Richmond jglgpatrh. WEDNESDAY JUNE 27, \m. LETTER FROMW WASHINGTON Correspondence of the Richmond Dlnpntch THE PASSAGE OF THE TAX BILL ` ISM AND THK MEXICAN RKPt BL1C, ETC. Washixotox, June 2j. The Senate passed the tax bill at a late hour to-day, and it will now go to a committee of conference of the two Houses, who will very speedily arrange all differences and have it in readiness for the President's signature. The House will not agree to the two percent tax on cotton, and there will have to be a compromise. in this respect Thad. Stevens will assert his power. He as well as the majority of the members of the House, are entirely opposed to the tax being less than five percent, as was originally proposed; but the recommendations of the Senate Finance Committee must have the effect of reducing the higher tax. The general impression from the first has been that three per cent, will be the standard. The Senate lost no time whatever in getting the measure through that body. The calling of a National Union Conven- i tion by authority of the Executive i Committee of the Club whic'? supports i President Johnson's Administ Jon is of c< ur>e" distasteful to the radi< '-dement. ; As yon ar?> already aware, > of the ' .signers to the call are Sena . Doolittle and Cowan, who have beci ' uwavering supinators of the Administrr ;i*?n policy as | op}ntsed to the Destructive.*- Hut not only l fue the few Conservative Republicans in j this city io favor of such convention, to i meet in Philadelphia in August next, but ' others identified with the Democratic party, among whom are Senators Hen- j d rick*, of Indiana, and Nesmith, of Oregon. The object, in a word, is to enable all sections of the country to meet upon a broad national platform, and to inaugurate such measures as will restore all the States to their full rights and privileges under a common Constitution. The two topics, Fenianism and Mexican Republicanism, will hardly stand a show ; of much magnitude in Congress before the adjournment, owing to the brieftime which oil concede will now elapse before that j event. Stevens will probably endeavor to rush his views on the Monroe Doctrine to some conclusion, with what effect can better be determined when the Committee on To- 1 reign A flairs make their report, if they do j so. Feuianism, beyond inspiring a few speeches which have been promised, but j Lot yet forthcoming, TFill prove of little consideration. The weather to-day has been intensely j warm, and tin* summer is inaugurated in good earnest. As Congress can have but little over four months' vacation, the members are becoming very anxious to get away to the cooler shades of the North, i and about the 20th of July Washington will probably have relapsed into the summer dullness of ante-war times.

Mr. UaldwIu'H Statement Corroho* rated. Richmond, June 26, 1SG6. To the Editors of the Dispatch : After reading the litters ol the two distinguished Virginians, Botts and Baldwin, in relation to a conversation each of them had with the late President Lincoln, it has occurred to me that they are both correct in regard to their conversations with President Lincoln, and that he made a mistake in the person to whom he pledged himself to withdraw the troops from Fort Sumter. In March, 1M!1, while in the city ol Washington, I received a letter Irom the late Archbishop of Baltimore, enclosing one for Senator Douglas, from the Bishop of Chicago. 1 called on Senator Douglas at his residence, in company with a distinguished clergyman of Washington, and learned that he was confined to his chamber by sickness. J did not see him, but the eler- 1 f\ ruan went to his chamber and delivered tue letter to him. 1 was subsequently informed by the clergyman that Senator Douglas had been with President Lincoln until a late hour the night before, and that the war wonld be a vetted, because President Lincoln had promised him (Senator Douglas) to withdraw the troops irom both Pickens and Suiuter. About this time the Governors of the northern and western States arrived in Washington and prevented the President from ordering the evacuation of. Sumter. When Senator Douglas heard t't the change the President's view had undergoue, he called to see him, and i charged him with loving his party more thin he did his country. These facts made i mi impression upon my mind, because 1 ! wu-. then an officer in the United States Davy, and was greatly interested in the success of Senator Douglas's noble v Hurts to prevent civil war. Yours, E. B. Boctwell. i Hi. Jthn'M Day iu Danville. Daxvillk, June 2(1, 1K6G. To the ?