(*LOBED TROOPS ON MORRIS BLAND. The 3d 'United States (Colored) Troops— They are Treated as Sotdiers Should Bo— 'execution of a Deser.er—Calobration of Christmas The followiog extracts are from a letter received by a gentleman of this city from his son on Morris Island. They show a gratifying change in the con dition of the colored troops; and prove that good soldiers, no matter of what color, cannot fail to cocquer an honorable position before the coun try DlOnnis ISLAND, Dec. 27, 1863. rizAr. • Things have happily changed since I wrote last; we are treated now like soldiers, almost, it rot quite, on an equality with the white troops. We nave only one fatigue detail, and that an easy one; ard, we !hare the grand guard duties with Inc other troops. The men are happier and the officers better pleased, though their work is in 'teased by the new order of things. We have time now to drill, and men enough are left in camp for us to drill. We have company drills once a day, always in the mornings, and company or batadion drills in the suet DODDS. It is astonishing to me how quickly the men are learning they are very apt scholars indeed, and our regiment will soon be as Well drilled as any in this department, if we are allowed to have time for the teaching and to practise the officers, a thing as necessary as drilling the men. Oh, we shall have justice done us, in time; and you will And, too, that the colored troops are worth doing justice to, and ought to be treated with great favor. The colored man makes a good eoloier ; he is cheerful, obedient, and watchful when on duty. I have never seen a colored sentry asleep on his post yet ; we hear that complained of often in white troops. * I see Air. Stanton advocates paying them the same as white soldiers, and I hope Congress will soon follow his suggestions. The company was inspected this morning by the major, and went through drill. One of our men, who had the cleanest dress, musket, he ,is excused Ilour fatigue work for a week This is a reward the colonel has ordered as an iffcentive to keeping their gun and accoutrements clean, On Thursday, we had CDC of the rare miiitary spectacles—an execution for desertion. All the troops are ordered to attend, that toe sight may have a good effect in preventing a like crime in Others. Our regiment turned out as for a grand gala parade, officers in full dress. At four o'clock, we Were marched to the beach, and drawn up four deep, With our backs to the water. The 64th was drawn up in the same way, facing us, at an interval of twenty yards ; all the other troops on the island in the Name way. At halt past 1011 r the provost guard appeared marching down the l ; interva in their midst, on. Jul coffin, in an ambulance came the dese, gazede rewired pale, but rather unconcerned, and round him calmly. In front marched the band, playing the poor man's funeral march. It fi as very solemn. After marching through the street, lined with troops, the escort turned down behind our regiment, that is, between us and the water, and halted. We were faced about. The prisoner was taken from the am bulance, his coffin set down on the sand, and, after a litti,g conversation with one or two ehaplains-who were in attendance, he took off his coat artd knelt - upon his coffin. Tine platoon who were to shoot him drew up in front of him, the offi cer waved a handkerchief, and the men tired, killing the deserter instantly, who fell forward on his face. Then they laid him on his coffin, and the troops all marched past the corpse. This was the most pain ful sight of all, as the body was very much die. colored, and ell it might ne, with six shots in the breast, and several in the arms. Well, I have told you all this, as I saw it myself. I have no wish ever to see another execution, though, of course, 1 may have to do re, in the course of my military life. a * * * ♦ * This man deserved his fate. He tried to desert to the enemy. supposing the 9th Blaine Regiment, on Black Island, were 'fettle, he went over and gave himself imp, exprosing his whole crime to the men there. The day before Christmas I went on picket, and returned to quarters at reveille on Christmas morn. ing. The night was very cold. Some artillerymen foraged for wood, and made a fire just outside the gateway, none being permitted inside, on account of the exposed condition of the magazine. at twelve &mock cur shells set lire to Charleston, and made, I think. quite a large coed Aeration there, as the fire seemed to extend over a considerable spac7-, and the rebels began to fire at 11, Strong' , very sharply, and kept it up till morning, and then ended off with a hot B,e down at Steno /nlet, where some of our men were killed. This was the exchange of the n compliments of the seiwori I We had n line ninner for tne men on. Christmas— plum pudding, lemonade, and sweet potatoes, sides their te,lular late. The