[From Our Regular Correspondent.] Washington, May 5, 1866. The Joint Committee’s programme of reconstruc tion does not appear to give as much satisfaction to the faithful everywhere as was expected, consider able dissatisfaction being manifested with it among the radical followers at home. The plan does not go far enough to suit aome of the more advanced spirits. It is considered here as merely a political movement, made by the committee through policy to supply what the country was calling for, a geographical plan. But it is understood that the originators of the plan do not expect to pass it. It is this consideration which pre vents the extreme wing of the party from breaking out into open mutiny. But for the assurance, that there was no serious probability of the plan becoming the law, the extreme radicals would more noisily mani fest their discontent with it. The extreme radicals think public sentiment at the North is ripening in their favor. They hope too to profit by the patience of tho South becomiug exhausted, and producing im prudence. Hence they are willing for delay. The thousand and ten. [From the N. T. Evening Express.] Tlie Roll of Death.

Therefore the semi-autliorattve no tice of his present status created considerable sur prise. It is said that there is an alliance offensive and de fensive of the closest cli aracter between Stanton and Seward. This is a curious fact, but there is no doubt about its truth. If Stanton had announced himself distinctly against the President’s policy at this junc ture, when the blood is up between the belligerents, it is probable that upon the adiournthent of Con gress, the experiment of the power of the President to remove from office, would have been tried on Mr. The circles have been told to I Stanton, and no doubt Mr. Stanton felt it in the at- ut that establishment are anything but or polite.

Killian is gener- x nr- to the rank and file, and O’Mahony i3 half crazed. Nothing but tlie immediate From this, it appears first, that of killed in battle and of wounds, there was ouc officer to every eighteen enlisted men, showing greater suffering from tho chances of* battle of officers, who, with full ranks, con stitute about a twenty-fifth part of the army, than of enlisted men. Secondly, it appears on the other hand, that only one officer to every ninety men has died of disease. The several cases of this remarkauid dispro portion are evident. Officers are better sheltered than unlisted men. Their food is generally belter in quality, aud more varied in kind. They are not so much crowded together in tents, and are therefore less sub- ject to contagious and epidemic diseases, i’hey have superior advantages in regard to personal cleanliness. As prisoners of war, too, they are generally treated more leniently. Another favoring and by no means least potential cause of a psychological nature, is the superior elasticity of spirit aud moral power ot endu rance, which is given to a man by investing him with a commission and its accompanying authority, respon sibility and hopes of advancement.” Another fact worthy of notice, is: “ The extraordinary mortality among the colored troops from disease. It is seen, that, while but two thousand nine hundred and ninety-seven died iu ac tion and-ot wounds, the enormously large number of twenty-six thousand three hundred. and one died of disease. Among the white troops the proportion of deaths in action aud from wounds to the deaths from disease, is about as one to two; among the colored troops as 1 to 8. About, one hundred and eighty j thousand yolored men were enlistecl in the army dur- i ing the war,* of whom accordingly nearly one out of j every seven died of disease. -Ifie general proportion ! among white troops is one to fifteen. These figures indicate conclusively, that the pegro; in tho condition i in* which, the war found-him, was less capable than ! the white man of enduring the trials, physical and*, moral, of military service. It may be assumed, that ! where one died of. disease, at least five others were i seriously sick, so that a very large proportion of the | colored troops must have been constantly upon the : sick list.” A showing of this kind, it strikes us, is quite as apt ; to provoke moral reflections as merely to enlarge one’s i notions of military economy. The cruelty of making ] the unhappy black race occupy so prominent a place ! in a war, for which lie is unfltted by nature, and in j which death was his sure portion, will at once occur to the xibilautbropic mind; while the inhumanity of i the “ radical” clamor which insisted upon giving him j that jiosition, will remain an eternal monument of their heartlessness aud hypocrisy. called O’Mahony a “liar,” to which the A „ ... ?:■i rted in equally polite and unstatesmanlike ; Comptroller of tne Treasury ensures them against L .juy.

Benteen, late of the U. S. A., and Commander of this post, purchased recently a farm near this city, which be was improving for his own residence. Tho farm lies about two and a half miles from tlie city, on the McDonough road. For some time he has been oc cupying a tent on the premises. His lady arrived here on Friday night and was quietly domiciled with him. About ten o’clock on Sunday night, four men dres sed in citizens’ clothes, went to his horsodot aud de manded his horses,of tlie negroes. Tlie negrofcs re fused to give them up aud the ruffians fired on them. Healing the firing, the Colonel ran out of his lot to see what was the occasion of it, and he was beset by the four ruffians. Resolving to defend himself, he drew his repeater and commenced firing, and fired until he emptied it. In the meantime he was tired at by the robbers, and snot twice in tho leg-and once in the hip. The robbers then demanded his surrender, and think ing further resistance would endanger the safety of his wife, aud that the scoundrels were intent upon robbery, he ceased resisting. They then told„ him they wanted his fine roan horse, and bade him unlock Ins stable. He told them to get iu as best they could. They broke down the door, entered and took four fiue horses and escaped with them. This was after they iwd searched the colonel. They found nothing upon his person, however, for as soon us he ascertained the in tention of the marauders, he had cast his watch and money into some bushes growing near, and secured them again after the thieves had left. During the firing Col. Benteen was shot iu three places, but not dangerously. One negro was shot in the head, one in the back, the pole of the tent ifi which Mrs. Benteen was, was cut off above her. letting the tent drop down upon her, and a small negro girl who was iu the tent was. slightly wounded iu the back. The Colonel says all four of the men were dressed genteelly, and talked well. No. fracQi of them had been discovered further than their tracks to South river up to a lute hour yesterday evening. A party of brave men, however, are out in pursuit* of them, aud it is to be hoped that they will be apprehended and brought to justice. By an action of the last Legislature, the crim| of horse stealing was made punishable by hanging.

