[Prom our own Correspondent ] New York, June 22, 186.". , Rerun struct lon is now the principal topic among our people, and the subject excites considerable inter est, which is somewhat enhanced by the ar rival here of various Committees from the different States south ot k Masou and Dixon s line, claiming to represent the feelings and wishes of the people of their localities and sections. These Committees are all patient ly heard at the Capitol, and the evidence given and adduced is carefully weighed by the authorities, and conclusions arrived at, l»y which future guidance in appointments is governed. There is considerable diversity of opinion ns to what is the best course to pursue among these different Committees, and it would have been, perhaps, full as well for their interests and those whom they pretend to represent, had they' staid quietly at home ami gone to work in a more pi ac lical way than that adopted by them in this case. A Iliot between soldiers and citizjns took place ut Toiupkinsville, Staten Island, yesterday after toon. Two soldiers belonging to tlic C(>tb J«cff York, intoxicated, quarrelled with some fitizeua, wheira tight ensued, in wiiieli the soldltrs got the woist.

Copy of a letter from Earl llnssell to the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty : Foreign Office, June 2, 1865. My Lords—l have the honor to state to your lordships that since the date of my let ter of the 11th ult. intelligence has reached this country that the late President of the so called Confederate States has been captured by the military forces of the United States, and has been transported as a piisouer to Fort Monroe, and that the annies hitherto kept in the field by the Confederate States have tor the most part surrendered or dis persed. In this posture of affairs her Majesty’s gov ernment uie ot opinion that neutral nations cauuot but consider the war in North Ameri ca as at an end. In conformity with this opinion, her Ma jesty’s government recognize that peace has been restored within ttie whole territoiy of which the United States ot North America befoie the commencement of the civil war were in undisturbed possession. Asa necessary consequence of such rec ognition on the’part of her Majesty's gov ernment her Majesty's several authorities in ail ports, harbors and waters belonging to her Majesty, whether in the United King dom or beyond ttie Seas, must henceforth re fuse permission to any vessel ot war carry ing a Confederate flag to enter any such pbits, harbors and waters ; and must require any Confederate vessels of war which, at the time when these orders reach her Ma jesty's authorities in such ports, harbors and waters may have already entered therein on the faith of proclamations heretofore is sued by her Majesty, and which, having complied with the provisions of such proc lamations, may be actually within such ports, harbors and waters, forthwith to de part from them. But her Majesty's government consider that a dnej regard for national good faith and honor, required that her Majesty's authorities f hon’d be instructed, as regards any such Cm federate vessels so dcpaiting, that they should have the benefit of the prohibition heretofore enforced against pursuit of them within twenty-four hours by a cruiser ot the United Stales lying at the time within any stjch ports, harbors and waters, and that such prohibition should be then and for the Inst time maintained in their favor. if, however, the commander of any Con federate vessel of war which may be found in any port, harbor or waters of her Majesty’s dominions at Ihe time these new' orders are received by her Majesty's authorities, or may enter such po:t, harbor or waters within one mouth after these new orders are received, should wish to divest his vessel of her war like character: aud after disarming her, to remain without a Confederate Hag within British waters, her Majesty’s authorities may allow the cojpmauder of’such vessel to do so at his own risk in all respects, in which case he should be distinctly apprised that he is to expect uo further protection from her Majesty’s government, except such as lie may be entitled to iu tbe ordinary course of the administration of the law iu time of peace. The rule ns to twenty-four hours would, of course, not he applicable to ttie case of such vessel. I have addressed a similar letter to the Sec retaries of State for the Home, Colonial, I i dia ilnd War Offices, and also to the Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury, requtsiing them, as I do-your Lordships, to i>sue instructions iu conformity with ttie de cision ot her Majesty's government to the several British authorities, at home t.t abroad, who may lie called upon to act iu the matter. 1 am, etc., lti ssKLt. {N I .—A Jt si.nii:i.r l iter it is r. l.ircsscd t > tlwSun-ta ruw ol Station'Hu-Homi, Cdonl.d.

