INTERESTING TO DIsTILLERs. -
There are large number of grain
distilleries in Tennessee and Ken
lucky, the proprietors of which wish
to make brandy from fruit during the
warm months when they are unable to
distill whisky from grain. Heretofore
they have not been allowed to do this,
but the Commissioner of Internal
Revenue has just made decision In a
letter to Supervisor Cobb, of this dis
trict, by which he allows this kind of
work to be done. The decision is as
follows:
In case grain distillers wish to
change from grain to fruit they can
do so, and the spirits in their ware
houses may remain until the tax is due
under the warehousing bond, They
will not be allowed to put any. brandy
made from fruit into the warehouse
with such spirits, but will be required
to pay the tax in the manner prescribed
for all distillers of brandy from
peaches. apples, etc. The distilleries
must be again surveyed for fruit in ac-
cordance with law. If they have dis
continued operations rs grain distill-
ers, they must give bond as fruit dis
tillers, and also re-register their stills.

P. 81 would suggest that the COM
mittees from the three divisions of the
State meet in Nashville at the office of
the Tennessee Agricultural and Me-
chanical Association, on Saturday, the
18th of September, to block out the
order of work for the Convention !;
also that those committees secure the
services of three suitable gentlemen
from each division of the State as es-
sayists on the occasion, allowing them
to select their own subjects-bearing
upon agriculture and kindred interests.

LUCAS TO WINTERsMITH.
Capt. Lucas next folio VS. with q note
Withdrawing the offensive language, the
note closing as follows:
Between your father and myself the diff
fculty, in so far as it has assumed per-
sonal shape between us, has been properly
placed by me. 1t is not incapable of ad-
justment. Both have uttered harsh senti-
ments of the other. The origin was with
him; and in justice to myself | feel that he
ought to initiate the withdrawal. When he
does so l shall find no difficulty in follow
ing his example; and the matter will re-
main where It commenced, with the origi-
nal principals, for which, like yourself, am
perfectly willing. W. R. LUCAS.
DECISION OF HON. JEFFERSON DAVIS.
At this time the matter was referred to
the arbitrators for final adjustment; and
they, not being able to agree upon all the
points presented them, as was previously
mentioned, the entire correspondence was
referred to Hon. Jefferson Davis as an UNI
pire. Mr.. Davis gives his decision in the
following card:
MEMPHIS, June %, 1S73.-Messrs. l. G.
Harris, j. G. Breckenridge, J. P. johnson
and w. B. Bste-Gentlemen: Your letter
of the 21st inst, submitting to me the cor.
respondence and facts, together with your
several views, in regard to the controversy
between James G. Wintersmith and w. r.
Lucas, and between r. G. Wintersmith and
E. a. Cole, has been this day received.
After carefully reading the papers and ma
iurely considering your several views,
my opinion is that the difference between
you in regard to the terms of an smicsble
settlement, is rather as to the oder of pro
ceediDg than the substance of what may
be properly done; and that the collision
between Z. G. Wintersmith and Z. a. Cole,
being by their published statements purely
accidental, without previous hostility or
personal malice, all of which preceded the
grave Cff1nce of blow was so unimportant
and indeterminate that the pending matter
may be treated as beginning with that
event, and therefore that the first step
should be an ample apology on the part of
r. G. Wintersmith for that grave offence.
And that then all the correspondence be-
tween the parties should be formally with
'rawn in the order of the dates.
With sincere regard and esteem, am,
gentlemen, faithfully yours,
JEFFERSON DAVIS.
And thus ends the last sensation.

A REMARKABLE FAMILY.

