PEACHES MILLS, TENN, April Z.
Mr.. EDITOR Il can't refrain from
a mention, through the medium of your
columns, of our Easter celebration at
Hardwood Church, the principal
feature of which was the address of
Maj. L. L. Henry, our Lecturer. 1
have ever felt proud of our Grange,
consisting, as it does, of some of the
best men in Montgomery county, man.
aged and mastered as it is by the Hon.
r. f. Ferguson, whose name and re-
cord are sufficient to give weight and
worth, responsibility and credit to any
body over which he may preside; but
now | feel particularly proud of
Peacher's Mills Grange, for the ad-
dress which was delivered by Maj.
Henry was such an one as it is seldom
the fortune of this or any other COM
munity to listen to. To attempt to
describe his address, with its intrinsic
worth and its beauty, both of compo-
sition and delivery, would be ridicu-
lous for one of my ability. Suffice it
to say that we all went to Hazlewood
expecting much, and left there with
the conviction that we had never ap-
preciated the abilities of our Lectur-
er by half Statistical and beautiful,
logical and political, taking in the
whole subject, from the incipiency of
this great ground swell to the present
moment of its real and prospective
success, handling the much moot
ed question of monopoly and
protective tariff in the most mastery
but the plainest manner, showing
wherein and whereby the agricultural
portion of the population have been
made the pack horses for ages, and urg-
ing cooperation as our only salvation.
His compliment to the ladies, or L
should say, acOmen, was one which l
have never heard equaled save by DIR.
Munsey. His structures upon the
fashion and extravaganza of the day
should be published in every paper in
the South, and his appeal to the young
men to abstain from dissipation would
have made any body of Northern Cru
saders shout with joy. No irony-but
it was the best temperance lecture |
ever heard.
| do hope that the various Oranges
of the county will insist upon Maj.
Henry delivering his lecture again
for it will bear repeating many times.
In fact | only regret that the whole of
Montgomery county didn't hear it, and
l hope it will be published and distri-
buted throughout the State. Call for
that lecture, Patrons, and my word for
it you will listen to treat, and hope
you will call loud and fast, for already
Mai. Henry is the choice of many to
represent US in the next General As
sembly, and after that speech is heard
| hope he will be the general fivorite
of the county, for his social standing,
family connection, moral and intellec-
tural worth should make him accept
able to every one in the county.

WE wish the Changers could be in
duced to investigate the subject of the
value of birds, as protectors of vege-
tation. Some naturalist has asserted
that, but for these voracious denizens
of the air. even forests would be des-
troyed. If so-and we do not doubt
it-their value, as preservers of
orchards and gardens and field crops,
is inestimable. Yet farmers, who
spend not thought upon the subject,
not only do not try to protect the birds,
but join in the crusade for their des-
truction. There is a law to protect
them, but unless it is sustained by an
enlightened public opinion, it is and
will continue to be, a dead letter. A
little intelligent observation of the
habits of birds and the number of
worms and insects the smallest of
them will destroy in given time, will
satisfy any farmer that he has no bet
ter friends and allies than the little
warblers who make his home cheerful
and ask nothing, in return, but their
protection whilst they aid him in pro-
tecting his fruits and vegetables
against the ravages of destructive in
seets. The wanton cruelty with which
men and boys pursue and kill every
species Of birds, is mOnstrous wrong
against which law and public opinion
should combine until that wrong
ceases to exist. The Changers can put
stop to this iuiquity, because they
own the fields and the woods, from
which the law authorizes them to ex-
clude the murderous sportsman.

Leyies for County Purposes.

