Senatorship and tbe Supreme Bench continue to arrive. Tbe committee to investigate the financial condition of the State are now bolding a session; but whether their labors are to.re sult in any good is extremely doubtful. The Legislature seems impatient of their delay to report, anil a resolution was offered in the House having a tendency to cut short their work. 1 am pleased to see the venerable form of Georgia s noble son, Hon.

St. Loujs* dge ' 8 ^ uilt ncross the river At The San Jacinto, which arrived yesterday, brought New York papers of the 20th, two days later than previous dates. the Texas Boeder—further particulars OF THE CAPTURE OF BAGDAD. The announcement comes from New Or leans that the armed force from Texas which captured from the Mexican Imperialists tbe town of Bagdad, on tbe Rio Grande, consist ed chiefly ol' tbe One Hundred and Eighteenth United States colored infantry, under Colo nel Davis. Tbe capture was effected on the morning of the 5th inst., and it is said that the negroes immediately after commenced plundering the place and robbing the citi zens, shooting those who refused to deliver their money. Three hundred Imperialists were made prisoners, about half of whom joined tbe Republican service and. were de tailed to garrison the town, the captors im mediately disappearing. The American General Crawford was in command of it, and General Escobedo was on his way thither.— The accounts indicate that the former was about starting on another expedition. Gen. Weitzel, at the request of Escobedo, sent two hundred men from Brownsville, Texas, to Bagdad to preserve order. The shelling of the town by.a French vessel, which was kept up during the Gth inst., did not result iu relaxing ufthe slightest degree the hold upon it of its new garrison. The Washington correspondent of the .•Philadelphia Ledger says: The Government is without any official advices with reference to the capture ot Bag dad, and there can be no doubt but wbat it regrets the occurrence. Gen. Sheridan will likely proceed immediately from New Or leans to the Rio Grande, in order by his per sonal presence and authority to keep the dif ficulty from spreading. It it is found that any of our recognized forces were engaged in the capture of the Fiench garrison, they will be summarily dealt with by the Government, which is de termined that its honestly-expressed pledge of neutrality shall not be violated with impu nity. The great trouble now to be apprehended is the shedding of more blood—both Ameri can and French—in the recapture of tbe town, whicii has, no doubt, ere this been ef fected. At last advices the Imperialists held all the roads between Matumoras and Bag dad—a distance of some seventy miles—and they also commanded the river, so that it would seem morally impossible that the “one hundred” or “four hundred filibusters,’! so called, should escape capture or destruction. The French Minister here is very reticent upon the matter, and will probably await official details of the affair, or instructions from home, before asking “explanations” trom our Government. I think news of the re-occupation of Bagdad by the French may be looked for within a week. A PRESIDENTIAL VETO LOOKED FOB. A special despatch to the New York Post, dated Washington, 19th inst., says: The Op position members ot Congress claim that the President will veto the House bill on equal suffrage if it passes the Senate. There is lit tle doubt Ihut it will pass the Seuate. A leading member of the Cabinet express ed the opinion last night that the hill would be vetoid, but prominent members of the House and Senate are confident to the con trary. The Ways and Means Committee have im posed sccresy upon its members in reference to its action upon tbe Loan bill. ANOTHER I’KOUtULE CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND MENT. A special Washington despatch to the New York Post says: The House Judiciary Committee has up the subject of furiher constitutional amend ment, but has arrived at no conclusion. Enough is known, however, to render it cer tain that the Committee will at an early day report an amendment, providing that where black men are not entitled to vole they shall not be represented in Congress. TIIK FLORID V SENATOR’S CREDENTIALS. In the Senate on Friday last, Mr. Doolittle present-d the' credentials as Senator from Florida of ex-Provisioual Governor Marvin, spoke in most complimentary terras of Mr. Marvin's character and claims for admission, and read extracts from his valedictory ad dress on retiring from tbe Governorship. Mr. Sumner replied, expressing great respect for Mr. Marvin, but contending that he had failed to do his whole duty as Governor, and read letters descriptive of the condition of affairs in Florida, to show that the people of that State are still disloyal and not justly enti tled to claim tbe admittance of tueir repre sentatives to Congress- The credentials were then laid on the table. ALL QUIET AT JAMAICA. The steamship Montezuma arrived at this S ort yesterday, with advices from -Kingston, amaica, to January 6. No further distur bances had occurred on the island; but. over one hundred and fifty prisoners were still held ior trial, and the arrests of “rebels” had not yet ceased. Sir Henry Storks, appointed to supercede