[TI3IR3) DESPATCH.]
Portland, Me., Feb. 23. —Captain Borland,
of the Bohemian, arrived by a tug-boat, at 10
o’clock this morning, and reports the ship to be
In four fathoms of water, off Broad Cone, and
slightly heeled off.
The main deck, at low water, is two feet
under on one side, and at high water it is seven
feet under.
He thinks she will hold together if the wea
ther is fair.
The only way to get the cargo out is by di
vers and taking her into shoaier water by lift
ing her.
The weather is thick and foggy.
Three mail bags were saved. It is thought
that but few passengers are lost besides those
who were: in the swamped boat.
Some of the firemen probably perished.
The steamer Bohemian was bnilt in 1859,
and was 2,190; gross, tons burthen. On the
British Register she is classed A No. 1.
From a passenger, who came up in boat No.
6,1 learn that he was standing on deck at the
time the accident occurred. They had passed
the buoy and the passengers were just remark
ing that it was a pilot boat coming out, when
the ship struck. The boats were got out safely
with the exception of No. 2, which was
swamped.
No. 5 took aboard all she could hold, in
cluding several who had jumped into the water.
Being unable to find a landing place, she was
rowed up the harbor. —She contained mostly
cabin passengers and some steerage passengers,
whose names I did not learn, with the excep
tion of a Mr. Brown. - . .
STATEMENT OS THE SECOND OFFICER.
From, James Scott, the second officer, Hearn
that all the. officers were on deck when the
steamer struck. It was five minutes past eight
o’clock, and the watch was being changed when
the ship struck on a rock and went over.
Orders were immediately given to clear away
the boats, and soon the ship was headed for
shore; but shortly afterwards she sunk in four
fathoms of water.
Boat No. 1, under the call of the boatswain’s
mate, made two - trips to shore, saving on the
. first trip about 80 persons, and on the" second
about 70.
Boat No. 2 was swamped—No. 3, under
charge of the second officer, landed about 94
persons in Broad Cove. Boat No. 4, under the
charge of the first and third officers, landed 23
persons,
Boat No.-5, in charge of the fourth officer,
brought 29 into Portland harbor. These num
bers include the officers and crew of the Bohe
mian. .
The whole number of passengers was 218,
and the number of the crew 99,
The nnrnber of saved was 298, leaving 19 to
be accounted for. .
The lamp-trimmer, Peter Hart, and engi
neer’s storekeeper, whose name is unknown,
are supposed to have, been drowned. All the
lemaunng officers and crew were saved, *
THE PIRATE TUSCALOOSA SEIZED BY THE
BRITISH AUTHORITIES.
Boston, Febw 23.—The bark John Gilpin,
which arrived at this port to-day,'brings dates
from Cape Town to December 31st.
She reports that the rebel pirate Tuscaloosa
had been seized by the British authorities at
the Cape for violation of the neutrality laws, in
landing a portion of her captured cargo on
that coast. .
The Tuscaloosa put into Simon’s Bay on
December 26th, to obtain supplies and repairs.
Shortly after dropping her anchor, Sir. Baldwin
Walter despatched a boarding party who
seized the vessel under the'authority of the
British Government.
The Tuscaloosa was in command of Lieut.
Lowe, who had returned to Simon’s Bay after
a three months’ cruise, during which, out of
nearly one hundred vessels, she met only one
United States ship.
In the meantime she had been ordered away
from a Brazilian port, in consequence of which
her crew were placed upon short allowance.
- After the seizure of the vessel, Lieut. Lowe
lodged a formal protest against the proceeding
and went to Cape Town to consult with legal
-advisers.
Mr. Graham the U. S.consulhad also lodged
a claim against the vessel in behalf of her for
mer owners and it was thought that the ques
tion raised as to the legality of her condemna
tion by Captain Semmes, who claims to con
stitute a prize court by authority from the
rebel Government, will havejto be argued be
fore and decided by Sir William Hodges, in the
Admiralty Court.
, [The pirate Tuscaloosa was formerly the bark
Conrad Rhiladelphia.]
FROM .WASHINGTON.
[Special Despatch to the Bulletin.]
Washington, Feb. 23.—The House Judi
ciary Committee this momiDg rejected Mr.
Clay’s bill legalizing gold contracts, upon the
ground that it is unwise to interfere with the
settled policy of the Government.
The Ways and Means Committee had up the
petroleum, question, whether a tax shall be im
posed on crude or refined. __
. No military news from the Sonthwest has
yet been received at the War Department.
Senator Morgan’s party, last night, was a
great .success. Mr. McPherson represented
Pennsylvania on the occasion.
The fair of the. Christian Commission opened
in the Patent Office last night. Mr. Lincoln
was present.
E. A. Souder & Co., of Philadelphia, offer
to charter the steamer W, H. Seward to the
Government.
Charles Knapp, of Pittsburgh, continues his
offer of eight and ten-inch colombiads to the
Ordnance Bureau.
All the stories that the President intends
soon to make a fresh call for troops are be
lieved here to be false. Such stories have
been in circulation.
Mr. Kelley, of Philadelphia, replied to Mr.
Cox, of Ohio, ,in the House at one o’clock
to-day.
Green Clay Smith, of Kentucky, has been
seriously ill, but is better now.
[By the People’s Telegraph Line.]
Washington, Feb. 23. —At the opening of
the" Patent Office Fair, last night, after Mr.
Chittenden had delivered his speech, Major B.
B. French read a patriotic poem, which was
loudly applauded. Loud calls then being made
for President Lincoln, he stepped forward and
said that he appeared before the audience to
apologize for not speaking,rather than to speak.
He thought that the committee had practised a
little fraud on him, for they did not intimate
when they came to see him in the morning
that they expected him to speak j therefore,
he had come before the audience totally un
prepared to say anything. That was taking
one at a great disadvantage after the eloquent
speech of Mr.. Chittenden and the poem of
Mr. Trench. There was great objection to his
6aying anything, for necessarily in consequence
of his position, everything went into print.
[Laughter and applause.] If he made any
mistakes it might do both himself and the
nation harm. [Applause.] It was very
difficult to say sensible things. [Laughter.]
He therefore hoped that the audience would
excuse him, after expressing his desire that
the charitable enterprise in which they were
engaged might he abundantly successful.
[Applause.] ;
Capt. Scbeetz’s detectives have lately fer
reted out several lots of rebel letters. The
vigilance of this corps has made epistolary
communication with rebeldom quite perilous.
By their activity they have also captured quite
a quantity of contraband goods in several
different places. We' understand they have
found that a member of the Maryland Legisla
ture, who lives in Southern Maryland, has
secreted a quantity of arms, ammunition, rebel
flags, Ac.

