to see him.— Gen Haileck stated that his object was to explain and apologize for the language he had used toward Gen. Sbmnan in his despatches to Mr. Stuntou. Geu. Sherman has hereto fore been the only friend and defende of Gen. Haileck among the higher officers of the army. ; ... The officer? of Gen. Sherman are arriving in considerable numbers. The greater part of that army will l*e at, Alexandria by Mon day or Tuesday-. They all express much indignation at the ofliclAl and newspaper strictures on Gen. Sherman’s first arrange ment ior Gen. Johnston’s surrender. They say it was entirely uncalled for in view of the great services rendered by that army, and that the arrangement was in strict coutbrini* ty to President Lincoln's views and policy. Gen. ii-lrby Smith. Gen. Grant remarked to-day that he was momentary expectation of hearing from Kirby Smith. He had little doubt that he surrender upon ihe same terms as u,.i^ri CCOr< l et L l 0 k ee * Johnston and Taylor, thnt received official notification Smith was in negotiation with our force* with a view to a surrender. The Markets, Business, etc. The stock market was firm yesterday morning, but lower during the re 3t of the day. Governments were quiet. Gold w’as excited, and, after selling up to 133 1-2, clos ed down town at 130 3-4. The closing price lor gold in the evening was 130 ~>-S. The rise in gold imparted a firmer feeling to every department of trade yesterday, and there was a very general though moderate advance in the price of merchandise, both foreign and domestic. Business was mode rate, however, the merchants, as a general thing, preferring to await a more settled state of affairs before operating to any great ex tent. Cotton was steady, while flour was more active and sc. higher. Wheat was firmer, while oats were lc. a 2c. higher, and com was dull and unsettled. Pork was firmer, while beet was steady. Lard was more active and firmer. Freights Were dull. Wheat was steady. [Washington Correspondence of the Philadelphia In quirer.) * Arrangements for the Trial of the Con shrators.-Charges and specifications against (he leading conspirators have been finally preferred, and the testimony pretty well ar ranged. The trial was to have opened on Monday morning, but on the court partially' assembling it was found that another day or tw T o were needed to complete some of the arrangements of the Judge Advocate. The trials are to be iu the penitentiary building at the arsenal, where the criminals are now confined in chains and in separate cells. A large room in the second story has been fitted up for the court room. It is large euough to hold three hundred persons, and is iu the northwest corner of the building, and has four windows, covered with grated iron bars. The room has a high ceiling, and, except the tables, chairs and tualtiug upon the floor, and a half dozen benches, is per fectly plain. The walls are white, the whole building having been newly renovated. No maps, pictures or anything is to be seen save, the hastily coustructed pine furniture needed by the court. Judge Advocate Holt will preside at the court, which will be ranged arouud a lon<r table upon the north side of the room. Par allel to it will be the tables for the official reporters, who will be sworn, and reduce the testimony each day to writing. Next to the plionographers is a table for the benefit of counsel, should any appear. It is not known that any have been engaged, although there is a rumor that several eminent democratic politicians have refused to serve. Judge Holt will be aided by Judge Bing ham, of Ohio, and Judge Burnett, both skill ful lawyers. It is said that the Secretary of War is tho roughly conversant with the whole testimony; and that the cases have been prepared under his eye. Major General Hartruff has command of the jail and its surroundings, and his dispo sitions are such that it would be impossible for any attempt to get possession of the pris oners ly a mob to succeed. His forces are encamped just outside the outer walks, while thick cordons of sentries suriound the red brick building which con fines the wretched criminals, who, in chains, with mufflers over their heads, are already undergoing a living death. They are not allowed any comunication with the outside world, and the guards who feed them are not allowed to converse with them upon any pre tence. The padded masks covering their entire bead, except the mouth, are put on to pre vent them from committing suicide. A sen tinel over each one attends"to them day and night. All are very much dejected, and fear that at any moment they may be executed by the people. It is most likely that three of Ford's thea tre employees will have to die, as it seems pretty clear that they aided Booth materially iu the execution of his dreadful murder.— Ford, the proprietor, i9 still in the Old Capitol, but, so far as I can learn, is not im plicated. The theatre is still under guard by the military. No one can enter except bv the permit ol the Secretary of War. It remains just as it was the night ot the assassination. No newspaper reports will be permitted, Bor will the testimony and progress of the trial be made public. Quarters and accommodations for the en tire court and reportei s are prepared at the jail, and they will probably remain there dur ing the trials. By Wednesday morning the machinery will be ail in motion, and the caaes be pushed rapidly on. Payne, thev assassin of Seward, will prob ably be the first tried. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.
