'onfreipHlon" The IMvUloi. of Ihe Dlwow Am ?- ?Mmil Ill?lio|>- Rrnnlon with ( hnn li In Ihe l ?,,wl WnlcwCom^pondene* of th.? Klchmond Dispatch. Wo have already published in the Dispatch t!>?* proceeding* tlio Protestant Episcopal Council at Alexandria an furnished '?v our reporter; yet the following communication from a prominent member of the Council will be read with interest : The Protestant Episcopal Council of Virginia closed it** labors on Saturday la*?t. As the people of the State and of the south generally have been anticipating its session with considerable interest, a sketch of it s deliberations and action may be relished by the readers of this paper. It was known that several questions ol great ini|M?rtanee were inevitably to be met questions in the solution of which great care and w isdom would be required. Apart from tlieir religious and ecclesiastical hearing, the feelings of the clergy and laity in Virginia could not he otherwise than deeply engaged by the mm ial ami political aspect ot these subjects. The tirst of these questions, an<l the one perhaps ol least difficulty, was the course to be pursued towards THE COLORED CONGREGATIONS. It is known that from about 1860 until the collapse of the Confederacy, the Episcopal Church was very energetic in the endeavor to establish African churches. The fact of emancipation so changed the relations of the races that many of those who were willing to give and to work for the slaves appeared to lose all interest in the "freedmen." Still, many of the emancipated clung to the Episcopal Church, and were anxious to share all its advantages. According to the theory of this church, there would hardly be separate organizations for whites and blacks as in other churches, and so the question must be in course of time- how shall the colored churches be represented? At present the question is not a practical one, nor will it be for a long time, as years will probably pass by ere the colored churches can comply with all the requirements of the canons of Virginia. Still, in order to encourage the colored churches, it has felt that some special provision ought to be made for them in the way of representation. To meet this necessity, the Council appointed a standing committee of clergy and laity, who shall be charged with the duty of attending to the interests of these congregations and of representing them in the Council. Another question, somewhat anticipated before the Council met, but lost sight ol in the debates on other matters, was 'III K DIVISION OF Til K IUOCESK. When the proposition was broached, the Council was evidently a little startled. It was a resolution of inquiry as to the expediency of the measure, and was passed without debate, mm, con, Next day, however, after the resolution had been slept upon, some of the older clergy seemed to think they had been rather surprised into acquiescence, and, in order to bring the matter up again, a resolution was introduced the following morning to enlarge the committee appointed under the former resolution, and to extend the scope of the inquiry so as to consider the expediency of having in Aftsistant lfishop in lieu ot dividing the Uiocese. The author ot the latter resolution, Dr. Pendleton, took occasion to protest against any course upon ! our part as churchmen that might appear to countenance the wrong perpetrated upon , our State by the erection of the western portion into a separate sovereignty. The Council generally agreed with him that, however desirable a partition of the Diocese might be under ordinary circumstances, it would not do to favor such an j idea at present. The great question, however, to be de- ; cided was that of diocesan independence, or reunion with the Church in the United States. This matter was introduced at an early stage of the proceedings in a brief resolution by Mr. Cassius F. Lee, of Christ Church, Alexandria. The floor was immediately taken by the Rev. John Grammar, of Halifax, the patriarch of the Council, lie spoke of the many years he had attended these annual gatherings, and of his presence now, where he had come, against the pressure of great age and heavy infirmitv, to aid his brethren in settling this important question* At his suggestion the deliberations on this point were begun with silent prayer by the Council. The address of Mr. Grammar was unreservedly in favor of reunion, and evidently made a great impression. (hie suggestion, however, of this venerable man found no favor at all. lie seemed to think our failure to achieve independence was a verdict of Heaven against its. Here he was met with earnest protest. " Principles," said Dr. Andrews, 4* can never be settled by force. Nothing can be decided by gunpowder except that two pounds are stronger than one. God may permit what he does not approve, and whereas now he has chosen to permit, let us submit," I 'poll the ground of plain necessity, the leading minds in the Council felt coilstrained to adopt this view. Still there was a determined struggle long maintained by a few in the effort to postpone action for a year ; and of those who gave in a reluctant assent to reunion, many took occasion to declare with Dr. (late General) Pendleton, a persuasion of the justice of our principles as strong and as clear at this time as when those principles were first affirmed. The vote was a large one; and by a majority of more than three to one the resolution was adopted. After the transaction of other and less interesting business, the Council adjourned. The session was an earnest, but an entirely harmonious one. All seemed anxious to do right ? to meet as they ought the heavy responsibility of their position. No doubt, the Church in Virginia will acquiesce in this deed of the Council as the best that could be done under the circumstances.

