PRESIDENT JOHNSON LOOMING UP AS A CANDIDATE. PROSPECT OF A GENERAL AMNESTY. [SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE DAILY NEWS.] WASHINGTON, June 21.-There is quite a.flut? ter lo-night among the knowing ones in Demo? cratic circles. The friends of the President here claim that he will certainly receive the largest vote on the first ballot at the Democratic National Convention. They tur thor an ti cipa to that within the next three or four days some official demonstration will bo made, the effect of which will be to secure for him the nomination. They are all the more confident of bis chances, be? cause until now he has not been spoken of as a candidate, and bas not, therefore, incurred the an tagt ni im of the partisans of t. 3 leading aspirants. It is claimed that Mr. Johnson's Y Rallant stand for the Constitution entitles him to tho gratitude and. favorable consideration of the Democratio party, and that some bold stroke of executive policy is all that is needed to insure him the requisite two-thirds vote. Hence it ia confidently etated that important events are near at hand. The current conjec? ture is that there will be a general amnesty. Oar Washington Dispatches. THE PBESIDINT'S VETO OP THE ASK ANSAS BILL BECKXTAB? x'ODIXOCIEt NOT HJS8IGK. T) ? GENE? RAL AJCfSBTT-?CONGRESSIONAL-TUE HOUSE PASSES THE A BEANS. AS BTU. OVER THE VETO. WASHINGTON, June 20. ~The President to-day returned the Arkansas bill to Congress with his objections. The veto menage says: "The ap? proval of thia bill would be an admission that the act for more efficiently governing the rebel States, and the acta supplementary' thereto, were proper aod constitutional; whereas, the President's opinion ia unchanged in this re? spect, but rather strengthened by results at? tending their execution. If Arkansas is not a State, this bill does not admit her; if she is a State, no legislation is necessary to her repre? sentation in Congress. Each House, under the constitution, judges the election rr turne and qualifications of its own members, and no? thing is necessary to. restore Arkansas but the decision by each Hoc<o of eligibility ot those presenting credentials. This is the plain and simple plan of the^constitution; Had it beeu .^adopted in 1865, instead of legislation of doubt? ful constitutionality, and therefore unwise and dangerous, restoration-would long since have been accomplished. " The President a?ain recommends the adop? tion of the constitutional plan.-The terms pro? posed are scarcely applicable to a Territory, certainly not to a State, which has occupied a . place in the Union over a quarter of a century. The President is unable to find any authority for the conditions of the bul in the Federal Constitution. The elective franchise is re? served by the constitution to the States ?hem? polves. The hill fails to provide how Arkansas shall signify ber acceptance of. the fundamen? tal conditions, nor does it prescribe "penalties for their nullification. It is seriously ques? tioned whether the constitution bas been rati? fied according to the law assumed to be in force before its* adoption. The Arkansas Constitu? tion restricted franchise on its ratification by tests unknown in the Reconstruction acts ; among them the acceptance of political and civil rights of all mon. ..It is well known that a large portion, if not a large majority, of elect? ors do not accept this test, and if applied to voters North, there is reason to believe many of tbem would remaiu away from the polls rather than comply with its degrading condi? tions. The President concludes: "Should the peo? ple of Arkansas, therefore, de lire to regulate tho elective franchise eo as to make it conform to the constitutions of a large proportion oftbe States of the North and West, and to modify the pr o vi ai on s ref erred ta in the fundamental condition, what is to be the consequence? Ia j, it intended that a denial of representation shall follow? And if so, may we not dread at some fu? ture day a recurrence of the troubles which, haves? krag agitated the country? Would it not be the part of wisdom to take for our guido the Federal Constitution rather than resort to measures which, looking only to the present, may in a few years renew, in an aggravated form, the strife and bitterness caused by legis? lation, which has proved to bo ill-timed and unfortunate?" v' The Tax bill, as reported to-day, comes up on Monday, and will occupy the House without interruption until it is concluded. It reduces whiskey to sixty cents. It is elaborate in. de? tails for collection. It is probable a general amnesty will be pro? claimed on the 4th of J uty. The President nominated Richard W. Mellen Collector of Customs for tho Teche District, Louisiana, and Henry C. Meyers Receiver of Money in the Land Office, Natcbitocbes, La. The President has pardoned the Confederate General H. Heith. The Corruption Committee continues ex? amining witnesses. CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.

