Eillouhry and Sera geant Smith arrested a couple of negro men, having in their possession a boat and some seven bags of cot- ton. They conveyed the negroea and cotton to the barracka where Capt. Anderson held an examination The officer testified that a junk merchant on the whai f between the Exchange dock and Drayton street, ac costed him in the afternoon and asked him if he waa on that beat He said yea, when the man informed him that he wanted to get in some cotton that he had bought, and asked him to go to the other end of his beat to allow him to do so; that he would make it “ all right.” The officer ” smelling a mice,” waited until Sergeant Smith came along, when he informed him cf the circumstance, and of the fact of a boat laying be tween two vessels containing cotton. The officers then laid in wait to see if any one would remove the cotton, but seeing no one and finding these two negroes about the boat they arrested them and took the cotton in charge. The negroes disclaimed all knowledge of the cotton, though one of them said the boat belonged to him and had been Btolen from him by some other negroes. There not being enough evidence to authorize their detention, one of them was dismissed, and Sergeant Smith ordered to go with the other and see if his story about the boat was correct, and if. it was to release him. He also gave orders to arrest the white man (whose name we withhold for the present) if he could be found outside of his store. The cotton waa packed in bags made of all aorta of materials, such as bed-ticking and sailors’ hammocks, Ac., and looked as though it were bagged by sailors. Another SI- clclug Outrage. Yesterday morning the police found a negro man lying in Bay lane, between Houston and East Broad streets, who presented a most horrid spectacle. He had evidently died during the night of that m~si loathsome disease, small pox, and appeared to have been thrown from some of the tenexnenis thereabouts. A sight of this kind would have, under any other cir cumstances, collected a large crowd, but learning the disease there were very few who had the temeri;ylo go near the body. The corpse was allowed to remain exposed in that condition for some hours until the City Marshal was notified of the fact, when he had it buried. The question arises again, have we a Coroner ? Wa certainly should have one, but the Marshal informs us that this is the third case which he has been compelled to take charge of and bury at the expense of the city. The one before this was that of a negro man who was picked up in the river and who was allowed to remain on the wharf exposed to the sun and storm for a period of at least three days before he was buried. There appears to be something amiss in the office of coroner. If the present incumbent has not received his commission and cannot act, the functions of his predecessor are, or certainly should be, still continued. Captain Travis’ Pistol Gallery. We understand that Captain Travis’ Shooting Gal lery, which for several weeks past has been a popular and }ileaeant resort for our citizens, who take an in- tereat.in or desire instruction in the skilful use of the pistol; will be closed on Wednesday evening, the 28th iust., when he leaves us for a short sojourn in Augus ta. The Captain, not less by his courteous and pleas ing manhers than by his careful and pains-taking ef forts to instruct his pupils in the use of firearms, has made many warm friends, whose good wishes will at tend him wherever he goes. He stands acknowledged, we believe, the best pistol shot in America, while he possesses the faculty in a remarkable degree of im parting instruction to others in the use of his familiar weapon. The Darien Murder.—Yesterday morning the steamer H. M. Cool, from Darien, arrived at this poit, having on board Captain O’Keefe, charged with the murder of Wm. Geary, one of his sailors at that place about two weeks ago. He was in charge of a guard o 1 United States soldiers, and was delivered to Colonel Kimball, commanding this district, who yesterday turned him over to the civil authorities. He was ac cordingly brought before Justice Levi S. Hart, who, after a prelimiinary examination, committed him to jail, to await the order of the authorities of McIntosh county, within whose jurisdiction the crime was com mitted. Shoes Afloat.—On Monday as two men engaged in taking timber down the river to one of the vessels now finishing loading, they picked up a case of shoes, containing some sixty pairs, near the south gap of Ve nus’ Point. The men’s names are ThosT Johnson and Jno. Connors, and any person having lost a case of shoes, by enquiring at this office and giving the num bers and marks of them can obtain the goods by pay ing the necessary expenses. The Steamer Standish.—Yesterday morning at high tide the workmen engaged in trying to raise the hull of the steamer Standish, succeeded in righting her, and with the assistance of the Bteamtug Starlight, she waa towed into the stream, and away from the dock. We suppose thay will tow her across the river and then, by the assistance of powerful pumps, may be able to raise her. From Sunbury.—The steamer U. F. Potter, Captain Cessar, arrived last evening from Sunbury, and the Purser reports having met the steamers Ella and Clarion, bound down. She brought the crew of the English bark British America, recently wrecked. The purser will accept our thanks for favors. [Special Correspondence of the Savannah Herald.] FROM 3IILLEDGEVILLE. Milledgevtlle, Ga., Feb. 13, 1866. Editor Herald : A great deal of the business before the Legislature ■ has been despatched, a great many questions have been settled, yet much remains for the consideration of that body. Already seren hundred bills havs been introduced, only about two hundred of which have been acted on. Still it must not be supposed from this that the session is to be very much protracted. A resolution has already been introduced in the House to adjourn on the 28th, which resolution will he passed and very likely carried. The spring promises to be unusually early, and com planting in the lower coun ties of the Sta’te has already begun. Members from that section say they will not remain long after the 1st of March. I visited the penitentiary yesterday. Every house in the enclosure was burned