The Republican, of New Orleans, has fall re- tarns.of the vote yesterday in the first, second, and third districts of that city: Ist, 2,540; 2d, 2,253; 3d, 2,297—total, 7,690. Nearly all the votes cast were for the convention. The num- ber of registered voters in these districts is 94,935. The Republican expres-es the appre- bension that unless the vote is heavier to- day, the proposition for a convention w fail—the law requiring & majority of the regis- tered volers to vote, or the election fails. Judge Parker, of the Circuit Court of Vir ginia, has rendercd a decision that the old banks making assignments under the act of February, 16€5, cannot give preference to any class of creditors; that note-holders have no preference over depositors, and that deposits of conf derate money are to be tre .t-das notes of the bank to the extent of its value at the time of deposit.

The principal sub- jects discussed were the part of men and wo- men in society, the education of children, edu- cation ir general and treedom of education. On the first point the Congress came to the almost unanimous conclasion that for physiological and hygienic reasons, as well as ou economic the employment of woman 83 an industrial la- borer. With regard to the transportation of goods, its sentiment was that the transport ser- ‘vice should not be in the hands of private per- sons, but in the whole body of the people, and should be carried on at net cost, withouta view to profits and dividends. The principle of capital punishment was repudiated. As to property in land the French and Italian dele- g2tcs supported the principle of individual property, the Belgians upbeld that ofa common property; the English and Germans took the lat- ter view tosomeextent. Nodecision was made on the subject, however, and it was postponed Dntil the next meeting. which is to be held at Brussels next year. With regard to co-opera- tion the Congress resolved as follows :—First “The Congress urges upon the members of the International Workingmen’s Association in the various countries the necessity of using their influence to induce trades’ societies to apply a portion of their reserve funds to the estabiish- ment of co-operative productive concerns, as the best means of utilizing the credit which they now give tothe middle classes and gov- erpments for the purposes of their own eman- cipation;” and, second, that “those secieties ‘who do not deem it expedient to embark in co- operative Production of thelr own, ought, by means of their funds, to ,Acilitate theestablish. ment and carrying on of such concerns, and use efforts to establish a system of credit based upon the securities and means of those who in- yeke its aid, and to found a system of co-oper! tive banking which would enable them to is- sue promissory notes irrespective of metallic Teeerves. GENERAL SCHOFIELD DecLings TO OBEY A Writ or Haszas Corpvs.—A writ of habeas corpus, issued by Judge Meredith,ot the circuit court of Richmond, . was disobeyed Thursda; by order of Gen. Schofield, under the follow. ing circumstances: A youth, sixteen years of age, who enlisted in the army in Georgia in 1266, against the wishes of his parents, peti- tioned to be brought befure Judge Meredith ‘under @ writ of hateas corpus, in order that he might obtain his diecharge from the army. The petition ‘was granted, and petitioner brought before the judge. The hearing of the case was contunued for a week at the instance of the re; tative of the Government. When the time arrived for the examination the following communication, instead of the body of the petitioner, was presented tothe judge: Gffice of the Commandant of Libby Prison, Rich- mond, Sepi. %—To the Judges of the Cirenit Court of the city of Richmond: I have the honor to inform you that 1 am ordered by the Major General commanding this military dis. trict not to obey a writ of habeas corpus, in t! case ot William James Keebler, served on me by the Oircpit Court ef the city of Richmobd. Very respectfully,your obedient servant, J. KENNINGTON. First Lieutenant, 11th imfantry, Brevet Cap- tain U.S. A. VIEWS OF NATOR SHERMAN.—Senater Sberman. of Ohio, whose conservative ten- dencies are well known, said in bis speech at Ciueinnat: “I, perhaps, am disposed to take 8 darker and more gloomy view of the Presi- dent’s position than someothers. Bat I dosay to you that there is Teason to believe that the President of the United States contem- pla‘’s even more than he has yet done. Ifyou pick up the papers that support the Presi- dent’s policy, what are they filled with! Threats against Congress as a ramp Congress, and about dispersing Congress. Who is Con- grcis? Who are these Senators and Represen- tatives? Nothing but your agésts, sent to do your will, aod to disperse them fs to disperse ou; to deprive them of the power to make jaws is to 01 Ww your power to make laws, and let me tell the President that when- ever he atternpts todo that, and to ran a tilt against you or your agents, he will run against lye thander, [Great applause.”) WINCHESTSR AnD PoTomac KR.