>litors of the Richmond Dispatch : Yesterday the Danville Masons celebrated the anniversary of St. John the j Baptist. Everything passed otr most delightfully. The day was one of unclouded brightness, and most unmitigated hotness. Many of the craft were deterred by the ; beat and dust from joining the procession, but enough of them did assemble to swell the rauks to one hundred and tit ty. Among them was a gay and glittering array ol Knights Templar, splendidly mounted, ^viiose presence added very much to the interest of the occasion. Then followed on loot the Master Masons and Koyal Arch Masons; the speaker, lion. C. W. Bell, late ol Missouri ; and last, yet most vene-rable-looking of all, the Worshipful Master, Rev. G. W. Dame. The procession j moved to the Presbyterian Church, where, ?fter a prayer by the pastor, and some very ? fine singing by the choir, the audience , were regaled with a rich intellectual treat J by Colonel Bell. His speech was chaste j and eloquent throughout, and was well received by the audience, lie | spoke of the antiquity of the Order of Masonry, and the very great benefits 1 it confers, and the |>eeuliar beauty ami ! force with whieh it enjoined some duties. Answering some of the objections to the institution, he closed his speech most hand- ; homely. The choir again discoursed some excellent music. The procession returned to the Lodge, and was called from labor to refreshment. At night a brilliaut assemblage of the beauty and worth of the town gathered in the Masonic saloon, where, after some as flue music as I have heard iu a long time the audience was addressed by Major w! T. Sutherlin, why, in a short, handsome address, urged upon the craft the imjiortance of rigidly practicing the tenets of the Order, whieh are brotherly love, relief, aud truth, lie was followed by our young townsman, S. G. Wooding, &q., who, in terms euually well chosen and eloquent, commended the Masons to the favorable notice of the audieuce. The speaking being Quished, the audience promptly responded to u call to supper. It was spread in the Lodge -room, which wan brilliantly illuminated. If you had seen the tables crowded with good things, such as ham, shoat, lamb, chickens, and all sorts of substantial*, and then ice-cream, frozen orangeade, cakes, candies, nuts, and as a little girl said, "all de good sing?," you yould have thought there was " life in the old land yet." A in id the great variety in the tare, the sweet music, the bright Joyous fee**, Aud tbs eyes flashing Jovc.dart# ill j

around, your correspondent was dnm- j founded. And tho lovely hnlf of creation, ! surrounded seemingly by clouds of lace, and muslin, and Rome other things of lighter make still, which my ignorance of store goods prevents my naming, kept mo quiet. They danced all night. Bii.lkt. I M. John'* l)i*jr In Ynweeyvllle, fc'orlli Carolina. Yawftvillk, N.C., June 23, 1M>6. To the Editors of the Richmond Dispatch : To-day has ken a groat day with tho Masons in Yanoeyville, N. C. The Lodge in celebrating the great anniversary ol the Older, which this year falls on Sunday, thought it more appropriate to anticipate the time bv one day. (treat preparations had been made by tho hospitable citizens of Yanceyville for a grand time, and they knew what they were about. Forming the procession, the , Masons marched to a beautiful grove to i the music of tho old Twenty-fourth North ! Carolina regimental hand, where they were most cordially greeted by the Hon. John i Kerr, w ho, in his peculiarly felicitous man. ) ner, gave all a hearty welcome. Then he j introduced tho orator of the day, Rev. J. F. 15. Mays, a Baptist minister from South , Carolina, who f?>r an hour interested his audience with a most telling speech. After the speech, the ladies and the Masons were invited to dinner ? and such a din- , ner? everything to tempt the appetite, and ; in the greatest abundance. 1 suppose not les* than six or eight hundred persons dined with the Lodge. The crowd was estimated at from fifteen \ to twenty-live hundred persons. The whole affair was a decided success ? and when j next they have a speaking or give a din- j ner, may 1 he there. B. j Norfolk, Va., June '23, 18GG. j To the Editor* of the Richmond Dispatch: Gentlemen, ? I enclose you a communi- J cation, taken from your paper, headed " Difficulty at New Kent Courthouse," in 1 which voii state that F. G. Wilson is a re- j lation to L. T. Bowden, of Williamsburg. As there were but two Lemuel Bowdens who have lived in Williamsburg for tho j last forty years, to my knowledge, one of whom was my brother Lemuel .1. Bowden, deceased, and Lemuel G. Bowden, his son, i iniorm you that your statement to any relationship or connection between F. G. ' Wilson, or any other Wilson, and my late I brother L. J. Bowden, or any of the Bowden family, is incorrect. 