AN IMPORTANT LIBEL CAse.-An inyes-
tigaton has been going on at the Tombs for
several days in regard TO libel which had
neatly resulted in the destruction OF an extent
sive concern in Columbus, Mississippi. II
seems that some two years OF more since,
several merchants combined together and
sent gentleman named Samuel + Church
TO The State of Mississippi to inquire into The
standing ofseveral large concerns. Soon af-
ter printed circular was sent 10 merchants
in this city, Boston and Philadelphia, stating
that The firm of Taylor, Hall 81 Murdoch, OF
Columbus, was insolveni, and also reaecring
severely upon the moral character of Mr..
Taylor.
The credit Of the house was seriously aE
lecied by this circular, and il was only, by
most strenuous exertions and great sacrifice
that they were enabled TO recover from the
shock. Having wealhered the storm and
placed themselves on u sure foundation, they
now seek reparation, from Mr.. Church for
the injury done them.- Several merchants
have already been examined with view of
oh aiming possession Of copy ofthe circ'-
lar, but whether il has been accomplished
or not, we are no, positively inforned.-[N.

FROM MONTERREY The New Orleans Ma
tional has letter from Monterey. dated Au:
gust 23lh, from which we extract the fol-
lowing,-lhe only paragraph of interest:
Some fiend in human shape last night,
made terrible illustration oil" "a little mora
grape Captain Bragg" Tor he placed under
the oed OF the gallant soldier an s inch bomt-
shell, with train leading oil by which il was
igniied. The explosion was terrific, but lor-
Iunately the Captain received no injury
Two Of the missiles went through his bed
without touching him. His escape is look.
cd upon as miraculous, The contents OF the
shell having been scattered around for a hun
dred yards. No cause Is assigned for this
attempt upon Capt Bragg's life, except thai
some oi his men think he is too severe in his
discipline. This is the second attempt upon
his life.

From the National IntelIigencer.


GENERAL TAYLoR.-We have received from
DIR. Bronson, the gentleman to whom it was
addressed, copy of the following letter from
Gen. TAYLOR, with request for its insertion
in the lntelligencer-a request which we cheer
fully and readily comply with:
HEADQUARTERS, ARMY OF OCCUPATION,
Camp near Monterey, August 10, 1917.
SR:-Yours letter ofthe 18th ultimo, reques-
ting of me an exposition of my views on the
questions of national policy now at issue be-
tween the political parties of the UnitedStates,
has duly reached me.
l must take occasion to say that many of my
letters, addressed to gentlemen in the United
States in answer to similar inquiries, have al
ready been made public, and | had greatly hop
ed that all persons interested had, by this time,
obtained from them a sufficiently accurate
knowledge of my views and desires in relation
to this subject As it appears, however, that
such Is not the case, deem it proper, in reply
to your letter, "distinctly to repeat that am
not before the people of the United States as n
candidate for the next Presidency" 1t is nv
great desire to return at the close of this war to
the discharge of those professional duties and
to the enjoyment of those domestic pursuits
from which | was called at its commencement
and Tor which my tastes and education best fit
me.
deem it but due to candor to state, at the
same time, that, If | were called to the Presi-
dental Chair by ''the general voice Of the peo-
pie, without regard to their political differen-
ces," should deem it to be my duty to accep;
the office. But while freely avow my attach
ment to the administrative policy of our carly
Presidents, desire it to be understood that
cannot submit, even in thus accepting it, to the
exactlon OF any other pledge as to the course
should pursue than that of dischargingits func-
tions to the best of my ability and strictly in
accordance with the requirements of the con-
stitution.
have thus given you the circumstances un-
high and responsible office of President of the
United States. | need hardly add that l can
not in any case permit myself to be brought
pfefiore the people exclusively by any af the POI
tlcai parties tIat ,.s.fostunately divide
our country, as their candidate for this Office.
II affords me great pleasure, in conclusion,
fully to concur with you in your high and lust
estimate of the virtues, both of head and heart,
OF the distinguished citizens. [Messrs. CLAW.
Webster, Adams, McDuffie, and Calhouni
mentioned in your letter. 81 have never vet
exercised the privilege of voting; but had l
been called upon at the last Presidential cleo
ton to do SO, | should have certainly have cast
my vote for Mr.. CLAY"

MARYLAND ELEcTIoNs.-Weh have returns from
only part Of the State. 1t is announced by
Telegraph from Pittsburg at 10 o'clock on Sat-
urday, that the Democrats have carried the city
of Baltimore, and the complexion of the returns
thus far received from the State, are most fa-
vorable to that party. Chapman, Whig, and
McLane, Democrat, are elected to Congress
from the two first Districts, which are the only
ones heard from.