A Columbia correspondent furnishes the
Memphis appeal some interesting facts in
regard to a remarkable Maury county
family, which we reproduce herewith, after
having made number of corrections,
mostly typographical:
81 take the liberty of giving short &C
count of a very remarkable and distinguish
ed family, some of the members of which
lived and yet live in this county. The first
Secretary of the Navy was Hon. Benjamin
Stoddert, who was the grandfather of Gen.
Ewell and his wife, both of whom died in
this county last year. He was the father of
the American navy. One of his daughters
was married TO Hon. q. w. Campbell, of
Tennessee, another 10 Hon. David
Hubbard, of Alabama, and another to
MIR. Ewel, of Virgins. Gen. Ewell's
military character is too well known to re-
quire any remarks from ne. Since the
war be has been very active N agricultural,
educational and church matters. He ia
vOred every improvement. He had the
finest sheep in Tennessee, and also very.
fine cattle. Just before his death he con-
templated establishing asleep farm in Lewis
or Perry county, y hich would have doubt
less been a success. His wife, who was
his first cousin, and daughter of Hon, g.
w. Campbell, was also a remarkable per-
son. He had brother, Tom Ewell, who
was the most brilliant young man that was
ever educated st The University of Nash
vile. He was appointed Lieutenant in the
Unit States army by President Polk. He
fell calamity at the battle of Cerro GordO,
in Mexico, and 60 much did he distinguish
himself, that he received especial common
dstion from General Scott, who had COM
mand of the army. Hon. Benjsmin Stod-
dert is the grandfather Of Rev. William
Stoddert, of Giles county, who is not only
an able divine, but is remarkable for his
"eccentricities," IS they are called, because
they are such uncommon acts Of charity
and self-reliance.
HAnotLer branch of this family resides
in West Tennessee. William Stoddert,
ESQ, who was the son of Benjamin Stod-
dert,Was an able and most successful lawyer
in Jackson. He was not only successful in
his profession, but N everything he under
took. He endesred himselftO the younger
members of his profession by the assist
ance he rendered them, and his memory is
now held in grateful remembrance by some
of the distinguished men in West Tennes-
see, whom he befrieDded in the commence
ment of their career. His wife was Miss
Mason, a relative ofGenersl Winfield Scott
and daughter of Daniel Mason, of Tonnes
see, and their children inherit the virtues
and characteristics Of their ancestors.
have mentioned this family because such a
succession Of worthy and distinguished per-
sons in one family is rather unusual, and
deserves special notice"

The PRICE OF Wheat.

The Athens (Tenn.) Post of the 18th in
slant, says: Trade in produce dali. Farm
ers are slow at engaging their wheat-$1.25
for red, 81 So for white being the highest
figures offered. We have heard of few
engagements at market price on delivery be-
tween this and LIST of August. Our inn
preston is from all the information we can
obtain that the price will not advance for
some time,
The Cleveland (Tenn.) Banner of the
18th lust, says: A firm in this place informs
us that they have been authorized by some
Southern millers to buy wheat at the fol-
lowing figures :-Sl,35 for prime white, and
SIPS for good red. They also inform US
that they have conditionally bought a few
crops at the prices mentioned. 1t seems
from this that we were rather above the
mark in our statement that we thought it
would open at Sl.50 per bushel.

The man who puts a bullet through his head
dies more speedily than he who is continually
sending volleys Of strong, cathartic pills down
his throat; but the drastic pllets are as fatal in
the end as the leaden bali. 1t is only question
of time. Common sense should teach everybody
that the idea OF expelling disease by subyerting
the bodily vigor which is its natural antagonist
is supremely absurd. There should be no pUr-
cation without inauguration and regulation.
These three processes shuld go on together and
they do so in an cases where HOstetter's Stomach
Bitters are used as a remedy for disease, or for
the general debility growing out Of a torpid state
of the digestive and secretive organs. In this
great vegetable restorative min Sled three es-
sential elements of cure: purifying element a
tonic element, and an anti-biiOus element. BY
these meaus dyspepsia, bilious disorders, inter
mittent levers, sick headache, constipation and
nervous debility are readily cured and epidemic
disease prevented, jyS cod lW&Wlt 2dp
