NEW YORK H — %® destroy the confidence of the army in its best generals should be allowed to hold office under it. The motive of such conduct is certainly not to restore the Union, and the difference between it and open disloyalty is more constructive than otherwise. If it be right to reward men like Mr. Taylor, what will be our justification by and by for "punishing the traitors who are aiming at the sume end, though by differeny means? A House or Recerrion FoR THe Returning Votunreers.—We are sure that the national feeling is in favor of every reasonable provision being made for the comfort of the sick and wounded volunteers returning from the seat of war; and as there will doubtless be many such passing through this city from time to time during the continuance of the war, we suggest that a house of reception should be established ‘for them here without delay. It is the duty of ‘the War Department to take the matter in hand, and we trust we shall speedily hear of a resting place of the kind being provided for the brave men, who have suffered in their -country’s cause. When the sick and wounded from Newbern arrived in this city a few days ago, those who were without homes here had -no place of shelter to which they could resort without expense; and as many of them had but little or no money, and a journey to the New England States still before them, they suffered great hardship, especially those who, frém want of medical attendance, were unable to get their wounds dressed. ‘{t will not only be a reproach to the country at large, but to the humanity of the wealthy citizens of New York, if such suffering as those poor fellows from North Carolina endured in our midst is allowed to go unrelieved. We are a charitable peuple, and the soldier ought not to be left to the mercy of individual benevolence, but be comfortably cared for by the government, or, failing that, while in this city, some provision should be made by the Corpo- cation. If even any charitable association would devote itself to the good work, pending other action on the subject, our citizens, we are sure, would promptly respond to any call for subscriptions to aid the undertaking. By all means let something be done, and that quickly, Perrrioninc §=FYoR THE REMOVAL oF Mr. ‘Weties—We observe that a petition to the President for the removal of Secretary Welles thas been placed ,in the Merchants’ Exchange and Newsroom in Boston, and extensively signed by the merchants there; and it isrumored that similar petitions are to be prepared in this cityand Philadelphia. The utility of any such ‘proceeding is, however, very questionable. Whatever may be the shortcomings of the pre- vent Secretary of the Navy—and we have fre- quently had occasion to refer to them—we may reat assured that the President is perfectly cognizant of the same, and that when the proper moment for the change arrives he will act towards the Navy Department as quickly as he did not long ago with regard to the War De- partment. Tug Reviving Union SENTIMENT IN THE Souru.—Of late political arrests have been very numerous in the South, and the Southern jails are, it is said, being rapidly filled with"traitors.” This is evidence enough that the Union senti- ment in the rebellious States is boldly pro- claiming itself, and it will not be long ‘before the persecuted inmates of Southern cells will be liberated, to find the rebellion, against which they had the courage to protest, utterly crushed, and the proud emblem of liberty restored to the States which are now the prey of anarchy, tyranny and ruin. Improvement or Broapway.—If our Legisla ture at Albany wishes to do something really for the common benefit of this city, we hope it will provide in the Tax bill for paving Broadway with the Belgian pavement from Seventeenth street to the Central Park, instead of scheming to ruin that great thoroughfare for the exclusive advantage of aset of political harpies by the establishment of a railroad through it. The turpitude of the times demands the utmost vigi- lance to prevent mischief and promote objects really desirable. Ratt.:oap Jons 1x Concress Np THE LeGrsia- rurr.—The railroad lobbyists at Washington are being pitched into by the abolition press of New York. Evidently they do not know how to manage these organs, and ought to take les- sons of the Albany lobby. Send on a few shares of stock, and see how quiet the abolition editors will be. The Albany lobbyists did this; and look at the result. The Tribune and Times never say a word against the Broadway Rail- road, and may, by the same means, be kept equally silent about the Washington affair. Som Toran or an Aporition Mason GEneRaL.— A San Francisco paper sums up General I're- mont as follows:—“He was a statesman who had never made a speech, a general who had never won a battle, a pathfinder who always missed the track, and a millionaire not worth a continental damn.” “Dawon Ap Pytmas” axp “Tux DRamatist’”’” at Nmo's Garpary.—The combination company of Messrs.

