New BUILDINGS IN CHICAGO. The
Journal says it is estimated, by compe-
tent judges, that the number of new
buildings erected in Chicago during the
present year viii reach over 1000, at a
cost of from s., 900, 600 to $4,000, OOO.-
The number would have been much lar
ger but for the EIGHT hour strike last
spring, by which many contemplated con-
tracts were deferred, owing to the uncer-
tainties of labor.

IMPORTANT MOVEMENT BY SoUTnERNERs.-
Important official information has been re-
ceived here that judicial steps have been ia
ken in Gen. Pope's district to secure the
right Of suffrage by virture of the recent
amnesty proclamation !; several citizens Of
Alabama who have been pardoned by this
proclamation have been before the boards Of
registration, which are now revising the lists
and demand to be registered. Gen Pope
instructed the boards to refuse to register
them, and they we're refused. Hon. S. F..
Rice, of Montgomery, an ex.judge Of Ala
bama, who was one of these parties, went
before the U. S. Commissioner, and made
affidavit of the fact, with view Of testing
in the United States courts the constitution
atty Of the military reconstruction laws, and
the powers conferred by an executive pardon.
Similar movements will be made in all of
the Southern States where registration is not
closed and if legal redress fails before

THE TRIAL OF Mr.. DAyIs.-A telegram
from Washington to Benefits Herald says
''The opinion is expressed that, allowing
Davis will appear. the trial will be shirked
by the government, and the prisoner will
again be set at liberty on bail. There is
reason, however, to contradict such an erron-
eous impression. Indications lead to the be-
lief that the trial will be proceeded with and
mass Of the most important events connec-
ted with the history Of the rebellion disclosed.
The counsel for defence will demand trial,
and if the Government urge as an excuse
mot ready the court will express its inten-
ton to remain in session a sufficient time to
prepare; falling in this, nolze proscqui will
then be entered, by which the discharge Of
the prisoner may be effected. The latter is
not likely, and the trial, which the nation at
large demands, will be proceeded with. Da-
vis can scarcely be convicted. With Chase
on the bench, and Davis in the prisoners box,
and the right Of secession in question, dra-
ma Of great national interest will be present
ed, in which the principal actors viii have to
study we'll their parts. F"

The Habeas Corpus in Pennsylvania.

Our readers are aware that the writ of hd-
beas corpus has been disregarded by the
United States authorities in Philadelphia. -
The Court Of Quarter Sessions there served
writ On Commodore SELFRIDGE (comman-
ding the navy yard), ordering him to pro-
duce the body Of a person claimed to BELLE
gally in the service Of the Government. The
writ was not obeyed, and it is understood
that the Commodore refused to obey it, un-
der the direction Of the Secretary of the Ma
Wy.
It is amusing to see the indignation with
which. this act of the Government is regar-
ded by the northern leaders Of the Radical
party which has subjected the South to the
government Of military chieftains, who are
authorized to set aside law and to take pos
session Of us and dispose of us as they may
deem proper, even to the extreme Of taking
our lives The New York Tribune is out
ragged, and fatty declares that ''the suspen-
sion Of the act Of habeas corpus by the Sec
rotary Of the Navy is not a question to be
argued 1t IS an act Of assumption to be de-
nounced" Exactly; but why not extend
this view Of the right and liberty of the citi-
zen to the southern States? The great u.
n" contends that much confusion in the
economy Of life grows out of the fact that per-
sons view events from different 'standr
ppoo;;ssss." This is the misfortune here. 81
Now, if Mr.. GREELEY lived in the South,
or, living in the North, were not blinded by
the perversions and passions of fanatical rad
icalism, he would see that the Constitution
does not permit the suspension of the writ Of
ha5eas corpus in any part of the territory Of
the United States in time Of peace. The
President, whose eyes are not covered with
the horrid scales of radicalisn, sees this, and
is probably not sorry Of the opportunity to
bring the question in direct and irresistible
manner before the northern people. They
have the tyranny Of the Federal power
brought to their own door. And the manner
in which they complain oft is but an addition
al illustration that the hardest thing in this
world is for men to do unto others as they
would they should do unto them. The bit
ter cup Of absolute power-in a phase the
most degrading to those subjected to it's
handed to us to be drained to the very dregs f.;
but when even sip of it is commended to
the lips of those who brewed it, they'll none
of it. The suspension Of the writ of habe-
as corpus is not a question to be argued i;
1t is an oct Of rsupation to be denounced"
Most truly spoken-most distinguished Rad
ical !-Riczn1ond Dispatch.

