LATE FROM WASHINGTON,
IMPORTANT CONTRADICTION.
The Treasury Not Borrowing,
TORNADO IN KENTUCKY.
White and Black Disturbances,
From Washington.
[Special Despatch to Bulletin.]
WASHINGTON, Dec. 28.—SecretaryMcCul
loch is not disposed to accept the offer of
the banks.of a temporary loan of a hundred
millions. He will probably adopt the usual
mode of getting funds. Mr. Hooper, of the
Ways and Means Committee, is in confi
dence with the Secretary, in regard to the
matter.
Governor Sharkey, of Mississippi, has
just arrived here. He reports favorably
respecting the condition of affairs through
out the South.
Unless the test oath is repealed, not more
than four of the Southern representatives
can be admitted to Congress.
Two English detectives have just arrived
for the purpose of procuring information of
Fenian movements.
From Louisville.
Loinsvit,LE, Dee. 27.—A tornado occurred
last night in the vicinity of Pulaski, which.
unroofed several buildings and tempo
rarily destroyed telegraphic communication
with the South.
The bridge over the Chattahoochie river,
seven miles south of Atlanta, Georgia, has
been carried away by a freshet. v
There was considerable disturbance on
Christmas day at Clarksville, Tennessee,
between the whites and blacks, but the
particulars were not attainable this evening
Financial Correction.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 28.—The National In
telligencer. says : "Upon authority compe
tent to conclude such a question, we an
nounce that the published statements that a
loan of one hundred millions, was, upon the
occasion of his recent visit to New York,
tendered to Secretary McCulloch, by the
National Banks, are a sheer fabrication.
The Treasury has not at present any need of
a loan, and should such become necessary,
it would not be accepted from the Banks,
but would be solicited,and doubtless without
trouble immediately obtained, from the
public.
Arrival or Steamers.
NEW 'YORE, Dec. 28.—The steamer Sax
onia from Southampton, with dates to the
13th, has arrived.
The steamer Costa Rica from New Or
leans on the 20th, has also arrived.
Arrival of Southern Steamers.
NEW YORK, Dec. 28.—The steamers Night.

New Orleans on the 18th, and Washington,
from Wilmington on the 25th instant, ar
rived at this port to-day.

for All LETTER SALE.—The great sale of
articles accumulated through the year in
the Dead Letter office was commenced on
Saturday by Boteler,
and has been contin
ued with the liveliest kindlof bidding ever
since. Over half the immense catalogue is
of articles of jewelry, largely of the "dollar"
sort, but with sprinkling enough of the
genuine to induce a lively competition.
Upwards of three hundred articles in the
collection are packages of patent medicines,
in the shape of pills, powders, unguents,
oils, old school and new school, allopathic,
homcgopathic, Thompsonian, eelkstic, and
all sorts, for the relief of ' every malady
known to man or woman. There are over
one hundred and fifty gold (supposed to be)
watches on the catalogue,and no end of silver
watches. Also, an indescribable medley of
all the varieties of wares known to civiliza
tion. Amongst the odd articles thus passed
through Uncle Sam's mails, finding their
way to the Dead Letter office, are sets of
shoemaker's tools, packages of type, ladies'
wigs, bundles of clothing, duplicate parts
of sewing machines, packages of felt hats,
iron cog wheels (small,) lots of lampwicks,
dress elevators, false. bosoms (ladies'),
shoulder straps, pieces of a piano, lamp
burners, hundreds of military books, &c.,
&c. The proceeds from the sales will be
deposited, subject to the order of the owners
should any of them ever turn up.— Wash.
Star, •Wednesday.
AN ALTERCATION AT THE NATIONAL
HOTEL.—Yesterday afternoon an alterca
tion took place in the National Hotel, be
tween Col. Richard Dunbar, of Brooklyn,
N. Yiyethe contractor for converting Ford's
Theatre into a fire proof building, and
formerly a contractor on the Washington
water works, and Mr.. James McGuire,
formerly a paymaster on the water-works,
during which the former received two
wounds in the side, which are not of a dan
gerous character. It is alleged that the ill
feeling between the parties grows out of Mr.
McGuire's testimony before the Congres
sional Committee on the District, as to the
manner in which the work was done on the
Washington Aqueduct. Dr. W. P. John
son was called in and dressed Col. Danbar's
wounds, which he found to be slight. He
will be able to be 'out in a few days.—Wash
ington Star Wednesday.
