THE CONCERT TO-NIOHT.-We publish, with pleasure, the following communica? tion with reference to the concert, this evening, for the purpose of assisting in thc erection of the Washington Street Metho? dist Church. Visitors to the concert arc requested to enter by the sith- gate: MESSRS. EDITORS: It is gratifying to ?ee once more voluntary and unpaid efforts made to repair some of the wastes of war and sacrilege. It is a cheering sign of re? turning moral health, and evidence of a sounder tone of the public confidence. The last fifteen months have seemed an age . a dark age-of ruin and paralysis. We sat nerveless amid our desolation, imbibing and cherishing impressions of horror, until we became ourselves counterparts of thc ruins over which we brooded. Not alone have the hands of men seem palsied, bnt in many cases their hearts petretied. The delicate and tender sensibility which so long and so conspicuously characterized our community, was, in a great measure, lost or blunted by hard, material cares. Bnt we begin to note a change for the better, affluence no longer looks coldly upon destitution. Misfortune no longer excludes its victims from the regards and sympathies of their fellow-men. Those re? gards and sympathies are gradually reco? vering their hold upon our hearts, and one of tho saddest consequences of the result of the war-the loss of fraternal feelings and ueigbborly kindness -is rapidly passing away, and will be remembered* no moro forever. Imperative as is thc duty ol loving our neighbors as ourselves, more sacred and binding still is that of loving om Got! with all the mind, all thc soul and all the strength. Any effort to repair the waste places of Zion should commend itself to our hearts with special force. How sad it is that ruins should occupy the spots where rose the holy temples of the Most High, and that His flocks should continue to wander without shelter and shepherds! This evening something will be attempt? ed in behalf of the Washington Strict Methodist Church. A concert will be given hy competent and distinguished perform? ers and vocalists, lt will he composed of ?elections of the best music, popular bal? lads, duos, trios, quartos, airs from operas, and a few instrumental pieces, lu a notice of this sort, we cannot venture to mention the names of those who so generously give their services and talents in aid ?f the church. We may say. in general terms, that the very best array of musical skill and vocal excellence will ne presented, und, without particularizing further, that the voice, of one will be heard who reigns, and long has reigned, a queen of song in our midst, distinguished no less for tho sweet? ness, delicacy, power and cultivation of her voice, than for her control ovei its highest and lowest notes, and for thc grace, charm, and geniality of her man? ners. We trust that a full attendance and large receipts will testify to the public ap? preciation of thu cause'to which the pro. ceeds of this concert will bo given. We will dose with one suggestion to the performers themselves. Sing us some of the. songs of Zion. p. - - The oldest church now existing in this country is situated near Smith? field, Isle of Wight County, Va. It was built in the reign of Charles I., between the years 1630 and 1C35. The brick and lime and timber were imported f- >m England. The tim? ber is English oak, and was framed in England. The structure is of brick, erected in tho most .substantial manne:'. The mo tar has become so hardened that it. w '1 strike bro in col? lision with steel. * Always be cool when yon find your 9elf in a hot place. Prentice. Kram WuKhtngioM. A telegraphic despatch to.thoPhila I delphia Ledger, from Washington on j thc 8th, gives the following infor? mation : Quite a number of Virginians from the Northern portion of the Shite, who have been summoned us jurors for Hie Circuit Court of the United States, nt Norfolk, passed through the city .yesterday. They ure all men who have been noted for their adhe? rence to the Union cause (luring the war. The reconstruction debate in the House, notwithstanding the fine weather, has attracted but few listen? ers, and the speeches of Messrs. Stevens. Blaine and others were de? livered, so far as- the galleries were concerned, to "a beggarly account, of empty boxes." Scar _dy a measure ol* the season has been discussed in w4iicb there was so little interest manifested, and the friends of the "amendment" have quite lost heart in consequence, indeed, 1 see more reason than ever to reiterate what 1 telegraphed y on last week, that it will be utterly impossible for tho pro? posed plan to make any headway in either Congressional or public favor without a thorough ?iud essential change in the programme. The preachers of the Methodist Protestant Church, whose General Conference has been in session at Georgetown for several days, paid a visit to the President, to-day, ina body. The orator of thc occasion, a ven? erable and impressive man of Cod, gave the President assurance of the continence they had in him, in his laudable efforts to restore the Union, and bring back the entire country to peace und happiness. The President was assured that thc prayers of the clergy and congrega? tions of the Church they representen would be freely offered up in his be? half, and for the success in his patri? otic and praiseworthy purpose. The President cordially thanked the Conference for the generous ex I pression of their confidence in hit ; official acts, remarking he would cou i tinue to merit it and their prayers.

