RICH IN TIMBER.

The mineral, agricultural and
manufacturing resources of the
South are themes worthy of even
more than the great esteem in which
they are held but these do not
limit the resources Of the South
Her forest afford an almost unbound
cd source of wealth. The north and
all Europe are now buying our lum-
Der at from $35 to $40 per thousand
feet and the price will advance and
the demand will grow until the
woodman, when he should, will cease
TO spare the trees. In response to
the ever growing demand and the
clink Of gold, the axe will fall re-
gardless of the inevitable approach
of period when the South will need
the timber as much as Europe and
the North need it now and when it
would be worth to her q thousand
times more.

MAST.
A Washington dispatch says

A Washington dispatch says
Letters have been received in this
city from prominent Democrats who
have been invited to enter into a
movement for the formation of a
third party, asserting their positive
objection to such proceedings at pres
ent, and suggesting that slow haste
be made in csming to conclusions
upon the subject of wandering from
the Democratic organization or of
merging it into new party without
full and complete consultation and
counsel among the leading men of
the party.
The Mobile Register nails the
colers to the mast: "The Demo-
cratic party cannot die while ray
of hope is left of Constitutional Gov
eminent. 1t was born with the
Constitution, it can only die with it.
If die it husband we are far from

SENATE.
MONDAY, Dec. 4, 1877

A bill to equalize taxation in this
State, being unfinished business, was
taken up.
The bill provides for the appoint
ment by the ordinary of each coun-
ty of three tax assessors who shall
assess all lands in the county.
Mr.. Smith spoke in favor of the
bill on the ground that it would tend
to increase the amount of taxes by
restraining the practice of making
false returns and would place honest
men on an equal footing with those
making such returns.
Mr.. Burns opposed the bill as an
unnecessary innovation on a time
honored system. 1t is impractical
BILE, and would demand an entire
change of the revenue system. 1t
multiplies offices. The tax laws are
already complete, and he thought
the oath of the owner ought to be
conclusive as to the value of proper
ty, he being the best judge thereof.
MIR. Hinton favored the bill. The
present system puts premium on
dishonesty. HO said two-thirds of
the property owners give in their
lands below their real value. 1t is
no greater hardship to refuse the tax
payer the privilege of valuing his
own property than to excuse a Judge
from presiding in a case involving
his own interest.
The bill was passed by ayes 10,
nays Is.
On motion of Mr.. Brown the bill
providing for the pay of officers was
taken up and put on its passage.
This bill provides that the pay of
officers shall be $40 per day, and of
members 81 per day, with five dol
lars for every twenty miles travelled
in going and returning. The Jul
dietary Committee reported in favor
of its passage.

CURE FOR CANCER.

Accounts of speedy and etfectual
cures of cancer by the use of clover
tea continue to reach us from all di-
rcctions. From Brooks county,
Georgia, a responsible gentleman
writes to the Knoxville Wing, CIV
ing the case Of lady who had been
afflicted for eighteen years with a
cancer which resisted the efforts OF
the best medical skill to affect a
cure or even an alienation of the
disease. The cancer had attacked
her on the right cheek, just below
the eye, and had eaten pretty much
all that side of her face, together
with the eye, and the greatest por-
ton of her nose. This lady has
been completely cured in a few
months by the use of clover tea
The red clover is used /; the tops are
boiled in water, and the tea is used
externally and internally. About a
quart day should be drank, and
the tea should be used as a wash
twice every day. This remedy
should have the widest publicity
1t is inexpensive, and if it should
fail to effect cure, in any case it
can certainly do no harm.