FATAL NI7RECR.—The Independent News
Room says that the steamer reported ashore
on the south side of Nantucket, on the 23d
inst.,_is the Haines,' Captain Ettrup, from
St. Domingo for Boston, with a cargo of
logwood, consigned to A. S. ik W. G. Louis,
of Boston. Mr. Dunham the wreckmaster
of Nantucket, thibks the crew have all
perished.
KEPT HIS Wm:tn.—A magician once upon
a time advertised on his bills that ,the
evening's entertainment would •conclude
with the 'mysterious Oisappearance of a
lady. Sure enough, after the 'performance
he eloped with the wife of the man who
owned the hall.
OTECE:CR_ESTNIIT STREET BRIDGE.—An the
arches for the bridge over the Schuylkill at
Chestnut street are now.up,and the keys in all
except the four outer segments. As soon as
the bracing of the arches is completed the
work of putting down the roadway will be
commenced.
THE .151EIVIA-NS.
Proceedings at Headquarters ih Union
Spuare-;--The Sentiment
of Other States.
[From today's New York Herald.l
The proceedings of the Union square
party are still kept shrouded in secrecy.
TThhe officials there are quite reticent, and
state that the arbitrament of the present
differences must be decided by the coming
Convention, whose decision will be anxi
ously awaited bv the friends of Fenianism
and Ireland, b - oth .in this country and
Europe.
We understand that letters are flowing in
from the different Centres throughout the
country; endorsing Colonel O'Mahony's
policy, and denouncing the Senate as a
bogus, self-constituted concern. The Union
square establishment peremptorily refuse
giving publicity to the workings of the
organization.
Our reporter has learned that some emi
nent officers from the Irish Military Coun
cil have lately arrived from Ireland with
despatches and credentials from the chief of
the executive body there, whose opinions
seem to be an ultimatum' with all parties—
strongly denouncing the Senate and their
unconstitutional proceedings, also certain
officers who have come over without leave
of absence, and who are strongly in favor of
the Senate, as cowards and traitors. If this
be so, the O'Mahony party hold strong
proofs in their hands condemnatory of the
Senate and their adherents, which will have
great weight with the coming Congress.
So sure are the O'Mahony party of
squelching the Senate that they take things
quite easy, and business progresses at
Union Hall in the same routine as if nothing
were amiss. Several Centres and influen
tial men of the organization have called
within the last few days to inspect the
Moffat House and judge for themselves as
to the advisability of supporting so costly
an institution. After going through the
different apartments, and seeing everyroom
and office employed by officials and clerks,
busy in the business of the Brotherhood,
and after computing the expense of renting
some dozen offices in some down-town hole,
these gentlemen have expressed themselves
thoroughly satisfied with the concern, and
thought there was a saving in thus having
the different departments concentrated in
one building.
Colonel O'Mahony's friends charge the
Senate with acting illegally and uncon
stitutionally. The following extracts from
the adopted constitution seem to support
their charges:
At the Committee on constitution of the
Philadelphia Convention Mr. Gibbons
moved that the constitution of the Fenian
Brotherhood be drawn after the model of
the constitution of the United States, which
was unanimously adopted.
The provisions of the Constitution of the
United States provide that the House of
Representatives alone had the power of
impeachment. All powers not granted to
the Senate were reserved by the House.
The Senate had power to try, but not to
impeach. The impeaching power is in the
House only. Hence, all the proceedings of
the Senate, so far as impeaching and try
ing President O'Mahony and Secretary
Killian, are unconstitutional, null and void.
The above extracts would place the Senate
in the light of a self•constituted body. Be
sides, four of the leading members of the
Senate have been dismissed from their re
spective circles. This measure alone dis
qualifies them not only from acting as
members of the Senate,but also as members
of the organization.
The Emmet Guard Circle, Shuttsburg,
Wisconsin, has spoken in favor of O'Ma
hony.l
DEPLORABLE ACCOUNTS FROM
TEXAS.
Starvation and Suffering of the In-
habitants.
[Correspondence of the N. Y. Herald.)
