The following ministers without charges were also present: Rev. S. Tustin, D. D., Rev. 0. B. McKee, and Rey. W. B. Evans. Yesterday morning the Presbytery reassem~- bled, and sfter devotional exercises, statistical reports were read, and show nearly all of the churches within the bounds of this Presby- tery to be enjoying an unusual degree of pros- rity. MThe following paper was adopted after « long discussion, which was participated in by nearly every member = Whereas the Presbytery of the Potomac forms & part of the Presbyterian Church which will be represented by the General Assembly about to meet at St. Louis, Mo. and being desirous that the measures of that assembly should pro- mote the purity and peace of our beloved Zion, therefore Resolved, That it is the judgment of this Presbytery that the purity and peace of our church will be best preserved by discouraging all attempts to reverse the past actions of the Assembly as respects the General Goverament and the church tm the Southern States, and that the commissioners from this Presbytery be in- structed to vote against all measures tending ¥ passed. tage ape sens of small arms and 1,000 rounds Ammunition to the people ef Dako- tah, to enable them to repel Jndian invasion. Mr. Wilson cailed up — resolution re- specting bounties to soldiers. It pro- vides that the omission in the muster roils of the words “free on or before April 19, 1861” shall not gene any colored soldiers of the bounty to which he is entitled, and which is now or may, hereafter, be withheld by reason of such omission: Provided, That nothing herein contained shall be so construed as to en- title soldiers, who were not free at the date herein specified, to recerye bounty. Mr. Wilson offered an amendment to the ef- fect that in determining who is the wife of a colored soldier, evidence of cohabitation in liy- ing together shall be taken as proof. The resolution &s amended was passed. The Veto Message was then taken up. Hovse.—Mr. Ashley, ot Ohio, introduced a bill to aid in the construction of a railroad and postal route from Great Salt Lake City w the Colorado river. Referred to the Committee on Public Lands. Mr. Schenck, of Ohio, from the Committee on Military Affairs, madea number of reports upon bills, resolutions and memorials (mostly of a private character), which had been re- ferred to that committee; and the Honse, in each case, took action according to the recem- mendation of the committee. The morning hour haying expired— Mr. Stevens, of Penna., from the Committee of Conference on the deficiency bill, reported the same with sundry amendments. The amendments recommended uz; the committee were agreed to, and the il, as amended, assed. 53 Mr. Wilson, of Towa, asked but failed to ob- tain unanimous consent to introduce a resolu- tion referring to the proclamation of President Johnson implicating Jefferson Davisand others in the murder of President Lincoln, and in- structing the Committee on the Judiciary to inquire whether there is any probable canse to believe that the persons thus implicated are guilty, and if so, whether any legislation is necessary on the part of Congress to bring such persons to a speedy and impartial trial. The House then resumed the consideration of the Brooks-Dodge contested election case, and Mr. Shellabarger, of Ohio, addressed tue House. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES. WasIneros, April 5, 1866.

Quartermastor General Meigs is contem- plating the remevyal of the remains of Union soldiers from the battle fields of Bull Run, Kettle Run, and other battle fields or cemete- ries of the rebellion, along the line of the Orange and Alexandria Railroad, between Alexandria and the Rappahanneck Crossinz- The remains will be brought to Arlington Cemetery, and deposited in stone vaults, under ground, over which cairns or pyramids of stones may be erected. Ooi. M. I. Ludington, Chief Quartermaster, Department of Wash- ington, who was directed to make the neces- sury preliminary examination, has receiyeda report from an officer who has investigated the present condition of the Bull Ran battle field. Le states that many of the bodies there were not properly buried. In some cases alittle earth was thrown over a soldier where he fell. The action of the weather has removed this scanty covering of loose soil, and the bones of our patriot dead lay bleaching in the fields. Hogs have rooted out the remains of many, and in some cases, it is said, the bones of our brave soldiers have been sold to the bone grinders. Where the dead lay thick upon the field, large numbers were buried together in trenches, and in such cases the remains haye not been disturbed. But in removing them it will be hard to distinguish “Union” from “rebel” bodies. There they lay together, friend and foe; and a button or two, or a shred of blue or grey clothing, affords an uncertain index of the politics of the wearer, as necessity often compelled the Confederate soldier to don the Federal blue. It is also reported that the monuments erectee on the Bull Run battle-fields last summer have been mutilated and almost destroyed by evil-disposed persons in their vicinity. pi 4 foe is ie eels WHITE HOUSE. The rooms and halls of the White