From WasHfngtoit. WASHINGTON, March 5.-The House Com? mittee on Reconstruction report a joint resolution to admit Tennessee into thc Union on certain conditions, to bo ratified by her people, vi?,: No part of the Confede? rate debt to be paid; those who were en? gaged in the rebellion not to be allowed to vote or made eligible for office for a cer? tain period. This is the Republican pro? gramme as to all the Southern States. The House, by a vote of 37 ayes to 100 nays, refused to receive a communication fro'm tho Governor of North Carolina, en? closing a resolution of the North Carolina Legislature, signifying their acceptance of certain lands for Agricultural College pur? poses. Tho vote was taken after Stevens saying they did not recognize North Caro? lina as a State in the Union. In the Senate, a joint resolution was in? troduced for the admission of the Repre? sentatives of any State of the insurrec? tionary States, "upon the repeal of all distinctions of civil rights on account of color, and the conferring of the right of suffrage upon all negroes who have served in the army, can read tho Constitution, aud who pay tax on real or personal pro? perty. The resolution waa referred to tho Committee on Reconstruction. SHIP NEWS. PORT OF CHARLESTON, MARCH C. ABUTED YESTERDAY. Sehr. S. J. Waring. Smith. New York. Sehr. Moses B.

Flora came to me, one day, With a smile npon her face; She surprised me, as I lay Reading in a shady place. "Fred., my darling, I'm so glad, Baby's tooth has just come through. "What, still reading! 'Tis too bad; I made sure 'twould interest you." On my wife I fixed my eyes, As in all her girlhood's pride, In her simple morning guise, She stole softly to my sido. Gently wared her raren hair, As the zephyrs kissed each troas, And I breathed a grateful prayer For my FiarVa loveliness. Lightly swung she to and fro, By irs ribbons of light blue, That straw hat I cherished so, As my pretty darling knew: Then her littlo hand silo stole Very gently into mine, "Whilst m to my very soul, Those sweet eyes appeared to shine. "Flora, love," I gaily cried, "Give our darling babe a kiss, For his father." Off sh o flew In an ecstacv of bliss. When his mother's task WAS o'er, She came breathless back to mc. And we studied long love's lore Underneath an old elm tree. Flora came to me that night. And paced the moon-lit lawn. And her eye seemed yet more bright Than it had been in thc morn; "Darling husband, como with me, 1 have something you to show:" Then she kissed mo in her glee, As I told her I would go. There he lay in placid rest, Our all-precious baby boy; Gentlv heaved his little breast, And" his cheeks seein'd to flush with joy. "See, our pet has pleasant dreams,"' Flora whispered come. " Do not stay, For the candle's lurid beams May awake him. Come away." Flora came to inc again, When an hour or two had flown, And I though': she seemed in pain. For her look was not her own. " Fred, 1 think our cherub's ill." Murmured she with quivering lip ; " Perhaps it is my fancy-still Do not let a moment slip." There he lay, alas ! no more In a slumber sound and light, But was tossing o'er and o'er, And his cries disturbed tho night. Flora took him to her breast, Till at length he slept again, Then we left our pet at rest, Quite beyond thc reach of pain. Flora caine to mo next morn, To me, by that old elm tree, But her face was pale and worn As I could not bear to see ; Red and swollen were her eyes, Sorrow bowed her graceful head, But I heard above her sighs " hove, our only one ia dead !" Fenian iloromcnt. As the Fenian movement is attracting j much attention, both in England and this ? country, we subjoin some details brought by the Asia : Upwards of one hundred arrests were i made in Dublin on tho 17th ult., principally strangers ; among others, Colonel John ? William Byron, of the Federal Army. Many I more arrests wcic expected to take place. Tho doings of the Fenians in the pro? vinces, and the efforts of the police to frus? trate their evil designs, are naturally the subject of many communications to the Dublin press. " Our own Correspondent " has, in fact, a busy time of it, chronicling seizures of arms, captures of supposed Head Centres, and the like ; and this morn? ing, one of them goes so far as to declare that, a Tew nights since, Fenian beacon fires blazed on the hilll-tops visible from Mu?y ionghran, in the county of Armagh. The people of that district at once concluded that a "rising" was contemplated, and they sat up until next morning. Persons j at a distance may laugh at auch fears; but they should recollect that in this city, where there is a strong military force and j a well organized body of police, the con- i epirators are daring enough to establish j manufactories ofpikes and rifle cartridges. 1 A man named Fitzgerald, who alleges he ia an officer in the American service, has been arrested in Fermoy. On the person of the prisoner was found a pocket-book containing the names of six other soldiers. The magistr -tea have been holding a pri? vate investigation with reference to tho names found in the pocket-book, but with what reault is not known. It ia said the soldiers deny ever having seen the prisoner. Another double of Stephens has turned up in the county of Kilkenny. He carried a wallet stuffed with hay ; bia address was aingularly polished and'gentleman-like, his complexion fresh, his beard large, pointed under the chin, and slightly fringed with gray at the end, his hands and feet re? markably small, his height five feet seven inches, his eyes brown, his figure stout, and over his forehead quite bald. Every? thing seemed to indicate that he was the Head Centre Stephens himself, who was thus wandering aljout the country in dis? guise. He has been remanded for eight days. At the head police office, yesterday, a man, who ?ave bia name as John Carey, but who is supposed to be Sullivan, against whom a warrant had been issued in Cork, was brought up on a charge of being im? plicated in the Fenian conspiracy. The prisoner had been pointed out to the con? stable in Dame atreet, on the previous day, as a person against whom a warrant had been issued in Cork. The approver, John Warner, was examined, and identified tho prisoner as the "Centre" for Mallow, county of Cork. Ile also proved that he saw lum t'requi fitly attending Fenian meet? ings in Cork, in the house of John G. Geary, and on ono occasion, he knew of him to bring a subscription of ?7 from Mal? low, and give it to Cleary. He was re? manded.