Arrival of the Prize Steamer Magnolia Loaded with Cotton. Additional Details Relative to Her Capture. Two Other Cotton Loaded Ves- sels Captured. Operations of the Union Squadron in the Mississippi. List of Prize Vessels Before the District Court at Key West, &e., &e., &o. ‘The rebel steamer Magnolia, Lieutenant James Parker commanding—a prize to the United States steamers Brooklyn and South Carolina—arrived at this port yester- day from Key West, which port sho left on the 25th ult. at ten A. M. She has one thousand and fifty bales of cotton. She has been condemned at that port, and ‘has come here tor sale. The following account of the capture of the Magnolia will be found interesting:—At half-past six o'clock A. M. of February 19, it then being foggy, the Magnolia made her escape through Pass-a-l’Outre, Mississippi river. The fog lifted just as she was passing the United States steamer Brooklyn, which vessel was thon engaged in the blockade of that pass, and the latter im- modiately slipped her cable and started in chaso. The Morcedita also gave chase, The Magnolia had got a start of three or four miles before the Brooklyn could got up suflicient stoam to goat any speed, and made every endeavor to got to windward of the latter. Captain Craven, however, managed his vessel (the Brooklyn) admirably, and the Magnolia soon seeing that dodge wouldn’t work, changed her course and ran for Mobile. ‘At about ten o'clock A.M. the Brooklyn bad gained suf- ficiently to open fire from her guns, and the shot were from that time to the moment of the capture flying thick and cloge about the Magnolia. Captain Shannon, of the Jatter, with a pertinacity worthy of a better cause, re- fesed to surrender, being determined not to give up, as he afterwards said, so long as his veesol was untouched, or a hope of escape remained. It is perfectly wonderful that so many shots were fired without any of them taking effect; and the fact that the Brooklyn’s crew were nearly all men who had hardly ever before fired a gun, furnishes the sole explanation. ‘She had been in commission but a few weeks. ‘At half-past two P. M. the blockading vessels off Mo- Dile—tho steamers South Carolina, Huntaville and gun- Doat Itasca—discovered the flying vessel, and soon after- wards the Brooklyn, in chase. They all got under way, and were observed from the Magnolia. The South Caro- lina was blockading the ontrances to Mobile Bay, to tho westward of Sand Island lighthouse; the other two ves- Seis those to the eastward. As the chance of escaping two vessels was not 80 good asthat of escaping ono» Captain Shannon, changed the course of the Magnolia to the northwest, hoping to run by the South Carolina and get his vecsel on shore. The South Carolina, though broken down and almost disabled, had still enough of Aldon’s energy in him to block this game, and, oponing her fire, the Magnolia soon found her shots ocming so close to her that, to use Captain Shannon's words, ‘It was no use a-tryin’ any longer;”’ and so—according to @ plan arranged before leaving New Orleans—they at. tempted to destroy her. Blowing up the boilers was nog apart of the original plan. Somo of her pumps had been plugged up before she sailed; and her water pipes wero cut, and the appliances for ‘closing them broken off, and other measures that it was thovght would inevitably sink her were aken. Sho was sot on fire in several places in her fire room and t her cotton. and cans of turpentine were found on some bales and barrels of rosin broken amongst othe:s. Just as these preparations were made, the second engineer, a Mr. Wilde, proposed to Gaptain Shannon to blow up the boilers. ‘Tho latter aseented, and the expicsion was soon heard. All hands then deserted her, and in a drenching rain pulled in tho Douts to the South Carolina, and surrendered themselves as prisoners. On the way to tho latter Captain Shannon observed that the vessel was not sinking, and tried to induce his men to return, that they might complete tho refused to go back. work of destruction. yng go 5 ty mon, headed by Lieutenant By this time a James Parker, of the South Carolina, had got on board. He was the first on board, and the first object that met his view was the misorable man who iad propcaed the explosion, seaided portectly white, delirious and dy- ing. He had puid for his temerity and folly with his lite, and was the only oce of al! on board who ured. His wife and four children left unprovided for, furnish another quota of misery to be laid at tho door of the wicked fostigatora of this rebellion. Wilde died that night, and a few days thereafter the chaplain of the Ni- ogara said over his grave at Ship is'and (whore he lies side by side with those whose lives have been given to their country) the solemn service of the Episcopal chureh for the burial of the dead. The ia was soon put to rights; the leaks stopped and bp out, and that night the South Carolina towed her to Ship Island, where she was repaired and sent to Key Weat. By decree of the Prize Court there she has been condemned, and sent here forsale. At the time o. ber capture she had on board about one thousand and fifty bales of cotton, which she brings hore also for sile, She left Key West on Tuesday , 25th ult., and though sho has but one boiler thatcan be used, she made the passage insixdays.

