IMPROVED EAGLE COTTON Gins.

Prices Reduced to 81 a Saw.
The great popularity of the EAGLE
COTTON GINS is established from the
well-known fact that they are the most
reliable, strongest and best built Cotton |
Gins ever made The Eagle Cotton Gin |
runs lighter than any other gin, thus
having great advantage for planters
who wish to run by horse power. All
the numerous planters who use the Eagle
Cotton Gin will certify to tic fact that
when their cotton is sent to market 1t
always brings the highest market price,
as no other gin car produce finer or a
better sample of cotton than the Eagle
Cotton Gins. Over seventeen Thousand
of the Eagle Cotton Gins have been
made and sold. During period OF
twenty years the nndersi gncd has had
the agency of the Eagle Cotton Gin in
New Orleans. lie has never had a gin
returned or rejected out of the immense
number sold. Tho saw cylinders Of all
the Eagle Cotton Gins are twelve inches

than most other kinds of Gins, thus Civ

they are more than equal to the fifty

can purchase al Eagle Cotton Gin with

TIE BANKS RESISTING TAXA
TON.

No such daring and formidable monop-
o!y ever essayed to control in its inter
est national legislation as that of the
United States Banking Corporation now
petitioning Congress to relieve them of
taxation. When it is remembered that
these banks pay no taxes at all, State or
national, on the bonds upon WHICH they
drive their business, :! shows an Cnwar-
Tsoted, grasping spirit for them to come
EarWard and ask Congress co relieve them
II the pitiably small tax now in exist
ence. What is the tax now demanded
of them? Cnly eSe PsT cent 81 amount
"a currency circulation AID one-half PEI
cent. on deposits s1cl stock not invested
..2- :. - ~. .hs nnnan ciai crisis & 1873
the profts in the banking business aver
aged not less than from IL to 10 per
cent. At that time they Seaped golden
harvest.
Since 1873 tho average has been from
g to IL per cent, which is at lie, >st double
the profits made in any other bl'siness'
To show how lucrative the present b Snk-
ing system is, it is admitted that ~
means of the enormous capital
invested in il in the last ten gears
amounting to s65O,OOo,OOO, surplus of
SIl8,OO0,00O has been accumulated out
side of the unprecedentedly large dfVi-
dsnds annually declared. In the face Of
such showing it Is an outrage upon the
tax-ridden productive Industries of the
country that the banks should knock as
the doors of Congress and ask to be ex-
empt from the one per cent tax on circu-
lation and the half per cent on deposits.

THE FLORIDA DECISION.

The Commissioners. having under con-
Rideration the point Mt issue in the case
of Florida, Justice Miller moved by reso-
luton that no evidence will be received
or considered which was not submitted
TO the joint convention of the two
Houses by the President of the Senate
with the different certificates.
On this motion vote was taken with
the following result: Yeas-Bradiey,
Edmunds. Frelinghuysen, Garfield, Hoar,
Miller, Morton and Strong Nays-Ab-
bott, Bayard, Clifford Field, Huuton,
Payne and thurman. This decision
has gratifed the Republicans and dis
cOuragod the Democrats 1t seems to be
the prevalent belief that the ultimate de-
oision will be in favor of Hayes and
Wheeler Florida electors, and that the
course in this case will be pursued with
regard to Louisiana, where there are
two alleged ineligible electors and more
than one return.
A prominent Democrat of the com
mission says that the meaning of the
vote of the commission is, that the min
isterial sacts of the State executive Off
GERS are to be respected, but not those of
the judiciary; he added, however, that as
the Democratic certificates embody the
tho proceedings OF the court, they will,
by this decision, be fully opened up for
consideration and argument. The Demo
Gratis also find some satisfaction in the
fact that the rule established by the
commission will lead to the ascertain
ment that Waits, the Republican cleo
tor IN Oregon, was ineligible at the time
of bis election, and hence only two Re
publican electors from that State can be
counted, Cronin, the Democrat, being
the third elector. On this supposition
they think that the Democrats still have
a chance for the Presidency, aud that
the election may be thrown into the
House, where Tilden would be elected,
and that in such an event the chc;e5 Of
Wheeler as Vice President would de-
volye on tbs Senate.

THE CONTESTS OF GIANTS.

Lawyer Evarts and Lawyer oConnor
respectively represented the two great
parties of the country before the eleetor-
al commission in the case of Florida.
Evaris held that the Republican cetti6-
cate from Florida was itself conclusive
evidence in faver of the elector therein
named; while O'Connor held that it was
necessary to prove the validity of the
certificates and the title of the electors
These positions were ably and adroitly
handled by the eminent men, and the
Commissioners decided IN favor Of
Evarts' position by q majority of one
vote. 1t is generally believed that the
election after all, may be finally throwE
into Congress.

The Feeling in Was6ington.

There is an intensity of feeling in the
ESational which rivals that which op-
pressed the public mind during the frst
few days alter the November election.
It is not exhibited in the demouesrasiVe
way IN which partisans then gave vent
to their emotions, their hopes and fears,
but the feeling is deeper from the fact
that it is constrained Both sides claim
to be confident that the decision of the
conn ission on the preliminary question
raised in the Florida case, upon which
argument closed this afternoon, will be
IN their favor but it is mere pretence
Neither side has the least foundation 10
fact on which 60 base their claims, This
decis on will not turn upon the vote of
any one member of the commission, for
there are two justices Of the Supreme
Court upon il usually cla5sed as Repub-
lioans who will be unbiased by p0iiti-
col considerations. | do not mean that
there are not two ether Justices who viii
he i'm partial, but Fi2ply that Mr.. Justice
Strong and Dir. JUS ioe Bradley, who are
claimed by Republicans because their
sympathies are supposed to be with thai
side, will not be infue need By partisan
motive, neither do claim that they will
certainly hold with the Democratic view
of the case on which they are to pass
but simply that they will iaterpret the
law as they understand it. 70 other
words, there are two unknown quantities
in the problem, and therefore the uDcer
tainties are proportionsteiy increased
This fact naturally in5ensifiss the sUs
pense of both sides, and consequently
the public mind is Ia feverish, irritable
! condition, which forebodes trouble if the
| judgment of the Electoral Commission
/ happens to be very unsatisfactory to enc
side or the other That there is pur
pose on the part of the Republican
| leaders to prolong indefinitely the Goa
test If the commission decides that tbs
face of the Hayes returns are not con
elusive, do not doubt. If the judg
msnts of the tribunal are unfayorable T.
the Democrats. it is probable that the
will also seek by some sort Of tactics t
get things in a shape where the Hous
can decide that there has been no cleo
ton, and then proceed to elect Mr.. Ii
den.
