A Washington special to the World, of Wednesday, says, that in the decoration of the graves of the Federal dead at Arlington, Mon day, “the colored soldiers appear to have been wholly ignored by the Grand Army of the Re public. The negroe dead occupied a cemetery some distant apart from that devoted to the Union soldiers, and no preparations had been made to include it in the operations of the pro gramme, and so Cnffy, for once, went unnoticed. Geo. T. Downing, the colored restaurateur of the Capitol, is highly incensed at this slight to his raco, and proposes to memorialize Congress to have the bodies of the colored soldiers taken up and buried in the same cemetery with the whites, “that no distinction may be made on account of color.” As these dead soldiers had no votes, it was a useless expenditure of time and flowers to deco rate their graves. This was a sharp, practical, characteristic way of looking at the matter, and when you get a Radical to look at anything in any other light, please telegraph us at once. We beg to call the attention of the black people about here who went down to Andersonville to strew flowers upon the graves of the whits dead there, to the manner in which the white Radi cals at Washington treated the graves of the black dead at Arlington. Derby Day at Epson. London, June 1.—The Derby of this year has not been excelled by any of its predecessors.— The day was fine, the crowds immense, the race excited and closely contested and the result un expected. At snnset yesterday the peoplo com menced moving to the scene, and up to noon to-day the roads to the Downs were filled with unending streams on foot, on horseback and in carriages. All the morning London highway was packed with a solid mass for four miles from the race course with vehicles of every description. The scene from the grand stand just before the start was one of unusual splendor. A fringe of carriages, from five to ten deep, lined the entire circuit, and hundreds of thousands of spectators were crowded between them and the track. Present on the grand stand were the Prince and Princess of Wales, Prince Leopold and the King of Belgium, attended by a large and bril liant throng of the nobility and aristocracy. Also many members of Parliament, Cabinet Ministers, representatives of the* bench, and persons eminent in all departments of public life. The track wasoleared by mounted police men with difficulty, but not far from the ap pointed time the horses were brought out. The excitement of the spectators was wrought to the highest pitch by the appearance of the fif teen horses entered for the race. McGregor, the favorite, was tremendously cheered. Betting differed little from that last night, being 700 to 400 on McGregor, seven to one against Camel, and twenty to one against Kingcraft. All being ready, a good start was obtained, and the horses dashed away. As McGregor began to fall behind the great est astonishment was ' manifested.' When Kingcraft took the lead the excitement was most intense, and reached its height when he come in winner, with Palmerston second and Muster elose behind. The race had hardly ended when a drenching shower fell, which lasted for a few moments and was succeeded by the brightest snnshine. Kingcraft won the race in 2:45. The following is the summary: Lord Fal mouth's b. e. Kingcraft 1, W. S. Crawford’s b. c. Palmerston 2, Lord Wilton’s Muster 3. Will Stick Out. The Washington correspondent of the Balti more Gazette writes as follows: On memorial day' the Turnpike from Alex andria to Arlington was thrown open to all with out question. It being memorial day, every one was allowed to pass free. The proprietors of the Aqueduct bridge acted*differently. Al though requested to do so, they refused to let any one pass free save the mnsicians and com mittee men. Every pedestrian, carriage, cart or wagon, had to pay the usual toll The pro prietors of the turnpike are all ex-Confeder- ates, and the proprietors of the bridge are Northern men, most prominent of whom is Oakes Ames, M. C. and one of the richest men of Massachusetts.. And we have no donbt that Ames signs him self, like old Cotton Mather did, "yours in yo bowells of Chryste.” Ncvr-s to Us. The World's Washington special, of Wednes day, says: William C. Morrill, Colleolor of Internal Rev enue for the Second District of Georgia, was at the Internal Revenue Bureau to-day to obtain from Commissioner Delano the services of a numbor of detectives to assist in breaking np the system of counterfeiting, which he reports prevails in that State to pn alarming extent. Wo think there must be some mistake about this matter. We have heard of only two or three arrests, at any rate, in this section, within a twelvemonth. Bbignoli and his Italian opera have "busted” in Chicago. Lefranc, the tenor, would’nt come anless he war paid $2,700 for the week. Brig- nob eould’nt find the $2,700, and threw up the sponge. The most fashionable and becoming articles for the watering place season are to be widows’ caps, which are mode in the form of a small triangle to