President Grant, as Is generally

military, and, what is less great, but
more human, a prediction lkewisefor
a good lifelong salary. In connection
with these propensities, a rEmor IS IN
circulation, which has found belief, to
the effect that Grant is going to resign
the Presidency, under the condition
that Vice President Wilson, who will
then become President, shall nominate
him for Field Marshal, an Office 10 be
expressly created by Congress with
this IN view. The position Of Field
Marshal is TO be a life Office, with a

THE Chattanooga Times overhauls the
Bulletin, of this city, for giving Mr..
Gibson credit for the passage Of the
law taxing railroads by which $50, 900
viii be added annually TO the revenues
of the State. While Mr.. Gibson has
managed TO father most Of the i'm.
portant bills enacted into laws, and was
the author Of the original bill to tax
railroads, an amendment was added on
motion Of Mr.. Galloway, Of Fayette,
by which railroads paying i per cent.
on their gross receipts were allowed to
be exempt from any other kind Of taxa
ton for ten years, after which time
they are to surrender all claims to the
exemption of their property from taxa
ton. This amendment totally changed
the bill and was adopted against the
desperate protest OF Mr.. Gibson. I'm
der the bill as originally drawn, the
railroads would never have paid dol
lar until the constitutionality Of the
law had been tested IN the Supreme
Court Of the United States, so that all
the State would have got by it for the
present would have been a lot Of law
suits and no revenue.