Governor Eyre, had not arrived at bis post of duly when the steamer left. A despatch from W. Cardwell, British Secreta ry of State for the Colonies, which had been laid before tbe local Assembly, seemed to give unqualified approval to the measures taken by Governor Eyre for the suppression of the "revolt.” EXECUTION OF MBS. GRINDER. tJMrs. Martha Grinder, the Pittsburgh poi soner, was executed by hanging on the 18th. She confessed to having poisoned Mary Caruthers and Jane R. Buchanan, but denied other cases. A few days ago a thorough medical test was made of her mental condi tion, and the conclusion was unanimous that she was entirely sane. Her demeanor on the gallows was unexpectedly calm. ACTION AGAINST GBN. PRICE. Smith O. Schofield, United States Marshal tor the Wesiern District of Missouri, has published declarations ot the “warrant and monition” in the case of a large number of defendants, against whom actions under the confiscation. laws of Congress have been taken. Among the number is Geu. Sterling Price. THE RECONSTRUCTION COMMITTEE. A Washington letter of 17th inst. in the New York Post, says : The Reconstruction Committee had a meet ing this morning. It is not expected that it will report very soon, but there can be little doubt that the first report of the committee will conclude with a constitutional amend ment covering two or three important points; and tbe chief one will be that relating to representation. There are evidently, a majority in Congress opposed to representation based purely upon popula tion ; and, if possible, an amendment will be adopted which will prevent white men anywhere from representing black men who are not voters. TBE FENIANS. The O’Mahony division have derived cou rage and cheer from Stephens', endorsement, and they are collecting and developing a great power- Both parties ate receiving continual endorsement and remittances from the working brothers. A call for a Fenian military congress in Pittsburg on tbe. i&h of Febtuaiy. bSftbWP issued, with the approval of President Ro berts. Twelve military officers who arrived on the 14th from Ireland, appeared before the Senate and made a very important, detailed report of Irish republican matters, and ofthe reception of tbe American quarrel news by the I. R. B. and its leaders. The President of ttie Senate made an important speech re garding tbe policy and intentions of that di vision of Fenians. AUDACIOUS ROBBERr. Samuel .Terry, a youth of sixteen years, employed as messenger in the Farmers’ and Citizens' National Bank of Williamsburg, was sent to the Park National Bank of NeW York, on Friday morning last, with a large amount of mooev for exchange. Terry crossed over tbe Roosevelt street terry, and after landing took the nearest route for the bunk. While about to turn tbe corner of Beckman and William streets Terry observed two men having on soldiers’ coats in a butch er’s cart, which suddenly stopped in front ot him. One of the men alighted from tbe cart and struck him across the face with a pistol, knocking him down. Tbe assailant then seized the satchel containing the treasure, and instantly jumping into the cart with tbe plunder, drove rapidly up William street with his confederate, and escaped. LATER FROM EUROPE. The latest advices from Europe are by the steamship Nova Scotia, at New York, with dates to the 5tb inst. England.—Very furious gales bad been ex perienced on the English coast, and a series of disasters to American shipping is reported The Fenian trials were concluded at Cork. A number of prisoners were sentenced, and trials of other were postponed lo the next assizes. McCafferty and Mackey, being aliens, were admitted to bail and ordered to leave the country. The London Times thinks that tbe French troops will be removed from Mexico and Rome during the present month. Napoleon, at his New Year’s Day recep tion of the diplomatic body, expressed the hope that I860 would be a year of peace. A fire, supposed incendiary, had destroyed about two million dollars’ worth of property at St. Catherine's Docks, London. Mr. Bright is again hopeful that Earl Rus sel will advocate reform “with the energy of thirty years ago.” The Bank of England had advanced the rate of discount to eight per cent. France.—Count Favorney, Second Secre tary of the Fiench Embassy at Washington, had had an audience with the Emperor. An alliance between France and Austria was spoken of. Recognition of Southern Members by the Executive Departments.—The special cor respondent of the Louisville Courier, tele graphing from Washington on the 43tb, says: Southern members are fully recognized by the Executive Departments of tbe Govern- ment- They have the franking privilege, and are notified to appoint to fill the vacancies in the regular array. A Washington despatch says that a Repub lican editor, applying at one of tbe most im portant departments last week for the official advertising, was asked if his pnper would adopt the President’s policy. The intima tion was made that on no other terms could official patronage be given out. On Saturday la9t Thomas B. Florence, of the Constitu tional UDion (copperhead), bad his bills for Government advertising given him by order of the President, audited and paid. R USS’ RUSS’ RUSS’ RUSS’ RUSS’ RUSS’ ST.