[ ense Union Meeting im Philadelphia Serenade te Generals Sheridan and Sickles. Philadelphia's streets were thronged with people yesterday and at every point where it ‘was supposed that Sheridan and Sickles would pass the thoroughfares were blocked up. At noon Sheridan visited the Union League Honee, on Broad street, and there received the different members of that association and their families. d A committee of the Council waited on Gen. Hancock, tendering him the hozpitalities of the city. He was also invited to the banquet at the League House, but he declined boih, as he bad made arrangements for visiting Nor- ristown on his route west. ‘At an immense jablican soldiers’ meet- ing Inst night, at the Netional Hall, Generali Louis Wa; resided. Among the resoiu- tions were the fellowing: Resolved, That the bright promise of solid peace, 8 restored Union, and perfect harmony ‘were biasted by the aseas:ination of Abraham Lincoln and the subsequent treachery of Wil- liam H. Seward and te perfidy of Andrew Jonneon. Resolved, That Andrew Johnson. selected Vice-President, and acting President, has proves himself the worst eremy the Republic as ever bad. Resolved, That we urge the House of Repre- sentatives, when it shall meet in November next, to formally tmpeach Andrew Johnson of igh crimes and misdemeanors. Resolved. That now, a8 in 1961, we are pre- pared for an uprising of the American people. e are ready to quit workshop, factory, desk, farm, to cast aside domestic ties. and arm and fight for our country and freedom and the Tights of all her children ; that, mindful of the past, we will never suffer rebels to rule pa- trots, our glorious leaders to be reviled, our Congress to be resisted by a traitorons Presi- dent. backed by a guilty band of conspirators, and & powerful bu: misguided party. the adjournment of the meeting a pro- cession was formed, and marched to the Union League house. After music by the band, Gen- erals Sheridan and Siciles appeared, ‘were received with prolonged cheers. (#en' ral Wagner addressed them as comrades of t! Republic, extending cordial welcome to them as true to their country in its hour ot danger, and finding them still true in its present danger from covert treason. As we followed you then in fight, we will follow you now in your efforts to reconstruet the South upon the basis of the will of loyal men, as expressed by the act of Congress. General Sheridan madea brief reply, tender- ing thanks for the honor conferred upon him. General Sickles being called for, made an eloguent speech. He said: “Comrades: This Government is arepublic where the will of the people is the law of the land. This mexim, eo full of wisdom and truth, we have from Grant, General-in-Ohief ofour armies. No military power has been exercised in the rebel States not autnorized by Congress and sanctioned by the laws of the land. Military forceisthere only to execute the laws. Under military protection, loyal civil governments will bs established and maintéined by ballots put in the bands ot loyal men. ‘If that could bave been done ten yeare ago ‘we would bave had no rebellion. If we do it now we will not have another. Have no fear the colored race will not know their friends from therr foes. Their hearts, full of grati- tude, will govern their conduct as citizens, Loyalty and order are to them almost as sacred as ‘religion. Safe and trusted at home, they will contribute vastly to the resources of the nation, and take nothing away from the em- ployments and franchises of any other race or class “Comrades! Let me not forget our brave comrades who fell in the war for the Union. Their shroudless forms lie buried in many a forest and field, 1 antamn leaves. Their nameless graves are numbered only by the re- cording angel. Let us sernetimes listen to sad voices, mournful as mufited drums, and heard even through yielding sod. They say to us now, ‘Brothers, you who have been spared Jeave not undone the work we did not live to help you do.’” A Man ARATES FROM HI8 WIFE TO Marky a Rich Wivow.—Last spring « prom- ‘nent citizen of Grand Haven, Michigan, met with an accident which resulted in his death. His widow, in her seuson of mourning, kept herself very secluded, hardly receiving calls from her most intimate friends. ‘uy after hie death a concert troupe, managed by one Clement, came to Grand Haven, when C. and his wife made the acquaintance of the widow, and the three became very intimate. After a short tour to other places the coucert busine was given up, and Grand Haven selected as the spot for the residence of the singers. ‘The summer passed away and Mr. and Mrs. Clement “quarreled” with each other. Mr. C. grew qnite attentive toward the widow. A separation was agreed upon between Mr. and Mrs.©. About the firstof August last Mr. and Mrs. O. and the widow proceeded to Mil- waukee, the latter drawing her money out of the bank and converting her property into money before starting, and taking with her about $60,000 in money, and a large share of it in gold. Arriving at Milwaukee Mrs. 0. took charge of a child belongirg to the widow, and = C. took charge of the widow and married rr. Mrs. ©. then returned to Grand Haven, and has made application for a divorce from her busband, on the ground of desertion, and ‘when this paper is secured she is to marry the eon of the widow, aged about20 years, whohas coneiderable money and property in bis own right. If there is any truth inthis story, it is 8 well-laid scheme of the Olements to possess themeelves of the mone y belonging to the wid- ow and her eon. Nothing bas been heard ot Mr. Clement and his new wife since their mar- Tiage, a little over a month ago. DisMaL Swamre Pzat.