FrxEK.iL ? Federal Officers.' ? The remains of Lieutenant William Henry Hay. wood reached this city on Friday night. They were met at the depot by a large number of his former friends and comrades, and escorted thence to the residence of his mother. We were pleased to sec that a number of Fwleral officers uncovered their heads as the funeral cortege passed through our i street* on Saturday afternoon. The incident was most honorable to them, and we record it with gratification. ? Raleigh Stnti- ; ne(, 'list. I Kelikf for the Suffering. ?

The Affray ox Ci*at Street? Ex ami. nation* of W. S. I'll iLLirs.? Messrs. Moss and Phillips, the parties to the nf! ray which occurred on Clay street, between !? irst and Second, on the 14th instant, were both so much weakened that they were unable for some days to be brought tip for examination; but on yesterday the ease of Mr. W. S. Phillips, "charged with feloniously assaulting Mr. J.<?. Moss, was heard at the Mayor's Court before Mayor Mayo. Mr. Marmaduke Johnson appeared as counsel tor the accused. Mr. Mosely was the first witness called for the Commonwealth. He stated that he saw from his window Moss and Phillips talking together, but could not hear what was said. Suddenly Phillips struck at Moss, who caught the stick, wrested it : away, ami struck Phillips with it seven or eight limes. Phillips was knocked down, 1 I and Moss then threw the stick away and i walked oil'. Witness went and spoke to| Moss, who, however, did not know that he had been stabbed until at least a quarter of an hour after the fight had ended. He heard Phillips say to Moss, "Did yon call me a scoundrel and Moss replied that "he (Phillips) had treated his family as | a scoundrel would, and he did call him so. He saw that when Phillips was down he; had a knife in his hand, but <li<l not know j when the knife was drawn* VrosHrnVj-niahifl l></ -I//'. >/n/irtwii. Saw Moss kiHK-k Phillips down, and did not see the knife until after he was knocked down. Sol. Lovingstcin then testified that he j heard a squealing in the street, and saw I'hillii IS lying on the ground. 1 1 ?? heard ! Moss say "that if Phillips came again into j his premises, and insulted his wife and family, he would show him what he would I do or have done with him. Mrs. Phillips having been called for the j prosecution, Mr. Johnson said that a> counsel for the defence he would not object | to her testimony being taken. He said that in the ease ot the Commonwealth vs. Lann, tried in the Circuit Court of Princess Anne, Judge Baker had ruled that the i evid<*nce of the wife might be taken in ! a case in which her husband was con- i ceriied; and this was his authority. The Mayor said that he had great respect for the learning and opinion of Judge ; Baker, but lie could not take his ruling a> authority for acting contrary to what : he considered to be the clear meaning of the law. lie therefore could not permit the evidence of Mrs. Phillips to be taken, i The witnesses for the defence were then I called. i Policeman Gilman stated that Moss had told him that he had called Phillips aseottnI drel and coward *, that he, Philips, then struck him, when he caught at the stick and was stabbed. Dr. F. W. Hancock stated that he attended Mr. Phillips professionally, lie found | him soon after the light in a very weak and exhausted condition. There were three wounds on the head, one of them cutting down to the bone and severing a branch of the anterior temporal artery. Mr. Phillips's i arms were badly bruised, and one of the I blows had scaled" the bone without causing : positive fracture. He considered Mr. Phillips's injuries very severe, and that for ( some days he was in a critical condition. ' In consequence of the wound on his head, ! had forbidden Mr. Phillips to go out in the ! sun. He had known Mr. Phillips for twelve : ! or fifteen years, and had always considered | him to be an upright man and a peaceable j and quiet citizen. Dr. G. Cabell was called, and confirmed the statement of Dr. Hancock in relation to the extent and nature of the injuries sustained by Mr. Phillips. This was the conclusion of the evidence i for the defence, and the Mayor said that ( the evidence had developed the fact that j both Moss ? tml Phillips had been guilty ?>l a grave olfencc. A man had a right to defend himself when attacked, but only so far as was necessary to relieve himself from personal risk, and in this case it would seem that the knife was not drawn by Phillips ! until he had been knocked down by Moss. J He would continue the case until Thurs- 1 day, and require bail from Phillips and j Moss in the sum of one thousand dollars each.

