The Communication Tax.

The speech of Colonel T. W. Higgins
of the 73d Ohio Volunteer Infantry, de
liVered at jackson, Ohio, September 18th
at a reunion soldiers meeting, contains
a passage so pithy that it forces its way in
to our columns. The Colonel says on the
Communication tax:
"The Democratic party of the State OF
Ohio opposes the four dollar militia com
mutation tax, and declares that it is OP
pressiye and ought to be repealed. Now
if the Democracy of the State of Ohio had
been in the army, they would be exempt
from this tax; but as they all staid ct
home, and as they are almost the only
ones who have the tax to pay, in cOnse
quence of staying at home, they think IL
oppressive. Poor souls They are to be
pitied for their many and sore Affections
They can avoid paying this oppressive tax,
however, by joining the Ohio National
Guard, and drilling few days in the year,
and why don't they do it? They might
practice target-shOOting as 4 recreation,
if nothing else, for they must have a deal
of ammunition on hand, as they have eX
pended very little during the last four
years They have not burned scarcely any
powder in battle, and, save what was
used in shooting returned soldiers and
Provost Marshals, and what was eXpen
ded in rejoicing over Vallandigham's re
turn to Ohio, they must have their entire
stock of ordnance yet on hand. Let
them, by all means, join some military
organization, and save the oppressive tax
of four dollars, of which they complain
so much"

President johnson and the Fig.
Ure 4,

There is something remarkable in
the frequent recurrence of the figure
seven, in connection with the history
of President Johnson, and | have
taken trouble to note this circum-
stance, which may be of interest to
the public His name, Johnson, it
will be perceived, has seven letters in
it; he commenced to learn a trade at
II years of age, which is twice 7. He
served seven years at his trade, finish
ed his trade at 81 years of age, which
is three times T. He was elected an
alderman of the town of Greenville.
n. c., in 1928, making a multiple of
four times Z. He was elected to the
Legislature of Tennessee in 1885,
which is n multiple of five times T.
and was then aged 27. He was cleo
ted to Congress in 1S43, aged So,
which is five times Z. He was ap-
pointed the Military Governor of Ten
nessee on the 7th of March, 1862, and
was nominated for the Vice Presiden-
cy, in 1864, aged Sc, which is eight
times 7. To say the least, this is a
somewhat remarkable occurrence of q
single figure in one mans life. He will
no doubt be successful in bringing
back the original 7 Secession States,
and make the Union 7 times as strong
as 1t was before the rebellion.-COr

Treaty with the Indian Tribes
The Terms Of Il.

FoRT SMITH, ARKANSAS, Sept. 1.-THE
following tribes, to-day, signed the treaty
of permanent peace with the United
States, as represented by loyal delegates.
Osages, Seminoles, Creeks, Chickasaws,
Cowsdins, Senecas, Shawnees, Choctaws
and Quapaws.
The Treaty concludes as follows: 'The
undersigned do hereby acknowledge
themselves to be under the protection Of
the United States of America, and GOV
enant and agree that, herafter, they will.
in all things, recognize the Government
of the United States as exercising exec
utive Jurisdiction over them, and will not
enter into any allegienee or conventional
arrangement with any State, nation, pow
er or sovereign, whatever; that any trea-
ty of alliance for cession OF land, or any
act heretofore done by them, or any OF
their people, by which they renounce
their allegience to the United States, is
hereby revoked, cancelled and repudi-
ated."
In consideration of foregoing stipula-
tiors made by the respective nations
and tribes of Indians present, the United
States, through its Commissioners, prom
ises that it will re-establish peace and
friendship with all the nations and tribes
of Indians within the limits of the so
called Indian conutry, that it viii afford
ample protection for the security of the
persons and property of the respective
nation or tribes, and declares its willing
ness to enter into treaty to arrange and
settle all questions rela ting to and grow
ing out of former treaties with the said
nations, as affected by any treaty made
by the so-called Confederate States, AT
this Council, now convened for the pur-
pose, or at such times in future as may
be appointed.

Great National CURIOSITY,

From the Jacksonville (Oregon) Sentinel. Aug. r.
Several of our citizens returned last
week from q visit to the Great Sunk.
en- lake, situated in the Cascade Noun.
tains, about 75 miles northeast from
Jacksonville. This lake rivals the
famous valley of Sinbad the sailor
1t is thought to average 1000 feet
down to the water ali round. The
walls are almost perpendicular, run
ming down into the water and leaving
no beach. The depth of the water is
unknown, and its surface is smooth
and unrufled, as it lies so far below
the surface of the mountain that the
air currents do not effect it. Its
length is estimated at twelve miles,
and its width at ten. There is an
island in its center, having trees upon
it. No living man ever has, and
probably never will, be able to reach
the waters edge. 1t lies silent, still
and mysterious in the bosom of the
'everlasting hills" like a huge well
scooped out by the giant genii of the
mountains, in the unknown ages gone
by, and around it the primeval forests
watch and ward are keeping.
The visiting party fired rife sew
eral times into the water, at an angle
of 45 degrees, and were able to note
several seconds of time from the re-
port Of the gun until the ball struck
the water Such seems incredible,
but is vouched for by some of our
most reliable citizens The lake is
certainly a most remarkable curiOsi-
tY.

Democratic Chickens Coming
Home 10 ROOst.

