FROM WA SUING TON,
WxsniNOTON, Sept. 2. The Bonrd of Aldermen,
which, for more than three months past, has failed
to offoct a complcto organization, adjusted their
differences between the two political parties to
night, by the adopt'on of a resolution fixing that
Alderman Richards, Republican, would resign the
chair provided the hoard will elect another Ilo
publlcan to the plsro, and accordingly Richards
resigned. Alderman Moore, Democrat, also resigned
his rlnims to the same position. Tlieso gentlemen
hud both churned to be elected President, and had
often attempted, as civil ofllcers, to conduct the
proceedings at the same time, Tho difficulty being
now removed, the hoard elected Alderman Orindcr,
.Republican, President.
Tho Alabama committee will probably leave
Washington on their return to thai State on Tues
day e vening. Tb.ey expect to-morrow, in accordance
with the assurances of tho President, that an order
will bo issued to General Meade to take tho nooes
sary precautionary measures to prevent disturb
ances at the ensuing election, by a proper distribu
tion of troops now in Alabnma and of thoso which
inav In addition bo furnished.
A" member of the Alabama Legislature, not con
nected with the committee, now here, says Governor
Smith's veto of the bill authorizing the election of
Presidential electors by the Legislature has not yet
been considered by that body.
it will probably'bo sustained, but a popular elec
tion to choose members of the electoral college
requires additional legislation, about which there
is no doubt. A majority of the legislative Com
mittee, now In Washington, are represented as op
posed to any election, being approhenstve of bloody
results, unless the Republicans allow it to go by
default. Tho Governor and a majority of tho com
mittee, and possibly a majority of both branches of
the Alabama Legislature, do not entertain these
fears, and are favorable to taking the sense of the
people at all hazards.
The Texas Democracy.
Washington, Sept. 28. Advices through army
sources from an officer at Marshall, Texas, say that
the country in his neighborhood aril that of Shreve
port is overrun by robbers; that all the roads are
entirely unsafe except for considerable armed
bodies, and that a freebooter roams the country
with over 100 men, well mounted and armed. About
the 1st Inst, they captured a train of forty govern
ment wagons loaded with supplies.
The commanding officer at Sulphur Springs,
Texas, a post garrltoned by a small company of the
2tith infantry, had sent an express to Gen. llayden,
commanding at Marshall, stating that if not re
inforced, tliis garrison, which was surrounded,
would be slaughtered. A company of the 15th
infantry, and tifty picked men besides, had just
started to reinforce him.
Illness of Dr. Uurley.
The Rev. Dr. Gurloy, an eminent Presbytorian
minister of this city, is lying very ill, and no hopes
are entertained of Lis recovery.
Internal Revenue Appointments.
Henry L. Noyes, of Pennsylvania, was appointed
Storekeeper to-day, and Levin Wllley, Gaugcr,
Fifteenth Pennsylvania district.
IN aval Changes.
Commander Homer C. Blake is ordered to the
command of tho Swatara, belonging to the Ku
ropeaii squadron, relieving Commander Jcfl'ers.
Tobacco and Snuff.
Commissioner Rollins, in reply to a tobaceo llrm
in Lynchburg, says that all their tobacco and snuff,
most Of which Is brandod tax fraa, having lsot
manufactured prior to 1HU2, while the remainder is
branded from five to fifteen cents per pound, which
shall not be disposed of prior to Jauuary 1 next,
and all which they may purchase, tax paid, but not
packed and stamped according to law, and have on
hand, will have to be repacked and stamped after
that date.
The Case of Mudd, Arnold and Spanglcr.
The Attorney General's Office has received a
copy of tho opinion of Judge Hoynton, of the
Southern District of Florida, on tho application for
a writ of habeas corpus to release from imprison
ment Mudd, Arnold and Spangler, who were sen
tenced by military commission in the spring of
1MU5 to confinement at Dry Tortugas, on convic
tion of conspiracy to take tho life of Abraham Lin
coln. The two points relied upon in support of the
affirmation of this question were: First. The mili
tary commission had, at tlio time and place at
which it w as held, no jurisdiction to try and sen
tence for the offence with which those persons were
charged. Second. Jf they were rightfully impri
soned up to the 4th of July last, they were par
doned by the President's proclamation of that date
and ought now to be set at liberty. Ex parte Milli
gan was a case in point.
He found no difficulty in classing the offence as a
military one; and with this opinion arrived at, the
conclusion followed that the proper tribunal for the
trial of those engaged in it was a military tribunal.
The proclamation plainly excludes all persons
standing in the position of these petitioners, whe
ther they have been convicted or not. It pardons
the crime of treason. That is, it pardons persons
,. who have levied war against the United States, or
given aid and comfort to their enemies, within the
laws and usages of war; 'but it pardons no person
who has transgressed the laws of war no spy, no
assassin, and no person who has been guilty of bar
barous treatment to prisoners. For these reasons,
elaborately set forth, the writ was denied.
Sale of Arms Prohibited.
The Secretary of War has issued an erder sus
pending for the present the sale of all government
arms, ammunition, Ac.