—The New York has along article on peat—the peat wamp, the lakes, and Osnada. The article discusses peat in all its adaptation It has been tried in Canada’ for rail- roads with fine results. It 1s economical and efficient. It requires less amount im bulk ef coal, and mages an intense beat. Railroad men regard it as @ great auxiliary to failroad interests, not only as fuel, butas afford- ing & new article of transportation, It is also considered as suitable for iron works as a tuel for “smelting purposes.” For parlors and chambers it is said to be admirable. It burned in small quantities, and requires to replenished often; but yields.a more intense heat and makes less ashea than coal or wood. Dismalswamp is probably the largestavailable pest deposit in America, if not in the world; and its availability arises in a great measure from the fact that a canal large enough for “small steamboats traverses its center. Tue CUBAN SLave Taaps.—The Official Gazette, of Havana, has just published the law ot Jaiy 1), 1866. for the total sappression of the slave trade.

No. 721 Locust street. The victim was Susan Miller, colored servant in the family of Mr. Tevis, wife of Jas. Miller, Kennet Square, in Chester county. Sae had been married some ten or twelve years, but had for the Jast year or two been living separate from her husband, because of ill tredtment. He is a resident of Kennet Square, and is said to been farming at one time, and latterly engaged inechool teaching With- im & few months pest he Bas visited the city several times, bis object being either to obtain her consent to live with him, or, failing in that, to procure a divorce. Wednesday ne came tothe city and the wife went with him to see a lawyer to have the necessary papers drawn up for a final separation. It seems, however. that this pur; was not carried oui She return to the house of Mr. Tevis in the afternoon between three and fou: o'clock, and about half past six be made his appearance. She was engaged with another servant in wasbing diehes, and he entered ‘into conversation with her in re- spect to his proposition to take her home. She persisted that she would not go back to Kennet Square with him; giving as a reason that he had treated her very baaly before, and she feared that he would do soagain. At this time he seemed very calm, and showed no disposition to commit any violence. She wished him to sit down and have something to eat, bat he declined. After he had been nearly a quarter of an hour in the kitchen bis manner ehanged, and he said in a deter- Tined ton ‘Susan, I'll give you five minutes to make up your mind to live with me or not.” She replied that she had already done so, and that sbe would not go back. Just at this time he was seen to draw a re- volver from his coat pocket, take deliberate aim, and discharge it at her. In rapid suc- cession five barrels were discharged, two or three of them apparently taking effect, She caught hold of the servant woman close to her, and tried to support herself, and at this moment one or two of the discharges took place. The other servant was not struck by tbe balls. Susan Milier very eoon fell to the floor, ard death was almost instantaneo: One of the loads had passed through he head, and probably one through the body. As Foon as Miller had finished his murderous work, be laid therevol ver upon adining-table, and walked hurriedly out of the basement doorway into Locust street, and escaped be- fore the news of the murder had reached th police or the citizens. The detectives were early on the spot, and measures were taken to secure the arrest of Miller, who was thought to be in the city. He is represented to be about thirty-five years old, of medium size, and genteely dressed. The murdered woman ie a mudat’o, about thirty-six years old. She has relatives living in Kennet Square.—Phil- adelphia Ledger, REPORTED HEAVY REVENUE FRAUDS IN Nuw YouK.—The Treasury Department has, it ts stated, received a report from J. H. Wig- gin, Treasury agent in New York city, to the effect that he has caused an attachment to be made upon the pereonal property ot Mr. Henry Hart, ot New York, to the amount of $400,000, to indemnify the United States for losses al- leged to have been sustained through the frands of himself and accomplices. The method on which the alleged swindling scheme was or- ganized is as follows: Mr. Hart, together with Messrs.G Commack, Hefler, Long & Denton, ora portion of them, established a warenouse at 290 and 291 West street, New York. The ware. house was established in the name of Henry Long, was bonded, and an inspector of cus- toms wasappomted. The inspector, however, proved, itis alleged, tohave been in confed- eration with the company. The plan of op- ‘ration was to abstract brandy and other liquors from the easks and barreis in the warehouse, and fill the casks with water, and to take out the cigars from the boxes and fill the boxes with shavings, earth, &c. The goods thus abstracted by stealth were as secretly carried away and disposed of without one cent of duty having been paid upon them. These alleged frauds have reached to many thousands of dollars, but the business has been broken up, the guilty parties are in custody, and. as before stated, measures have been adopied to recover the losses.—N. ¥.

