PULSE DEscRIBER.-The sphymograph
is an instrument TO measure and register
the movement Of the blood in the arteries,
and it gives the physician great help IN
the conclusions which he now draws from
feeling the pulse. The instrument con-
sists essentially Of a long, light wooden
lever, which is so arranged as to press on
the artery Of the forearm by a very deli
cate steel spring. The distant extremity
OF the lever terminates in a fine point,
touching q plate Of smoked glass, and this
plate is moved along at an equsble rate
BY clockwork. Each movement Of the
side or wall Of the artery determines, OF
course, an increased movement in the ter
minal point Of the lever, and this, acting
on the smoked surface Of the plate, pro-
duces a series OF markings which register
with unerring accuracy the number, the
force and duration Of the arterial pulsa-
tons. Every physician knows how
vaguely the term soft, hard, full and
thready pulse are often used, and how
different are the powers Of different men
in estimating delieately these distinctions
BY their touch. Any instrument Of pre-
cision, then, such as this, which eliminates
errors depending on coarseness Of tactile
sensibility, must be hailed with satisfac-
ton. Doubtless, improvements will be
made in it, so as to render il more easy OF
use and more delicate in its mechanism.

STATE NEWS.

The Grand Jury Of Robertson county,
Just adjourned pays high compliment to
Judge CAMPBELL, and the Attorney Gener-
al for the able and impartial manner in
which they have discharged their respective
duties. They add:
eve feel that it is due TO the people of
this county, to say few words in their be-
half, in as much, as their morals have been
so bitterly assailed in some of the Radical
papers, whose object we do not believe was
intended to increase either the morals, pros
perity or happiness of the people, but to try
to keepup confusion and military rule overus.
Now, we can say truthfully, and hon
estly, and without the fear of successful con-
tradiction from any source whatever. First,
That large majority of us were born in
this county, and have spent the whole of our
lives in it, and that the remainder have for
a number of years resided here; and sec
ondly, we say upon honor, that we have
never seen the morals of the people better,
nor people more willing to obey law and
order, and one strong evidence of this, is the
small amount of business we have had be-
Co. 49, -
The Springfield Register says: The
wheat crop in this section, which has been
commenced to be harvested, is proving
better yield, of a first rate quality, than was
hoped for three weeks ago. The average be-
ing considered as we are informed some
thing more than half of an average crop.
The Chattanooga Union, of Sunday, has
the following: We are informed by General
TRoTTER, the Superintendent of Refugees,
that considerable amount Of restitution eI-
lists among the whites in neighboring coun-
ties. The General is doing his utmost to al
leviate the suferings of the multitude, but
the provisions of the Government are so re-
stricted in such cases as to render the de-
mand for assistance greater than the supply.
As had been noticed, the race between
Col. JAMES Claybank and a nag from Nash
vile, called "Sam," came off yesterday af-
ternoon at the course in the vicinity Of Fort
Wood. The distance was six hundred yards,
and the track in good order. At o'clock
the horses appeared at the stand, both in
good condition, and got off well together,
the Clay bank leading about a half length,
which position he held until within a hun
dred yards of the judges stand, when Sam
closed with apparent ease, and passed his
competitor, and won the race by length
and half. There was a large concourssin
attendance, and it is said a considerable
amount of greenbacks changed hands.

MIR. LINCOLN AND THE CONFEDE-
RATE LEGISLATURE OF VIRGINIA.