! Let our friends who confront the Demos
| in battle array be not slow to poke them
with their history. Well furnish a recent
page or two. And first, and worst, that
renowned Chicago platform. 1t will
flourish in immortal youth" long after
many another political pronunciamento
written in better English shall siumber
in oblivion. Here is what it contains con-
cerning the war for the Union, to which
its authors now resort for their Guberna-
torial candidates. While the war was in
| full blast the National Democratic Con-
ventiOn.
Resolved, That, after four years of fail
ure to restore the Union bv the expert
ment of war, justice, humanity and lib
erty demand that immediate efforts be
made for a cessation of hOstilities with a
view to an ultimate convention of the
States, or other peaceable means, to the
end that at the earliest practicable mo-
ment peace may be restored.
At this same Convention of the De-
mocracy which Vallandigham thinks is
the only Union party out of Fortress
Monroe, voted down and repudiated the
following loyal resolution offered by Mr..
Washington Hunt:
LtcSOtOcu, IHdI III the lubuTes as IN Ine
past we will adhere with answering
fidelity to the Union and the Constitu-
ton, and insist upon maintaining the ma
tional unity as the only solid foundation
of our strength, security and happiness
as people, and as a framework of Gov
ernment equally conducive to the vel
fare and prosperity of all the States, both
Northern and Southern.
And upon motion of Wickliffe, of Ken
lucky, the National Convention of the
Democracy, held in the midst of the re-
cent war for the Union, passed the fol-
lowing:
ResOlved, That Kentucky expectso of the
Democratic President who loiH be elected
IN November nezt, that his first official act
shall be to throw open Abraham Lin
coins prison doors and let the captive
free.
A delegate moved TO amend by substi-
tuting political prisoners" for captives,
but the amendment was lost. Such are
some of the Democratic chickens that
have come home to roost, and "the cry
is still they come l"-Chieaqo Journal.

The Suffrage Question.

The n. Y. Herald has a telegraph dis
patch from Washington, which says:
Judge Lochrane and other Georgians
are in the city tonight, and represent
the work of reconstruction in that State
to be progressing rapidly and satisfactori-
ly to all Union men. Lochrane has made
speeches IN different parts of the State
since the appointment of Mr.. johnson
as Provisional Gov, and everywhere ta-
ken strong ground in favor ofrecognizing
the Abolition of Slavery, the first that the
negro IS a free man instead Of a free negro, the
necessity and rightfulness of his being
admitted a competent witness in civil and
craminal proceedings, the impOssibility
of colonizing him elsewhere against his
will, and IN favOr of abrogatiag distinction on
dccOa1lt of color. He is confident the peO-
pie of Georgia will accede to all these con-
ditions and settle the principle of the ne
groes' right to vote, subject to such res
trictions as are imperatiVely demanded.
"The Southern men at present in Wash
ington coincide in the belief that the tran
sition from Slave to Free Labor in their
respective States will produce little troub-
le. There is a widespread repugnance
to comforting on negroes the Right of SUf-
frage; but this feeling is rapidly giving 10qy
TO one Of bToade- stdteSma1lShip. 1t is be-
ieved to be to the interest of the South
to retain the negroes, and to guarantee
them such rights and protection as lViH seelTs
their friendship and prevcnt antagOnisms Of
race. 1t is urged that, if immediate suf-
frage were given the blacks, that several
of the Southern States would have negro
majorities and negro Congressman, and
thereby prevent White immigration, and
compel its emigration, and thus make
them essentially negro State Governmets.
To prevent this, it is argued that the ne
gro population of the Southern States
should be put on probation, White immi-
grafton encouraged, and the preponder-
ance of White voters insured before es-
tablishing Universal Suffrage. Many far
seeing Southern men recognize Negro Suf-
frage as only a question af time, and desire
to obviate 25 years of fierce and needless
agitation throughout the country by con-
ceding the principle HOv."
We venture to say that here IS more
craftsmanship, more practical wisdom,
condensed into that synopsis of Judge
Lochrane's views on the vexed question
than was ever embodied in ten-column
speech of any Yancey or Wise. May we
not hope that the South has many such
councillors as Judge Lochrsne? and her
people will hear and heed them ?-POr-
tGge County Democrat.

Important to Discharged on.
RRPS.

Many officers, on leaving the service,
were permitted to make affidavit that
they were not indebted to the Govern
ment in any manner whatever. and that
they had rendered proper returns for the
same. The Government did this in order
that officers might get paid at time of
muster-out OF commands to which they
belonged without having to wait months
to secure their certificates of non-indebt-
edness before they could have received
final payment. The authorities haye
found out that many officers have made
affidavit of their non-indebtedness who
have not rendered their proper returns
to the various Departments.
The matter is now about to be taken
up, and will be thoroughly sifted, and Of
ficers now out of service will have to ac-
count for their negligence of this duty
the same as if they were still in the SER
vice. 1t is a very foolish idea on the part
of an officer who has been responsible,
that such responsibility ceases because
he has received final payment. If such
officer has been so paid, and is found to
be short on his returns, he viii be con-
sidered as having obtained payment un-
der false pretenses, and will be held to
the charge of perjury. Where certificate
of non-indebtedness does not exist in the
Departments at Washington, an order
will probably be issued for the arrest of
the delinquent, who will be forwarded to
Washington, under guard, by Provost
Marshals.
All interested should look immediate
ly to this important subject.
