The ELECTION.

The election passed of yesterday very
og,e,Iy. In Rutland one would hardly have
known that anything unusual was taking
oJsce. Men came to the Town Hall and
voted and returned to their homes, the crowd
in the Hall at no time amounting 70 more
than TWO hundred. The entire number of
votes cast is little more than 400 only
a.out one third Of the usual number, No
special interest was felt from the fact that it
was well known there was to be no con
test in the election Of Town Representative
William Y, Nichols, Esq, the able and pop.
ular representative OF last year was elected
a, it will be seen without oppositi n, receiv-
ING all the votes, with the exception OF few
scattering,
The few returns received indicate that the
vote throughout the State is exceedingly
light,

BoUNTIEs.-lt appears from the following
telegram received by us yesterday afternoon
from Adjutant General Washburn, that per-
sons enlsting into old regiments after Sep
tember lst are to receive the United States
bounty and premium until further orders.
The bounty is one hundred dollars, twenty
five dollars OF which will be paid to the re-
cruit in advance upon being mustered into
service, and two dollars premium when en-
listed. The selectmen and recruiting officers
in the several towns should see that this no
tice is extended among the people Without
doubt recruits will be constantly wanted for
the regiments now in the field, inasmueh as
their ranks are constantly being thinned
more or less by sickness and casualties of the
service.
To THE RUTLAND DAILY HERALD:
Maj. Austine has just received instructions
from the Secretary of War to continue to pay
the United States bounty and premium alter
Sept. 1st, until further orders, for men en-
listing to serve in old Regiments.

IMPORTANT HABEAS CORPUS
CASE.

There seems to 10 a conflict peuding be-
tween the Judiciary and the War Depart
ment, arising out of the arrests recently made
in Chittenden county OF three persons for
disoyal practices, A writ of habeas corpus
was issued last week by Judge Smalley OF
Burlington, in behalf OF Auson Field, one of
the parties arreste t.. The hearing was had
on the lst inst. The Marshal appeared with
out the prisoner and made return that the
arrest was made under the order OF Secreta-
ry Stanton, OF Aug. s, 1862, relating to dis
couraging enlistments, and under the order
of the Secretary Of War suspendlng the writ
OF habeas corpus in such cases, and also in
pursuance to special orders from the same
source. The Marshal had received, on Sat
urday, on his request for instructions, the
following telegram;
Washington, Aug. 80, 1862.
To c. p. Bdid,oia, Z. s. Marshal:
Pay no attention to the habeas corpus for
the liberation OF Lyman, Barney and Field,
and if any attempt be made to liberate them
from custody, resist it to the utmost, and re-
port the names of all who may attempt it.
BY order of the Secretary of War.
l.. G. Turner,
Judge Advocate.
The Judge decided in substance, says the
Burlington Free Press, that whether the Pres
ident has the right to suspend the writ Of
habeas corpus without appealing to Congress
is question. In his (the Judge's) opinion
the President has that power, in eases of i'm.
portant military exigency, Judge Taney's
opinion to the contrary, notwithstanding bu
be that as it may, that the Secretary OF War
and his subordinates have no power to sus
pend the writ; that the return OF the Mar
shall IS not in compliance with the writ, anC
that unless within four hours the prisoners b,
produced in compliance with the order o
court, be should issue a further order re
curing the Marshal to show cause at IN,
next t. rm of the Circuit Court, on the Sd o
| October next, why an attachment shnl.ld no
issue against him tor contempt of Court.
he Marshal will, We understand, in ODE.
dience TO bis orders from Washington, decline
to produce the prisoners.

RUTLAND THURSDAY MORNING. SEP EMBER 4 1867

Since the firing of the first gun atSumpter l56
sturdy men have gone forth to the war for
three years, and longer if needed, and 40
nine months men. OF this number 65 have
been recruited since the middle of July. In
nearly every family in town, where one mem.
ber was subject to military duty, that one.is
in the army. Three families among us send
2 into the field. Several have given two or
three, being in many instances all they had
to offer. One School district with not m ore
than 90 families has furnished l6 men, all OF
them for three years or during the war. OF
The number in the service from here, 6 are
captains, whose names are as follows:
Hope, johnson, Perkins, Sheldon, Hyde
and Jennings ....
One isSurgeon W.A,Child, MD, and three
BrigadeSurgeons, recently connected with the
Medical College; Messrs A. Nj. Goldsmith, AL
len, and Plneo. Only six of our entire num-
Der have died thus far, four OF them were in
Co. B., Capt, Hope; two in the Poultney Co.
7th Regiment, and one breathed his last al
home among kindred and friends. To-mor
row "wednesday a company is to be formed
here Of quotas from the townss in this part o
the County. Their quaters are to be in thu
old Mansion House; their supplies to b

