THE STOKES CASE.

FROM the washington Patriot, Oct 81.
The following document was brought to
the Patriot Office last night, in the hand
writing of Mr.. n. H. Miller, with request
that it be published. We comply with the
request:
seen. Crittenden and N. II. Miller, ESQ.,,
the attorneys of Hon. w. B. Stokes, re-
quest us to say that several articles have
been published in the papers of this city,
all of which assume the guilt of Gen.
Stokes. These articles will create pre-
judice against him, and are untrue.
"From personal knowledge of facts by
one of the attorneys, (Mr. Miller,) and
from a careful examination of the case by
both, they are satisfied that the charge of
fraud is unfounded, and cannot be sus-
tanned before the court.
"The high private and public character
of the accused ought to secure for him a
fair hearing Of this the first offence ever
charged against him."
1t is the most natural thing in the world
that Messrs. Crittenden and Miller should
desire to create an impression that their
client is guiltless. If they do not believe
him innocent, who, in the name of con-
science, viii so believe. Il is also very nat
ural that they should proclaim in advance
that the charge of fraud cannot be sustained
before the courts. That remains to be
seen. An honest jury will probably not be
convinced as easily as counsel are who &C
cept fees for their services. akH
Mr.. Miller says he has personal knowledge
Of the facts. That does not seem to be a
matter at all disputed. We concede that
point,

THE Washington Patriot Of Oct. 81, says:
:" is believed that nearly all the Tennessee
claims which have been audited and paid
during the last two years are fraudulent,
and there is to be an immediate and general
overhaulingo of all these transactions. Victor
G. Powell, the clerk in the Second Audi
tors Office, who is charged with completely
with Stokes in the Beatty Company case,
made overtures to claim agents here to
collect the claims before the job was under
taken by the Tennessee Congressman, and
be supplied all the information required in
framing the bill, while Stokes engineered it
through Congress. The Washington claim
agents would have nothing to do with the
case because Of its clearly fraudulent char
acter, and yet it passed the scrutiny of the
military committees of both Houses and the
bill was sspoded by them with recon-
mendatien for its passage.

EAST TENNESSEE RAILROAD PRO.

sAbSASs
Referring TO the interest lately awakened
in East Tennessee by actual and reported
movements of capitalists and railroad oper-
ators in regard TO the various East Tennes-
see roads, the Knoxville Press and Herald
Of the LIST inst. says:
The sensation in business circles, has been
the reported sale of the East Tennessee
railroads to the Pennsylvania Central Rail
road Company. The Memphis appeal has
charged that certain of the larger hold
ers OF STOCK had sold enough to give the
pennsylvania Company control of the road,
and thereby place the smaller stockholders
at their mercy. That negotiations pointing
to change IN the connections and man
agement OF the roads have been COM
menced, We think highly probable. lint that
the gentlemen controlling a majority Of fbe
stock in the present company, have anv
idea of disposing of their interest n the
prejudice of the small share holders is
we believe, entirely without foundatio1
in fact. Without knowing precisely what
Is Intended, enough is known to enable ms
TO state that the present move is with
view to secure to the roads now completed
as well as to some of the projected lines re-
Gently sold by the State, a share in the car
rying trade Of the trunk lines now being
projected across the continent through
Texas and at the same time secure to the
people of East Tennessee a competing line
to the eastern cities. Should the gentle
men at the head of this move be successful,
the people Of East Tennessee viii be the
largest gamers, as it could not fail to attract
to our borders the capital now so badly
needed with Which to develop the resources
Of our section of the State.

The total number of acres of land in the
State taxed in 1861 was 20, 291 ,596, and in
1871, 24,467,25S 1t thus appears that
2,153,0S3 acres in the remaining counties
which paid taxes in 1861, did not pay taxes
in 1871. An examination of the table will
show that many of the counties return this
year very large number Of acres less than
they did in 1861, notwithstanding there has
been no legislation to change their lines.
The proportions of some of these counties
fall below those of 1861 in amounts all the
way up to 237,5G4 acres, which is the
amount returned for Van Buren, less than
in 1861. There are about 100000 acres
Of land in the State, yet this year only
p, 467, 258 acres were assessed for taxation.
1t thus appears that more than 100000
acres were not taxed at all. This results
from the neglect of the assessors to ascer-
tain definitely the number of acres owned
by each tax payer in their respective dis
tricts. This is a defect which ought to be
remedied, and can be remedied by the ap-
pointment Of the right sort of men as
assessors, or by requiring land owners to
give in the number of acres they
possess under oath. Some men give
to the assessors every acre of land and
every dollar of taxable property they
own, but the returns to the Comptroller
show that great many do not. 1t is I'M
just to the former that the latter should not
be made to bear their just proportions of
the burdens of the State government, and
it is the duty of the Legislature to devise a
remedy for the evil. We have already
shown that there is nothing like fairness in
the valuation fixed upon lands in the same
county for taxation. Take Davidson coun-
ty as an Illustration. In 1861, the average
value of land in the county, excluding town
lots, was S35.9S; in 1867 it was fixed at
S29.S4; in 1868 at S27.46; in 1869 at
$3.50, and in 1871 at $29.16. Every body
knows that land has been held higher since
the war than before it, yet the average
value of this year is $3.50 below that of
1861 What is true Of Davidson county is
equally true of very large portion of the
counties in this State. These facts viii, We
judge, convince, the members Of the Legis-
lature that very radical change is needed |
in the manner of ascetaining the amount |
of property subject to taxation, and assess
ing its taxable value.

Ex-CoLLECroR BAILEY, Of New York,

respondent Of the Washington Star to be
leading life of elegant leisure in Monte
video, having gone 10 housekeeping in ex-
penslye style con shares" with the United
States resident Minister. His explanation
of his sojoarn in Uruguay is that his tenn
porary withdrawal from his own country
was advised ''for fear Of embarrassing the
Administration or party in power, or of
compromising it with the people," This is
the reason why his bah has never been pro-
