Trial of the Chicago Conspirators.
A military commission has been en-.
gagged in Cincinnati for many days past,
investigating the character and tenden,
cy of certain alleged conspiracios exist
ing at Chicago and other places to re-
sist the authority of the United States
Government. These reasonable COM
binations have been known at different
times as the "Order of American
Knights"--aud when their purposes
and plans were exposed, and the Order
thereby brought into disrepute, they
look a new name, as "SOns of Liberty"
and modified their formularies to adapt
thom to the new organization. or
this Order, under ono of its nam es, the
rcdoubtable Clement L. Vallandighsm
held the position of Supreme GrsRd
Commander. One day this week, he
was before the Commission in Cincin-
natl, as witness; and so far as his
testimony goes, proved himself iuno-
cent as a babe Of all sinister, disloyal,
or unworthy purposes, as connected
with that organization, So very inno-
cent, that he hardly knew whether he
really belonged to it, or not, though he
had some indistinct recollection of the
matter having been brought to him dur
ing his temporary sojourn in Canada
Though holding the post of Chief in
command, he was not clear that he had
ever been present at regular meeting
of the Order. ..... 81. da. 80
After Mr.. Vallundigham, the Commis-
sion had before it on the witness stand,
Mr.. James A. McMaster, editor of the
Freeman's Journal, (su organ of these
or ders,) and "Grand Commander OF
New York" This witness had devoted
considerable time in disseminating the
order, and looking after its interests in
New York, Indiana, Illinois, and else.
where and though not so unknowiug
is very nearly as innocent as st. Olem-
ent.- himself. 4The ideA of resisting
dsurps tion, and the like" he says
"was in the old ritual" Yet he pro.
ccods to testify that neither the Sons
of Liberty nor the American Knights,
lever contemplated resistance to the
authority of the United States, On
the contrary, one of the'eTpfcsS things
wss instructed in was, that the OBJ
ject was to pvt a stop TO shooting ProvOst
Marshals and resistance ofthe drqfl y
How strange l--how passing strange
that the object Of the organization
should have been so sadly misinterpret,
ed by the thousands Of individuals 10
veigled into its EN- brace, and who through
it's teachings were induced to purchase
arms, and hold stated midnight meet
ings for drill in military exercises and
evOl utiOns, all exclusively by themselves
and in profound secrecy from the com.
mon public Strange
Testifying as to the oath administered
to the Nom bers, he says, for himself he
"spurned it, and regarded it as an in,
suit" But when questioned as to how
it would be regarded, and its probable
effect, with men of less intelligence

THE NEWS

THE r1crrN0ND AND PETERSBURG LINES
Since the salutes fired by tho Yankees
on the God, the sound of big guns has
not been heard on the north side Of the
lanes. At Petersburg, tho national sa-
lute was fired by Grants artillery with
shottcd guns, some of the shells falling
n the city. On this side, as we have
before stated, they contcntcd themselves
with letting off blank cartridges.
For several days past there has been
50 much stir within The enemy's lines
south Of Petersburg as to give rise to
the report that they were concentrating
for another attack on our extreme right.
As. however, no attack has been made,
il is probable the commotioH observed
was incidental to the removal of part
Of the Yankee army to City Point, en-
roifc to co operate with Schofcld and
Sherman in the Carolinas. IL any Of
(ensye movement against the Peters
burg lines was contemplated by Grant,
It'll as been indefinitely postponed by the
drcnchins rain of yesterday, which has
converted Eastern Virginia into one vast
quagmire.
FROM TIE SOUTH.
The city was, yesterday, filled with
-,
in North and South Carolina; but VIC
have no official intelligence from that
quarter. We, however, know that af-
fairs in that quarter are alrcauy begin
ming to wear more pleasing aspect.
General Joseph E. Johnston was, on
Wednesday, ordered to report to General
Lee; and it is the general opinion tina!
he has been assigned to the command Of
all the forces operating against Sherman
1t has been rumor for some days tina!
General Bcaurcgard had asked to be re
lieved on account Of i'll health. Genera
Johnston had been with General Beau
regard since our troops fell back from
the line OF the EdiSto.

THE CARDs roR ACCOMPLISHMENTS
rloS BALL. - The Washington papers
publish description Of the cards Of ad-
mission to the Inauguration ball, to take
place in Washington on the 9Th proximo.
The olive branch, it seems, has been
omitted from Lincoln's Administration
in order that it may figure prominently
in bis ball cards:
"The caption consists Of the words:
National Inauguration Ball, March 1,
1865 Beneath this arc rnedallions in
terlaccd pinncd together with a staff
surrounded with liberty cap) and
edged with olive branches. Upon one
of the mcdallions is an excellent por-
traiturc of the President, and upon the
other that of the Vicc~President elect,
inscribed at the bottom Of each respect
ivelv with the name of their office: and
beneath the medallions is a scroll, en-
twincd about the staff, upon which are
inscribed the names Of Abraham Lincoln
and Andrew johnson. In the centre of
the card below is the blank form of in
vitation, and the list of managers SUBJ
scribed thereto.
upon either side of the centre piece
are two pillars standing upon base of
three steps. The base represents stone,
and the three steps are intended to re-
present the three great struggles of our
nation for existence: the Revolution, the
lower one, inscribed with the figures
I777>S3 -; the war with Great Britain,
'1S12-l5' and the present war, 1860
65.' Upon these steps arc granite pc
dcstals of rough rock, upon which arc
erected columns of Jasces, strongly bound
together with cords, representing the
columns of the masses of the people
supporting the government of the coun-
try. The right-hand column IS SUR
mounted by the American eagle, destroy
ing serpent. The National pendant is
entwined about this shaft. Upon the
other column is also an eagle, grasping
in her talons the usual insignia of the
arrows and the olive branch. About
this column is entwined scroll inscribed
with the National motto, e PlnTidus
Unum,' and also the words, 'We are
one and indissolublc.'
We understand that the engraving has
been accepted, and that the cards arc
now being printed. We also learn that
| one of them was shown at Mrs. Lincoln's
reception yesterday afternoon, and eli

NEGRO SOLDIERS-IHE QUES-
TON DISPOSED OF,


The Confederate Senate, on yesterday,
removed the injunction Of secrecy from
the proceedings on the Senate bill, in
,roduced by Mr.. Brown, Of Mississippi,
to provide for raising two hundred thou
sand negro troops. 1t appears that the
bill was lost in the Senate on Tuesday,
the Dist instant, by a vote of eleven to
ten. Those who voted for an indefinite
yostponcment of the bill-which
amounts to it's defeat-were Messrs.
Baker, Barnwell, Capcrton, Garland,
Graham, Hunter, johnson Of Georgia,
Johnson of Missouri, Maxwell, Orr and
WigialI
Those who voted in the negative were
Messrs. Brown, Burnett, Haynes, Henry,
oldham, Scmmcs, Simms, Vest, Walker
and Watson.
In official circles, this is considered as
disposing Of the question Of putting ne
gro soldiers into our armies finally. The
House negro soldier bill, which is very
similar to the Senate bill, has not been,
and it is now believed will not be, acted
upon by the Senate.
