AN ENGINE COMPANY DISBANDED. -- The Board of Commissioners of the New-York Fire Department held a special meeting at Firemen's Hall on Tuesday evening last, for the purpose of investigating the charges made by Hose Company No. 19 against Engine Company No. 47. The complaint was that on several occasions Engine Company No. 47 ran Hose Company No. 19 into the sidewalk, thereby breaking up their rope and endangering the lives and limbs of those who were on it. The case was a very important one, and was very thoroughly investigated. Ex-Judge PHILLIPS appeared on behalf of Engine Company No. 47. The board examined over 60 witnesses, and did not adjourn until 2 o'clock in the morning. It is said that after the trial was over the members of Engine Company No. 47 attacked the members of Hose Company No. 19, and that some of them were beaten very badly. On Wednesday the board held a special meeting and announced their decision which is as follows: "Ordered, That Engine Company No. 47 be disbanded, and that MICHAEL DWYER, Assistant Foreman, be expelled from the Department." The Board of Commissioners have acted very promptly in this matter, and deserve the thanks of the public as well as of the department. The firemen, generally, will support them in their action, and uphold them for the fearless manner in which they administer justice. The firemen are a noble set of men who thoroughly dislike and discourage all such actions, and it would be a pity for the department to suffer from the actions of a few men.

THE FATAL AFFRAY IN THE SIXTH WARD. -Coroner NAUMANN held an inquest yesterday, at the Sixth Precinct Station House, on the body of THOMAS MCGOWAN, who died on Wednesday morning, from the effects of injuries inflicted by his partner PATRICK BRENNAN. The testimony given went to show that while the two were engaged in a quarrel, BRENNAN seized a pane of common window glass, twelve by fourteen inches in size, and struck his partner on the left side of the head. A small piece of the glass went entirely through the skull, ruptured a blood-vessel and penetrated the brain. The jury rendered the following verdict: "We find that THOMAS MCGOWAN came to his death by compression of the brain, from a blow with a pane of glass in the hands of PATRICK BRENNAN." The latter yesterday gave himself up to the authorities of the Sixth Precinct. When asked the usual questions, he said that he was 28 years of age, native of Ireland, lived at No. 155 Second-street, Williamsburgh, and a peddler by occupation. He further said that MCGOWAN abused him and called him names, and struck him some blows. He said, "I am not guilty." The Coroner committed him to the Tombs to await an indictment by the Grand Jury.

Richmond files from March 15 to March 21, inclusive, were received yesterday. The papers discuss the prospects of the opening campaign with their usual bitterness, and draw highly rose-colored conclusions as to what the results will be. They affect to believe that the strength of the National Army is soon to be greatly reduced, and draw much consolation from this belief -- a thing which we can very safely encourage them in. GRANT is spoken of with contempt, though the undeniable fact of his enormous successes in the West is reluctantly confessed. In brief, the rebel papers are at their old work of bolstering up their sinking cause by holding out false hopes, and while so doing, comes an ominous movement from Georgia, hitherto one of the most radical of the seceded States, whose Governor, State Legislature and press propose to test the validity of the late sweeping acts of the rebel Congress by the action of Georgia's own courts, particularly the act suspending the habeas corpus. The war news is not important. The released rebel prisoners had been received with an ovation, including speeches by JEFF. DAVIS and Gov. SMITH. Gen. JOE JOHNSTON's report of the disastrous rebel operations in Mississippi last summer, is printed, in which he throws the whole blame upon Gen. PEMBERTON. The rebels profess to be rapidly reparing the damage done to Mississippi railroads by Gen. SHERMAN. Another raid by Gen. AVERILL was feared, and the rebel Gen. JONES had gone into Kentucky by way of an unfrequented gap to try another raid.
