General Hatch Regulating the Labor Question, &., &. &e., Caaxzston, & C., July 1, 1865. OBNERAL KR. RIPLEY arrived here last Wednesday, and is an applicant for Procial pardon. HON, WILLIAM D. PORTER, forthe last six years President of the State Senate, is another exception and applicant for executive clemency, ARRIVAL OF THE ALHAMBRA, ‘The steamship Alhambra arrived bere about noon on ‘Wednesday, several hours behind time, having hada very rough passage, and colliding with the schooner Wonder, Captain Smith, from Nuevitas, Cuba, bound to New York. The schooner was instantly sunk, and Cap- tain Smith and two passengers lost, The Alhambra ex- perienced a great shock, causing for a time much confa- sion among the passengers, She sustained but very little injury. I append the statements of the officers and pass ngers:— STATEMENT OF AN OFFICER, About half-past three A, M. on the 26th inst. , the steam- ship Alhambra, bound from New York to this port collided ‘with the topsail schooner Wonder, striking her amidships ‘on the port side, und Hiterally catting her in two, when she sunk instantly. The captain and two passengers on the schoon:r wer lost, and the mate badly injured, both legs being broken in two places, The schooner suddenly changing her course was the cause of this fatal det ‘There were no casuaities on board the Alhambra, and the ‘vessel is almost uninjured. The following is a ist of the crew and passengers of the Wonder, for whose rescue every poss.ble exertion was made the officers and crew of the Alhambra:— Captain J. T. =miib, lost. ‘Walter White, mate, badty injored, David Kenney, supercargo, saved, Thomas Taylor, steward, saved, Jobo Melcan, Seaman, saved. James Peters, seaman, saved. Jobo Allen, seaman, saved. obert Cuman, passenger, lost, Heury Brandt, passenger, lost. SCATEMENT OF PAYRENGRRS. Ve, the undersigned, passengers on board the steam- ship Albambra, on her trip from New York to Charies- ‘ton. leaving New York June 24, 1865, being on deck, and eye witness of the accident by which the topeail sche mer Wonder was run into and cut in two by the Albanbra, about half-past three A. M., on the morning ‘of the 260M Inst., do hereby testify to the fact that Cap- ‘tain Benzon, commanding steamship Alhambra, First Officer Newbegin, and none of the otiicers or crew of that vessel are, in any way, responsible for the ‘whoreiy the lives of three of those on board of the schooner were lost and the mate of the schooner very severely injured. Kirst Otficor Newbegin had charge of ‘the de k at the time, and it is our opinion that, under Providence, we are debited to his presence of mind and prompt setion for the safety of the Alhambra and all the es on board of her. The schoon:r was plainly seen by the ,Ibambra, «nd the usual precautions ‘taken ju passing to watch the lights. Had the schooner kept im her course no accident would have hap- peved, but, by some fatal mistake, the helm on the schooner was put the wrong way, and she was running directly for us, 80 that her bow would struck us On the broadside, and, in all probability, both vessels would havo been iost, had not Mr. Newbegin, with admirable presence of mind, realized the whole difficulty of the situation, andof two evils chose the least. Seeing that a vollision was inevitable, and having no other alterna- tive, he ordered the helu: of the Alhambra to be put hard ‘port, which reversed the position of the vossels, and anwtend of the steamer receiving the shock from the schooner, she ran into the schooner. It is proper to state that Mr, Newbegin, as soon as he saw that a collision was dmevitable, ordered the engine stopped and reversed. kK. L DAVENPORT, Charleston Pilot.

Mackey and lady arrived on the Albambra, ‘and bed a grand reception and welcome home, By the arriva! of the steam revenue cutter Kankakee on Saturday, bringing Mr. R. 8. Andros, charged with She duty of the reorganization of the Southern custom houses, intelligence was received that the Doctor might be expected on the Alhambra. A meeting was held, which was pumerously attended, and @ committee ap- pointed to make arrangements for a bearty welcome heme. A large crow gathered on the wharf. When #.e doctor and Mrs, Mackey were apprised of the pro- @codings they were taken by surprive, but readily ac- Quiesced in the wishes of their friends. Afver a warm sbaking of hands all around, the Doctor ‘was escorted by two of the committee from the boat'to ‘the wharf. He was introduced to the chairman by Mr. Robert James, who said;—‘‘Allow me, Mr. Chairman, to esent to you our distinguished and highly honored ow citizen, Dr. Albert G. Mackey, Collecior of the Port of Charleston.” Mr. Ki in behalf of the committee, said:— Mr. Collector—As chairman of the Committee of Re- ception, allow me to extend to you, sr, on your arrival home, our heartfelt welcome. With joy and pleasure ‘we have read the chronicle of the events as they tran- spired in the course of your late visit among our breth- Fen of tbe North.

Again ee Soe warm and cordial welcome on 'Dr. Mackey replied as follows :— Mn.

The state of my health, from the Jong and unpieasent voyage back, at present provents me from giving full utterance to the feelings of my heart. it will be my endeavor in the fulure 80 to dis- charge the trust and duties of the position in which our government has honored me with the approval of its confidence, as to give satisfaction to the government and the. n of my fellow citizens, Return my warmest thavks to the committee, Mr. Chairman, for ‘their kindness in this meeting. The Doctor was then escorted by the chairman and ether members of the committee to the carriages in wailing. Mra. Mackey was excorted by two others of the com- mittee to a carriage cngaged expressly for her reception, ‘when the whole party were conveyed to the family resi: denés in Wentworth street.

