Washington News,

From the special telegraphic CORES,
pondence Of the Louisville Courier-Jour
nal, we CLEAN the following from Wash,
ington:
The administration appears to be re-
tracing its steps in the proposition to
declare marshal law in South Carolina
The cabinet meeting which was appoint
ed to dispose Of the question on Friday
last, has been indefinitely postponed.
Two facts have contributed to this re-
subtitle first is a protest from inAuen.
tial Republican quarters against such a
step, and the second is tho entire alb
sence of any confirmation OF Senator
SCOTS bugaboo stories as to the condition
Of affairs in that State. The War De-
partment reports from officers Of the
army on duty in South Carolina utterly
fail to mention any new outrages, as al
legged, and the department therefore has
no intention Of issuing q circular letter
of instructions, as has been reported.

Death of Hon, VIM, Heigkel1,

The intelligence reached us ON Sun.
day, Of the death of Hon. VIM. Heiskell
Of Knoxville. Mr.. Helskell was one Of
the leading men of East Tennessee
For many years he was identified with
the political contests in this section o.
the State, and served with distinction
two terms in the Legislature. He was,
during his last term, elected Speaker Of
the House Of Representatives, and dis
charged the duties of that position, at
an important and trying period, so as
to command the respect OF all parties.
He was IL of those sagacious men
who aided in the establishment of the
general internal improvement system
by which Tennessee's wealth and re-
sources have been developed, and was
always amongst the foremost in al pub
lie enterprises tending to promote the
interests of the people. The announce
ment of his death will cause a pang in
the hearts of his numerous friends who
are to be found in every part of the
State. He had lived to q good old age,
and all his life commanded the respect
and confidence of those with whom he
was constantly associated.

The Lost Cause.

Many of our readers will doubtless
DO surprised when they read an editorial
of the Now York Herald, which we pub
lish in this Issue. 1t is written upon a
circular p~urporting to be issued in the
interest of the "Lost Cause or to aid
in the separation of the South from the
North, and the establishment of the
Southern Confederacy. We believe the
circular to be, and pronounce it a vile
Radical fabrication, and utterly repudi-
ate the illusions to the distinguished
Southern men mentioned as totally un-
worthy of credence, and slanderous.-
The Herald article referred to shows the
alarm of the Radical party for the re-
suit of the Presidential election. 1t de-
velopes the plan Of the Radical cam
paign, of which the Democratic press of
the whole country have been striving to
convince the people. They are despair
ing OF success upon any other basis than
that of inducing the Northern people to
believe the South hostile to the govern
ment and full Of violence. It also shows
the use the Radicals intend to make Of
the violent opposition Of Southern men
to the Northern Democracy, and Radi-
cal determination by the basest means
to widen the division in the Democratic
ranks, and encourage dissension.

THE ENTERPRISE.
, SweetwatCr. Thursday, Sep. IL, 1871
Eastern Division Fair.

We again call the attention Of the
people-tbe farmers Of Monroe county,
to the fact that the Eastern Division
Fair commences at the Fair Grounds
near Knoxville, on the 10th day of 0c-
tober, and viii continue until the even
ing Of the l4th.
Will the people Of Monroe county be
represented? Or will they lie idle and
do nothing to encourage this enterprisep
1t is ono Of the grandest and most bene-
fetal enterprises ever gotten up in East
Tennessee; an enterprise which will
give you information that you cannot
obtain elsewhere; an enterprise that all
should feel interested in, knowing as
o do that in your hands hangs the
destiny Of the people. Without the
farmer and stock raiser, We would be
more than helpless. Then, If you wish
TO learn something about farming and
stock raising--if you wish to examine
ind select the best farming implements,
by which your farms may be titled to
advantage, go to the fair. But don't go
for this purpose alone; take something
with you to exhibit, and show to the
people of East Tennessee, that Monroe
county is not behind the times.
The President and Directors are doing
all in their power to make the Fair a
complete success. We have before us
the premium list In pamphlet form,
wherein nearly every article raised on
the farm, manufactured in shops, grown
in the gardens, and numberless other
things which we cannot mention in this
article, is laid down. No matter what
you take with you to be placed on exhi-
bition, it will receive attention.
If cur farmers will take nothing to the
Fair and contend tor a premium, our
ladies can send or carry with them arti-
cles of their own manufacture, such rs
jeans, linsey, flannel, blankets, carpeting,
wooden and cotton hose, patch work,
bed quilts, counterpanes, embroidery,
pickles, %jellies, preserves, &c, needle
work, and anything in that line. Work
is the motto. Let all turn out and lend
assistance, and stir up ~ interest and
knowledge of, and in, Fairs generally.
1t must be remembered, also, that we
expect to have a Fair in our own county
next year, and if our people will do what
we think they should do, this thing can
be accomplished. Then let us not be
behind hand, but go to work and en-
courage every enterprise that has a ten
dency to put money in circulation, and
increase the value Of our lands and
property. We are on the road to pros
perity, and If we do not reach the sum-
NIT, it will be our own fault. The peo-
pie Of East Tennessee have the money,
they have the energy, and all that is lack
king is the will. Spend your money
and energy to advantage, and you will
undoubtedly succeed in carrying out
any enterprise that you may undertake.
Besides, you will fill and build up the
waste places of our beloved East Ten
nessee. Remember the Fair commences
the 10th of October. Don't fail to do
something to encourage those who are
doing all they can for the prosperity
and happiness Of the people.
The Sweetwater enterprise. (Sweetwater, Tenn.) 1869-187?, 1871-09-14

