The bill relative to the transportation of the mails over railroads was adopted. The consideration of the case of Mississippi was resumed, when a long and acrimonious debate took plaoe. Marshall said that the De? mocrats did not oppose the bill from any love of military governments, but preferred even that to banding over the unfortunate people to the tender meroies of a set of robbers who re? presented no people, but merely sought to prey on tbe people of Mississippi.

IT UV XTLi ISLE." A SPANISH OUtRAGE IN NEUTRAL WATERS. REIGN OF TERROR IN HA VA NA. Foll Particular* ot the Captare or the American Brig Mary Lowell h jr a Spaniah Man-of-war-Bloody Work at Havana-Terrible Excitement among the Populace-Violent Scenes on Palm Sunday-M u r u e r ? and Execution* Dulce's Cowardly Conduct. Tho Havana o ^respondent of tho New York Wotld, writing under date of March 2?th, aays: Tho British gunboat Cherub oftrco inte pert yesterday evening from Nassau, N. P., and brought news of sena tional importance, since they toll of a great insult to ana outrage upon the American and British nigs by a Spanish man-of-war. I have told you of an American sailin r vessel having Bhipped on arms and ammunition and a number of Cuban passengers from an American steamer, tbat had been disabled in her ma? chinery, at or near Nassau, and of her having put into Ragged Island port, Bahamas, whore she was closely watched by a Spanish man-of-war, the Andalusia. By the arrival of tao British schooner Margaret, at Nassau, from Bagged Island, the startling announce? ment was conveyed that the ve ?sel in question had been captured in an English port of entry by-the Andalusia, in direct violation of inter? national and .british laws. By the Margaret there came as passenger to Nassau Mr. Walter Wilson, the Customhouse offio9r at Ragged Island, who had had charge of the Amei ion u brig Mary Lowell, the vesdel in question? in the capacity of pilot un i customhouse officer, for a per od ot eighteen days, and who bad the hatchways sealed down with the seal of ber Majcstv's customs. To one of the officers of the gunboat Cherub I am indebted for the fol? lowing copy of Mr. Wilson's official report of the capture of the Mary Lowell, he having been on board of ber at the time : Oa the afternoon of the 15th, at about 4-20 P. M., I was in the act of removlug the brig Maty Lowell J rom Man of-war Anchorage to a safer place known aa the "Harbor," when I was ordered to heave to and lower my sails by the commander of the Spanish gunboat Andalusia, who, flnuTag that 1 did not do so at ouco, gave tho order three tim-p, ina loud voice, to fire into us. Upon this 1 immediately hove to, when a boat came alongside containing fifteen men, well armed, under the command of two officers, one of whom demand-d perml^siou to como on board. I replied that he might o o so as a private individual, but not in an official capacity, upon which he came on board. We bad not, however, been in conversa? tion more than a minute or so, when an order from the captain of the gunboat was given to the men in the boat to board the brig, which they accordingly did, and immediately took formal possession of the vessel. I miy here mention that the order, three times given, to fire into us, wss prevented from bting carried into execution by au officer who placed his hand on the csp of the gun to prevent ita being fired. I remonstrated with the officer who bearded me (who, by the way, could epeak English fluently) in as energetic a manner a* was consistent with my duty, asking him whether he was aware of the illegality and gravity of the aot which he was about to com-, mit, and whether he knew that the brig Mary Lowell under my charge was an American vessel, and tbat she was in British waters and under British protec? tion, and, moreover, that I was an offioer in the om- j ploy of her Majesty's government of the Bahamas, to whioh he replied, "that he was only obeying the orders of his superior officer." He then ordered me to get into the boat and go on board the gunboat, as the commander wanted to see mo. I thon, with the six men that were with me in the brig-four of whom belonged to her. and tue other two ol whom I had brought irom the shore-got into the. boat and pro? ceeded to the Spanish man-of-war. On going on board I asked the captain what hin intentions were, and what he wanted -with me, to whioh he simply replied that I matt at once go on shore. To enable me to do BO, he gave me the boat belonging to tho Mary Lowell, in which my brother, George W. Wilson who waa on board of the man-of-war, together with myself and the two men from the shore, reached the land. The other four men belong? ing to the brig, who wore all British subjects, were detained as prisoners on board the spanish gunboat. During the entire of the above proceedings, as nar? rated by me. the American flag was firing front the main deck of the brig, uut.U I wan obligou to lower my sails, when lt was earned to ibo doa of the ves? sel and lipread over the nul. On our leaving the Mary Lowell, the American flag wa? removed, and almost immediately afterwards tie brig was made fast to the gunboat, whicb proceeded with her to sea In a southwesterly direction. Tu?) captain of the Mary Lowell had loft her at Hagged Island sometime before the capture of the vessel, and ber Cuban