indicate that the wearer is ready to try angling for a fresh rise. Rev. Mr. Curley, of Mantla, New York, who last winter eould’nt see how a Democrat could be a christicn, was one night last week caught flagrante ddiclu with a gay widow belonging to his congregation. ~ An Iowan gave his wife $6,000 to keep safe during his absence. She got another fellow to help her, and they have kept it so safe the husband can’t find it, nor them either. One hundred and twenty Swiss emigrants recently arrived at New York, passed through Lynchburg, Ya.,afew days agoen route for Water Valley, Mississippi, where they propose to locate. A Louisiana white legislator invited his coV ored colleague to call upon him, but the wife of the latter declaring that she "was too good to call on such white trash.” An unpleasantness has ensued between the Radical Honorables. Overstocked. —The Atlanta Intelligencer says a verdant looking country darkey was in that city day before yesterday trying to sell a pair of foxes, bnt he found no demand. Market over stocked. '• ’ \ Bishop Ltnch, of Charleston, who has been in Rome all the winter, in attendance upon the (Ecumenical Counoil, arrived Monday in New York, and will reach Charleston to-morrow. Congressional. Washington, June 2.—A hundred brewers, of New York, petition not to be classified as manufacturers of spiritious liquors; and two hundred tobacco manufacturers of New York petition for a uniform tax of sixteen cents a pound. Mr. Root introduced a bill authorizing a bridge over the Arkansas river, at Little Rock. Mr. Clark, of Texas, introduced a bill donating certain Federal property, in Galveston, to that isity. A resolution paying Hhnt two thousand; Sypher, four thousand ; McCranie, three thou sand ; Morey, three thousand, and Ryan three thousand five hundred dollars, all contestants from Louisiana, passed by 97 to 69. The tax bill was resumed, the auestion being on the income tax. No definite result was reached. In the Senate Mr.’ Flannagan introduced a resolution in favor of the construction of an in ternational railroad. Mr. Harris introduced a resolution directing the committee on. commerce to take into con sideration the reconstruction of the levees de stroyed during the war. He estimates the ex pense at $36,000,000. The committee is to re port next session. This resolution is still un der discussion. In tho House the Tax bill - was resumed. Great diversity of opinion exists. Many five minntes speeches were made. Mr. Schenck closed the discussion. He said the Committee had proposed to reduce the income tax by in creasing exemption to fifteen hundred dollars, which would be’a reduction of nearly sixty mil lions. His own opinion was that this was about as much as could be safely done at this time. But he was not at all prepared to say that next year or the year after, and so on, these rodnetions might not be continued. Gentlemen were not to be misled by supposing that allthat was to be proposed by the Committee of Way3 and Means in the shapeof redaction of taxation, was inolnded in this bill, and he had no objec tion in statiDg distinctly, so that there might be no misunderstanding, that he had a section or two prepared to be offered at the close of tho bill, which was a bill to rednee internal taxa tion and for other purposes, which would so amend, by short provisions, the tariff, as to take off some twenty-three or twenty-four mil lions more than this bill would take off the In ternal Revenue bill. If the proposition to strike ont the income (ax should prevail, he wanted gentlemen to remember that they wonld not only strike out twenty-five millions of revenue, the loss of which could not be afforded, bnt wonld strike out the only provisions made in law, and the only ones, as some thought, that could bo made in law for taxing income on U. S. bonds. In conclusion, Schenck moved the previous question. The previous question was seconded and by agreement the vote on the sections, relative to income tax, with all amendments, was post poned until to-morrow. Mr. Brooks offered an amendment to the 44th section, the effects of which would be to tax interest on all government bonds five per cent On a division, the epeaker announced the vote to bo ninety to sixty-five. Mr. Willard demanded the yeas and nays, re marking that this was taxing United States bonds held abroad, and was to that extent re pudiation. Mr. Allison moved to adjourn, which was agreed to by a vote of 93 to 52. The House then, at 4:10, and amid mnch excitement, ad journed. In the Senate the Franking abolishment was resumed . ' A motion to place the bill at the foot of the calender was defeated by 25 to 31; bnt was passed over by 33 to 26. The Indian appropriations were considered to exeentive session. Tho Harris resolution regarding levees was withdrawn from the committee on commerce and referred to the committee on finance, with an order to report as early as possible. Washington, June 3.