By Tolegrapii. Congressional. WASHINGTON, March 31.-Th? Senate has passed tho bill to provide for the punish? ment of certain crimes committed against the Un i toa States. The crime of forging United States securities is made punishable by ten years imprisonment. The House has passed the Diplomatic and Consular Appropriation bill; also the bill to facilitate commercial, postal and military communication between the se ycrSb States. uttE SEA ISLANDS-THE GRANTS OF USELESS TO THE NEGROES. Howard has received a report Brig. Gen. Tillson, Superinten ent of the Burean for the State of Georgia,, who has recently visited the sea islands. He states that all the questions in dispute between the freed people on the islands and the former white residents are now amicably set? tled. Those having grants of land have had them consolidated on one part of the estate upon which they I were given, as directed in "Special Field Order No. 3." In addition to these satisfactory results, a saving of ?from six to eight thousand rations per month to the Government has been effected. The Assistant Com? missioner fears that, owing to the want of impliments, seeds, animals and food, the freedmen having grants of land will ?ail in raising a fair crop. There are scarcely ten families of freed people on the sea islands whose grants of land are of ny value whatever. Land is abun lant enough, but labor is scarce, and ommands a very high price; and he hinks the freedmen would find it uch more to their advantage to go work for wages than to attempt to titivate land for themselves with jiadeqaate means. The commissioner t fully convinced, from personal ex tuinatiou, that the question over hich there has been so much dis |ite, as to whether or not the freed shall retain their lands for a few years, has ceased from the cheapness of land and the scarcity of labor, to be of the slightest consequence to them. He says that the real want in that State is a sufficient military force to insure the prompt arrest of crimi? nals, and such an organization of the United States courts as shall enable the people, white and black, to stand on an equality before the law, and to obtain justice. FROM CUBA.-Additional particu? lars regarding the recent revolution? ary out-break in Cuba and the cargo of Africans captured off the coast of the island, have been received by the steamer Corsica, which left Havana some hours after the departure of the Moro Castle, on the 10th instant, and arrived here yesterday. The re? publican demonstration appears to have been a movement of little con? sequence politically. Of $he captured Africans, numbering in all, it is said, 1,500, 700 had been landed at San Antonio, r-?L soldjN? -Or-prominent | planter, ?JPFrate of S225 each. In connjjet^jfer- with the privilege re mtly granted by the State of Flori? da to an American company to land and extend telegraphic cables from the Florida coast to Cuba, it is stated that the exclusive right to land tele? graphic cables on the Cuban coast was conceded to a Spanish company by a decree issued in Madrid, in June, 1865. One of the Havana dai? lies, in discussing the subject of pub? lic education, gives a striking con? trast between the free schools of Cuba and those of New York. A joint stock company was being or? ganized at Havana, for the purpose of erect^pg a building consisting of four st?ries, the first of which is to be devoted to stores, the second to a Cuban athenaeum, the third to a the? atre, and the fourth to a hotel. [New York Herald, ll th. LARGE SEIZURE OF CONFEDERATE GOODS AT NEW ORLEANS.-The col? lector at New Orleans has recently made an important seizure of goods on board the steamer Doubloon, which arrived at that place from port, and the goods are now held in the Treasury warehouse in the former city. The cargo consisted of 150 bales of Mexican blankets, grey Confederate cloth, clothing, and a quantity of cotton goods, the whole, worth from $80,000 to $100, 000. 