Mkmthis, Tenn., Sept. 24, The Avalanche's
Helena (Arkansas), letter of yesterday says: Yester

named Lee Morrison, who had killed several per
sons hut winter. He shot and maimed for life
Shcrlfl Hart Taylor, on attempting to arrest him,
and recently knocked the Jailor in the head and

No sooner had the Sherlirs posse knocked at the

killing Mr. Maley. The others attempted to close
on him, when he mado ilusperatn resistance, se
verely wounding Perry Neagle, and Andy Karnes,

the affair spread like wildllre, and soon fully a
hundred men were scouring tho woods, and suc
ceeded In iimling Morrison, whose arm was broken,
and having a wound In his side. A vote was taken
on the spot, all voting In favor of hanging him,
which wus accordingly done.

The Nomination o( (Jciioriil Holler.
Sm.km, Sept. 2 General Hutler, alter hlsnom
Inatlon by the Republican Convention for Congress
to-day, was called before th Convention and made
a speech. He whs frequently Interrupted by ap
plause. He said: By this cordial greeting, by vour
personal kindness, by the high honor of a nomina
tion ax a representative worthy of the support of
the Republican party.of the district, conferred with
such unanimity, I am mado so deeply vour debtor
as to be tco poor In thanks ever to repay. I can
acknowledge the obligation onlv by renewed ef
forts In your service in the duties which yon hive
devolved upon me. For I do nut permit mvsolf to
doubt that In Massachusetts, In Ksse district, a
nomination so unanimously made by the delegates
of the Republican party, r.i.wcti by Its primary as
semblies in every town and city in the district, lsan
election.
In so believing 1 am not nnmlndfnl that tho
names of some one hundred and fifty persons, ob
tained after the most persistent drumming, have
appeared, attached to a call asking "All their fellow-citizens
opposed to returning Gen. Butler to
Congress, and who cannot in honor sanction or be
responsible for tho Issue he has himself raised, to
meet in this city on Monday next." If all should
come who would be cllgiblo and sympathetic under
such a call, I should. Indeed, fear the result, not
withstanding your hearty and efficient support.
Seymour and Blair, Lee and Beauregard, Wado
Hampton and Forrest, Wise, Mumford and Booth,
all the rebel hosts, living and dead, will fraternize
with the signers of that call In a movement to op
pose the return of General Butler to Congress, and
each of them will lay his hand on the place where
his heart ought to be, and affirm iion his traitorous
honor that ho cannot sustain the Issues Gen. Butler
has raised.
For himself, during the last seven years ho has
been In the service of his country. The safety of the
Republican party of this district lies in the fact
that there are too few men of that mind In Mas
sachusetts, and especially In Ksscx. to make a
meeting inconveniently large, nor am I frightful of
the common rumors that these gentlemen and their
coadjutors have raised JMO.OOO with which to pur
chase the defeat of tho Republican party in this
district.
He stated that the sum was too small, and that
forty millions could not accomplish the defeat of
the Republican party and himself in that district.
He admitted the right of men to vote for whom
they chose; but said no man who belongs to the
party, and claims to act with that party and for its
good, has a right to organize his own views and
Wishes against the properly expressed will of the
party through its regularly constituted authorities.
to do so is to rebel, and by so doing he puts himself
outside the party.
He contimied'to denonnce the action of the gen
tlemen who have opposed his nomination, and
charged that his financial views were only the tire
