ming, aud will make this his permanent
home. One of his soldiers. in a letter to this
paper. dated at Camp Harker, near Nash

Our gallant Lieut.. Col. w. d. Williams has
been recommended for breyet colonel by Brig

for long, arduous and gallant services since the
commencement OF the war. He has commanded,
IN the capacity of captain, major and lieutenant
colonel of our regiment, two of the three years
we have been in the service. He has command ed
and led the seth in every battle, sklrmish, march,
been engaged the most memorable of which

Rocky Face Ridge Pickett's Mill, Daller, Kene
saw Mountain, Peach Tree Creek, Atlanta, Jones'.
boro, Loveioy Station, Franklin, and Nashville,
and 1t does seem as though breyet a mighty
cheap and inadequate reward for such services.
The people OF this county well remember
that Col. Williams was the first man to vol
unteer, in this county. under the first CALL in
April 1861. for rs, 900 men. and that he con-
tinued TO fight the rebellion until it was put
down,-the Union restored. and his regiment
mustered out. few days ago.
Col Williams is good lawyer. but we are
not posted Us to what business ne intends to
engage in. We wish him success in any
thing he undertakes.

best known remedy for Headache, Cold in the
Head, Snuffes, Imperfect Voice, Bronchitis, and
Catarrh. Few persons appreciate the diseases
arising from disordered nasal organs. Sight

by cold in the head. The gas generated by the
use of this snuff cleanses the entire head and

Franzosische strasse, Berlin, Prussia My
3Oth of June. I shall use my best endeaVor to
make nv administration national, and not par
tisan. Perverting power or influence to par
tisan ends is only less criminal than attempt
ipg the nations life. Our nation has come out
of its four years struggle for existence
strengthened and purified, and with a capacity
for growth in the future unparalleled in his
tory. [ am pleased to hear from so intelli-
gent an observer as yourself that the fact that
our Government is Government of the peo-

In response to an inquiry from the Secretary
of the Treasury, the Attorney General has
given and published the following decision:
"Persons having resigned commissions in
the naval service of the United States and ac-
copied employment in the rebel service, Wheth-
er born in a foreign country, if they have been
naturalized, or in the United States, are, II
otherwise qualified, competent, according to
the act ofJune %, 1865, to be officers OF vessels
the United States. If they were citizens be-
fore they engaged in rebellion they did not
lose their citizenship by becoming traitors.
They become liable to suffer the pains and pen
alties which the law infcts upon convicted
traitors but [ am not aware that forfeiture OF
citizenship is one Of those pains and penalties.
Belonging as they do, according to statement
in your letter to certain class Of traitors who
who have not been pardoned by the President,
they are liable at any time to be tried, convicted
and punished for their treason. Their conduct
and association also impressed upon them the
qualified character of enemies, but did not de-
stroy their character as citizens, which by birth
or otherwise they acquired.

There should be united effort to prevent Tue
fulflment of the prediction that Alexandra
will be mere way station on the route to BAL
timore" We have heavy odds to contend
against, we know, in the preponderatlns ~
huence of Baltimore, in the competltlon 1oi
trade, but we should be- glad to see such arrange
ments made, if possible, aswould enable Aleza.'
to hold her own, after the sacrifices made by
her in behalf of the construction OF the hnes
of R. r., leading to this place. Inc interests ;
Of the Roads, as Stock companies, are ol
course. to be regarded but there are Alezan,
dua interests, also, which should be guarded
and protected. It is natural that the people
here should not desire to see, what they con-
t.;buted largely to build, turn out, at last; as
likely to enure, principally, to the benefit OF
other cities.
We are informed thatthe President OF the
Alexandria Canal is now, and has been, tor a
long time past making efforts to secure to
the Company the use of the Aqueduct and
Canal, and earnestly striving to effect the re-
opening of the Coal trade. The whole matter
is under the control Of Quarter Master General