FINANCE AND BUSINESS-—FEB. 23,1864;
With one ot two exceptions, there was a very
strong upward movement at the Stock Board this
morning in moat of the speculative shares on the
iist, while the regular dividend paying shares, al
though held firmly, were comparatively dormant.
The Five-Twenty Loan sold to a limited extent at
107 ‘ , ® nd City Loans were neglected, 112
was bid for Pennsylvania Railroad First Mortgage
j “?, lm i° r the Second, but there were none
offered at these figures; the shares sold at 70J4 —a
decline of 34. 174 was bid for Camden and Amboy
Railroad; 170 for Philadelphia and Trenton Rail
road; 6334 for Mine Hill Railroad; 78 for Beaver
Meadow Railroad; and 4934 for Little SbuylkiU
Railroad. Reading Railroad was buoyant under
favorable advices from New York, and sold up lo
6636 an advance of 36. A sudden demand sprung
up for North Pennsylvania Railroad, and it ad
vanced 1, with considerable sales. Philadelphia
and Erie Railroad was rather quiet at asjf. Cata
wissa Railroad Preferred was steady at 44@44i£.
There waß an active speculative movement in
Schuylkill Navigation Preferred, and it advanced
from 3936 to 4236, and the Common stock rose to
29)6. Susquehanna Canal was firmer—closing at
2636. 13436 was bid for Morris Canal Preferred, and
69.4 tor the Common stock l —both an advance. In
Mining stocks we noticed an advance of 1 in Oil
Creek; 36 in New York and Middle Coal; and 34
in Penn Mining, Bank shares were without quota
ble change. In Passenger Railway securities the
transactions were unimportant. 81 was Hid for
Second and Third Streets; 6134 for Chestnut and
Walnut Streets; 62 for Tenth and Eleventh Streets;
4034 for Thirteenth and Fifteenth Streets; 16 for
Spruce and Pine Streets; and 3034 for Girard

The parties in St Louis and Cincinnati, who
have been Counterfeiting the Mustang Liniment
under pretence of proprietorship, have been tho
roughly estopped by the Courts. To guard agains
further imposition, I have procured from the U. S.
Treasury, a private steel plate revenue stamp,
which is placed over the top of each bottle. Each,
stamp bears the/ae simile of my t ignature, and
without which the article is & Counterfeit, dan
gerous and worthless imitation. Examine every

a hamlet on tne habitable Globe that does not con
tain evidence of its wonderful effects. It iB the
best emollient in the world. With its present im
proved ingredients, its effects upon man and beast
are perfectly remarkable. Sores are healed, pains
relieved, lives saved, valuable animals made use
