Hon. TnADDEUs SrsvENs.--Ol tho
condition Of tho Hon. Thaddeus Stevens
q Washington correspondent writes that
it is evident t hat he is in rapid decline,
mentally and physically. His convcr-
sation upon frequent subjects which
lave long occupied his mind is dIscon-
nected and broken with FREQUENT pauses,
manifesting great effort to confno him.
self to consecutive train Of thought. At
intervals q gloam Of enthusiasm passes
over his mind when he brightens up
and uttcrs sentences with vigor and
emphasis, but soon rclapses INTO kind
ofintcllectual s.upor. Physically bo is
greatly emaciated and enfeoblei by his
recent illness. Tf Mr.. Stevens finds
strength sufficient TO enable Him to at
tend the session Of tho coming Congross,
he will DO unable TO take part in its pro.
cecdings. and it is the general imprcagion
That IL will be his last session.

A Memphis paper give the following
advice TO the people OF tho South:
The people Of he South need not re.
main idle. AS the world is governed
by money, lc" them get moncy. When
they do they will DC respected. They
WI: be respected and slubocrcd over by
the wre.cics who now hate them
because they are proud and have no
money.
Hold on to your lands. The monicd
lorIs OF the North want to dispossess
you of them, for then they know that
you will be in their power. So long as
you hold them you are masters Of the
situation. Act upon the fact that the
| Radicals arc attempting to impovcrish
you and drive you out of tho country.
| Whh this ever in your minds, grasp
your lands with death grip, and if
necessary, face starvation itself before
you give way. If they cannot dispos-
scss you by purchases, tlcy will resort
to legislation, and attempt tax you into
acquiesence.
1t has been suggested that The %
cent tax may be avoided by manufac.
turing the cotton in the cotton in the
district where it is grown. That, if
practicable would be only temporary
relief. Your enemies would tax it ut
the gin, in tho boil, in tho blossom, and,
if necessary, III the ground. They in.
tend to tax it out of existence, #
they fail to drive you from your planta'
TORS.
Go into The hog and hominy btsincss.
Raise corn and slaughter pork. Cover
your hills with cattle and punctuate our
pastures with sheep, mules and horscs,
and flavor tie whole with showers OF
goats.
Teach the freedmen that he 10 {,
Southern man. to the cabin born, and
that his destiny is launched OH the same
bllow that now hcavcs beneath tho
white man. &c just to him, and The
day may como when you may lean upon
him as a rock.
Cultivate tho earth to the best advan
tagc, and novor fail 10 have your barn
idll. But DO not neglect to cultivate
letters.

that upwards Of $l00, 100000 OF rcvo
nue. from whiskcy alone has been lost to
the Government during tho last year
by the inelEccnt9and corruption of
the officials in tho collection OF the rsve-
nue., and very large amount has been

The legality or TIE EMANCIrA.
TON AM"SDMEST.-An important qucs.
ton has been referred to tho Attorney
General for decision, by the Secretary
of State, touching the legality Of the
emancipation amendment TO tic Consti-
tuition. ltappcars that q captain of a
British vessel seccn;!y brought into the
port Of Key West, fla. three black sail.
orr, wlcrcupon the local authorities IN
dictcd him under The State laws, which
prohibit the introduction or emigration
Of FREQ negroes. The captain las ap.
pcaIcd to Mr.. Ford. Charge dAilaircs of
Great Britain here who has addressed
a note to Secretary Seward on tho sub.
jcct Pending the action Of the Attor.
ncy General action against the English
captain has been suspended.
Tho Constitution provides that
the m grafton or importation Of such per.
sons as the States think propcrto admit
shall not be prohibited prior to The year
1903. That is, tho slave tradc should
not be prohibited before that date. As
10 WcIl NHO"U, us SOOtl rs LlltC uale arrl-
vcd, Congress, IN strong and elaborate
acts, which have remained ever since in
force, prohibited tho slave trade. The
language of one of the principals Of those
acts is: "Shall import or bring any ne.
s"o, mulatto, or other person Of color,
not beng native, citizen, or register
cd seaman OF the United States or soa-
men, natives Of countries beyond the
Cape Of Good Hope, into any port or
lp.cc Of he United Statos which shall
bc situated in any Stato which by lew
has prohibited the admission orimporta-
,ion Of such negro, mulatto or other per.
SON OF color" IW most OF tho States in
tic South free persons Of color are pro-
hibiled from coming or being brought
into the State. Of course no person is a
slave IN any legal sense uutil after he
has been brought into the Statcani sold
The question now is, whothcraii3. sboli-
'iontof slavery by amendment Vf tho
Constitution, and the passage, too OF the
famous civil rights bill, do not repca
all laws now in force prohibiting wha,
Is known as tho slave trade, by remov.
