GENERAL Wilcox A TRUE SoLDIER.-At
the Salt Works reside the widow and
family of our lamented Stuart, that "prince
Of cavaliers" as he has been dubbed by
universal consent. With delicacy OF re-
spect deserving imitation, General Wilcox,
who was one of the party, requested per-
mission to wait on this soldiers widow in
testimony of the admiration and esteem
with which her honored husband was re-
garded, and, in company with mutual
friend, rendered his respects. The visit
was received in the same spirit by which it
was inspired, and terminated after few
minutes spent in pleasant conversation

MORE ABOUT Mr.. BoTTs AND HIS GRAND
JURY.-The Richmond correspondent of
the New York Times says:
Underwood's Grand Jury, with the ex-
ceptiou of Messrs. Bolts and Segar, is COM
posed Of men, white and black, who were
prominent in the Hunnicutt convention ;
and upon the adjournment on Friday Mr..
Bolts asked them to remain, and read to
them his circular, accompanied with re-
marks to the effect that the party must be
re0rganized or annihilated at the approach
ing election, and asked their cooperation
in convention to be held for that purpose
at as early day as possible. He then left
the room, saying he hoped they would give
the matter a favorable consideration and
come to a decision as soon as possible. No
sooner was he gone than the little gang of
Radicals opened upon him the vials of their
wrath he was q rebel, copperhead, he
was opposed to confscation. he was every
thing that WAS bad, and in short they would
have nothing to do with him or his project.
They would have the party as 1t was, and
neither Bolts nor Segar, nor anybody else
except the thorough extreme Radicals of
the Hunnicutt stamp should have anything
To do with it."

conservative candidate for Governor, spoke
at the Courthouse Square this morning.
About ten thousand persons were present.
He was very bitter against Governor
Brownlow, and spoke of the corruption by
which that party sought to retain power.
Mr.. Etheridge was followed by General
w. B. Stokes, who defended Brownlow
and the Radical party, and claimed that
Generals Grant, Sherman, Thomas, and
Sheridan were Radicals. Both speakers
ADMITTED that the rebels who fought were
quietly attending to their domestic affairs,
and cared nothing for politics. Every
thing passed off quietly.

THE NORTH WAKING UP.-If a military
or civil functionary may compel the pro-
prietor of the St. Charles, New Orleans,
to throw open his parlors and chambers to
travelling negroes, under the pretence of
carrying out the civil rights bill, may not
some other functionary, civil or uncivil,
compel the lessees of the Fifth Avenue
and the Clarendon Hotels in this city to
assign their bridal chambers to the first
colored couples that may feel ambitious OF
the distinctions Clearly, the hotels are as
much subject to generals and mayors as
railroads or steamboats,; and the law which
confers jurisdiction over southern hotels in
the interest of the negroes also applies to
hotels at the North. The law recognizes
no discrimination on account of locality,
and our city hotels may therefore be on
the lookout for test case before the sum-
mer ends.-Neto York Times.

Tribune of Saturday says:
Some friends have written to ask if the
editor of the Tribune does not propose to
offer any defence against the attacks and
incivilities to which he has been subjected
for volunteering to stand security that JEFF
ferson Davis will be on hand whenever the
Government shall see fit to put him on trial.
He can only say that thus far he has found
nothing in these scurrilities that seemed
to require an answer. But if he have any
real friend who needs further light on the
subject, he asks that friend to read the
speech which he made last Tuesday eve
ming to large assemblage Of the people of
Virginia, embracing the Governor, most OF
the higher Judges, with many other high
officials, and large proportion of the most
respected citizens. Those who shall read
that speech attentively will have all the
explanation that we care to give or can
imagine requisite; and if there be any
still dissatisfied, they are abundantly well
come to remain so. We have worked hard
many years to little purpose if many per-
sons who partake of the spirit manifested
in the columns of the EUening Post and
of the Commercial still remain among our
habitual readers.

Sir,-In reply to yours of the 9th in

one district previous to May |, 1867, have
been (under the peculiar terms of the late
act) assessed for the business in which they
were engaged for the year ending April 30,
1868, in said district, there is no cause for
abatement or reiunding of the tax assessed
by reason Of the removal Of such persons
during May, or thereafter, to any other dis
trict. But if persons so assessed removed
to another district before doing any bust
ness in the district where assessed, the as
sessment made may be abated, or the tax
paid refunded, unless the parties have re-
gistercd the facts of removal, as by pro-
viso to section IS, in which case, being
liable to no additional tax by reason of re-
moval, abatement, or refunding would be
unnecessary. Very respectfully,
