LAND COMMISSIONERS.

The Advisory Board, created under the Act of
the Legislature, consisting of the Governor, Comp
troer-Genera, State Treasurer, Secretary of State
and Attorney General met in Columbia last week
and appointed CHARLES P. LESLIE, Senator from
Bsrnwell, Land Commissioner of the State of South
Carolina. This appointment is doubtless made to
sootn the .irrepressibles" feelings in consequence
of his losing the United States Marshalship for
this State, of which he was so certain and it
might likewise be accounted for the ground that
it was necessary to keep down another disgraceful
s.indignation'' meeting. Whatever may have been
the motives actuating the Advisory Board in thrus
ting this ft little Office upon the impecunious Sen
ator Nom Barnwell, We are confident that LESLIE
will be quite as acceptable to the land owners
(from whom he is expected to purchase) as any
other of the tribe of carpet-baggers. Tie Act un-
der which the appointment is made appropriates
$4,000, ,OO) in bonds Of the State to the purchase
of lands to be sold on credit of FIVE years to
actual settlers in sections Of not less than twenty
five nor more than one hundred acres, the pur.
chaser to pay interest at the rate of six per cent
per annum, and every year after the time from the
purchase to pay one-ffth Of the principal.

COTTON NOT TAXED.

Two or three weeks ago, we made reference to Q
statement in an Augusta contemporary that cotton
grown the present year was liable to taxation ana
expressed our belief thatths impression was erro-
neous. The statement Of our cotemporary' IN
some form or ether, has been circulated all over
the South. In order that all doubts ON the sub
iect might be removed, letter was addressed oy
thercommercial editor of Ehe Memphis Avalanche
to the Secretary of the Treasury, asking for lnfor-
nation. This letter was referred to Commissioner
RoLr1Ns, Of the Internal Revenue department, who
replied in substance that the Act of February .,
1865 sbolishing the tax on cotton, is so clear us
to admit of no doubt as to its meaning and effect,
and the language of this Act is quoted as follows
THAT all cotton grown in the United States after
the year 1867 shall be exempt from internal tax.
This operates to exempt not only the crop Of 1865
but the crops of all succeeding years, until the
Act shall be repealed or modified by subsequent
legislation, as suggested by us in the paragraph
already alluded to.

ANDREW JOHNSON.

The warm reception given by the people of Ten
nessee to their old favorite indicates the strong
hold he yet possesses upon their hearts. Besides
the speeches made by him at Greenville and Knox
vile, he has travelled across the State and deliver
ed telling blows in favor Of the Constitution and
against the tyranny of the Radical party, both at
Nashville and Memphis, Immense crowds focked
to hear him, and in every quarter there is the
greatest enthusiasm over ANDYs return. The
thraldom of oppression and misrule, under which
the people of Tennessee have existed for several
years, will pass away as summers cloud before
the spirited onslaughts of this tribune of the mas
ses. His speeches are always characteristic, at
times eloquent, and anon more forcble than ele-
CANT. In one ofhis speeches, after telling his hear
ers that he preferred to be In their midst advocating
the principles of the Constitution rather than to
be inaugurated President, he concluded with this
sublime peroration "I would rather wear the hon.
est dust of peaceful toll than the gilaed shoulder,
straps or the sword crimsoned in brother shlood
dangling at my side. Yes, I prefer the peaceful
badges Of citizen to the insignia Of bloody and
RELENTLESS war. had rather be in your midst to
urfurl the banner Of peace and fasten it below the
cross, with the inscription, Cop FIRST AND MY
COUNTRY NEXT. My confidence is uHahered, that
the people will be true to- themselves, reason will
be restored, and we shall again have our old form
Of government"

nsa The last number of the Walhalla Courier
contains lengthy card to the public from DIR. Q.
NJ DOYLE, one of the efficient and popular Repre-
sentatives of Oconee county in the present Legis-
lature replying to certain charges preferredby the
Grand Jury of that county against the Special
Commissioners Of Location for neglect Of duty.
In concluding the explaustion made as to his own
conduct as o member of the Board, DR.. DOYLE
hopes that .'those papers in the State which have
published or commended the presentment" of the
Grand Jury s'will do the justice" to publish his
card. We commend the style Of the presentment
alluded to, but explicitly stated that We did not
pretend to Judge of the merits of the questions in
volved. AS we did not publish the presentment
nor make any improper use of our privileges as
journalist, we respectfully decline acceiing to the
request of Dr.. DOYLE, especially as neither him.
self or any other member of the Board, or even
the Board itself, were mentioned in our editorial
"commending" the Grand Jury of Oconee. We
are always willing to do 'justice" wherever aparty
feels aggrieved or wronged by editorial illusions,
but we respectfully submit to our friend that in
this instance there is no injustice on our part,
whatever may be the case with others. So far as
We know, this paper is the only one in the State
(outside of Oconee county, to yAich the request is
applicable, and hence we have felt it incumbent
upon US TO make this statement.

Appo1yrNENTs BY THE GOVERNOR.