passengers had all gone off ishore, many of whom came back to Nassau in the sohooner Margaret with Cus? tomhouse Offioer Wilson. The good people of Ragged Uland were thrown into a high state of excitement by the c ip turo and consequent insult to their flag, and have sworn vengeance against Spaniards, and the first Spanish ves? sel tb ai. puts into their port is likely to cet a warm reception. Io Nassau the capture also created no sma'l excitement. Governor Walker at once pronoun ced it an outrage, wan? ton aod unpardonable in its nature and execu? tion, whioh demands prompt and vigorous meas? ures in vindication of the honor and integrity of the British Empire. With this view of the case, his Excellency forthwith prepared dis? patches for the home government, and sent them to Havana by the Cherub fer telegraphic transmission. Her Britannio Majesty's Con Bul-Qeneral here, the Hon. James Graham Dunlop, has taken the matter of the capture in hand with steal .and energy. Yesterday evening he was to have had an Interview with Captain-General Dulce on the subject. The capture of the Mary Lowell is likely to lead co serious diplomat.o complications between Great Britain aud (Spain, in whioh the Ameri? can Government will necessarily have to take a part against the hitter power. The same correspondent writes 'under date ot the 23d ult. as follows : On Sunday evening a government transport left for Fernando Po with two hundred and twenty-five political prisoners on board, hav? ing for escort the war frigate Lealtad. Until within a day or two of this, four hundred pris? oners bad been selected to ga, but representa? tions made to Captain-General Dolce induoed him on Friday to reduce the number, and re? tain one hundred and forty-five of the prison? ers for fuller consideration of their cases. The two hundred and twenty-five who went were embarked from Fort Cabanas, and Although very many of them belonged to the first classes of society, embracing wealthy sugar and to? b?ceo planters, able jurists, talented lawyers, Sirofessors and physicians, merchants of note, ervent priests and affluent bankers, all were taken on board, ironed and ohained. Their embarkation was witnessed by several thous? ands of persons assembled on the wharves. Most of the spectators were Spaniards, attract? ed there bj curiosity, and to rejoice over the misfortune of the embarking prisoners. All the prisoners had been embarked before halt- past one P. M., <ind the vast crowd had began to leave the wharves when a very re? spectable Spanish merchant, Senor Veguier, (an officer of volunteers but then dressed in citizen's clothes), caught a man trying to piok his pockets, and bad Lim arrested. The crowd noticed this, and some one having wickedly stated that the man was arrested for shouting. Muera Espa?a! (Death to Spain 1) a general demand tor hts life was made, and ories of "Shoot him ! kill bim I " rt sounded on all sides. Just then a half-witted Cuban, named Fran? cisco Noy, who is known by a thousand per? sons to be an irresponsible being, defiantly re? sponded to the cries of the Spaniards with the shoud of Viva C?spedes! Muera Espana! He was immediately knocked down, and would have been killed on the spot had not the.courageous Deputy-Commissioner Romero, who knew th a man, rescued him aud then started with bim and the pickpocket for tbe pri? son. Tho crowd followed the Deputy-Com? missioner, shouting and yelling like demons, and increasing in number every second. ? Ar? rived in front of the barracks that adjoin the city governor's palace and face toward the Placa de Armas, the deputy commissioner re? alized that his prisoners would soon be taken from bim and killed if he continued any fur? ther, so he had tbe barrack gates opened to him: passed in with the prisoners beyond the jard, and soon lodged them safely within one of the rooms cf the barr ?oks. ?b? orowu fol? lowing endeavored to also enter tho y ?rd. but the sentinels at the gate wore too qutott for them, and ino seeded in shutting them ont. Hundreds of men thereupon began scaling the iron fence, but were intimidated from going, over bj the offioer on du'y within, who placed two comp mies in line of battle in front of the fence, and thus kept the crowd on tbs outer side. Unable to reach the men whose blood they thirsted tor with tiger-like ferocity, Ute thousands of Spaniards forming Ute mob, shouted and yelled louder than ever, every minute hundreds being added to their ranks. The d ty was Palm Sunday. Most, of the mob bad attended church that morning, and borne off palm loaves, and other loaty emblems, whioh are in all countries given that day to at? tendants at Catholic services. Many of the infuriated mon still bore these palm loavos and leafy emblems in their bands, and gesticulated wildly with them. The crowd in front ot the barracks and <he Oity Governor's Palace soon became immense, and filled also in part the Plaza de Armas. General Dulce repaired to the barracks, and at the same time the officer on duty at the Captain General's palace detached a part of the guard thoro to clear the plaza of the crowd. This order was not lo bo fulfilled without bloodshed. One of the men in tho plaza, who was not participating in the riotous demon? strations, was rather slow in leaving, so one of the guards (a volunteer of tho second