Asimilar petition was presented, irom 1.: borers and citizens of j Delaware. Without acting on the veto the Senate went executive session and adjourned. i HOUSE.-Tho House was occupied with un? important matters until the veto of the Arkan? san bul, whioh was passed by 110 to 13, the veto notwithstanding. It was a party vote, except Stewart, of New York, who voted with the Re publioan-. Th Kentucky election contest came up, and was discussed to adjournment. OTU European Dispatches.

The Earl of Malmesbury, Lord of tho Privy Seal, in reply, said that the Ministry had not yet considered the point. The Duke of Cambridge, commander-in chief of the army, expressed the opinion that an award of tin usual honors to members of the Abyssinian expedition would be a bad prece? dent.

NICE DOINGS JN. GENES .AL MEADE'S DETAET MENT.-Tho following is in substance the affi? davit of John Wells', a freedman, of Columbus, Ga., in regard to tho treatment bo received at the hands of military authority while in eua to? dy asa witness in the Ashburn murder case. It is one of a number of d?positions carried to Washington by Mr. Lamar, pf Georgia, to se? cure, if possible, some action by means of which the men no iv held jas prisoners at Fort Pulaski may-have a fa ir and impartial trial: ! Wells deposes that he was arrested with the other prisoners and taken to Fort Pulaski. :A11 were stripped and searched for weapons and money, which latter was taken from each of the prisoners and has not yet been returned. Each prisoner was confined in a separate cell, with an empty cell between those occupied by prisoners. Soon after they were confined some Eeryoo, apparently in- authority, asked,'in the earing ' of witness, whether the razors wpre ready tb ebave 'the heads of the prisoners. The reply was " yes. * Wit? ness was then blindfolded and taken to another' part ot the fort, seated in a chair and held by two mea while his head was being lathered and preparations made to shavo it. Some person took hold of his hoad and drew it ba 'k. and during the struggle caused by wit n?s i distance the bandage wa? partially rc mo\ ! 'ro^i his eyes. Witness found himself in a ca?eouate and a cannon placed in front of him and .a man appeared to be. in - the act of ] firing it. Witness became so alarmed that he begged permission to make a statement of all ho knew. Fifteen minutes were allowed for the purpose. Witness then told oil he know in connection with the killing of Ashburn. He dcclared his own innocence and knew nothing to implicate others. He. could not give false testimony against others, and if they meant to kill him tor refusing, ho would have to die. Witness was shortly thereafter reconducted to hie cell, where ho . waa confined several days, during which time'ho was frequently interro-. galed, and was dually released, with the ex? planation that they .believed ho wa? honest aud told the truth. Before leaving tho fort he was cautioued never to speak of what occurred there, and if be did they would bring him back and keep bim five years. Witness stated that the ex-Proviaioual Governor, James Johnson, wa? ono of thnae who took au activo part in terrifying and catechising tho witness, and that Johnson conducted himself in a very vio? lent manner. A MOB TN WrunrKaioN, N. C.-The Wil? mington Journal of Saturday aavB: Our city was the scene of the most' disgrace? ful occurrence last night it ban been our duty ever to note as occurring within its limits. About half-past eight o'clock I he police arrent ed a negro at the Market House, who had pre? viously beon seized by ono or two white mon foran act of stealing. While attempting to bring the prisoner lo the guardhouse, the officers were assaulted by a crowd of furious, excited negroes, who undertook his rescue. They were assailed hy the mob with a ahower of brickbat?, stones, eVc, which took effect upon several officers, causing (hem painful iu juries. ST furious and determined was the on? set of theeo negroes, that tho prisoner was lit? erally torn from the custody of tho officers, who "wore compelled to retreat to tho guard? house, followed by the excited mob which con? tinued to assail them in the man uer above stated. Even at tho very gates of the City Hall, with loud cries and threats of violence, they continued their disorderly proceedings, and were only dispersed by a squad of soldiers which had been ecnt for and luckily soon ar? rived. Wo can but regret the uujust mockery which places our police force on duty to pre? serve order and denies them the means of self protection-numerically weak as they are-in the discharge of this duty. -Democratic Clubs havo formed in Green? ville, at Montgomery's and Norlh Saluda.'

