From Memphis.

MEMPHIS, June 10.-Quiet pervades the
entire city. The ready submission of the in
habitants to federal rule is surprising and
gratifying. The civil authorities continue to
discharge their functions as heretofore. The
provost marshaPs Office is thronged with APP
plicants for permits to proceed north. All
persons are requested to take the oath of allie
glance before permission is granted.
The city recorder was yesterday arrested by
the provost marshal for causing the arrest Of
a citizen for conversing in the street with a
Union soldier. The rebel cavalry are scour-
ing the country around Grand Junction, de-
stroying all the cotton that can be found. APP
plications to ship six thousand bales of cotton
have been already made
The Memphis Argus is still outspoken in
secession sympathy. The Avalanche is more
guarded, and inclined to submit quietly. Both
advise peaceable submission to the federal
rule.
Many stores openly resumed business.
Some dealers refuse confederate money, but
receive Tennessee bank notes. The markets
are rather sparsely supplied with meats and
vegetables. Two rebel steamers were captur-
ed yesterday above the city.
Many of the Memphis banks are at Colum-
bus, Miss Gen. Hindman took forced loan
of a million from them, a week ago, in the
name of the southern confederacy. Com
mander Davis is sending dispatches overland
to Gen. Halleck.

Rebel reports from RichmOnd.

WASHINGTON, June 1I.-Richmond papers
received here contain extracts tromthe Vlcks-
burg Press, which testify to the brilliant ope-
rations of our fleet in their vicinity. News
from Vicksburg to the 30th ult., published in
the Richmond Examiner of the 9th says =
''Two of the enemy'S gunboats amused them
selves by throwing shot and shell into the
heart of Vicksburg. About l25 missiles were
thrown, comparatively few of which appeared
to be directed at our forts We have heard
of no casualties beyond considerable damage
to some private residences and one or two
churches"
The reports of Vicksburg papers state that
De Soto, Miss, has been destroyed by our
fleet, and add that ''but three little buildings
now mark the spot which once glorified in
the title of city" The same report adds
that the federal gunboats shelled the town of
Grand Cult, Monday, and then the transports
landed a number of troops who pillaged and
sacked the town of every thing they could
lay their hands on.
The Richmond Dispatch of the 9th, de-
votes its editorial columns to deploring the
fact that there is found no individual so des-
perate and weary of living by the wretched-
ness this invasion has brought on him, as to
substitute for what may be an ingenious sui
eide, a glorious martyrdom 1t is intended as
an incentive for procuring the assassination
of the United States officers who have taken
possession of rebel territory. The paper is
printed on half sheet, and is a striking evil
dence of the impoverished condition of af-
fairs in Richmond.
A letter from Staunton Va, dated June G,
and published in the same paper, states that
on Sunday jackson met and engaged Shields,
after the re-capture by tederals of Front Roy
al, taking with it $50 of the 18th Georgia reg
iment. The rebels claim to have repulsed our
troops and taken 600 prisoners. Their own
loss they give as being small.
Telegraphic news from Augusta, dated 9TH,
reports that Gov. Andrew Johnson of Tennes-
see was killed in Nashville, by man named
George Brown, who in turn had been killed
The same dispatch says Gen. Butler had been
killed in New Orleans, but adds that the re-
port lacks confirmation.

WASHINGTON, June lO.-The post office
department has received information that the
Overland Mail Co. is now ready, and will re-
sumo services.
The senate to-day confirmed A. V. S. Lind
sey as postmaster at Nashville and Capt. A.
?. House as brigadier
Adjutant General Thomas was transacting
business as usual to-day at the war depart
ment. This is a sufficient reply to the state
ment that he has been suspended from office.
1t is not known to his most intimate friends
that court of inquiry, as reported at a dis
lance, is engaged in the investigation of any
of his official transactions.
A gentleman of eminence, directly from the
headquarters of the army of the Potomac,
expresses the opinion, based upon what he
learned from interviews with military officers,
that the taking of Richmond by our forces is
merely question of time.
The circuit court to-day in the matter of
John and VIM. jackson, claimed as fugitive
slaves by Dennis Duval of Maryland, reiter-
ated its former decision in refusing to admit
testimony as to the loyalty of the claimant,
but permitted the admission of testimony
as to whether the slaves had been ac-
tually engaged in aid of the rebellion
The fugitives were returned to the claimant.
The counsel fol- the slaves claimed that the
court should return the fugitives only at the
requisition of the governor of Maryland, but
the court decided against the point.