batta? lion! struck him aside blow with his gua to accelerate his pace ; but this had a contrary clicct, the man getting angry and remonstra? ting witb tho volunteer. This one thereupon struck him a second time with the side of the gun, which was atonoe snatched. A lieutenant of volunteers seeing this, ran up, and without saying a word, shot the man with bis pistol in the head, killing him instantly. The killing of the man ia the plaza immedi? ately drew most of the mob there, aud it feast? ed its sight with tao bloodshed, and lauded the murdering lieutenant, who took good care to claim the credit of the killing, very much un? der tho false impression that the victim .vas a Cuban. Tt e viewing of the lifeless body, all covered with gore, was but an appetizer to tho mob for moro blood, and soon tho surging, shouting, yelling mass was again in Iront of the barrad-s. About this time courageous deputy commissioner Romero appeared on the street, and was booted at, which led him to ad? dress thoso nearest him, telling them they knew not what they were about ; that they did not understand the cases of the two prisoners and bad better go homo. This caused con? siderable disorder for a short while, during whioh the deputy commissioner was killed, a volnuteer in uniform, said by some to belong to the fifth battalion, but this is not positive, shooting him through.the head, and declaring at the same time he was no better than an insurgent. This morder created a visible oommotion, and General Dulce was led by it to appear, and announce that the volunteers should have justice. This, however, did not satisfy the mob, and their olamor for blood continued as violently as ever, at least a dozen cries cf Muera la Dulce! as? cending from the orowd, and one of the loud? est-voiced individuals suoutod to the Captain General so as to be extensively heard : "Decide at on e whose head we are to have, yours or that of the man." In the face of this very unflattering reception General Dulce retired, and afterwards many officers of volunteers cir? culated among the mob and told all hands that General Dulce had ordered a military commis? sion of volunteers to try one ol the men, who was to be condemned and shot m less than an hour. The prospect of more blood and of the sight of an execution, delighted the mob, and-at onoe the shouting aud yelling ceased; and ad? ditional tro ms coming up, including General Dulce's body guard, the crowd willingly moved off from in front of the barracks and the plaza, and anxiously awaited .the feast of blood prom? ised it. This was indeea to take place. Gene? ral Dulce had truly succumbed to the brutal demands of the mob. and a haman being was to be sacrificed as the price of quietude. A commission composed as promised, entirely of volunteer officers, some of whom bad been also clamoring for blood, was told to try the pick? pocket for treason. This commission com? menced its proceedings in the peculiar Span? ish stylo of first ordering a priest to confess the accused, and a hearse to bear his body to the grave, and then called the pickpocket be? fore it, together with half a dozen witnesses. These last were not sworn, but were simply asked what they knew about the case, when about one-half said they thought they had heard the accused shout ."Muera Espa?a," and the other half Were positive he did ase the words, pro? bably confounding bim with Nov, who was not tried because ho was wounded, and was known to be half-witted. Not a question was the poor pickpocket allowed to ask the witnesses, nor to say a word in hie own behalf. Without writing a une, or even taking a vote, the man was de? clared by the fiscal, or Judge-advocate, to be sentenoed to death, and was at once turned over to the preordered cares of a priest for confession and preparation for death. Whether the pickpocket's sins were few, or whether the {?dost, being a Spaniard, did not deem the poor ellow worthy of much attention, the confes? sion business did not take up much time, but was over in a few minutes. Afterwards the condemned man was given up to those detailed to shoot him. The ohosen place of execution was on the ground faoing the office of the captain of tho port, in front of the bay, and only a few paces from where the man was supposed to have committed the tremendous crime of shouting "Muera Espana I" With wonderful calmness and fortitude he marched from the barracks to the fatal spot, and met death fearlessly and bravely. The discharge that terminated his existence was the signal for prolonged cheers t om the thousands of Spaniards that witnessed the execution. The shouts were so great and numerous and exultation a so loud, that one ignorant of their char? acters or of the events transpiring, would have been deceived into supposing they were celebrating some mighty triumph, instead of being occupied in disgracing themselves by unmanly, unohristianlike, and brutal rejoicings over the killing, after a farcical trial, of a poor, unprotected, friendless pickpocket. After the execution, the mob dispersed, satisfied for the time being, and with the exception of the kill? ing of a negro man on Sunday night on Oficios street, by a detachment of volunteers, upon the pretence that he had shouted Viva (Jet' pedes, no further disturbances have occurred here. ;_ _ ACTS OJF TUB XJEQXSX*ATTTRJE.

