gwVHE UNDERSlGNED. WHO WE'RE
III appointed Commissioners by the Ken
duct the Henderson County Land sale
OF VIM. McLain, Esq, take this method OF
announcing to the public that the drawing
of prizes in the enterprise has been post
poned until the Ist day OF September, 1863
When, on the LIST of october last, the enter
prise was laid before the pubic, 10 was
confidently expected that it could be con-
cluded by the l4th OF January. 1863. the
day fixed for the drawing; but several
causes, none of which were anticipated,
aud which could not be controlled by the
Commissioners nor by the owner CT the
property. combined to prevent IL. Among
these we may mention the failure to OBJ
tain printed matter at the time contracted
for, the extreme strigency OF the money
market, and the distIust in the minds OF
the people of enterprises like this, induced
by causes which are yet fresh in the recoI-
lection OF the public.
Though tickets are now being rapidly
sold, sufficient number have not been
disposed OF to justify a transfer OF the
property without bringing loss upon the
owner.
terprise, nearly eight hunured acres of
which are cleared and tillable, will be
rented ont for the present year-lS69. Good
bonds for the rent will be taken, and these
bonGs will be assigned to the persons who
draw the said FARMS
The money 1or the tickets sold is ia the
hands OF the agents, and should any share
holder be dissatisfied with the postpone
PRESENTATION OF his ticket.
The undersigned think it will not be
amiss to say, in this connection, that hey
have no pecuniary interest IN the above
enterprise, nor Will they have In the Iu-
Iure. They will not receive one cent Tor
their services. and they do not now, and
will not at any time, own, hold. or control
a single ticket in the enterprise; nor one
dollar recefved from the sale of tickets Will
be used by them, nor can the owner Of the
property touch, use, or control any part OF
ft until after the drawing takes place; and
should the enterprise, by any unforeseen
contingency, prove a failure, all money
received from the sale of tickets Will be
promptly returned on presentation of the
tickets to the agent from whom bought.

THE High Tariff men don't like the
Report of Mr.. WELLS. OF course
not. His facts are damaging to their
theories as well as their profits. Very
properly Pennsylvania, whose wealth
the whole country is severely taxed
to increase. will lead off in Congress
in an assault on his Report. The
MooREHEAD tariff men are rallying
in force, and will do their very best
to refute the principles advocated by
Mr.. WELLS. We can only repeat
now what we have often said before
as a warning to the unreasonable
tariff men. The question of Recon
struction is virtually settled, and out
of the way. 1t can no longer be used
as a hobby on which the tariff men
can safely and luxuriously ride.
Therefore, reason ought to suggest to
them the propriety of not tampering
too much with the patience of the
people Of the West. Patience some
times ceases to be virtue, and Sc
certain as ever the High Protective
Tariff measures come before the peo-
pie of the West for their approval,
they will be rejected with every mani
festation of disgust IF the Repuh
licans of the West permit the Repub-
lieans OF the manufacturing States tt
saddle a still higher and more op
pressive tariff-such, for instance, al
the MooREHEAD Bill-upon thei
constituents, they may as well pre-
pare for retiring to private life. Tht
first time the people get chance a
them at the polls they will be, polit
icalIy, buried out of sight.
