IMPORTANT TREASURY ORDER

The Secretary Of the Treasury has
ISSUED a commendable order to the effect
that no person employed by the govern
ment shall receive presents from MGR
chants or importers. If strictly en-
forced, this rule will prove a great relief
to the mercantile community. Mers
chants now pay lreaVy assessments il
they want their business promptly dis
patched at the Customhouse. Obstacles
are thrown in their way which are only
removed by giving presents. The in
como Of many subordinate clerks IS much
greater than that of deputy collectors.
Weighers, guagers and inspectors expect
to receive handsome presents. Ships
ping merchants and importers are almost
completely at their mercy, and dare not
complain. But this is not the worst
feature Of the system of making presents
to government officers. The latter, after
having been literally paid by importers,
and are not over particular about the quail.
ity or quantity Of the goods imported, and
it frequently happens that dishonest inn
pOrters are gamers by the transaction
The whole system is full o! injustice and
dishonesty.
The Secretary of the Treasury will dc
AEood act by compelling Custom House
cTtrks to perform their duties promptly
without the incentive OF fee. The re-
cent crowd Of applicants at the Custom
House shows that plenty of competent
men can be obtained for the yariou:
places, and if they were plainly told that
old abuses must be stopped at once il
would now be comparatively easy to ettec'
a reform.-NeiC York Post.

THE EMPIRE, THAR IsTO

As most Of our readers are aware, Sens
ator Chandler, OF Michigan, just before
the close of the last session, made very
belligerent and noisy speech against Eng
land, on the Alabama question, in the
course of which, among other valorous
declarations, he threatened TO take pose
session of Canada with no other help
than that which would be afforded by
the doughty volunteers Of his own State.
The speech was ill-hmed and in execra-
Bile taste-but it would now seem to have
been delivered for particular purpose
the purpose, namely, of acquiring a sort
of notOriety among the people whom he
was bullying at Washington. To that
end, Chandler seems to have gone 10
England, as soon after making his speech
as possible. Doubtless, be expected TO
create a great sensation there, and to be
pointed cut, as he walked along the
Strand. as 'Ihe American Senator who
threatened TO take Canada" etc, etc
The Senator, however does not appear
TO have relied entirely upon his turgid
rhetoric to duly impress Her Majesty's

CURE OF sCROFULA-A DESPERATE

1 ~, 1860. Mrs. Armstrong, of Indiana,
brought her child. then four years old. to Nash
vile to have 1t examined by the Professors OF
the Nashville Medical College. then in session.
Its disease was scrofula, and it was covered
with sores from the crown of its head to its feet.
1t was completely blind. and had never been
able TO stand alone. The doctors told her there
was no cure for i, and It was useless even to
try to give it relief. Having seen tho child,
and being acquainted with its mother. / advised
her to call in DR.. Westervelt. and let him see
il, which sho did. He told her at once that he
could cure it, and would warrant cure If she
would take his medicine home with her. and
give it to the child according to his directions;
which she agreed to do In three months from
that time she wrote to me, stating that the
child was entirely well. There was not sore
about it, its sight was restored. and it could run
about as smart as any child Of its age. This
cure was performed over nine years ago. know
the child is still living. and has had no return

ANINCIDENT IN COURT.
A Deputy Marshal Summons "a Jury OF
Loyal Men, WhereupOn Judge
TrF~s ReasIs Him n Lecture

A Deputy Marshal Summons "a Jury OF
Loyal Men, WhereuPOn Judge
Trigg Reads Him Lecture.
From the Knoxville Press and Herald. Aug. l9.
An incident of interest to the public
occurred in the United States Court
room, on Wednesday morning. The case
ofAtkins VS.. Williams, suit for damages,
being called, Col. Baxter, counsel for the
defendant, objected to part of the jury
which had been summoned to try the
case pending, stating that he had re-
ceiyed information that the United States
Deputy Marshal had summoned special
Jury, some of whom were parties inter-
ested in the case.
The Hon. T. A. R. Nelson, counsel for
the plaintiff, remarked to the court that
it was a very remarkable charge to be
made against one of the officers Of the
court, and considered it to be great in
Justice to the gentlemen summoned,
without introducing sworn testimony to
substantiate the charges which were
made.
Judge Trigg remarked that it had
been his object, and he had always in-
structed the Marshals, to secure the
hest men that can be obtained for juTyh
men, and if any evidence was produced
to substantiate the charges made by Col.
Baxter. he would not permit any of the
Jury that had been summoned to try the
case.
Col. Baxter asked for Mich Childress
to be sworn, he being one of the regular
empaneled iurymen. Col. Baxter asked
Childress if he had not had a conversation
with Atkins, the plaintiff, in which ht
had told him that now was the time t.
hiring his case up for trial, as they haC
now got the right sort of jury. Chll'
dress said he had made a remark to At
kins, to the effect that a good jury haC
been summoned, and he thought it woult
& be a good opportunity to have the cas-
tried.
The Deputy Mar:hal, McCreary, wa
also sworn, and stated in reply to ques
TONS which were asked by Col. Baxter
that he endeavored to summon lOya
men. and considered that Radicals wer
GOOD Union men. Judge Trigg told tt
: deputy that he hoped this would be tn
last time that an occasion OF this KIN
would take place.
; The special jury was dismissed an
1 vacancies were filled from members
- the grand jury. Among those that wei
objected to were Charley Morrow OF
Mitch Childress, both loyal.
Considerable rumor has prevailed sln'
this fraud has been attempted throus
the Marshal, that in all cases in the i
: ture which are similar to the one
= trial, an attempt will be made to pa
It the Jury through the Marshal, and by
8 doing such men as Childress and Charl
D Morrow will be enabled to fill the sea
of honest men. We are confident tn
Judge Trigg will always have an eye
: ;ustice. and will check frauds that a
'e introduced in his court

nerson who made himself notorious