To the Hon. County Court Of Mont
gonerg County: We, the Committee
appointed to consider what would be
appropriate levies for county purposes
for 1874, make the following report
The assessed value of property sub
ject to taxation in the county this year
from the reports and estimates of the
assessors, will be about $3.50, 900,
which is about 100000 less than for
1873.
The State tax will of course remain
at 40 cents, and the State School tax
at 10 cents on the 800. In these two
items there will be a decrease in the
aggregate tax levied upon the people
of the county of 30 cents on the 500
on 100000, which will amount to
$1,000. ~
The levies made by the county for
1873, we're: railroad tax, 30 cents on
the 800; jail tax, 5 cents on the 800 ;
county school tax. q cents on the 500;
county revenue, Is cents on the 500
Should the railroad tax remain at 30
cents, there will be an actual decrease
in the gross amount of the levy of
s1,700 from last year, which would
make the levy for 1874, barely suffi-
cient with close collections, to cover
the Interest for this year. But the
outstanding debt in coupons has been
reduced in the last six months, from
over 81, 900 to about s. 600, and with
the aid of the sinking fund, we think
the remaining part of the debt will be
liquidated, and the railroad tax may
stand for the present year as it is, with
1t injury to the holders of our bonds.
Tie Jail tax, we think, may be al
together dispensed with this year..
Last year this tax amounted to 1850.
In the interest of public schools, We
recommend that the county levy for
that purpose be increased to 5 cents
on the 800, which would raise that
levy to $3.50 against 81 AS last year,
an increase to the taxpayers, in the
aggregate of 81 ,225.
The county levy last year was 10
cents on the 500, which amounted in
the aggregate to $3.50, or after de-
Quoting for commissions and releases,
to little more than 1000, while the
current expenses Of the year were over
$4,000.
The outstanding debt in warrants is
about $4,000. We are of the opinion
that no measure would give such relief

THE Olarksville District Tobacco
Council, met in Franklin Hall, on
Tuesday last, and was largely attended,
fifty Oranges being represented, of
which Kentucky furnished a Liberal
quota. We learn, with pleasure, that
the spirit of harmony was manifest in
everything said and done, and unity Of
purpose and action. the motto of the
Order. Without these essentials, the
grand reform contemplated by the
Changers, can not be success-with
them, nothing, outside, can retard the
progress of the glorious reform of
which they are the founders and Pa
irons"
Mr.. J. o. Griffith, of the Rural
Sun. addressed the Council in an i'm
pressive manner, and his words of
practical wisdom made a good and
lasting Impression upon those whose
hearts are in the movement, and whose
minds are in search of wholesome
truths by which to shape their future
course. Mr.. Griffith is an earnest and
able advocate of the cause. which
would be greatly advanced if he could
be heard by every Grange in the coun-
try. Col. james Mckenzie, of Chris
tan county, KY, though taken by sur
prise, responded to call, and enter
tanned the audience, for a short time
in his own felicitous vim of oratory-
after which the Council proceeded te
business, the details of which will b.
found in the published report.

CHEATHAMCOUNTY DECLARESFOR
COL. HOUSE FOR CONGRESS.

At "a meeting of the people of Cheat
ham county, held at the Court House
in Ashland City, on the LIST Monday in
April, 1874, S. d. Power, Esq. was
called to the chair and G. w. McQuary

meeting was explained by the chair
man, when on motion, j. N. Ogburn
G. w. McQuary and DIR. T. w. Will
liams were appointed committee to
draft resolutions expressive of the
sense of the meeting.
The committee retired, and after a
brief absence returned and reported
the following resolutions, which were
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That in view of the wide
spread corruption now pervading al
most every department of the govern
ment, it behooves us as people to look
we'll to the antecedents Of the man for
whom we would cast our suffrage, as
our representative in Congress.
Resolved further, That in the person
of the Hon. Jno. f. House, of Clarks.
vile, we recognize man, on account
of his ability, his high moral worth
his unblemished record in every posi-
ton in which he has been tried, and
above all his incorruptble integrity, al
pre- eminently worthy of our confidence
and support, and therefore, we conf.
IDENTIFY recommend him to the othe,
counties of the District, as our frs
choice for Representative in the mex
Congress of the Unite iStates, and il
every respect worthy OF their support

