THE WKATUER.
OOVBBNOB KEMPER'S ANNUAL MKOSAOB TO
THB LEGISLATURE.
Richmond, December 2.—The General
Assembly met this afternoon. Governor
Kemper submitted his annual massage,
whioh, together with the accompanying
documents, covers one hundred and thirty
pages of printed matter. He favors re
capitalization of the Stato debt in uniform
obligations, payable in thirty years, bear
ing annual interast of 4 per oent. sterling.
A plan for providing a State ourrenoy ia
proposed, whioh the Governor belioves
would relieve one of the moat grievous
wants of the people. He renews the
recommendations of his Ant message, on
inuuigvation, and says tho Slate ahouU
be its own agency in the matter, thereby
freely consenting to annual and prospect:
ive. Immigrants all desire information of
authenticated form, and insuring
them against all impositions, etc. He
recommends stringont and effectual legis
lation to prevent gross inequalities in
charges on some of the railroads, especial
ly at points where competition does not
insure proper oharges. He favors the
completion of the central water line by
the common government, and urges the
ithholding of no possible aid or encour
agement which might contribute to the
consummation of that great work. The
Governor makes numerous other recom
mendations looking to economy and im
provement in the State government. The
following extracts give an idea of the
Governor's views in regard to the politi
oal situation : Recent events create the
hope that the government of the
Union is to be brought back
the Constitution, its ancient
landmarks and traditions recovered and
respected, aud fraternal relations revived
throughout tho country. They cheer the
oppressed tod despondent Southern peo-
plo with the promise that the burthens
whioh have so long borne them down are
to be lifted off. The most auspicious day
for the honor and well being of the whole
country will be that in which the great
export-producing States are restored to
poaoe and productive energy, by being
restored to their constitutional rights and
relations. We may rest assured of success
as soon as the repeal or judicial amend
ment of all enforcement laws shall peace
fully relieve us from the harrassment and
apprehension of military and other coer
cion from without, and from tho inter
meddling of mere political adventurers
within. Uenoeforth let it be understood
by all, that the political equality of the
races is settled, and the social equality of
the races is a settled impossibility.

THE 8TIKERS BEING DEFEATED.
New York, December 2.—Nearly all the
ship owners who have been waiting for a
settlement of the Longshoremens’ difficnl
ties began work, loading and unloading,
in Brooklyn, Hoboken and Jersey City,
as well as New York, employing the non
society men in every instance. Some of
the heavier firms announce their inten
tion of never again employing Union men,
All speak well of the class of labor offer
ing, skilled Longshoremen being attract
ed from abroad, and large numbers of
men from the coal mining regions also
applying for work, which is readily fur
nished them. Occasional slight skirmishes
occur between the Longshoremen and
new laborers, bnt no Ferious difficulty.
Tho steamship and sailing vessel owners
are both confident that their troubles are
over.
Tho Convention of Longshoremen dol
egates, last night, resolved to rescind the
order for a general strike.

IMPORTANT SUBJECTS DISCUSSED—THB

CONGRESS — INVITATION TO
GOVERNOR KEMPEB.
Richmond, December 2.—In the Cheap
transportation Convention to-day, Col.
Frobel, of Georgia, resell report of the
Committee on Artificial Water Routes.
The report states the fact that the U.
S. Senate Committee on Transportation
reoommended the fonr water routes, en
dorsed by this Convention last year, and
then quotes, and adopts as its own the
Senate’s routes, viz: The James River and
the Kanawba Canal, the Great Tennessee
and Georgia Canal and the improvement
of the Mississippi river.
Resolutions were introduced to recom
mend Congress to extend such valuable
aid to the Texas Pacific Railroad as will
•eoure its speedy completion; to memori
alize Congress to prohibit under heavy
penalties all combinations between com*
peting lines of transportation, whether
by land or water. Referred to commit
tee.
Hon. J. C. Southall, of Virginia, pre
sented a suplemental report, in which he
argnad ably and at groat length against
the idea that railroads will
answer for heavy transportation, and in
sisted upon the necessity of the four great
water routes connecting the Mississippi
with the great lakes, and a central route
all railroad traffic crossing State lines;
that the sentiment of this convention
adverse to an increase of taxation upon
the people in the shape of interest cro&ted
by an Innssmi bonded debt; that Oon-
gvaaa be recommended to adopt a national
gangs of four feet eight end a half inches,
and that it offer sufficient inducements
for all trunk lines of two hundred miles
and over, to adopt this railroad gauge.
All were referred to the Committee on
Reeolutiona.
The oomraittee on natural water ways
of the South, not being preperod to re
port, Mr. F. G. Conant, of St. Louis,
submitted resolutions declaring that Con-
greas will be held to strict account for a
failure to make ample appropriation
„the jjpprvvawaut at fikfi watmtk
of the Mississippi river, and that
this subject cannot be too impressively
nrged upon that body, which were also
referred.
The chairman was appointed to wait on
Gov. Kemper and invite biin to visit and
address the Convention.

