The findings and sentence of the naval court-martial, of which Vice Admiral Far ragnt was president, for the trial ot Com modore Craven for declining to challenge the commander of the rebel pirate Stone wall, in the harbor of Ferrol have been pub lished. The court sentenced Commodore Craven to be suspended for two years. The Secretary of the Navy returned the findings and sentence disapproved to the court, which reiterated its decision. The Secreta ry of the Navy then dissolved the court, and, releasing Commodore Craven from arrest, directed him to return to duty. The Herald's Washington dispatch ts further disclosures show that frauds upon discharged soldiers, by unprincipled claim agents, in the matter of procuring bounty land warrants along the Pacific Railroad, will reach $50,000 instead of $20,000, as at first believed. The complaints of swindled discharged soldiers, who have received the advance fee of $25, are coming in at a pain ful rate. The English press is doing well in de nouncing th.s horrible butcheries perpetra ted in the island of Jamaica during the late outbreak. It may reasonably be doubted if bo flagrant and unjustifiable enormities were committed in France during the Reign of Terror, or in the most barbarous ages. The English people is divided between shame and indignation ; and well they may be. The question of the admission of the Southern claimants to seats in the House of Representatives, it is now considered, has been fully determined. The vote in the House adopting the Stevens resolution by two thirds, is regarded as conclusive evi dence that they will not be admitted this Winter. The Pope's allocution against the Free Masons has had a strange effect It is said that within a day after it ,was published, the two secret lodges in Rome received 28 new members. It is also asserted that Pope Pius was a member of the order in the early part of his life. The Freemasons of Massachusetts having chartered the Lodge of colored Masons, at Newbern, North Carolina, the white Ma sow are very much exercised about the matter, and are striving to suppress them ; it will not be done, however, while our troops are there. The British authorities have come pretty fully t the conclusion that no practicable armor can render war ships shot and bullet proof. As the power of the guns is increas ed the armor is made thicker, . but in every instance, so far, the guns ultimately come off winners. The increase of population in some of the .English cities is quite rapid. Since the cen sus was lafcen in 1S61 ihe population of the borougK of Sheffield has increased from 1S5, 000 to upwards of 207,000 souls. ' It is said that Jeff Davis is turning his attention, more than ever, to the concern of his souL Well, he has much to repent of. and should be dilligent, as his days are about numbered. ' George Grinder, the husband of Martha Grinder, lately convicted in the criminal court of Pittsburg on the charge of murder, was also tried for the same offence and ac quitted. The Committee appointed to selccC a site for an Ohio State Agricultural College have recommended that Miama University, at Oxford, be taken for the purpose.

There is at present living in Sweeden a young man aged 19 years, who is 9 ieet 5 itches in height At eight years of age he was five feet 3 inches. An immense iee gorge in the river near St Louis, gave way on the loth, and sunk a number of steamers od Urges, valued at $300,000. The railroad bill before the Tennessee Legislature, appropriates bonds to the amount of 22,000 to .eight railroads in that State.- It is positively asserted that General Lo gan will aoeept the mission to Mexico by direction of the War Department provision ally. . . A fire occurred in Chicago on the 16th, by which $250,000 worth sf property was destroyed, about one-half of which was in sured. The Oregon Legislature ratified the Con stitutional amendment, abolishing slavery in the United States, on December 12th.

