[Special Despatch to the Bulletin.]
WASHINGTON, May 26th.—It is under
stood that the President informed Mrs.
Jeff. Davis, last night, that he would not be
tried at the next term of the court. He had
already_sent an order to Colonel Miles, in
accordance with the Surgeon's report, to
give him the freedom of the fort.
M. Month°lon, the French Minister, is of
the opinion that the war cloud which hangs
ever Europe will shortly disappear. He
says the French Emperor's speech does not
mean war. The English Minister's advices
from London are very pacific.
Semmes, in his interview with the Presi
dent, :got no satisfaction in regard to his
pardon. He turned him over to the Attor
ney General. Another instalment of Phila
delphia and Jersey politicians are here
to-day looking after appointments and
arranging their States.
Burning. of the Old Harrisburg Bridge.
HARRISBURG, May 26.—The eastern end
of the old Harrisburg bridge was destroyed
by fire this morning. The flames were dis
covered about twelve o'clock, and before
one o'clock the entire portion of the struc
ture reaching from Harrisburg to Foster
Island was burned and fell into the chan
nel, threatening the Cumberland Valley
Railroad bridge, situated a few hundred
yards below it, and which was only saved
after much exertion. The old Harrisburg
bridge was projected under the patronage
of the Commonwealth, in 1811, and in 1816
the first toll was taken. The original cost
of the bridge was $192,000. In March, 1846,
the first section of the bridge, between the
then borough and Foster's Island, was car
ried away by an immense flood. It was
rebuilt in
,1847. As the railroad bridge is
not intended for the passage of footmen and
ordinary vehicles, the destruction of the
Harrisburg bridge is quite a serious inter
ruption to the ordinary communication be
lween the city and Curiabcrland county.
The bridge company, however, will take
immediate steps towards the establishment
of a ferry from this shore to the Island for
the accommodation of the public.
A Murderer Convicted.
Bogrort, May 26th.—The trial of John
Moran for shooting Mary Ellen Reamey.
resulted in a verdict of murder in the first
degree, and Chief Justice Bigelow sentenced
the prisoner to be hanged at such time as
the executive may designate. Previous to
being sentenced, Moran addressed the court
detailing his intimacy with his victim, and
indicating wanton behaviour on her part,
and jealousy on his as the cause of the
murder.
The _Presbyterian Clturch—Plan for Be-
Union.
ST. Loris, May 25.—The subject of the re
union of the old and new school churches
was reporte3 upon in the Old School Assem
bly to-day. The plan suggested is for the
appointment of a commission, consisting of
nine ministers and six elders, to meet a
similar committee of the New School As
sembly, who, after consultation, if they
deem re-union desirable or practicable, are
to report the measures for its accomplish
ment to the next Assembly.
A motion by Dr. Vandyke that the "Con
federate" Assembly be invited to join in the
union was tabled.
The report of the Committee was adopted
by a large majority.
The remainder of the day was mainly oc
cupied by Dr. Thomas and Dr. Wm.Breok
anridge in speeches relative to the Louis
ville Presbytery case, the latter taking the
ground that the Assembly has no right to
ignore the existence of the Synod and act
directly with the Presbytery.
A series of patriotic resolutions on the
state of the country was passed by the New
School Assembly.
The Old School Assembly will take an ex
cursion to Pilot Knob and Iron Mountain
to-morrow.

-CITY BULLETIN.
WEST PEILADELpHIA.--The high situa
tion of this district, elevated as it is, so far
above the water, renders the advent of rain
an absolute necessity.. Everywhere the
thoroughfares are again almost ankle• deep
in dust, and the crossings are intolerable.
This, we found, in our morning visit to the
police station, where there were some few
items of interest. On the slate, special
"mem." for the BULLETIN use, was a brief
report of the fire,
yesterday morning, in
Darby, noticed in the morning papers. It
ran thus:
"Yesterday morning, about 9 o'clock, a
fire broke out in the ' picking room" of Si
meon Lloyd. The fire was soon subdued CO
by the active exertions of the firemen: The
Monroe steam fire engine was first on the
ground, and to the exertions of ' its mem
bers, Mr. Lloyd owes no greater loss.
Damage, $lO,OOO ; fully insured."
Visiting the .Aln2shouse we followed quite
a train of medical students, who were this
morning in attendance on the special clinic
of Dr. Maury. On Wednesdays the same
sort of "visitation" oceurs—d-side clinics,
in the different departments of the Phila
delphia Hospital, the lecturer, or rather de
monstrator, being Dr. Ziegler, one of the
corps of regular visiting physicians.
The vacancy occasioned by the death of
Dr. Tatt is not yet filled, but will be sup
plied next Monday, when the setni-monthly
meeting of the Board of Guardians of the
Poor occurs. From what we can learn, Dr.
Horatio G. Wood, long time a resident
physician in the hospital, will be elected.
He was a general favorite during his resi
dence, among officers as well as patients;
and the Board will, probably, accede to the
general desire. We have not learned who
are his opponents, but his appointment, we
learn, from a high official, is somewhat of a
certainty.
lAt the same Institution, to-day, the cen
sus was. Admitted 14-7 of each sex. There
were 3 births, a similar number of elope
ments, while 15 were discharged. Result,
2,974; last year, 2,509, making an increase of
465. Yesterday it was 448.
"Sothe world goes—
So the stream flows."
A FENIA N Rikro—ENGLISHMEN BEATEN.
—Yesterday afternoon some five or six
young men stopped at a tavern on the Balti
more turnpike near the city line. In the
bar-room were several Englishmen, whose
ages range between 50 and 60 years, and
who were engaged' quietly in conversation.