Arrest of a Hetel Clerk in Chicago fer a Murder Committed in Minnesota More than Twe Years Ago. [From the Chicago Times, 23d.) Saturday forenoon, aman named Cteorge L. Van Solen was arrested at the Wheelur House, in this city, by detective Sam. Eilis, at the in- stance of Ohief of Police Mclirath, of St. Paul, Mmn., on the charge of the murder of Dr. H. Harcourt, near that city, in the month of Au- gust, 1865. For over eight months Mclirath has been engaged upon this case, and his in- vestigations have revealed one of the most coolly planned and perpetrated crimes on re- cord. Van Solen had known Dr. Harcourt, who ‘was a young English physician of rare attain- ments, and who had lately come to this coun- try, in St. Louis, in the year IS63. At thattime ‘Van Solen was in the Government service, being employed asa hospital steward in St. Louis. Here he made Harcourt’s ac- quaintance, and probably laid the plans which be atterward carried out. In the spring of 1865 he was in St. Paul, and by means of a de- coy letter, offering Harcourt the position of surgeon to a bogus expedition to Lake Supe- rior, and the British Possessions, he induced Harcourt to go to St. Paul, taking with bima Jarge supply of medicines, surgical instro- ments, personal effects, and quite an amount ofmoney. After the arrival of Harcourt in St. Paul he soon mysteriously disappeared, and from the subsequent investigations, it seems almost certain that he was taken down the Tiver 8 few miles by Van Solen and murdered in cold blood. The orly object of the awful crime was to obtain the possession of the et- fects he bad brought, and the money which he ‘was known to have. What first excited suspicion of foul play was the xeosipt of letters by the mother of Har- court, in England; one from her son, informing her of bis eppointment, and inclosing the decoy letter, and, atterward, @ letter in answer to her anxious inquiries for him, from Van Solen himself, both of which were in exactly the same handwriting. It was also fonnd that, after the disappearance of Harcourt, his friends at St. Louis had received let*ers, purporting to come from him, and dated “in the wood: all of which were traced directly to Van Solen. ‘With these facts to wo-k upon, Mclirath has for months been at work at the case, endeay- oring to ferret ont the hiding place of Van So- len, and at last, after tracking him from place to place, learned that he was in this city. Saturday morning that officer arrived here, and giving Ellis & photograph of the supposed murderer, and the information that he was probably im some second clacs hotel in the city, the Obicago detectives started on the search. In Je:s than on hour he was found in the hotel named, where he was employed ‘in the capacity of night watchman. Since hisar- Teat he has admitted that he wrote the decoy letters spoken of, and it is now almost certain that he is gullty of this horriblecrime. Officer Mclirath starts to-day for St. Paul with his prisoner, baving brought wi b him a requisi- uon from the Governor of Minnesota. TERRIBLE DecRApArio: One Wm. Rich- ardeon, a fiend in human shape, living on White Ca, until compelled to flee the country for fear of the vengeance ot an outraged com- munity, lost his second wife, who dying, con- signed to his care her babe of scarce a month old. But a short time elapsed before the brats re-married. Before the babe was three months old it was beaten senseless by its innumac parent for crying for something to eat: then thrown upon the floor and left lying there all day long moaning piteously, craving the nourtsbment which its delicate condition re- quired to sustain life. Day after day it would be left crying, prostrate upon the bare floor until the back part of its head had grown per- fectly flat, even with its shoulders. Its fore- ad has grown co far out in front of ite head to almost conceal ite eyes, owing to its lying so long upon its back. The veins upon its forehead are as large as one’s finger hen it would ery for food, they would dish ont some beans or other rough diet, and give it to one of the larger children to feed it, as it would lay upon its back, the boy would force the food into its mouth with his finger, often strangling it. This inhuman, devilish treatment wrs kept up until it became notorious throughout the neighborhood. Then these devils incarnate packed their goods and left the country. The cbild is now 'n the hands of its grand mother. In ail probability it will die, or always be idtotic.