Republican Success in Nashville.

We congratulate our friend Hon. Thos.
A. Kercheval, upon his election rs Mayor
of Nashville. He defeated X. j. Morris,
who has held the position two years, by
seventy-six votes. The Banner speaking
of it says:
The colOred people grew very jubilant
last evening, and turned out with fife and
drum and took possession of the newly
elected Mayor, shortly after it became APP
parent that the returns from the Fourth
Ward would place him ahead of Mayor
Morris. In brief speech he said he held
that he was not elected byany party, but
by the masses of the people, who choose
him as their Mayor in preference to an
aristocrat who had had the office repeated
ly. He said that, while serving through
his term, he would endeavor to further the
interests of this city,
The Union and american says:
The municipal election yesterday result
ed in a Radical triumph, the election of a
Radical Mayor by a handsome majority.
This too upon q reasonably full vote; lar
ger vote than was cast last year. The Gin
dependant" policy was pursued; 'every
man for himself and the devil take the
hindmost." The result: a Radical tri-
umph here in the city Of Nashville, the
capital of the State, beating a true and tried
incumbent,

Rather Personal.

The Nashville Banner pays its respects
to Landon c. Haynes, Democratic candi-
date for Congress in the Memphis District,
as follows:
Colonel (?) Landon c. Haynes, who has
spent the greater part off useless life in ask
ing for office who helped to precipitate his
State into war against the Union, for no
higher purpose than office; who was pro-
claiming, in 1860, from the stump: Ito HI
with such a union ~ who was one of those
valorous precipitators, who believed wine
glass would hold all the blood that would be
split in the wal, ,and when oceans Oft acere
spilling, took precious good care that none
of his helped TO swell the incarnadine
current; who went to an Office in the
Confederate Congress while the poor lads
he had seduced into rebellion went to the
field and to the trenches; who in
that Congress voted to remove the
lamented Albert Sidney Johnson because
he was unable to hold powerful army in
check without an army of his own; who
passed laws of conscription to force other
men into the hail of shot and shell-laws
excepting the owner of fifteen slaves from
military duty, but forcing the father of fif-
teen children into the bloody chasm of
death or mutilation of limb-this virtuous
| patriot, who nowhere raised his voice since
| the war to liberalize the sections and close
| the bloody chasm, is now again candidate
for ofiice-in this era of peace and reconcil-
iation-a candidate for Congress against
an able Memphis journalist who was new
er in Office, who was Confederate soldier
| from the beginning of the war to its close,
always at the front, who, since the war,
has done more for the good ofthis section,
with his pen, than Haynes ever did for il
in his whole life, except TO ruin II.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30-Oregon elected
Mitchell, Republican to the United States
Senate. Mitchell succeeds Corbett.
The acting commissioner of Internal
Revenue, in view of the ambiguity of IL
portion of section seventeen of the act of
June G., 1872, imposing a special tax on
dealers in malt liquors, and in view of the
supposed intention of Congress, has decid-
ed that wholesale and retail liquor dealers
may continue to sell malt liquors under
their special tax receipts as such, without
being assessed as malt liquor dealers, and
that the collection of taxes assessed contra
ry to that construction shall be suspended
until the question can be brought before
Congress-. Persons who sell only malt
liquors are liable only to the special taxes
of twenty or fifty dollars as they are
wholesale or retail dealers in malt liquors.
The acting commissioner of Internal
Revenue decides that on and after Octo-
Der lst, 1872, MOI stamps will be required
upon checks, drafts, and orders except
such as are drawn on sight or on demand
upon banks, brokers and trust companies.
He also decides that on and after that date
no stamps are necessary upon foreign bills
of exchange.