TWEED, AGAIN.
I
HE SUER OUT A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS,
BUT FAILS TO MAKE THB JUDOS “SEE
IT," AND IB REMANDED TO PBISON.
New Yobk, December 2.—Arguments
on a writ of habeas corpus granted to
Wm. M. Tweed wero heard to-day before
Judge Barrett in Oyer and Terminer
Conft, Dafid Dudley Field and ox-Judge
Comstock speaking on behalf of the
prisoner, and District Attornoy Phelps
for the people. The prisoner being
nnwell, was not brought into Court. The
District Attorney made a motion to quash
the writ on the ground that there was no
question as to tho Court which condemned
the prisoner being properly organized and
having inherent jurisdiction in-criminal
oases, and it was not for a judge of no
higher jurisdiction to review its proceed
ings. There was neither law, necessity
or precedent for such a course. There
fore, he asked that the writ be quashod
and the prisoner be remanded and left to
his remedy of error.
For the prisoner it was argued that
error was a slow proceeding, and prisouor
challenged the jurisdiction of the Court
to try the causo or pass the first of numer
ous sentences or any subsequent ones.
Tho first term has expired, and fine paid,
and prisoner challenged the jurisdiction
of the Court or its competency to pass
the second sentence ; and oIbo questioned
the mode of empanneling a jury, and
their competency to sit. These were ju
risdictional questions properly arising
under the habeas corpus.
Judge Barrett, in deciding, pointed out
that though there is a provision for inves
tigating the act of a civil court where it
exceeds jurisdiction, none is made iu the
case of Criminal Court, but the remedy
is by a writ of error, and the Judge
was not to review the acts of tho brother
Jndge sitting in the same Court. Writ
of error ought not to havo been grant
ed. Coart then granted the motion to
quash.
Later.
TWEZD REPORTED ESCAPED.
New Yobk, December 2.—A rumor,
requiring confirmation, was in circulation
this afternoon that Wm. M. Tweed has
escaped from the penitentiary.
ATROCIOUB MURDER.
AN INDIANA MAN GIVES HIS WIFE NO
CHANCE.
Terre Haute, Ind., December 2.—At
Gloverdale, in Putnam oonnty, a man
named Thomas Marlin became offended
at something said by bis wife, and gave
her three minutes to retract. At ‘the end
of that time he stood in the door of the
house and shot her with a pistol, the ball
takiug effect in her heAd, killing her in
stantly. A man named Stanton was in
the house and interfered to save the wo
man, when Martin shot him, the ball
taking effeot in the shoulder. He is ex
pected to die. The wife of Martin had
her babe when she was shot, and fell back
dead, claaping it in her arms.
It is not believed that Martin made any
charge of infidelity against his wife. He
had been trying to get rid of her, end had
offered her five hundred dollars if she
would consent to be divorced from him,
as he wanted to marry another woman.
After the shooting, Martin pretended
to be erazy, and went abont telling that
he had killed a man named Harris, whom
he had not touohed at all.
Thero is great excitement in Clover-
dale, and a strong probability that Martin
will be lynched to-night.
▲ Catholic Bishop on the Religious
Controversy.
New York, December 2.—A letter is
published iu the Ilerald from tho Bishop
of Richmond, Va., on the Gladstone-Man
ning controversy. He says that at the
Ecumenical Council in Rome, not one of
tho Bishops pro tent resisted the definition
of infallibility on the ground that it would
in the slightest degree, alter the relations
between temporal and spiritual powers.
He contends that whatever Gladstone may
say to the contrary, the very wording of
the definition strickly confines the Papal
prerogative to faith and morals. The
Pope does not wield in 1871, one jot more

FRANCE.
DISSENSIONS IN THE CABINET.
London, Dooember 2.—The Times' cor
respondent at Paris telegraphs in his last,
a letter that the Count DeGhambord haa
oau»ed a division in the Cabinet. Two
Legitimist Ministers, is consequence of
its injnnotions, hesitate to support the
demand for organization of the Preai-
dent's powers on aocount of this disagree
ment.
The terms of the Presidential massage
havo not yet been agreed to by the Cab
inet. The President will accept the res
ignation of tho dissenting Ministers, if
they remftja firm in their refusal.
THE FORTHCOMING MESSAGE OF PRESIDENT
M'MAHON.
Paris, Dooember 2.—A draught of the
message to be submitted to the Assembly
by MacMahon was read in the Council of
Ministers yesterday. A paragraph in the
message in regard to raising the state of
siege was energetically objected to by a
majority of the members, who claimed
that the maintenance of the state of siege
was necessary in conseqnenoe of recent
successes, and of the Radicals in the mu
nicipal eloctions at Paris and olenewhere
in the country. Several members of the
cabinet also objected to the manner in
which (he constitutional laws were men
tioned in the message. A fresh Counoil
to determine these questions is to be held
to-day.

THE COTTON CROP.
BETORT OF THE MEMPHIS COTTON KXOHANOB.
Memphis, December C.— 1 Tho Cotton
Exchange crop report for November,
issued this morning, gives the following
summary, derived from 107 responses
from West Teauesseo, North Mississippi
and Arkansas north of the Arkansas rivar:
Sixty-four report damage by frost aud
forty-three no damage. The average
damage by frost ia three and a half per
oent.; average decreaao in acreage, one
and a half per cont. Doe exertions are
being made to save the crop. The aver
age closing of the picking season last year
was January 14 th ; tkis'ycar it will close
about December 7th. The crop is being
marketed unprecedentedly fast.
The corn crop of this district is about
32 per ceut. short of tho average of the
past two seasons.
Tho aggregate of responses does not
indicate sny change in the morale of
laborers.
The prospect is that the entire crop will
be saved in better condition than ever
known.
The Committee are of the opinion that
the decrease of the cotton crop in this
district from IsHt year will bo about 8»
per cent.
between the Ohio rivor aud the Chesa
peake, by inflating their capital by wa-' power than he did in 104. In every age
and Tennessee, generally clear weather j tered steck, and also to oreate a court of j of the church be has exercised tho pre
will prevail, except near the Florida and commercial justioe, whose decision shall ‘ rogative of infallibility. The Council of
woHteru gulf coasts, with southeast to be subject to a review by the Supreme 1 the Vatican, in promulgating in 1870, the
southwest winds end slight ohanges in Court of the Unitod States ; that Congress J Pope’s infallibility, did not create a new
temperature and pressure. | should fix by law the maximum rates for | doctrine, but confirmed an old one.