The other party announced themselves as
Fenians, and, at once commenced an attack
on the Englishmen. The latter were not
able to defend themselves much, on ac
count of age, and were pretty roughly
handled. Two were badly injured.
The roughs, after beating the Englishmen
until they got tired, commenced an indis
criminate destruction of property about the
house. Doors were broken in and windows
Fmashed. In fact, almost everything about
the place was demolished. Some of the
Sixteenth District police, who had been at
the fire at Lard's mill, were sent for. Offi
cer Pritner immediately proceeded to the
scene of the riot and succeeded in capturing
two of the ringleaders. The prisoners gave
their names as Frank Herres and Patrick
Heins. They were walked nearly four miles
to the station house, and after a hearing be
fore Alderman Allen were sent to Moya
mensing.
HIGHWAY ROBBERY.-A. gentleman from
Dayton, Ohio, was knocked down on San
som street near Seventh, about four o'clock
this morning, by three or four men, who
beat him and then robbed him of his pocket
book containing a small amount of money.
The stranger had been in company with the
men during the night, drinking, and :then
they discovered thathe had money about this
person. Awaiting a favorable opportunity
they attacked him. An effort was made to'
obtain a package of money which the
Ohioan carried in his breast pocket, but he
fought desperately and cried lustily for
help. The robbers then ran off, but one of
them was captured, He was committed by.
Alderman Beitler under the name of John
Dillon.
ATTEMPTED ROBBERY.—During last night
an attempt was made to rob a tailor store
and a dyeing establishment, Nos. 205 and
207 South Ninth:streeL The doors, which
had been fastened, were found open this
morning, about two o'clock, but nothing
was taken. The thieves, who are supposed
to have been secreted on the premises when
they were closed, were frightened off by the
police.
TILL TAPpnEts.—Two youngsters, named
Wm. Oliver and John Lahey, were arrested
yesterday , for having robbed the money
drawer of the variety store of McKennedy
Richmond, at Front and Carpenter streets.
They were taken before Alderman Potten
ger and were committed to answer.
LARCENY.—Mary Hill was arrested yes
terday at Front and Spruce streets, upon
the charge of the larceny, of $lB. She was
taken before Alderman White,and was com
mitted to answer.
Fotrrintrao.—An infant, about one week
old, neatly wrapped up in a shawl, was
found last night en the steps of a store at
Fifth and Market streets. The foundling
was sent to the Almshouse this morning.

THIRD EDITION.
XXXIXtn Congress—First SeSSiOll.
WASHINGTON, May 26.
The business of the morning hour was
dispensed with.
On motion of Mr. Wilson (Iowa) the Sen.-
ate amendment to the House bill relating
to passports was concurred in. The bill has
therefore passed both houses.
On motion of Mr. Davis (N. Y.), the Sen
ate bill granting lands to aid in the con
struciion of a railroad and telegraph line
from the Central Pacific Railroad, in Cali
fornia, to Portland,Oregon, was taken from
the Sneaker's table, read twice, and referred
to the Committee on the Pacific. Railroad.
Mr. Broomall (Pa.) introduced a bill to
proVide for computing the beunties of
veteran volunteers so as to protect their
rights. Read twice and referred to the Com
mittee on Military Affairs. The bill pro
poses to exempt the hundred dollars
veteran bounty from the computation of
what is to be deducted under the bill to
equalize bounties.
Mr. Cullom (Ill.) offered a resolution
which was adopted, requiring the &cram.;
of the Interior to furnish certain informa
tion as to applications for the. reissue of the
'Dundee patent for cultivatore.
Mr. Lawrence (Pa.) made a personal ex
planation, retracting, to a certain extent;
some remarks which he had made in a run
ning debate a few weeks since, reflecting on
the character of Colonel McKelvy, recently
appointed - United States Marshal for the
Western District of Pennaylvania.
Mr. Woodbridge (Vt.) hitroduced a joint
resolution referring the claim of Richard
W. Meade to the Court of Claims. Read
twice and referred to the Judiciary Com
mittee.
On motion of Mr. Cook (Ill.,) the Senate
bill making further provisions for the estab
lishing of an armory and arsenal at Peck
Island was taken from the Speaker's table,
read twice and referred to the Committee on
Military Affairs.
The House then went into Committee of
the Whole on the State of the Union, and
resumed the consideration of-the tax bill.
Mr. Morrill (Vt.) from the Committee on
Ways and Means, reported a new para
graph for that amending section 103 d of the
existing law, and which had been reserved
some days since. It imposes a tax of two
and a half per cent, on gross receipts from
passengers and mails on railmia, canal,
steamboat and stage companies : Provided,
That such companies shall have the right to
add the-tax to their fares.
On motion of Mr. Farnsworth (IIL) the
last proviso was struck out and the amend
ment, as so modified, was agreed to.
Mr. HotPhkiss (N. Y.) moved to add to
the amendment a proviso that the horse
railroads - shall have the right to add the
tax to their fares.
Mr. Stevens (Pa,) thought •it would be
much better to let the horse railroad com
panies have their charters amended so that
they should charge what might be thought
right, rather than let them add on the tax.
Mr. Dodge (N. Y.) also opposed the
amendment, instancing the oppressive
management of the horse railroads in New
York citY,
Mr. Davis spoke in favor of the amend
ment and in defence of the Horse Railroad
Companies.
Debate was closed upon the paragraph
and the amendment of Mr. HoteMesw was
rejected.
Mr. Lynch (Me.) offered an amendment
exempting from the; tax horse railroad&
operated in cities whose population does not
exceed 40,000. Referred.