The news by the China brings the foll<Hviug interesting account of the attempt to assassinate the Emperor of Russia, it is from the Invalide Russe: Yesterday; tho 16th, whilo the Emperor'was walking in tho Slimmer Garden, a crowd assembled at the gate to seo his Majesty enter his car? riage. Among those people, -who wore animated with feelings of devo? tion and love towards tho monarch, whose name is never mentioned by anyone except with expressions of respect and gratitude, there was a miscreant meditating an attempt upon tho. most valuable lifo in Russia. Thank Heaven, the criminal design \\as not realized, and tho pages of Russian history remain unstained by a sanguinary deed of unprecedented atrocity. The chroniclers of our time have boen spared tho distressing duty ol" handing down to posterity tho tale of a nefarious act hitherto unknown to the annals of the Russian people. The life of him whose rule, at this moment, is so indispensable to Rus sia, has been providentially preserved. At tho moment when the crimi..al design, long matured in tho miscre? ant's head, was about to be carried out. Providence, taking pity upon Russia, mailt; a simple peasant, Ossip lvanovitch Koniniissaroff, tho instru? ment of its will. Ossip (Joseph) Kommissaroff, a young man of twen? ty-five, was born in the village of Molvitino, Province of Kostroma. The village belongs to liaron K?ster, to whom Kommissaroff stands in tho relation of a liberated annuity-paying serf. Having been lately allowed to go to St. Petersburg ami work in a halter's shop, le- soon ros !?: his calling, became foreman, and tarried a peasant girl, 1>;. whom In- has a little daughter eight mont lis old. lb was still foreman at Mr. SadolVs, tin hatter, when fate el ian ire 1 his desti? ny, and in an instant altered his en? tire career. The 16th being his birth? day, he went to say his prayers in th? chapel near the house of Peter th? (?reat. Coming to tim river side close to tho marble palace, he per ceived that the bridge was removed and the passage temporarily inter rupted. Retracing his steps, ho thei made his way to the Summer ( larden at the gate of which a crowd was as scmbling round au Imperial <-?nii page. Knowing the carriage to Ix the Emperor's, and longing for th? happiness of beholding his Majesty lui joined tho crowd waiting for th? monarch's arrival. Presently thor? was a stir and animation in the crowd and he saw his Majesty in an over coat. His Majesty approached iii carriage, and was putting on Iii . cloak, when a young man, w ho ha< been standing behind KODJ mi-.taro fl tried to push him aside. This indi dividual had repeatedly attempted t penetrate through the surroimdin; j crowd and get m arer the earriagi but Kommissaroff, wishing to see th Emperor, would not suffer him t squeeze through and plant himsel before him. At the moment who tho Emperor was putting ?MI his eloali tb*1; individual, pushing Kommissar?) aside, made his way to the iron ranks of the multitude. Kemmiss: rofl" followed him closely. Heidi ; had the assassin got near the fhnpi mr. winn, drawing a pistol fro] underneath his overcoat, he leveled at the Emperor. Kommissai'off. wh had noticed this movement, instant] caught him by the arm. and. diver ing thc pistol from its aim, caused to discharge in the air. In anotlu i moment, the assassin was arreste? land Kommissaroff, a prey to a thot j sand anxieties, lost in the surgin I crowd. Thus was the valnal le life? ! his Majesty tin- Emperor saved. H ! Imperial Majestv at once drove1.? t! I Cathedral of th?: Holy Mother of Oe I of Kasan. Then- he alighted to than j his Maker, who. through tho agem of so humble an instrument, lia i (.liveried the assassin's hand from h royal person. The news of the nm derons at tempt rapidly spread throne thc town. At first, no one won! credit the report. The like of ii lui never occurred in Russian histor; and people WOllld Hot believe t! current rumor. But soon ali doub were dispel], d. The members ?