The men who fought and won the battles of the Government, and thusmaintaincd it in pow er, have not been treated altogether fairly so far as bounties are concerned. The men who first enlisted feel that injustice has been done them, in the matter that, while they served long and faithfully without extra pay, others who went into the army after the hard fighting and marching were done, se cured fortunes. In a plain common sense view.the injustice is highly offensive, and the friends of the soldier, in, as well as out of Congress, are determined that there shall at least be an equalization" of bounties, that the men who were willing to meet the first furious attack of treason, shall be recompen sed and paid equally with those who enlis ted when the battle was more than half fought and won. The bill of Mr. Clarke, of Kansas, which is now before the House, proposes to equalize the bounties to soldiers, by providing for a uniform bounty of $100 per year, computing for the whole term of enlistment. The measnre is approved as one which will do justice to all our fighting men, and we trust that it will become a law as speedily as possible. , The State of the Country. The offi cial statements of the conditions and rela tions of the country, as given through the Message of the President and the reports of the various departments and bureaus, afford a most satisfactory exhibit. Their influence is already felt in the increase of public con fidence and the strengthening of the nation al securities. Considering the vast respon sibilities which have, during the last four years, oppressed the Government, and the immense debt which has been contracted in the war for the Union, every report which has been given the people is much more favorable than was expected. Upon all the great subjects of the present nation al concerns" the question of re-organization of the revolted States, the condition and prospects of the Treasury, and the financial purposes ot the Secretary and of Congress, and the foreign relations of our Govern ment the official documents laid before the National Legislature, speak in a way which gives ground for entertaining the faith that the course of the country is toward -domestic pacification and international peace, and a higher measure of prosperity than it has ever before known. Served 'Em Right. Speculators in the necessaries of life are deservedly coming to grief. In Chicogo a combination of men, who undertook to monopolize the grain mar ket of the country, went under with a crash, and indications of a like fate to the specu lators in produce are manifesting themselves in the city of New York. A similar Jresult may be anticipated in other . articles. For instance, large supplies of State and Wes tern butter are being offered in the Eastern markets without buyers, the demand for shipment having been checked by late for eign advices. There has also been a heavy decline in pork, and dealers are chary about keeping large stocks on hand. There is no species of speculation that savors so strong ly of total depravity as a combination to run up the prices of the necessaries of fife, and no one ought to pity those who sustain los ses by engaging in such wicked schemes. FaoM Jamaica. The late news from Ja maica, alleging that several thousand ne groes accused of being implicated in the re cent riots have been hung, seems almost too horrible for belief, and if it had not been foreshadowed by previous intelligence would scarcely gain credence anywhere. The au thorities of Great Britain a country whose writers continually boast of her humanity and denounce the slightest acts of severity in otherlandshave for comparatively slight provocation.perpetrated the most fearful le galized butcher" that has disgraced the age. We now see how our late mentors in the art of subduing a rebellion treat insurgents with in their own dominions; and what a con trast their exam pie, at wl ich the world shud d3rs,affords to their advice and to our policy. Encouraging About the Freedmen. Reports now arriving at the Bureau of Ref ugees. Freedmen, &c, give encouraging ac counts of the manner in which the business of the Bureau is carried on in the Southwest ern States. Hospitals and camps are being provided for the sick freedmen, and a large number have Been established. Houses are being furnished antLwork supplied to great numbers ot the idle and suffering. The number of those supported by the Govern ment is daily diminishing as the Freedmen gradually fall into employment, and are thus converted from idle consumers to producers.

Could that State induce the non- resident land holders, who own all the valuable vacant lands, that originally cost but seven cents per acre, to sell, the progress of the first born of the rebellion, in wealth, education and general prosperity would be rapid and glorious.

That will be news to a great many people, who are un der the impression they attended its funeral last fall Congressional Proceedings. ; In the Senate, on the 13th, the resolu tion calling lor information in regard to the employment of persous in the Treasury De partment, who have not taken the oath of allegiance, and whether there are persons employed and paid for offices not provided by Jaw, was taken up, amended and passed. Mr. Wilson called up a bill to protect the freedmen in the lately rebellious States. It declares that all laws heretoiore in force in such States, whereby and inequality of civil rights and immunities among the inhabi tants, on account of race and color, exist, are null and void. In the House, Mr. Schenck reported a joint resolution that the President be requested to suspcud any ordr mustering out the officers of the Veteran Reserve Corps until Congress shall have time to consider the subject and take some legislative action as to the future disposition to be made of said Corps. After some de bate the resolution, under the operation of the previous question, was passed, yeas 111; nays 50. Mr. Steven's resolution, as amend ed by the Senate, was taken up and . passed without debate ; also one directing the Com mittee on the death of President Lincoln to take into consideration the expendiency of completing the Washington Monument, and dedicating it to the memories of both Washington and Lincoln.

A resolution was passed to inquire into the expediency ot establishing a National Bureau of Educa tion without limit of race or color. On mo tion of Mr. Wilson of Iowa, the House adopted a resolution substantially the same as the latter clause ot the fctevens resolution rejected by the Senate, providing that all papers relating to claimants from the Rebel States, be referred without debate to the Joint Committee of Fifteen, and that no persons be admitted as representatives from such States till the final report of that Com mittee.

A resolution, giving the opinion that the Con stitution should be so amended as to pre vent any State, lately in rebellion, from be ing entitled to representation in Congress until it adopts an amendment adverse to paying the rebel debt and the late owners of slaves tor those who were set free, was also referred to the same committee. Among the bills introduced were one , repealing all laws pending'or fixed bounties: one to pro vide for the consolidation of the Indian tribes ; one amending certain sections of the national banking law j one preventing any person holding office in Utah who advocates polygamy.