The Rebel Steamer Magnolia in Our Harbor. ‘Tho steamer Magnolia, recently the property of the rebels, came to anchor opposite the Battery yesterday morning. She was the object of considcrable intorest to all who were acquainted with her character and the service in which she had recently been engaged. The Magnolia brings @ cargo of cotton, which will be disposed of by M. J. ©. Clapp, United States Marshal at Key West, who came to this city on board of the vessel, The captured steamer, at first glance presents rather a clumsy looking appearance, but it is said that she is quito staunch, and can be made very useful to the government, after some few necessary alterations. Part of her works are ont of or- dor, but her engie is in first class condition. Sho is paint. ea a dark color. and her whole appearanco indicates that she has soen bard service in her time. The Magnolia is stated to be quite a fast sailer, and of so light a draught that she cau enter almost any water with comparative safety.

Her between-decks and compartments for storage are large and airy; her engine room, cabins, berths, &c., are in perfect order,and with a heavy armament placed on hoard, which she is well fitted to carry, the Magnolia would prove quite an acquisition to our naval service. Yesterday afternoon the steamtug Active went along- side, in order to take off some of her cotton, which wiil at once be sold at anction—tho of course, to into the coffers of our national treasury. She will brought to the Navy Yard as soon as possible, in order to have the necessary repairs made to make her tit for active service, should the government decide upon pur- chasing her.

T from whieh port she had escaped two days before, and is loaded with two hundred and eight bales of cotton. There was a most exciting chase bo- fore she was taken. Several shells were fired at her, and not until hey burst between her masts did she con- deecend to heave too, She was commanded by Robert May, an Apalachicola pilot,and was brought here by Act- ing Master's Mates D. C. Kells , of the Uuited States brig Bohio, Who was prize master of the schooner Eugenia Smith, and on his way as passenger on board the Pinola to rejoin his vessel, when the Cora was captured. He is evidently lucky in the way of taking prizes. By the ora we have important intelligence from the Mississippi river. She sailed from Pass-a-l’Outre on the 18th instant, at noon, and at that time the Hartford and Brooklyn were at the head of the Passes, and evidently eugaged with the onemy, for very heavy firing was heard in that direction. Iam gratified that the ball has fairly opened in the Gulf, and I assure you it will not be long betes news of the most exciting ‘character ia on its way forth. We hear, also, of the capture of a schooner with five hundred bales of cotton on board, by the United States gunboat Owasco, Lioutenant Guest commanding. This schooner was also out of Apalachicola, and was taken about sixty miles from the land, The Pinola was in sight at tho time and of course comes in for a share of the prize money.

The Litt of Suits Now Before the United States District Court for Adjudication—Judye Marvin Presides at the Bench—Value of the Captures Nearly Half a Million of Dollars. Suit against the following vessels and their cargoes, cap- tured by our naval yossels in the Gulf of Moxico during the past two months, have been commenced in the Dis- trict Court of the United Statos, which holds its session at Key West, in which the United States are a party, or bave an interost. Hon. William Marvin is the judgo of this court, and decides the cases as evidence deduced from the examination of witnesses brought before the Prizo Commissioner, George D. Allon, Eaq.; some of the cases in tho following list have beon condemned, and ‘othera have yet to await the decision of the judge. The most difficult suits brought before the court are those where the claimants attempt to prove their neutrality. All such have so-called British provisional registers, and it requires careful discrimination in the decision of such cases, to bring violators of the blockade to justice, and still avoid leaving troublesome questions behind for diplomatists to settle. Judge Marvin is abundantly able todo this; and his decisions, therefore, have given vory general satisfaction. Severalof tho vessels now in the custody of the Marshal will, probably, be restored to the claimants for want of sufficient and positive proof, al- though there is no doubt that they intended torun the blockade bad an opportunity |.

