WASHINGTON* PUBLIC BUILDINGS, APPROPRIATIONS, ETC, Washington, December 2.—Mullett’ report on sites for proposed public build ings at Helena and Little Rock have been purchased. It was necessary to resort to condemna tion to secure the property at Grand Rapids. Iu many instances Northern appropria tions are inadequate, the prices assessed undor condemnation being in excess. Memphis has presented property to the Government for public buildings valued at $800,000. The old custom-house lot at Norfolk was sold at auction. The custom-house, oourt-house and post-office at Knoxville have been com pleted within the appropriation. The buildings at Columbia, 8. C., will be completed within the present year. Recommendations regarding the cus tom-house at New Orleans are renewed. Special attention is called to the remod eling and exteuding the custom-boose at Pensacola. Quartermaster Meigs’ report states that railroad companies, principally in the Sontb, owe the Government seven and • half millions. 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 LONGSHOREMEN. Washington, Doc. 2.—Probabilities.— For the South Atlantic and Gulf States 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. TRANSPORTATION. CHEAP TRANSPORTATION CC MENTION. IMPORTANT SUBJECTS DISCUSSED—THB OBEAT CANALS—TEXAS PACIFIC BAIL BOAD—NATIONAL GUAQB—DUTY OF 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. lleceaa till 8 p. M. 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 FOREIGN. 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. TURKEY. A VIZIEQ SUES AN EDITOR FOB LIBEL—WILL WONDERS NEVER CEASE ? London, Deccember 2.—A special to the Daily Hews from Constantinople states the Grand Vizier has sned the edi tor of the suppressed Ijcvant Herald for defamation of character, aud that in the eveut of his condemnation, the Turkish Government will apply to the British Embassador for the editor's expulsion from the country. London, December 2.—A Berlin dis patch to the Times says Rusnia contem plates the reassembling next March in St. Petersburg of tho International Law Conference, latoly held in Brussels. Ex ertions will probably bo made to seouro the consent of Great Britain and some minor States. The work of conference will be confined to tho enaotment of moro purely philanthropic classes of progress. —the programme proposed by Russia. If these endeavors fail, the three North ern Powers may possibly settle the matter alone. CUBA. GOLD BROKERS DRIVEN FROM THE STREETS — MORE FIOHTINO BETW EEN TOE SPAN ISH TROOPS AND INSURGENTS. Havana, December 2.—The police, as sisted by a force of volunteers, forcibly drove the gold brokers off the streets to day. On tho 20th nit. a Spanish force en countered a body of Insurgents much su perior in number. A stubborn fight en sued, in which the Spaniards lost forty- six in killed and wounded. The Insur gents’ loss is unknown. Reports from other sections of tho island represent that there have been other slight engagements, causing small loss. MARKETS. RY TELEGRAPH TO ENRUIRBR.

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.
