GREAT DECREASE IN REVENUE, OWING TO THE
INTERFERENCEs OF CONGRESS.
LBY TELEGRAPH TO THR TRTBUSEl
WASHINGTON June 13.-A table has been pre-
pared in the office of the Commissioner of Internal
Revenue which shows that the receipts from inter
nal revenue taxes for the present year will be $40,
000, 900 less than they were estimated at The
aggregate receipts for the year mp TO date are
$1O5, 100000. The amount estimated for the year
was $12OO0O,OOO. Commissioner Raum, in speak
ing on that subject said today, that letters
received from the various collection districts in
dictate that the decline in the receipts is not
owing to the stagnaton Of business, as there are
indications of general revival of trade; but
it is entirely the result of the agitation in
Congress over the reduction of the tax
on whiskey AID tobacco, and the extension
of the time for the payment of the tax on bonded
whiskey. He says that during the last thirty days
there has been absolute prOstIatl0n IN these
branches of industry, and II the blll now pen9ng III
the House should pass without provision for re-
funding the cents tax ON manufactured tobacco
which has been paid at the present rate, II would
affect no less than $50 600 dealers aud impose upon
them an aggregate loss OF more than T3,OUo,OOO.
il Is said at the Treasury Department that the pro-
posed reduction of the tax on tobacco VIII reduce
the receipts from that source about Fl2,OOO,OOO.
A general press dispatch says that a delegation Of
about 100 Virginians has arrived from Richmond
headed by General Joseph J.. Johnston. 1t repre-
sents not only the manufacturers but also the plant
ers and the laborers The delegation has visited the
committee and representative men Of both Houses
and upon its departure viii leave strong commit
tee behind to advance its views. While favoring
reduction of the tax TO 1G cents, these gentle
men insist upon some action by Congress. They
represent that by the reduction of the tax TO 10
cents. the Government will lose three millions dur
ing the present year. but that BY inactiOn revenue
of ten millions will be held allegiance on account
of tobacco held from consumption IN private hands,
and that the laborcr, planter and manufacturer

The c. C. Club Hop.

Last Friday evening our town was electri-
fed by the brilliance and elegance of the
entertainment given by the young ladies of
the &C. c. Club" at the hospitable residence
of Mrs Ann Fentress. The grounds were
beautifully illuminated, the entrance, recep-
ton rooms and dining hall extensively and
tastefully garnished with appropriate de-
signs and notices. A committee of reccp-
ton was appointed by the club to meet
the invited guests at the door. Notwith-
standing the inclcmency of the weather the
rooms were well filled with the elite of Boil
ivar.
1t would require more space and time
than we can command to enumerate and
describe the elaborate and elegant costumes
of all present. The inexperience of an old
bachelor in ofaires de toilette must be par

Among the first to be mentioned-Miss

ly becoming, making the effect very striking.
The Misses Upshaw dressed alike in
white, with the contrasting colors, blue and
pink, which became well their "fair English

and elegance, wore pearl white silk and
tarletan.
Miss Sallie Unthank, in green silk and
velvet, looked indeed quite distingue
Miss Fannie Jones wore blue silk with
an overdress OF sheer white organdie trim
med with lace of a beautiful pattern. She
looked every inch queen-of hearts.
Miss Lizzie Williams in Nile green silk
and white carleton, presented at once chaste
and elegant appearance.

tarletan with cameo garnishments, which
became her regal beauty well.

