NEWS SUMMARY. Another National Bank Suspension Broke. The Merchants' National Bank, comer of 7th and D streets, Washington City, declined to honor any drafts or checks on the 4th inst. The Wash ington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, under date of the 4th inst., says : The presentation of a heavy check of a govern rnent official yesterday disclosed the shaky condi- tion oi uie concern, ana upon lnvesngauon, it is stated m the afternoon paper that a Baltimore broker, sometime since, got $150,000 from the bank, afterwards, to save themselves, the bank di rectors allowed him other sums. Last evening a committee of . .National .Bank Presidents here went to Balsimore to examine the collaterals of the bor rower, lint they were reported insufficient, though a full report of the examination will probably be rendered bv them to-morrow. Among the special deposits is one of $22,000 by Mr. R. W. Carter, dry goods merchant. It is also stated that the bank will make good all deposites, &c, made since Wednesday, when its officers first had reason to apprehend disaster. The bank stock is selling to day as low as two cents on the dollar, by holders anxious to get rid of it, because of individual re sponsibility. Settlement of a Difficulty. New Oeleans, May o. President Johnson has ordered General Canby not to interfere with the United States Court. The President first ordered GenerarCan by to make a full report by telegraph of the con flict upon which he acted. The court was reopen ed immediately. By instruction of the President, General Canby has released the cotton held by the military, and tumed it over to the United States marshal. Tennessee Legislature. Nashville, May 3. The Senate has passed the franchise bill by a vote of 13 against (J. It is now a law, and dis franchises over nine tenths of the people of Ten nessee. At a social pic-nic near Galveston, Texas, Gen. Longstreet was present, and in reply to a toast to Gen. It. E. Lee, said that "language failed to ex press his great admiration for Gen. Lee, but he would be pleased if the General could be so situa ted that he could give the command, "By nations, right wheel." Upon being introduced he had n eviously ottered a toast to the "homespun dress es the Southern ladies wear," preceded by a few remarks showing the determination of the speaker to pursue peaeeably and quietly the honorable calling he has chosen, advising all to shun ex tremes, as we are in that condition, politically, in which we can find no plank or platform to stand upon that is likely to prove acceptable to the pow ers that may reconstruct. Buttons. Certain ladies of Charleston wrote to General Lee, asking him to give them as, . a me mento something, no matter how trivial, which he had worn during the war. The rebel chieftain sent them some uniform buttons, with the follow- ing letter: Lexington, Va., Dec. 22d, 1805. Vour K t t-r of l:;th inst. has been received, and I wish it was i i in . power t send vou something worthy of accept ante ; l.nt 1 have nothing which I "wore during our long straggle better than these buttons.

The Old and New School Presbyterians of Col orado have united in one body, to be styled the " Presbytery of Colorado. The Late liior in Norfolk. Major Stanhope. The following letter published in the New York Da llfk, puts Major Stanhope in a very unenvia ble position, and suggests a significant reason for his slander ol the A hitehursts, and for his exclu sive communication with the dying lady : To the L'-iitors of Hit- iKitj Book : Sir As many stories have been circulated about the re-cf.-nt affair on the l.'tli of last month, in which I lost my wife and sin, and as I perceive by the papers that Major Stanhope asserts that mv wile gave him to understand that slu- received her death wound from my son whilst en deavoring to take a pistol out of hi 3 hands, I think it is oniv right and proper that I should make a statement In the first place there has not been in my house, or in po-seMon ot any one ot my iamily, such a thing as a pis o! for tmi years. Neither of my sons had a pistol in his hands at tin-time, or at any time'd tiring that morning, and it is ruinaikabk: that Major Stanhope should get such in f .i ination fr .m my wife, when no one else about her, either U tore or after, eoVdd get any sign from her. Major Stan hope and his squad of men came in my house, but made n. .t the slightest attempt or oiler to assist my wife, but left her lying mi the floor, helpless and suffocating. As he "is the only one who could get any sign from my wife. I wish he had been able to ascertain who robbed her pockets of about 5G0 or $70, and also who carried off my own and my wile's clothing, family bible, &c. I will also state that he refused to allow my friends to come in to the assistance of my wife. John Whitehtbst, Norfolk, Va. A trial of skill by the telegraphers of New Eng land and New York will take place on Monday, 7th inst., the prize being a silver telegraph key.

Total, 430,101 acres. Tun Little Girls of Baltimore. We see it stated that the noble-hearted little girls of Balti more are making arrangements to hold a fair of their own for the benefit of the poor little children of the Southern States. The conception, whoever may have originated it, is beyond all praise, and will but serve to endear the Monumental City the stronger to the hearts of the Southern people. LyncJiburg Neics. A Boast foe Gen. Lee. The Lynchburg News says a fine roast f ern one of the mammoth Balti more steers was seLt to Gen. Lee. Internal Beveni e. The receipts from internal Bevenue on Saturday were $765, 052 70, and the total receipts for the week ending Saturday were $8, 301,3 IS 121. Lu.or for the Softii.