WASBTNGTON, Dec. 27, IS6s.—Brigadier
General William E. Strong, Inspector
General on the staff of General Howard, of
the Freedmen's Bureau, returned to-day
from a three months' visit to the Southwest,
and will soon submit a report of his official
action and observation. A large portion of
his time while absent was spent in Texas,
and accounts of the condition of affairs in
that region are far from satisfactory. It has
been found impossible to keep troops enough
in Texas to do more than keep up the
Semblance of government, and almost the
entire, population is represented as being
hostile in feeling and action to the United
States authorities. No Federal troops have
ever penetrated the interior, and rowdyism,
secession and crime run rampant. The
General visited most of the principal towns
of the State, was obliged to travel hundreds
of miles with a mounted escort through a
country sparsely settled and fearfully des
titute of the necessaries of life, and found
blacks and whites ignorant, lawless and
starving everywhere. The freedmen are
mostly congregated on the rivers towards
the coast, though large numbers in the ag
gregate are scattered throughout other por
tions of its territory. In the central and
eastern portions of the State the whites
scarcely knew the war was ended, and the
negroes still supposed themselves the law
ful property of their former masters. In
other places, though nominally free,
he found them in all stages of
suffering and destitution, and unable to
procure sufficient remuneration for labor to
sustain life. The planters who have corn
and other provisions, are unwilling to part
with it, and white families importuned him
often for some order compelling the rich to
sell their corn at one dollar in silver per
bushel to such as were destitute and starv
ing. The negroes professed a willingness to
work, but comparatively few persons were
in condition to employ them. The former
also complained universally of bad treat
ment and violations of such contracts as had
been entered into. The labor question will
ultimately' regulate itself; but thousands
of poor, both white and black, will
perish this winter from starvation unless
The government interposes for their protec
tion. As an evidence of the feeling of the
people General Strong states that when Mr.
William Johnson was wounded in the arm
by the accidental discharge of hii own gun
a number of surgeons were applied to for
professional services, and every one not
only refused, but based his refusal on the
specifie ground of Johnson being a brother
of the President. He was obliged to send
nearly one hundred miles for a federal sur
geon, and died solely from the consequences
of delay in treatment. Gen. Strong furnishes
much sorrowful information, but, being
neither a radical nor a politician, his testi
mony is entitled to great weight.
Fran Awn Loss OF LIFE.—We find the
following in the Portsmouth (N. H.) Chroni
cle of Monday—About 11 o'clock Sunday
night, fire-broke out in the House of Cor
irecfion (or Bridewell) at the City Farm, and
;the building was burnt to the ground, all
save the brick walls; and four persons are
said to have perished in the flames: Lawrence
Gould, a man long resident on the premises
:for whom (in the absence of a reporter on
the spot) we have no name but "Duchy,'
and another man or boy, and a woman,
whose name we did not learn.
fab DAILY EVENING BULL
ATTEMPTED MURDER IN THE , Fin
Wenn.—Last evening between. seven and
eight o'clock Mr. McNichols, the proprietor
of a liquor store at Sixth and South streets,
Was standing on the corner in conversation
with Officer Mcßride, of the Fifth Ward
Police. A man named Edward Donnelly
came along. He and . McNichols were ac
quainted, and the latter put out his hand in
a' friendly manner. Donnelly, who was
under the influence of liquor, replied with
a very insulting epithet, and then drew
a pistol. Two shots were fired at
Mr. McNichols, one passed through his
coat and vest sideways. The attack was so
sadden that McNichols and Mcßride were
taken completely by surprise. After the
second shot, however, Donnelly was seized
by Officer Mcßride and was taken to the
station house. This morning he was taken
before Alderman Butler and was held in
$l,OOO bail to answer at Court. 'lt seems that
Donnelly had been arrested previously for
some minor offence, and McNichols refused
to enter bail for him. This fact, in connec
tion with rum, is supposed to have been the
motive for the conduct of Donnelly.
DISOP.DHRLY HOUSE CASE.—Last night,
about 11 o'clock, Sergeant Crout, of the Re
serve Corps, made a descent upon an al
leged disorderly house, No. 611 Pin' street.
Rachel Squirel, charged with being the
proprietress, and seven of the inmates were
arrested. The prisoners were all colored.
Among them was a man 55 years of age,and
a young girl aged 15. The party ,was ar
raigned before Recorder Eneu this morn
ing. Mrs. Squirel was held in $l,OOO bail
to answer at court, and the others were held
in $3OO to keep the peace,
MAJOR GENERAL HANCOCK was in the
city last evening, and was a guest at a din
ner given at the Union League House.
