wheat has sometimes been more for

Last week was favorable for planting
corn, and the time was we'll improved

THE NEW ORLEANS RIOT.
Report of the Military Commits
sfOn-Tribune's Account.

New YORK, Sept. 6.-'The Tribune has
the following, dated New Orleans, Sept 5.
The military commission organized to
Investigate the circumstances connected
with the late massacre, have completed
their labors and handed in their report to
Gen. Sheridan at noon to-day. The report
covers over eleven hundred pages of closely
written manuscript, and proves conclusive
ly that the massacre was precOncerted and
prearranged by Mayor Monroe and others.
The members of the fire department and
the different sections of rebel military Or
ganizations which exist in this city, ap-
peared on the ground at a given signal,
armed to the teeth, and assisted the police
in their hellish task of numbering unarmed
and defenseless Union men. Over one hun
dred and fifty Trustworthy witnesses have
been examined, and the evidence corrob-
orative of the above statement is incontro-
vertible.
Evidence was also taken in reference to
the composition of the rebel grand jury,
and the following facts ELECTED: The jury
box should be filed with names from the
registry of voters. From these names l25
were drawn, from which the Sheriff and
the Clerk of the Criminal Court select l6
under the direction of the judge, as grand
Jurors. On the registry there are nearly
as many names of Union as COnfederates,
but Notwithstanding every one OF the jury
selected were notorious rebels, with a rebel
Colonel as foreman; one is member of the
Legislature, and therefore exempt, two or
three were members of the last grand jury,
therefore their names could not lawfully be
in the jury box at this time, while two
others were not registered voters, and
therefore legally incapacitated from serving
on grand jury. r-IrFr .. r-n
In the reorganizingof the white schools
inthis city, which has lately taken place,
many of the lady teachers who are known
as Unionists were discharged, and good
rebels are appointed in their place.
Leading Union men OF New Orleans are
dissatisfied because no action has been taken
on the complaint sworn to by them on the
fifth of August, before the United States
Commissioner, charging Lieut.. Governor
Voorhees,, Mayor Monroe and the police
with disorder, and asking for their arrest
under the Civil Rights bill and military
ORDERS The complaint was referred by the
Commissioner to Major General Sheridan.
They are preparing a similar document to
be signed and sworn to by large number,
with the purpose of presenting it to higher
military authority.

NEW Y YoRK, Sept. 6.-The case of Elisha
Ruckman, on trial in the Bergen County
Circuit Court of New Jersey, for cattle
poisoning, was concluded yesterday. The
jury rendered verdict of guilty.
Major General Nelson A. Miles has been
relieved from the command of the District
of Fortress Monroe, and Brigadier General
III. S. Barton, Colonel of the 9th U. S. artil-
lery, garrisoning the fortress, assumes the
command of the District and the custodi-
anship of JEFF. Davis.
The last dates from Havana report mod
itication of the twenty days quarantine
regulations. The Eagle had been released
after a delay OF eight days, and vessels with
clean bills will be put in observation only.
The demolition of the old city walls is GO
ing on rapidly. They are of no imaginable
utility, and the ground occupied by them
isof much value to the city.
"A rumor comes from San Francisco that
sixty men, under command of Col. George
S. Knox, formerly on Gen. Hooker's staff,
left that city for Mexico recently to join the
Liberals.

surrender before their arrogant demands.
1t has corrupted high State officials elected
by Union men and sworn to enforce the
laws against returned rebels, and made
them the merest instruments of the authors
of the rebellion. 1t has encouraged new
alienation between the sections, and
by impeding emigration to the
South has erected formidable barrier
against free and friendly intercourse in the
North and West. 1t has allowed the rebel
soldiery to persecute the teachers of the
colored schools, and to burn the churches
in, which the freedmen have worshiped the
living God. That q system so barbarOus
should have eliminated In the frightful
riet of Memphis, and the still more appall-
ing massacre of New Orleans, was as nat
ural as that bloody war should flow from
the teachings Of John G. Calhoun and JEFF
fersOn Davis.
