The Judgement Rendered in the Cam
of the Alexandre.
Ii tins alteady bf*t*n announced that anew
trial had been refused in the case of the ship
Alexandra, in FiUglaiul, which was a decis
ion in lavoror ihe Confederates, and that
the Attorney General intimated his intt-n
--lion to take an appeal.
The following is the judgement rendered
in the case by the Lord’Chiel Baron, ia the
Court of tire Exchequer;
He said the present was an information
against the ship Alexandra, charging that
the defendants, with others, had been guil
ty ofa violation of he Foreign Enlistment
act. 'Pile Alexandra had been built and
partly rigged ;»t Liverpool, and seized by
an officer of the customs for a breach of
the act alluded 10. The defendants joined
issue and pleaded that the ship was not
forfeited. The information charged the de»
fendants with every possible violation of
the act as to the furnishing, equipments,
&e, but said nothing about arming. The
question arose whether that established the
warlike character of the vessel. It was
urge and ihat the vessel was not adapted for j
warlike purposes, and although it might
be used as a yacht, it was doubtless intern*
ded to be used by the Confederate States
of Am l io-i against a power with which her
Majesty was friendly. It was also urged
that there wa:ftui intention to sell to one
ol the belligerents the null of a vessel suit
able tor wmi but unarmed, but to do any
warlike act whatever was a violation-
ILs direction to ihe jury was that in such
a c.ifce the defendants were neither within
the iiiearmig of the act but if the commerce
of this country in ships, for peace or war,
was to continue, and a ship left tiie ports of
this country in a condition to cruise out or
to commit hostilities, thought it might be of
a warlike character, he should hold lliat
there had been i.o violation of the statute,
and tha! the verdict ot the jury was right.
This was the substance of the case between
the crow n and the defendant—stripped of
all technicalities. The learned judge went
at some length into the nature ot hisdiiec-
Ut n to itm jury at the trial, in the course
of which lie stated that if the ship had not
been equipped, furnished, and fitted out,
the case did not come within the meaning
of the act, and there had been no violation
ot the statue. There had been no direct
evidence that it was intended ic arm the
Alexandra in any Bruish port for tbe pur
pose of cruising or committing hostilities;
indeed, there was no charge in the infor*
mation on the subject of arming at all. He,
however, left the question to the jury iu the
terms of the act of Parliament, and they
found a verdict for the defendants, on which
the attorney general obtained a rule nisi tor
anew trial. Cause was shown during
term, and the arguments lasted six days.—
The various charges in [lie information con
sisted of ninety eight counts. The first
eight counts were repeated twelve times,
varying the charges of cquioping, furnish*
ing, iii ting out. He, thus making ninety
six counts. The Attorney General had, in
fact, stated i.li.uL ihe first eight counts rep*
rese.i tej all the rest. Tire charges, there—
fme, resolved themselves into what wan
meant by furnishing, equipping, etc , with
intent. The question then arose which
was the true construction of the Foreign
Enlistment Act, and what was meant by
tiie j rohil"ition to crush or to commit boss
rilit-ies The learned judge quoted from
Black stone to show that judges were bound
lade, id** such eases according to the strict
letter of tin* law. The insii iUions of the
country, he believed, were never more se
cure than now, but he thought the country
con'd nrrer afford to lose any of the
ground' of security.
Tire learned judge then pr. needed to in*
quire what was the real interpretation of the
words used in the statute, and h»-ld that
unless the alleged etime was plainly within
the tt itno Ihe court ought to decline to in
terfere. Io his judgement it was not within
tire Maine, and that ii was never content*
plated ttv those who flamed the law. He
thought that he might decline I al it was
law lul to Imild ships in tin- country; even
for warlike purposes. NtT.bmiding was
one of iiie nul-t i.upoiiani of our industrial
pure nils, and the building ot skips, even for
warlike purposes, was not unlawful, ptovi
dvd th :t they were not equipped, turmshed
nr tilted out in our ports, with ihe intent
stated ui the act. Reverting to the For
eign E li-ioie'.'l sc , Ihe learned judge said
they were familiar in Westminister Hall
wit.il toe phrase, "to drive a coach and eix
tluougii an act ol Parliament.”
It would not, lie thought, ho ditli.;iilt to
aatl a whule 11. ot ot ships through Ihe act,
so clumsily was it constructed. With rc
-B|)ecl lo the rule, he was of opinion that
uoiio of tha giO;iiidt= on winch it was ap*
idied lor wn to mariiT out, and ihat She rule
ougi-i, ifit-*! elorv, l"r a now trial, lo be dis
charg'd,
Bamn B-arnwvil thought that tho act
ought no! i.t la- ma »• t<> e.xft’iid to anything
which aa* not clcaily witniii ite meaning.

vvas the intention of the LugUJa'ure; but

strouion put by the crown upon the act

Richmond, Feb. 15.
Ia both.HouEes of Congress this morning leave
was granted the Conference Committee on .tbe
military, tax and cimenoy bills, to meet and
finish their labors daring the session of either
body. It is understood that .the Conference
Committee have agreed on the military and cur
rency bills and ’will report to<morrow.
It is believed the currency bill provides that
the notes now iu circulation shall be all funded
in a speoifiod time and a nsw issue made, with
a guarantee that it shall never exceed a fixed
amount; sufficient only to supply the country
with a healthy circulating medium, and the
Government heieaftor to be supported by taxa
tion and sale of bonds.
The House adopted a resolution that the pres
ent Congress expires at 12 o’olook on the 18th
inst Also passed a bill doubling the time for
which under existing laws, soldiers may be
furloughed from hospitals, and a bill author
izing the promotion of privates in the field to va*
oancies in any office, who have distinguished
themselves by gallantry and skill, and a bill to
establish a general War Department West of
the Mississippi.
Also, a bill to repeal the law authorising Par
tisan Rangers and disband all such organisation a
except those now performing regular cavalry ser
vice. Both Houses passed a resolution of thunks
to Gen. Kirby Smith and men for the victory
at Richmond Ky., and others. Beth Houses
also passed the impressment bill. It retains the
provision for State Commisaioners to fix prices.
Tbe Senate passed the bill declaring that ab

The Front.
Mystery, impenetrable to the ken of military
experience, hangs over the movements of the
enemy in Mississippi. If he was ooming here
by a forced maroh, with his food on the baoks
of his soldiers, he ought by this time to be with
in hailing distance of oar pickets. A few more
days will be fatal to that celority of movement
which te the first condition of its success. Yet we
can bear of no Yankee soldier south of the
Southe'n Railroad. What then can be bis ob
joc:? To march northeast towards Coiumbas,
or directly east to Demop'dis and Selma ? There
is no conceivable objeot adequate to the peril.
He will find corn, to be sure, and some meat to
live upon—bat mills are needful to convert coin
into food for man, and of ooaree the “Rebels”
won't leave him their mills. Without innumem
able cavalry to guard and forage for him, he
will soon eat oat any neighborhood he ocou*
pies, and therefore cannot remain still. Does he
propose to go through to Northern Georgia and
flank Johnston, while Grant assails him ia front?
Thun why did he leave Corinth and North Mis
si-sippt to oomo down hundreds of miles to
Vicksburg, to begin that march ? He has left
desolation behind him, and his rear open. This
shows that ho has an objective point in front,
aa i no thought of returning the same way he
came. The whole thing is involved in mystery,
and that mystery is as deep, apparently, in the
mind of Gen. and the authorities, as it is
with its and tho other outside observerers. A
few days must develops the enemy's object.
Meantime, lot us makeup our minds to prepare
for and resist him whenever he appears and
whatever devilish purpose he has in view—[Mo-
