Ricuonp, Va, June 1, 1867. The recent order of General Schofield, No. 31, placing all tho civil authorities, whether judges, magistrates, municipal officers, police, sheriffs, constables, &c., in abeyance to the military, by the appointment of Military Commissioners, has tod a good deal of comment, both by the press and in private among the citizens, Tho heretofure mild and conciliatory course pursued by tho military commander, and hia expressed wish that ho should not be called upon to interfere with the civil au- thority, renders the late decree still moro inexplicable to the unroconstructed hore, Tho action is, however, wise and proper in every essential particular, Warued by the examples of New Orleans and Mobile, having in this State a turbulent cloment of a radical stripe, and aware that pol sof that order might at any time incite violence aud riot, General Schofield opportunely Provided against the necessity for the use of such power as was exercised in the cities above alluded to, Leaving even this necessity for such an order out of the question, it is well known that under the teachings of political incendiaries a large portion of the people bere are not disposed to recognize the authority of the pre- sent civil officials, who are designated by the blacks now as rebels wlio ought to bo turned out of office, In a short time an active political campaign, in which all the bad and evil passions of both races may be stirred up, will be tnaugurated in Virginia, when nothing short of the bayonet and miliary edict can preserve order and main- tain the supremacy of the law, which ceriainly the Present civil avthorities cannot. It will therefore be seen that General Schofield bas exercised a wise dis- cretion in placing the civil authority subservient to the military until such time as officials elected by the whole ody politic cap properly and efficiently perform the functions of their respoctive offices. 1 can. however, say that the commander has to the present been pleased with tho jurisdiction of the civti authorities, nor is there an instance, even the most trivial, ne has had to com- plain of, Tho estimate of $2.000,000 to dofray the expenses cf fogistraliou, previously forwarded to the Hera, will, as then stated, fall immeasurably short of the amount ‘'re- quired for that expensive job. OfMicers of the Quarter- master’s Department with whom I have conversed, aud who can best form an estimate of the real expense that may be incurred, state half a million will scarcely cover the amount ‘requ for Virginia alone, At this rate five millions—instead of five hundred thousand, 48 appropriated by Congross—wili be hardly suflicient & complete the ‘yob." Officers of the army, one of whom will be on each registration board, have to be paid oot only their pay, but allowances tor fucl, light, quarters and transportation, not counting orderiies, horsea, and other iucidental’ exponses, The civilians, who are al! poor, must be allowed, as well as a respect- ablo salary, contingent expenses to support their faini- lies while absent, besides little privileges always at- tached to government olices. In this way reconstric- tion wi!i_be much dearer than the country bas been inclined to suppose. Smythe county, in this State, has latterly been the scone of disturbances between radicals and rebels, both, however, being deserving of censure. The Intesi intel- Uigence from Marion, the capital of the county, comes in tho shape of an oMicial report from Lieutenant McKay, wuo has recenuly been appointed Chief of the Board of Registration in that county. This officer in- forms the commanding general that disloyalty is rampant there, and he, as the representative of the government, bad been frequently ipsulied. He further stated the fi existiog between ves there warranted the appre! sion of an outbreak at ‘To this very ex- b Lynchburg, whica may have the effect Of quictiug the partisans of both factions there.

The cotton is making what tho planters cat! a good stand; but as tho season is over two weeks behind hand, the gum:ner weather must run two or three woeks further into the autuian than usual, or the frost will nip off a considerable portion of the crop, With a good season running well into the fall, Georgia will probably produce this year three bundred thousand bales, and the whole South two millions; but the crop can hardly be more under tho best conditions, and it may bo leas by halt a million, One of the misgivings of the planters is in the matter From this time on tae growing cotton will re- quire careful and consiant working; and the freedinen, itis feared, will be drawn off trom their work to ationd to political meetings, elections, &., thus causing the crop to suffer from neglect. uuderstanding seems generally to prevail between the pliunters and the laborers, and by guaranteeing the latter an interest in the crop, or by making it their interest to produce a large crop, the planters doubtless will have fath{ul work.

The deeper the bell went down the more the alr was compressed, but it could never be penetrated. The elasticity of air was, how- ever, the property which made it the most effective means of moving large bodies from a state of inertia. If a vacuum could be created the preasure of the atmos- ore would be exerted upon any body placed within i@ reach, and this pressure amount fact that heat was capable of rarefyii air and go creating a current had for a long time ai ed the attention of inventors, The force of wind was a matter of great interest. In a great storm the velocity of the wind was equal to sixty-four miles an hour, or twenty-six pounds to the square inch; ina hurricane, ninety-six miles ao hour, or thirty-seven pounds to the square ioch, and in a destructive hurricane, one hundred and eight miles an hour, or forty-six pounds to the square inch, The tremendous power of alr, go strikingly Mustrated by these facts, had been frequently sought to be utiiiz:d, and some thirty years ago Mr. Modhuret, io England, bad planned a pneumatic railroad, but the time was not ready for it, and the matter dropped through. ‘Tho lecturer then et the model of a pneumatic railroad, and illustrated the enormous pressure which could be obtained, He also showed that by an extremely ingecious contrivance more.than two cars could b» sent along at the same time; so that if a pneumatic road were constructed all around New York a car might be moving from the Bat- tery to tho Fifth avenue and from Harlem down town at the same time. The expense of such a system would be much cheaper than steam power. Une large engine would bo much cheaper than a number of locomotives, The bridges, the track and the whole superstructure need not be so heavy as in sailroads. The wear and tear would be much loss, as there was very little fric- tion, Half a dozen cars on a railroad sometimes were on fire from the friction caused by dust. Then the cars on the pnoumatic railroad might be run at almost any gradiont, and might be taken under a river with great apeed doubtedly be attained on # pneumatic with the most complete safety, Dr. Gilbert then could be stopped, a number of safety valves in the tube being employed. might be a brick archway, plastered on the inside and made smooth, and the cars almost fill up the passage way, care being taken, however, that they should not ing to the club, These things towards bringing pachting toe for nothing Is s0 conducive to A TOCSIN SOUNDED FOR SHERIDAN. 28) of the St. nen ms Maa }) of the Fow Northern men understand honor due to Sheridan for tue administration of affairs in his department since the close of the war.