Tub Great Cow Cask? IIisbaxd axi? Wikk. ? Some time ago a Mrs. Sweeney was charged by her husband with .stealing I a cow, which she claimed as her private property, and the ease was dismissed. On yesterday, however, Mrs. Sweeney charged her husband with stealing the same cow, j and the parties were heard before the Mayor. His Honor did not seem at all in- ? elined to listen to any long train of evidence, Init told Mrs. Sweeney that a hus- 1 hand could not steal from his wife, as all that belonged to her belonged to him. Of; course, under the laws of Virginia, all personal property owned by the wife is, in the ' absence of a marriage settlement, abso- f Intel) under the control of the husband; but to Mrs. Sweeney it was but little consolation to know that her husband could say, " what 's yours is mine, and what 's mine 's my own." Assailt and Battery. ? F. Pizagno, who 1 keeps a grocery store on Franklin street, between Seventeenth and Eighteenth streets, was charged with assaulting and beating J. Louis, and arrested on yesterday. Louis, who is an eccentric character, has been in the habit of calling Pizagno a " rebel deserter" and " Yankee spy," and i oil yesterday he went into his store and abused him violently. Pizagno is said to | have struck Louis, and the case will be j tried before the Mayor this morning. Beating a Negro. ? A man named Barney St. Clair, who lives on the canal, was examined on yesterday before Justice Wade on the charge of beating a negro named Donnigo. It appears that St. Clair had thrown some water into a lime barrel, to which Donnigo objected. St. Clair then struck him with a heavy bar of iron, knocked liim down, and continued to beat him until he was insensible. The prisoner was sent on to the grand jury for trial. Theft.? A negro boy named Dennis Willis was arrested on yesterday, on Main street, with a, tobacco " follower " in his possession, which is supposed to ltave been stolen from the lot where Frasier's tobacco factory formerly stood.

Circtit Couirr. ? In the Circuit Court ' yesterday the argument for the plaintiff in the case of Gilmer vs. Bigger wad coneluded by J. Ilarmor Gilmer, Sr. The Judge will render a decision in the cane in a day or so. JcnuK Lyonh's CoritT ? Mobb Cahrs fob tub Pbnitkmti art. ? Judge Lyons held his court at the usual hour yesterday morning, Michael Shanan was arraigned on an indictment for stealing a horse from S. | Schwartz. Tlic jury found him guilty, and sentenced him to the penitentiary for five years. Chapman Johnston, negro, was found guiltv of stealing a lot of clothing from Newfleld, and sentenced to the peniientiarv for five years. Lishurn Harris was sentenced to the penitentiary for three years for stealing a bull. ? f Charles M. Fairbanks was arraigned on an indictment for forging a check for the sum of sixty-eight dollars in the name of Noah Walker & Co. lie was found guilty and sentenced to the penitentiary for seven years. Fairbanks is a young man of very good appearance ; dresses with a great deal of taste, and might really he called h indsome. IU? manifested a groat deal of in- j difference during his trial, and smiled when the handcuffs were being put upon him before convoying him to the penitentiary. . , , ? The following eases will he tried before this court to-day : Commonwealth vs. Charles Wade, Henry Carter, Robert Christian, and Robert Cooper, each upon an indictment for felony. . ? Mayor's Coirt, Tiksoav. ? Madison Archer, a negro, was charged with using abusive language to a lady in the market, and also with abusing t lie lady who nr-_; rested him. lie was fined five dollars, and required to give security in the sum of two hundred dollars for his future good behavior. I Charles Wilson, a respectably-dressed white man, was charged with being uurulj in the Bank restaurant, on Mayo street, t and with assaulting the proprietress. Mrs. (Mild, the proprietress, said that the accused behaved in a very turbulent manner, refused to leave the saloonjUiid finally slapped her face. Mr. Wilson stated that the charge was the result of jealousy, and that lie was a peaceful and law-abiding citizen ; but the Mayor informed him that he had nothing ( to do with petty jealousies, and must re- ! quire bail in the sum ol three hundred dollars Ibr his future good behavior. Tub 4,Grkkx I si. asi>" ? A Cask in CorBT. ? In the Mayor's Court on yesterday, Cornelius Murphy charged Maggie I hinnigan with stealing his purse, containing twentv-five dollars or more. He said that he was the driver of a soda-wagon, and went on Monday t ? ? a house on the corner of Eighteenth and Grace streets to sell some "pop." As he was coming out, lie saw Maggie, whom he accosted affectionately as 44 (ireen Island," -he being a fresh importation from the "Emerald Isle.'' J Maggie, he said, took the joke in good part, but thrust her hand in his pocket, took his purse, and went oil" with it. Later in the day he recovered the purse and believed that at least five dollars had been ah- j stracted from it. Policeman Kendrick testiticd that on Monday lie heard a shrieking and howling 011 Seventeenth street, and when he went down, found that Murphy had Maggie by the throat and was abusing her violently. Some bystanders said that the irate Irishman had thrown the girl j down and kicked her, and he therefore arrested him and took him to the cage. To this Murphy rejoined that 14 friend" policeman caught him by the back of the neck in an outrageous manner. To which j the officer replied that Murphy threatened to kill Maggie. This latter was then permitted to speak, and she said that Murphy had taken a ring from her and had refused to return it, and she had only taken the purse for fun, and returned it in a few minutes to Daniel Murphy, who kept the shop where the purse was taken. Daniel Murphy was called, was admonished by j Maggie 44 to tell the truth, Danny," and j corroborated her statement in every particular. The Mayor ordered the girl to be discharged, and reprimanded Cornelius Murphy for his violent conduct, "(ireen Island" left the court-room in joyful haste, and Murphy remained tor a while to ruminate disconsolately upon the uncertainty j of the law.