colonel had hot whisks , punch given toall the companies; SO they had a tine time. A few lost head a little, and the camp was gay and noisy all the afternoon. I was glad to' see the men contented and happy. C--- aria I had a good dinner ; drank to home and loved Ones in in.. tive wine, which was very good. in the evening captain C— gave an entertainment, and we had a negro-minstrel band, composed of 3d United Sixtes and Dlasaachusetta 54th men. I Myer saw a better performance of the kind. The drum major of the 64th danced a splendid jig, and our regiment fur nished an inimitable ...Hones," one of the best I ever heard or saw. The whole thing passed off well. Our regiment is improving very fast. The white soldiers will be completely thrown into the shade tf they don't look out. Tours, W. E. T., Lieut. 3d U. S. Colored Troops. Mr. Conway's Speech in England. The Leicestershire Identity gives a report of a crowded meeting held on Tuesday evening, Decem ber 15, in the New Hall, Wellington street, convened by the Leiceeier Emancipation Society, for the pur pose of hearing the recent lectures by Mr. J. Ir. Smith analyzed by a gentleman announced as the " Son of a Southern Planter," but who proved to be one who had pievieusly made an acquaintance with the L. lathier public, Mr. M. D. Conway. Mr. Conway said : The question of slavery was the principal question with which they had to do ; and that forsooth was the avowed question with which both South and North ware deeply interested. There was one thing that had strangely puzzled him, - that while the opponents of the Northerners were in favor of emancipation. and decidedly opposed to slavery, that they blackballed must inconsiderately and liberally the emancipationists who were tee stern advocates of abolition. The Emancipation Society was not in the broadest sense a political so ciety, for it numbered among its enrolled members men of all shaces of political opinions. The society, comparatively regadaless 01 the polities involved in the hostilities with America, had for Ira great aired avowed end the abolition of slavery. And who could be oPposed- to that?--Their avowed .beet was the promotion by every legitimate means of the aoolition of slavery, The South bail rebelled because they were spell bound by the terrible delusion that slavery was right, that it was cti iiee, and The right state of so ciety. The Richmond Examiner, in an article writ ten oy his first cousin, said, " We nave got to hating everything with the prefix free, from Iree negroes down andup thiough the whole catalogue of abomi nations; Site Unlike, /the labor, free negroes, free au ciety. he., all belonging to the same buoy of damns ble lame where mother is sin, anti whose dad is 'the devil." "But," continued his gentle cousin, ""the worst of all three a bonnuations, because when once instituted it beeemes the hot le d propagator of all, is the modem elate= of free sthOols.' [applause ] They had get to decide between two countries, the President eof one toiled up with his own light arm splitting ralle—[loud applause]—and was not ashamed of ft; and the other walla sultana gentle ere Mash; who had always tone:body to lan him when asleep, aid when he waken up to tremble at me w ord. Me smith ...reed where was the inner/ince between the rebellion of the colonies against Great Britain and the pietent secuseion. Tree Devolution in one case was for a good cause, and in the other for a bad cause. [Appleuse.] Revolution was nut always respectable or light. Ii the Americans had fought against George M. to establish a nation of piretci, they would not have had the reaper , of any nation ; but they fought because they believed they were op. pressed and wronged. Then Mr. Smith had asked what good had the war done? He would tell them. It hem emancipated practically and set free 1,0b0,000 of slaves,sb.tbb el whom were now. United States soldiers, reeling arms for therliberty of their bro. Viers. When lie could tell them there were no more slaves to be liberated then they would listen to argu ments about stopping The war. But as long es they found. that it was otherwise, and that everyday their Men were liberating white and Mack teem the great curse and wrong, it was idle to talk about the war not doing good. They knew it was; they saw the fruits 01 it every day. Then he declared that the South could never be conquered. Well, they Were not the that people that ever said that. The people at Memphis swore loucaz than any other, the people at Nashville louder still, Vicksburg invented the phrase of eying in the last ditch, at New Orleans they said they would turn every house to ashes be fore it should be taken, at Knosviele racy declared every man, woman, and child should be dead before they would surrender. In every one of those towns where they cleaned they would die, they were living very quietly at present; every