The word morganatic ia said to be dori/od from the Gothic morgyan, to curtail or limit, and ia used to indicate a lower sort of ma rimonial union, which, as a civil engage? ment is completely binding, but fails to confer on the wife the title or fortune of her husband, and on the children the right of succession. This explanation is necessary, to understand the intelligence from St. Petersburg, that the newly married wife of the Duke of Leuchten? berg, the nephew of the Czar, Alexander II. bad received for herself and her descendants the title of Count?.?? of Beaubarnale. The de? cree .onioning this title sets forth that by the organic law of the Empire the Duke's title canuoi pasa to his children, nor can the title of Duchess be borne by his wife. It adda, however, that tbe marriage took place with the full consent of the Czar. This, it is assert? ed, ie the first instance of the formal sanotiou of a morganatic marriage in Bussia, and i' is conjectured that the imperial r?cognition will he given to similar marriages that have here? tofore taken place, -hus, the Grand Duchess Mary, the mother of the Dake of Lenohtea be'-g, who was the eldest daughter of the Czar Nicholas, after the death of her first husband married morganatieally Count Gregory Htrogo noff.

Ita depressing influences are especially unfavorable to invalids, and thousands of persons with feeble constitution?, who have borne the win? ter bravely, break down in the Ara tm on th of spring. The variations of temperature and cold eaat winda are- a serious trial to the dyspeptlo and bilious, whose symptoms they invariably aggravate. Inter mitten! fever la alto rife wherever there la evolvable poison in the water or the soil. To enable the sys tem to combat these evils, there ia nothing like good vegetable tonio, and among thia class of medi? cines HOST KIT KR'S STOMACH ?ITTERS stand supreme. Medical men prescribe lt In preference to any of the tonio preparations of the pharmacopoeia They are aware that the ordinary tinctures and ex tracts are ail baaed upon cheap alcohol, which ls sur? charged with an acrid essential oil, and absolutely poisonous. 1 hey know, on the other hand, that the reclined essence of the finest rye grown in this country is the sole spirituous ingredient of HOS TETTER'S BITTERS, and that the vegetable me? dicinal elementa of which lt is composed a-e of rare efficacy, Hence, lt has the confidence ot physicians, sud finds its way into hospitals where no other pro? prietary medTolao la sanctioned. A course of the BITTERS is especially recom? mended to persons ol delicate habite, of both sexes at ibis season. In the fever and agna districts of the West and south, quinine his been almost uuiver sal y discarded aa a ohologogue, and thin invaluable antidote to malaxions disorders adapted in lu stead A double gain ls realised by the change, for the Bitters, unlike thai dangerous alkaloid, are agreeable to the palate, and their curative effect is muoh more permanent._PAP 6 March 27 tf?r ro CONSUMPTIVES.-THE ADVER li ?EB, having bees restored to health in a few weeks by ? very simple remedy, after having suffered several yean with a severe lung affection, and chat dread disease Consumption, ls anxious to make known to hi* fellow-sufferers the means of cure.
