Material Reconstruction ri the South.
The mild Cincinnati Commercial, which
will certainly not be charged with any exT
IRENE views, utters the following warning TO
the South: 6 ~, --.....q "
Before Northern men will, to any consid-
cradle extent, settle In the South, and before
any appreciable amount of the vast emigra,
ton pouring into New York at the rate OF
400 per day and spreading out all over the
West, can be directed to the Southern
States, there must be satisfactory assurance
given that the holding of political opinions,
however opposed to those of the people OF
the States, shall work no injury, in person or
property, to the person declaring them.
Men must be LETT free to think, to speak and
to vote as they please, without receiving
mysterious warning to leave the country
within two days under pain and penalties.
The old restrictive spirit of slavery, which
produced unity OF political action by VIC
lently driving out all who held against the
sentiments of the majority, must be cxtin-
guished before the South, with all its at
fractions of a charming climate, fruitful
soil and inexhaustible resources, will be Sc
lected by those with "the world before
them where to choose" as desirable place
to locate and fix ones permanent abode.
The difficulty in the way of material recon-
struction and progress at the South hes in
the intolerant spirit of the majority of its
white population, and is not the result OF
one policy of reconstruction or another.

never lived in Tennessee could form no

We see it stated that the proposition to
reduce the tobacco tax from forty cents
down to twenty-five for cut tobacco has re-
ceived the approval of and will probably
be reported by the sub committee of ways
and means to which that subject was refer
red: In fixing the rate Of tax, regard should
be had to the convenience of stamping the
packages, and therefore an even number of
cents Invisible by eight would be preferable
to an odd number. The greater part of the
tobacco affected by this rate is put up in
small packages, from one ounce up to twelve
or sixteen. If the tax were fixed ut twenty
four cents, the one-ounce packages could be
stamped with one and a-half cent stamp
each; or if at thirty-two cents, with a two
cent stamp each; but any odd number, such
as twenty five, will be difficult of division,
and will entail a good deal of fractional ar
