the various Collection Districts which
have recently undergone thorough III
spectIon by competent Revenue Agents.
The districts 80 tar examined have Deen
found to be In most excellent conditlon,
and managed on thorough business prin-
ciples. The report will show that the
taxes are being objected in all parts OF
the country in most satisfactory mar
ner, excepting certain portions OF the
Southern States and few Isolated
points in the North where illicit distll'
lation is carried on. Measures nave,
however, been taken during the past
few months which, it is believed, will
result in completely breaking up this

has been less detalcation among ON

WHO WILL BE CIRCUIT JUDGE!
WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.-J uhn Baxter,
Of Knoxville, Tenn, has been gazelted
for the vacant Circuit Court Judgeshtp,
but his name mas not be en- sent in to the
Senate. He is strongly opposed by the
Tennessee Senator'S, and IT nominated
will be very apt to be rejected. 1t seems
that the President took fancy to Bax-
ter during his visit TO Knoxville. He Is
objected to as prejudiced and arbitrary.
The other candidates are Edward Bax-
ter, OF Nashville; VIM. +. Cooper, OF
Nashville, and Judge Cooley, OF Michi-
gan.
THE HOUSE COMMITTEES.
Little additional has transpired in
regard to the House Committees. 1t is
deemed certain that the Committee on
the Pacific Railroad will contain ma.
jority disposed to give the measure a
considera ton. Mr.. House, Of Tennes-
see, who is one OF the ablest and most
influential members of the body, will be
made Chairman. In regard to the Ways
and Means Committee there is great I'M
certainty. The protest against Fernan.
do Woods appointment by the revenue
tariff men is very strong, and may be
needed. Tucker, of Virginia, is much
spoken OF for this position.
THE GEORGIA MARsHALsHIP.
The long struggle over the Georgia
Marshalship is reported to have ter.
minated In the appointment of o. p.
Fi'zsimmons, Of Augusta. Mr.. Fitzsim-
mons was backed up by Mr.. A. II. Ste.
phens, who is quite elated at his tri.
umph.

erty, are at the mercy OF mob
in times OF disorder. He insists that
the country ought always to have on
hand half million OF improved arms,
and submits estimates for the manuiac-
ture of ii ty thousand arms per annum.

ton for arming the militia from 5000. 900

From tie Chicago Inter ocean
WE ARE RECoNCILED.

Our heart is filled with gratitude. We
are tranquil. The wild and boisterous
passions engendered by our great civil
strife have subsidized, and in their stead
there reigns holy balm.
Yesterday it was not so. Rude passion
swayed US, and we grasped our scimetars
with deadly intend. To-day olive twigs
adorn our hat, and olive oil floats greasily
on the surface of our cup of peace,
We have taken one more step in the
highway of cancellation. We have conce
ded another point 1t beats all how good
it makes a man feel to give himself away
in this great cause aud in this unseIfsh
manner.
No sincere advocate of reconciliation eau
have failed to notice that our southern poll
cy has lacked one essential element of sue
cess. Up to yesterday the army and navy
had not been employed to wait upon and
afford amusement to our White League
and Kuklux brethren Of the south. This
was a constant thorn il the flesh TO these
generous and chivalrous people. How
could it be expected that they would feel
toward US that respect and friendship so
desirable when this proof of our gratitude
was withheld? 1t could not be, and so we
chronicle with a sort of wild exultation tie
fact that the last bar to enthusiastic love
has been let down, and that the two sec
ton are now clasped in u pessional EN- bra
Ce.

Hand Book OF Finance.

We are indebted 10 Messrs. s. G.
Griggs Il Co, publishers, Of Chicago, for
copy Of their work, recently issued,
called "Gold aud Debt" an American
hand book Of finance, containing over so
tables and diagrams illustrative Of the
following subjects: The dollar and other
units; paper money in the United States
and Europe; gold and silver in the United
States and Europe suspension Of specie
payments the era Of gold; values OF the
precious metals; the cru Of debt; the rise
and fall of prices; also digest Of the
monetary lava Of the United States.
The author Of this interesting and use.
iul work is Mr.. W. l.. Fawcett. His
object is TO embrace in a compact form
Trustworthy figures and authoritative
statements in regard 10 the great factors in
the financial problems Of thcd day, viz: the
fluctuations in the volume Of paper money
in The United Staiea and Europe during the
last fifty years; the annual production,
and annual consumption Of gold and sill.
Ter in the arts since the beginning Of the
era Of gold in 1910; the addition to the
worlds stock Of gold and silver used as
money, and the amounts Of each now in
use in each Of the countries Of Europe
and North America,
In the Digest Of Monetary Lars Of the
United States, the authors object is to
state in the language Of the laws them.
selvea the nature Of the contract between
the government as y borrower and the
note and bondhoders as creditors.
Mr.. FNwcett claims to have discovered
nae application Of The lac Of proportions,
in the proportions OF national revenue in
each country to the amount OF money in
use. With the aid Of this rule and the
= official statistics Of the amount Of paper
money in each country, he arrives ap.
proximately at The amount Of gold and Of
a'rcr IN use in each country in the rorld.
The consumption of gold in the arts
has always been n point on which the
notions of even the most prominent
writer's on finance have been very vague.
Mr. FawCett employs great variety OF
statistics TO prove that the consumption
OF gold in the arts, and by loss and wear,
is now greater than the annual produc.
ton, and that consequently the worlds
stock OF gold is diminishing.
In the "era Of gold' from 1919 TO about
1862, the rise of prices" is attributed by
Mr.. Fawcctt to the depreciation OF gold,
and in the "cra Of debt" a greater rise, to
four great wars, of which the chief was
the civil war in the United States.
The present financial depression
throughout the world, he attributes to the
increasing demand for metallic circula.
ting medium to make exchanges, pay in
tGrest on debts, and redeem paper money.
These demands have increased the value
Of the precious metals and caused the de-
cline in the values Of commodities.
