e against me at Washington. His reply, as nearly as I can recollect, was a follows: "I do not believe that any such charges have been made. I have never heard of any such charges, and I am sure that I have never made any charges against you." This conversation I had with Mr. Ogden on Tuesday, the 10th of March, 1863, and you will perceive by the accompanying document that Mr. Ogden had forwarded the charges on the 12th of February, 1863. which caused my arrest and imprisonment. On the 13th of March I left Quebec with the intention of coming direct to New York; but was detained in Montreal by the illness of Mrs. Atwood's little daughter until the 30th of that month. On that day we left Montreal, and the next evening arrived in New York, and on the following Friday, (Good Friday,) April 3d, and only released last Tuesday, the 12th of May. Geo. W. Williamson.

Northern news — the Recognition rumor — rejoicing in Baltimore. Orange C. H., March 13. --The Washington Chronicle, of the 10th, contains Seward's celebrated letter of July 11th to Ministered Adams, relative to the English iron clads.--He says that the United States Government will be satisfied with the decision in the Alexandra case if affirmed by the highest courts. If affirmed, he says, it becomes the duty of Parliament to pace laws to prevent the fitting out of similar vessels. If this is not done, he suggests the possibility that United States vessels will be compelled to pursue vessels of this character even into British ports. This might lead to war, and Great Britain would be alone responsible. Mr. Davis. of Kentucky, has introduced in the United States Senate resolutions declaring that no negro, or person whose mother or grandmother was a negro, shall be citizen of the United States, or eligible to office; that Maine and Massachusetts shall constitute one Sta

The royal party afterwards went in carriages to the Admiralty pier and embarked at forty minutes past eleven A. M. The Empress of Mexico.[Paris (March 13) correspondence of the London Star.] The future Empress of Mexico is not at all handsome. She is very round shouldered, and of royal build and physiognomy, although I have been told by persons who have been presented to her that she is not devoid either of sense or wit. The treaty between Maximilian and Napoleon.[from the Memorial Diplomatique of Paris, March 13.] The draft of a treaty was agreed upon at the Tuilleries, to be ratified so soon as the Emperor Maximilian 4. shall have ascended the Mexican throne and announced his accession to the Court of the Tuilleries.

The blockade running business at Nassau. A letter from Nassau, March 13th, gives an interesting account of affairs at that once famous blockade-running port. It says that, by the customs received from blockade-runners, the colony has paid off its debts and has $150,000 in gold to its credit in bank. It adds: The sudden check to business operations by the cessation of blockade running has thrown several hundreds of men, firemen, stokers, etc., connected with the steamers, out of employment. A large number of these are, or represent themselves to be, entirely destitute. They have been provided for by the authorities, who are getting them shipped off as rapidly as practicable. The Legislature has passed an act prohibiting the discharge of persons engaged in the navigation of vessels. As there are steamers still arriving from England which left before the news had reached there of the destruction of the blockade-running business, this will protect the colony against havi
