THE BURNED CITY.
The Chicago EIectiOus-Rebullding and
Reconstruction.

CHICAGO. November 5 Mayor Mason
has issued 3 proclamation recommending
that all places of business of every kind
be closed on election day, to the end that
there may be general suspension Of bus
mess on that day, In order to give all an
opportunity to vote. Samuel McMoore
has declined ths nomination for circuit

city attorney on the tempersnce ticket. F.
Gund. Yesterday morning. announced his
deolinstion of the nom nation for police
commissioner on the Union ticket No. 2.
but in the evening he reeonsidered his &C.
ton. and announced his determination to
stand.
The Tribune this evening says there are
good reasons for believing that a ring has
been formed for making several millions
bv locating new government buildings In
this city-post Office, custom house, court
rooms, etc ---wbere the members of the
ring hsye secured options on q large
amount of real estate. 4 prominent poll
tician, whose wsll-known business quail
fications hsve become proverbisl, together
with the members of a prominent dry
goods Arm, are understood to be the
prime movers. The properly the ring have
procured includes the site Of the former
ess works, on Adams street, near the
river.
1T is understood that the board of pub
lie works have about decided that the
new court house shall cover the court
house squsre, extending to the side
walk around the entire block. This
will. as a financial operation, be of
great advantage to the city and
county, SIS it will give them about sixty
stores. which would rent for at least one
hundred Thousand per snnum besides a
large number of lawyers offices in the
upper stories. which would bring, at least,
ff5y thousand dollars more annually into
the treasury. It Is asserted now. that If
the efforts now making to secure the three
blocks of ground on Lake Shore for pas
senger station prove unavsilinR. the Chi
esgo, Burlington and Quincy railroad will
erect passenger station Of their own on
Sixteenth street near the south branch of
the river. and that the Michigan Central
railroad will run their trains to the same
station, their present depot grounds being
entirely insdequate.

Brigham arrived here this morning. snd
after resting about five hours, left for st
George, on the southern border of the ter
ritory. He was escorted by twelve
mounted men belonging to the Nsuvoo
legion. I am told that he has hidden q
final sdieu TO Salt Lake city. This move
ment of Brother Brigham is greatly sgi-
tsting the minds cf the people herssbouts.
The Mormon press have made no response
tn the published fact that pnlygsmy in
Utah was utterly dissvowed and con-
demned by the elders until six months
sfter passsge of the territorial act against
aiultry, lasciviOus cohshltiOn. The act
was approved March 6, 1852 The revles
ton Of polygBmv Is said to have been

completed the charge that the United

a verdict under that act against pOlyg-
smisst, on the ground that the act was
passed by q polygsmous legislature, and,
hence, the interest was not TO punish
polygamist. Hon. Sam Fitch left yes.