'The following are the circum? stances attending the capture: About the time of the surrender of Kirby Smith's forces, a man named Galvan smuggled the goods across the Rio Grande into Texas, via Eagle Pass, for the use of the Confederate Government. The property was seized by the United States military authorities, but by some means or other they were afterwards released and turned over to Galvan's agent, who transported them in wagons through several Counties in Texas, unsuccessfully offering them for sale n% lie nent, until he arrived at Shreveport. At the latter place, a party, whose name is not gi von, ob? tained possession of the facts in the case, and at once placed himself in communication with collector Kel? logg, who placed the matter in the hands of acting surveyor Cassard, who, after mcJV patient watching and waiting, tfLirhold of them on board the steamer above mentioned, as she was about to discharge her cargo at New Orleans. There is considerable talk in Wash? ington about a difficulty between two prominenjflflyticiansjjj^msed by tho * one kissii \ Unfortunate Trmgedy-Souip Klght LJTCS Lost. A sad occurrence took place near this port, yesterday, by which some eight persons were drowned, and outers injured. The steamer General I Hooker, Captain Davidson, which has been plying os a packet from this port to Georgetown, S. C., for several months, left Boyce & Co.'s Wharf, in this city, on Wednesday, about o a. m., and about one. hour later, when the steamer was off Beech Inlet Breakers, she waa found to be on fire in and near the coal bunkers. Al? though a stream of water was imme? diately played on it, and every effort used to put .out the flames, they in? creased rapidly, and in some fifteen minutes the entire upper part of the steamer appeared to be on fire. The boats were got ready, and the steamer pointed for the beach, out there was a heavy sea rolling, which, with the confusion among the passengers, in? terfered seriously with the use of the boats, and finally capsized and filled them with water, causing the drown? ing of sere il ladies, and perhaps others. ? The fire progressed so quickly that the tiller ropes were burnt before the Hooker could be got to the beach, and she consequently became unma? nageable. While in this position, passengers took to the water, and hung with tenacity to any object that would support them. The steamer Pilot Boy, Captain Payne, also on her way to George? town, and which was about one and a half miles off, put about and came to the aid of the Hooker as soon as her situation was discovered. Cap? tain Payne, on reaching the spot, j anchored his steamer to keep her i head to wind and sea, got out his life 1 boat, which was taken charge of by Captain John Ferguson, who, to? gether with Captain Davidson, of the Hooker, who was in a half-sunken boat, and Mr. Doane, Pilot, succeed? ed in placing some twenty persona on the Pilot Boy, by which means they reached this city at ll a. m., and bringing the first news of the j disaster. The following are the names of those who came up in the Pilol Boy, as near as could be ascertained : D. Risley, wife and sister, passen? gers, Georgetown, S. C.; W. Burk?, passenger; J. H. Foote, passenger Master Bush, passenger. Georgetown, S. C. ; Mrs. Davidson and child, wife of the Captain of the Hooker; F. G. Coffin, Mate of the Hooker; A. F Doane, Pilot of the Hooker; foul other white passengers, the body o: Miss Bush, two firemen, steward waiter and one deck hand; also, three or four colored persons; one a woman badly burnt The following landed on Sullivan': Island: Captain Davidson, Mr. Long Engineer; Mr. Rottereau, Purser; an< two deck hands. The following are lost: Mrs. Rhodes passenger, of Georgetown, S. C. Miss Belle Risley, of Philadelphia Miss Bush, daughter of the Mayor o Georgetown, S. C., who was just re turning home from school. Her bod; was kept afloat by her clothing, am she was picked up, but life was ea tinct when she was got on board th steamer. The number of colored persor drowned we found it impossible t learn, and placing them at four c five, we do so only conjecturally there may have been a greater nun ber. The Hooker was burnt to th water's edge, and has floated ashoi <>n Sullivan's Island. The bodies < Mrs. Rhodes and a colored woma floated ashore on the beach, yeste: 'day, and others will no doubt soo find their way there. Captains Fe guson and Payne, and Mr. Doom Pilot of the Hooker, are particularl spoken of in reference to their effor to save the lives of the unfortunat The Gen. Hooker is a new boa and is owned by 'Messrs. McKay Aldus, of East Boston. [Charleston Neics, 22d. Coroner Whiting, on the arrival < the steamer Pilot Boy, yesterdf morning, with the body of Mi Bush, at once empanelled a jury az commenced an inquest. Some thn or four witnesses were examine when further investigation was pos poned until 4 o'clock this afternoo: at which time all the surviving passe; gers, officers and crew, are summons to appear at his office, in La Range, No. 20 Broad street. We a pend the depositions taken: Captain Thos. R. Payne, of tl steamer Pilot Boy, deposed, that 1 left the city about 8 o'clock, Wedne day morning, bound to Georgetov with a number of passengers, ai loaded with freight. The steam General Hooker left about ten min ut afterwards. When about two mil past Beach Inlet he discovered smol issuing from the General Hooker, ai believing some accident had occurre steamed back to her assistance. Tl General Hooker was discovered to 1 on fire, and the Pilot Boy was broug as close as possible to the burnii vessel. She was then enveloped flames. Deponent lowered his boat and succeeded in saving some fe or twelve passengers aud seame Among the number, were three ladi and the deceased, who was not de; when taken on board. The Genei Hooker was an opposition boat i the same line. Deponent is of t opinion that the General Hooker w on the even tenor of her way, ai not running a race. Dr. R. S. Heriot, beinfl^j^?