GEN. CANBY AND THE FEDERAL COURTS.—Gen. Canby, it appears by official correspondence, says the Washington correspondent of the New York World, has rather a mixed state of affairs in his dealings with the processes of the United States Courts, in the execution of judgments for debt. He has in no wise modified nor suspended Gen. Sickles' Order No. 10, but acts independently on each case which arises under it. Where he finds that a debtor is endeavoring to cheat his creditor, he will allow a sale to take place; but there is good reason for stating that where he believes that the execution of the judgment of the court will impoverish the people, he will interfere, as did Gen. Sickles, and prevent the sale.
