MARSHAL HENRY

Among the removals made by the
President last Saturday, of govern
ment officials who are charged with
aiding the Star Route conspirators,
that of Capt. G. E. Henry, Marshal
of the District of Columbia, will att
tract the greatest interest. He was
a captain in sGar6eld's regiment
during the late war, and an intimate
personal friend of the late President.
He was appointed marshal by Gar
field, and it was among the few pure
ly personal appointments he made.
He was a faithful watcher at the
White House during the long Attic
ton of his late comrade, and when
Garfeld's remains lay in the rotunda
of the national Capitol, it was
pathetic sight to see Captain
Henry, late at night, when he
thought himself unobserved, kneel-
ing beside the dead Presidents cof-
fin, sobbing like child. A WASH
ington special to the New York
Tribune says of the circumstances
which led to his rem val:
The chief fault whicG has laid him
open to removal seems to have grown
out of the impulsiveness of his ma
ture. When the panel of jurors was
exhausted at the beginning Of the
Star Route trial he summoned tales
men without, it is charged, taking
sufficient care to discover that they
We're proper persons. Two of them
We're universally believed then, and
for long time after, to be in sym
pathy with the defendants. Under
| this impression Colonel Bliss allowed
some expressions of censure of the
marshal's action to go out, and these
were answered by Captain Henry in
a newspaper interview published in
the West. which he has never pub
licly disavowed. In this interview
he expressed a very unfavorable
opinion of Colonel -.s, Bliss
and declared that the gov>
eminent had no case. Con,
sidering that Col. Bliss was the rep
resentative of the Government be
| fore the court. and that Captain
Henry was an officer of the court
this was an act of INSTRUMENTATION, te
say the least, and no enc here seems
able to justify it. The nat,1ra
effect of it,--the jury being allowed
to read the neWspapers-would b.
to diseredit both the counsel and til,
case in their eyes It turned out
curiously enough, that the two tales

REPEAL THE INTERNAL LAWS.

The Philadelphia American calls
upon Congress to repeal the whole
of the internal revenue system and
gives the following reasons:
The expectation that the war taxes
will now be repealed is general The
excessive collection of revenues has
been so serious and SO manifest a
source of evil that the defenders of
the internal revenue system have
become comparatively few. But
there is a feeling, and one that is en-
tirely natural and reasonable, that
while, by any authority, national or
State, any taxation is laid upon the
people, there can be no more approx
pirate object of tax than the manu-
facture of liquor. If the revenues
are excessive, it is felt that other
things should be released, rather
than this. Responding to such
a public opinion, it is at once
evident that revenue from this source
can only be c. llected by the United
0Ldt06 Il hC oGuUCo GGCIASO1fOc C1AS
not do it; for one to lay such tax,
while its neighbor did not, would be
to send over into tie latter's territo>
lry the business of manufacturing,
while the former would have no
manufacture and no revenue. The
whole question, therefore, reduces
itself to very small compass; the
need for the internal revenue taxae
/ ton being substantially ended, on
the part of the general government,
it should now cease; but, by the
establishment of new and appro-
pirate system, that part of it which
refers to the production of liquors
should be E,aintained for the relief
of the people from their present
burdens of State taxation, maintain
ing at once the credit of the States,
and the efficiency of their public
I schools.
The Knoxville CHRONICLE takes oc-
casion this early in the contest to res
mark that the people have elected
Gen. Bate to be Governor and not
United States Senator. This, how
ever, is free country, and if the
representative of free Democracy
choose to elect Gov. Bate to the
United States Senate, the CHRONICLE
will have to grin and bear it.-Nash-
vile Banner.
The CHRONICLE has said nothing of
the kind. The election of Gen.
Bate as Governor does not deprive
him of the right to be candidate for
