A WASHINGTON correspondent OF a
prominent newspaper in New York says
that, in the collection of revenue form
whisky, Commissioner Delano has done
noletter than Rollins did in the last year
of Johnson's administration; and gives
the figures from official sources TO sustain
the statement.
Delano counts, in his receipts for 1869,
SI46SO, $40. 70 collected on some twenty
four millions of gallons of spirits, in
bond, July 90, 1865, which spirits were
the product of the years 1866, 1867 and
1865.
Rollins estimated the entire receipts
from internal revenue for 1869 at $l45,
600, 600. The receipts were $l60, 900,
600; but they included the tax on the
spirits mentioned above, which shows
that Rollins estimate was very nearly cor

WILLIE.
1t viii be remembered that q week ago
the principal merchants of the city of
Nashville, irrespective of party, beginning
to feel the effects of the proposed recon-
struction policy, in the tenderest of all
points, the pocket, telegraphed to the
leading cities East that that policy
would be ruinous to the mercantile inter
est here, and consequently injurious to
the mercantile interest Of the principal
Eastern cities. They further telegraphed
fact which no ignoramus viii deny,
that commerce is ever conservative.
They also stated that the prosperity of that
interest for the past eight months in the
State of Tennessee was conirma-
tory evidence of the peace and quiet
of the State, and of the law-abiding
disposition Of the people. They, there
fore, appealed to the merchants of the
North and East that, for their mutual in
tercst, those merchants should interpose
with the dominant party in Congress to
prevent reconstruction. A leading Radi-
cal paper in the city of Boston, the
Transcript, endeayors to take advantage
of this business transaction, in an effort,
contemplate in spirit, but perhaps dam
gerous in its result, to excite all the preju-
dices which belong to the past, by refer
ring to the action of our merchants in an
article headed: TENNESSEE CRACKING THE
PLANTATION WHIP. We extract as fol-
lows:
OF one thing we are sure: that the i'm
pudence of traders in that State tele-
graphing to Boston merchants, appealing
to their pecuniary interests, and asking
them to use their influence at Washington
to persuade the Federal Government to let
that muddled, chaotic and contentious
Commonwealth alone, is the height of the
ridiculous, and only worthy of contempt.
Rebels, semi-Rebels and selfish Unionists,
seem to have learned nothing from
the events of the past decade
and to be still unable to comprehend
the patriotism of the North. If our
business men did not hesitate to peril
everything in their devotion to national
ity" against a Shareholders rebellion, they
are hardly likely now, for fear of losing a
little trade, to bestir themselves in behalf
of a people who refuse to take and apply
for their own content, the law, order and
peace which are within their reach. The
anxious Tennesseeans who impertinently
address Northern pockets for help, had
better learn the first lessons of self-gov-
ment.
1t has been thus from the end of the
war to the present day. Fanaticism has
madly ruled the hour. Whatever has
been either done or left undone by the
people of the South has been perverted
to advance the paltry personal interests of
political malignants. If we keep quiet,
we are denounced as surly and unrepent-
ant, and therefore deserve to be further
punished. If we speak above whisper
in matters Immediately or remotely politi-
cal, we are denounced for our independ-
encc, and gruffly told to take back seat,
that Rebels have no right to a voice in
the government of this country. But the
tax-gatherer comes regularly. VIII the

DISEASES OF THE KIDNEYS AND BLADDER


Persons unacquainted with the structure and
functions of the Kidneys cannot estimate the i'm
portdnce of their healthy action.
Regular and sufficient action Of the Kidneys is
as important, nay, even more so, than regularity
Of the bowels. The Kidneys remove from the
Blood those effete matters which, permitted to
remain, would speedily destroy life. A total sus-
pension of the urinary discharges will occasion
death from thirty-six to forty hours.
When the Urine is voided in small quantities at
the time, or when there is a disposition to Urinate
more frequently than natural, or when the Urine
is high colored or scalding, with weakness in the
small of the back, it should not be trifled with or
delayed, but Koskoo should be taken at once TO
remedy the difficulty, before lesion Of the organs
takes place. Most Of the diseases of the Bladder
originate from those Of the Kidneys, the Urine
being imperfectly secreted in the Kidneys, prove
irritating to the Bladder and Urinary passages.
When we recollect that medicine never reaches the
Kidneys except through the general circulation Of
the Blood, we see how necessary it is to keep the
Fountain of Life Pure.

