ANswER.-Cotton can be moved within
collection district without permit or bond,
but if it is removed out of the district where
produced, must be assessed and properly
marked, and the tax paid, or a bond given
to the assessor in double the amount of tax,
before it can be moved. This State has
been divided recently into eight collection
districts, but until the new districts are or
ganized, which has not yet been done, the
second district embraces all that portion of
the State lying east Of the Tennessee river
not organized and cotton in the counties
lying east Of the river may be moved to
Nashville without any difficulty or him
drance. All brandy made of fruit in the
hands Of the distiller, on the LIST of Septem-
Der, the tax not having been previously paid,
is subject to 81 per gallon tax, and the tax
may be paid to the local deputies, or to the
collector at the principal Office in Nashville.
1t is highly important that all spirits should
be branded according to law, or it is liable
to seizure wherever found

Only n QaesiIOn OF Fact.

President JOHNSON and General GRANT
are agreed that the Southern States are in
the Union and entitled TO Immediate repre-
sentation. Such representation, they feel
confident, win be productive Of good TO the
whole Uniont The Radicals declare those
States are not in the Union, or if in the
Unioh are not entitled to representation.
This is simply question of fact, the Radi-
cal newspapers declare, and that It involves
no contest between the President and the
Radicals in Congress. 1t does involve 80
much of acontest, however, that they pro-
pose to raise committee to Investigate af-
fairs in the South for the purpose of dis
crediting the President and General GRANT.
The very proposition to raise such commit
tee is calculated and intended to raise the
suspicion, that they are capable of an at
tempt to impose uponthe people falsehood
in nregard to the absorbing question OF the
hour; and the President cannot reeede from
the position he has taken-that all that is
now needed to complete the work Of Reor-
ganization, is to admit the Southern States
to their Representation in Congress and to
devise a properly adjusted system of taxa
tion-without thereby coneeding that he
was guilty of purpose to deceive the pec-
pie of the adhering States in regard to the
condition of affairs in the lately insurgent
States His reputation for veracityis in
yolyed, and it comes within the range Of
reason to suppose that he will do all that
man can do to olmaintainit. as1EtiicsIg3 p,

MEETING or THE CouErY suPERIYTEyD.
Exrs OF PEvNsrLvAxfA.--A meeting Of the
county saperintendents Of Pennsylvania has
been called by the State Superintendent, to
be held in Harrisburg, at o'clock on the af-
ternoon of the 4th Of December, TO continue
in session three days. Mr. Coburn, the late
State Superintendent, assigned some time
since a number of topics to different Superin-
tendents, and requested written reports upon
them. Its expected that those will be read,
and that the Subjects treated Of viii be dis
cussed. In this connection the whole work
of the county superintendency can be re-
viewed, and the School Department viii be
able to give such instructions as seem to be
called for.
In addition to this, the new Superintendent
viii ask the Convention to resolve itself into
kind OF Executive Session. at i,ast every
forenoon, for the purpose Of enabling the
School Department TO learn the views Of the
Superintendents and Of the people through
out the State on the following points, in
which changes in the law or in the practical
operation Of it have been thought Of
l. The minimum length of time the Schools
should be kept open.-Should it be increased
to five Oh six months
2. Uniformity of Text t-books in countless
Should provision be made in the law fol
effecting such uniformity
8. County aid to Teachert' Institututes. -
Should the law now in existence in eight
counties be made general?
T. Provisional Certificates. they
be dispensed with? If not what changes
should be made in the policy now practiced
in regard to granting them.
s. Renewing and Endorsing Certificates
by County Superintendents.-Is it good poll
cy to renew and endorse them?
6. District Superintendents. Should there
be a genersl law providing for their appoint
ment2
7. District Institutes.-What can be done
to increase their number
8. Branches of Study required by law
Should additions or substitutions be made
1t is hoped that all Superintendents viii
come prepared to represent the wishes oi
their several counties in regard to these sub
jeets by voice, and if called upon by vote.
