Answer
TO "WIIAT Is.lT" OF LAST WEEK
a burning Candle.

ED- 1t may be stated, with reference to the
recent dispatch to the Mobile +" Advertiser"
touching the Withdrawal of troops from Ala
bama and Georgia, that in acting upon the
application of Governor Parsons of Alabama,
for withdrawing the troops and for arming the
local militia Of the State, Gen. Grant has made
the following reply:
For the present, and until there is full
security for equitably maintaining the rights
and safety of all classes Of citizens in the States
lately in rebellion, | would not recommend
the withdrawal of United States troops from
thence. The number Of interior garrisons
might be reduced, but movable force suf-
ficient to insure tranquility should be retained.
While such force is retained in the South
doubt the propriety of putting arms in the
hands of the militia"

The Internal Revenue.

No attempt will be made, for the present,
to collect the taxes due the United States, in
this section. The officers are waiting to see
whether Congress intends to liberalize or re-
peal the test oath. Meantime, the belief is
general that change will be made by Con-
grcss in the present revenue laws-not to les
sen the income thercfrom--bu but to make the
tax on tobacco, whskey, cotton, and pctrole-
um, produce the greater portion.
