I never remember at any time seeing any custom house officer aboard this vessel. x remained aboard the vessel os pay master from tbe time I joined her, as before stated, until the 23th day of January, 1808, at which time she was lying at Port Royal, Ja maica. The first port we vent into after leaving: the Western Islands was Port Royal, Martin ique, where we went to provision and coaL The bark Agrippina was lying with coala for ns, being the same vessel that took ont the armament. Wc did not provision or coal there, but we went ont and afterwards met the Agrippina at the Island of Blanco, be longing to Venezuela. Wo duly took in coal there. We then proceeded to Areas Keys, near Yucatan Banks, where we lay about ten days; where we painted the ship and recoaled from the Agrippina, and gave the men a run on shore. „ , . . We thence steered for Galveston, where we destroyed the United States gunboat Hat (eras, which, was the last vessel we destroyed beiorc I left her. As soon as we got the pris oners from the Hatteras on board, we started straight for Jamaica (Port Royal). There we provisioned, coaled and repaired ship. All I the twenty-three ships which we had burned j or destroyed had been so burned or destroyed in the interval between our leaving the West ern Islands and steering for Port Royal. I heard of no objection from the authorities in Jamaica to our repairing, coaling or I provisioning the ship in Tort Royal; but, on 1 the contrary, we were received with all cour tesy and kindness. We were there about a week. WhiUt we were there the English Ad miral at Port Royal paid a visit to Captain I gfcmmcs on board the Alabama. I was on 1 shore on duty at the time of the visit; but I beard of such visit immediately upon my re turned to the ship, for It was the subject of much conversation and remark amongst the officers; and. in particular, I remember Mr. Sinclair, the master, speaking of it. I also know that Captain Semmes paid a return visit to the Emrllsh Admiral on the day tbat the Alabama left Port Royal. I myself saw him start for the purpose. My connection 1 with the ship terminated at Port Royal, and I I subsequently came to England, where I or -1 rived on 22d March, 1563. CuUIENCE B. XONGE, Canadian Emlgntton DlKOuraged, The Archbishop of Qnbec and the Bishop of St Hyaeinthc have both issued pastoral letters to discountenance emigration to the United States. They assert that French Can adians. although ostensibly engaged for labor in connection with railroads or other iudus tiial enterprises, are forced into the ranks of the Northern army as soon as they cross the lines. This, assertion has often been made, although no authentic proof of It has vet ieen submitted. The only foundation for it, probably, is the attempt, too often successfully made, to got men intoricatcd, and then induce them to enlist— Toronto 1 Qldt e, Ftb. 1. Bayonets an Radical. General McNeil,' in a speech welcoming the return of Missouri veterans to St Louis, said: I and many others have stood here, the faithful sentinels over every man’s negro.— They dared this rebellion In order to open the slave trade; they were afraid of the growth oi population in this great bread growing country, and broke the contract un der which we worked faithfully, and when they broke that contract,'! said we would make a new contract which would wipe out slavery. (Cheers.) I never should have in terfered— 1 was a Conservative in times of peace I always have been a Conservative.— I thank God my lather gave me a trade, and when he sent me out he said he was putting a loaf of bread under my arm. I never asked for public office; I felt conservative*, I felt like sustaining everything that kept peace and quietness between our neighbors. When this 'war came I said we win have a new deal entirely, and before this war is done we will do away with the cause of it. You may sup- Eoee I am diverging into the line ' of politics, nt in this war a soldier cannot talk without getting into politics; everything Is political, and bayonets are radicaL Explosion or the Bennington Ponder The Troy Times of Monday lost says: About six o’clock this morning, just os the Troy and Boston train was leaving Benning ton for Troy, an explosion took place at the mills of tho Bennington powder company, a mile from the East village. There were five : separate, distinct reports attending the ex plosion, but, fortunotely, not n person was injured by the accident Four buildings wore destroyed—two wheel mills, solid structures, containing machinery, the press-house and corning mill. The cause of the accident is not known. Every care was taken in the manufacture of powder to guard against such occurrences and protect the workmen. There were only about twenty-five barrels of pow der in the mills that were destroyed. In tho village of Bennington tho sound of the accident resembled a series of earthquakes. Residents fancied their houses were about tumbling upon their beads. At Troy, thirty miles away, the noise was heard. At North Adams, twenty-two miles off, plates were jarred from tables and glasses broken. Particulars of tbe Illness or Stephens. The Richmond Enquirer of January 19th has the following: “ "We arc pained to announce that Mr. Hi dell, secretary to Vice President Stephens, yesterday received a telegram from Augusta, announcing the sudden and serious illness of Mr. Stephens at his home at Crawfordsvilie, Ga. He was attacked on Monday morning, and sent on that day to Augusta for a physi cian. This attack, with the known state of his health during the winter, has created seri ous apprehension In the minds of his friends. “ lie was prevented from coming to Rich mond at the beginning of the session of Con gress by the serious illness of his brother, the Hon. Linton Stephens*, atMUledgsvtile; then by his own feeble health and the severity of the weather. When again ready to start for Richmond his brother was a second time very severely attacked, which delayed his coming over a week. He was a third time ready to leave, and would, no doubt, have started to tills city yesterday morning but for this un timely attack. Should he recover, as we trust he will, It Is altogether probable he will be unable to visit Richmond daring the winter.” Fan Among tbe Prisoners* A private letter received a few days since from A. D. Richardson, correspondent of the New York Tribune, now a prisoner in Castle Thunder, at Richmond, relates the following: Occasionally we have a hit of fun. The other night we tried our Commissary who distributes the rations in our room, for “mal feasance in office,” for only issuing soup when he ought to issue meat, and pocketing the difference. Two of the correspondents were counsel for prosecution and defense, and I occupied the bench. A slip from a Richmond paper being objected to os testi mony, it was decided In any newspaper must be true, and. was com petent evidence in this court There was a good deal of remarkable testimony, and still more remarkable law. quoted in English, Latin, French and Greek. The Commissary was finally found guilty, and after on address upon the enormity of the offense, sentenced to take a quart of his own soup at one meal. Counsel were fined for contempt of court; Jurors placed under arrest for going to sleep; when the spectators become boisterous, the Sheriff was ordered to clear the Court House, and daring certain testimony the ladies were requested to with draw. Altogether It was very droll, and a good many were sore with laughter the next morning.