Latest views from Memphis.

MEMPHIS, June 9.-Iptelligence received
this morning says that as soon as the news OF
the defeat of the rebel fleet, and the surren-
der of the city reached St. Francis river,
Ark, steamer, acting under Gen. Hindmans
orders, went up and down that stream, and
destroyed several thousand bales of cotton.
Some four hundred bales were burned at Mad
ison, Ark, about forty miles west of the city.
Last night and yesterday it was as quiet here
as in any northern city. To-day some Of the
stores are open. Rebel scrip is generally re-
fused There has been no movement Of the
fleet or the land forces since last Friday. 1t
is reported that thirty thousand bales of cot
ton have been burned here. Not much bust
ness is being done, and the currency is left to
repnlate itself

WASHINGTON, June II.
SENATE,

w ASHINGTON, JUNE L.
SENATE.
The matter of the exchange of prisoners
was brought before the senate by Mr.. Brown
ING. Mr.. TRUMBULL wanted to know if the
senator had any reason to suppose the rebels
would keep faith and exchange prisoners. 1t
was well known that they refused to deliver
Col. Corcoran after the privateers were sent
to them. He was willing to make exchanges,
but wanted to know what assurance the gov
eminent had that the rebels would keep faith
in the matter.
Mr.. DAVIS said that Buckner ought not to
be exchanged, but should be taken to Ken
lucky and hung.
Mr.. BROWNING argued that we must adopt
some rule in regard to all prisoners. 1t had
no right to deliver over prisoners of war to
the civil authorities. If Buckner was hung,
it would only inaugurate a system of retalia-
ton.
On motion of Mr.. LATHAM, the resolution
was postponed till tomorrow.
Mr.. WILSON of Massachusetts introduced
bill supplementary to the act for the release
of certain persons held to service and labor
in the District of Columbia.
Mr.. HALE introduced bill to repeal the
act to prevent and punish frauds on the part
of officers entrusted with making contracts
for the government.
On motion of Mr.. SALISBURY, a resolution
was adopted calling on the secretary of state
to inform the senate what amount of money
was paidto Maine and Massachusetts, for yield
ing to the Ashburton treaty, and what has
been done with the money stipulated to be paid
for certain lands taken by Great Britain, and,
if the same is not paid, why not?
The bill for the relief of General Grant
passed.
The Pacific railroad bill was taken up and
Mr. LATHAM spoke in its favor. After an ex-
ecutive session adjourned
HOUSE.
Mr.. STEVENS reported back the tax bill
from the committee of ways and means. The
senate had made 314 amendments, and a
number Of them of an unimportant character.
In order to facilitate definite action he moved
a general Inconvenience in all the amend
ments, and then asked a committee of con-
ference. Some debate followed. Motion
adopted SO against IS.
The house concurred in the report of the
committee of conference on disagreeing with
the amendments to the Indian appropriation
bill. Mr.. LOOMS introduced joint resolu-
ton recommending, in addition to the 4th of
July, the l4th of June and 18th of Septem-
Der as public holidays.
The senate bill defining the pay and emol-
uments of certain officers of the army, with
amendments, one of which embodies Mr. Ar
nold'S bill to give citizenship to all volunteers
who serve and are honorably discharged on
proving one years residence, and another to
punish fraudulent contractors by court mar
martial with fine and Imprisonment, and to
bring all contractors under the articles of war,
was passed.
The house also passed the senate resolution
regulating the employment of convicts in the
district.
The house concurred in the report of the
conference committee on the disagreement as
to the bill making appropriations for bounties
under the volunteer act of July last, the en-.
tire sum being five millions Of dollars.