The Columbia Phen,z of Tuesday publishes
list of appointments made by Gov. ScorT of per-
sons selected to take the census of each county in
the State, and in connection Herewith makes use
of the following language: "The appointments
will be generally approved, and we hope that IN
the discharge Of their duties these officials Will
meet with every facility which can be afforded oy
the citizens of our State" Now, when it is de-
clared that onethird of the persons named are ne
groes, and the majority Of them totally unquahneo
for the position, the statement of the Fne"'1 VIII
be received with surprise and indignation. ruo-
lshed at the capital of the State and with faciI-
ties TO obtain information not excelled by another
;ournal within its borders the Phenir mai es the
prandest mistake in presuming that such appoint
ments will be "generally approved" SO far
from this being the case incline to the opinion
that they will be generally condemned Hereto
fore, newspapers at the capital have been looked
upon as the e1ponens of public sentiment through
out the State, but it ought to be distinctly under
stood that, in this instance, there is lamentabe
failure to appreciate public sentiment much less
to give te1e and direction to public opinion. Such
appointments will not be "generally approved
now or hereafter, for the principle is wrong to
confer office upon incompetent and unworthy per-
sons, of whatever race or color.
We are not astonished by the course Gov. scoT7
has pursued in making these appointments. He
is cheek by jow With the negroes, and if re-elec-
ted will owe his second elevation to their support.
His appointment for this county is against the
wishes of his own party, so far as we can learn,
and we understand that petition was circulating
among the respectable colored people on yester-
day, asking Gov. SCorr to reconsider the matter.
There were other applications before him, we have
been assured and among them the name Of I. ].
WEBB, who is entirely competent to fill the place,
and possesses every qualification to meet the re,
qurements of the Republican party, including
loyalty itself. Besides, he was recommended by
numerous citizens of both parties. Why were lis
claims ignored, and the Office filled by colored
man not at all qualified? But, them, the Ihdnia
says such appointments will be "generally ap-
proved" Et tu Brute?

HENRY S. FooTE.

1t has been long while since this noted lndi-
vidual has appeared before the public gaze, yet we
are we'll aware that he never "hides his light un-
der bushel" The last great exploit of his gen.
ius, which is remembered by the Southern people,
was when he attempted to ferry across the Kappa
hammock into the enemy's lines, near the close of
the war. He Is yet alive and kicking. What a
steady example Of the Ishmelite has he furnished,
with his hand against every man !? Intense fanati-
cism always marked his career, and there can be
no surprise at any political ergiversation he may
be guilty Of since his nature requires as food the
EXTREMIST hatred and bitterest prejudices. Moder-
ate and rational counsel doth not become him, and
is with curses and maledctions upon some devo-
ted head But an introduction to HESaY S. FooTE
is entirely unnecessary, since the world knows
him ard the people of the South are perfectly fa.
miliar with his artecedents. We started to say
that the nveterate. and irrepressible FoorE has
turned up in Nashville, Tenn, recently, and this
time fancies that ex-President johnson has done
him m injury, for which he is pouring out the
walls of his wrath. 1t seems that Mr.. JoHNsoN,
in q speech delivered in Nashville thu other day.
made some allusion which HENRY S. FoorE tor
lures into charge against himself He assumes
that Mr.. JOHNSON charged him with ingratitude.
He denies the charge, and AYERS that he owes
nothing to the forbearance and generosity of JOHN
SON, who, he alleges, treated him unkindly and
cruelty He denounces JOHNSON rs seditionis,
. whom the people of Tennessee are indebted for
their disfranchisement. He charges him with
usurpation and tyranny, and admonishes the peo-
pie of the Southern States not to be controlled BY
him, but to accept the legislation of Congress and
the confidence Of Gen. GRANT, who, he assures them,
is their friend and desires to restore them to pros
perity and good government.
Poor, unhappy old man After boxing every
point of the political compass for the last thirty,
years, in his old age and decrepitude, and with o
full knowledge of the numerous political sins al
ready recorded against him, HENRY S. FooTE ad-
vises acceptance of the monstrous legislation of
Congress and the confidence ~ Of Cen. GRANT.

Our Charleston Correspondence.
CHARLESTON, April 10, 1876

CHARLESTON, April 19, 1868.
Dame Nature never introduced Spring time to
her Charleston family in better humor than she
has done this Ammo Domini 1869. All is sunshine
and warmth, and the bursting of buds and the
carolliug of birds make the heart glad. If there
be one thing lacking, it is water Our citizens
are dry, streets dusty, and oar throats driest
and dustiest of all. Two hours walk on the Bay
makes man feel as if he had small sand bar in
his stomach, and affords reasonable excuses for
patronzing those 'mixologists of ftippulars" which
are to be found on every corner.
One cannot complain, however, in the teeth of
so much good fortune Us has been vouchsafed to
this community during the last six or eight months
On all sides mems faces tell of an increase Of
worldly store. Since the last Fall, stocks, bonds,
city property and real estate in the vicinity, all
responsive es the needle 10 the magnet, have been
affected by the silent undercurrent of prosperity
Northern capital has sought the Southern field Of
investment, and men of means continue to arrive
here by every steamer in seach of the mystical
lamp of Alladin, or some new process wherewith
to swell their riches Money has been plentiful !;
country merchants have paid cash for their pur-
chases; cotton has kept ships moving and factors
busy, and every department of trade has received
a fresh and healthy impetus. Just nov there is q
lull Money is comparatively tight, and yet
enough is doing to keep the blood from stagnation
and the commercial coffee-pot boiling,
But what contrast there is between April,
1861 and 1869. How terrible have been the
changes Of eight years Equally striking is the
difference between 1866 end 1869. Then, more
than half the city was like desert over which
presided the genius of destruction. The shrek Of
the shell or the clang of the 6rebell were the on
ly sounds that broke the silence in the region
known as "doWn town." Stores and dwellings
were covered with the ragged embroideries of
Gen. Glmore's guns, and their owners were
refugees from home. The streets were denuded

AN OLD OFFENDER.

The Asheville IN. C.) Neus, in copying para
graph from this paper relative to the arrest OF one
JOHN SULLIVAN for stealing horse in this vicinity
makes the following statement regarding him.
which proves that he is an old offender against the
law s.This man Sullivan is known IN our country'
where he was born and raised. Suspicion attaches
to him as having stolen several horses in this Sec
tion, before leaving it, and having been now caught
in the act, ID is fair to presume that aperod has
been put to his exploits, for awhile at least"