The Jamaica Revolt. Considerable difference of opinion exists in the Eng lish press and amongst the public res pecting the course which has been pursued in Jamaica toward the blacks. On the one haudv it is asserted that the Governor and authorities had no alternative but to act with the severity with which they did, for any show of clemency, any faltering, timid policy in the hour of danger, would have involved the whole island in a general con flagration. On the other hand it is main- I tamed that the sheddiusrot blood was nced- I lessly severe that there was no premedita ted scheme of rising, and that the outbreak might have been safely put down without having recourse to measures of cruelty which are a disgrace to British soldiers and to the civil representatives of the British Crown. The execution of Mr. Gordon, more especial!', is condemned, and his for cible removal from Jamaica, which was not under martial law' to the eaiAorn part of the island, where martial law existed, in order to have him tried and instantly exe cuted, was 'in act of atrocious barbarity, and in every sense and phase illegal and unconstitutional. The religious bodies the Methodists, Baptists, and others arc strongly moved by sympathy with the blacks, and the subject will certainly occupy much consideration in Parliament when it nicets. Meetings in most of the large towns in England are about to be organized. Proofs of Nfuteralitt . Like the wicked confronted at all points with the ev idences of their guilt, the British, and, in some instances, the French, are continually convicted of bad faith towards this nation, by proof they cannot impeach. For instance, the four-inch plate iron, twenty seven inch es wide by seven feet 'along, with which the casemates of the rebel ram. Stonewall, is plated, has the French trademark of a roll ing mill at Tours. Her guns and mahogo ny gun-carriages are marked Sir William Armstrong, Newcastle upon Tyne, England ; and t he dials are indicators in the casemates, by which the motion of her machinery are regulated whilst the vessel is in action, are marked in Danish. Although built in France, she also has a paicof patent Eng lish an? hor bits, which appear to be a very good pattern, t Death of Hon. Thomas Corwin. This distinguished statesman, died at the Ohio State Agency Rooms in Washington, on December ISth, 1865. Mr. Corwin fill ed a number of honorable and responsible public positions during his life. He was Governor of Ohio, United States Senator, Member of Congress, Secretary of the Trea sury, and Minister to Mexico in all which stations he gave satisfaction to his constitu ents, and conferred honor upon his country men. As a stump speaker he was unequal ed in oratorical variety and wit, and will long be remembered as the "wagon boy" of Ohio. director of the United States Mint at Philadelphia made for the Secretary of the ! .treasury specimens of eagles, half eagles, dollars, halves and quarters, bearing the motto, "In God we trust," in addition to the other legen ls and devices upon the coins. Secretary MeCulloch approves the designs, and the coin hereafter made will bear the motto. The smaller coins do not afford room for the words. Senator Fessenden, of Maine, appointed on the Joint Committee of Congress to pre pare a testimonial of respect for the memory of President Lincoln, served on a similar committee appointed after the President Harrison. Senator Howard was also of that committee in 1841, both gen tlemen being theo members of the House, Slavery Abolished. The Secretary of State of the United States, ha3 issued his proclamation, announcing that the requisite two-thirds of the States of the Union had ratified the amendment to the Constitution, whereby slavery is abolished in this fair land of ours. Freedom now reigns triumphant in every part of the United States. Capt.

Geo, Auger hag confirmed his sentence. The Test Oath and Pardons. Two very important cases are pending in the Su preme Court of the United States. One of them involves the constitutionality of the act of Congress prescribing a test oath to certain persons in the late rebel States, and the other the important question whether the pardon of the President remits a decree ot forfeiture of rebel property and rein states in the pardoned man his rights to said property. It is well that these ques tions are taken to the Supreme Court for final adjudication, for there is a great deal of varient practice under them by our mili tary officers administering some of the affairs of the Southern States. TlTere is great ne cessity for making this uniform. Before tfcye judges of that venerated tribunal the questions referred to will receive fulL and impartial consideration. The judges are se questered from the strife and passions exci ted by partisau conflicts, and honoc their de cisions on quasi political subjects not only settle the law, but are received with pro found respect. Mississippi on Negroes. The Legisla ture has passed a law defining the legal status of the negro and securing to him his rights in the courts. The first section, in good ami smooth terms. -enacts that the ne gro shall have the rights and privileges of white men, may sue and be sued, give testi mony, buy and sell, and do a thousand oth er things that other men do. So much for the first section. The section which follows is a "horse of another color." It commen ces with "'provided," and by the exceptions it makes re-enacts virtually the old slave code. The law is an outrageous deception aud fraud, and so far from securing to the negro a single right, denies to him every rifht known to freedom. It is now the law of the State, but we are iuformed that Gen eral Howard has directed that it must be disregarded, and h'as instructed his subordi nates to pay no attention to it.