ond company organized in Castleton sine

THE FOREIGN HARvEsTs.-As we are
now reasonably sure of large surglus OF
breadstufs in this country, an important
question is, whether our surplus will fill a
foreign market, and on this subject we can
speak with some degree of assurance. The
American Agricuturist has just retarned
from trip through Great Bntian, France,
parts of Germany and Belgium, and reports
found the wheat harvest in progress on
the Continent. From what / saw, and from
the statement of many farmers, judge the
yield to be below the average. The large
area will in part make up the deficiency, but
not wholly. In Great Britain the weather
continued very wet up to the oath of July,
when change occurred, and from that time
up TO the 4th Of August, the wheat crop con
tinued to improve rapidly. But at the best
the damage to the growth by the wet wealth
or all through the early summer, cannot oe
repaired. 1t is morally certain, therefore
that Great Britain will require a consider
able amount of breadst, ifs from abroad
Much of this could probably be obtained from
the Continent at some figure, but not at the
prices for which it can be furnished by the
United States. My present opinion is, the
our surplus grain (unless unprecedent
laree) will mostly be taken at prices ID
will yield fair remuneration to IT, VINO
can farmers; but that very high Ame'
hardly be look ed for. The pr ssa, prices ci

There are $500 streets in London, which
if they were placed in a straight line, would
extend 5000 miles, or twice the distance from
Calais to Constantinople. If any person
should undertake to walk through all these
streets, and should go ten miles day each
working day, it would require whole year,
and meanwhile new city, with from 10000
to 10000 inhabitants, would be built. There
are more Scottish descendants in London
than in E iinburg; more Irish than are in
Doublin; 100000 more Romanists than in
Rome more Jews than in Palestine; 10000
Germans, or more than the population OF
Leipsic, and twice as many as Potsdam 30,-
900 French, or as ma ny as in Boulogne OF
Havre 5000 Italians, and large number Of
Asiatics, and many who still worship idols
A great missionary field is thus brought tc

There seems to be much misconception
as to the time fixed for putting into opera
ton the stamp duty on checks, sc. Some
bankers are under the impression that Mon
day, September 1st, is the day. This is a
mistake, as will be seen upon reference to the
act as finally passed. The closing legislation
ON the bill provides that September lst De
substituted for July and August, but as Octo-
Der lst was the day designated in the stamp
section, that section, of course, is in force as
originally passed-it is therefore, clear that
the duty on stamps goes into effect October
1st, and not September 1st, as ssome have
supposed.

QUOTA FROM RUTLAND COUNTY

QUOTA FROM RUTLAND COUNTY
1t appears from the order ofthe Adj .Gener-
al that a considerable number of men are vet
wanted to fill up the full quota OF Rutland
County for the niue months men, and that
but few days remain in which they an be
raised without resort to draft. These men
are located in the several towns OF the
county, and, as we understand, will be used
TO fill up old companies in different parts of
bo State, unless they voluntarily enlist in
some company now being raised.
The new company now being raised by
eome of the citizens Of this town, wants some
stveny men of being full, and they have had
assurances from the Governor and Adjutant
a1rneral that the several towns will be cred
itel on their quota for all the men that enlist
u his company. This is now the only com
tany being formed in this county, and this is
iheretore the last opportunity the men OF
ibis county will have OF eniisting in home
company. After this company is tull--the
fpsidue of the quota from Rutland County
hill be used TO fill up any COMPANY or COM
rants that may be deficient in numbers,with-
ont regard to its location. We trust that t1ar
iSelectmen of the severri towns-and olher
patriotic citizens OF the county will see to 1t,
that the company is full by Thursday night.

The New York Economist calculates
that the complete outfit Of a soldier rep
Iesents about twenty five pounds of raw
or manufactured wool, and that for
an army subjected to the wear and casu-
altes of war, the actual consumption of
woolen material is equivalent to about
sixty pounds of wool per annum per man.
