not for the clamor to the contrary, seventy-five
days is not sufficient time in which TO consider
the necessary legislation for the State. Far bet
ter would il have been for the people, to have
provided for the converting of the legislature
evey four instead of every two years, and left
that body with sufficient time in which to de-
liberate upon the many subjects always before
it, | think it would be much better to have
fewer sessions and longer time. Those who
would con6ne a legislative session to seventy
i've days never stop to think how much easier
it is for one man to write down what he thinks
should be the law, than it is to procure the con-
sent Of ninety-ntn6 other men, that itmay be the
law. Let us have q constitutional convention
at the earliest practicable time and all these
evils may be remedied.
Yet, 1 cannot refrain from one other allusion,
and that is, that the men who declsim the loud~
est against the policy of having to render q
schedule of their taxables under oath, and there
by expose their hidden wealth to the demands
of the State in the way of taxes, have never
been heard to complain of the provision they
forced into the State Constitution, requiring the
poor man to march up to the ballot box, with a
poll tax receiptin his hand, before he should
exercise the common right of an Amer
lean 10 vote for the rulers of his coun-
try It's all right with them to make the poor
man pay his way to the polls-to make him pro-
duce his tax receipt or suffer Acknowledgement,

has lodged and refused to pay taxes like his

some Trouble at Carexxi,le.

For some time past parties have been
bringing whisky from Scott county to
Careyville, and always succeeded in selling
the same before any of the revenue Off
GERS could reach that place. To remedy
this matter, Col. A. S. Mariner was APP
pointed a special Deputy Marshal, with
power to make arrests If the parties re-
turned. On Wednesday a Mr.. Gibson and
his two sons from Scott county, arrived
there with an OK team loaded with wills
ky, which they We're retailing out. Col.
Mariner at once made the arrest OF one
of the parties, the remainder making their
escape, and sent him to this city, while
the wagon, oxen, and whisky were kept
at Careyville for further orders. The
prisoner, after arriving here, persuaded his
guard to go with him to a restaurant after
something to eat, and while there passed
out the back way for parts unknown.
On Thursday evening Deputy Collector
McLemore was sent over to CarryVille to
take charge of the property. He started
with the same on Friday morning for this
city, but on seeing several persons skulk-
ing around in the woods about mile from
that place, he retreated in good order to
the protection of Col. Mariner. In the
evening it seems reinforcements came from
Scott county, and our revenue officials
though it advisable to drive the oxen into
| a coal mine or in other words they crawled
into hole, and pulled the hole in after
them. Mr.. McLemoTe, one of our infor-
mants says, was doubtless acting as a
picket guard at an outpost, az he did not
see him again until after all the seized
property had been duly put on the train
| yesterday morning. And this with a
guard of six well armed men Mr.. McLe-
! more and the seized property arrived safe
! ~ IN this city without any further moles'

CHURCH GROVE, July 10Th, 1878.
EDITORS CHRONICLE: Another damag-
ing storm paid us its compliments on last
Wednesday. Corn was broken off, timber
FRUSTRATED and an occasional building I'M
rooted. L learn that barn belonging to
Rev. Lewis Schell was unroofed. 1878 is
certainly the year of storms. In the item
of rail and board timber alone, we have
been heavily damaged. Hundreds of fruit
trees have been destroyed, and the terrible
hurricane of the 9Th instant cut off our oat
crop at least one-half.
Mr.. Levi George has been threshing
wheat in Bull Run Valley, and / learn
that the crop is distressingly short. Out
of eighteen bushels sowed on Squire Bay
less plantation, only forty were Obtained.
One man sowed five bushels and obtained
but three. In addition to this, at least 10
per cent. of the wheat threshed by Mr..
George is rotten. But the almost total fail
ure of their wheat crop has not abated the
ardor of the Bull Runners in the least.
They are as jolly as kittens in cream pot,
and cheerfully declare that they will eat
corn bread and hope for biscuits, pies, &C.,
next year. think our Beaver Creek Val
lev wheat will turn out considerably better
than that of Bull Run but if it does not,
the Beavers will try to be as well contented
as the Bulls dare be. ......
L learn that in Wolf Valley the yield of
wheat will be about five bushels to the one
sown. The Wolves will therefore have the
pleasure of munching q few biscuits Big
and Hickory vallies will do but little, if
any, better than Bull Run. .-
Throughout all that network of vallies,
including Hines, Beaver Creek. Bull Run,
Raccoon, Wolf, Hickory and Big, the pros
pect for corn was never more tlattering.
1t would do you good to travel over those
vallies and view the vast fields of corn re-
sembling in their rich blackness the APP
proach of terrible thunder cloud. A few
| propitious showers, unaccompanied by tor
nadoes, and we will have corn ito lend