The Silk sAeb of South Carolina.—Dr. B. G. I Wilder, late surgeon oi lhe 55th regiment Massacliu- ■ setts volunteers (colored), gave the first ol’ four lec- | tures upon the -above subject, in Boston, Tuesday ' evening. The Jpurnal give the following brief but iu- ! teresting synopsis: c ^ j The first of this species *of spider was discovered * by the lecturer, on the north end of Folly Island, I while iu camp there in August, 1863. He wound from its body, in one hour and a quarter, one hundred and fifty yards of yellow silk. The next year another offi j cer wound from thirty spiders, three thousand foul ! hundred and eighty-four yards, or nearly two miles of i Jhe silk. A single thread oi this was .strong enough i to sustain a weight of from forty-four.to one hundred ) aud seven grains. In 1865 Dr. Wilder showed his specimen to Prof. Aggasiz aud others, to whom the species was new. lieturning to Charleston, he re sumed his researches, and after a variety of adven tures and disappointments, succeeded in getting & number of the Spiders. In the course of the season these all died, from lack ! of knowledge as to their habits, mode of living, &c. | - From the eggs deposited, however, many others were ' produced. It is the habit of the stronger to devour the weaker, so that out of several thousand only a few hundred were raised. . The fact, however, was clearly demonstrated that they could be raised and live through a Northern winter. In the succeeding lec- ;s the nfetliod of securing the Silk, aud other facts in regard to this interesting discovery will be given.' Specimens of tlie silk were exhibited, which wore of a golden yellow and a silver white, and as brilliant as the metals in appearance. It is elastic, while the silver colored thread is non-elastic, and is used for the main stays of the web. Dr* Wilder has a lot oi these ooiders living in the Cambridge Conservatory, and many young uu«ms ... um m - tor lias made full communications to the .American Academy, and to the Boston Society of Natural His tory.

Crinoline is Dead.—We .give a positive statement, on the subject from d London letter, which our fail- readers may take fyr what it is worth. The writer says, under date 34st March: “Talking of fashion, crinoline is done for. it has gone out of the fashionable world all at once, like a melting snow or a vanishing rainbow. How could a poet say, ‘A thing of beauty is a joy forever?" Only ibe servants and very common people now wear the wonderful expansions, and they will drop tliqin as soon as they get a good loot at their slim betters. The sudden change is very droll. You meet a lady iu the street, and look behind her to see n she has not dropped something. The rotundities gradually col lapsed, and all at once vanished, and are now, ‘though iost to sight, to memory dear.’ But what is to become of the manufacturers of those wonderful articles which the French call cages? Can they be used iu the fisheries; or foe hen-coops? Now we have the gored dresses aud trains of tho first empire, which, iu a month’s time; will seem so becoming aud beautiful that we shall wonder how- w r e could ever have admired, any other fashion.” very truly, yours, II.

[From the Atlanta Intelligencer, 8th inst.] A bold operation took place about a mile out on the Peach-Tree road on Saturday. A two-horse Govern ment wagon had been sent to the freeduien’s. camp to convey rations, and was returning to the city empty. When it had reached the corporate limits, or there abouts, two men armed with Colt’s repeaters stepped from tlie bushes and demanded the driver to halt, at the sametimo presenting the pistols to his head, with the modest request that he would deliver over “those horses.” The party having in charge the wagon be ing unarmed, no resistance was made, when the two highwaymen quietly unloosed the harness, mounted the horses, and galloped off in regular “ Dick Turpiu” style. The transaction took place iu broad daylight. No suspicion is attached to any one in particular. The perpotrators aro supposed to belong to a regular organized band of horse thieves known to be prowlirig around the country adjacent io this city, and doubt less a part of the same gang who committed the out rage upon the premises of Col. Benteen on Sunday night. • Death of Count Gurowski.—Count Adam de Gu- rowski, who died on the 4tli iiist, at Washington, ot typhoid fever, was a Polish publicist of note. He was born in'in the Palatinate of Kali6tz, and even as school boy showed so livolya sympathy with the Polish cause that he was expelled from Hie gymnasia of War saw aud Kaliatz. He was one of tiio projectors of and participate s iu tlie. revolution of 1830, and was sent us all a^eiit of the Re|Tublicana to France. After the suppression of the insurrection he lived several years as an exile in France, where ho adopted many of tho views of Fourier. In 1836 he was, in consequence a book in which he advocated the idea of Panalavis called to Russia and employed in the private chancery of tho Emperor. This situation he retained until 1844. Iu 1849 he cameito the United States, where he has resided ever since.. He was the author of numer ous works in the Polish, German, French and English languages, some of which attracted considerable at tention.
