Ulie report of the Reconstruction commit teein favor of the amendment of the Consti tution, basing representation in Congress on the number of voters, was adopted by the House of Representatives by an unexpectedly large vote. Every member that had ever been regarded as sympathizing with the Re publican party, voted for the proposition, ex cept RorssEAC and SMITH, The vote of RAYMOND, "KILUXH OP Bes. VATIOHAli MEDICAL, COJIVEXTfOBr. Pun terday as intended in consequence of a pres sure of business. In my last I only alluded to general impressions in regard to the political temper of uieu and their surroundings. This morning I propose to confine myself more particularly to the action of the American Medical Association upon professional mat ters. After the VERY I must stop here and refer a littU mora to this subject of the presiding officer, for the delay in the business of the convention, and the confusion often manifested in the pro ceedings, were solely attributable to hia in capacity. We at the West have been accustomed to look upon New England as being the seat ol the intelligence try, THE REVIVAL of Kentucky. of New York, in sup port of the report ofthe "Central Directory," takes the public by surprise, and in view of his unfaltering adherence to the President's policy, is regarded as somewhat significant. The vote was 128 to 37, a two-thirds vote. The indication thus furnished by the action of the House leads to the conviction that the measure will be adopted by the Senate, and then all that will be required is that the Leg islatures of three-fourths of the States adopt it, aud the formal work of reconstruction will have been perfected. THE terrible mob which the rebels of Mem phis represented through the telegraph as a negro insurrection, and which Copperhead fklitors, in sympathy with rebels, still insist was a nagro mob, resulted in the death of some seventy negroes and the burning of a 1 the negro buildings in Memphis. And yet with all this loss of life on the part of the eetored population. Copperhead journals would have us believe that it was a negro plot of armed soldiers which the whites simply •ought to defend themselves against, and that only two whites lost their lives, one of whom fell by the hands of an Irishman, under the following circumstances as detailed by the Memphis Commercial: DEXKIP.—Yesterday af ternoon, Ben. Dennis, a brother in-law of Dr. Dickinson, and an old resident of this city, was shot and killed in what is known as Frank's Saloon, on Bank Alley, between Madison and Monroe streets. The circum stances, as near as we could learn, were tfeese Mr. Dennis was standing at the bar, tho course of his remarks, said and 'There's a boy (pointing to a negro named Reuben, a barber on .fefferson street), that has shaved me many a time. I have as much confidence in him as I have in any one. aud were I compelled to ask a favor to-morrow, he is the first I should go to.' During the delivery of these remarks, Michael Keenan was in the back room, partaking of his din ner, and when he heard Mr. Dennis make use of them, us came forward and saiil: 'What did you say st the same time striking Den nis with his pistol on tiie right temple, imme diately following the blow up by shooting him—the ball entering just below the heart and ranging upwards, causing almost instan taneous death. Keenan was arrested, but in some way managed to etfeet his escape." and refinement of the coun- and the people of that section as being a pare representative of tbe good breeding and CcientiHc standing of the nation. Indeed. Capital of New Kugland claims this much, aud it has been generally accorded. But if the late President of the American Medical Convention is to be taken as a repre sentative doctor of that section, then we pro test, and ask to be excused from awarding it My sucii compliment. Why, IN* SPRIKON®LD-—A. MI WASHINGTON*. D- c., May 7, 186R. GATE Cnrr: I did not write yon yes important Dr. Pallen matter had been disposed of and the Association fairly organized it divided into sections upon particular subjects, namely: Surgery, Prac tical Medicine, Hygiene, etc. Several val* uable papers were read in the several sections Mid ordered printed in the transactions.— Among these was one by Prof. Hughes on surgery another on Iyphtbeum, by a gentle man from Philadelphia, and another by a gentleman from this city on army diseases, as *ritness«d during the war. The subject of cholera was considered in committee of the whole, and a Dr. Marsden, from Montreal, made a very extended address on the proper sanitary regulations for the prevention of its introduction into this vicinity. This elicited considerable debate from gentlemen from Hew York. Philadelphia, Boston, and other cities, all of whom seemed to have particular plans of their ow i which they were extremely anxious to impose on the attention of the As sociation. The confusion arising from the desultory debate was very materially added to by the I'resideut ofthe Association, whom for utter want of knowledge of the most simple tales of parliamentary usago made.bad matters much worse. SLtetihTthTs District.' we know of a great many backwoods doctors out West who never think for one moment far belter! ignorant of parliamentary rules, and yet as- •titninp to know them all, frequently ungen- tjeinanly and personally disrespectful in his deportment, ludicrous and sometimes gro tesque in his actions, he succeeded in keeping the Associatian in as much confusion as he Veil could. It is to be hoped tnat hereafter tlie Association will be more careful in* the selection of a presiding otticer. The debates on cholera were very interest ling, as eliciting quarantine, ide •e'.-ure great revival which commenced In Springfield, 111., some weeks ago, still continues with undi minished prwer. Union meetings for prayer, as well as for preaching are held in the open air, because there is no room to be had of sufficient dimensions to accommodate the multitudes that attend the meetings. Hnn dreds, if not thousands, have been added to the several churches of the city since the commencement of the meetings, and the good work is still going forward. The State Register, which was at first dis posed to sneer at the movement, now says: "There can no longer be a doubt in the mind of any hut that the revival at present in progress among us has been instrumental not only in bringing individuals to a sense of their duty and a change of conduct, but, at the same time, has exercised a wonderful in fluence upon the whole community. While many have been converted among us, we be lieve all our cjU£en8 hare beep more or less benefitted, and should the interest in the re form be kept up, it is to be hoped that even more may yet be apcomplished. What the officers of the law and the vigilance of the authorities have failed to effect, has been quietly brought about by the influence of these religious meetings. We refer to the moral reform in the community which has taken place within the past four weets— evidences of which are constantly observ able. Even the fears for the safety of life [and property, which pervaded society so receiitly. have been expelled, as it were, by an un known power, and a sense of security seems now to be felt by our citizens, such as has not been known for several years. If we are wrong in attributing this change wholly to the religious influence brought to bear upon society, we must it in this manner at least partially account for about such a 'cforin—a reform that has only been noticeable since the inauguration °f the cotton grow those meetings. The number of converts' being weekly received into the several churcher is also, and perhaps even a better evidence of the fruits ofthe revival. est«r day, fifty-five such persons united themselves with the Second rresbyterian Church, and other denominations are having their ntmi bers swelled in equal proportion.

