under command or Brevet Major General Carlin.
MAJOR OF the sixteenth infantry. This force WAS
directed by General Terry 10 cooperate with the
State authorities and TO act protection to- tho
United states Marshal in arresting the offenders
upon writs issued by Circuit Court Com

Scott at Columbia, and In company
with the Marshal proceeded thence by rail
and wagon road to Lawrence Court House, and
owing to the fact that the town not connected
with Columbia by telegraph succeeded In surprs-

parties arrested were citizens Of prominence and
wealth. but the federal grand jury Lar political
reasons ignored the bills against them. They were
however rearrested upon writs issued by the State
authorities and held In custody until Judge Vernon

HOW 1T WORKS.

We have often called attention to the
inequality and injustice of our Radical
tax laws The Cincinnati Enquirer in
illustrating the same subject gives us the
accompanying facts and figures pertinent
to Ohio. The argument applies with
equal force to Tennessee. The figures,
only, will vary from those given for
Ohio.
There are 81, 600, 900, 900 of real and
personal property listed upon the tax
duplicate of the State of Ohio. That
81, 900, 600, 900 pays all the taxes for the
State and local governments, which
amount to $40, 900, 600, 900 annually. In
addition, it pays its income and all its
Federal taxes. There are 81, 200, 600, :
900 invested in United States bonds.
What does that payl According to the
Ohio rate, it should be $45, 900, 900 a
year. But it pays nothing. When
motion was made the other day, in the
House of Representatives, to tax
them 100000 a year, it was
voted down. If it had carried
it would only have been one-sixth as
much as is paid by other species of prop
erty. But even this was not sanctioned
by what are humorously termed the
peoples representatives, who are, in fact,
nothing but the representatives of the
bondholding and national banking inter-
ests. The question is, are the people in
favor of this discrimination 1t is not
pretended that there are any legal OBJ
stacles in the way. Congress has the
right to tax the bonds, if it will only eX-
e-cise it. Why should it not do it Why
should not farmer who has bonds be
taxed as much as the farmer who has

done in Great Britain and other European
countries, and is in accordance with JUS
ticc and common sense.

Want of Vitality.

Sometimes there Is lack of vitality in large and
apparently well developed frames Herculean
sinews and muscles are not always indicative of
stamina and constitutional vigor in their posses
sor. Health depends moro upon the condition of
the stomach, the liver and the bowels, than upon
the breadth Of the shoulders, or the size OF loose
levers and puleys Of the system In which strength
Is supposed to reside. All this grand animal ma
ohinery is Of Itself no protective against sickness
and decay. Easy and perfect digestion, regular
and healthy secretiors, uncontaminated blood,
and regular discharge of the waste matter of the
body through the intestines, the kidneys and the
pores, are the most potent safeguards against dis
ease the best guarantees Of longevity. To promote
these objects is the great end and purpose Of hos
letters Stomach Bitters The ingredients of which
the Great Tonic and Alternative is composed are Ia
ken solely from the vegetable kingdom and their
medicinal virtues are not counterbalanced by the
acid and poisonous elements which exist, more or
less, in all the powerful mineral drugs Sufferers
from indigestion, biliousness intermittent fevers,
nervous debility or constipation, not only find
immediate relief from the use of this agreeable
stimulAnt and invigorant, but become conscious,
time wears on, of an increase Of constitutional
elasticity and vital force. labor and exposure no
longer produce the same effect upon them rs here
tof0re, and they feel as If they had acquired new
energy. This has been the experience Of thousands
Of both sexes, and every day adds to the mass OF
confrmAtory testimony. at this season OF the
year when the temperature and state of the atnos-
phere, exercise peculiarly depressing influence
over the minds and bodies Of invalids, Hostetttrs

tated can rely for swift and permanent restors-

THE New Y ork Sun says of the late
election for Mayor in Washington: ''The
administration put forth its utmost cxer-
tions to secure the triumph of Bowen.
The President took a special interest in
his success, for Bowen had figured active
ly and played conspicuous part in the
purchase of the famous house which had
been given to Gen. Grant by his admirers.
The emissaries of the administration and
the attaches of the Executive mansion
perambulated the departments, and gave
the clerks to understand that they were
expected to vote for Bowen, and that
any delinquency in this crisis would be
visited with sore displeasure by the lead
ers of the Republican party at the Capt.
tai" When these facts arc considered,
Grant and his administration came in Cor
as severe q condemnation as did Bowen.

The Interesting debate which was be-
gan on Friday relative to the liability of
the State for the bonds issued to the Min
eral Home Railroad was continued yester-
day. Senators Peyton and Etheridge
favored the passage of the bill of Senator
Cooper of Bedford, and Senators Cooper
of Davidson, Hall and Clementson, OPP
posed the bill. We presume that vote
win be reached to-day, though we do not
think the argument is yet exhausted.
The friends of the bill insist that the
issuance of the bonds was procured by
perjury and that they were sold in viola,
ton of law-at less than par; hence the
State is not liable for them.
The opponents of the bill insist that
the State cannot plead the fraud in her
defence, IS it was perpetrated by persons
designated by her upon her agents ap-
pointed to superintend the issuance of the
bonds; that her duly authorized agents
having, by the issuance of the bonds,
thereby certified to compliance of the
law in the procurement of the bonds, the
State cannot take advantage of a fraud
perpetrated by those designated by her to
report under oath TO the Governor as to o
compliance with the law, the bonds being
in the hands of third parties.
1t is further and urgently insisted by
the opponents of the bill that the credit
and honor of the State demand she should
recognize these bonds, even though they
were fraudulently issued rather than
suffer the loss in money and in character
which the stigma of reputation Will
cause her to endure. 1t is insisted that
all the railroad bonds ever issued by the
State were sold for less than par; that if
q violation of the law in that respect be a
cause for reputation, then the entire
railroad liability of the State may be re-
pudiated.
In our reference in Sundays issue to
the discussion between Senators Clement
son and Cooper of Bedford, we are made
to say: 'The former maintained that
the law and public policy favored the re-
pudiation; the latter insisted that both
opposed it." We intended to say directly
the reverse. Senator Cooper, as matter
of course, favors the passage of his bill.
Senator Clementson opposes il.