one of those towns lieu surrendered. If they would bring any good reason why Charleston and Richmond should not follow suit: then they could listen to, but they all avowed that they would not be conquered, and they were conquered. It was very easy, too, to hold Them when they were conquered, and did not require large garrisons. Their slaves were taken away, and they aid not feel any interest 3n the war after that. In all these States they were forming large organ T. rations for their return as Dee States to the Union. . . lie had tried the South and the North, and fur twenty years or his life he was placed in close oo servation of slavery, and unless a man was prevert ed by glowing up among those evils, they were enough to freeze the blood in any heart. He had seen a men tearing down the dresses of tenter wo men, and lashing Them till they were mutilated. If they wanted to know about Geraeral Butler, he found one men who lashed a negro girl and imbued brine Into her hack, and he took that girl and set her free and fish her tenderly treated, and took the man and had bin, cast into prison. And it was nest day that the first outcry anout Butler was heard. He Dad seen these things and knew them, and though every friend and relative he had upon earth was a Southerner, what he saw was enough to turn his heart against the whole system. He went to the North, and there he found men laboring for the freeman of tbe slave even when they thought it would divide their country. They would rather the country were broken into fragments than this frightful wrong against the slave should go on. The Cruise of the Alabama. " The Cruise of the Alabama, from her departure from Liverpool to arrival at Cape Good Hope, by an Officer on Board," is published in the English pa pens, and is, a course, a narrative of much interest. On the engagement with the U. S. gunboat Hatteras, we have the following: The conduct of our men wag truly commendable. No flurry, no noise—all calm and determined. Tim coolness displayed by them could not be surpassed by any old veterans—our chief boatswain's mate ap parently in his glory. " Sponge "—" Load with cartridge”—" il bcii, rive seconds! "—" Run out"— " Well, down compressor "—" Left, traverse " "Well,' "rearly," "fire." "That's into you." -'Damn you. that kills your pig." "That stops your wind," &c., was uttered as each shot was heard to strike with a crash that nearly deafened you, the other boatswain's mate equally enjoying the affair, As he got biz gun to bear upon the enemy, he would - take aim, and bang-in would plug her, he exclaim ing, as each shot told, " That's from the scam of England," "That's a British pill for you to swallow;" the New York . papers having once stated that cur men were the "scum of England." All the other guns were served with equal precision. We were struck seven times, only one man being hurt during the engagement, and he receiving only a alight flesh wound In the cheek. One shot struck under the counter, penetrating Ise tar as a Hmt.er, then glancing otr; a second struck the funnel ; a third going through the aide, across the berth-deck and into the opposite side ; etnntlizr raising the deuce in the lamp rooms ; the others lodging in the coal bunkers. Taking a ahell up, and examining it, we found it filled with sand instead of powder. The enemy's fire was directed chiefly toward our el ern, the shots flying pretty thick over the quarter-deck, near to where our captain wes standing. Az they came whizzing over him, ha, with his usual coolness, would exclaim: "Give it to the rascals "aim low, men;" "don't be all night sinking that fellow • " when, for all or any we knew, she might havii been an iron-clad or a Commander Blake surrendering his sword, he said that "it was with deep regret he did it." Captain Semmee smacked his lips, and invited him down in his cabin. On Blake giving his rank to Captain .Senunes, he gave up his state-room for Slake's special use, the rest of the officer's being accomm °- dated according to their rank, in the Wardroom .and steerages—all having previously been parolei, the crew being placed on the berth-deck, our men .sleeping anywhere, so that the prisoners might take .their places. *ounce similar to that committed by the nein .rious Palmer is the subject of judicial investigation in Par/a. A physician insured the life of his wife for 500,000 f. (.£20,060), and shortly after the payment .of the tint premium the young woman died. The Rudder:lusts of the death, and the large amount for which the life was insured, created suspicions in the minds of the directors of the insurance company, and they determined to make the case known to the highest law authority. An investigation was cont. IlifilOf.d under the direction Of the Imperial Attorney 4 - reneral; in consequence of which the physician was _sweated and committed to the prison of Mmes. TIIE CITY.