^i posed, ny u^B^?Xvjft boai\i^| Hammer ijfij - saw tfl SH^?&?H back his steamer to lend all possible assistance and rese?e as many of the 1 passengers, officers and crew of the Gen. Hooker as he could. Depo? nent saw nothing to lead him to the belief that there was a race. The deceased is the daughter of the Hon. B. O. Bush, Intendant of George? town. She is about fifteen years of age. Deponent rendered her all the iii edi cal aid in his power, and endea? vored to restore life, but failed. ? colored woman that was saved was k badly burned. A. F. Doane, Pilot of the Steamer General Hooker, being sworn, de I posed, that he was on board as pilot, and was in the pilot-house when tiie first mate, Mr. F. D. Coffin, came in and informed him the boat was on fire in the fire-room, having broken out in the coal-bunkers; I immedi? ately put the helm hard a port, and run the steamer ashore on Sullivan's Island; when she struck, the fire had made headway, and we lowered the boats, taking in as many as they could hold; just as we pushed off the life-boat, with about eight or ten per? sons in it, * a heavy swell capsized the boat, and every one were thrown out. I endeavored to assist the Cap? tain's lady and child. I also tried to save another lady, but she was out of my reach, and the child clinging to my neck compelled jae to get to the shore as soon as I could. I behove the other lady sunk. I think she was Captain Risley's wife's sister. [The witness being needed for the steamer about proceeding to the wreck, the Coroner granted him per? mission to leave before concluding his testimony.] Mrs. Morgan, being sworn, said sue was acquainted with deceased. Her name is Carrie Bush. Her pa? rents Uve in Georgetown. Supposes she is between fifteen and sixteen years ol age. This concluded the examination for the day. The deceased, we learn, was just from school at the North, and was returning home with her brother, when this distressing occur? rence took place. [Charleston Courier, 22c/. THE TEXAS CONVENTION.-The Tex? as State Convention has adopted the substitute for the majority report de? claring the secession ordinance null and void, acknowledging the supre? macy of the Constitution of the United States, and renouncing the right again to secede, by a vote of forty-three to thirty-seven. The Committee on the Condition of the State reported an ordinance per? mitting the Legislature to pass a stay law on all judgments for debts for feur years, on condition that the in? terest on and a quarter of the prin? cipal of such debts are paid each year. The Judiciary Committee reported an ordinance protecting Confederate civil and military officers from crimi? nal and civil process for impressment or injury of personal property. The special despatch to the New York Herald, of the 19th, says: President Johnson, yesterday, re? ceived a despatch from A. J. .Hamil? ton, Provisional Governor of Texas, giving a more hopeful account of the doings of the State Convention than any that has heretofore found its way Into print. Governor Hamilton sums up by saying that, although the Con? vention had been in session one month, without apparently accom? plishing anything material, measures similar to those adopted by Alabama were likely to prevail; that there, will be no trouble whatever concerning a repudiation of the rebel war debt, and that the freedmen will be treated more satisfactorily than by most of the other States. The principal dif? ference of opinion was, whether the ordinance of socession should be merely repealed or declared abso? lutely null and void from the begin? ning. _ _ GREENVILLE AND COLUMBIA RAIL? ROAD.