Promiurut Hebei* Applying for Pardon. The New York Herld of the 20th says: Tie following embraces all the prominent rebels who have applied for pardon: Alex ander 11. Stephens ts M. T. Hunter, Post master Reagan, \Y. W. Boyce, ot South Ca rolina; T. U. Gholson, of Virginia; Win. T. Avery, of Tennessee; R. H. Hill, of Georgia; Major Genetals J. B. Kershaw, William Ma ahon. George Pickett, aud Echols, and Brig. Generals J. B. Simms, Basil-W. Duke, H A Quarles, M. J. Wright, H. P. Jackson, Win.’ H. Peck, Wrn. C. Wickham, J. R. Ander son, W N. B. Pratt, W. L. Capett and R. 1.- Page This morning John P. Murray, a member of the rcliel Congress from Tennessee, pre sented himself at Colonel Ingraham's office and took the 09th of allegiance. Four teen questions, applicable to the exceptions enumerated in the President’s late amnesty proclamation, were propounded to Murray before the oath was administered, to all of which lie answered in the negative, except the fourteenth question, which is as follows: “Have you voluntarily participated iu the rebellion ? If so, is the estimated value of your property over twenty thousaud dollar.-?' To tills Murray replied that he had never paid taxes ou twenty thousand dollars, and did not know lioW much he was worth. Henry C. Burnett, a rel«?l Senator from Kentucky, appeared at Colonel Ingrahni’s office tills morning for the purpose of taking i the oath of allegiance As he was fonnerly : a member of the United States House of Representatives he could not answer favora bly the question “Did you leave a seat in the Congress of the United States to aid the re bellion ?” But the oath was administered, however, in order to afford him an opportu nity to make a special application under the amnesty proclamation to President Johnson to be rest<.led to his rignts ns a citizen of the United States. The Trial. The proceedings before the Military Commis sion has tor the last few days consisted chiefly of the pleas of the counsel for the defence. The papers tend on the 21st, iu the defence ot some of the couspimtois were of a very in teresting, and in some respects important character. Mr. Dostor, the counsel f. *r Payne, did not attempt to deuy liiut his client hud been proved guiil, but endeavored to palliate his ciiuie ou the ground that in attempting to assassinate Secretary Seward, Puyne wus merely doing what he believed to be right. A sketch of Payne s life was given, to show that lie was a pro-slavery fanatic, and that his endeavor to murder the man whom he looked iqum as one of the important expon ents of anti-slavery doctrines was a natural result of his Southern education. Mr. Dos ter did not, of course, approve of Payne’s act, but insisted that he was not a hired assassin, aud that the court should consider how far he was acting from honest conviction. Mr Doster also read a confession of Atze rot. Tuis prisoner confesses that he entered into Booth’s first conspiracy to capture Pres ident Lincoln; but says that when afterwards that became impracticable, and assassination was proposed, lie declined to have auything furtliei 1 to do with the plot. He states that Booth wanted him to murder Vice President President Johnson, but that he refused to do so. Another argument in defence of Mrs. Sur ratt was read by Mr Aiken, after which the court adjourned till Friday. Assemblage of the Virginia Legislature. The General Assembly of Virginia as sembled on the 19th. Tne New York Her ald correspondent says : The maiu object ot the session, as I have stated iu previous despatches, is to so en large the franchise as to embrace at least all who are not excepted by the President’s proclamation. While it js understood that the proposed legislation will meet with some opposition, still it is believed the Governor's wishes, width are affirmative on this subject, will be fully endorsed and carried out. It is believed that the Governor in bis mes sage will allude to the following subjects of interest He will recommend the right, of suffrage to be extended to the people of Vir ginia, by enact ment of the General Assembly, on the same terms and conditions as were ex tended to North Carolina and Mississippi, as embodied in the proclamation of the President of the United Stales to be accord ed to the people of those States in convening their conventions. He will recommend like wise a Just apd moderate tone of legislative policy to be pursued towards the conquered people, deprecating any course that will su perinduce unueceessary cause for bitter t'eel idg. lie will recommend that the rate of in terest be materially enlarged ; likewise that the tax of ten cents on a hundred dollars (#lOOl, which he regards ns insufficient, be materially increased. The term of office of the Legislature now convened expires in t«ni days tiom this date, Suicide of tke 3laa trim Fired ike First Gnu ou Sumter. E hnund Ruffiu, Sen., late of South Caro lina, committed suicide by shooting himself through tlie head with a musket, ut the house of hi- son, near Danville, on the. 24tli. He fired the first gun upon Fort Snuiter. He hud been much dejected since the downfall of Richmond and ifie surrender of Lee. Great Fire at Saratoga Springs. An extensive fire, supposed to have been the work of an incendiary, occurred at Sar atoga Springs on the JBtb. It broke out about half past four o’clock in the afternoon, in the United States Hotel—one account says iu two places—and spread very rapidly, soon entirely destroying that extensive edifice, ten cottages iu the vicinity, the Marvin House, Marvin rew, three club bouses, a telegraph office and an express office. Two lives Were lost. Piwmcrt's Biot at Flashing, L. I. The beautiful and usually quiet little town of Flushing, Lting Island, was the scene of a terrible firemen’s riot on the 20th. The va rious fire companies ot the Long Island vil lages, together witli delegations from New York and Brooklyn, had assembled to bavea trial of their engines, and thousands of spec tators, men, women aud children, were col lected in the main street of the town to wit ness lire sport. Soou after the commence ment of the proceedings an attack was made on one of the machines, and instantly a wild scene ensued, pistols, knives aud stones being freely used by the combatauts. The figlu lasted for a considerable time, and it is re ported that during its continuance three per sons were killed aud forty or titty wounded. Reckiits of Cotton’.