The able and statesmanlike letter
of Hon. A. r. Johnston on the condi-
ton of public affairs, and the course
which it is proper for our people to
pursue with q view to their interests
and safety, is published in our col
umns to-day, and will be read with the
deep concern which the unequalled oc-

Theadvertisement Of DR.. NASH, in the Plea
yune, of his INFIRMARY at Magnolia, deserves
at least, a notice of recommendation from ev-
cry one whose life has been prolonged, If the
disease Cancer has not been entirely eradica-
ted, by the treatment of DIR. NASH.
Whilst at his Infrmary, j witnessed the sue
cess with which he treated others for Cancers,
in various forms, and also saw several persons
who had been cured OF Cancer. Goitre, etc.
On recent visit to the mfrmary, saw two
gentlemen from New Orleans, whom the Doc
tor Is treating for cancer in the mouth, with
fair prospect Of success; and | was pleased TO
learn from him. that his practice Is large and
increasing, for he is not only deserving Of the
confidence and patronage Of the afflicted, but
feel assured that those suffering from CANCER
will be RELIEVED, If not entirely cured, by his
treatment.
Being an old resident of this city, and well
known to you, you will please refer any person
to me who may desire further information re-

session of the Legislature amcndatory
of the vagrant laws of this State, re-
pealing the tax OF one dollar. on each
freedman, levied under the act of Nov.
1865, to constitute freedman pauper

of some persons that the State poll
tax of one dollar on each male freed
man has been repealed. We are au-
thorized by Mr.. Swami, Auditor Of
Public Accounts, to state that this lat
ter act is still in force.

Some of our friends are saying,
"suppose we adopt the Constitutional
Amendment, has Congress given any
pledge or assurance, that we will then
be admitted to representation and re-
lieved from the terrors of martial law ?"
We reply that it has. In the 9Th sec
ton of the Sherman Bill it is
declared that "when such article shall
become part of the Constitution of
the United States, said State shall be
declared entitled to representation in
Congress. The 9th section in effect
declares that the Southern States shall
continue under Martial Law, "antip'
admitted to representation, &c.