' The last general order published by General K. E. Lee, dated Appomattox Courthouse, April 10, 1865, which pays so eloquent a tribute to the constancy and patient endurance of the army then about to be surrendered, and which is in itself so striking an evidence of the pure and lofty spirit of the noble man who addressed it to his troops, has been handsomely j lithographed, and is for sale by Messrs. | A. H. Christian & Co., Main street, it is decorated with a vignette of General Lee, around which are draped the drooping colors of the surrendered Army of Northern 1 Virginia. _ The Sons of Temperance Growing.? Since the quarterly meeting in April, ' three divisions have been recognized by the | Grand Division of Virginia, and taken under its care. It is hoped that many of the old " Sons " in various parts of the State whose divisions went down during the war are waking up, and will soon reorganize and go to work. Thanks. ? To the National Express for late papers. Also, to Mr. R. H. Fox, of the I National Express.

Anorsn Richmond.? The tramp of war has ceased, the great Rim* have been removed, ditches, embankment*, , and traces of withering desolation, are all that remain to remind us of the days when the words " Around Richmond " breathed the very breath of battle and made men treiiib e at tlie vibrations of the scale, 4 big with the fate of Cato and of Rome," that hung upon this beam. Here and there, us we wander around the " lines," wo find a few deserted cabins. At a distance we for a moment fancy we see the grey-jacketed lit rots moving alwut them, orderlies PaMln8a"(l repassing, the smoke of the camp-fires as-ccnding-the motives of the Confederacy, are reproduced, and the days that are past forever are returned? but it was onl) a dream. That distant sound was not a gun at Drewry's? all is peace and s'lence. Grim-visaged war hath smoothed his wrinkled front, albeit he has left man) a deep furrow and ineffaceable scar upon those who survive the carnage and the wot of the terrible strife. f _on But we took up our pen to write ofgre<n fields and quiet homes. The country around Richmond is not what it was before t it war nor is it what it was during that da) ot trial. Just now, he who travols out on any of the roads leading from the cit) will find much to gladden his eye and cheer hr heart. Gardens, wheat fields, and orchards smile with promises of a gathering by .andbv which must considerably increase the wealth and comfort of the people. The observer will discover more good horses than he expected to find, and more milch rows quietly grazing about, whose distended bags awaken pleasing emotions in every one that has the milk of humankind ness in his heart. . If he has the good fortune to be a visitor among the people in these handwmc houses? of which so many are visible far and near? lie will find hospitality, mtcllitrence, and refinement in many of them, which will remind him of the best days and best st vie of old Virginia life. On Sabbath many of the people come in to the city to church, and their modes o transportation indicate improvement. .Not a few go to the places of worship near the citv, of which there are some where regular* services are held. On some of the roads, we are sorry to say, there arc for miles no meeting-houses. Several were destroyed during the war; and the consequence is that there are a great number ot persons in the neighborhood ot the eit) who do not attend church on Sunday, and have no place to which they can send their children l. ? Sabbath school. It p to be hoped that some of the plans w Inch have been talked of to meet this want will ,, ut iu execution. There are a number of ministers in Richmond-- at least out dozen ? who, being employed as editor. , &e? during the week, and having no u; - lar charge, would gladly go out ami preach i? the neighborhood on Sunday it there were churches built for them, or even arbors erected, or private houses opened, iu the porches and yards of which the people might be gathered. It is a pity that in sight of so many steeples there should b< such an amount of religious destitution as is well know n to exist around Richmond. The court of Henrico affords a good opportunity to see many of the gentlemen of the neighboring parts ot the count). As soon as one enters the gate of the yard? a very substantial new one, by the wa\,tar iu advance of the new court-house-hc sees the traces of country life and nianuers, the knot and groups talking, the sheriff, with his saddle-bags, etc., as hereposes under the shadow of the trees that have held their ground there these man) years, and takes hold of the hand of a