text, not the real cause of their opposition. These
financial opinions harmonized with those of Sena
tors Sherman and Morton, and other members of
the party. Upon this question he announced him
self as agreeing fully with the Chicago platform
"that the national honor requires the payment of
the public Indebtedness fn the utmost good faith
to all the bondholders, at home and abroad, not
only according to the letter, but the spirit of the
law under which it was contracted." I am not con
scious of having uttered anything which contra
venes It.
He agreed with the platform also that the time
for paying the debt should bo extended over a long
period, and that It should be funded at a lower rate
of interest. While he had said tho letter of the
law would permit the payment of the debt In green
backs, he believed the latter should be paid in gold
as soon as the resources of the nation will admit of
it. With the election of General Grant assuring
peHce in me soimi, prosperity would return and in
crease throughout the whole country, rendering
this question one of no importance.
At the close of his speech General Butler pre
sented a resolution embodying the general princi
ples of the progressive kepublican party, which
was unanimously adopted, and the Convention ad
journed. Cricket Match.
Boston, Sept. 28 The International cricket
match between the All England eleven and the
United States twenty-two, selected from the Boston
and other clubs in Massachusetts, the St. George
and other New York clubs, and Young America and
other Philadelphia clubs, began to-day. A heavy
rain set in on Saturday night and continued all
through Sunday and Sunday night. To-day it
cleared olf and the weather is fine.
The ground was very wet, the new turf soft and
the outer field rough, with water standing in pools.
Willsher saysit is the worst ground he ever saw.
There was a large attendance of spectators. Tho
twenty-two won the toss, and put the eleven to the
wicket, against Norley and Charles Newhall's
bowling, which, together with the llelding, was
very good. '
it was supposed that It would be Impossible for
the eleven to get runs, because the ground was so
dead. Tho fielding was very sharp. The play
commenced at two o'clock, with Humphreys
and Jupp going to the bat. They were very
cautious. On tho soventh over Humphreys
was caught by Norley in a slip from Newhall; one
wicket down for three runs. On the thirty-seventh
over Jupp was bowled out by Norley for only threo
runs, alter he had assisted Smith running thirty.
On the nextover Smith was caught by Hammond
from Newhall at the point; three wickets down,
thirty-three runs. Griffith and Freeman went to
gether to the bats. Freeman was bowled out by
Newhall, the stump being ripped out of the ground.
The score now stood four wickets down and 35
runs. The betting was decidedly in favor of tho
twenty-two. Rowbotham then joined Griffith,
who was batting freely, but Rowbotham soon re
tired for one run, having been caught out by New
ball, bowled by Norley. Five wickets down and 48
runs. Pooley went in on the 43d over, and went
out for only five runs, when time was called on the
53d over. balls had been thrown. Griffith went
out for 41 runs by brilliant batting. The total
when timo was called was 80 runs, and the Knglish
stock rising. There Is every appearance of contin
uous hue weather.
From Virginia.
Btcn MONTt, Sept. 28 On Saturday night, in New

of appointing delegates to represent them in the
Commercial Convention which convenes in Nor
folk on the 14th proximo. Hon. Alexander H. H.

var Christian. A resolution authorizing the Chair
man to appoint fifteen delegates was adopted, to
which were added the Chairman and secretary.
The Virginia and Tennessee, Southslde, and Nor
