planters to an amount corresponding with the
taxes they have respectively paid on their
crops might be urged with certain degree of
fairness. But loan to the South generally,
regulated by the taxation paid by q single class
Of its citizens. would be too capricious to be
just. The third plan has no claim to favorable
attention. how much gold the Treasury shall
accumulate, and what shall be done with it's
surplus, if any, are questions with which Con-
gross is expected to deal on their merits. Aid
for the South has no connection with the policy
to be adopted for the adjustment Of financial
between the Secretary and Congress-.
Altogether. these Charleston schemes ore
not calculated to impress the country favora-
bly, as to the reasonableness or practicabihty OF
the Southern ideas on the subject OF assistance.
Prominent officials may have spoken approx
ingly Of one or another Of them, but we an
ticipate little encouragement for any on the
floor Of Congress. We have not very lofty
opinion of the wisdom Of that body, but it is
hardly unwise enough to sanction the scheme
of q loan projected with 80 slight an appear
ance of security or 80 likely to open the door
to waste and fraud. This view, however, does
not imply indifference to the necessities Of
the South, or the duty of Congress to render
immediate relief in manner combining econo-
my aud justice with efficiency and humanity.

acknowledged influence of the tax in repress-

The imposition Of the tax is now admitted to
have been blunder, and there would be no
impropriety in coupling with its repeal re-
turn to the planters of the amount which
helped to swell their last years losses.

MILITARY LAWS IN THE SECOND DISTRICT
Gen. Candy has not been timid in exercising
the authority given him by those so-styled re-
construction acts, which have converted the
whole South into o military satrapy; and, dan
gerous as it is and must be to vest in one man
the power of determining The manner in which
the lives and properties Of the people of a State
of the Union are to be cared for or protected,
it must be admitted that, in some of his &C.
tions, Gen. Candy has shown liberal and
comprehensive spirit, which is worthy Of imi-
tation in those districts where power is used
only for the purpose OF tyranny and oppres-
sion.
It has for years been subject of complaint
that Charleston, the metropolis OF South Caro-
lima, has had to bear far more than her just
proportion OF the taxation OF the State. This
arose from the fact that in the city real estate
was taxed at about its value, while in the coun-
try the bare land WAS taxed at nominal rate,
while the improvements upon it, however val
liable, were in no way included. In The State
Legislature the country representation was so
powerful that this unjust condition of things
could not be changed. But the pen Of the mill
tary commander has been more potent than the
voice of the representatives of Charleston, and
in the tax bill arranged by Gen. Candy for the
coming year every acre and foot ofland, with the
improvements upon it, will be taxed according
to it's marketable value. This section Of the
military tax order has given general satisfac-
ton in the State, and that satisfaction has
been increased by the fact that the rates Of
taxation generally have been lowered in such a
manner as to encourage trade and foster the
growth of commercial business. General Can.
by has also done we'll in decreasing the tax
upon the gross receipts OF newspapers in the
State; and there is every indication that it is
his determination not to attempt to crush by
taxation those organs of public opinion which
are working for the maintenance Of peace in
the South, and which, at the best, return to
their conductors but meagre return for the
quire.-Ne,o York Sunday Neacs.

A HORRIBLE CANN1BAL SronY.-A horrible
tragedy is reported from the Island of Fiji,
South Seas. Tho Rev. Thomas Baker, with an
assistant missionary and six native teachers,
went to visit some inland tribes, and he and
his party were brutally murdered by one of the
tribes, who are described as the most confirmed
cannibals. The writer says: ''In this town
(Longtown) there lives notorious cannibal,
with whom 1 had little conversation. He
pointed me to a pile Of human bones in the
fork of an orange tree under which we were
sitting, and assured ME that he had eaten the
men OF which each bone there was represen-
tstive and that he had kept these bones as q
memento of his cannibalism. Many other
things did this inhuman wretch make known
to me, and his countenance, and more than Or
dinary worn teeth, only helped to convince me
that he had literally been bone-crusher. To
have listened to this mans statements, and
told, too, in the presence of those who could
have contradicted them if false, would have
removed forever from the minds OF some the
idea that Fijians are not lovers of human flesh.
This vile cannibal confirmed that, as for eating,
nothing WAS comparable to buman flesh, not
even Jowls or pork"