>1 t! i Council of State, who bad just ht . holding a sitting in the Winter I* lace, won- the first to express t.- li .Maj. sty the feelings of horror ai joy occasioned by this overpower!] event. At 7 o'clock, all general officers and other persons havit access at Court, assembled in tl Winter Palace. lu all thisassembl there was no one capable of accoiii ing for the 1 reacher?MIS deed, or at : acquainted with thc person ?iud eli raider of the criminal. W hen 1 Majesty condescended to make I appearance among the gentlemen w j wer?- waiting to pay him their i spects, he was greeted with tu? I scribable enthusiasm. His Majest 1 having addressed them in a few iri I oions words, wished to sen Komm saroll'. The eyes of all were intent directed towards the young man. I is i>f middle si/.c and common appearance. The Emperor, havi I expressed his monarehial feel i nj i condescended to signify to tin- you man that he had raised him to t ' rank and 'dignity of ;. noblem; .Many and l'uni wi re the hurrahs tl ; resounded through thc ball upon tl announcement of imperial favi After this, J.H present repaired to t . Preobrasheuski Cathedral to atte ! divine service, and return their hea ! felt thanks to the Almighty for 1 pres ovation of thc beloved Czar. In thc t "vening, the town was illuminated. An immense concourse of people thronged round the palace. All were delighted to learn that dod had pre? served the life of their liberator, the life of him whose rule and wisdom are so indispensably required for de? veloping the new principles of our civil administration, consolidating tho integrity of the Empire, and securing a felicitous future to our race. Hence? forth, tho name of Kommissaroff will bc one familiar to all Russians. From generation to generation, it will be handed down to the latest posterity. The Russian nobility abounds in illustrious families, who have do served well of their country. Their number has now been increased by ono whose founder - himself emanci? pated by Alexander II preserved for tho benefit of all Russia thc lifo of his liberator. CONGRESS WAHNEU.- The Constitu? tional Union, published at Washing? ton, in its issue of Wednesday con? tains an n?tido on Congressional ac? tion in the following words: "These men had better beware; they are not a legal Congress, but an unconditional body of usurpers. The country feels that the one great error nf the President was ia his ever recognizing them at all. lu their self-imposed rump condition, they liad no claim for recognition as au official boily from an honest man. or any other branch of Government. We doubt whether the Supreme Court will ever ailinn any of their acts to be valid. This thing of Congressional fanaticism and treason ought to be ?lone away with. The American Congress now is the fac? simile, of that rump Parliament which I stunk in the nostrils of all go >d men. ? and whiei, Cromwell kicked <>ut of' doors, and sen ed them just right. A | little Cromwellian [duck is just the thurn needed now. and there art' .j.on,i.on;) Democrats at the North who would face that kind of pluck S with a good tleal of relish just now. I Tin- issue should be joined at once." ; R\i? ATMOSPHERE. A New York man. who had not been out nf the I city f ir many years, fainted away in thc pure air of the country. He was only resuseitab I by putting a dead fish on his nose, when he slowly re? vived, exclaiming. "That's good-it smells like home."' Wi ndell Phillips, in his speech be- ! fore the Anti-Slavery Society in New. York, the other day, said: ""If Jeff.
