A squid -of Texan refugees arrived yesterday, having been six days in coming from General Me- Cnllough’s headquarters at Behham. They report •a fearful state oi affairs. The whole countrv be yond the rebet army is a battle-field, and engage ments between deserters and guerillas are frequent, in which ibe former are generally successful.

' Steele’s Cavalry ad vanco -has occupied Benton, sixty miles north of Little Rock. The steamer Wm.

The Committee of Ways and Means have not yet perfected the bill increasing the pay of Inspectors of Customs. Dr.' Fnrness, of Philadelph'a, preached in Dr. Channing’s Church, last night, to a large audience. ' ORDERS TO GENERAL HITCHCOCK. It appears from official documents that the com mission oi General Hitchcock, of December 16th, authorized him to esnfer with General Butler, and designated him as agent to procure the exchange of soldiers and office! s upon terms not conflicting with the position of the department in relation to colored soldiers, nor surrendering men without just equivalent, man for man, and officer for officer. Subsequently he was directed to ex change first those who had been longest confined, and to waive for the time consideration of ques tions of parole and excess of rebel prisoners in our hands. He was allowed, also, to exchange colored men in civil employment for men in civil employment captured by our forces. On the 25th of December General Butler sent forward by Assistant Com missioner Mtilford five hundred and two prisoners from Po'nt Lookout, asking in exchange a similar number and leaving in abeyance all existing dff. ferences, with assurances that their prisoners in our hands were well cared for, and suggestion looking to an immediate exchinge of convalescent or disabled prisoners. ■ In communication of the same date he asks the exchange of Alfred F. Bengle, of the Sanitary C’cmmi.-sion, confined in Castle Thunder- the whereabouts and condition of Lieutenant Mason and private John Woolanu, of Ohio regiments and also inquires into propositions covering the cases of the officers and crews of the steam-rs and Arrow, captured by the.rebels last Commissioner Ould reiterates, in a note toMnl jord, a willingness to exchange all prisoners, the exce:s on either side to be on parole, and says this is the provision of The cartel, ancj we can icce,,t nothing less.

