RECONSTRUCTHON.

LouIsIANA.-Gen. Buchanan has assumed
command of the Fifth Military District Judge
Emerson, of the Third District Court Louisi.
ana, has decided that the signature of Gov.
Flanders TO an act passed by the Legislature,
while Wells was Governor, and not signed BY
Wells, Is constitutional approval by the Ex-
ecutive, and the act is law.
VIRGINIA.-In the Convention yesterday a
proposition to dsfranchise all who voted for
secession candidates, &c, was defeated by a
vote Of 81 TO 81. Another proposition to dis.
franchise all who were secession candidates, or
who spoke or wrote for the rebellion, was de-
feated-a2 to 49, and the subject OF further dis.
reimbursement was indefinitely postponed

considerable and speedy cheapening Of many

THE CHEsAPEAKE AND ONO CANAL

The CHEsAPEAKE AND ONO CANAL.-This
tIoportant work will be opened to naviga-
tion next week, and the indications are the
coal trade will be very heavy during the sea-
son. We noticed a short time since the action
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
IN reducing the tolls on coal, thus bringing that
line in closer competition with the Chesapeake
and Ohio canal. We see that the directors of
the canal have taken mp the gage, and AT their
meeting in Annapolis yesterday reduced the
tolls on coal from Cumberland to GEORGETOWN
from sixty-nine cents to forty-six cents per
ton. This is very considerable reduction,
and its effect will PROBABLY be to so increase the
trade, a. 10 give both Alexandria and George
town all they can do. with present facilities in
storing and shipping the black diamonds. Mr..
Benjamin Fawcett, of Montgomery county,
was elected Secretary and Treasurer of the
Canal Company. Mr.. Fawcett has served for
many years IN the Maryland Legislature and
10 widely known a. an energetic and intelligent
business man.

ANOTHER STEP towards relieving the 10 er
CLASSES from the degrading effect, of some OF
their governmental customs is about TO he
made in England. A bill doing away with
public executions, and providing that all
hangings TOR murder shall take place within
prison walls, has passed Its second reading in
the House OF Commons. The two arguments
IN favor Of public inniction of the death pen.
atty have always been the impressiyeness and
