The ie'orts of nil thH Assistant Commissioners
tranasiMiied to this time had not oeen received
when 1 :nade tny report to Congress.
Th.j Assistant Commissioners of the States of
Lout" trn, Florida, and Arlttipstis, report an in
creased disposition on the part of the freedmen to
take advantage of the homestead act, and the
actual vorli accomplished up to October Bret is as
follows
In I.ouiHiana fifty-nine entries have been made,
and iHU persons settled on the public lands, repre
senting; over sjtibou worth of personal properly.
Many more applications are made by persons who
will move to these lands as soon us their year's
work cloeei.
In Arkansas many practical difficulties have
prevented the Assistant Commissioners lrom ob
taining correct Information of the location ol pub
lio lands.
In Virginia the freedmen have decreased in num
ber. Tie estimated population at this date Is
5W.WKI.
In North Caraliua the estimated population at
this date Is 3ol,u.
Thlrtv families, comprising about one hundred ana
twenty -ft re persona, have entorel lands, and moved to
l" : rida mor has ben done than In either of the
above njcn-.ioueo, Mat -a. It is probable that after
their t ene from this year's contracts, ninny will en
ter iar. notwiihutitndinc the fact that they will be
computed to competo with their more wealthy neigh
bor . . .
Hie T'pcrti of the Assistant ConimtKnloners contain
facts n'i ni a clearer h'na of thealminlttratlon ol .ins
tice to tli freedmen in the Stotes MiiLracod under the
supervision of this ollicetlianl was able to cie pre
vious to this time. Tbe Synopsis of laws submitted
does not include Kentucky and -Missouri, as we have
bee:i unable to obtain co:e lot the aots passed by the
Lr eitialures affecting the rs-ise r f freedmen.
The reports of the Assistant Commissioners dotail
at lens. J he cases that have come be'ore them re
tltilriuri :i sir interfere ce and the attlon they have
taken.. 1 tie reports contain evidence that tha manner
of ejettiiiim the laws on the part of madlatrAtea and
mrois lr. some parta of the south, his done great in
jury to the free people. The ueceisity for eniorcing
genernl order No 44 from liea-in "artors of thiarmiea
of the United States In Iiouisiaua, Mississippi and
Texas, by the Assistant Commissioners, is fully es
tablished. The decisions of snnie of the diet riot judges in the
Mate of MiFHlhslrpi that the lilvil Kightsbill was un
constitutional has no doubt robbed the colored peo
ple of oiivileges intended to be secured to them by
that !kw.
It will be seen from these reports that the ma
chinery ot the Civil Kights bill is not )n full ope
ration in some portions of the south, for many
criminals that ought to be brought to trial under
that b.il are at lane.
The assistant commissioners generally favor the
present contract system. 1 he freedmen are re
reported as having' in most cases faithfully per
formed their obligations. I am clad to be able to
renort that employers have, as a general thing,
ettled with the freedmen in accordance with the
terms of their contracts; yet when any of them
have f.vled to do sc, the Suite laws have not in nil
cases afforded to the freedmen the pro.;.'r remedies
and protection.
For this reason the assistants .report that they
have relieved the evils, us far as possible, by as-
suming the guardianship of the freedmen. ah con
templated by the laws ol Congress. They also re
port that contracts approved by the Bureuu offi
cers, and settled through the same agencies have
been biitibiactory to the freedmen. I call special
attention to the vaerant laws of the States of Mary,
land, Ueorgla, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas.
The soort time allowed after the expiration ol one
contract before a person must raaB another, to
escape vagrancy, will occasion practical slavery.
Tile arrest of assembled pereons as vagrants,

