Quite an excitement was aroused at
Essex Centre, few days ago, by the
appearance within its limits of an I'M
kempt looking man, who bore an as
tonishing likeness to the photograph of
Wagner that had Just been received by
the postmaster that day. The resem-
blancc was 80 striking that the sheriff
had the man arrested, and not until he
produced Il paper of that day, in which
the news of Wagner's re-arrest was
given, could they be persuaded to let
him go. 1t is still believed, however,
that he was an escaped jail-bird.

VALIDITY OF ATTACHMENTS.

The most important of the cases de-
cided in the Supreme Court yesterday,
was that Of Walker VS.. Cotrell, Judge
Deaderick delivering the opinion Of the
court. The plaintiff, before the war,
had been the owner Of a tract of land
in the suburbs of Knoxville, on the west
sideofthe Clinton Pike. He left the State
in 1868, and in 1864 attachment bills
were filed against him by certain cred
itOrs, and his lands brought to sale
The purchasers at the sale had sold the
land out III town lots, and by the growth
of the city and the improvements put
upon it, the land had been more than
quadrupled in value. Walker, argu-
ing the attachment proceedings
were illegal, had brought actions
of ejectment against the present
owners; and this was made test
case. The controlling question in the
case was the validity of the attachment
proceedings; counsel and court both
took occasion to review and comment
upon the decisions of the Supreme
Court of the United States recently
made IN regard to our attachment laws,
and the whole doctrine of attachment
deliberately discussed. To the bar it is
interesting to know that the court man-
imously refused to adopt the view of
our attachment law expressed by the
Supreme Court of the United States,
and stood by their former decisions. To
the citizens Of Knoxville and vicinity,
1t is only of interest to state that Walk
er was unsuccessful in his suit and the
present owners were confirmed in their
titles.-KnoaUille Press and Herald,

SOUTH CAROLINA, like Louisiana,
suffers from the heavy taxes which the
Radical rulers of that State have i'm
posed upon her property holders. A
South Carolina correspondent of the
NclC York Sun writes that the financial
stringcncy is felt with terrible effect in
that State, and that prominent Re
publican official told him that it was
not probable that one-half the whites
would be able to pay their taxes, which
are soon coming due. The negro pro-
perty holders can do better, as they are
permitted to return their property at
any valuation they see fit to place upon
it, while the whites, unless they support
the Moses government, have theirs
rated at two or three times its real
worth. A gentleman who used to farm
ten thousand acres of land, but has
been compelled to sell all of it except
small farm-getting only nominal pri-
ces for what he sold in consequence of
the deplorable state of affairs exist
ing in South Carolina-told the Suns
correspondent that the tax to be paid
on his little farm was greater than all
the taxes levied on the thousands Of
acres he had parted with. The reason
was that the buyers of his property
were supporters of the present State
government and were allowed to fix
their own valuation.

& CHANGE COMING IN NATIONAL
POLITICS.

The Philadelphia Age calls attention
to the observation Of an old statesman,
that no party ever survived the down.
fall of its financial policy, and adds:
"As to political dogmas they could be
twisted and turned to meet the exigen-
cics Of the occasion. But when mems
fortune had been reduced, their bust
ness broken up 'or destroyed, their fu-
ture standing impaired by the financial
system of party, that was the death
of that party. 1t could not retain
power. Its sceptre must pass into other
hands. Other men must fill the offices,
and give systems, and policies and laws
to the people. This is the condition of
the Republican party of the United
States at the present time. Their
financial system has collapsed. The
bubble has been punctured, and the
nation has been suffering in all its bus
mess interests. This presages the ad-
vent of the Democratic party to power.
The late elections also give assurance
Of such change in the views of the peo-
plc in all parts Iof ithe country as will
soon push the Republican party from
its stool of power, and install the Dem
ocratic party in its place. !"

OUTRAGEOUS CONDUCT.

The following is from the Memphis DIP
peal of Sunday: On the downward trip of
the steamer Phil Allin the second clerk,
Mcdonald, had occasion to demonstrate
with drunken negro named William Fer
guSon, because of his boisterous conduct
and annoying language. Ferguson, who is
a justice of the peace in Crittenden county,
Arkansas, swore vengeance against McDOn-
aid for his actions in the matter. Yester-
day morning when the Phil Allin arrived
at Jones' landing, Arkansas, eight miles
below this city, she was boarded by crowd
Of armed negroes, led by Ferguson, who
attacked and captured Mcdonald. The
brutes tied their prisoner securely and then
subjected him to every imaginable taunt
and cumulative abuse that fiendish malice
could suggest. They avowedly left with
their prisoner for Marion, the county seat,
where he is to undergo the mockery of a
trial, without a witness to state the cir
cumstances of the case and narTate the
truth. When the negroes started off with
Mcdonald they were excited and made
several fearful threats. Whether or not he
was taken to Marion or murdered by the
wayside is not definitely known. Further
developments are anxiously looked for by
the friends of the unfortunate man. Such
proceedings, if repeated, will arouse a Bit
terness of spirit that nothing, save revenge
in its most summary form, can ever still or
aSSuage.

SINCE government officials have be-
come so corrupt, and every ministerial
function is a matter of bargain and
sale under Radical rule, the laws allow
ing the renewal Of patents have often
been abused to the advantage of rings
without any more benefit to the orig
inal inventor than to the public at
large. In consequence, wenOte amove-
ment among the Western oranges to
secure an amendment to the patent
laws, granting the inventor a certain
amount of profit from his invention in
stead of letting it run for a certain
length of time, and doing away with all
renewals of patents. 1t is proposed
that in case of a valuable invention, a
record of the machines sold be kept in
the Patent Office, and whenever the
profits reach certain sum, say $780,
600, the invention be thrown open to
the world. In this way, they reason,
the embargo ponmanufacturing would
be taken off, and the machines in ques-
ton could be made in any part of the
country and offered to the public at
greatly reduced rates. The idea is not
a bad one, but how shall the real value
to the inventor, of various patents for
various objects, be estimated? The
inventor, as well as the laborer, is
worthy of his hire, but brain work is
difficult of appraisement. Some few
inventions are worth 100000. The
great majority of those patented are
worth-nOthing.