OH ASI AS ELEMENTS OF A FLATFOBM TO UNITE ALI DEMOCRATS AND OTHERS OPPOSED TO BADI CALI8M-HE BEES NOTHING OBJECTIONABLE Iii THEM. A Washington correspondent of the Balti? more Gazette writes under date of the 18th inst : "In conversation with prominent Demo "crats yesterday Chief Justice Chase raention "ed that the following propositions had been "stated to him by different gentlemen of the "Democratic party as elements of a platform "likely to unite all Democrats and others "opposed to the present tendencies of the Radi "cal party, and observed that he saw in them "nothing to which ieasonable objection could "bo made. Tho conversation was not private, "and your correspondent is authorized to "give publicity to the propositions in the lan "guage in whioh they were stated by the Chief "JusUoe." They are as follows : Universal suffrage is a recognized Demo? cratic principle, tho application of whioh is to bc left, undor tho Constitution of tho I' ni tod States, to the Stales themselves. Universal amnesty and complete removal of all disabili? ties on account of participation in tho late re? bellion is not only a wise and just measuro of public policy, but essentially necessary to the beneficial administration of the government in the States recently involved in civil war with the United Utatos, and to the full and satisfac? tory re-establishment of the practical relations of those States with tho other States of the American Union. No military government over any State of the Union in time of peace, is compatible with the principles of civil liberty establish lished by tho constitution, nor can tho trial of private citizens by military commissions be tolerated by a people, jealous of thoir freedom and desiring to be free. Taxes should be re? duced as far as practicable, collected impar? tially and with strict economy ; also portioned so as to bear on Wf sith rather than upon labor, and while all national obligations should be honestly and exactly fulfilled, no special privi? leges should be allowed to any classes of indi? viduals or corporations. A THTBD rARTY MOVEMENT. ! The wcll-poatod New York correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger writes : Thurlow Weed is authority for a report that Conservative Democrats and Conservative Re? publicans aie really laying their heads togeth? er, at Washington, to put Judge Chase in the field os a third oand dato. Weod usually speaks by the card, in arrangements of Ibis character, and tho impression, therefore, is that there is something in it. No positive movement is to be made in advance of the Democratic Natio . al Convention, for reasons which must bo per? fectly obvious, even to thoso who are least versed iu the mysteries of politics. A Washington telegram of the 17th instant, to the New York Commercial Advertiser (Weed's paper), says: ! The return of Chief Justice Chase to this city bas revived the interest in his proposed nomination uv the New York Convention. It is understood that arrangements are now in progress for the formation of a coalition Presi? dential ticket of conservative Republicans and Democrats, with Mr Chase at its head, on the basis of oi position to Radicalism and centrali? zation, and acceptance of accomplished events of tho war. It is claimed by Mr. Chase's friends that he can cany more than half the Southern Slates, and cause a defection from tho ltepublioan party in (be Northern Staten that will elect the ticket and secure s full ma? jority in Congress. Tho democratic leaders so far are cautious and reticent, sind hesitate to commit them? selves in advance of a definite knowledgo of Mr. Chase's views.