Immediately after the fall of Richmond,
it was announced by Gen. WEITzEL, that the
Legislature of Virginia would be allowed to
assemble. Subsequently orders were issued
prohibiting that body from assembling.
The following is the telegram of Mr.. LIN
colin, now first made public, upon which
the latter order was based It's value as a
historical document would be greatly en-
HANGED by the publication of the paper
which Mr.. LINCOLN gave Judge CAMPBELL,
authorizing the assemblage. That how
ever, has never been given to the public:
OFFICE UNITED STATES MILITARY TELEGRAPH
WAR DEP WASHINGTON, ID. c. Apr. u, 1866. J
MAJOR General Veitzell, Richmond Va:
| have Just seen Judge CAMPBELI's letter
to you of the eth. He assumes, as appears
to me, that ] have called the insurgent
Legislature of Virginia together, as the
rightful Legislature of the State, to settle all
differences with the United States. have
done no such thing. spoke of them not as
a Legislature, but as the gentlemen who
have acted as the Legislature of Virginia in
support of the rebellion" | did this on
purpose to exclude the assumption that
was recognizing them as a rightful body. l
dealt with them as men having power dc tdc-
TO to'do n specific thing, to-wit: "To withdraw
the Virginia troops and other support from
resistance to the General Government" for
which, in the paper handed by Judge CAMP
BELL. | promised a specific equivalent, to-
wit /: 4 remission to the people of the
State, except in certain cases, the contisca-
ton of their property. / meant this, and
no more Inasmuch, however, as Judge
CAMPBELL misconstrues this, and is still
pressing for an armistice contrary to the ex-
plicit statement of the paper gave him, and
particularly as Gen. GRANT has since cap
tured the Virginia troops, so that giving a
consideration for their Withdrawal is no
longer applicable, let my letter TO you and
the paper to Judge CAMPBELL both be with
drawn or countermanded, and he be notified
ofiit. Do not allow them TO assemble; but if
any have come, allow them safe return to
their homes. A. LINCOLN.

THE PUBLIC LANDS.

The present Congress, which sets at de-
fance the Constitution whenever it pleases,
and whenever it chooses to condescend to
recognize it, places upon it whatever con-
struction it sees fit, is wasting the public
lands upon every species of enterprise that
presents itself commanding sufficient in
fuence or capital, (which is the same thlngl
to command It's votes. Scarcely week
passes but we read of a grant Of land to this
or that company, under one pretext or an
other-a wagon road, railroad, or some
other scheme. all cloaked under asserted
public or military necessity. The result OF
this system is that the Homestead Bill, TO
which ANDREW JOHNSON, while in Con-
gress, directed the greater part of his ener-
gies, and one of the chief objects of which
was to protect the public lands against these
monopolists and cormorants in the name of
companies, is made dead letter. The set
tier who would pay the price of surveying,
and a set sum per acre, is practically ex-
cluded. When he goes to what he supposes
the unappropriated public domain, he finds
that the Montana Mining company, or
the Neosho Railroad company, or the Win
nipiseogee and Michilmackinac Transpor
tation company, or Lake Superior Copper
company, or the Lake Itasca and Mouth
of Platte River General Speculation
company have had granted to them by acts
of Congress nearly all the arabic lands in
the Northwest So frequent are these grants,
that upon further investigation 1t is found
that they overlap each other, and many sec
tons and townships are covered two or three
deep with Congressional grants, while the
settler who starts for a Western home I'M
der the liberal provisions of the homestead
bill, finds himself looking for public lands
in vain. Boston and New York and Chi
cago capitalists, under the name of compa-
MES, who never had or intended to have
any corporate existence beyond the entry of
these lands as a gratuity from Congress, own
the earth in the Northwest as far as the eye
can reach, and have converted them into
private claims. Millions and millions of
acres ofpublic lands are there, but between
the grants to States, already amounting to
more than twenty-five millions Of acres and
the grants to these grasPing companies, the
homestead bill and its intended beneficial
ries will have very little left.
The fact is that Congress has no power to
give away the lands to States or companies,
and if it had, it is wrong to do so. They
should be reserved for actual bona fde set
tiers. This is the principle of the home
stead bill, and it is correct. The policy of
Congress is to put the public domain where
it has put the bonds of the Government, in
the hands Of the few. If mischief does not
come of it, all human experience is at
fault

THE TEST OATH FOR THE BAR OF
MISSISSIPPI.

At the present term of the United States
District Court for North Mississippi at Ok
ford, Judge HILL presiding, the usual ques-
ton came up as towhether the lawyers would
be permitted to practice without taking the
test oath :" and after consideration the
Judge announced that all Attorneys who
had been admitted to practice in the Federal
Court before the war, would be regarded as
competent to practice in it now, without
further qualification; but that all other At
torneys desiring to appear before the Court,
must take the test oath.
This is discrimination not made by any
Federal Judge in the South heretofore.
