Fish Firm on the Winslow Question Habeas Corpus for Zilburn Can Such a Writ Reach the House? The Silver Bill Passed Both Houses The Work on the Jetties Carpen ter for Punnan Writ Served oa Officers of the7 House. Washington, D. C, April 11. Fish takes decided ground, and informs- i Hoffman, in charge of affairs at Lu:. don, that the United States cannot, un der circumstances, take cognizance of the act of the British Parliament of 70, touching extradition treaties. He peremptorily refuses to give any assur ance that Winslow shall not be tried for any offense except that for which extradition is asked. Judge Carter has issued a writ of habeas corpus for Hullett Kilburn, re turnable forthwith. In the case of Pat Woods, held by the House for assailing Congressman Porter, the late Reverdy Johnson was consulted. His.-opinion was that the House of Representatives was a court of such j udicature that a habeas corpus could not reaih it. The Appropriations3ommittee have concurred in the Senate -amendments to the silver bill as telegraphed last night, but have added three hundred thousand to the appropriations for the printing and engraving bureau, which if concurred in by the House, will car ry it back to the Senate. In the Senate the Chair presented a communication from the Secretary of War, enclosing a communication from Maj. C. B. Comstock, showing the pro gress made by Jas. B. Eads, in the im provement of the South Pass of the Mississippi Eiver, up to February 7th, 1876; referred to the Committee on Commerce. Tne Committee on Appropriations finally adopted the silver bill precisely as it came from the Senate, and will report it to the House. This morning Matt Carpenter ap peared for Purman, of Florida. There has ytt been no proof of money pass ing. The Appropriation Committee struck out the provision taxing tea and cof fee, and it remained on the free list. Tbe officer of the court has served a writ on the Sergeant-at Arms and Speaker. NEW YORK. Committee for Purchasing the C & 0 Railroad A New Embezzelment Discovered Stewart's Funeral on Thursday. New York, April 11. -The following is the committee for purchasing and reorganizing the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad Company : C B Huntington, A A Low, Jno Castere, A S Hattel and Isaac Daeaport. The plan of Fish & Hat;h has been adopted. While the Receiver of the Security Bank was engaged last, week in paying the firstdividend to depositors, he dis covered that the book keeper and tell er, John Seal, who had been in the employ of the bank since 1872, bad embezzeled funds to the extent of $70,- 000 and fled to escape arrest. This will result in a further loss to the de positors of fifteen per cent. Seal had been embezzeling this money from the time of his appointment. The funeral of thelUe A. T. Stewart, takes place on Thursday morning next at 11 o'clock, from St. Mark's Episco pal Church. Bishop Potter will offi ciate. MARYLAND. Demurers Sustained in Election Cases- .. Baltimore, April 11. In the.United States Circuit Caurt, yesterday, Judge Giles sustained the demurrers in all of the election cases under the enforce ment act, and ordered the acquittal of those indicted. The demurs were on the grounds that the enforcement act was neither appropriate nor constitu tional legislation under the constitu tion and its amendments. Judge Giles sustained the demurers in pursu anceof the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in the re cently decided cases of Hiram Reese and Matthews Toushee. Fifty-six per sons were indicted by the Grand Jury in the United States Court for viola tions of the enforcement act at the State election in November last, and all were acquitted. MISSOURI.

SOUTH CAROLINA. The Republican Convention Turbu lent Times Gov Chamberlain's Crowd Whipped Out. Columbia, S. C, April 12. The morning session of the State Republi can Convention wasturbulent and ex citing. There are two distinct parties in that body, one of them led by Gov. Chamberlain, and consists of those who sincerely support his reform poli cy and are not jealous of his strength and popularity; the other party is led by United States Senator Patterson, who has at his back Collectbr Worth ington, of Charleston, Congressman Smalls, ex-Congressman Elliott, and most of the Republicans who were conspicuous as rulers of the party be fore Governor Chamberlain's election. Each of the parties desired to control the Convention, as that would carry with it a majority of the delegates to the National Convention, and also pro bably the control of the State nomi nating Convention to be held hereaf ter. A trial of strength took place. Gov Chamberlain insisted that where any county sent two sets of delegates, all should be excluded. The debate grew very hot. Judge Mackey, one of the delegates, denounced the anti Chamberlin party as a band of robbers and told ex-Congressman Elliett who asked whom he meant, that he (Elli ott) was the bead and front of those robbers. Elliott drew a pistol and sought to get to Mackey, who awaited him. Desks and chairs were over thrown, and excited delegates gather ed around Mackey and dragged them apart. A cha r was brandished over Gov Chamberlain's head by an oppo sition delegate. No blows passed, and when the Convention had calmed down, a little chairman, ex-Congressman Whittemore, ruled out the con testing delegates, all of whom were supporters of Chamberlain. Swails, a colored State Senator, and Governor Chamberlain were nominrted for Pre sident pro tern, and the vote was eighty for Swails and forty for Chamberlain. A committee on credentials, mainly made up of the anti-Chamberlain par ty, was then appointed and the Con vention adjourned to 7 o'clock p. m. NEW YORK. Stewart's Business Fres ents to Col leges.