- Dublin Correspondence of Lon? don I'ost, February 10. THE TIU\L OF GUXKEE FJLOOD. Dt'BLix, Tuesday Morning.-The court martial upon gunner Flood, of tho Royal Artillery, charged with writing a letter to the irish Peope, sat again yesterday. Al! the evidence in ?lie case, however, had been taken on the previous day, and this sitting was for the parp?se' of enabling the prisoner to address the court. His defenco was, ol' course, written for him by Mr. Con? cannon, his counsel, and clearly pointed out the weak parts of the evidence, but it did not in the slightest degree relievo Flood from the charge of writing a sedi? tious letter to the People, and the court could only arrive at the verdict it did, after a, brief consultation, that of guilty. At tho commencement of his address," the pri? soner said: "Tho honorable and gallant Colonel Feilding haa expressed a hope that the court would find sufficient evidence to con'iet me, not so much on account of the punishment which they may bo able to award, hut in the hope that the proceed? ings of this general court martial may serve as a warning to the rest of the army, which he acknowledged haa hitherto been above all suspicion of disloyalty and disaf? fection. But I am quite sure that tho honorable and gallant colonel and this honorablo court would deeply regret that even so unimportant a member of the ser? vice should bo convicted on any evidenco that has not been full, complete and satis? factory. And I may, perhaps, bo allowed to say, that more would be done towards confirming the loyalty of tho army by the failure to prove that even ono of their com? rades was tainted with disaffection than could possibly be done by estabhshing his guilt." Having declared tha t the evidence of an informer ought not to be relied upon, he flatly declared that ho was not the writer of tho letter which was found in the office of the Irish People with his name attached to it. "The letter was written." he said, "by some ono anxious to do me an injury. "I would, bad I ever entertained Fenian sentiments, have been sure to have spoken something, at one time or another, iving evidence of my feelings; and if I ad been cautions enough not to do so be? fore, is it at all likely that, in the very way, and at tho very time when a disclosure must prove most dangerous. I would vo? luntarily make it-at a time, too, when the very language attributed to me would in itself show that I folly realized the risk incurred by a person writing to tho paper? The letter is not mine; and I respectfully and earnestly invite thc attention of the j court to this suspicious circumstance, that thii post-mark on the envelop and the date of what is produced as the enclosure are wholly inconsistent with each other. It is not for me to clear up this difficulty; but I am confident that the court will consider it well deserving of consideration." Flood ne:ct dwelt at some length upon the danger of convicting a man in bis position upon the alleged identity of his h and-writing with that in the letter. "The members of this honorable court mus'; all," he argued, "have heard trials in courts of law in which there has been the most opposite swearing on this very subject-the swear? ing, too, not of persons destitute of tho skill to form correct judgment, so far as correct judgment can bc formed about it, or on whose veracity any imputaiion was thrown, but persons of unusual cxperionce and unquestioned truthfulness. Indeed, the notorious fact that thousands of pounds have been paid, oven in the bank? ing establishments of the country, on forged checks, purporting to bc signed by customers, whose signatures the cashier paying those checks was in the habit of examining, and which it was bis peculiar duty to know the genuineness of, is, pcr hap's, the strongest proof how little re? liance can be placed on this sort of evi? dence." Thc prisoner concluded by saying: "I am not charged with conspiracy, and one tittle of proof has not been offered to tho court to connect me with the Fenian organization, and 'l respectfully submit that it is repuguant to every rule of law, as it is contrary to every principle of jus? tice, that I should bo held in any way re? sponsible for the acts of persons to whom I am and ever have been an absolute stranger. To mako any article in the Irish People newspaper evidence against me, it should be proved that I had sanctioned and adopted it, and had done something to disseminate it, to the prejudice of military discipline, or in eome way contrary to my duty as a soldier or a loyal citizen. Other wise, it would be as just and legal to give I in evidence against me tho writings of any one in any quarter of the globe.'