CHASE AND THE PRESIDENCY-PB ESI DENT JOHN? SON SUPPORTS THE CHIEF JUSTICE. A Washington telegram (June 17) to the New York Herald says : Chief Justice Chase arrived here yesterday from his recent visit to the South. Last eve? ning he visited the White House aud had's long interview with President Johnson. It is learned from a high and reliable authority that the political condition of tho South and the prospectivo nominations to be made at New York by the Democratic Convention next month, formed themes of conversation between tho President and the Chief Justice. I Since the name of Chase was first mentioned in connection with tho Democratic nomination, Mr. Johnson has token an unusual iuterest in the proposed Convention. He hos frequently expressed bis praferenoe for Chase to those who introduced tho subject to him over all the other candidates.. lu his opinion the nomina? tion of Chose would be the harbinger of victory for tho Democrats, and bis election would bring peace and quiet io the country, besides doing away with military rule and restoring the reign of law and ord cr. During the conversation hist evening the President frankly expressed the hope that the Democratic Convention would have the wisdom and policy to nominate Chose, around whom the conservatives and the consti? tution loving masses of tho country could rally. Ii this was done ho (Johnson) would do his ut? most to insure the success of the ticket. The Chief Justice thanked the President for his kindness, and expressed his willingness to ac? cept the nomination on the platform embrac? ing the living issues of the day. NEWS FROM WASHINGTON. From the Washington dispatches of the 18th instant in the Washington papers, we gather tho following: THE BUBB ATT CASE. District Attorney Carrington has, at this late hour, discovered that John H. Su rr alt cannot bo convicted of murder under the old indict? ment, and to-day a new one was found, charg? ing him, tinder tho act of July 17,1863, with giving aid and comfort to the enemy. There is a vast difference between this charge and .that upon whioh ho was tried last summer, at euch miine uso cost to tho government. An indictment for treason woe at one ti me thought of, but the District Attorney abandoned that, as tho requirement of two witnesses to the overt act could not be complied with. THE CHINESE AT A BE VIE V,'. Tho review of troops hero lo-day, nuder com? mand of General Hancock, was a brilliant and pleasing spectacle Tho display took place at Lincoln depot, east of the capitol, the main on* tronco nf which, together with the dopotbuild? ings and stand, were decorated profusely with flags, including the dragon staudard of the Chinese empire, in honor of the embasBadors from that country, who were prominent among the invited guests. Tho troops under arms comprised the United States Twelfth Infantry; Twenty-ninth Infantry; Forty-fourth Infantry; Company K, Fifth United Slates Cavalry, and Company M, Fourth United States Artillery, with four gnus. The" President, Secretary of War, Mr. Bur.ingarno and the Chinese, the va? rious foreign ministers aud logaMous, Chief Justice Chase, Miss Chase, Mrs. Sproguo, Mrs. Mcculloch, anda number of senators and rep? resentatives were present on the stand, and witnessed tho review. A salute was tired in honor of the Chinese, and the troops were marched in rcviow before them. Afterwards tho regulation exercises followod, comprising the manual of arms, cavalry evolutions, ?c., the whole winding up with a substantial colla? tion lo tho invited spectators and distinguish? ed persons. Exclusive of the timo for lunch the exercises lasted from ll A. M. till 2 P. M. BEPOBT OF THE SENATE CS THE ALLEGED ILL TREATMENT OF A NL'OI?0 WOMAN. The Senate Committee on the District of Columbia have made a report on the resolution heretofo.-o referred to them, instructing them to inquire into the alleged facts of Mrs. Kate Brown'B (the colored woman in charge of the ladies' retiring room of the Senate) forcible ejection from a passenger car of tho Alexandria and Washington Railroad Company in February last, and also instructing them lo inquire into what lurthcr legislation is necessary to protect the rights of passengers. The committee say that they Hud the tact;; to be as heretofore stated-that Congress has already provided in the charter that the company shall not make any discrimin?t ?on on account of race or color; that Mrs. Brown has instituted shit against the company for damages and injuries sustained, and that the policeman who ejected her from, the car has since been dismissed from the ser? vice of the company. The repeal cf the char? ter, the committee say, would inflict great in? jury io travel, bnt if the result of the legal proceedings which Mrs. Brown nae instituted shall not be satisfactory, the resolution cao be taken from the (able and the "charter of the company be repealed, or such measures adopted as shall at the same time be considered neces? sary to protect the rights of passengers upon that road, and they, therefore, recommend that the resolution for the present be laid upon the table.