—House—Further peti tions in favor of equal tobacco taxation were read. A bill was passed allowing appeals from the Probate to the Supreme Courts of Territories. The House concurred in. the amendments by the Senate to the deficiency bill. Tho amend ments were^for increasing the appropriations a million and a half. The bill goes to the Presi dent. , r The taxation bill was resumed. Mr. Butler rose and reported on tho Georgia bilL . "/ - ’’ The Speaker decided that it was not in order. Mr. Butler moved to set aside the tax bill. His motion was negatived. • The House is proceeding by ayes and nays to vote on various amondments to the tax bill. The Reconstruction Committee, last night, heard Maynard and Stokes at great length and concluded the testimony. The Tennessee in vestigation is closed. Some congressional ac tion will be recommended at the next meeting. The amnesty question was not considered. The Georgia bill which Butler endeavored to report is the bill heretofore agreed npon. The Georgia bill was not discussed last night in the Committee. Fourteen members of the Com mittee were present, eight of whom it is un derstood will oppose the bill. The apparent contradiction lies in the fact the bill was or dered without a full committee being present. A sharp contest is expected in the Hoase. Senate.—A resolution was passed for a spe cial committee to sit during the recess, to con sider a plan for protecting lands on the levees on the Mississippi from overflow. Mr. Spencer, of Alabama, made an unsuccess ful effort to get up a bill to remove the disabil ities from Martin E. Reynolds, of Mississippi. In the House the Commit?65 on Foreign Affairs decide against subsidies to foreign cables. Nominations Vayne McVeach, of Pennsylva nia, Minister to Constantinople; D. B. Cliffe, Assessor of Fifth Tennessee District.' The Judiciary Committeo.of the House unan- mously agreed to report a bill authorizing terms of the United States Court to be held at Helena, Arkansas. 1 In the Senate r. bill was introduced for an ap propriation to build a light house at Barnes’ Point, St. Joseph’s river, Florida. A memorial and .resolutions of Israelites of Indianapolis were presented, calling attention to the reported massacre of Jews in Boumania, and a resolution was. adopted calling npon the President for any information in the depart ment OI State on the subject. A joint resolution was introduced for tho in crease of pay to Assistant Marshals of Census. The Indian Appiopriation bill was farther considered. In the House the amenebnent making the in come tax three per cent., was -topted—115 to 78. Exemption increased to $20(a, _ TO te, 138 to 52. ^ The amendment limiting exemption for honse rent, to $500, passed. . ' “ ‘ “ The amendment taxing interest on United States bonds, was rejected. The previous question was moved by Mr. Schenck, when the House adjourned. It will vote to-morrow and then oomes the Georgia bill. Two sections covering Mr. Bebanek’s tariff bill will be offered as amendments to the bill reducing taxation. Washington, June 4.—House.—The House passed, with verbal amendments, the bill-’nu- r thorizing railroad bridges across ihe 'Alabaiha river near Selma and near Montgomery.,' "Mr. Schenck modified his amendment by reducing the duty on tea to fifteen cents per pound, and on coffee to three cents. He moved the previ ous question on the' first section,', as a' whofs, preventing votes on the . separate paragraphs. ' The Democrats have taken to'fillibustering; Senate.'—A bill to encourage the construc tion of the International Pacifiic Railroad of Texas, yasTeported 'with amendments. A' mo tion by Mr. Flanagan, to take it up was object ed to by Mr. Hamilton, of Texas, and the bill was laid over. In the House one hundred and twenty per sons of Louisville, Ey., petition for a redaction of the tax on manufactured .tobacco to sixteen cents. In the Senate the bill, cn a motion of Mr. Sheldon, authorizing a drawbridge over the Al abama river near Selma, and above Montgom ery, was taken from-the Speaker’s table and passed. It goes to the President. The bill authorizing an Assistant U. S. Treas urer at Baltimore, passed. The Tax bill was resumed. Mr. Schenck offered a tariff’ amendment, stating that he did it on his own responsibility, and not by order of the Ways and Means Com mittee. He stated that the total redaction of revenue by the proposed amendment would be over $20,000,000. He estimates the reduction of internal revenue at $40,000,000. Shenck moved the previous question - . The House re fused to seoond the previous question by a vote of 90 to 83. Schenck then withdrew his Tariff amendment and moved the previous question or the Tax bill. Finally Schenck renewed its amendment and moved the previous question, which was ordered. It was agreed to vote *n Monday. Efforts were made to tack the Fund ing bill to the Tax bilL Fillibustering was re sumed, and the House finally adjourned. In the Senate the joint resolution to increase the compensation of Assistant Marshals of Cen sus was considered, without action. The Appropriation bill was considered, the debate being mainly npon the merits of the Quaker system of Indian treatment. From Washington.

