The) Election at Chattanooga A Flag Captured from the Conservative by Radicals at Kingston. Chattanooga, Tenn., August 2. All the ne cessary preparations were made by the city authorities yesterday to preserve the peace. The olls opened at 8 o'clock, and the colored ieapcue, organized en masse, formed in column at the polllne place, till noon, when six hun dred and eighty-nine votes had been cast, and nearly all the negroes had voted. Certificates were furnished by the League to many negroes from Georgia, who voted the radical ticket. The negro vote was cast solid for the radicals. The Metropolitan Police distributed radical tickets to negroes. The straight radical tickets were stamped with u broadase. meaning that the axe is laid at the root of the tree. This was done to prevent counterfeiting, and lor the benefit ol such negroes as could not read. The utmost order and good feeling prevailed all day and night, and there was no intoxica tion. The whites who were not radicals held no conversation with the negroes, but let them have their own way. The whole number of votes cast in the city is 925. Brownlow received 820, Eiheridge 96, .Stokes 822, Fleming (independent) 39. The whole radical ticket Is elected by an over whelming majority. Brownlow's majority in the county is estimated at 1225. Stokes is re elected to CoDgress In the Third District. Ktheridge and Maynard spoke at Kingston on Wednesday. Colonel Byrd, a conservative, had the flag of his old regiment, the 1st Tennessee Infantry, on the stand while Etheridge was speaking. After the speaking was done the radicals captured the flag tor their stand. The conservatives formed to charge and retake the flair, but were prevented by Ether'tdge. No other disturbance took place. All was quiet at last accounts, but the flag has not yet been re turned. VIRGINIA.

Compromise Between the Ironmasters and Ironworkers What Has Been Lost by the Btrlke Kffect on the Business of Pittsburg, From the FUUburg (Tenn.) Commercial, August Tbe great lockout, as it is now generally termed, which has since the 12th of January last closed, or nearly closed, our rolling mills, is now regarded by all parties concerned as at an end. The ironworkers generally appear to be satisfied with the compromise, and express their intention of observing it. The suspension ot labor has been one of the most extensive that has ever occurred in this locality, and the effects have been felt by all classes of society. It was rumored, in De cember, 1866, that on the 15th of the following January tbe various iron mills in the city and vicinity would suspend bnsiness on account of a difficulty about wages. Hie proprietors of the rolling mills had notified their puddlersthat tbe wages they were paying would have to be re duced, as they could no longer give $9 per ton. The workingmen iefued to submit to auy re duction, and a strike, or lockout, as it is now called, was the result. On Monday, December 10, tbe rolling null of Jones k Lougli lin, Brownstown, which had been paving $9 per ton for a week, stopped. Saturday, Jan uary 12, the Dnquesne Iron Works and the rolling mill of Zug & Co., in the Fifth Ward, stopped. Nearly all the mills in tbe vicinity aUo stopped at this time. The only mills that continued in operation were the following: Lyon, Shorb & Co., Monongahela Borough; Hutchinson, Glass & Co., Soiio Run; Gregs's mills, Four Mile Run; and the mills ot Ilussey, Wells & Co., Fifth Ward. These mills con tlnued to run all winter. On Mondav, April 1, several ot the mills commenced running a few furnaces, paying $9 per ton. Affairs remained In this state, with no immediate prospects of a settlement, until a caru appeared, April w, from Messrs. Zug A Co., of the Sable Works, stating that they would hand over their mill one year to any responsible party, on the condition that the mill khould be run to the extent of its capacity, aud the party should pay over to them, as their share of tbe profits, the average diflerence between the prices then demanded in Pittsburg, and those then paid over in Eastern Pennsylvania, New York, New England, and New Jersey.- This proposition was not accepted. At this time several of the mills were running partially, and there were not so many men out ot employment as during the winter. Tne mill of Jones & Laugblin started April 30, and has been running ever since. Zug k Co. also started the first of May. The Duquesne Iron Works also commenced running. These establish ments, however, still claimed that they could not afford to pay the priccB asked, and did not ron tbe full number ot furnaces. Ou Saturday morning, June 22, a train of cars direct from New York arrived at the Dnion Depot, containing over two hundred iron workers from Germany. These were put at work in some ot the mills, and considerable excitcmeut was the result. In the early part of last week a committee from the Iron Masters' Association, and a com mittee from the Iron Workers' Association, met and agreed upon a compromise, which was sub- nnucu to lue lust uienuuueu uuuy uu aui.uiu'vy evening last, and ratified by tbem. This com promise allows (he boilers nine dollars ocr ton until the 17th of the present month. After that they submit to a reduction ot one aouar per ton. with an agreement that a f urther reduction shall take place in case the price of iron decreases. This arrangement seems to be accepted by all parties as final, and in a few weeks the mills win undoubtedly De running to tneir iuu capacity. The number or men out or employment juarcn 1 was estimated to be as follows: Puddlers, 700; helpers, nail laborers, and others dependent on the work of the puddlers for support. 3000; miners on the south side of tbe Monongahela, on the Youehiogheny and the Pennsylvania Railroad, 1000; Iron moulders, 360; laborers de pendent on tneir work: for employment, louu; glass-blowers, 300; laborers dependent on them lor work. 700. This makes the total number of men out of employment at that time 7000. An ave rage ot f i per day for these men would be a low estimate at tbe prices paid at the time of the strike; at this rate, from January 1 to March 31, the wages paid would have been about $1,302,000. At this time some of the mills start ing furnished part of the men with work. Allowing 6000 to have been out of employment since that time, and to remain so until the new arrangement goes into effect, and their wages at the same rate would amount to $1,680,000. Tbe total amount of money, had the mills not stood idle, that would have been paid out, therefore, is $2,982,000. This estimate, perhaps, will not cover half tbe loss which our city has sustained by the lockout. Callfornlane at the Siege of Q,ueretaro. From the San Franeiteo AUa Oaliornian.