by the Federal army ex cept the cell building. It will take at least $50,000 to put the institution in a condition to receive convicts, while it is probable that the penitentiary (which the Legislature have decided to continue) will not be re moved the present year from the city of Milledgeville, it is all but certain that preliminary steps will be taken to have the inetitution removed to the Stone Mountain or to some other locality in the Northern section of the State. The Treasurer of the State having made the joyful announcement that there is money in the Treasury, and members lost no time in making application tor their per diem. A bill in reference to Vendue .Masters, offered by Mr. Russell of Chatham, came up on its passage today in the House. It allowed the municipal authorities of any city or town to elect or appoint any number of Vendue-Masters or Auctioneers upon their paying the usual license or tax and giving such bond as may be required by ordinance, Ac. The" Judiciary Commit tee to whom this bill had been referred reported a substitute which allows any citizen of Georgia to be a Vendue Master upon paying a license. Mr. Bussell moved an amendment by inserting after it the word licence, “and by giving a bond.” Mr. J. J. Jones of Burke, objected to the amendment, making a few re marks, when Mr. Bussell addressed the House as fol lows : Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen— I must acknowledge that I am somewhat astonished that any gentleman should object to this amendment. I offered the original bill because I could not see any good reason why tha corporate authorities of any city or town should be compelled to elect any specifiednumber of Vendue Masters. By reference to the act of '56, which I will read you will perceive that the Mayor and Aider- men of the cities of Savannah and Augusta can only elect or appoint ten vendue masters, who are required to pay a tax and give a bond which they require by ordin ance. Now,Mr. Speaker, I have no objection to the bill substituted for mine by the Judiciary Committee pro vided my amendment be added to the bill, which only requires the person or persons desiring to be vendue masters to give a bond. I am in favor of allowing any man the privilege of following the business of a vendue master, as many depend upon this kind of business for the support of their iamilies. At the same time it will increase the income from State taxes, as each vendue master has to pay ten dollars per annum for his license; it also increases the revenue of the respective corporate cittes and towns, by re quiring them to give a bond as a guarantee that they will do a legal business. I do, therefore, ask gentle men that this amendment may be added to the bill and that the bill as amended may be passed. The House holds afternoon sessions, and is making fine progress with its business. Chatham. ✓ A NEW COTTON ORDER FROM THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT. Subscribers to tbe Confederate Cotton Doan to be Required to Deliver their Subscriptions. The following order sppesrs in the Augusta Chroni cle and Sentinel of yesterday: OFFICE ASST. 8PECIAL AGENT, L AGENT,) U. S. Treasury Department, > - “ b. 16,186d.) Globe Hotel, Augusta, Ge., Feb, Pursuant? to instructions received from the Hon. Secretary of the Treasury, all persons who have sub scribed to the so-called Confederate loans in this dis trict are directed to report without delay at this office, to make arrangements for the dilivery of their sub scriptions. Lists of the subscribers have been furnished to this office. Non-compliance with this order, within a reasonable time, will subject the parties to great inconvenience. Bailroad and steamboat companies will be held responsible for transporting subscribed cotton out of this district. James B. Willett, Asst. Special Agt. Treasury Department. Treasury Department, ) January 13, 1866.) Sir: * * * »• • The twenty-fojur bales in question is represented to b? part of a lot of one hundred bales, subscribed bv F *, to the produce loan, ao-caHad, in the year 1863; by which subscription he agreed to dispose of the cotton, on or before s oertain date, and to invest the proceeds, in the form of specie . or sterling ex- change, in eight per cent, bonds of the Confederate States. Mr. F never fulfilled this obligati m, and declares that he was never called upon to do so, nor wire the bonds ever tendered to him. He Lai sold part of the cotton on his own account. ' I do not regard the right of the Government to prop erty seized by its officers in the insurrectionary States, as limited to such property as by the rules and princi ples of the common law, would be decided as having oeen lawfully acquired by the so-called Confederal States; nor does tbe United States derive its title to such property from or through that ao-styled Gov ernment, as its assignee or successor in law. In fact this Government demea that the Confederate States, as a Government or body corporate, de jure or tie fucto, could lawfully acquire or possess any descrip tion of property. The title of the United States to such property is founded upon its right, as an established Govern ment under the law of nations, and under the acts of its own legislature, to seize, hold, and apply to its ben efit all property which has been used to overturn it, or subvert its lawful authority, or which has been volun tarily dedicated to such use by its owner. It is apparent by Mr. F —’a statement that the cotton in question was at one time so dedicated by him. If it was not actually used for the purpose then intended, or if he, for any reason, declined to fulfill his agreement, the property is not thereby purged of the taint; nor he restored to his original right therein. You will ♦ * forward the cotton in due course * * Bespectfully, H. McCulloch, Secretary of thifTreasury. H. M. Buckley, Esq., Supv’y Special Ag’t, Tr.

Heavy Seizure.—A few days ago the Customhouse officers of New Orleans seized s large lot of various kinds of goods valued at from eighty to s hundred thousand dollars. It consisted of army and Mexican blankets, cloth, clothing, Ac. It seema that these goods were smuggled into Texas from Mexico just be fore the close of the war, and carried from place to place in Texas, but without finding buyers.