UNITED STATES BOUNTY. Bounties ceased yesterday, but will probably be renewed by the powers that be at Washington, as President Lincoln has sent in a special message to Oongresson tine subject. A lieutenant, taking advantage of statements that the bounty would cease, obtained a first class notice in several papers yesterday, gratui tously by an ingenious card, in which he says that be wil l continue to pay, even after the draft com mences, $4OO to all men, whether veterans or not, if they, loin his regiment. It is quite probable that any officer of the regular army will do the same thing. An evening paper yesterday was misled by the publication of the card alluded to, and taker occasion to insinuate that a morning contemporary was in error in stating that the Government bounty bad ceased. The morning contemporary war exact ly right, and the evening paper had its optics closed by a very ingeniously written card.

"THE PO-LiloE.> Wefore Mr. Alderman Battler.] Alleged Larceny. A young man, named Bohman, had a final hearing, yesterday, at the Central Station, on the charge of the larceny of $70.25, the propertiof a Mrs. Burgin ger, who resides on Essex street. According to the evidence, the prosecutrix formerly kept a saloon at Newark, N. J., and finally abandoned it, and came to Philadelphia. Her earnings amountedeo less than two hundred dollars, which she deposited in the Philadelphia Saving Fund, but withdrew the deposits several weeks since. On the 26th of December, while in the cars on the way from Newark to Philadelphia. two men took seats behind her and commenced talking about the immense amounts of money settlers were making in the army, and What chances were offered to women to keep a little shop near the army. This conversa tion was loud enough for the prosecutrix to over hear, and she became somewhat interested in it, and said that ahe was doing nothing and would like to alert a little place somewhere near the army. The conversation was kept up until reaching the Ken sington depot. The two men offered to take her home, and provided a carriage for the purpoae. The party entered the vehicle, and off they were driven to the house of the prosecutrix, in Essex street. The men remained at the house a little while, and departed, one of them, the prisoner, leaving behind him a carpetbag, which he called for on Monday evening, the 28th of December. Upon entering the house to get his carpetbag he commenced some conversation about a hook that was on the table, and while her attention was thua attracted she felt her dress jerk, but did not pay any particular attention to it. The prisoner goon after left the house. The prosecutrix says that she had $7O 25 in her pocket-book when he came in, and a fele minutes after he had gone out she missed it. This is about the gist of the evidence adduced. The . prosecutrix was subjected to a severe cross exami nation, and, from the questions propounded, the de fence certainly shadowed forth an attempt to break down her character. So far as the preliminary ex amination is concerned, the attempt failed moat sig nally. The accused stoutly denied the charge as preferred against him. He was held to bail, in the sum of $5OO, to answer at court. Aaseerit and Battery. - - H. Gaston D'Bauring, a French shoemaker, was arrested yesterday by Olt - leer Findiey on a warrant issued upon the oath of Thomas Pfrommer, aged 16 years, charging the defendant with assault and bat tery. The lad lives on Fitzwater street, and is em ployed by Peter Conrad, who lives on South Eighth street. On Wednesday, last, Mr. Conrad sent the lad with a peat of boots to the defendant, for the purpose of having them mended. After the boy had entered the room, he Bays the defendant looked the door, caught him bythe hair, and rubbed him as though he was a " champooing " him- Tha boy WM frightened almost to death, and finally the French man let him go out of the room,promising that the boots should he done the next ay- The boy went after the boots, when he was served in the same man ner as on the day before, with the attempted addi tion of a crime that brought destruction to the " ci ties of the plain." The defendant, at the hearing, made nO replies to any interrogatories, excepting that he did not un derstand English. He Was required to enter bail is the sum of $7OO to answer. Masai Hearing_ Joseph C. Keepers, the name given by a young man charged with the larceny Of *pocket book, con taining $ll6 or $llB, the property of Mr. Ethridge Putnam, a boarder at the house of Mrs. Griffiths, 1004 Chestnut street, came up for a final hearing, yesterday afternoon, at the Central Station. Elizabeth Brown, a colored girl, was examined as a witness. She testified that she saw defendant in Mr. Putnam's room on two occasions—one time he was seated on a rocking chair reading a book, at