Riot in Memphis. -

MEMPHrs. May 1, ls66.-This evening 3
riot occurred in the southern portion of the
city between policemen and negro soldiers,
growing out of the attempt of the officers to
arrest = white man whom the negroes de-
tsrmined to protect. Twenty or thirty po-
licsmen assembled and kept up fight for
q couple of hours with about one hundred
and fifty negroes. One policeman was
killed and three wounded. Eight to ten
negroes we're killed and several wounded.
The 18th regulars were finally called ont,
and at 10 o'clock everything was quiet.

A Pungent Sermon.

st. Jerome, in one of his sermons, gave
8 rebuke to the women Of his day, which
has seemed to be apropOs to our own, that
it is circulated just now in Paris quite uni
versally:
"Ahl l shall tell you who are the women
that scandalize Christians. They are those
who daub their cheeks with red, and their
eyes with blsck-thOse who plaster faces
too white to be human, reminding as of
idols-those who can not shed tear with
out its tracing a furrow on the painted
surface OF their faces-Whose ripe years
fail to teach them that they are growing
old-those whose head-dresses are made OF
other peoples haiF-those who chalk win
kles into counterfeit presentnnent OF youth,
and those who affect the demeanor Of bash-
ful maideus in the presence Of troops OF
grand children D."

Correspondence Nashville Banner.l
WAsHIEoToN, April 81, 1866.
The President has had friendly inter
view with the Reconstruction Committee.
It is little remarkable how the pot. house
politicians of Congress will" when they
come under the magnetic influence Of An
drew Johnson; and therefore The meeting
Of Daniel with the lions was quiet and pa
cifc. One result Of the conference is the
mutual agreement OF the parties upon bill
for the admission of Tennessee. This will
be reported next week, and will pass both
Houses of Congress. In that event the
ka6eas corpus win be restored to the State,
and the people will be called upon to revise
their Constitution, remodel their Constitu-
ton, and set out in bona tide manner to
conform to the exactions of Congress. Even
in Radical circles here the existing provi-
siOnal government is regarded as neither
legal or binding. The idea that 8 minori-
ty can control majority except by force is
secuted, and it will be required that the
whole people give bond to the Federal
Government. In that event you had better
turn Brownlow out of Office, and elect some
such man as Trigg or East IN his place.
All the Radicals, from Sumner to Horace
Greedy denounce Brownlow as mere time
server, whose Radicalism springs from a
hope that it will keep him in his pleasant
Gubernatorial berth.
PRESIDENTS POSITION ON AFFAIRS IN TENN.
The President regards the fracas in the
General Assembly as unfortunate. He was
bitterly opposed 10 the secession of any part
of the members-particularly of his own
friends. He is against the project of Brown
low for the establishment of SO parate State
out of East Tennessee. At the same time
he thinks that il is for the people to decide
for themselves, not for him, as to what is
best to be done. He is no longer Cover
nor of Tennessee, but President of all the
States. There is no doubt, think, that
if the people in their primary capacity
should hold a convention and reform their
Government that he would refuse to sustain
Brownlow in suppressing such movement
by force. AS far as the majority in the
Legislature is concerned, he regards it as
an ignorant rabble who could be easily dis
posed of by the right means. But he is
very taeiturn, and rightly SO, on this sub
ject, and does not wish to be drawn into it's
discussion f.

HoN. rpMuNp COOPER.

Hon. Edmund Cooper acts at the White
House as a sort of ex-oficio Private Secre-
tary to the President. The other day Mr..
johnson observed, in presenting him to
General Grant, Some of the new made
loyalists in Tennessee call him a rebel, but
he was the only man who had the courage
during the summer Of '62 to stump the
State with me in behalf of the Union, AID
leave you to decide as to his loyalty"
General Grant smiled Significantly and said:
''CalIing names is very easy pastime."
Mr.. Cooper is deseryedly popular among
all classes. His courteous department, ear
nestness ospaaner aud thorough ability
commend hsa5s3ias3 the msster-spirit Of the
Tennessee delegation. There is no doubt
that he will take high position upon the
floor of the House of Representatives.
Rumor says that his intimacy with the!
household .ofahe President is something
more Il P5urTSg3SSiitical, but Of this the gossips
knoNsaJest. and am not advised. Certain
it is that he is quite an addition to the Exc
outive family. and will be seriously missed
when his Congressional duties call him
away FROM the White House.

A terrible disease has broken outamong
the mules in the neigbborhood Of Helena,
Ark, and Vicksburg. Miss, which threat
ems the most serious consequences. AL
ready above one thousand mules have died.
In one neighborhood, near Helena, two
hundred died in one night. So far no means
have been discovered to arrest the epidemic,
nor any remedy after the animal is attacked.
Strange to say, there are no premonitory
symptoms attending the disease, which al
ways does its work in about eight hours.

NEW YoRK. April 3O.-The TFiJans's
speeisl says: After four months of the most
searching Investigation and dispassionate
discussion among the members of Congress,
it is believed the plan will meet with the
entire sanction of all shades of opinion and
sentiment. Thus far no man among the
Union members of either House has ex-
pressed any dissent from this plan. The
friends of the President gave assurance to-
night that if Congress carries out the
scheme in good faith it will receive his CO.
operation.
Neither of his organs here, it is stated,
will commit themselves upon the PROPOSE
ton. Tomorrow Thad. Stevens avows his
readiness to acquiesee in the Measure
The Lieutenant General expresses lis ap-
prevail, and no measure of Congress has
challenged such universal assent in all
questions. 1t is not anticipated that any
material amendments will be carried, and
the States viii be invoked to convene their
Legislatures so as to secure the adoption by
loyal States, thus stimulating concurrent
action by States lately in rebellion.

Tmportant Letter from Gen. Grant.


After the refusal of Gov. Brownlow to

discharges, aud his escape was truly miraou-
lous, as the burning wads of theg guns struck
him in the face. Capt. Holmes, in COM

creauts with his sword, and gave them
some sore heads -Indepsndent.