The following letter from Colonel Green to his brother in this city shows that the old Califor nians were in the thickest of the fight, and trtves some interesting particulars of the fall of Maximilian: QuEBXTAKO,Mayls-4P. M.-Dear Brother-It is with pleasure that I write to lot you know that the lone war Is over. This morning at o'clock we at tacked the place In force, and at 8 o'clock we had oc cupied the princliwl positions. It was quite cheering to us alter hay lug been tin the outside lor seventy dayi. We bad hardly taken otT our clothes duriug the whole siege, aa Maximilian's force was nearly equal to our own. and we were compelled to he on the waich day and night; but we have had our reward. My small command, with sixty American oliicers, which composes the Legion of Honor, captured the Carlotla Keglraeut of Cavalry. SCO Htrong, with 8f pin cers, among them several cblets.

I learn to-night that it is contemplated to Institute Criminal nrrwooil. ings against the President and Cashier of the Unadllla Bank, on the ground that the failure of the bank is alleged to be a preconcerted swin dle, though 1 imagine this will be hard to prove.

SECOND EDITION IMPORTANT FROM WASHINGTON. General Grant Opposes the Removal of Generals Sheridan and Pope. (SPKCUL DESPATCH TO THE EVENING TELEGRAPH, Washington, August 3. General Grant has been in constant consultation with the President for several hours, both yester day and to-day. It is said that a grave controversy has been indulged in. Gene ral Grant is reported to have expressed he opinion that the President would overstep his power In removing General Sheridan Tinder the recent act of Congress. This opinion is based upon a thorongh examination of the whole subject made by Major General John A. Rawlings, Chief of Staff, and an able constitutional lawyer, and Chief Justice Chose. Under the influence of General Grant's reason ing on this point, the Presidcnt.delays his order removing Sheridan and appointing Hancock to succeed him. The affair will probably remain in statu gtouLtil the return of Attorney-General Slan bery. These reports create much talk here, aud fears of a collision between Grant and the Pre sident are visible. Scarcity of Naval Seamen. 1 The Navy Department is much embarrassed by the dilliculty of obtaining the proper propor tion of trained seamen required lor vessels In tended for the relief of those now serving on foreicn stations. The Minnesota, a noble fri gate, has been detained at New York nearly a month on this account, blie has her lull com plement of marines, firemen, and landsmen; but is, or was, deficient in seamen, the frigates Franklin and Guerriere having exhausted the supply of tbe receiving ships. Upton vs. Casey, et al. It is reported here, among military men, that General Casey, author or compiler of the "In fantry Tactics" now emploved in the army and marine corp, and his publisher are exerting all their influence to prevent the adoption of the new tactics of Brevet Major-General Upton, which have been recommended by two Army Boards as superior to those bearing Casey's name. The President of the last Board, which met at West Point on the 9th ultimo, was Gene ral Grant, who is said to favor the change. TRIAL OF JOHN 27. S URRA TT. Washington, August 8. The trial of John H. Bur rati was resumed this morning In tbe Criminal Court, Judge Fisher predicting. Mr. Plerrepont addressed the lurv on behalf of the proBecntlon, and said be had not yei bad an opportu nity to address the Jury, but his time bad now come. "Yea, all that a man bath will he give tor bis life.'' mis is as true lo-oay as it wus id tue aays or Job, and to secure Hie he will give op bis liberty, resort to any measures, give up home auu friends, desert lather and mother, sister and brolber, and be will even commit perjury, aud "Jump the 