IT is stated in the Evening Post that
Secretary BOrie finds office duties i'll
suited to his temperament, and having
rendered the President all the support
in his power, he will now retire."
Before Mr.. Borie took his office he
knew, as well as he knows now, that
be could not Ierform its functions. He
knew, too, that the only reason for
asking him to take such an office
was that he had contributed largely
toward giving General Grant house
1t was his duty as a gentleman
to refuse the office for both these
reasons. But his ambition or his
vanity led him to accept; and hav-
ing held it long enough to make both
the reason for his appointment and his
own incompetence perfectly manifest, it
is now quite time that he should quit.
He has performed his part in one of the
gravest political impositions ever prac.
ticed upon the American people. 1t has
been disgraceful 10 him, and deeply in
furious to the President, and affords a

may be attempted upon the Govern.

THE CHINESE.

There is quite a furious newspaper
warfare going on among the native Amer
leans of California, upon the subject Of
Chinese immigration. One party strong
ly favoring; the other as strongly oppos-
ing We are too far off to judge cor
rectly of the merits of the question. But
we find in the recent animal report Of the
Coroner Of San Francisco the subjoined
extract, which, if true, relieves us of any
distress because of the absence of John
Chinaman from our midst Speaking Of
the Chinese, the Coroner says:
81 beg leave to call your attention TO
these people: the filth of most of their
hab;tations cannot be described. have
secI a family of woman and six children
living in q room not larger than six by
ten feet, with a child dead from small
poX wrapped In rags and placed under a
bench to get it out of the way.
respectfully invite your attention to
the condition of these people. 1t is well
worthy of your serious consideration, not
only from the filthy condition in which
they live, the neglect they undergo from
their own people when they are sick and
no longer able to work, but because they
are accommodating in our almshouses and
lunatic aSylums While they are able to
work, they are looked after by the com
panies which have imported them; but
when they become sick, imbecile or dan
gerously insane, they are left to them
selves to lie on a piece of mating and
die, or are discarded by their own coun-
trymen, taken up by the authorities and
sent to the almshouse or lunatic asylum.
The companies who bring these people
here should be compelled to take care of
them when they are unable TO take care
Of themselves. -

MANY of our citizens viii remember the
excitement caused by the report that
Grant had issued an order just before the
battle. of Nashville relieving Gen. Thomas
and appointing John A. Logan, OF
Illinois, to take command of the Army
of the Cumberland. 1t was also reported
that Logan had got as far as Louisville,
when Grant learning of Thomas success,
countermanded his previous order These
runors created intense excitement and in
dignation among the soldiers under The
victorious Thomas. A correspondent of
the Chicago Tribune has now written a
description of an interview between Gems
Halleck and Thomas, which be says took
place in San Francisco just be-
fore The former relinquished his
command Of that department.
Halleck, he says, explained to Thomas,
on that occasion, the history Of the affair,
Grant, impatient of Thomas delay in at
lacking Hood, issued the order, but Hal
leck put it in his pocket for three days,
thus giving Thomas an opportunity to
fight Hood and beat him, and then the or
der was rescinded. John NJ. Schofeld,
not John A. Logan, was the officer named
to succeed Thomas, and the well-known
friendship of Grant for Schofield is quoted
in confirmation of the story.

THE BANK OF TENNESSEE AND
- TAXES

THE BANK OF TENNESSEE AND
Mr.. y. N. Kennedy, candidate in
Montgomery county for delegate TO the
Constitutional Convention, publishes a
card in the GAINESVILLE Chronicle, in
which he says:
"The Supreme Court of the United
States has decided that the State of Ten
nessee is bound to receive the notes of the
Bank OF Tennessee for taxes; hence the
necessity of making some provision for
their redemption. As these notes have
generally passed out of the hands of the
people, the original holders, and at very
low rates, and are now held by specula-
tors-mostly persons living outs of the
State-who pay no taxes here, | am in
favor of their redemption at the lowest
possible cost to the people.
would, therefore, in levying the State
tax, provide that it may be discharged by
the payment in United States or National
Bank currency, of One-half the amount
levied thus make it the interest of the
taxpayers to pay in this currency, and
leave the Bank of Tennessee notes in the
hands of the present holders to be taken
up by the bank, from its debtors, in pay
ment of debts due and in train of collec-
ton, and for real estate now owned and
held by the bank, which will absorb the
larger part of the circulation. The
amount not redeemed in one of the ways
suggested, should be provided for by an
issue of the bonds of the State at par.
Under no circumstances would favor the
sale of the bonds to redeem the notes of
the Bank of Tennessee, or the receiving
of said notes for taxes on the same basis
as United States currency"