— By Jhe arrival of the Jeff Davis yesterday afterno >n, 178 bales ot cotton were received, on Government ac count, from Augusta. This tr.(truing three flats arrived from Augusta, having on board 3(»3 bales of cotton, on private account. The cotton will be immediately sent North. Total receipts for two days 541 bales. Dki’aiituke of tue Geokoja Delegation.— The New York Herald's Washington corres pondent says that the Georgia delegation left there for New York, cr. route for Savuunah, on the 20th. They will probably arrive here on the Nevada, which sailed from New York on the 24th. WENDELL PHILLIPS. Tins gentleman has made a public retrac tion of his late speech in which he said, that if the negro was not granted immediately full aud equal suffrage with the white man, he would advocate the repudiation of the Na tional debt. Phillips, overcome by the storm of indig nation which overwhelmed him from all quarters, now baek9 down and says, that he meant the Rebel public debt. Os course this is all nonsense, for no loyal people ever had any idea ot paying the Rebel debt under any i circumstances, and it is simply a very- small ! hole for Phillips to creep out of. However, j Wendell Phillips lias ceased to be of any public consequence since the day he would not sec, ns did Lloyd Gatrisou, that the work of the Anti-Slavery Society is done. When he accepted the Presidency of a So ciety the labor of which is accomplished, and has been for a year and a half, he simply made himselt the laughing-stock of the whole land. Tiie abolition of slavery being a fixed fact, the legitimate life of the Apti- Slavery Society was determined. Everybody could sec it bat Phillips, and an interested few who have always lived off the Society and don’t know where else to look for their bread and butter. The Aoti-Slavery Society is now simply a mistake, if not worse. Exools of the Fkeedukn. —When it was formally declared to the negroes that they were free, this goodly city was lor days over run by the poor creatures who, in the dis traction of their Joy, flocked hither, they k'ieav not why. Tube aroused by no morn ing born, to have no appointed hour at which the voice of authority bade them go afield, to go aud come, eat and drink and sleep just as they would, were such novel sensations that it is uot surprising the ex citable negro nature was half drunken by the sudden and exhileratlngßemoval, of life time restraints. Eager to see and hear, happy for the day and hopeful for the morrow, they crowded our streets, lounged at the markets, blocked up in motley crowds the doors of public offices, and doubtless by their numbers, their persistency, and their numerous wants, thoroughly ’exhausted at times the patience of those officials who have their guidance and welfare in charge. Within the last few days, however, the seething crowds that lounged about the high ways aud byways of Augusta, have wonder fully thinned out. Many, yielding to the pinches of inexorable necessity, or tiecoming convinced that such was their better course, have returned to their former homes and masters, to work as usual, and m ,ny others have by the efforts of the authorities, been provided with places where they can sup port themselves, and be useful to the couutry. Nut a few of them have also departed tor Sa vannah and other coast points, and the result of all these drains has been to permit the mil itary and the citizens to breathe free once more. So far as we learn by our exchanges, the same welcome change ha 9 taken place in most of our Georgia cities and towns, and as a measure of relief to their inhabitants, and an indication of the settling down of this class, the exodus is one doubly refreshing to chronicle. — Augusta Constilutior.ufict. Natchez Items* The Courier of the 3d has the annexed par agraphs : Country Trade. —The city lias been crowd ed all the week with teams from the country. Cotton is corning in freely, with other pro duce, and our couutry planters are making ready with supplies for the heated teim of months before them. It looks like old times in the city, especially on ‘’Cotton Square.” We welcome the glad faces of old triends again to the City of tbe Bluffs. Arrival of Gun. J. B. Hood.— Lieut. Gen. Hood, C. S. A., with two officers of his staff, Cols. Graham and Cunningham, surrendered to Gen. Davidson, May 31st. The River. —At Vicksburg the Mississippi River is falling at tbe rate of six inches per twenty-four hours. At Natchez the water is falling, and in the lakes of Louisiana the flood is receding very fast. At the time of expected invasion at the beginning of the century, some of the town magistrates called upon’an old maiden lady at Montrose, and solicited her subscription to raise men for the service of the king “Indeed," she answered, right sturdijy, ‘Til do nae sic tiling; I never could raise & mail for mysel, and tin no gnun lo raise men for K'mg George.” ||ititll!geiue.