The Charleston Courier of May 5th con tains a very interesting collection of intelli gence concerning the growing crops in differ ent southern States. In these districts we find accounts in most respects highly gratify ing of the conduct of the freedmen, and a hopeful statement of labor. The Sumter (S. C.) Watchman reports onr planters are applying themselves with a diligence which must secure at least a measurable degree of success. The freedmen, too. as a general thing, are working with a zeal and earnest ness exceeding the expectations of our peo ple at the beginning of the year. A Georgia correspondent of the Macon Journal and Mes senger, from Barber county, on the 2'itb, writes Where there is no bureau the freed men are working well, and some are very well satisfied May and June will try them. The Atalanta Commercial Bulletin has the following from a correspondent in the Sothwestem part of Georgia Owing to the great scarcity of labor the cotton crop for this year will barely reach half the amount produced in 1800, which I think was estimated at four million of bales. I am clearly ofthe opiuiou that 1.500,000 bales is a full estimate for the coming'crop. This State at the pres-ent time possesses more negroes than her sisters, yet she will hardly ,, -r make half a crop with few exceptions. There not a e know of naught else ,hat which has thus suddenly arisen to bring Georgia and emigrate westward.

Thank Heaven, the criminal design was not realized, and thef pages of Russian history remain unstained by a sanguinary deed of unpredeceuted atrocity. The chroniclers of our time have been spared the distressing duty of handing down to pos terity the tale of a nefarious act hitherto un known in the annals of the Russian people. The life of him whose rule at this moment is so indispensable to Russia has been provi dentially preserved. At the moment when the criminal design, long matured in the miscreant's head, was about to be carried out.

Ossip (.Joseph) Kommissa roff, a young man of twenty-five, was born in the villiage of Molvitino, province of Kos troma. The village belongs to Baron Kuster, to whora KomtnissarofF stands in the relation of a lilerated annuity-paying aerf.

Coming to the river side, close to the Marble Palace, he perceived that the bridge was removed and the passage temporarily interrupted.