IS Giles and Rutherford counties
steps are being taken, not only to
secure nominations of candidates, for
county offices, but looking, at the
same time. to the best means for secur-
ing harmony, and Concentrating the
vote of the opposition upon the candi
dates selected. One of the plans sug-
gested for the purpose of securing the
above ends, is a convention in each
county. and pledges from all concern
ed. TO give an united support to the
nominees of said convention. 1t may
beurged, on the other hand, that, whilst
such plan was successful, in other
days. in the present demoralized con-
dition of political parties, wherever
there is a convention, there will be
boilers. and that said boilers will be
assured of the Radical vote, wherever
that party is not strong enough to elect
n ticket of its own. This vote-no
small power in most Of the counties of
the State-makes bolter formidable
competitor of the regular nominee,
besides creating n damaging schism in
the party he betrays. Whilst we be
lieve that the convention system is the
best. yet devised, for securing the uni
ty and success of parties, we are no
less satisfied that, under certain con-
tingencies, a convention may be the
forerunner of defeat. This was ex
emplfied in the last State elections, to
the modification of every patriot, and
it may be that the causes in operation,
at that time, in the State at large, will
produce the same effect in individual
counties, where disaffected ambition is
ready to profit by the same circum-
stances.

to the people, as the placing of county
warrants at par by providing means
for their payment al soon as issued.
Holders of these warrants are now
compelled to discount them Is or 20
per cent, and the county herself has
to discount the warrants issued upon
Poor-house appropriations, etc. IN the
same way, so that the evil is felt by
the whole community of taxpayers,
who have first to sell their paper at
80 or IS cents, and then take it back
themselves at par. We would there
fore urge that the attention of the
court be turned to the matter OF
county warrants, and recommend that
the levies, for 1874, be as follows:
Railroad tax, 35 cents on the 500
county school tax, Scents on the 800
county revenue. 30 cents on the 800
and rates on privileges same as last
year with this addition; that the same
tax levied on suits for State, be levied
for county purposes. This will make
the tax nominally higher, but the ag.
gregate amount levied upon the people
of the county, will be only about s64,.
900, against $4,000 last year, and We
think the people can stand this Sigh
increase. as they themselves will de
rive the immediate benefit.
Respectfully submitted,

IN a recent prosecution in New
York, for a violation of the Sunday
Liquor Law, the Judge charged that
the jury should fully satisfy itself
whether or not the article sold was
whisky. In accordance with the
charge, the jury returned a verdict
rot guilty. Should the revenue
officials be limited to the same rule
required to satisfy themselves that the
liquid they tax is whisky, there would
be heavy falling off in the revenue
derived from distilleries.

IT seems that the planters of the
South are learning the simple, but
valuable truth, that no country can be
permanently prosperous, which is not
self-sustaining. All cotton and no
bread. is theory whichfgures may be
made to sustain, but when reduced to
practice, its ruiuoas results are becom-
ing apparent to the most thoughtless.
The theory is, therefore, being repudi-
ated, and the wiser policy-enough
meat and bread first, then cotton, as
much as can be conveniently produced.

If WE seem to dwell, at too great
length, on the subject of the best mode
of selecting candidates, for county and
State offices, we have no better apology
to offer than the deep interest we
feel in the honest and economical ad-
ministration of the peoples govern
ment. After weighing all the plans
that have been offered, we see no other
solution ofthe problem, so far at least
as regards county officers, but the ex-
ercise, by the voters, of their right to
choose their own agents. If it is their
intention to get rid of middlemen in
politics, as well as trade, they must do
so by the same means-organization
Without banding together, as in
Oranges, they fall as far short of har-
mony, in spirit and action, as if they
had no interests in common, and nc
common purpose to subserve. To
bring about any such desirable reforms
as those contemplated by the Changers,
they must begin the work by selecting
honest and competent agents for every
department ofthe government, whether
State or federal.

THE call made upon our friend, 7.

Mills Grange lecture, in this place, is
universally endorsed. We are satisfied
that he did ample justice to himself
and the subject, for such is the testi-
mony of those who heard him, and our
knowledge of the man, morally and
intellectually, authorizes us to accept
the public verdict as a righteous one,
and merlted tribute to talent.