— Carthage (Missouri) Banner, 5th. An Invasion or Taitors.—The New York Times is alarmed rrther at the iact that the late accounts irom the grevt tailors’ striie in London show that, on the Sth metant, out of tbe 2,800 men who bad sirock, about halt had obte:med work im other shops, some had de- seried the Union, others had gone into the couniry. and + abant 200 had emigrated to Ame- rica.” ‘The editor says: ‘We have had no epecial report of the arri- valof these strikers here, but we notice a re- markabie fact in the Liverpool returns of the nationality of the emigrants from that port to the United States during the last calendar month. Instead of the great majority being Irieb, as usual, the nationalities ot the steer- passengers were as follows: 3,292 English, 199 scotch, 2,315 Erish, and 2,449 from the Con- ‘iment. In like manner, of the steerage pas- sengers to Canada, 557 were Englisb, 5 Scotch, 136 Irish, and 312 other countries. ‘Tne phe- nomenon of such an unusually large English emigration of late doubtless has its caute in the deranged condition of industrial opera- tions im the great cities of England. More- over, the public men and political economists ot England seem to be anxious to get rid, as soon as possible, of @ large portion of Eng- land’s overcrowded pepuiation.” THE WorkInG Women’s Homg.—This ad- mirable institution was opened in New York city this week.

The Hoyt seduction case, which bas the attention of the Court of » Judge Roberison presiding, since Monday, was yes- terday brought to a sudden and somewhat ro- mantic termination by the marriage of the “high coutracting pardes” in court. ‘The pris- oner, James B Hoyt, a young man of quite respectable standing, was indicted for the se- duction of a Miss Law under promise of mar- riage. and having refused the only atonement —marnage—for the injury be bad done, was placed on trial upon the criminal eharge. One ofthe points relied upon by the prisouer to s¢- cure Bp acquictal was a belief in his ability to prove the previous unchaste character of the girl. For this purpose he mtroduced a wit- ness named Alfred Haight, who testified to inal acts, but when, however, he came to bjected {0 c-oss-examination he 0 co: radicied bimeelf as to satisty all present that he was telling ® wicked and deliberate faise- ood. He left the witness stand ana wen: tothe yest bale of the court house, where he heard expressions of belief on ali ‘sides that he had perjured himself, and other remarks not very complimentary to bis character. Soon after- ‘ward he expressed @ desire to make a fuli and | free retraction of all be b2d said in regard to | the young lady upon the witness stand. Mean. time the Court had adjourned. The news of Haight’s confession was received with perfect astonishment by the counsel for Hoyt, who at | once determined to withdraw from the case and Irave tbe prisoner to his fate. They vis- ited bim in jail and informed bim of the sud- den tarn affairs had taken and of their inabit- | ity to do anything more in bis case. Tho young M&n was somewhat dumfounded at first, but soon regained sufficient composure to propose an offerof marriage. The counsel encouraged the suggestion as the only means of escape leftto him from the State Prison, and when the Court reassembled in the atter- noon—after Haight had publicly withdrawn bis evidence—mace the offer to the District Attorney and Mr. Beach. They were not en- tirely pleased with the proposition, but sab- Mitted it to the young lady. She consulted with her friends—:hey opposed the mar- riage; two sisters, very estimable and worthy ladies, who had nobly stood by the unfor- tupate girl through all the solemn hours of the trial, beseeched her with tears not to marry the prisoner under circumstances such | as bad been developed on the trial, but the Poor, wronged, aad injured girl— with a | mother’s tender love for her offspri heart not yet dead to the unworthy cause of all her misery—geve such reasons for the step that silenced counsel, friends, relative: all in their epposition to the union. and con- sented to the marriage. Meautime, while these whisperings