Merchants' National Bank Failure. Wash ington, May 6. Up to yesterday it was ascertain ed that over three-fourths of a million of dollars was on deposite of government funds at the Mer chants' National Bank of this city. Paymaster Pauldings' deposit was six hundred and ten thou sand dollars. Mr. Kennedy, late of New York, has been, it is stated, appointed receiver. The Ei'iiEsi s. Considerable uneasiness is felt about tin's steamer, which left Liverpool at 12 M., -u the 0th of April. She is a slow sailer, but she is now ten days past the outside time of any rea sonable passage. President Johnson. President Johnson has, within a day or two, signified a purpose not to leave Washington during the summer for water ing places or elsewhere. His daughters, Mrs. Stover and Mrs. Patterson, will probably spend the summer in Tennessee. Tnv. Division of Tennessee. Nashville, May 5.- At the Knoxville Convention, on Thursday, an address injt'avor of a separate State government for East Tennessee w as unanimously adopted, and the President was instructed to appoint a committee to take the matter before the Legislature. Yes terday a committee was appointed to lay the mat ter before the Legislature. Gen. T. A. Cooper ami Col. Temple then addressed the Convention at some length in favor of the movement, and an executive committee was appointed for the State and corresponding secretaries for each county. The Convention then adjourned sine die. Almost every county was represented. The ladies of Colunibus, Mississippi, who re cently decorated the graves of the Confederate dead in the cemetery of that city, paid the same mark of respect the following day to the memory forty Federal soldiers buried near by. This act elicits the approval of the press of that city, which claims that the war being over no distinc tion should be made between the departed heroes. List of Confederate Dead.

Our Memphis exchanges give us the details of the recent negro riots in that city. Instigated probably by the example of their Norfolk breth ren and the impunity with which the presence of the military enabled them to murder the whites of that city, the Memphis negroes formed a plan to sack the city and rob the banks and the jewel ry stores. A fight between a white and a negro boy, on the 1st instant, formed the pretext, and when the police attempted to separate the com batants, they were fired upon by a band of armed negroes. A fight ensued with varying success, as reinforcements were respectively received by either side, but the negroes were badly worsted, ten be ing killed and a large number wounded. Mr. H. Dunn, a noble young man, who had no connec tion with the aflray, was fiendishly murdered by the blacks, and two citizens and two of the police seriously wounded. The excitement, says the Avalanche, " was frightful, and crowds of men, like huge and angry waves, surged and rocked on every street." The regulars were ordered out to aid in quelling the disturbance, and at a late hour of the night quiet was restored. During the night the negroes took possession of Fort Pickering and before day some 500 of them attempted to take possession of the Arsenal, but being threatened with a volley of grape retired. General rioting began about 9 A. M. ; an inoffen sive citizen who was driving a buggy was shot by a negro. , . "Then," says the correspondence of the Cincin nati Gazette, (a bitter Radical journal be it remem bered) "the war began in earnest. Startling ru mors reached the business portion of the city, and citizens arming themselves with all sorts of weap ons, rushed frantically in crowds to the , scene of the riot, breaking into gun and. pistol stores as they went, and appropriating all the arms they could find. They were followed by the Sheriffs force, the police, force, fir?eri rb p posse, or jganiised-and. annby.JJieLHayor. South street was again the battle ground. Here the negroes iiau cuiieui-eu-TO uie munuer oi at least i,cxa, Bear ing aloft ft black fla'g as their standard, and hoot ing, yelling, and firing in every direction. Most of them were discharged soldiers, still wearing their uniforms, and were armed with muskets. The citizens charged on them, pouring in a volley of shot at the same time, which caused the negroes to run, leaving some fifteen or twenty of their brethren dead and wounded on the ground. The return fire killed one citizen and mortally wounded two others. The advantage was pressed and the negroes were driven helter skelter beyond the city limits, scattering in every direction. Va tious rumors are afloat as to the number killed, but it cannot be les3 than fifteen. I have positive knowledge of eight. I could not learn the names of the white men. Outside the city limits the torch was applied to several negro dwellings, which are now a mass of smoking ruins. The white troops finally succeed in stopping the riot, and all is now quiet,, with the exception of . occasional firing in the suburbs. . . , . Most of the black rioters are skulking beyond the city limits, and the white troops, of whom there are only two companies, are disarming them as rapidly as possible. I think the riot is at an end, as the nearroes have been badly worsted, and there is not much dispo sition to molest them while they conduct them selves properly, -although the hremen and police are much incensed over the death of their com rades killed yesterday, and are prevented with diniculty from wreaking further vengeance on the blacks. The Avalanche says : "A negro woman made an affidavit to the effect that the necroes of South Memphis have been plotting this defiance to the laws and officers for the past four days ; that the plan was to kill the police, sack and burn the city, and that it was approved by the race for many miles around Memphis. It was not confined to this locality, but was wide spreadfand general." This testimony was also conhrmed by one of the dying negro rioters. The Argus says, "This is the bloom of civil riglds what the fruit will be, God alone can tell. If things progress long as they have been for the past two days, there will but few "darkies" left in the city to tell of "franchise" and "civil rights." American Medical Association Cholera. This Association, which has been in session for some days in Baltimore, met Friday morning at I) o'clock. Wo condense the proceedings from the Sun : The Chair appointed Dr. C. C. Cox as the repre sentative from the body to foreign medical socie ties, and Dr. J. C. Hughes, of Iowa, was added. Dr. Garrish suggested that some effort be made for a general and systematic registration of births and deaths in this country, which was accepted. An amendment to the Constitution was adopted making all delegates permanent members of the American Medical Association, so long as they re main in good standing in the societies from which they are sent. Dr. Bartlett, of New York, offered a resolution of thanks to the physicians, corporate authorities and citizens of Baltimore, and to the Governor of the State, for the warm welcome extended to the Association, which was unanimously adopted. Reports from the sections on ethics, obstetrics, surgery, hygeine, meturalogy and epidemics and chemistry were read and adopted. An unsuccessful effort was then made by some of the doctors who adheie to the theory of the contagiousness of cholera to pass a resolution re commending a plan of national quarantine for the adoption of the Government. After a lengthy and somewhat heated discussion the resolution was re jected, and the Association- adjourned to meet in Cincinnati on the first Tuesday of May, 18G7. After the adjournment of the Association, Dr. Sayre, of New York, issued a call and got up a meeting, at which the following memorial to Con gress was adopted : " To the Honorable Senators and Itepresentatives in Con gress assembled : The undersignad, being deeply impress ed with the necessity of prompt and efficient measures tor protecting the community against the approach of Asia tic cholera, and believing that the scientific investigations since 1832 have demonstrated the portability and commu nicability of the disease, petition your honorable body to adopt a uniform and general system of quarantine at every port, as recommended by Dr. Marsden, of Quebec, whose plan we beg leave respectfully to submit." A committee, including Dr. Sayre, was appoint ed to present the memorial, and the meeting ad journed. There can be very little doubt that the rigid enforcement of a quarantine at New York puts money into somebody's pocket ; else there would be no such anxiety on the subject. The violent determination of the New York doctors to manu facture cases of cholera is also worthy of notice. On Thursday an old woman happening to die somewhat suddenly, the doctors declared her case cholera, had her clothes burnt, turned everybody out of the house, and had the entire building washed out with fire engines. The next day it was proved beyond question that the old lady died, not of cholera, but of a disease with which she had been suffering for more than a year. The Direct Tax.