SOUTH CAROLINA DRLRGATION, A dewpate naw of the 234 ult., received by + Albanwbra, giving the erpaé by Dr. Mackey of the Bourh Carolina delegation at Washington, produced reat excitement. The majority, beheving the delega- m salf-commtivuted, say it served’ them righ ‘The party of the delegation were bighly indignant, aud avow that the Doctor will hereafter find Charleston too hot to hold him.

This fire was, no doubt, caused by fireworke. A woman in Greene street saw some fireworks enter a second story window of the building about nine o’clock in the evening, and after a few minutes the light apparently went out. From the appearance of the burn- ing the fire originated on the second floor, in the vicinity of where the fireworks fell.

Maximilian on Liberty of Con- science, &e., &c., &e, Our Havana mace. Havana, July 1, 1865, A few odds and ends of the last news from Mexico will afford me material for a letter, since nothing else offers. Some persons on the spot represent the republicans as very much dispirited and disheartened by the action taken by the government and authorities of the United States in relation to the “emigration” scheme. It is quite natural that such should bo the case, and we may even, without much difficulty, agree with those who pre- @ict a speedy end to the war. Editors will continue to Prove that Maximilian has failed, and to assert that the eountry is rapidly returning to the old system of things. I do not remembér, in short, to have ever scen a sound editorial article on affairs in Mexico; but, granting that there have been many such—dato, ma non concesso—they havo-proved but poor prophecies, for France appears More determined than ever to protect and support Maximilian; while the latter, newspapers to the con- trary, evinces no desire to pack up his trunk and go home. The late energy among guerilla parties is no doubt due to the expected aid from the United States, and now that no more need be hoped for from that quar- ter, the multitude of chiefs and followers will gradually dwindle away. Juarez is without money, and though patriotism may work miracles, it cannot get along alto- gether without hard dollars. I find, for instance, the following in the Santa ‘Fe (New Mexico) Gazette:— Juarez has with him not above two thousand men, badly clothed, and the greater part without shoes. They receive eighteen cents a day, on which they must live.

William Thousey, of 2634 Hamilton street, yesterday caused the arrest of Peter Matthews, the proprietor of a porter house at No. 9 James slip, on the charge of as sanlt and robbery. Thousey sites that on Monday night at a late hour he cailed at the prisoner’s house and asked for a room. He retired, and, locking the door after him, went to rest, after placing three hundred dollars in money under his pillow. An hour or two later, it is alleged, the accused gained access to the room in some: manner unknown, ond commenced beating comp,inant with bis fists. He compelled Thousey to dress himself and hastened him from the house, not allowing him time to secure the money which he had left in the bed, Since that time the complainant has been unable to obtain the missng money, and on his complaint Justice Dowling committed Matthows to prigon for trial, in default of one: thousand dollars bail. The accused is @ native of Den- mark, DESCENT ON A DISORDERLY HOUSE—COUNTERFEIT MONEY SEIZED. Captain Jamieson, of the Seventh precinct, with a sec- tion ofmen, on Tuesday night made a descent on the bar ‘and private supper rooms No. 1 Division street, kept by Thomas Clark and his wife Frederica, Clark and his bet- ter half are chargog with having kept a disorderly house, the resort of the vile and vicious of both sexes. Mr, and Mrs. Clark were arrested, aud also three or four other found in the place at the time the descent was made. Justice Shandley committed all the prisoners for examination. On searching the house, Captain Jamieson and his men found five hundred dollars in counterfeit. fives on the Weyboaset Bank of Providence, R. I., and also sixteen dollars in counterfeit fifty cent fractional currency, concealed in an old stove in the sub-cellar. Clark and his wife seemed to know nothing concerning this bogus money. RUFFIANLY ASSAULT AND ROBBERY IN AN OMNI- BUS—STEALING A TWELVE HUNDRED DOLLAR DIAMOND PIN. Yesterday morning about half-past twelve o’clock Mr. William Dayton, residing at 616 Sixth avenue, entered a Fifth avenue stage in Broadway, near Twolfth street, soon after which two young men, giving their names as Patrick Oates and Bartholomew Griffin, who were in the stage, commenced an assault on him without the least provocation. The assailants forced Mr. Dayton down on the seat of the omnibus, when a terrible struggle ensued between the parties, Griffin seized Mr. Dayton by the throat and held him fast for some minutes. As soon as possible Mr. Dayton screamed for help, when officer rennan, of the Fifteenth precinet, responded to the cal} ‘and succeeded in arresting both Oates and Griffin. Dur- ing the struggle in the omnibus Mr. Dayton’s diamond Dreastpin was lost or stolen, and he charged the prisoners: with stealing it, The object of the assault doubtless was to seoure the sparkling jewel. Justice Dodge committed the accused parties to prison for examination. ALLEGED INTENTIONAL SHOOTING. John Gaines, a colored man, was arrested on Tuesday night, charged with deliberately shooting Mr. De Witt Con- over in the head with a pistol loaded with powder and shot, inflicting serious wounds.

Justice Dodge committed Gaines to prison to await an examination. James O'Connell was yesterday committed by Justice Dodge on a charge of shooting Thomas Cunningham in the face. Cunningham, who is severely wounded, is under treatment in the Jews’ Hospital, in Twonty-eighth street. ° THE SANDED CARD GAMBLING CASE—DISCHARGE OF ‘THE DEFENDANTS AND THEIR REARREST. ‘The examination in the case of John Seviere and George: Keister, rocently arrested, charged with defrauding Mr. Ogden Meade out of $13,200 by swindling hin at faro;, dui a which was played at Niagara Falls, waa soatiies fore Justice Dowling yesterday.