GENERAL BRECK1NRIDGE's LAST OFFICIAL

letter from Paris: al
"John G. Breckenridge at a aJeuner yes

Secretary Of War It was on the coast OF
Florida; the General was pursued by the
Federal cavalry; they were beating the
countryin every direction; 'friendsin need

gallant old regiment ofsthe Army Of North

old boat here that mout carry us to Kurby !;
ANYHOW, we'll try it on So he worked
away all that night raising the boat from
where he had sunk it to- conceal 1t from
prowling Yankees he worked faithfully and
theoretically in patching itup and ballingssit,
artifcially finishing it up and putting in a
few provisions. General Breckenridge grasped
the noble fellow by the hand and said to him:
i will have but few more hours Of authorl-
ty, but such services as you have rendered
your country deserve reward. \ on shall be
major. I will make out your commission
now He was exceedingly thankful, but
remained scratching his head in. thought

General. We'll. you see, Gineral, thar's a
Teller in our regiment what hain't done no
thin, and he is a major and quartermas-
ter, and if it's all the same to you, would
lust like to rank him for onst.' It is need
less to say that the going out Secretary Of
War instantly wrote the, battle-scarred but
humble hero commission as lieutenant-col-
onel. A fact" 81

The Department of Agriculture furnishes
statistics of the crops up to the latest advi-
ces. The returns from the different States
of the yield of wheat, whilst they indicate in
some sections smaller product than was an
ticipated, show at the same time large in
crease as compared with the previous year.
The corn crop it is thought does not promise
80 well, generally, but if frost holds off it is
believed that the general crop will lie a fair
one. The cotton crop has cx perienced seri-

The conservative people Of our State seem
to have been seized with an apathy which
can but result badly to ALL They are re-
CARELESS, seemingly, of their most important
interests and disposed to let matters drift as
they will The Radicals are.making known
their candidates for the Convention and urg-
ing their sympathisers to an active support
of them, while the Conservatives are idly
holding their hands This is suicidal, if a
Convention should be called Every con-
servative should be in that Convention who
can by any possibility be sent there. Then
arouse ye conservatives Of Virginia. Select
and announce your candidates and be active
in your endeavors to elect them, and thus
defeat the Vaccinations Of Hunnicutt and his
ilk or you will regret your supincness as long
as you live.

We cndeavored in our last to impress w

We cndeavored in our last to impress up
on our people the necessity Of unity Of action
in the selection Of delegates to the Conven-
ton, should it be called, and we again urge
it upon them No matter whether favoring
or opposed to the Convention. it is the in
'cumbent duty Of each one of us to vote for
delegates. tits equally incumbent upon US
(, unite in support of the same men. For,
without some concert of action On the part
of conservatives in the selection of suitable
persons as delegates, each section of our
county may support some local favorite ard
the result be the election of a radical repre-
sentation from s'Old Augusta" This may
seem improbable to some, yet we tell them
it is probable if there be division in the
conservative vote Of the county. We know
of the formation Of one "Union League in
this place and doubt not that others have
been formed in the county. The object Of
this organization is to carry the elections by
solid and united vote. This all under
stand, yet no concert Of action is taken by
those well-meaning citizens who could but
deplore such result.
This county will send a conservative dele
cation by a large majority if proper action
be taken. Then let us take this action
Let as assemble at our Court Hoase, from
every portion of our county, and, forgetting
local favorites and old political confreres,
unite in selecting suitable candidates to rep
resent us in the Convention. Having selec-
ted them, let US unite in their support and
sh-s ensure their election. The time is
growing short and delayis dangerous. -
With the sole purpose Of uniting our people
in support of good men, to be selected by
themselves, we respectfully suggest to them
to meet in this place on Saturday the 18th
inst. to select such men to represent us in
the Convention, should the voters of Vir-
ginia favor its CALL We suggest the above
mentioned day as the latest day, before the
election, on which our people could meet
and have their action generally known in
the county, and trust our suggestions may
meet with concerdant feeling among our
county people and that a large representa-
ton from every portion Of the county will be
present to aid in selecting competent and in
every way suitable men, loEs y yhom we can
cast an united vote.
