The INTERNAL REvENUE.-The entire
revenue receipts from internal taxes, from the
first day Of last July up to the 18th instant,
amounted to $8O,479,50 This far exceeds
expectation. The receipts now range from
one and half to one and three-quarter mil
lions per day. From the South, returns of
internal revenue are beginning to be made
also, and the collector at Augusta reports
100000, and the collector at Macon $780,
900 in the past three months, all, however,
from taxes on cotton. The collector at Mont
gomery, Alabama, reports that 100,0Gfrfoales
of cotton will have been sent to market from
that district alone in a short time.

aE- The Montgomery (Ala.,) Mail, frn-
ishes us with the following letter, which does
honor to the writer, and transmits to coming
generations, a record Of Aeroism unsurpassed
in the annals of war:
GRATITUDE AND GALLANTRY.
Troy N. Y, Sept. L, 1865.
To the Editors Of the Montgomery Mail:
S1Rs-On the I'd of April, while the con.
flict for the possession of Petersburg was rag
ing, the undersigned had the misfortune to be
shot down between the lines, near battery five.
The fire from both sides swept the ground
where / lay, the works not being over one hun
bred yards apart So terrible was this fire,
that wounded men in cases received as many
as forty bullets in their bodies after falling.
The prospect of such death was agonizing
I appealed to the Confederates near whose
works / fell to bring me into their trenches !:
but my appeals were in vain, until young
staff officer-an aid to some General on the
hnes-aided by two noble privates at the emf
nent risk of their lives, leaped their breast
works, and amidst terrible fire brought me
into their lines The Lieutenant and one
private escaped unhurt; but the other Alaba-
milan fell victim to his daring.
In the heat of battle I could only find from
my captors that the young officer was a Lieut.
Jones of Gen. Gordon's staff, and my intor-
mant thought was from Alabama.
Having heard of your paper, and its being
published at the capital of the State, has led
me to ask you to insert this in your paper. If
he is among the living, q could never learn
his fate in the battles on the retreat,) this may
meet his eye. He has the consciousness of
HAVING DONE GALLANT ACT, and the graft
tude and prayers of a Union soldier.
Very respectfully yorurs,
M l.. FARNHAM,
Lieut.. 10th N. Y Heavy Artillery.

DEATH OF AN AGED MERCHANT. =
VIM. Brine, Esq, died on the 2Sth of
September, at Greenvilie, S. G. The
deceased was by birth native of
Scotland, and possessed the industry,
energy, and business sagacity which
generally characterizes the natives of
North Briton. He came to this coun-
try in early life, and done business for
many years, in Broad street, under
the firm of WIN. & Geo. Birnie, and
afterwards Of Birnie & Ogilvie. For
some years he has been President of
the Bank Of South Carolina, and held
it up to a late period, when he retired
entirely from all business pursuits, in
consequence of his advancing years

eighty years Of age.-CharIeston Neaos.

FELLow-CITIzENs: After much hesitation,
have consented to be put in nomination
for yonr Representative in the Congress Of
the United States. Ipublish this card, be-
cause the District is so large and the time
before the election so short that l could
not, if desired, canvass the District. If a
canvass were possible, however, I do not
think it becoming or desirable. In my
judgment, this is no time for scramble for
office. 1t seems to me that no one proper
ly impressed with the solcmnity of the
crisis, and the delicacy and Importance of
the duties to be discharged, could seek the
position merely for the qualification Of per-
sonal ambition. For myself, declare that
I have no-vish but to serve the State.
In 17S9, South Carolina, through q con-
vention Of her people, became one Of the
United States. She remained a member Of
the Union until December, 1860, when,
through another convention Of her people,
she repealed the Ordinance Of 1888, scccd-
ed from the United States, and with ccr-
tain other sister States entered into another
government known as the Confederate
right to secedc and that our security re-
quired its exercise in corporation with our
Southern sisters. South Carolina, in 1852,
proclaimed by solemn ordinance the right
Of secession. 1t had long been the settled
opinion Of the State that she was sovereign
and entitled to all the rights Of sovereignty.
She asserted seK-government in order to
secure her institutions and principles from
great evils, believed to be imminent. Sc