-We are authorized to state that the system of return tickets has gone into operation on this road again. This arrangement will be gratifying to tlA local patrons of the road. An unpleasant rumor bas been pre? vailing for a few days, that the mili? tary authorities have impressed the road for the purpose of carrying off Government cotton. We believe that there is some truth in vue rumor, at least to this extent-the freight cars have been appropriated by the mili? tary to take the cotton down the road; but it is hoped that this will not interfere materially with the trans? portation of the spring stocks of goods which our merchants have recently bought, and which are now arriving daily.-Abbeville Banner. The seventy-two constitutional amendments which have been intro? duced into Congress by the radicals having failed to produce harmony and concord, their advocates have lately held a caucus, and instructed a committee "to reporta constitutional amendment which will be acceptable to everybody." This is, we are ashamed to say, a very poor American attempt to imitate a distinguished English statesman, Mr. Tittlebat Titmouse. That gentleman solemnly promised that, if elected to Parlia? ment, he would introduce bill for giving everybody everything. Senator i Wilson had Titmouse's famous bill in j view whenhe moved the resolutions to v^?kglS??have referred. Forcig?? News. The Steamer Germania brings four days ? later news, being dates to tho 7th inst. We append some extracts from the intelligence brought by this arrival: "Tho Lord Chancellor, on thc 5th, moved, in the House of Lords, the socoud reading of a bill to make parties to a divorce suit capable, but not compellable, to answer any questions as to whether they havo or have not committed adultery. Lord Chelmsford opposed the bill, and after some discussion there was, on a division, twenty-nine for, and twenty-nine against the measure, the ! Lord Chancellor following the usual prac? tice. The Chancellor of the Exchequer, in the Honsc of Commons, said that the reform bill, of which he had given notice for March 12, would only apply to England and Wales, but hoped on that day to be able to state what course would be taken with regard to Scotland and Ireland. The returns had been substantially complete for some time past, and would probably be published by . Saturday. The most noteworthy rumor of the day is that thc relations between Berlin and Vienna are becoming "strained." Prussia has made, it is said, an offer of compen? sation in money for Holstein, which Austria rejects, desiring the Silesian County of Glatz. The Prussian Cabinet, however, is determined to annex thc Duchies, while the Austrian Commissioner in Holstein has officially advised the people of thc Duchy to revive the Constitution"of 1854-a direct divergence from Prussian policy. Messen? gers arc constantly passing between the two Courts. The language of Count Von Bismarck's organs has become menacing, and it seems certain that Prussia, whether in earnest or not, is arming fast. Tho Austrian Government will probably be compelled to give way, but it will go tb the very verge of war before it will submit to what is practically an order to leavo Hol? stein. A telegram from Hamburg says: "Great uneasiness prevails here in consequence of the rumors of a probable collision between Austria and Prussia on thc question of tho Duchies." ? A Chilean privateer has been fallen in with off the coast of Norway. The Con? cordia (Spanish steamer) arrived in Chris? tiansland to load a cargo of fish for Cadiz, waB spoken by her, and fortunately escaped by hoisting thc English flag. Vessels in Norway are demanding higher freights from Spain upon Northern produce. ' Thc Avenir National publishes intelli? gence stating that military revolts have broken out in ?Spain:* The garrison of Ciudad Rodrigo is said to have rebelled, and to have afterwards withdrawn into Portugal. Attempts at sedition are also I reported to have occurred at Alcala, and I several sergeants have been arrested. The same journal asserts that Spain has de? manded thc extradition of the Spanish soldiers who have taken refuge in Portugal on the ground of their being deserters. The Portuguese Government hesitated to comply with this demand. The Pope will hold a Consistory shortly, but whether before or after Easter is un? certain. Six new Cardinals are to be named on thc occasion. Dr. Lynch's name has been spoken of in some circles; "but," says the Rome correspondent of the London Times, "as he has represented the interests of tho Southern States for some time, it is little likely that an honor will be conferred which would be regarded as an insult by the Government of the United States." The London Times has the following on the President's veto message: Tho President of the United State& has just refused his assent to a bill passed by both Houses of Congress, and has thus brought the Executive and legislative ?powers of the Government into direct