SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED
STATES.
Cotton Permits Illegal.

MONDAY, April g. 1867
The Prize LaDs-TRe Case Of the Sea
LiOn-Ihe Decree Of Condemnation Al
fi5med-The schooner Sea Lion and cargo
vs.. the United States.-This cause comes
on appeal from the southern district of
Florida, and is prosecuted to reverse a
Judgment of condemnation against the
schooner Sea Lion and her cargo of cot
ton. This cause was recently reported
in the papers.
The schooner was given up to the
United States blOckading ships at Mo-
bile by direction Of the claimants, MAY
9, 1868. They insisted that under a
license or permit issued by the agent of
the treasury department and collector of
customs at New Orleans, February Is,
1868, approved by Rear Admiral Farra-
gut, then in command of the Gulf SQUAD
ron, and pursuant to n general order of
the United States military commander of
that department, (Gen. Banks. that the
commander of the vessel to whom the
Sea Lion was given up should have sent
her to New Orleans instead of Key West,
where she was libelie1.
II was claimed that the grant given
by theftbecisl agent to the claimants
was aS1pie to protect the Sea Lion and
territory under the control Of the United
States civil or military authority; that
the right 10 grant such permits was incl
dent to the Office and functions exercised
by the special agent at the time he issued
it that the grant was not revoked or
modified before the capture Of the Sea
Lion that the Sea Lion was captured
in violation of the orders of Admiral
Farragut, by 3 vessel under his COM
mand, and was therefore illegal that
the order of Gen. Banks was of itself
sufficient to legalize the venture of the
claimants within his department.
Mr.. Justice Swayne now read the opin-
ion of the court. after affirming the de-
cree of condemnation, holding that the
permits were unauthorized by the
treasury regulations issued by the secre- !
tary of the treasury, and We're therefore |
void. On the contrary, the permits were
in conflict with the rules and require |
ments of those regulations. Such grants |
found no warrant in the statute, which |
provided that the president should |
license trade of this nature. The secre- |
tary could only establish the rules by |
which such trade should be regulated |
when established. The orders of Gen.
Banks, Endorsed by Admiral Farrugut, |
trade beyond his military /
lines, were clearly void. The president |
only could grant such a license. The
vessel and cargo bore the stamp Of the /
enemy's property. The paper relied /
upon was a Dullity, and gave no protec-
ton. They were as much liable to cap
ture and condemnation as any other
vessel or cargo leaving a blOckaded port
and coming within reach Of a biockading
vessel

LATE FROsI WASHINGTON.

Special DiEpateh TO St. Louis Republican,
WASHINGTON, May 6.-The cOrrespon-
dence between Gen. Sheridan and Gen.
Grant, relative to the reconstruction act,
is made public. It appears that on the
lst of April Gen. Sheridan telegraphed
to Gen. Grant, requesting an aUthori-
tative decision, showing who were pro-
hibited from voting under the military
act, covering, all cases. Receiving no
reply on the 9Th, he again tele-
graphed to Gen. Grant, informing him
that he was in readiness to COM
mence the registration in New Or
leans, and would, in a few days, be
ready to commence throughout the
whole state of Louisiana, and stating
that a reply to his previous telegram ask
ing an authoritative decision as TO what
classes are disfranchised is very imper-
tant. Gen. Sheridan was then forwarded
a copy of a letter addressed to Gen.
Grant, by Col. E. d. Townsend, adjutant
general of the army, in which the secTe-
tary Of war acknowledges the receipt of
the first telegram alluded to, and
states that it had been submitted
to the president and cabinet and
instructions deferred until the at
torney general completes his opinion
upon the same points heretofore pre-
sented by Maj.-Gen. Scofield, on refer
ence to the president, and now under
consideration of the attorney general.
On the eighth of April, Gen. Grant re-
piled to the last telegram OF Gen. Sheri-
dan in substance that the question as TO
who was Ineligible to register was sub
mitted 20 the attorney general, and no
answer had been received This tele-
gram concludes I" Go on giving your
own Interpretation to the law until the
answer Of the attorney general is re-
ceived.p
Although the final argument of Attor-
ney General Stanbery on the Mississippi
and Georgia injunction cases will not be
made IN the supreme court until Mon
day, it is known that the concluded
Georgia case was under consultation to-
day by the judges at their usual Satur-
day meeting to make up decisions.
The counsel ON behalf of the state are
confident that they have four of the nine
judges, who will join in dissenting opin- |
ion. The majority opinion, which is |
the decision Of the court, is expected to |
dismiss the applications, for the often |
stated reason of want Of Jurisdiction.
The situation Of Jefferson Davis fur |
nishes the usual paragraph, thus Mrs. /
Davis has been very busy to-day in con-
ferring with his counsel and officers Of
the government, as to the probable dis
position Of her husband. Itappears that
nothing will be done until the return to
the writ Of habeas corpus on May 10Th. |
Gen. Burton, in command at Fortress
Monroe, has been instructed to obey the
writ.
A letter received here from Gen. Gus
tar shows that al last account the cavalry /
were in hot pursuit Of the Cheyennes /
raiders who were squirting their horses
northward. The Cheyenne village where
our troops were recently encamped, was
burnt short time ago with a loss to the
Indians of 100000.
The registry Of voters of this city is
about completed. The white people have
a majority of nearly 900.

RICHMOND, May THE United States
district court, Judge Underwood presid-
ing, has commenced its session. Among
the members of the grand jury are ].
Minor Bolts, James Segar, L. Mackenzie
and five negroes. The Judge in his
charge to the jury congratulated then,
and said that though it had been threst-
ened with destruction by assassination,
yet, thanks TO congress, 1t met now In
security. This promised better things
for Richmond, a city where the press
has reached the very lowest depths of
degradation the pulpit has been prosti-
tuted by ministrstions of gay Lotharios,
and licentiousness had ruled until half
the children we're illegitimate. The jury
would have a good deal of work, much
of it created by the demoralized people,
and by so disloyal press, which had
encouraged perjury and counterfeiting
to cheat the government. He called
attention to the fact that the negroes
were not allowed the freedom Of street
ears.
S. H. Chandler, prosecuting attorney