There are many ailments, trying in their Ia
ure, but the symptoms Of which are not sufl-
cienuy specific to enable physicians to classify
them under any particular head. As general
rule they arise from general debility Of the whole
organization but their primary cause, in at least
three cases out Of five, is lack Of brisk vital
ton in tLe stomach and liver. Stimulate
and tone the relaxed digestive and secre-
tive organs, and bodily ease, health and
vigor will follow the treatment. Among
all the medicines which have been recommended
as conducive to this end, none has been admins
tered with such uniform and entire success as
HOsTETTER's STOMACH BITTERS.
It's ingredients were selected from the vegetable
Kingdom, originally, with view to the invigora-
ton Of the physique and the constitution, and
also for their anti-bilious and slightly laxative
properties. Twenty odd years of experience have
proved that these herbal restoratives were wisely
chosen and have been judiciously apportioned in
this celebrated preparation. Not only as a specific
for indigestion and all kindred complaints, but az
household remedy for al the minor ailments incl
dent 10 humanity it has obtained reputation
based on unimpeachable testimony, which fairly
eclipses that of any other proprietary or unofic-
inAl medicine in use. decl4eodlw&Tlt

THE movement in the Senate yesterday,
under the bill of Senator Cooper, of Bed
ford. gives promise that the Peniteutiary
question may reach an early solution.
Our reporter furnishes a summary Of its
main features. When this important bill
shall Gas it will be by ORDER printed, we
may take occasion to review it. For the
present. we can only say that its general
provisions appear to be judicious.
The seventh section seems to deal with
the rights Of the former Iessecs some
what abruptly, rs the matters involved
are now the subject of litigation, or, at
least. in a condition to become so. Ten
DAYS notice to remove machinery which
it required months to erect, with power TO
condemn and enter on possession in case
of failure or refusal, is applying the legis-
lative sword to the Gordian knot. How
ever. it is not to be presumed that the bill
is intended to push matters to settle
mcnt by measures of oppression.
We hope 10 see the affairs Of this in
stitution for the past few years adjusted
and settled fairly to all parties, and in a
manner fully to secure the interests of the
State; and to see it also placed upon a
basis for the future which shall make it
sustaining, and, in the language Of
tbe hill. cause it to cease to be "a drain
on the State Treasury.

IT seems that the internal revenue Off
GERS all over the country have been lining
their pockets. Supervisor butcher of
New York, writes to Commissioner Delano
that a practice prevails to a condiderable
extent in his district by the revenue Off
GERS of charging fortheirs ervicesinmaking
out papers that the law requires the tax
payers to furnish, and asks if such off
GERS have a right to do it. Mr.. Delano
replies that the practice cannot be sane
toned by the revenue Office and must not
be permitted to prevail, and that all inter
nal revenue officers who have taken money
for such purposes and who refuse to
refund the same at once, will be dis
missed from the service.

THE appointment by the President of
Geo. H. Yeaman, of Kentucky, as
United States Circuit Judge for this cir
cult, has created quite a flutter in Radical
circles. The Cincinnati Commercial
of the 18th inst. says:
"a good deal of surprise has been cx-
pressed regarding the appointment Of Mr..
George II. Yeaman to the United States
Judgeship of this Circuit, and some per-
sons have presumed that Mr.. Jesse R
Grant, the Presidents father must have
had something to do with it. A reporter
visited the old gentleman last evening, TO
ascertain whether he had special informa-
ton upon the merits of Mr. Yeaman, and
was informed that Mr.. Grant, ST., and
Mr.. Yeaman were not personally &C
quainted and the Presidents father seems
to have shared to some extent in the
general surprise at the appointment, and
expresses himself on the subject with
great propriety."
1t is refreshing 10 find Grant disap-
pointing the Radicals occasionally.