Ijast week a gentleman from North Carolina, but now connected with the Southern Express Company, met in Washington one of his former slaves, whom the war had liberated. The negro, recognizing his former master, lifted his hat, and they shook hads on the avenue. Said the gentle man, ' ' Come, Sam, I reckon you want something to drink," and the two stepped into a saloon. "Here, barkeeper, give this boy something to drink." The barkeeper looked at the complexion presented by the case, and launched out in a ti rade of abuse against the gentleman, whom he termed a " d d Radical negro worshipper," and said that if he gave that nigger a drink it would ruin his house, for no white man who heard of it would ever enter it again. The gentleman ex plained that the negro was at one time hi slave, and he his master, and so far from being a Rad ical or a worshipper of the negro, he was a strong Southern man in feeling and sentiment, and had fought in the Southern army. The astonished bar-keeper put up both hi nands with " Well, I never," and supplied an extra julep for Sam, con vinced that the real friend of the negro, after all, were not the Radicals, but their former masters.

' ' Washington, May C. : The Bank Failure Receiver Appointed by the Treas ury Another Suspension Needed Modifications of the National Hank Law The Colorado Bill to be Vetoed The Committee Constitutional Amend ment Goes Over Next Presidency. The Treasury Department has appointed a re ceiver to take charge of the affairs of the Mer chants' National Bank. "We may expect from him an early report of the result of his investigation into the concerns of the association. ..The firm of Maury & Co. , bankers, suspended on account of the collapse of the Merchants' Bank. There was a disposition on the rjart of the banks of this Dis trict to sustain this bank, provided it should be found to possess any business vitality, but it would appear that assets could not be found to the amount that would justify an effort to that end. A thor ough investigation of the affairs of this bank will suggest some necessary modifications of the law creating the national bank system, both for the protection of the government and of private citi zens. The President will undoubtedly veto the Colo rado State bill. The policy of Congress is to dis franchise eleven States, an enfranchise certain bo gus Territories, and thus to perpetuate their two thirds power. If they can get a number of radi cal Senators by dividing Tennessee and admitting several more Territories, they will probably do it. As the internal revenue bill will occupy the House this week, the report of the committee of fifteen proposing a constitutional amendment will not be taken up very soon, if at all. It will pro bably be recommitted, with instructions to the ef fect that, before they proceed to tinker the con stitution again, they should be required to read that instrument. The third section of their pro posed amendment, prohibiting persons who had participated in the rebellion from voting for pre sidential electors till 1870, shows that the commit tee were ignorant of the fact that electors may be chosen by State legislatures. Mr. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, nominated Gen. Grant for the next presidency in his speech on Friday. He says that the contest for the presi dency is fast narrowing down to a choice between Grant and Lee. , ,t .... . Proceedings of the Methodist General Conference It Adjourns Sine Die.