col? lision with each other. This exercise of authority ho has justified in a long and elaborate message, of which it is not. we think., too much to say that it establishes, completely and absolutely, the wisdom of his decision. Thc question at issue con? cerned an institution long designated as peculiar to tho Southern- States. of the Union; but the events which have recently transpired in our own colony of Jamaica will enable us to understand, with very little difficulty, the political copflict in America. ? We may perhaps best explain the bill thus rejected by borrowing an illustration irom the history of jamaica. If, then, we can imagine that an Act of Parliament had been passed empowering the party repr?? sent?e! by Dr. Underhill and his friends to constitut?iiiilitary tribunals in every parish of Jamaica, and through those tribunals to administer martial law for the express benefit of the negro and the humiliation oi the white man in all tho transactions ol life, we shall got a good idoa of the Freed? men's Bureau bill as sent up to President Johnson. * * * By the protected legisla? tion tho enfranchised negro would be made, not a free man, ba? a pauper, supported ir an exceptional position, itt the charge o: others, and against every principle o: American institutions. The State had nevei done, even for its most deserving citizens what it was now asked to do for a sectio? of the population, whose only distinctioi was their color. This was not the way tc make the black mau really and truly th? white man's equal. If tho negro claim: the rights of freedom, he must accept itt duties, and, above all, the great duty o labor. There was no reason to suppost that he could not carry his labor to marke as advantageously as any other citizen Nowhere was labor moro in demand thai in the States w here tho negroes dwelt, an? even if it were otherwise, any man coul? change his place of abode at discretion Industry and thrift would enable them be yond a question to get their own living and provide for their own needs, like air other class of the people, and the exercisi of these virtues would open the surest and, indeed, the only road to respectability and prosperity. T? these unanswerabli arguments President Johnson added ye another irresistible objection. It was i fundamental principle of the America! Constitution, that, without representation there should be no taxation; aud yet, by tho projected measure, Congress was pro' posing to legislate for eleven States which although their interests were most directly and especially affected, had been exclude? from allshart' in thc deliberations preced ing. This action of the President, thong! Unusual, was by no means unexpected ; ii fact, the necessity of opposing sonic hai? rier to the violence of tho ratlical party ii Congress had become obvious to tho coan try. As far as we can judge from our pie sent information, the exercise of the Pre . sidential veto has been favorably received Accortling to the American Constitution the veto might be overridden by tho pas sage ?)f tho. hill anew, witli a majority o two-thirds in its favor; but this. majbrit; could not be secured, for the numbers when the attempt was made, were found ti be only thirty to eighteen. Generally, too it was said tho public had testified thei approval of an act designed to express th determined opposition bf tho President ti j sectional and oppressive legislation. No i should wc expect less from the good sens j and judgment of tho American people. Ii this country, tue courage and "decision e.; I hibited by Mr. Johnson will confirm tb , respect in which his policy has been held an'l will entitlohim to credit as one 'jj^?M ! ablest Btatesak~ ^i^h^ve^v^coiK^K3^ Senator Sherman, of Ohio, last night, addressed a Republican meeet ing in Bridgeport, Connecticut, in ?". hich he dwelt on the importance of the success of the party at the ap? proaching election in that State. He expressed warm approval of the patriotic course and general official conduct of President Johnson, and claimed that there is really no essen? tial point of difference on the recon? struction question between the Presi? dent and Congress, the only variance being in the fact that the former thought each House should decide separately on the question of admitting members from the lately rebellious States, while the Senators and Repre? sentatives insisted on acting jointly, by vesting the consideration of the matter in the Reconstruction Com? mittee. Mr. Sherman thought the copperheads would find out very soon that the President entertains no de? sign of political affiliation with them. {New York Herald, V'Ji.