ment, the people must lose one million
dollars in raw material, which is grown
for the seed produced, and must inevita-
bly, be wasted if the baggingis imported,
That with the duty on gunny cloth, as
II now stands, an importation of three
millions and a half yards, will produce
as much revenue as six times that
amount at one cent per yard.
That should the present duty be re-
tanned, and the importation of gunny
cloth entirely cease, the internal tax paid
bv manufacturers of flax, hemp and iute
baCging will largely, If not wholly, cover
the loss from failure of import duties.
That if the revenue from duties or i'm.
ports, as claimed, is in excess of the
wants of the government, and reduction
is decided upon, it is better to reduce du-
ties on articles not manufactured or pro-
duced in this country, rather than de-
stroy a new and promising branch Of
home industry by removing the present
protection from the low priced labor u
India.
That the undersigned further repre-
sent, that no tare is allowed on cotton
bales, that the bagging used to cover is
sold at the same price as the cotton in
closed, and affords a profit to the planter.
That the demand for reduction of the
duty on gunny cloth does not emanate
from the consumers of bagging. but from
the importers engaged in the trade with
British India; but they, the manufacture
ing Indians, and the owners of English
bottoms in which it is imported, will
alone be benefited by reduction.
For these reasons your subscribers re-
spectfully ask your honorable body to
pass no laws that will reduce the present
import duty on gunny cloth, but if a
change is made, will increase the protec-
ton now afforded the interest represent
ed by your memOrialists.

ED. CHRONICLE Permit few words
from the Western Reserve Seminary,
located at this place. Your readers are
doubtless informed, from the advertise
ments which have from time to time
appeared in your paper, that at the be-
ginning of the current year, the corps OF
instructors was increased in number and
consequently in efficiency. A number
of changes were also made. And with
Prof. Mills, an experienced educator, at
the head, has been doing excellent work
in the cause of education. The manage
ment of the school has given the most
perfect satisfaction TO students and citi-
zens alike. No pains have been spared
TO render each department a SUCCESS. 4
few features deserve especial notice. The
common branches, so often sighted in
the institutions of similar character. are
taught by experienced teachers. The
grammar department is taught by Miss
II. y. Foster, \. NJ, who is also Prof. of
greek and higher mathematics. The
geography is taught by Mr.. L. W. June
who makes this branch a specially, and
teachers designing to teach the Guyot
system, now so largely introduced in
our county schools, should not fail to
attend and study this branch with him.
The maps produced by the class upon
examination at the close of the Fall
term, drawn according to the Guyot sys-
TEN, after one terms study, was the de-
light of all who examined them.
The photography and spelling are
taught by Mrs. Mills, B. s., Prof. of high
er english and Bellies %lettres, in a word,
the least advanced students receive the
same privileges and attention as those
in the higher branches. A german de-
partment has been started, under the
instruction of Nj. Frank Miller, a native
german teacher. Glasses have been
formed numbering near a score of pupils.
The lectures before the students and
citizens are & very fine feature. We
were favored with a lecture on the even
ing of the 26th, by Prot. j. ii. Rhodes of
Cleveland. Subject, six wesks in Lon
DON" 1t was listened to by a large and
appreciative audience, and pronounced
the best of the season. The whole num-
Der of students enrolled are We under
stand about 90. The Spring term COM
mences Mar. 22d, and the prospects are
fair for q large attendance. Il.
