NEw YORK, Sept. 1.-THE Herald's
Richmond correspo pond emit says:
The order for revolving the pardon of
Mr.. Dudley, President of the York
River Railroad, enanated from Presi-
dent johnson himself, in consequence
IQf Mr.. Dudley, subsequent to receiving
Ithe Executive clemency, having in
dulged in strong disloyn1 Language.
It is said that certain Virginia banks
have been receiving rebel money up
| liabilities due them.i
The Herald's Fortress Monroe CORES
lpOndent says:
The military authority has just
had Il conversation with jeff. Davis,
wherein the latter, among other things
he had to say, disclaimed any acqunint-
ance with the notorious Captain WirZ,
ment to which our prisoners Mt Ander-
sonyille were subjected. .,
The above item is unfounded in truth,
Except General Miles and the officers
on guard duty, no officers had any cons
Yersation with JEFF. Davis, or been al
lowed TO visit him. Ono of President
Johnson'S sons Ind n long interview
with him a few days since, and he is
the only civilian to whom this privilege
has been conceded: and his cOnVersN
ton was limited to general inquiries as
to his health,
The Herald's Washington special
SAYS it is understood that Nirz to-day,
3lst, placed in the hands of his counsel
Yoluminous documentary evidence to
prove that in establishing tho dead line
within the Andersonville prison yard
and shooting prisoners who crossed he,
in the first instance, acted under the
direct orders of the rebel Gen. Winder,
and more latterly by the emphatic or
ders of J. A. Seldom, the rebel Secre-
tary of War. 5Ig5q III ~
The Commission now trying Wirz
have decided to reject the Testimony of
Sergt. Boston Corbett, Which appeared
in the record of the Court two days this
week, on the ground that he is n mono
maniac upon the subject of the Ander-
sonville cruelties. aFtGs Il
Mr.. Kennedy, late of the Census Blu
reau, is conditionallX offered th8 Presi-
.dency of the o. S. Telegraph Company,
at a salary of 1000 per annum.
The Times Washington special says
both the President and the Secretary of
War are decidedly III favor of trial
by civil court, and Mt the earliest possi-I
bic moment, of JEFF: Davis. The chief
difficulty has been to find a proper tri-
bunal.
The President looks with favor upon
Knoxville, Tenn, where Davis COM
fnitted an overt act of treason by inci-l
ting insurreotiOh i'll a speech 10 his
army. In case he is tried before Chief
selected. This is what Davis friends
DESIRE faitH
The statement that the grand jury of
this District found bin against Davis
for constructive treason does injustice
to the intelligence of that jury and the
legal mind that drew the bill. The In
dictfnent wastfor an overt act. ai't
1t may be further said that whenever
and wherever the trial does take place,
Gen. Butler, in continuation with tic
Attorney General, Will take a. promiu
nent part as public prosecutor. The
wholematter has been under considers
fltion at a recent Cabinet meeting, where
the question of mode and place was so
far decided as TO believe the trial an
event near at hand.
The income receipts to-day are far
ahead ofthose of my other day. They
amount to g, 49, Ill 81, whichis 100000
ahead of any former days work. The
entire receipts for July and August
amount to $55, 7S1, O09 "a, and there is
reason to believe that this sum will be
increased to $50, OO0, 600 by the first Of
October.