Hunter, of Abbe? ville District, a few days since. When Mr. H. was making ready all prelim ra? ry arrange? ments for bis harvest, he waa modestly in? formed by his employees (Radical freedmen) that they would not harvest his wheat, thoufh under obligations to do so, unless'they receiv? ed extra pay for it. Though not expecting snch a declaration of intention from them, Mr. H. was in no way disturbed, bnt. over willing to accord to them the full liberty which he claimed for himself (of providing for his own affairs), as the day of harvest drew on, he made ready a sumptuous dinner for the occa? sion, and sent, out for his neighbors lo come, for all things were then ready. They respond , ed enmasse. and at an early hour a large field of fine wheat was entered by thirty white la? borers, a!! engaged in the various operations of harvesting. The field was reaped in an incre ? dibly short time, and the whole operation per I formed in full view of Ute sable malcontent-. The Explosion of ? S te nm Fire 1 ' uglne In New York. A shocking catastrophe occurred in the Bowory, New York, on Thursday evening, dur? ing a fire, owing to (be explosion of a steam tire engine, which resulted in tho lose of five lives and the wounding of nineteen other persons, which will probably increase the death roll. The Tunes gives tho following particulars of the sad catastrophe : The engine of No. 9 Company continued lo wotk st caddy and without incident for thirty minutes, when an order was issued to "take up," preparatory to going hom". Al the momout tho order referred to was given, an act of the performance al the B u wer y Thea? tre had jnst concluded, and men '?nil boys poured out of the pit door -upon tho sidewalk, and as it were, upon tho engine itself. The engineer, in compliance with the order given, made the necessary alterations' and turned on the cold witter. Instantaneously carno on ox plosion., JEhe-huge machine was klftqd a? by j ciui>?- linnd CTear from tire street, p?mSESS instant in mid-air, then sent, with terrible force, crushing and crashed upon the side? walk. Masses of iron, grate-bars, and pieces of rods were torn from the framework aud hurled through the crowd of human beings, being thrown in some instances a distance of one hundred feet. The steam from the rent boiler seethed and scalded its way through the dense mass of hump.! ii ty at the same moment, and with both the scalding steam and the mangling iron came Ibo terrible noise of tho explosion as it shook the neighboring houses, and with it thal still more awful sound, the shrieks of human agony. For homo moments there was confusion, con? sternation, waifing and nothing more. There wore crushed, mangled, blooding, writhing mon and boys upon the sidewalk ; there was thc hnge machine, rivon and hissing upon its side, bat no one seemed to understand the na? ture of (he catastrophe. Captain Jourdan, of the sixth precinct, was on the ground and was the first to bring something like order out of the terrible chaos. With the assistance of Ser? geant Wccms, commanding tho force of the tenth precinct, Captain Jourdan pushed back the crowd that had tumbled upon the scene the moment after the explosion, and who were trampling the wounded under foot in wild ex? citement. When order was obtained and tho scone thor? oughly surveyed, the bodies of four men and one boy were found who had been killed out? right. They were clad in the rough garb of labor lifo, and of the thousands about not one could tell what bad been the names and sta? tions of those four mangled bodies. One was that of a man about thirty years of agu, ol dark complexion, black hair and black whis? kers, and of about medium height. Another woe that of a cadaverous boy, not more than sixteen years of age, with light brown hair and smooth fair face. Another was that of a man of about twenty-five years, thickset and black haired, and not bearded. These three had each a leg literally torn into shreds, while the boy, in addition, had the flesh shaven from tho bones of the left arm as if deftly dono with a surgeon's knife. Tho fourth corpse was that of a man about thirty-five years of age. Ho had received but a single wound in the back of the head, where he had evidently beon struck by a mass of iron that had crushed the skull. These were the dead of the catastrophe, sent at once, and painlessly, it may be said, to thou account. They were singled out from the writh? ing mass of less fortunato victims, and placed in the streets where the thousands of specta? tors could gaze upon them. The dead wer? but the least fearful part of tho sight that met the gaze of thc terrified multitude the moment after the explosion. Thc wounded remained, and, torn and shriek? ing, they were more appalling by far thin tho painless dead. The explosion is attributable to carelessness iu allowing the water in tho boiler to run too low, and then suddenly feed? ing tho boiler with cold water, which, strikiug on tho hot surface, generated superheated steam, resulting in tho explosion. The boilor was allowed to carry between eiehty and ninety pounds of steam, and generally worked at a prossnro varying from sixty to eighty pounds. A .MODERN SAMSON.-Henry Fidler (a man of color) was convicted at Ibo Inst term of the Anderson County (Ky.)

His bail, becoming dissatis? fied, attempted, with the assistance of another maa, to arrest him. Henry declined to go to jail, and seizi . ono of the men with each haud, took thom up and ran across a field with th' in wilh apparent ease. He waa, how? ever, finally arrested, and when committed to jail it was' found that, ordinary trace-chains were insufficient to confine his limbs, and a heavy clasp of iron, maxlo expressly for the purpose, and fastened with thieo strong rivets, was placed upon his ankles. After his convic? tion, he Hr.ceeeded in bending thi? piece of iron in such a manner ns to freo his limbs, broke the locks upon the door of tho jail, and niftdo his escape.