1 request you to make the proper correction, and to request the papers which have copied to do likewise. Very respectfully, &c., Henry M. Bowden. A Terrific ltiillroail Accident? Frightful Collision iu a Tmiuel? Three Train* on Fire. There occurred on the 10th June, in a tunnel twenty miles from London, called , the Wehvyn tunnel, on tho Great North- j ern railway, a most extraordinary collision ! of three trains at once. It occurred in the i night, at thirty minutes past 12 o'clock. Fortunately tliev were all freight trains. '? It seems that a train passing through the; tunnel was stopped by the breaking down of the engine, and no one going out of the j tunnel to warn approaching trains, the next one came upon the disabled train, not being aware of its presence. The rear brakesman, whose duty it was to have given warning, was found dead iu the rear car, ; and may have been killed or disabled by , the sudden stopping of the train he was j upon. Tiie tirst train that struck that i w hich w as broken down had a large amount of oil and other combustible material, j This was >oou followed by the meat train, j bringing the dead meat for the Newgate j market. That also was run up in heaps and smashed. The fire of the trains in the ! frightful collisions had communicated with the wreck, and soon getting to the oil and j other intlamtu tbles, caused a roaring and explosive tire ol noises like firearms. The , 'J'iuo. s describes the lire as roaring like the mighty cataract of a river. The result i was that nothing could be done until the whole nia^s was burned. Only two men were killed.

A XfH Asteroid DiNCovoretl at llamilIon ( uIIck*' Observatory. Hamilton College Observatory, ) Clinton, X. Y., June 21. j j Tolhe Editor of tin I'ticu Morning Herald : On the morning of the 15th instant a new stranger was discovered at this <>b. j servatory. The strong twilight ol' day. : break, however, and the then following j days of had weather, did not permit before last night to make sure of its motion and planetary nature. It is a new asteroid,! the eighty-seventh of the group, a little j brighter than stars of the twelfth magnitude, and was this morning in twenty j hours twenty-four minutes of right ascen- i sion, and seventeen degrees thirty minutes i of southern declination, with a slow mo- ] tion toward the west.

Papers should now be sent to Lewisburg. David B. Perker, special agent of the Post-Ottiee Department for Virginia, and . formerly in charge of the mail fur the Army of the Potomac, arrived in town yesterday. Mr. Perker has been in Virginia 1 since the tall of Richmond, engaged in reestablishing post-oiliees and mail routes, < and reports that his labors are almost com- j pleted, the main mail routes being again j open, and none but unimportant country ; towns uttsupplied with the former mail | facilities. He estimates that fully onehalf of the country ofliccs are filled by j postmistresses, owing to the inability of ; males to tuke the prescribed oath ol' office. ? Xutioml Republican, 26th. Bistior Magill in Pennsylvania. ? At Paschal ville, near Darby, the corner-stone of a new church was laid on Sunday last. After the laying, Right Rev. Dr. Magill, j Bishop of Richmond, Va., addressed the j people. He said that through religion men j attained salvation. It had been asserted ? that religion ought to be purely spiritual, God himself being a spirit. But man's na- ; ture could not be reached in this manner. Even his most abstract thoughts require j matter for their manifestation. God himself, when lie came to save mankind, did not appear as a spirit, but took a substance i and form like to ours. He appointed teachers and founded his Church. The Clujrch, like her Divine Si>ouhc, uses material forms, as in the administration of the Sacraments, and builds temples for her worshippers. | c ^ edifice would be more glorious than , Solomon s Temple in all its magnificence, ' inasmuch as upon its altar would be offered ? up an infinitely higher and holier sacrifice, j In concluding, I)r. Magill ?aid that when ! 1 ,n '"K y??th, fllty years ago, he rambled | over these very fields, Philadelphia had i but four Catholic churches ; now she had thirty-four, and others are to be built. In I this respect, what was said of Philadelphia could be said of every other city in the < l/'niou. ; At the election held in Norfolk ou Monj day, lion. J? hn Goode, Jr., was chosen a delegate to the General Assembly, and Mr. J, R, Ludlow, Mayor.
