The daily mountaineer. (Dalles, Or.) 1861-1866, 1865-02-26

Gov. Brown, of Georgia, denies indignant
ly, the statement recently made in the rebel
Congress that there was fifteen thousand ex-
empts from military service in Georgia, He
says that of that number of State militia,
are in the service except l ,430 made up of
judges, sheriffs, tax collectors, &C., who are
absolutely necessary to the maintenance of
the State Government, and a large proper
tion of whom are over fifty years of age. He
says that the largest part of the militia are
made up of boys between l6 and II, and old
men from so to 55 He is quite angry that
jeff. Davis forbade the Georgia troops to
come home to the defence of their native
State, and asks whether, while nearly fifty
regiments of Georgans are endeavoring to
defend Richmond, he ought to turn over also
his State officers, old men and boys. The
above facts, which are embodied in letter
from the Governor to Mr. Staple, of Virginia,
are sufficient refutation of the boasts of
the Richmond Wing and other rebel journals,
that the South has still large white force
not yet called into the field.

MORE ABOUT THE SCHOOL EXHIBITION.
Those who witnessed the exercises
at Moody's Hall on Friday evening
will admit thas Dalles City is throng.
ed with youth of more than ordinary
mind and intelligence. The exercises
consisting of charades, proverbs, dec
lamations and orations, were very
creditable to the scholars and display.
ed much care and skill on the part OF
the teachers. But we would suggest
that dialogues of love-making, elope.
ments, &C., are not calculated to infuse
into the minds Of the young the most
practical and useful ideas. The young
folks of this country certainly require
no incentive to that kind of thing.
Girls ofthirteen or fourteen, years will
learn soon enough when is the right
time to faint, and the boys are suffic-
iently apt in catching their graceful
forms without that being made part
of their school education. We further
question the propriety of selecting the
most abusive political speeches for
defamation. Children should not be
educated to bitterness and hatred of
those who oppose them in political in
clinations.
FIRE ALARM.A-The alarm of fire
last evening was caused by the burn

The Courier deS EtatS UntS of re.
cent date speaks OF the late William
l.. Dayton in these terms: "The con
ciiatory character of this diplomatist,
his perfectly distinguished manners,
had acquired for him, at Paris, the
sympathies of all who were brought
in contact with him. We doubt not
that in the French governmental cir
cles his unexpected death has inspired
profound regret"
TIE copperbeads, during the late
political contest, asserted that they
desired the election of Mcclellan 10
restore peace to the country. They
are aiding Louis Napoleon and Maxi
milan to establish an Empire on Re-
publican soil 10 obtain the same kind
OF peace they sought to obtain by the
election of McClellan-a peace based
upon the ruin Of the country, and
destruction Of tho Union.

ness. lie reached here, however, on Wed.
nesday evening, very much unfecbled, but
able TO open Court on Thursday.
The Grand and Petty juries were organ
lied on Thursday, and the charge given to
the former the same day, and they have
gone regularly to business.
Quite a number of Attorneys are in at

W. Ferris, and Ami Bradshaw Of Ellis,
District Attorney, Ed. Hovenkamp, and j.
W. Terrell, Esqs., of Tarrant, Judge Bates,
Of Collin; besides ourown attorneys, Messrs.

We understand the Secretary Of the
Treasury has ordered, that all articles in
the states lately in rebellion, which can be
shown TO have been manufactured before
the establishment Of the Internal Collection
Revenue Districts in which they are found
shall lie held free from the present assess
ment or collection Of tax, while the same
remains in the state In which they are man
ufactured. This order was superinduced
by the financial condition OF the South, the
want Of information in regard 10 the re-
quiroments Of the Revenue laws, and other
reasons. This is but another evidence of
the generous disposition of the government
towards the people Of the South, now that
the war is over, and the strife ended

We published some days since headdress
Of the Hon. John II. Reagan, to the people
of Texas. We learn thai Judge Reagan
acknowledges that much leniency has been
shown him. lie has during his confinement
studied the whole Bible, and has written
the memories Of his early life, for the BEN
cit Of his children. lie has applied to the
President for pardon, and asked the friend
~ interposition of Governor Hamilton
All this is right, and we trust that we shall
see him restored to his country a wiser and
better man. One who will not be again
driven from his devotion TO the Union.
Judge Reagan has made IN effort to com
municate with Judge Paschal: but the priv
ilege had not yet been granted. Vice Pres
ilent Stephens is allowed full communica-
ton with his friends, and Stephens and
Reagan are allowed constant il tcrcourse.--

Levy, & Co. Waxahachie, who have just re-
ceivcd, at the old stand of ALgclman and

of all kinds ever brought to that place.
From their advertisement, We should judge
that one cannot call for anything they
haven't got. They invite the patronage of
Planters and dealers and as their stock is
bought from first hands, they can ohier SUI
pcrior inducements. They also buy Cotton,
Wool, Hides, Flour, 81. and pay the high