Major General Robert O. Tyler and other
prominent military men were also - present.
Major General Meade was obliged to decline
his invitation owing to the serious ilinessof
his mother-in-law, the widow of the late
Hon. John Sergeant. General Hancock
left the city this morning.
ACCIDENT TO A PHILADELPRIAN.—Joseph
Hill, Esq., member elect of Common Coun
cil, from the Twenty-second Ward, met with
a serious accident, m New York, yesterday.
While crossing Couxtland street, in order to
take the tour o'clock, P. M., train for this
city, he was run over by a stage and much
hurt. He is reported to be comfortable to
day.
Assam:l . l7Al THE LAW.—A deputy sheriff
went to a house, No. 234 Monroe street,
yesterday, to execute a writ, when, it is
alleged, he was assaulted by one of the
inmates. The assailant was arrested and
gave the name of John Smith. This morn
ing he had a hearing before Alderman
Tittermary, and was committed to answer.
ATTEMPT TO DEFRAUD TIIE UNITED
STATES.—William Pry, lately discharged
from the 22d U.S. C. Troops, had a bearing
before U. S. Commissioner Smith this
morning, on a charge of attempting to draw
pay from paymaster Colonel Bell in the
name of another man. He WAS committed
in default of bail.
RECOVIZRING.—Sergeant Lemuel T. Selby,
of the Second District Police, who was ac
cidentally shot a few weeks ago, while gun
ning in Delaware, is rapidly recovering from
his injury. He is now able to discharge his
duties in the Station House.

Letter from a Colored Preacher in North
The Newbern (N. C.) Daily Times having
charged that the negroes in that State are
plotting insurrections, a colored clergyman,
Rev. J. W. Hood, who is pastor of the largest
negro congregation in North Carolinia
writes a sharp reply. He says:
" There is a class of men who are not
entirely satisfied with the new order o
things; they are especially displeased with
the action of the Government in allowing
discharged colored soldiers (as well as
whites) to retain their side arms. The time
has been when they could cane a colored
man off the sidewalk with impunity; but
they fear that it would not be quite safe to
amuse themselves in that way while the
colored man is permitted to have the means
of self-defence, and hence the great desire to
get up some pretext for robbing the colored
people of all ureans of protection, and then
cry 'mad dog!'
3 '. "I have been here nearly two
years, and I think it is not presumption to
say that I possess the confidence of my
people. It is therefore my opinion that no
thing of this kind could have been on foot
without me having some knowledge of it,
and yet I never had the slightest intimation
of it until my attention was called to the
article in the Times. Since that time I have
talked to a great many on the subject, and
they almost universally agree with me that
the rumors are the work of designing men,
for the purpose of exciting hatred against
the colored people; and the Lord knows we
have suffered enough from this already.
Many have said to me that if there was any
disturbance here the white people have got
to initiate it, and, if lam any judge, the
articles to which I refer have more a ten
dency to . inflame than to calm the public
wind. Notwithstanding this, I do not be
lieve that the colored people, as a mass, will
be provoked to engage in any riotous de
monstration. The ignorant are too docile,
and the more intelligent know that they
have everything to lose and nothing to gain
by it. The colored people, as a mass, are a
law abiding people, and, if let alone, will
trouble nobody. That there are niggardly
people among us, as there are among the
whites, I will not deny, but they are the
exceptions in both cases. The mass, as
heretoloie t will continue to be loyal, and if
our enemies seek cause to destroy us, as
Daniel's enemies did him, they aro doomed
to the same disappointment, for I have
learned with much pleasure that the better
classes of our community do not credit the
rumor. J. W. HOOD,
"Pastor A. M. E. Zion Church, Newbein."
ON THE Vermont Central road, Thursday,
near Randolph ? a freight train got off the
track and a relief train was sent to clear the
road. The night express train from Boston
ran into the relief train, smashing a plat
form into kindling wood and wounding
two passengers on the express train, though
,not dangerously. .

The Money Market presents but little changes, and
the trar. sections at the Stock Board, as usual at the
close of the year, are very moderate. Gold keeps re•
markably steady, but it is the general impression that
it must gradually decline, and the wise merchant, ito
making up his account of stock at the close of the sea
son, will do well to mark down the goods preparatory
for an inevitable fall in the general current rates.