EDITORS BULLETIN Thinking perhaps
that few lines from these (so-called) low
glounds of sorrow would be of some interest
to the readers of your most excellent paper
we now commence the task. Times here
are hourishing; plenty OF pork and corn for
our people, and some to spare to those who
may choose 10 cast their lots with us. Germ
and cotton yielded more than was anticipa-
ted in the first OF the fall. Owing to bad
weather our farmers have not sowed as
much wheat as they should have done, yet
some are still sowing, thinking late an it is
that they will be rewarded for their labor
by yield Of from 10 10 10 bushels per acre.
Our soil is well adapted to the growth of
any kind of vegetables grown in the South
except sweet potatoes, which grow to good
size, but not as large as those raised in the
fair village of Sculieton and vicinity.
The weather has been fine for the last ten
days. Cotton nearly all gathered and much
of it sold at very fair price. Our leading
cotton markets in this county are DevalPs
Bluff and Des Are The Bluff is stu ated on
White river and the Memphis & Little
Rock Railroad, and Dcs Arc on White
river. The latter place ships from 100 to
200 bales of cotton every week. We have
fine lands here, which are very cheap, ac-
cording to quality, but will not remain so a
great while. As it is fast being settled up
by emigrants from the older States, of
course the value will be enhanced.
As to Ourself, We dearly love the name of
old Hardeman and its many good people,
and would be glad TO meet our old associates
about Granville once more. We have a
good old uncle there, e. II. W. If We
could only see him this evening our heart
would leap for JOY; though circumstances
forbid, as our lot has been cast among the
"Arkansaw hocsiers," and we expect TO
make this our home. RAGGED EDGE.

Uuder the Holly,

Christmas eve at the Presbyterian Church
was a time for old, hearty and young to be
happy Suspended from boughs Of beau
tiful tree were presents to please from the
little one laughing in it's crib, to the old
ones gazing cross the river to the never end
ing Christmas of love beyond the waves of
time. Young eyes were brilliant and bright,
old hearts were happy and light, while
charsty, life's precious queen queened it
over all Every seat was filled, and the
cheerful order observed, manifested the
character and intelligence of the audience.
Rev. Mr.. n. X. Smith, and Rev. Mr.. Coch-
ran, handed the gifts from the tree into the
hands of John Hardy, T. d. Hardy, George
Adams and David Parran, who distribu-
ted them in graceful and becoming man
ner. Our reporter took note of the fortu-
nate recipients but will not give names for
fear OF executing the envy of the less favor
ed. Ono young lady, however, Miss L. c,
seemed to be "Santa's" favorite, she recoiv-

The GAINESVILLE and Tibet Debating So
cietics met at Porter's Creek Church, accord
ing to previous appointment, ON the 18th
of Dec 1877, and after consultation we
agreed to discuss the Free School Law OF
Tennessee" as it now is.
The GAINESVILLE Society cffirming that it
is injurious to the community at large.
Milo Scott, Esq, was appointed chairman,
w. E Afford and Sanford McCarter judges,
and Julius Crawford secretary.
J. NJ Mitchell opened on the affirmation
making many points in opposition, the prin-
pie ones of which were: That on the intro
duction of the Civil Rights Bill in Congress
Mr. Brownlow said if it passed it would de
stroy the free school system Of the State of
Tennessee; that the expenses of the system
arc too great in paying salaried officers
that in paying school taxes the white citi-
Gems of the State pay to educate the negro,
when that same education makes him 4
greater rascal.
Rev. W. L. Thompson, in defence of the
system, producing many points showing it,
/ benefits. He said that the law is a coed
one to disseminate knowledge, and that il
/ is altogether necessary To have salaried ofh-
GERS to execute the system.
Mr.. l. s. Simpson showed that the law i,
+ imperfect from tn fact that the same teach
/ ers going before different County Supcrir-
+ tendonts obtain certificates of various
grades, inferior teachers receiving eertif-
Gates OF higher grade than others more com
/ petent.
Ed. D. D. Foster said that the Gran, g.
Vile Society opposed the dissemination Of
education. He said that every one should
be taxed 10 extend the free school 10 at least
six months in each year, and that parent,
should be forced to send their children tt
school.
Cullen Strickland stated that he was il
favor Of free school law, but he wanted
the best system that could be found Tax
off all the unnecessary expenses attaches i.
the execution of the present system, and J,
1t be used in educating the children.