Wallace, Collector for the Third District of South Caro lina, vice his brother, A. S. Wallace, recently seated in Congress.

Spotted Tail and his delegation had a confer ence to-day at the White Honse with the Presi dent and Secretary of War. Messrs. Boutwell and Hoar were present bnt took no part in the conference.

The Herald publishes eight columns of Bank’s report on Cuba.

These hostile forces have not forgotten the objects for which they were organized.— From the declaration of Cuban Independence at Yara to this hour, there has not been a week—scarcely a day—which ha3 not been marked in the calendar of war by fierce and bloody contests. . No revolution presents a more constant and determined struggle.

Richmond, June 4.—The Grand Jury indicted Geo. Chahoon, Ex-Mayor, for forgery, and Johnson H. Sands and Richard S. Sanxay, two ex-Confederate officers, for conspiracy to de fiant the State out of $7000, the amount due tho .State from the estate of'Jacob Hornstein, who died intestate. It is charged that all these parlies, after the war, appropriated the estate to their own use. Mr. Chahoon was arrested this afternoon and bailed in $10,000. The other parties aienot in custody. Officers have been sent for them. In a suit originating in the United States Cir cuit Court, Chief Justice Chase decides os fol lows, : The government of Virginia, organized at Wheeling, has been recognized by the United States as the rightfnl -government of that State. After all organized resistance to the national authority had ceased in Virginia, that govern ment was established in the undisputed ex ercise of its authority at Richmond. That gov ; eminent was thns established during the year 1865. When the insurgent government of Vir ginia was disposed, by the superior force of the United States, the civil authorities did not necessarily cease at onco to exist. 'They con tinued in being defacto, charged with the duty of maintaining order until supsreeded by the regnlar government. Thus the Common Coun cil of Harrisonburg, though elected under the insurgent government remained charged with the government of the town, notwithstanding the temporary occupation of the place by the United States forces. It might have been superseded, for the goverment of the United States was not bound to recognize any authority which originated with the ritual government; but it was not superseded. The Mayor and Common Council, therefore, exercising their authority, derived from thek eleotion and not by virtue of a "military order, have no right to remove a suit from the State to a Federal Court, when that suit has been brought for an alleged false imprisonment and malicious prosecution thoreon charged to have been committed Djr thorn, in the discharge of their monioipal functions. The case was m rnandod to the State Court. Philadelphia, June 4.—The Presbyterian Assembly finally adjourned to-day, without far ther important action. From North Carolina. . Wilmington, Jane 3.—The Republican Coun ty Convention, which closed its session here last evening, nominated a negro for Senator and three negroes for the Lower House of the Leg islature; also a negro candidate for Sheriff. Great dissatisfaction is expressed by many white tndsome colored Republicans, and a new Convention will probably be held. It is feared by some of the leaders of the party that the dis position shown by negroes to monopolize the offices, in counties in which they have majori ties, will have a disastrous effect on the election in interior counties which now. have white Re publican majorities. The partnership between the negroes and the Northern resident Repnbli- oms, known as "carpet-baggers,” seems com pletely dissolved. ' : ' . Foreign News.

Flpur 21s6d. - Com . duii . / , IN MEHORIAM, ' Reverend, Edward T. McGehee, M. D., a Maetvr Mason, and a member of Houston Lodge, No. 35, F. A.' H., died April 16th, A. D., 1870, A. L., 5870— ■■ m Aged 62 years. Our Lodge has never been called upon to mourn the death of a brother more beloved than he, whose name heads this noticed .. : At heart brother McGehee loved the mystic Charms of Free Masonry. His intercourse with his 1 brethren in all tho relations of life, and bus Com- I munion with them around our sacred altars, illoa-u trated his high appreciation of and devotion to OUT.} time-honored and indissoluble Fraternal Union; his outer life exhibited his high estimate of our Moral Temple and added lustre to its wisdom, strength and beauty. Over and around all of which he threw the higher charms and purer light of a holy life consecrated and devoted to the cause of Him in whomwopnt our trust. Honored and revered by us while living, and now “he being dead, yet Bpeak- etli” lot us while we record his virtues and would embalm and cherish in our hearts his.memory—re- s membering that we too must die—copy his bright example, and like him when our time to depart shall come, we also may’ beiready to enter the Su- 7 preme Grand Lodge Eternal in the’Heavens. /.t Besolved, That’ While we deeply deplore the • death of brother McGehee, wo believe that onr loss is bis eternal gain, and would bow submissively to to the will of Him who hath taken him from ns— and hereby tendering to his bereaved family our wannest and tenderest sympathies,"would commend them for comfort and support to tho God of the widow and friend of the fatherless. ' *. - Resolved, That a blank page in our Lodge book - be inscribed to hia memory. That the furniture And : jewels of the Lodge be draped in mourning, and that we woar the usual badge for thirty days, and also that a copy of this tribute be transmitted to (the Telegraph and Messenger for publication; and also under seal of the Lodge to tbe family of tbe deceased.

He was sick two days only. Thus was a lovely and most beautiful babe removed from earth, and the fond hopes of idol izing parents suddenly blasted; but this sad be reavement is inflicted by One who “does all things well.” Let mourning parents then be oomfoxted with the thought of a child in Heaven, knowing that though he cannot return to them, they can go to him.