Honse were thronged at an early hour this morning with anxious seekers after a few minutes con. versation with the President. The saint Aud War had a lengthy inter- view with the Executive in the merning, and Gen. Rousseau in the afternoon. Alexander H. Stephens called early, and re- newed his request for an andience; after some time patiently waiting, and when about to re- ure, he was summoned, and shown to & pri- yate room, where he awaited the pleasure of the President, who soon after granted Mr. Ste- phens the desired conference. Among the celebrities who lingered near the President’s door, on business of importance to the country and themselyes, was the great showman, Dan Rice, who did not succeed, however, in gaining admission to the Presi: dential chamber. oo See THE PARIS EXPOSITION. Senator Sumner, from the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, reported to-day a bill providing for the representation of the United States at the Paris Exposition of 1967 as a sub- stitute for that passed by the Honse. It in- creases the appropriations to 150,900, and pro- Vides forthe appomtment of twenty unpaid commissioners, in addition to the ten who are to receive $1,000 each, itisrumored that when this bill comes be- fore the Senate some of the opponents of the operations of Napoleon in Mexico may im- prove the opportunity presented by the dis- cussion to ventilate their ideas. 208 YSTU QUESTION, Senator Johnson, of Md., ismaking a power- ful argument to-day in support of the Presi- dent's veto of the civil rights bill, and in reply to Senator Trumbull. As other Senators are to speak upon the question, a yote will hardly be reached before to-morrow. Senators Wright and Dixon were not present to-day, but it is understood that they are suf- ficiently recovered to assure their Presence whenever a yote is taken. to agitate these subjects anew, and, if intro- duced, to vote againstany repeal of past actions or additions of new measures on these subjects. Resolved further, That while this Presbytery 18 Op] to any further agitation of this sub- ject at present, and to the repeal of the action of the last Assembly, they do not intend to in- struct their delegates against voting for action explanatory of the action of the last Assembly if = shall seem to be expedient aad ie. This morning, the Presbytery met at nine o'clock. and was opened with devotional oxer- cises. They proceeded to the election of commis- sioners to the General Assembly, to meet ia St. Louis in May next. with the foliowing result:—Rey. Dr. P. D. Gurley, with Rey. W W. Campbell as alternate ministerial commis- sioners, and Edward Myers, of Georgetown, with John ©. Williamson as alternate, as lay commissiéner. Resolutions were orted approving the resolutions adopted at Baltimore Synod on the temperance eanse, and urging the ministers and laymen to work against the tide of intem- TELEGRAPHIO NEWS. i Rhode Election.

Tue Fish WHARY.—This morning, the wharf presented a more lively appearance than for several days past, and the rush of dealers to the dock upon the arrival of each boat indi. cates the beginning of a more prosperous sea- son than for several years past. . Hilleary Hutchins, who has ch: of the wharf, seems to bave anticipated a revival of the fish trade. and has made several “tf fine improvements for the accommodation of the patrons of the wharf. The old dilapidated booth has been re- moved, and one bas been erected that looks more oe wh te — fish- ermen are yet sen: very heavy loads to this wharf, and the sales are principally by bunches. This morning early herring were sold at $15.50 per 100 bunehes of ten herring each. Subsequently a boat arrived with sey. eral thousand herring,and the highest price offered at 1 p. m. was 13. Shad were scarce. FLOUR AND GRAIN MARKET.—This morn- ing the boat Charlies Arbinger arrived with Corn for B. , and Flour for Geo. Waters. The demand for ur is inactive, and holders are firm. The price list for Flour and Grain is unchanged, Transactions unimportant. Tue CanaL.—There is an anxious inguiry for the coal fleet, the delay keeping large num- bers of laboring men out of empleymens. They get but little faction from the | paparte from Cumberland. Some announci loading Fenian affairs receive some attention in Par- liament. The Attorney General for Ireland said that with respect to parties uuder arrest who came from America. that he was ready to give a favorable consideration to their appli- cation to leave Irelandand return from whence Mia the House of n the House of Commons, Mr. Watkins asked if any discussion had taken Place be- tween England and the American Govern- ment relative to Chate’s pee for anin- ternational for Engl d, France and America. Mr. G tone said he could find no — of any such question having been Taised. Mr. Gladstone announced that the Govern- ment intended to proceed with the reform bill regardless of the proposedamendments. Th would resist Grosyenor’s amendment, as it im- plied a direct want of confidence in the Goy- ernment. The House adjourned until the 9th of April, Easter Holiday. The stock of the Anglo-American Telegraph Company has all been subscribed, £600,000, and ro book closed at the rate of nineteen miles a y.
