FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT

WASHINGTON, March 80. 1870.
THE rITz JOHN PORTER CASE STATEMENT OF
THE SECRETARY OF wAR--cURRENT REPORTS
BASED ON MERE CONJECTURE.
The Secretary Of War has seen the statements pub.

the report which he is at liberty to communicate
He says that the testimony. forming large vol

this is done the President will not begin
to examine the papers forwarded by General Scho-
field. Moreover. the President has already on
hand large amount of public business requiring
hts personal attention it will be time before he

man in regard to matters of importance and delib-
crates at his convenience such subjects as demand
his consideration"
The attention of tho Secretary was called to the
positive which 1t said General Porter
had received regard the opinion Of the Court Of
inquiry. He replicd-
II cannot imagine from what source such infor-
nation couldbe had. The. members of the court
certainly would not divuge tho result Of their de-
liberation. and in the War Department there is no
reason to believe that any having access to the
papers would be guilty of great breach OF official
propriety an intmation of their contents would
be. Consequently 1t is to be presumed that the
statements published are mere conjecturcs."

the country delegations, and that this major

In several Of the parishes the Custom House
people have succeeded In electing tickets,

The election In this city for delegates takes

THE BETHEL ENTERTAINMENT.
An Address by the Hon. Jefferson
Davis.

/ Au E1AAAG66 by Lb0 1ASns 0ChSl Owl
Davis.
The entertainments of the upper Seamen'e
Bethel are always we'll attended, but probably
the largest audience which ever congregated
In the eommodlous reception room gathered
there last night, brought together by the an
nouncement Of o concert by the sailors of the
steamship Havana.
These sailor concerts have always proved
entertaining, and the one last night was nc
exception to tho rule, and that the efforts Of
the different participants were appreciated
was evidenced by the applause they received
Or the songs most enjoyed. because Of their
rendition. were "Our qrandfather's Clock
and Nancy Lee" They were each sung by
Individual members OF the crew and their
shipmates Joined In the chorus. The Nancy
Lee chorus was particularly we'll sung.
Between songs there were recltations by
young ladies and gentlemen, and their per-
formances added not d little to the success Of
the entertainment.
Mention must be made or the address of
Mr.. Alfred II. Wilson, with which the even
Ing performance was opened. Ii was d happy
effort, we'll written and eloquently delivered.
The event OF the evening, however, was a
short address by the Hon. Jefferson Davis.
Mr.. Davis came In after the performance was
well under way and took n retired 1 eat, but
he was observed by the Rev. Mr.. Wlther-
spoon, chaplain OF the Bethel, who called him
to the platform and introduced him to the
audience. The applause and cheers were
deafenlng, and 1t was some moments before
MI. Davis could make himself heard. Final
ly. however, the demonstration quieted down,
and Mr.. Davis spoke.
He said he had been watching the progress
Of the Bethel since It's inception, and he had
noted with pride its rapid ahd steady advance
10 him there was no wonder In the fact that
the sailor should seek religion; they went out
on to the deep and Witnessed the fury OF the
winds and the waves, and they, perhaps,
more than any other class Ut men, could re-
alize the omnipotence and mercy Of God; and
it was no wonder that they could turn to Him
and say when the storm was fiercest am
ready to go; and give to Thy care the dear
ones on shore and ut home"
The mission OF the sailor was like that of
the dove which went forth from the ark after
the deluge. They went forth on the waste of
waters from place to place, uniting continents
and bringing all mankind together.
lie rejoiced to see the sailor turning bis
thoughts to religion. Christians are OF the
noblest types Of manhood, and one Of the
greatest displays OF true courage was by
the Saviour on the cross when dying that
others might be saved. Religion there was
no diminutton Of manhood.
Mr.. Davis concluded his address and re. |
tired. and the entertainment WAS continued
TO successful ending.
