The Atlanta Intelligcncer says the
late reconstruction Act will convict all
of perjury who take the oaths embraced,
who held Offices of any kind before the
war, "crcated by law for the administra-
ton of n general law of the State, or of
fccrs for the administration of justice"
The oaths, in other words, exclude
every one of the classes embraced, from
Governor down to a Bailif'; from the
Superintendent of the State Railroad to
a. Road Commissioner.

y \ Washington special says there is no
doubt that the Ways and Means Committee have
substantially agreed upon the income tax. In
the tax bill the tax will be reduced to three per
cent. and the exemption to $4,000. The five per
cent tax is to run till 1871. In the House there
will be a severe contest on this point, as there is
firm deter minaton on the part of very large
number, perhaps a majority, that the reduction
shall commence Immediately.

Ma STEWARDS FUNERAL.-The daily press Of
the State, which were represented at the funeral
ofDugald Stewart, give Heightened accounts and
We quote their concluding paragraphs. The fol-
lowing is from the ST. Adams Messenger
The day was unusually beautiful the business
Of the town was wholly suspended during the
funeral, and no sound was heard save the mourn
lul tolling of the church bell and the rumbling
of the passing trains. As the Hon. John W.
Stewart, brother of the deceased, accompanied
the widow and three iatherless children down the
church aisle, bowed down with grief, there was
not dry eye or an untouched heart in the vast
assembly.
That a gentleman 50 universally beloved and
universally respected by high and low, rich and
poor, should have been cut down by death in the
lower of his manhood and in the zenith of his
usefulness, is one Of those mysterious dispense
tons that can only be thought of in wonder and
tears And so great and large hearted man, a
useful public servant, devoted father and faith
lul friend, has joined the majority and is forever
buried from our sight.
The Erco Press says The final scene at the
grave was extremely affecting, the grief of the
relatives for the loss OF one dear 10 them break
ing out uncontrollaby. For all, both friends and
relatives the sadness of the day was deepened BY
the fact that an old and valued servant and friend
of the family, the nurse in infancy of both the
brothers Stewart, lay at the time corpse in the
house Of Hon John W Stewart, having passed
away since the death Of her foster-child