brother time he came into the room while she was making the bed. He then wired for a book ; but witness not being able to read, could not tell him anything about it. Mr. Levy, detective emcee, was again called to the stand. lie said he found $2O on the person of the prisoner, and also a bunch of keys ; , tried the keys on the trunk of Mr. Putnam, but-found none to open the lock. Mr. Charles Brooks, cennsel for defence, made a strong argument, and endeavored to show there was no evidence to fasten conviction, on his client; but there mete some circumstances suggestive of his in nccence ; besides this, be has hitherto borne a good character. The Alderman said he was not satisfied as to the ease ; and yet, from the misstatements made at dif ent times to several parties, by defendant, he was inclined to be in doubt. He did not desire to do any. thing to cast reproach upon the character of defend ant, if he is really innocent, and would, therefore, ho!d the case under advisement until Friday. The defendant said hie father would be in -Phila delphia on Friday. The case was postponed Until that day. The defendant was committed. Robbery of the Pennsylvania Railroad Charles Carpenter and Charles White were to have had a final hearing at the Central Station, yesterday' afternoon, on the charge of being impli cated in the robbery of $7,000 in Pennsylvania Rail road bonds. stolen from the private vault of the Railroad office, corner of Third street and Willing's alley. The bonds were all recovered by Messrs. G. Smith and Taggert, but the actual thief was not produced, although it was thought he would be. The case being called up, Carpenter answered to hie name. Be wee committed 1.33 defkOlt Of $3,000 bail, to answer at court. White, the other defend ant, was present at 2 o'clock, the time fixed for the hearing, but when the ease was called he was non Pg. His bail was therefore forfeited. The Railroad Company, it is understood, loses nothing by the robbery. LEGAL INTELLIGENCE. Supreme Court in Banc—Refore Chief Jus tice Woodward, and Justices Strong.

William Lee vs. James Thompson. p horripsOn. This was an action to recover damages for loss alleged to have been sustained by false representations. It seems that plaintiffhad insured in the Philadelphia Fire and Life Insurance Company, on certain machinery and stock, to the amount of $2,000, which in August, 1860, was destroyed by fire. Plaintiff, thereupon, as was alleged, placed his policy in the hands of de fendant, who seemed, from the testimony, to have some connection-with the Insurance Company, for collection. The allegation was that after he had had the policy in his hands for a few days, the -de fendant represented to plaintiff that the amount of the policy had been attached, and that the probabi lity was that no portion of it would be paid to him. Under these circumstance's the plaintiff averred that he was Induced to accept, in full payment of his insurance, the sum of $875, whereas the company really paid to the defendant $l,OOO. After hearing the testimony for plaintiff, the court directed a non,- suit. Adjourned till this morning. District Court—Judge Sharawood. I The Franklin Market Company vs. Henry Cant• well.

I think, that they had not arrived at this sage conclusion before they made the first attack.) Far be it from me to gloat or exult over a fallen ene my; an enemy who fights honorably and fairly (though he fails) is entitled to both sympathy and respect; bat se hen he runs and then charges his antagonist falsely, be can baldly be entitled to either. But "to err is human," and the enemy's mood when hecpenned the article was evidently sullen. and although he is pettish. and, like the weaker boy in the quarrel, twins round and looks daggers, and makes up all man ner of wry faces at nis opponent and the • 'rest of man kinds," I am quite disposed to overlook, forget. and for give—to offer the band of charity. and to treat him like the "Prodigal Sou." if he will return and sin no more, I next pese,to a abort review of the prominentpoints in this correspondence, that it may be more fully nnder steed The attack was first made by a notice to merchants and benkers that LaLik's SAFES could bs drilled, were not drill proof or fire-proof, referring to the Great Fire at Troy to show it.

As to this test, they first propose to take a safe in their pateeEeton that they allege had teen in oar tire. with the general terms for burning, all which I acceded to, except that I would select a safe of similar size to the me they selected, and that neither party should have pessession.of either safe before the burning, to drug it, or fit it up for the occasion.

To all the charges and ailegattons I have made. as to the robberies and burning of their safes, they have not eithcr denied or dieproved them, therefore they stand admitt.cd.
