SUPREME COURT.
TAX TITLES,

WAsH1NGT IN, Jan. 20.-Decision No. 1O2, J..
De Treville plaintiff, in error, vs. Robt. Smalls
in error to the circuit court of the United
States, for suit to recover possession of GER
tain tract of land in the town of Beaufort, s.
c., sold for taxes during the late war by United
States commissioners, under the act of Con-
gress for collection of taxes in insurrectionary
districts. passed March 16, 1868. The case was
brought here upon a writ of error
to test the validity of the so-called
tax sale titles, by virtue of which more
than half the land in Beaufort county, South
Carolina, is now held. It is main tanned by the
former owners of the lands in controversy that
the act of Congress levying tax and imposing
penalty Of 70 per cent upon delinquents is in
violation of the second section of the first
article of the constitution, that the proceed
ings Of the commissioners prior to sale were ir-
regular, and that the certificates given by them
title. This court, however, sustains the judg-
holding that the act of Congress
in question is not unconstitutional,
that the tax sale certificates are themselves
presumptive evidence Of all antecedent facts
essential to their validity, and that they can be
overthrown only by showing that the property
which the secretary conveyed was not subjected
to tax, that the taxes upon it had been paid
previous to the sale, or that it had been re-
deemed. In the present case no evidence is
offered sufficient to rebuff the presumptive reg
ularity and validity of the tax sale certificates
and the Judgment of the circuit court is there
fore affirmed. This decision, it is stated, will
quiet title to more than 1900 pieces of prop
erty in South Carolina.

known. Weather clear and pleasant.
WHEELING, w. Va, JAN. 20.-The ice gorge
here broke at 9 o'clock this morning. and the
river has been running full OF floating ice ever
since. The steamer Nail City forced on
top of the shore ice, and had her wheal badly
broken, and was badly twisted up. The Annie
Kelly had hole about sixty feet long stove
in her side, and every effort is now being made
to save her from sinking. Two barges one
loaded with slaves and the other empty, both
belonging to John W. Armstrong & Co., were
swept away with the food. No other damage
thus far has been reported. Capt. LISTS new
boat. lying just above the mouth of the creek
is still safe and sound. The Roger Hornbrook
and Andes escaped without a scratch.
WHEELING, w. Va, Jan. 20.-In addition to
the losses given in the afternoon dispatch, the
West Wheeling ferry boat, owned by Andrew
Wolf, was cut down and sunk by the ice. She
| is lying on her side, with her smoke stack still
in sight. Several barges belonging to the
houston Tow Boat com pany were also carried
! away. The river is now running full of gorge
ice, and the water is falling slowly.

CHICAGO, Jan. 20.-Lieutenant-General Sher-
idan is in receipt of the following letter from
Gen. Sherman, under date of Washington,
Jan. II:
GENERAL: I have for the first time had to-
day referred to me the communication of the
honorable secretary of the interior, MIR. Schurz,
of Jan. 6, with enclosures with an endorsement
from the war department., mo action and
accordingly do not send it to you. This COM
munication was published in New York and
Washington about the day of it's date and has
doubtless been seen by you, and I make this
explanation that you may not ex-
specially ask for it. My own Judgment is that
your answer to former communication by the
honorable secretary Of the interior, was all
sufficient and perfectly satisfactory to me,
to whom it was addressed and to the secretary
Of war, to whom referred it. That Mr.. Schurz'
rejoinder addressed to the public and is
in manner calculated to reconcile conflict
ing opinions or to improve the consideration
of the Indians, OF make the instrumentalitv of
the army in Indian management more harmo-
NOUS and effective. For these reasons infer
from a conversation with the Honorable Secre-
tary of War, Mr.. Crazy, that his opinion is lin
which fully coincide) that the controversy, as
such, should end, and therefore shall instruct
the adjutant general to place this communica-
ton of the honorable secretary of the interior
on file

topic in the Fourth ward of this city. As the
scene of this realistic drama was sat score of

full to the brim. And it was, but it was not
the will of fate that it should so remain. Pro-
baby prompted by pure cussedness, an unnat-
ural brother set about breaking the engage
ment, and only to soon succeeded in his pur-
pose. The sorrow-stricken young girl returned,
though on the eve of honors that had cost
several years hard labor. Her lover left home
and friends for the far west, not to return. A
short time after the girls parents died, and the
large estate was divided between the SURVIVING
children. Taking her share, nearly 800 600

hood. She came to Milwaukee, and has since
lived most isolated life, not admitting any,

delicious words of love, became thoroughly
crusted over and suspicious of mankind. Re-
