UNCLE sAm,s BooK.KEEPlNe


Mr.. Randall, of Pennsylvania, in q recent
speech in the House Of Representatives
shows the existence Of most unaccountable
discrepancies between different accounting
officers Of the government, as to the amount
of collections from internal revenue from
Sept. 1, 1852, TO July 1, 1871:
according to the Secretary of the
Treasury's Finance Report, 1871,
pages "A and 16 the sum total
of Internal Revenue collections
was. -
Internal Revenues Report 1871,
pages 27s and 2T9, the total was. 81 626, 90, $50
According to the Fifth Auditors
Report, Jan. l, 1871, page 1853,
and Finance Report, 1871, pages
24 and 205, the total was....... 81 437 ,648, 102
According to the Register of the
Treasury's Report, the total is... S1d1 sol ,666
Which show the following discrepancies ::
Excess Commissioner over Secretary II 1886, 43O
Excess Secretary over Register"...... 81 ,6lU,IsI
Excess Commissioner over Register. 54,6Il POI
Excess Register over Auditor. 1874, 25S ,557
Excess Secretary over Auditor ...... III, S94, SIS
Excess Commissioner over Auditor. 1sS,924, 779
These discrepancies would disgrace bust
ness men not in the public service. For the
enc year ending June 80, 1864, we find
discrepancy between the statement of the
Fifth Auditor and the Commissioner Of In
ternal Revenue amounting to 81, 776, 427;
for the year ending June 80, 1866, SS0,331,
500, and for the year ending June 80, 1886,
S52,864, 4l6. When two accounting officers
of the Government cannot come nearer
each other than flfty-three millions in their
respective statements of the total of col
lectiens made from internal revenue for one
year, it is time to suspect something wrong.

Russell, Lee Scott, Tazcwell, he is the
very strongest man in the District,

sweeping everything west of the New

those Of our readers who may write
him down as a very strong man, will
have come to very wise and sound
conclusion. There is not blot upon
him, and there is in him a very vast

EDITOR BRISTOL News:
In reading your paper closely.
as always do. read with much in
tercst the debate on the Organ qucs-
ton. This subject is one of interest.
But the Rev. Mr.. Robson, will have
to resort to better fields for argument,
than the poetry of David, or the
love songs of Solomon, if he wishes
to convince the progressive minds,
that Organs are a nuisance. He is
particular to demand the chap ter
and verse, or ''thus sayeth the
Lord for the practice If this be
an argument, then where will the
great modern blessings of Sunday
School &C., go to? Or where is a

John testiies he saw Lamb stand
ing on the Mount Zion. and with
him hundred forty and four thou
sand, having his fathers name writ
ten in their foreheads, and says; Il
heard voice from Heaven as the
voice of many waters-and as of great
thunder" and Il heard the voice Of
Harpers, Harping with their Harps."
John often speaks of harps and
trumpets being used in Heaven to
praise God with-and gives his testi-
mony as an eye witness upon the lone
Isle Of Patmos, looking into Heaven
through an uplifted window. Now
in this connection, take the SaviouIs
prayer: THY will be done on earth
as it is done in Heaven" and we are
driven to the conclusion. that if it is
wrong to use Organs in religious SER
vice, that John was either mistaken
about what he says he saw, or that
our blessed Saviour did not know,
what he was praying for.
Respectfully &c,

AN APPEAL.

We have before us several letters
from leading citizens of Tazewcll,
Giles and Bland counties, claiming
that Justice and fair dealing demand
recognition of the claims OF the
people of that Valley in the distribu-
ton of leading Offices and positions
in the Southwest. Those people
have, in all the past, rolled up heavy
party majorities for us, and during
the war they spent literally of their
treasure and best blood in sustaining
our common cause. Yet, with the
exception of opposition and irregular
candidates from Scott and Lee coun-
ties, the leading offices, have invari-
ably been bestowed upon citizens who
have lived in our Railroad Valley.
Neihter Tazcwell, nor Giles, nor
Bland, nor Russell, have ever vOlted
q nomination, that we are aware of,
We say with a due regard to grave
and proper consequences, that, if we
wish to husband our strength and
preserve compacJly our unity, some
thing should be conceded to the
people ofthc Valley alluded to- And
we will further remark, that if the re-
mainder of the District can be
brought to the same conclusion,
Washington County will not be found
deaf to the reasonable calls which
now lie on our desk.
The candidates for Congress are so
numerous and pressing, that we can
not foretell the combinations which
are possible, but with the Federal
Court, and the Court of Appeals, and
with the L. S. Senator. the Circuit
Judge during the whole of our past,
and with the Congressman for nearly
twenty years, we can afford to hold
parlev with our friends across the
mountains.

RAILWAY CONSOLIDATION
IN TENNESSEE.
Capt. gaqucs Promoted.

On Monday last the Southern Rail-
way. Security Company entered upon
its ninety nine year lease Of the Mem
phis and Charleston railroad and its
branches. The President, G.. W.
Cass has given official notice that the
general management of the same has
been committed to Capt. Joseph
jacques, of Knoxville.
This extensive field of operations
will afford scope for the highest de-
gree Of railway management, and the
appointment is one Of very decided
honor to Capt, Jaques. That it may
be both profitable and pleasant to
him we very ardently wish. His Ca
pacity and character have been de-
velopcd and confirmed by a very sue
cessful and useful career, beginning
in the hard school of youthful adver-
sity and GROWING him in the prime
Of manhood with a station scarcely
secondary in Importance and honor
to any in the country.

the Editors of the Border Wdtchmdn

clinched when they were both arres-
ted and Eeld in bonds of 81 900
each to keep the peace. and a like
amount to answer at the Circuit