We take the following editorial on the
subject Of the assembling of the new
Legislature from the Tennessee Patriot,
and endorse every word contained in it,
as regards the selection of Speakers,
Clerks, Doorkeepers, &C.:
On the first Monday in next month
u Legislature will assemble at Nash
vile. Much depends upon the action of
this body, as regards the prosperity of
the State, and we hope that their delib-
erations may manifest the fact that they
are equal to the emergency.
In the selection of their officers from
Speakers down to D~oorkeepers, they
should, and doubtless will, look to the
capacity and qualifications Of each for a
faithful and ready performance of their
respective duties. The habit of electing
men to such important positions, on the
score of favoritism, has become too prev
alent, and if the Legislature expects to
meet the appreciation of the people, it
should discard such considerations and
select mon for all the ministerial posi-
tions who can readily assist them in a
rapid transaction Of the business that
may come before them. An incompe-
tent Speaker or Clerk will necessarily
delay all business, prolong the session,
and cause Irregularities that will be hard
to remedy.
As to the questions that are likely to
be considered, we are at o loss to speak.
One thing, however, we feel authorized
to say, and that is, hat q more efficient
system Of Public Schools will no doubt
DO established. The futility of the pres
emit n is manifest TO every thinking
mind, and nothing short Of an effective
and efficient State System will meet the
wants Of the people. Interested as we
are in this vital question, we shall watch
their proceedings upon this subject with
much interest as we'll as anxiety.

More C%OrruptiOn.

A special report to the Treasury De-
partment from on agent sent to investi-
gate the case, states that the Receiver Of
the Land Office for Washington Terri
tory is a defaulter to the extent of $685.
900, and that the Governor Of the Ter
ritory is involved in borrowing the mo-
ney from the officer. The facts, it is
stated, we're laid before the President
some time ago. and the removal of the
official demanded by the delegate in Con-
gress from that Territory, but no notice
has been taken Of the matter.

The young men of the Massachusetts,
Democracy are FESTIVE under the re-
s~traints Of fogyism. They have recent
ly issued a sharp and cutting address, in
which they say that "a State Committee
Of workers and thinkers" is sadly want
ed, whose "hands are not too delicate to

duced quite q rafting among the dry

The repeal ott4eIpcome Tax at the
present session Of Congress b not so
promising as 1t appeared q week ago,
or as we should like to see 1t. 1t ought
to be easy to abolish a tax which costs
as much to collect It as it yields which
is odious to a great part Of the people,
and which, as it brings in nothing to
the Treasury, can be spared by the
Government. Judge Ortiz, Of Indiana,
who has voted to sustain this tax, now
announces that he is convinced that 1t
Is inexpedient and unjust to retain 1t.
The sentiment fop repeal in Congress
is reported stronger every day. This
has been the cry for wrecks, and Tues
day week was named as the day when
the Senate would take Il up and pass
1t "almosti unanimously So, Tues
day came, and with the halEheart0d-
ness which characterizes that branch
of Congress when taxes are to be re-
duced, that body allowed its previous
decision, making 1t the special order,
to pass unnoticed., Mr.. SCOTS attempt
to bring up the question was ineffect'
ual. Mr.. Sherman, whose resistance
to fiscal relief has been as consistent
as it is inexplicable. brings the weigh
of the Finance Committee to beal
against repeal. The Senate will make
a mistake, however, If It follows MIR
| Sherman's lead. In the House, W.
gladly believe, the prospect for repea
Is brighter. Mr.. Kelley Is not alone II
his appreciation of the Importance o.
cutting down internal taxation as q
means of enabling him to carry Other
favorite ideas, and he rightly concen'
trates attention upon the Income Tax
as a burden no longer required by the
Treasury, and especially odious to the
community. Tie Income Tax, as II
was levied, had always a large element
10y
of injustice and oppressivenes.. II
sxacted the same percentage from sal
aries and earningsasfromthe profit o.
invested fortunes. 1t was linguistic
rial ; 1t exposed mems private affair:
to the public in a manner always an
noying and often injurious, But the
tax was paid so long rs It was believed
that the Government got the money
and needed 1t. Now, however, the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue
says it will cost as much to collect II
as 1t Is likely to yield under the new
law, and therefore there Is no justif'
cation for such n tax.
