THE NEXT CONGRESS.

The election returns show that the
next House of Representatives will be
Republican by. at sleast five majority.
They gained some members in the So
called ''Solid South" and several in
the Western States. This gives the
Administration control of the appro-
priations and makes it, to great exv
tent, responsible for legislation, what
ever party may be in the ascendancy in
the Senate. But the Republicans also
claim the Senate by majority of one,
or at least tie, which will give the
Vice President, who is ex,oficio Presi-.
dent Of the Senate, the deciding vote
on all political legislation. To insure a
tie, however, it will be necessary for
the Republicans to have a majority on
joint ballot in California, New Jersey
and Tennessee, two of which States.
are now represented by Democrats
whose terms expire on, the 4thaof next
March. They claim a majority in each
of those States, but indications point
TO Democratic majority in California,
which would result in the election OF o
nemocrat to sucaeed Booth and give
the Democrats one majority in the next
Senate, even if Tennessee elects a Re-
publican.
II both Houses are Republican,. the
repeal of the Silver bill may be looked
for at an early day. Then the coinage

will be a legal tender to the amount of
five dollars only; and while the price of
bullion, which is now from fourteen to
eighteen per cent. below its assayed
value, may not be affected, silver coins
viii become, as before the passage of
the Silver bill, drug in the market.

A report on the state Of the Church
read before the Episcopal Convention in
New York, lately, spoke ins severe rep
rotation of some of the means used
to stimulate interests in Its work and
rase the Money it needs. "Theatricals,
dances, suppers. and whatever else will
draw money from the throng who love
excitement and amusement, are pre-
sented as attractions" to secure money.
Such practices, the report goes on to
say, "are destroying public respect of
many teachers Of our. holy religion, and
confidence in the power or Christianity.
To escape the imputation of being Pur-
itanical, they approach, if they do not
enter the realms of worldly conformity,
levity, and Indifference" Deliverances
like these are, often made by, religious
conversations, but they have little prac-
tical effect. Church fairs and church
lamusements go on just the same as ever.
Moreover, the report is wrong in attri-
buting to them the destruction Of public
confidence in the power Of Christianity.

General Forrest, every unpreludiced
student of our country's history will
pronounce il all false. The to
''President Stcal' is 50 vivid in the
minds of the American people as not to
require comment. Congress had the
power To settle the matter, but dele
gated that power Ia the highest tribu-
nal in our land, the majority RcpnbH-
can became impregnated with THAT ac-
cursed doctrine State rights" for the
occasion, although loathing 1t as the
ID does holy water and thus put in
II. B. Hayes.
"That notorious guerrilla" as he puts
il, signifies an irregular predatory par
tisan, fighting, and robbing on "his
own hook" which does not apply TO
Forrest, as lac was Maj. Genl in the
army of the &. =. of America. The ap-
pellation of guerrilla" to him would
equally apply to Sheridan, Grierson,
Stoneman, Wilson, Sturgis, Castor and
Strait, in fact to Sherman and Stone
wall Jackson, each of whom acting by
authority from his Government, had
discretionary power rs To details.
Gen'l FORESTS "idea of war was that
! il meant fighting, and that meant kill
ing" In battles he fought, and victo-
D -.
had no parallel i'm the war. His first
fight was at Sacramento, in this coun-
ty, where he routed the Third Kentucky
Federal Cavalry, in 1861. He cut his
way out at Dnnnelson, did valiant SER
vice at Shilo, pursued and captured
1 Strait, here he said he "fout um all, and
cotch um ALL"
/ On the DIST of February, 1864, with
/ 2,500 men, he put to flight 5000 under
Grierson and Smith, near Oklahoma,
Miss, causing the retreat of Sherman's
"movable column :" who, i'm reporting
/ this cavalry, this master of Billings
gate in the army said, "half went to

At Guntown, on the 18th of June,
1864, with $500, he defeated Sturgis
and Grierson, commanding 10000, cap
turing everything on wheels, 252
wagons, - ambulances, Il pieces of Ar
tillery, killed and captured more men
than he had. At Harrisburg, Miss,
July 10th, same year, with 5000, he de
feated A. j. Smith with $4,000, (the
hardest nut he cracked who returned
again in August, heavily re-enforccd !;
and when near Oxford. Forrest, with
two brigades, fell on his rear, went into
Memphis, causing him to reatreat to
secure his base. He cleared Hoods
front and fianks of cavalry up to Nash
vile, and covered his retreat to the
Tennessee river, and saved his army
/ from capture.
This attack upon the ashes of dead
General. stamps "Pine Apple" as never
having been soldier he may have
been with the wagons, or led lame
horse, but the true soldier forgets the
animosities of the past, while the
bomb-proof, or mere politician who
''smelt the battle afar off," finds his
prejudices, and opens wounds nearly

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher for Grant.

