The French revenue returns for the past
year show that the total yield of the indi-
rect taxes and postal and telegraph servi-
ces, as compared with 1881, have made
a small increase, viz, of 4, 100000 francs.
The indirect taxes. excluding sugar and
wines, show, however, a deficit of :, 300, 600
francs. the chief diminution being under
the item of registration duties, the pro-
duce Of which has fallen off by Il, 200, 900
francs, and the daty on alcohol and beer,
which has yielded 100000 francs less
than in the previous year. The sugar
duties, on the other hand, have yielded
u. 100, 600 francs more, home sugar being
the most fruitful item. The wine duties
have yielded 2,2OO, 1000 francs more than in
1881, and the postal services 2,913,0O0
francs more, The telegraph service, on
the contrary. shows a diminution of l.
$50, 900 francs. The total increase is there
fore next 70 nominal. Still, the year
began well, the first quarterly return
showing an increase of 9,500,00 francs.
With the second return this increase had
only risen to II, 100000 francs, and the
third quarter was worse. The increase
had fallen to 9,OO0, 900 francs, and now the
year 1882 has closed barely in excess of
its Predecessor.

An Error Corrected

In a late issue of the Chattanooga Times
we find the following:
1.-THE last stroke of the mechanic on
beautiful mOgul engine, which has been
building al the Alabama Great Southern
shops for some time, sounded yesterday
morning. and soon qnite tbrong assem-
bled about the splendid machine, admir-
ing its beauty and finish. 1t marked
new era i'm railroad building in the South,
being the first complete engine ever con-
structed south of Louisville. The entire
work. including every bolt, rivet and
casting, vas prQduced in Chattanooga,
the major portion beiRg the work of
the Alabama Great Southern shops
alone"
While we do not desire to detract from
our sister city in its enterprise in the above
direction, we must rise to correct the
statement made of its being the first COM
plete engine ever constructed south of
Louisville. In 1873 there was built at the
shops of the Southwestern Railroad Com
pany, at Columbus, the engine ''Gate
CITY" in service now and known as No.
10. Two other locomotives, the "Musco-
gee' and "Chickasaw." were built in 1882
at the same shops, and are running now
on the road as Nos. 81 and So. The Forest
City, was built at the same shops in
1874. The "W. n, Wadley'i and the
Emerson Foote" were built at the Cen
trail Railroad shops, Savannah, in 1857
and 1859, respectively. In 1860 the
Thomas Purse" was built at the
shops in Savannah, and in 1868 the
Andrew Low" The chatham"
was built at the shops here
in 1870. and the ATLANTA" in 1873.
The New Hampshire was built at the
company's shops in 1874, the "Firetiy' in
1870, ..Vesuvius" in 1876, and the ''SOuth
Carolina in 1877, ''New Jersey" in 1879,
virginia. and pensacola" in 1880,
Henry McAlpin" and 'saYannah' in
1881. and .sRome," the last one turned out
of the shops,in 1882. 1t thus appears that
so far from the locomotive recently turned
out from the shops of the Alabama Great
Southern at Chattanooga being the
first ever constructed south of Louisville,
since 1857 there have been sixteen COM
plete locomotives constructed in the
shops Of the Central Railroad at Sayan-
nah.

of manufacturer to make especially for our
trade large lot of Cigars. AS we had long enjoy
ed the reputation ofselling The Best Cigar in
Town for 5 cents, the conditions of the contract
were that our character should suffer no violence
in this particular, and that this new Cigar should
Surpass in excellence anything we had hitherto
handled. They were to be as good as Il Cigar
could be made to retail with profit for 3 cents.
We were to be the judge of its qualities, and #
not satisfactory, the whole lot was to be returned
at the expense of the shipper. We have 5000 OF

IA The derivation of the word Texas is
involved in a great deal of obscurity. There
are three or four different accounts of how
the word originated, but they are all more
or less improbable. An old Texan impart-
ed to us an entire new legend last week.
The legend is surrounded, so to speak, with
such halo of probability that we think the
mystery is solved at last. Many of the old
settlers of Texas came to this, then unnamed,
region because they had to leave home or
be hung. They loved their former homes,
nevertheless, and were often homesick. On
such occasions, initiating the children of
Israel, they were wont to hang their harps
on mesquite tree, and warble a plaintive
ditty to the effect that
When every land forsakes us,
This is the land that takes us,
From "takes us'' to Texas is all easy flight
of the imagination.-Iera ,SytingS.