Supreme Court Decision.
Th United States Supreme Court to-day de
ciud th" steamer Springbok case. This vessel
wu se:-d in lbt3, about two hundred miles from
Nassau, whither she was bound, from Loudon,
tibe was suspected of an intention to ran the
blockace of some southern port. It was ascer
tained t'uat her cargo was contraband of war, con
sisting in part of sworda and other military ap
purtenances, and also buttons marked with the
letters C. S. A.
The Southern District of New York condemned
both the vessel and the cargo, but the U. S. Su
. preine Court overruled the decree us to the vessl,
and affirmed the condemnation ol the cargo on the
ground that the latter was clearly contraband of
war; aud that, although there was nothing to show
that the Springbok designed to pursue her journey
from Port Nassau to a southern blockaded port,
the goods were evidently to be carried from Nas
sau to supply military forces at that time arrayed
agamst the United States government.
The Arkansas Delegation.
The delegation from the Arkansas Legislature,
consisting of four members of the Senute and six
of i tie House, wr.o are now In this city lor the
purpose of conferring with the government on the
i.nin.eai situation of the country, had an Inter
view with the President to-day. The delegation
is beaded by State Senator Alexander Hunter, who
is also United States Senator elect. That gentle
man introduced the different delegates to the Presi.
dent, and also made a brief statement ol the object
of their mission, after which general conversa
tion ensued on th prominent political topic of
i the day, nam ly: the present condition and luture
' prospects of Uie country.
The interview was of over an hours duration,
and the parties retired at its close well ileaed
with the conference.
To morrow they will meet the Cabinet and Oen.

'i he onuuittee ou Territories.
The Senate Committee on Territories had a meet
in to-dav. on the subject of the bill now pending
for the admission of Nebraska into the Union.
The probability Is that an amendment will be re
ported to obvia'e the objection on the part of some
members of Congress to the cluuse in her consti
tution restricting suffrage to white citizens, by
providing for the immediate admission of Ne
braska on the fundamental condiiijn that there
shall be no distinction in the enjoyment of politi
cal rights on account of race or color in that State.
The sums principle is applicable .o the State of
Colcrado.
The Indian Bureau.
The Commissioner of Indian Affairs has made
written application, through the Secretary of the
lutenor, tor au investigation Into the recent m is.
sucre by Indians, near Fort Phil Kearny. He
states in his application that this occurrence, if
not immediately attended to, will be likely to bring
on a general Indian war in all that great section
of country drained by the Yellow Stone aud its
tribnturies. If promptly and properly Invest!
gatevt, the consequences may be averted, and jus
tice be doi.e to both Indians and military.

government stores, valued at J-J5,li00, bound from
Hilton Head to New York, grounded on Beaufort

the squadron, went to her assistance, and after
some exertions ehe was got off without Injury to
either vessel or cargo. Had It not been for the
timely assistance of the Agawam, tbe schooner
and her cargo would have been lost.
Minerals for the Paris Exposition.
Col. Roland has addressed a letter to the New
York Mining Board, suggesting that they secure
specimens of the minerals of the country that may
be found in New York, Boston and Philadelphia,
in order to make a loan or contribution to the Paris
Exposition, thus securing a perfect mineral repre

Speaker Colfax, and a lurge number of other mem
bers of Congress, who have signed the letter.

Killed by an Aerolite About a month ago a
Scotch policeman mysteriously disappeared, but
has since beeu found in Dunsapple Loch with
no trace of vio'.ence on him beyond a slight dis
coloration of the forehead. It is not supposed
th tit anybody woull be likely to murder him,
uud there is no probability that he would commit
suicide. A centleman writes to suggest that a3
tbp poor rnau'e disappearance was on the night
ol the falling stats, he was very probably struck
by one ol them aud knocked Into tbe lake. "It
is but a very few years Bince," this gentleman
continues, "that a brother anl sister were
driving in au open carriage in Tuscany, and the
former of tbe two was suddenly half stunned by
a blow on the head bv a small aerolite, which
was picked up immediately after the accident.
The occurrence was notorious at the time, and
the injured individual trustworthy and well
kuown. A second instance of the iall ol an
aerolite occurred lately iu the gardens of an Inti
mate friend of my own at Florence, on which
occasion some of tbe inmates had a narrow
escape from being strut k. The missile was ex

Havana, Saturday, December 29. The critienl
situation ot tbe banks and merchants still con
tinues. There has been a great deal of
lnxity and favoritism in the administration
ol several banking houses. Many mer
chants whose standiug was publicly' kno.vti
to be a very bad one, or at lea-t looked sin
pic!oUi, received all tbe funds aud credit
they arkt d for, and now when it is too late the
(iiicovcry is made that the oanks nave dis- ;

But not filonelhisj they alo don't pay Cieir

count any of their uotes in this critical eoocb.
fc-o lar no failures have been reportsd, but it i3
certain that many will clo-ie their doors soon,
principally merchants who are in the provision
and procerv line. Some New Y'ork, Boston, and
Philadelphia house have already sent agents
hole to look alter the interests of their houses,
but the heaviest losses will mil on '.he merchants
in Spain, who give lonirer credits and hud a

Several meetings have been bfdd by merchant