At a meeting of the Lincoln Club of
New York. on Monday evening, Febru-
ary 9th inst, Rev. Henry Ward Beech
er made a speech in behalf of Grant,
from which the following is an extract :
49, The best thing, therefore,
is To re-clect the man found competent
for the Office, and who commands the
respect and confidence of our citizens.
Therefore hold that third term is i'm
order, and may be- wise thing, or even
fourth term loud applausel; and
even then, il YOU want him, if he still
has your confidence, YOU might give
him fifth term. don't know why n
Judge who has sat upon the bench for
seven years should he put aside for
young man and new man, who has
nothing of his experience. ID takes Il
man four years Ia learn how to be
President, and four wears more how to
do il with any considerable degree of
success. If | had the whole vote to
give myself, | should certainly elect
General Grant. | think General Grant
is the most remarkable man that our
age has produced in America, "A man
that is very little understood. He never
cackles, and they think he never lays
an egg; a man who never saws any,
thing which he enwrapt in vapor or
rainbow hues who never allows fancy
to interfere with fast, man who says
what lac says, and says il exactly and
nothing else, and neither turns for
pride nor for love of praise, nor for in
terest, to the right or Ia the left. He is
a fair, square, simple-minded, honest
man, who means business every time
and nothing else, and such man is ap-
propriate chief officer of II great, practi-
cal nation like our own. Loud ap-

this week is, that after the long prOtract-
ed dry weather, we had Il refreshing
shower last Thursday, enough, | think,
to keep the ground moist few days.
4 painful and dangerous accident
happened to a son of Mr.. Charlie Bar
nard, (l3 years old, last Tuesday. He
had cut down tree, and in falling, one
limb struck him on the leg and broke
the tibia bone below the knee, also the
smaller one. Two inches of the larger
bone pushed through the skin and went
two inches into the ground. DIR. w. j.
Berry set the bones, and reports him
doing as well as could he expected.

well and has taken charge of the store
at Taylor Mines again.

Mr. Barrass is the energetic bank boss
at Taylor mines.
We have almost had coal famine
during the muddy weather, roads hav-
ing been too bad to haul coal.
Two car loads of hogs and cattle ship

which left about $40 i'm the neighbor-
hood.

since the earliest ages, two problems
have engaged the attention of specula-
tive humanity: perpetual motion, and
the getting of something for nothing.
The first remains, and is likely to re-
main, unsOlved; but if the evidence of
printers ink is to be trusted, the solu-
tiOn OF the second has been arrived at
by the publishers of Ehrichs' FushiOa
Quarterly. "And how sO?' remarks
the reader, incredulous, Marry thus:
by an ingenious system of cOmbina-
ton subscriptions, the publishers of the
quarterly offer to send their magazine,
free of all charge whatever, to all who
may subscribe, through their agency, to
any of the principal monthly or weekly
periodicals. Thus subscriber to Peter
sons Magazine has only to pay his reg
ular two dollars through Ehrichs' agen-
cy, to receive, not only Peterson's, for a
year, but really valuable quarterly
magazine of fashion as well.
How this is to he done, is explained at
length, in the premium lists to EhrichS'
Fashion QUurteriy, an advance COPY of
which lies upon our table. Nor is this
the only novel feature which this same
premium list contains. Other maga-
zines offer premiums for subscribers; but
the Fashion quarterly not only does
that, but in addition, inaugurates the
novel idea of premiums pithOW sub
scribers. But over this astounding
mystery we drop n discreet veil: and
the reader who may wish to pierce it, is
advised to send his name and address to
Enrich Brothers. Eighth Avenue and
twenty-fourth ST., New York, whose
reply will doubtless resolve his doubts
into pleasing and profitable certainties.

4 Protective Outrage.

Print paper has advanced in the last
few months at least 30 per cent. There
il no cause for this, except the desire on
the part of the paper manufacturers To
make very large profit. They meet
together about once week, and resolve
the advance cent per pound, and have
advanced from up To about l. cents
per pound, and the end is not yet. Ii
WAS expected that with the return of
prosperity TO our country, the increased
demand would give paper small ad-
vance, but who thought of from 80 to
80 per cent? There is no reason why
il should thus advance, and ii has thus
advanced because of an agreement ell
tered into, "A combination formed of all
the paper manufacturers. As the mat
ter now stands, every publisher in the
United States, the whole American
people for the tax is paid by the pco-
ple) are at the mercy of this combina-
ton that has been well shown recently.
If the present high price of paper is
maintained, ii will necessarily cause AN
advance in all classes of newspapers,
periodicals and books; school books
coming in for y share in the advance.
The advance i'm the subscription price
of papers and periodicals, will reduce
their circulation by placing them out OF
the reace of the poorer classes. Some
one has truly said that every cent OF
tariff or tax levied upon paper used Tor
papers, books, periodicals and school
hooks is n tax ON the intelligence of the
people and ought to he abolished. The
perpetuity of ReDulicap form OF Gov
ernment depends upon the intelligence
of the people, and therefore it is IA mat
ter Of National Importance that all du-
~ should be removed from print paper,
and from all articles used i'm its manu-
facture. We call ON our Representa-.
tives in Congress to see that this Il
done. Just in proportion as yOu cheap
en school books, newspapers, periodi'
Gals, &c., just in the same ratio does the
intelligence Of the people grow and
vice versa. All honor to Congressmer
Fort, of Illinois, for the start in this
manner. Will mo-. our Kentucky mem.
hers help to keep the hall rolling, and
not let Congress adjourn until paper il
ON the "free list" Such an act would
meet the approval of the entire voting
population Of this State to-day.
