The Heralds Richmond special says John A. Gilmer yesterday deposited with General Schofield the charges and specifications against Lieutenant Colonel Thomas ltose, for misconduct in superintending the late election ia Richmond. The charges are four in number. First conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentlemen. Second for drunkenness on duty. Third disobedience of orders, iourth violation of the 99th Article of War. The names of upwards of one hundred citizens have been sent up as witnesses. An investigation of these charges and specifications will shortly take place, though it is not thought that a court martial will be ordered.

An affray occurred in Richmond this morninsr between Wash. Berry and Jesse White, iu which the latter was wounded in the neck by a pistol sh- t. Berry was arrested. The Herald's Washington special says: General Emery has issued an order disbanding all irresponsible military companies, black and white, organized in this district. This has been done under the special instruction of General Grant. Dr. J. W. Jjnes has been dispatched by Secretary McCulloch to take charge of the United States Mint at Charlotte, North Carolina. It will be used as an Ass ty Office hereafter. The Times' special says Gen. Sheridan, bein assured of the good conduct of Gen. Hayes, in the future, telegraphed Gen. Grant, recommending a disapproval of his removal as Sheriff. Mr. Bullitt then declining the appointment, Hayes was restored. The Secretary of the Treasury yesterday received offers from large houses in New York, for the purchase of 10-40 bonds in large lots, lie has decided not to accept them for the present, though it is quite certain that should he conclude to issue the twenty or twenty-oae millions which still remain unissued under the act of March, 1SG1, he would find for them a prompt sale at full prices. The Tribunes SDecial says: It is expected that the President will, duriug the present week, appoint a successor to Mr. Stanton, as Secretary of War. As yet no selection has been made, but it is believed the Executive is desirous of bringing into his Cabinet one who is as nearly as may be the type of the conservative sentiment of the people, as evinced in the recent elections. The World's special says: Representative Ashley will introduce, on the first day of the session, a bill to prevent the present Ohio Legislature from re-Districting the State so as to give the Congressional Districts to the Democrats in the election next year. Particulars of a Great Hur-cane.

Houses and Ship3 Destroyedt Fifty or Sixty Vessels Ashore, Stranded, Dismasted or Sunk. Many Lives and Much Property Lost. New York, November 11. By an arrival from St. Thomas we have particulars of a great hurricane, which lasted about finr hours, tearing up trees and lifting houses from their foundations and dashing them to pieces. Ships, steamers and smaller vessels were dashed together and sunk. Fifty or sixty vessels are ashore, dismasted or sunk. A great number of the crews are lost, aud thousands on land are homeless and suffering. The excitement is very great. It is impossible now to estimate the loss; it must be immense. On the morning of the 29th, there being indications of a storm, the passengers of the old steamer Conway did not feel safe to go to sea in her, and wished to be transferred to the Rhone, a new steamer of the line, where they might consider themselves Bafe in case of a storm. They were accordingly transferred, and both vessels put to sea, but during the storm the Rhone struck on Peter's Island, her boiler exploded, and all were lost with the exception of twelve or fifteen. The Conway was thrown on Tortila Island, and all hands were saved. Nothing definite in regard to the other Islands had been heard, with the exception of Tortila, of which, report says, that the town is totally destroyed and a number of lives lost. The steamer Columbia came in at 11 o'clock, and at 2 o'clock was sunk and six persons lost. Her carsro was valued at $1,000,000 to $2,000,000. The track of the hurricane seems to have been narrow, as the Marmion from Rio, and the . North America from New York, arrived the day after, and neither having experienced more than a stiff breeze. RICHMOND. Court Martial to Try Col. Rose The Robbing of ttaj. Butts Colored Citizens Disavow Incendiary Sentiments. Richmond, Nov. 11. Gen. Scofield to-day ordered a court martial to be held on the 18th inst. to try the case of Col. Rose, Conductor of Elections here. The Zt'spiteA has an account of the robbing of Maj. Butts, a former Bureau Agent, in King William County, by negroes. An attempt was made by the civil authorities to arrest the ring leaders, but the blacks had resisted and the military had been called for. The leading colored citizens will publish a card to-morrow disavowing the incendiary sentiments uttered by liindsay, tne colored delegate to the Convention. Havana, November 11.