1 He that Is to come, to save the life that now is." Just so far as thee luuiel feels In terested In a rase. Just so far will they be.ome imbued With the feelings or their client. Mr. Plerrepont then referred to tbe fact that, while tbe otber counsel k new t tie Jurors, be was a compara tive stranger, but be did nut feel: altogether like a stranger, and If he met tbem in his own city, or else where, be could meet them as irlends. He had come Into this case at no little personal sac rid e, lor wlieu the case commenced he had Just taken bis seat In the New York Constitutional Convention, which was now In session. He explained how became Into tbe case noon tbe request ot the Altoruey-Ueneral and the decretory of Btate, and be averred that no otber member of the Cabinet knew of his retainer until be came on here and entered Into tbe case. Wben Mr. Lincoln was assassinated he (M r. Plerrepont) was sent bere by a committee of New York citizens to attend bis funeral, land wben standing in the East Room, and bis tears were tailing freely, be would have considered blmaell derelict to duty If be had not at that time resented any lnstilt coming from sd enemy of his country, lie lelt this was as solemn a scene as at tbe fuueral, and he would Indulge now In no petty quarrels. In pursuing this argument, be would not cast any vituperation or abuse upon tbe firtsoner. Be did not know John U. Burratt except bat we were to try blm as one of the assassins ot tbe President. In commenting on tbe evidence be would make no Individual assertion, but bis busluess was to convince tbe Jury tbat the accused was guilty. If he did that he expected a verdict of guilty. If be did not so con vince ihem, be neither wanted nor expected a verdlot. He was here for tbe purpose of showing thatSurratt was a member ot a conspiracy that resulted In the death of Abraham Lincoln by tbe band of John 'Wilkes Booth. He did not see why Mrs. Burratt's name should be brought la. Bts) Continued in ourncxt edition.) FROM SAN FRANCISCO.

FINANCE AND COMMERCE. OrncB or thb Kveniks TrxiteBArH, Saturday, August 3, ltu7, The Board of Brokers held but one session to-day, and the business is consequently very lipht. The inclement weather was another addi tion to tbe many causes at work to keep the maiket In its present depressed condition. Gov ernment stocks Bhow some light improvement. The 8mes of 1881 were quoted at HOi bid, and uug ttsgen; coupon r lve-tweutios at 112 Did, and 112 asked: Ten-forties at 102J1024; and Seven thirties at 1074108. In State Loans there were no transactions re ported. For the second series 1024 was bid; and for the third, 102$. The coupon 6s were not offered under 08. City loans firmly maintained former figures, and holders of new loan were asking 1004. The share list was again very weak.

Canal stocks were excessively dull, with 45 J bid forLehlch; 30 lor Chesapeake and Delaware; and m for Srsquehanoa. In Bank and other stocks there were no changes to note. Gold was a little firmer this morning, 140, being the average rate. The probability of capital finding its wav from Europe to this country tn consequence of tbe glut ot gold there, continues to be a subject of discussion. It is an interesting fact that the present is only the third time on which the Bank of England rate of discount has been reduced to two percent., the former occatious having been in 1852 and 1862. In 1852 it remained at that point for eight months and a half. The coin and bullion in both departments amounted on the 17th of July to 22,086,726 a larger sum than It ever held before, although the Bank of Fiance has the equivalent of more than thirty millions sterling. The extreme rate ot ten per cent, bas only been reached twice tn the his tory of tbe Bank, namely, in November, 1857, and again last year during the financial crisis.
