Some years ago there was bill irtrcdnced
in tie Georgia Legislature to lay tax Of ten
dollars a year Oh all jackasses. Some appreci-
atve members proposed to amend it 50 as to
include lawyers and doctors. The amend
ment was accepted, and, admidst much
jocularity, the bill passed. Several efforts
have since been made. to repeal it, but in vain,
and to this day all jackasses, lawyers and
doctors are obliged to pay a yearly tax of ten
dollars.

4 Magnificent Project.

To some of the merchant princes and mil
Eonaircs OF New York Is credited the con
temptation Of Il project AZ once muniicent,
generous and grand. The plan is to present
to the United States Government $1,000
G00.0GG ani thus relieve the nation of the
public debt. 1t is proposed to make the gift
III 200.0G0 shares of $4,000 each, of which
4. I. Stewart, William Il. Astor and others
will each take fifty shares, making up Il,
least a quarter of the whole amount in New
York The realization Of such 4 project
would place both Government and citizens
in aprouder position than ever Government
or citizens occupied before. History gives
70 parallel To such an act. The Venetians
held III grateful remembrance the Game OF
a man who. by a lifetime OF personal sacri-
Gcc and hard faced usury, obtained means to
relieve the Republic from its fnanca! bur
dems, and placed it again on the road to pros
pcrity after a long and disastrous war.

fact all the elements that characterize q most

II was ever his pride to render to the needy,

From the Memphis Bulletin, Oct. 20.

From the Memphis Bulletin, Oct. 90
Ion. D. T. Patterson, United States Senator
from Tennessee was long known in the Eas.
tern division Of the State as an unpretcnd.
ing, honest, clear-beaded Circuit Judge. He
stood aloof from all partizan conflicts, and
devoted bimself to his duties as q jurist.-
When the rebellion was inaugurated. Judge
Patterson did nothing more than continue
to discharge his accustomed duties. He sat
upon the bench as naturally, and not more
culpably, than the neighboring farmer
un!onis., stood at the plough handles. He
assented in practice to power he could not
resist If any one believes that Judge Pat.
terson was a rebel, be need only refer to the
Knoxville Register of 1862, in which ap-
pear Sundry disquisitions Of pattersons I" in
fidelity" Patterson held the Office of Judge
for his own and the benefit of men con-
curing with him in sentiment. Hence the
complaints Of the Register. We remember
these facts and hope that some East Tennes~
scean will Reproduce copies Of the Register
of the years mentioned. Patterson's name
often appears in that defrnct newspaper.
Judge Patterson is an industrious, thought
ful man, Of unimpeachabc integrity of great
industry, and thoroughly convsrsnnt with
the interests Of bis State. lie is generous to
a fault, in thought and act. No citizen of
Tennessee, Rebel or UnionSt, has ever ap-
piled in vain to Judge Patterson for assis-
tance, for any commendable purpose. His
integrity is spotless, and we must be permit
mtted to condemn, as it desesves, the foul
aspersion sought to be fastened upon his rep
utation by the Chicago Tribune and those
who now charge that he has played falsely
either to the South or North. lie was true
to himself and bis convictions Of duty. For
this, neither South nor North can esteem
him less

Family CourtesieS.

In the family, the law Of pleasing ought to
extend from the highest to the lowest. You

ers and kind husbands. Ifyou had seen them
in their own house you would have thought
that they were angels almost; but IL you, had
seen them in the street, or in thostore, or any
where else out Of the house, you would have
thought them almost demonac. But the ops
posito is apt to be the case. When wears