Chand ler, Surgeon of the Board of Enrollment, of the fame district, hare been suspended from duty to await an Investigation of a charge of having enlisted men 1 rto the Unitcd States service who were physically disqualified for military doty. Captain Isaac Platt, Provost Marshal of the Twelfth District of New York, and Dr. William Pitcher, Surgeon of the Board, of Enrollment of that district, have been suspended in like manner aud for a similar reason. • The President sent to the Senate, to-day, a com munication from tne Secretary of State, in aaswer to the rvsolution of that body,'declining to trans mit the correspondence relative to a reciprocal .reaty with the Sandwich Islands. An applica tion had been made for. the revival of a treaty similar to that negotiated under Ex-President Pierce’s Administration, but it was not approved ot by the Senate. The main objection is founded in connection with the probable effect upon the re venr.es in ihe present, juncture of onr affairs. The Supreme .Court of the United Spates to-day delivered an opinion inthecaseof the proprietors of the bridges over the rivers Passuioand Hacken-I sack, p ain’ifis in error against the Hoboken Land and Improvement fompany, in error to the Court of Errors and Apptals for the Sta e of New Jersey. Justice Miller, in announcing the opinion of the Court, gave at length the history of the contro versy, from which it appeals that the plaintiffs, claimed the exclusive privilege of erecting two bridges over three rivers, according to a franchise conferred upon their possessions in 1790 by the State of New Jersey, and that therefore, the act of 1800 could not give to the de/endants a similar privilege witbintlie prohibited limits, it being against the constitutional provisions forbidding tbe impairing of contacts. * Tbe Justice, in the review, said the grant to-the plaintiffs was conferred seventy-three years ago, when the idea of railroad communication did not enter into the minds of the legislators of that period. Steam said tbat time had produc ed a total revolu tion in travel and was destined to have a still greater jrllnence upon the affairs of the world. There could be no impairing of a contract, as the bridges and viaducts over which the road passes is a mere continuation of the ra>ls and do not’eake away or interfere with the toils from the'erossing of pedestrians and vehicles. Justice Miller said the Court was satisfied the Court of. Irrurs and Appeals bad pronounced sound principles and, therefore, its judgment was affirmed with costs. The Supreme Court, in a patent cose, pro nounced tbe opinion tbat purchasers of patented instruments, on which the patent] had been ex tended, bave the Tight to use such machines or instruments until they aro worn out. although the patent, may have been subsequently extended, without the payment of additional royalty; but ihat the right to sell such patented articles expires at the termination of the‘time for which such patentbad been issued, and does not cover any extensions of said pateut. J THE STEAMSEIP LINE TO EUROPE. Yesterday alternoon, at four o’clock an ad journed meeting of the gentlemen having under consideration the subject of a line of steamships trom Philadelphia to Europe, met in the ollice of the Pei nsylvania Railroad Company. Mr. Frederick Fraley occupied the chair. Colonel William G. Morehead, of the Commit tee op Finance, reported some additional sub scriptions, but aid not stale tho amount. One of the sub' committees, however, reported havincr re ceived siOjU'O. Mr. Lorin Blodgitt, Secretary of the Board of Trade, then addre-sed the meetingntmnch length. Ho said that an elaborate mem rial'to Congress has been prepared by the New York Chamber of Commerce, relative to the subject of steamship lines in this country. He called attention to the remarkable frequency of the cancellation of Ame rican tonnage. Nearly all onr large sailing ships have had their tonnage transferred within a vear past, at the rate of forty or fifty a month. These vessels are sold -to foreign parties, and it is not likely that others will be built to replace them. Iron sieameis wll certainly take their places. An Englishman has published a pam phlet entitled, “The Destruction of the American Carrying Trade”—the British having fonnd that in their own steamers they can do all our carrv ing trade, and after this year, it is not at all likely we shall have any large carrying trade. ’ Mr. Buzby was of the opinion that the present state of affaire was preposterous. of bein'- as we are,, he thought we should have a largely creasing marine, and it seemed we are not using the public press as we should. There is no reason why steam to Europe should not ba established, and public sentiment could be stimulated by the press to secure contributions. Public meetings should be Jield, and the minds of the people pro perly instructed. The difficulty really Is, that a foreign cousin has come amongst ns and volun teered the capital, and' the only way to get over this was to look beyond the twenty or thirty gen tlemen mainly Interested in the matter, and make the thing general. The public press shbuld be used, and persons now not thought of would williegly become subscribers. Mr. John C. Oresson agreed with Mr. Bnzby, and be regretted to see that some portion of the Corn Exchange favored the establishment of a for eign line. He thought they would be amongst the first to regTet it; and although the speaker was not m business, he greatly hoped to see a Philadelphia line of ships established. Mr. Bnzby replied that Mr. Richardson was a member of the Coni Exchange, extremely popular with that body, and to that popularity was owing, in a great measure, the favor with which their suggestions were received. Mr. Pectin said that as one of the Committee on Publication, he knew that nothing had been said npon the subject in anv of the newspapers. The speaker would be one of fifteen to subscribe the requisite amount to make the subscription reach S3UO,OCO. He considered it mortifying to fook forward to failure. Much has been lost by tbe refusal of gentlemen to serve on the committee to procure subscriptions. The labor is one of love, and, If the proper kind of gentlemen would serve, it would prove highly advantageous. The speaker was one of twelve to give 525.000, which would make $300,000, and that would be sufficient to commence the line. Mr. Bnzby thought that each gentleman should pit his hand in his pocket, and make np a publi cation fund, to issue a circular to'the public in general. He moved a committee of three be ap pointed to prepare a memorial to Congress at tbe some time. The motion was agreed to, and the Chair ap pointed Messrs. Buzby, Pechih and Blodgett as tbe commiitee. Mr. Treason moved that the committees, as now existing, be continued, and that this meeting as- Mmble at the call of toe Chairman, which was agreed >o. Mr. Fechin stated that this matter is warmly en. cotiinged by onr State Legislature, and that if tht* ine once started, liberal aid may be expected from the State authorities. * The meeting then adjourned.

Ford denies that was with; Hackett longer than a few miantes after he left tlie shoe shop, aud he also denies that he was where the witness places him at two o’clock in he morning, or thereabouts. He says tbat he did not know tbe man who was in Hackett’s company at the time they were at tbe shoe shop. Ford is about twenty-oho years old, and resides in the First "Ward. Tbe investigation was continued until to-day, to enable the Coroner to obtain other testimony. THE MALDEN BANK ROBBERY AND MURDER Post oil, Feb. B.—After the search ot Green a person he was conducted into an adjoining room, where he was informed that he had been followed and watched fot some time. Thereupon, without any unusual emotion, he confessed his guilt. He stated that on the day of the murder he visited the bank twice; the first time he found there a con dnetor, who left a pair of skates; the next time was at half-past eleven. Immediately on entering he went into the director; s room, and seeing no one drew his pistol, a six-barreled Smith 4 Wessin re volver, placing the muzzle within a foot of young Converse’s head, and fired, theba’l taking effect under or back of his ear. He instantly discharged a second barrel, the ball taking effect in Converse’s temple, while bis victim lay on the floor. After the consummation ofthe deed he seized the bills in the drawer, about five thousand dollar-, and went to his own office. He iniormed the per sons present that aportion of tbe money was con cealed in a piece ot the newspaper in an old bo >t in tbe. Post Office. Six hundred and fifteen dol lars were fonnd as he had directed. He further stated i hat the balance was secreted nn ter the flooring in the attic of tbeVolunteer Engine house, and on making search tt ree thousand four hundred and fifty-fourdollars in Malden Bank bills were found, ntakiug in all four thousand and sixty-nino dollars. This, with several sums paid by him, accounts for the whole amount stolen from the bank. He also stated tbat the pistol was in a drawer ai his hoarding-house, and on going there it was fonnd. Green was brought to this city and committed to the Tombs. The ieelings of his wife on hearing of his arrestcan better be imagined than described. FROM JAPAN iffUcAINA.
