New wheat was sold in Richmond, Va.,o for three dollars a bushel on Saturday. An important amendment has been made to the bill for the protect ion of the rights of American citizens abroad, retaining, however, the amendment of the Senate Committee providing that the President shall notify Congress if in session, of all the facts connected with the arrest and im prisonment of our citizens abroad that it may take such steps as may be necessary; but providing if Congress is in session for the retaliatory measures of Mr. Banks’ bill suspending commercial relations. The Chicago Timer Washington special, of Monday says delegates from the southern States to the Democratic convention are daily arriving. They generally express themselves as willing to defer to the North and West in the election of a candidate. . Thad Stevens new articles of impeachment are flushed and in type, but are refused the press.— They will be presented, it is thought, Wednesday or Thursday. Mr. Cobb offered a resolution instructing the Ways and Means committee to report a bill levying a tax of ten per cent, on the interest of United States bonds, to be assessed and collected annually by the secretary of the treasury, which passed the House by 92 against 54. The first count in the new indictment against John H. Surratt charges him with conspiring with Booth, Payne, Harold, O - Laughlin, Arnold, Atzeroth and Mrs. Surratt, to murder Abraham Lincoln. The second count charges him with conspiracy to’capture Mr. Lincoln and deliver him as a prisoner into the possession of certain persons whose names are unknown to the grand jury. Radical Euenemy. The Chicago Times says that the tax assessed to pay for Radical rule in the city of Chicago, amount to four and one-half per cent, of the taxable property of the city. The same authority says that it cost some $3,500 to build a certain side-walk in one of the divisions, while some 84,500 was paid the Radical Inspector for inspect! sg the same. How are you Mew York, Fort Wayne and Adams county. Radi cal economy with • vengeance, that, friend Joues.

Political Items. The bondholder’s candidate — Grant and Colfax. The Indianapolis /Sentinel says a lady lately inquired for a whiskey ring at ajeweleiy store at Indian apoli’s, and was referred to Washington. For further particulars inquire of Peter Cleaver Shanks, M. C. The Radicals used up all their economy in making their platform, hence its entire absence in legislation and the practical administration of the Government. Professions cost nothing. Brick is advancing in Washington. Grant uses so many in his lat It is said that Ben Butler has quit the impeachment buisiness, having sold out to Thad Stevens, who will continue the show at the same old stand. Ben. will resume his old practice of spooning. The Toledo Blade is in trouble. Some of the negroes down South arc-troubled about alarming symptoms of “going back” on the carpet baggers. Think of it; disloyal niggers. Horrible! Alas for reconstruction! Where’s Nasby ? The Radicals at Washington are experimenting with an old locomotive called General Grant. — They pretend to say they can economizc largely and make agreat saving in fuel by using spiritus frumen ti and benzine in getting up steam. They should be encouraged. It is the first symptom of economy wehave noticed. We expect Parson Jones will illustrate this point of Radical economy in his next The Committee on Ways and Means wich is largely Jacobin, has concluded to postpone the various financial schemes relating to the public debt until after the Presidential election. There is something “rotten in Denmark,” Congressman Blain, of Wisconsin, recently attempted to smuggle through Congress a bill to arm and equip the negro militia of the South. The Democrats, however were on the alert, and it was withdrawn. It proposed to furnish each Congressional District with 2,000 Springfield rifles and two field pieces. The rascals! Grant is agout to start on an electioneering tour. Will he have the decency to resign, and to pay his own expenses while stumping the country ? If Grant gets as many votes as he sacrificed federal lives in his military career, he will not run so very far behind his democratic competitor at thecoming election. The subjoined will show how the will of the people rules in Georgia: “Headquarters Sub-Dist. or Ga.} “Office Suft. Registration, > May 8,1868. j “John M. Duer, Esq., Columbus: “Dear Sir—Yours of the 9th at hand. We want affidavits proving force, fraud, intimidation, In violation of general orders. We must have thpm, and plenty of them. Go to work and get them up at once. “The names of the parties making the affidavits will not be known to any person except yourself and the board. They need have no fear on that score. You can swear them before Captain Hill. Please go to work ‘sharp and quick.’ Get Chapman and other friends to assist you. “The election in your county will be contested. Defend yourself by attacking the enemy. Respectfully, 4c., “E. Hurlbert.” - On a fair count of votes, the constitution and the Jacobin state ticket were both defeated in that state. Anna Dickinson, the strongminded woman who is stumping the country in the interest of the Jacobins, said in a recent speech, “Shame, shame on those Republicans who say: ‘I believe the black man should vote in Louisiana, but under no circumstances here in the North.’” Anna is right The Jacobin National Platform which makes this distinction is a cheal. . and ought to be spumed by all right minded persons— Ft. Wayne Democrat. A huge Indianian in England ’ being profusely thanked fer having rescued a lady from the attack of a feroddus dog, which he seized by the throat and throttled, said: “Os course I was glad to help the gal, but what I wanted most was to give that condemned English cur some adequate notion of the American eagle.”

= H A gentleman from Detroit asked a prominent Jacobin in this city how he liked the national convention of his party lately in session here. Said the Jacobin: “The “party had no convention. Logan “and Dan. Sickles, and John Coch “rane, and Jo. Brown of Georgia, “and a few other turncoat demo‘,(*rats, had one, and nominated a turncoat democrat as our candidate They run the party now.”

There is a great deal of this feeling abroad among the “loyal,” and it adds very much to the apprehension of Tylorixation in case Grant should be elected. This will help to account for the lack of enthusiasm among the Jacobins over their candidate. He is the choice of apostates, whose services the party in power accepts, though all honest members of that party despise them for treachery and de-