It is gonerally believed that the United States will adopt some arrangement whereby the interest upon these claims shall be socured for a tern of years; but it would bo well to have those claims wel sifted before apy definite action 1s taken. It may not be generally known that the reprosentatives of both England and France are personally deoply interested in the claims against Moxico. Saligny, the French Minister, is the agent of a Swise house who hold a ctaim of four million dollars againat Moxico, which Sali; ceeded in getting added to the list of cl Kang ish officials represent no less than seventeen milli ns. of the Engiish claims. Those are the parties that have beon the main cause of this intervention. Had England and France been honestly and disinterestedly represent. d here they would not have found it necessary to have sont armed forces here for the cotlection of their just jebts. It is very doubtful if the conferonce at Orizaba accom- plishes anything, and if the French attempt to occupy the city of Mexico by force they will find they have greatly underrated the Mexican soldier; for the idea that ® Mexican will not bs | is not to be entertained for a moment. Eight thousand French are oxpected here on the 15th. Tho weather is quite warm, but healthy. Co- Jone! Pickett, the Commissioner for the Confederate States, left here on the 4th for Tampico, on his way to New Orleans. It is vory quiet here; people are waiting to see what will be done at Urizaba. Goneral Uraga is ia prison in the city of Mexico, and is to be tried by a court martial. Arrival of Rebel Prisoners ‘of War at Fort Delaware. OUR PHILADELPNIA CORRESPONDENCE, Pweapereaa, March 21, 1862 Two hundred and twonty prisoners of war, captured at Winchestor, Virginia, arrived at Delaware City to day, and wero to have been taken immediately to Fort Dela. ware, & powerful stone fortification on the Pea Patch Island, in the middle of the Delaware bay. They were the same prisoners that had been previously confined at Baltimore, in the city jail. By order of the War Department, they wero snipped on Saturday tn an Ericsson or canal steamer, and trans- ported through the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, under guard, toDelaware City. It was supposed to. that they would be janded immedi it the Fort, 96 ‘The Pea Patch is a large istand, i stands Fort Delawaro, one of the best country, mounting three ti It is two miles. from the fort to either shore, and the island contains a number of residences, outside of tho fort, so that it can be made a prison p'ace for at lenst a thousand prisoners, The present inatalment will be confined within the stone fortress. ‘The garrison of the place cousists of a company of regulars and a few itinerant parties of artillerists that g0 down to the Pea Patch to practice artillery evolutions. One of tho prisoners is Bushrod ©, Washington, a nephew of the 1a el John A. Washington.

Names of the Dead—Esxtent of the Injury to Property— Four Additional Kzplosions. ‘The funerals of some of the victims of the Jackson cartridge factory explosion are being held to-day. Jack Son’s son and two men, named Benjamin ¥. Whittaker and Richard J, Heuston, have been buried; and Yarball Bailey, aged sixty years; H. L. Sinnickson, aged twenty- two years, and John Morney, aged twenty-three years, have since died, The list of burned and maimed foots up to eighty-five, of whom probably fifteen will die, and others will be maimed, disfigured and invalid for lifo. Some of those who are injured suffer the most excruciating agonies, as in the case of Annie Lynch, an interesting and handsome girl, who has lost both eyes. Many of the victims have been pierced with bullets, the charges of the cartridges,and not a few were maimed and knocked down with pioces of bricks and seantling. ‘The following is a complete list of the wounded — Washington Black, Anne Hation, Augustin Curtin Heuston, John Logue, Samuel Gritfiths, Lewis Brown, Chartes Griffiths, Joseph Mirkle, Mary Griffiths, HL.

Grains of powder were constantly strewn over the p'ace, and a hot stove was ordinarily inaintained in the main work room. The room itself was crowded, and with the hot air, the heat evolved by the fric- tion of machinery, etc., the establishment was, of all in tho world, the one least fitted for the dangerous work to which it had been adapted. ‘The scones at the hospital where many of the sufferer are undergoing treatment, are harrowing in the cx- treme. The w of the victims are treated with soothing lotions, but their cries are very pitiful, and many of them beg to die, that they may be relieved from thoir intense suffering. Within the last thirty-six hours five explosions have occurred in the city. A cap machine the Bridesburg Arsenal exploded, severely injuring two men, and a fuse casc burst at tho same place. ‘To-day a kerosene or coal oil factory exp'odod, and two men were fatally injured, involving a loss to the remises of $5,000; and a miner explosion occurred in Race streot, By the Jackson explosion much damage was done to property. Ten houses on Tenth street were materially injured and twenty-seven dwel.ings and stores on Pas- sayunk road. Boiler Explosion at Baltimore. Barrmorg, March 31, 1862. A most remarkable steam boiler explosion occurred this afternoon at the Baltimore House of Refuge. A boiler in the boiler houso attached to the bake house, 250 feet from the main building, was blown up fully 200 fect in the air; then taking an casterly direction, exploding again in the air, after which it passed in # straight line 250 feet to the north, and fell directly on the roof of the school building, carrying with it its slate roof, rafters, Deams and plaster, crushing through inte the school- room, whore there wore nearly seventy boys.

Police Intelligence. Wuorxsare Arrest or Liccor Dyatens.—Seventeen liquor dealers, in tho Fighth, Ninth and Fifteenth wards, wore brought before Justice Kelly, at the Jefferson Mar- ket Polico Court, yesterday, on charge of violating the Sunday law. The prisoners were held to bail, exch in tho sum of $100, to answer the charge bofore the Court of General Sessions. About a dozen persons, arrested in the lower wards, were disposed of in a similar manner at the Tombs. ‘Tak ALunceD Extortiox Casr.—The case of the People vs. Grigg and Van Loon atill drags its weary length along.” The examination was continued yostorday, but beyond ‘the cross examination of one of witnesses for the de- fence, nothing important was elicited.
