Hy On Wednesday, the 21st ibst., while the gunboats above aamed were engaged in shelling a party of rebels on Coleg Island, they discovered two rebel fortifications, which the rebels termed respegtively Fort Pickens and Fort Palmetto. They are sit on the eastern shore of the island, and directly ite Bird Key, where the Stono and Kiawah “ rivers are united. From Fort Pickens—which located about two miles te the north of Fort Palmetto—a fire of musketry was opened on the gunboats, which responded in their usual manner by sending a couple of sholls into the midst of the rebel Works. They were ac- curately directed, and the effect of the ‘‘rotten shot’ was discouraging as well as damaging to tho occupants of the fort. The rebel rag was at onee lowered, tho flag staff ehopped down, and the barracks—wooden buildings! ‘some twelve or fifteen in number—at once deserted and fired. A party from the Pembina,on landing, foundthat the enemy had made good their eseape, managing to‘hau, off their guns and munitions, bub leaving, as at Manas- sas, number of “Quakers,” moodily and harmlessly pointing from the embrasures. On the following aay (the 22d inst.) a party from the Coast Survey steamer Bibb, Captain Boutelle, made a significant capture some five milés rurther up the Stono. While Messrs, Bradford and Boyd, with six men, were making @ survey of the enemy’s works at Battery Island (or more properly John’s Island), one of the men disco- vered, not far from the fortification, the glimmer of a musket, and, looking more closely discovered a gray clad rebel just ‘‘drawiig a bead” on Mr..Boyd. Cocking his pistol he boldly ran up and demanded tha: the individual should surrender. His request was retuctantiy"complied with, and the chivalrous South Carolinian iaid down hiS shooting iron. He wa one of eight pickets stationed at the battery, and a further examination resulted in the Pagging of five of his comrades, the other two having eluded the vigilance Of our party and escaped. This capture reflects mich credit on Messrs. Brad ford, 4 and their’ men, as “only a por. tion of were armed, and a squad of rebel videttes, not a quarter of a mile distant, who scampered Of at the first sightof the Unionists,might easily have tho entire party had they beengo disposed.

Mr. Goocat, (rep.) of Mass., reported from the Com- mittee on Foreign Affairs the Senate bill for the recogni- tion of the independence of Hayti and Liberia aud the establishment of diplomatic relations with them. He quoted the assertion of President Lincoln, in his annuat message, that if any good reason exists why we should persevere longer in withholding our re. cognition of Hayti and Liberia, he was una- bie to discern it. Justice requires this act on the part of this government. There w certainly no people on whom it is more incumbent to do all that can be done to oducate, develope and improve the moral, intellectual and social position. race than our own, ane no government or people have it {go much in \their powor to ald and assist these two re- pubilcs in their steuggle to obtain a higher intelligence, a better civilization, a more periect governmeut. Each of them has a government like our own—institutions do- signod and iniended to be like ours. The establishment of dipiomatic relations between vur government and these republics will afford them the most favorable opportunities over American territory. Tho rebellion has, for the time being, alinost silenced the voice of our government among the Powers of the world. If anything wore needed to unite or strengthen the people of the loyal ‘States in the determination to eflectenlly crvsh out the rebellion, it would be the ay Position of our gov- ernment in this respect. + Gooch proceeded to de- monstrate that the commercial interests of our people domand the recognition of Hayti and Liberia, quoting nu- merous siat istics showing our trade with theso republics. to familiarize themselves with the theory and practice of our government, and thereby enabie them to iinprove and perfect their own.’ Mr. stated the politi- cal reasons for ostal g iutimate diplomatic relations with those republics, especially with Hayti, which should not be permitted to fall back into the possession of any European power. The @x)erience of the past few months has taught us very foreibly that the ruling Powers of Europo have little sympathy with us or our institut and that they will not hesitate to impro what seems to them a favorable opportunity to recover lost power and jurisdiction ‘The adaptation of Hayti for cotton culture was treated upon, and its flelds will furnish homes to the blacks of this country who desire to better thoir condition by emi- grating to & more congouial climate and soil, whero they ‘will be relioved of all the political and social disabilities to which they are here sibjected. In recognizing the independence of Haytt Liberia, we follow the exam- pie of the leading Powers of the world. Petition after petition bas asked it, aud there is no valia reason why the prayer of the petitioners should not be granted, Men of all partios desire the recognition of the two go- verdments. Justice, sound pohcy, political wisdom and the example of other governments demanded that we recognize the indepeudence of Hayti and Liberia, and that in our intercourse with thein we place them oi the same footing as other independent nations. Mr. Cox, (opp.) of Ohio, offered a substitute, proposing that there be appointed Consul Geucrals to negotiate treatios of commerce with Hayti and Liberia. The ob- ject designed was not so much to increase commerce, bat ‘to givo a sort of dignity and equality to those republics, because their citizens happen to be black. He argued the Consuls were the more ato agents to promote the interests of commerce, the gentleman from Massachurotts whether he expecied a mivister in return from Hayti, Mr. Goocn said he wished to pot Hayti on tho same —— as other inde;endent nations, and if that ropablic should send a minister he should receive him the same ‘ag England and Franco will d Mr. Cox said Hayti debarred all whites from office. As a uence sha would send a negro minister hore. all the rights and dignities of Lord Lyons and Count Mercier. Mr. Feseaxpen, (rep.) of Me., wished to know what objection the gentic: from Ubio had to that. Mr, Gox paid that he objected because it raised the black man to an equality of the white. He had thought the government nade for whitemoen. Ho recol- lected that th itioman from Maino (Mr. Fessonden) said something jike this the other day, namely :—‘Ho waaia Nib that the Union should not be restored than Uh ery be continued.” The gentioman would de. the Commonwealth for the purpose of getting ata vi man. Mr. Cox, in his argument, said that the people of; Hayti' had not the force to rise = atiove ance, corruption and super- atinon for the last twenty years, The . only object.was to drese up the negro minister, who might be sont hither in gold and lace, with tight leggings and shoe ‘Duckies of the old style, and perhaps put @ wig on his head and send him to the White House to be tho laugh. ing stock of all who congregate there. He was not to be cousidered $6 much the representative of Hayti as of the free negroes of this city, and to whom they would look ‘as the god of their idolatry. Mr. Bwp.e, (opj) of Pa., said the present condition of the African race, andthe momentous political question connected with it, should induce the House to reject the bill, which was a part of a policy which contributed to sever the Union, aod it is the greatest obstacle to its restoration, aud to the successful proceoution of the war.