country gentleman with the peculiar cordial shake that does not belong to the town, he almost forgets that he is in the heart of a great city, and begins to feel like he does in Louisa, Orange, or at the count}, seat of Fluvanna, on a court-day w lien tne horses are neighing, the jackasses are braying, the sheriffs are shouting, the politicians are talking, the old women are selling ginger-cakes, and wagons, carts, mules, saddles, bridles, trace-chains, ploughs, wheat-fans, brooms, shucks, nuts, and furniture, old and new, are going, going, going, gone, if you are done, once, twice, three! ! ! times ? where men are collected for every conceivable purpose, and things go on in multitudinous variety, which can only be described under the general and comprehensive clause, com(Id y, t t4 ? ilcnrico, alas ! is too near the city to produce the primitive institution in its freshness, but there is far more ol the rustic odor about it than one would expect to find on Main street, between Twentyfirst and Twenty-second streets, where, just outside those walls, the flavor ot the city is strong and hot on the du^ty pavements. A Vkxkkabi.e Pif.ce of Fibxitibe.? Messrs. Stvll & Davis, of this eitv, have received an antique chair, accompanied by the following letter : "Messrs. Stvll & Davis, -I shipped thus day the above chair. [It was described at top of the letter.) You will oblige mc to forwar, l it to the White House, on the amonkey river, to Oeneral It. E. T.ee, or to some of his family there. "Respectfully yours, "John T. Watkixs, "No. 47 South street. "Baltimore, May 19, I860." The chair, as we gather from the letter, belonged to George Washington 1 arkc Custis. It fell to him among the heirlooms ot this family. He was the grandson o Mrs. General Washington, and the adopted son of the General. He was the father of Mrs. General Lee, and the proprietor of the famous Arlington estate. This chair was rescued from the flames when the hitt House was burned by the Federal arm) during the war. It was bought from a sutler of the United States army, from whom the mountebank Barnum tried in vain to purchase it. Is was exhibited at the Baltimore Southern Fair, and ten cents was the charge for sitting in it. In this way a large sum was received. It is ol,c hundred and four years old, and is supposed to have bceu General Washington h office chair. ?.??*? i The White House, for which it is destined, and whence it was taken, is now only a name for the estate. 1 he house is gone. It occupied the site ot the house in which the queenly widow Custis lived, and where the marriage between her and General Washington took place, "became the property ot Mr. G. w . I . l?uau lis as heir of General Washington, and was by him left to General Lee or his family. "The old chair, the venerated reljc of a better and a happier age, is regarded by all who behold it with the deepest interest. It may be seen for a time at the store of Messrs. Styll & Davis, Franklin street, ?*- low Wall. Honor to tub Dkao?

Memorial Association, in whu h i ? gested that a public meeting be called the purjmsc of organizing those young me who would be willing to work in remounting and restoring the soldiers' graves in such a way as to secure the greatest benefit from their generous aid. The suggestion and otter have been accepted with gratitude by the Association, and the pub- ! lie meeting referred to will be held at the Centenary Church at 8 o'clock to-morrow , It is unnecessary to ask that there may : be a full meeting, for those who will not be induced to attend by a simple announcement could not be persua ieji o' conunced by the most eloquent appeal that was ever , penned by man ; but we do hope that those , who arc present will be prepared to work steadily and upon a systematic and orderly plan. If our young men will take the work in hand, we shall hcarnomore or levelling the graves of our dear soldiers on account of the expense of maintaining them separately ; each one who joins in the labor will have the consolation of knowing that he has saved the l?t resting-place o at least one brother-in-arms trom neglect or oblivion. . . Some of the young men can work at om time and some at another, and all tne volunteers should 1 h* organized into detachments, with defined hours of labor, so that they may know what they ha\c to do, and when to do it ; and they may all be well assured that there is no better passport to the confidence and affection ot a Virginia girl or matron than the practical demonstration of a feeling of love and gratitude for those gallant men who were enrolled in the southern armies and died for tite southern cause.