--Dublin | (Feb. 15) Correspondence London Post. ATTEMPTING TO SOBPRIS^ THE SENTRIES AT j THE MAGAZINE FOIT, DUBLIN. An eye-witness informs ns of a somewhat strange occurrence, which took place at the Magazine Fort, Pheonix Park, ono | nigh; iast week. It appears that sorno tune near midnight, tho sentinel, whose I post of duty is nearest the entranco gate, j heard foot-steps approaching the gate on the outside, and on nis moving towards it j to look out, the parties, evidently more j than one, moved away round the fort to? wards another sentinel stationed on the { works, who says ho distinctly saw four men, whom he""challenged." but received no answer. The men outside, at the same time, crouched down and crept along to? wards another of the sentinels, who in turn challenged the strangers and alarmed the guards and inmates of the fort, when 1 the intruders probably tnought that thev j had carried r.heir reconnoissance far enough for ono night, and scampered .ff, and wero | not seen again, notwithsr tiding every ' search was made through the park by ; parties of military and constabulary till I fur in the morning. However, reinforce menta were sent the following morning, j and such orders given to guard against surprise, that a similar experiment, whe? ther in frolic or in earnest, will, in all pro- j bability, convince the parties who seem so j interested in that place that gunpowder is j a dangerous '.diing for children or fools, and the lesj they interfere with it the better.-Saunders'' Dublin JVeics latter, ? Feb. 12. TEE DUBLIN FEMIAN FACTORIES. With respect to tho seizure of Fenian munitions of war, which I reported by tele? graph lest night, there is little more to bo added. It is the most extensive and im? portant discovery of the kind yet made, ard, taken in connection with tho three och^r factories, it shows how formidable have been the preparations made by the conspirators for actual war, and pushed forward even while the special commission was sitting. Assuming that the police are right m their conjecture that these four factories are only a small portion of those which exist in the city, and that there were similar preparations going on in the provincial towns, wo can account for thc swaggering manner and the tone of insolent defiance adopted by the Fenian : convicts when their sentences wero being j passed upon them. Encouraged by tho large remittances from America, and de luded by O'Mahony's magnificent pro- i mises, to which the release of Stephens seemed to give immediate effect, they ex- I pected that a successful revolution would soon compel an exchange of prisoners, in- i vest them with office in the Irish Republic, and crown them with glory. It a curious fact, however, that though thc word "dis? covery" has been applied to these cases, the detectives never found any of those armories by their own vigilance, long as : they had been in operation, and large as the quantities were of the materials of war j which had been accumulated. In every instance, I believo, tho discovery was the result of information privately conveyed to them, either verbally or by anonymous letters. In the last case, acting on private information, Inspectors Doyle and Flower, and Constable Quinn, proceeded, yesterday morning, to tho house at 27 South Earl street, occupied by a widow named Kear- j ney, and her nephew, John Haydon, a boy, about sixteen years of ago, who was taken ! into custody. On his person was found a i number of rifle bullets, percussion caps j and a brass detonating bullet mould, lie i could not account for the articles found in one of the bed-rooms, which consisted of j no less than 1,700 rounds of Enfield rifle cartridges, powder and bullets complete, 1,200 rifle bullets, boxes of cartridge paper, cut by machinery, numerous tin disnea and measures for powder, a powder flask, and three casks which had been emptied of the powder they contained to make car? tridges. Ho was remanded, yesterday, for trial.-Dublin Cor. London Times, Feb. 10. Hardware.

I HAVE been engaged for ?onie time in Washington city in investigating ai? pro? secuting the applications for pardon from South Carolina under the Amnesty Procla? mation. Having the approval of Governor Orr and ex-Governor Perry, and thc; advan? tage of distinguished official and profes? sional assistance, I have been enabled to overcome the greater part of difficulties heretofore existing in this matter, and have obtained the execution and delivery to me of warrants for pardon in most of tho cases which come within the thirteenth (or $20,000) exception. About forty cases of this character, more recently tiled, are still in the Attorney-General's office, and could not be obtained at present. There arc about fifty cases under other excep? tions, on which, likewise, no action for the present could be obtained. Some applica? tions have never reached Washington, and ? ill have to bc renewed. I have complete lists and descriptions from which I can give full information in any of the cases. In addition to the warrant of pardon, many of which have already been issued and delivered in South Carolina, and the acceptance thereof, a final official certifi? cate is necessary, in order to render the pardon a full protection against confisca? tion. 1 have obtained the necessary forms and instructions upon which to procure these final certificates. The present aspect of political affairs, and the organization of the Federal Court in South Carolina, will suggest thc necessity for thc immediate completion of all pardons. My charge for information respecting any pardon is five dollars. For procuring the warrant of pardon and final certificate, twenty-five dollars. For procuring the final certificate alone, te:) dollars. As my j expenditures of time, labor and money have been very heavy in these matters,my ; fees must be paid in advances If from any cause thc service cannot bo successfully i rendered, the fees will be immediately re- j turned. I will attend, also, to preparing original j applications for pardon-obtaining the Governor's approval-and have the appli cation prosecuted in Washington city. Ad? dress C. J.