aud negotiauons, conducted with sobs and tears, were going on, the vast audi- ence in the court-room remained silent and in- terested spectators of the scene. Scarcely a person in the crowded assembly at first ap- proved of the union: bat when it was at last nowR that the young girl consented to Tescue the object ot her heart's youthfal affec- tions from a prison, all suddenly reversed their judgment—love won the victory over Teason--and hearty applause greeted the ap~ pearance of Bev. Dr. Baldwin. who had been sent for to perform the marriage ceremony. The young man, a prisoner but a moment before, walked over to his bride, and a few Words passed between them; the revereud Doctor took his position on the right of Judge Robertson, and the young couple presented themselves at the altar. The judge was the first to break the stillnees of the solemn scene. He remarked that the conclusion of the trial could rot but be regarded as fortunate for all parties concerned. It would seem from the evidence in the case that the defendant had been misled by the falsehood of certain par- ties, and had mistrusted the integrity and fidelity of the young lady. A witness had been produced here tending to confirm such an im- pression, buthe bas come into court and made 8 full and free retraction of his evidence in regard to the virtue and character of the com- lainant; and the defendant has become eatis- ed that he has been misied, and desires to make aj] the reparation in his power by a pub- le performance of the ceremony of marriage. tis within the province of the law to sus- pend the proceedings of the trial by the mar- Tiage of the parties, and they are now so sus- pended.

Dur- ng the whole of the solemn service the utmost quiet reigned: all hearts seemed ‘eeply tonched by the spectacle, and tears coursed down many @ quivering cheek. Then tbe prison gates were opened—the parties left the court-room arm in arm, and the marrisge altar became again the tribunal of human j ce. A FAMILY Broken Ur BY DeaTu IN A Srmncte Nicut.—On Saturday there lived a bappy family at 1207 south 7th street, consist- ing of Mr. Hussman, tobacconist, his wife, Barbara, and three children—Angust, aged three yrars; Emma, two; and Robert four years. During the evening Mrs. Hussman was suddenly taken sick, and died during the night. Subsequently tue vmituren were CAken | ill, and by Sunday at noon the mother and her tbree children were dead. Mr. Hussman was also attacked, but is still alive. and will prob- ably recover. These sudden deaths created considerable excitement in the neighborhood, and it was first reported that poison had been the agent in some mysterious way, but there ‘was no foundation for the report. Drs. Smith and Fisher attended the family, and from their testimony, and that of two other physicians who also visited the house, cholera morbus ‘was the cause of desth.—St. Louis Republican. RAILROAD ENTERPRISE IN MINNESOTA.— St. Paul, Minnesota, is soon to be connected by an unbroken line of railway with the lake cities and the East. This will be effected by an extension of the Milwaukee and Prairie du Chein railway from McGregor, opposite Prai riedu Cheip, on the towa side of the river, ‘west to a point intersecting the Minnesota Gen- tral Railrond, which runs ina nearly north and south Hine from St. Paul. The Milwau- kee and St. Paul Railway will soon complete a similar extencion west of La Crosse, inter. secting with the same road, which rons through the best and most productive wheat Tegionin the country. These extensions wil? not only quicken the development of Minne- sota, but will lessen the cost of her agricultu- ral production he eastern consumer. Love axp MURDEE.—On Sai the 2st, Rebert Garlutt, aged twenty-one years, shot Joseph La Plant, aged fifty-six, through the heart, on a street in Detroit. La Plant was walking, at the time, with Emily Boucher, a young girl to whom he was to be married soon, and who was also engaged to Garlutt. La Plant's wife was but three months dead, but he was rich, the yeung lover poor, the girl false,and her forsaken lover drunk. So the old lover is dead, the young one in jail, the girl likely to be @ mother, and much in want of a husband, and the affair done up in French style furnishes columns of sensation for the good people of Detroit.
