is told of him: During the war, while
in command Of a division Of Confed-
crates, he had the misfortune to be
wounded, but not seriously. An ac-
quaintance about to visit Richmond,
was requested to call upon the gener-
ais wife, for the purpose of relieving
any anxiety she might feel by explain
ing the nature and extent Of the
wound. Colonel - called at the
lady's house, and, as the report goes,
found her in tears, she having already
received the news of her husband
injury by telegraph. The officer at
tempted to reassure her, by saying the
general would be on duty again in a
few days, but without avail.

you ought not to give yourself so
much concern. He received only a
flesh wound; no bones were injured"
"Ah, Colonel, she sobbed, YOU
don't know th-the general as well as
IL do, or you wouldn't tell Nine
he could be-be wounded without

Joubert has shown at Laing's Mex
and Spitzhop how we'll those noun
tains are defended. If their troops
could have landed at Lorenzo Mar
quez they could have marched
directly into the heart Of the country
and speedily crushed it out
opposition. With possible foresight
of the day when the Beers would
strike for their independence, Mr..
Gladstone's cabinet made overtures to
the Portuguese liberals, who had
overturned the ministry Of Senior
Fontes de Mello, and a treaty was
drawn up by which Great Britain was
to be granted immunity from dues on
all goods in transit from the port of
Lorenzo Marquee and to be allowed to
embark and disembark 1T that harbor
all troops, stores and munitions of
war. This was termed a treaty for
the development of commerce in south
Africa and the more etfectual putting
down of the slave trade" When the
Beers declared war the Portuguese
began to understand against whom it
was directed. The conservatives raised
a clamor in the chamber and the peo-
pie caught it up in the streets. There
was a general feeling that they had
been duped into helping the oppressor
against the oppressed, and our cores
pendent is of opinion that the cabinet
will be wrecked in the storm of popu-
lar indignation.

TENNESSEE GUDGEOEs BITING AT THE
NAKED HOOK.

The high credit democrats elected
to the legislature made their canvass
upon a platform, according to the
leading papers Of the state, which de-
clared against making coupons receiv-
able for taxes. Not a single democrat,
whether high tax or low tax, and not
even a republican that we ever heard
of, proposed to make coupons a legal
tender for taxes. If there is anything
in pledges, in consistency and in good
faith, then this outrageous proposition
cannot become a law. IF democrats
have determined to give the state
away we hope enough republicans
may be found to defeat the out.
rage sought to be perpetrated.
This is not a question of politics or
parties. The debt is not to be paid by
any one party, but by all the people.
The humblest laborer will have to pay
his percentage even though he knows
it not and has no tax receipt to show
for it. The capital and labor, the
muscle and enterprise of the people
must pay it at last. We believe
from all the facts that have come to
our knowledge and from all the evil
dence we can gather that a large ma
jority of the people would agree to a
settlement On a basis of 80 and 4. This
was defeated once, when only a light
vote was cast. But the public mind
seems to have been settling down upon
this proposition as something like a
compromise between extreme views
something practicable and reasonable.
The republican counties generally
were carried for this measure, and the
democratic counties against it, which
refutes the oft-repeated assertion that
the republicans would oppose any set
Element proposed by a democratic leg
isiature merely for a party purpose.
Some Of the leaders might do this, but
the voters have a better record. At.
90 and 4 the interest would be about
100000 per annum possibly a little
less. This, although a heavy burden
to assume, could doubtless be car.
ried until times were better and
arrangements could be made to
reduce the principal. We would
oppose the coupon feature under any
settlement, even at one per cent, for
this is a surrender of a right and a
principle older than the state itself.
Any settlement made above so and 4,
or which recognizes coupons in the
way proposed, is likely to be heartily
condemned and to be repudiated as
far as in the power Of the people to do
so. When the b6,-dholders made the
proposition Of l00 and Bit was evident.

around if this folly and piece of injus
