Correspondence OF the Gazette.
Montague, February 19.-Hen-
ry Manly veteran of the war
of 1872 was buried at this place on yes
terday, having died at the poor-house
in this place on the night before, aged
80 years eight months and seventeen
days. He leaves the wife of his youth
who is now about 30 years old. The
venerable widow mt the funeral ex-
pressed great regret that she was not
also corpse to be inferred with the
man who had for nearly century
been her idol and protector.
Although the old soldier was q pen
sioner on the government, yet for the
last five years he and his wife have
been inmates of our county poor-house,
to which they had to resort after the
old man had bravely sustained himself
and wife until he was about 95 years
old, by fruit of his own labor This
was caused by an accident in having
their house blown down upon their
heads, and which no doubt fastened
the old mans death Since that
time he has been so decrepit
in body end imbecile in mind as to be
almost helpless.
we have had quite a social sensation
at Burlington. in this county, recent
~. growing out of Il criminal intimacy
between respectable Methodist
preacher, who is also prominent
merchant at that place, with the good
looking wife of the landlord of one of
the hotels. Both parties are married
and Rave respectable standing. 1t is
a regular case of Beecherism. The
woman has been discarded by her
husband and left the other day ac-
companied by her oldest son, boy of
some fourteen years, for her former
home near st. Louis, Missouri. The
affair was Il surprise to the friends of
both parties,

Law 81 Congress supervising railroad
charges fof the nsportation Of freight
and persons from one State into another.
It has been six years, ne believe, since
& bill II that character passed the lower
House Of Congress BY thirty-fve major
ity, but The corporations rallied their
forces and defeated It IN the Senate.
Ikhas ver passed either House since
that IL though the agitafiOn has been
kept d. It Is understood that Mr.. Rea.
gan Texas, the most conspicuous
advdte # the measure, viii introduce
it In be D ext Congress, bat with what
success mains to be seen. His bill is
basad on she theory that while it is com.
petent for the States to supervise corpo-
rations within their own limits, they
cannot be successfully controlled with
out federal legislation whom they cross
the State border. Mr.. Reagan's billfo
bids disct minstioni in rates, between ship
pers and eonsignees; it forbids rebates
and Other special advantages to favored
shippers; it prohibits the charging of a
greater rate for short carriage than
for long one. The bill does not apply
to goods occupying less than one car,
nor to goods whose carriage is limited to
one State or Territory, its object being
to govern the transit of what is called
interstate commerce. The New York
Chamber of Commerce, conservative
association, has expressed its approval
of the bill.

Death Of Rev. G. johnson.


II our last issue ne mentioned the
sudden and severe illness Of this ex.
cellent citizen. It terminated fatally
on the day following. His funeral took
place from the family residence on Fri
day evening, and VAS very largely at
tended. The Masonic fraternity, Of
which deceased had been ; bright and
shining Light, performed the usual cere-
monies at the grave. Mr. johnson was
= native Of Ireland, resided many. years
in Richmond, Va, and for shert time
in Kosciusko, but the best years Of his
life have been spent in thisscity, where
he reared . large family. He was .
minister Of the Baptist faith and preach
ed the gospel when opportunity offered.
For many years he has been connected
with the establishment of Mr.. G. D.
Subway, as book-keeper, salesman, har-
ness maker and painter. He was, it viii
be seen, man of varied and useful at
tainments. He was highly respected in
the community. To his family, his
death is great calamity, and the pub
lie sympathy for them is very great.
The recent death of his son Walter, had
a most depressing effect upon Mr.. John
son. and it is thought the consequent
loss of sleep and rest brought on the
prostration which so soon terminated in
his death.

Silver Dollars.

WASHINGTON, D. c., August 1.-The
Star saws: The accumulation of silver
dollars has become so great that it is now
quite serious question how to dispose
Of them. All storage capacity of the
various vaults and sub-treasuries
throughout the country is already over
taxed and additional vaults built recent
lv are also full. Last Congress appro,
pria.ed 100000 for the purpose of de
raging the cost Of providing additional
storage room. No places as vet have
been selected where new vaults will be
built, and the entire matter is held in
obeyance until the Supervising Archi
lect can report upon the most available
places where there is extra room in pub
lie buildings. 1t is probable vault will
be built in the basement of the Treasu-
~ Department. The basement under
the east wing has never been excavated
and vault can be built there.
Is it not strange that the most simple
Of all the plans that could be devised
for getting rid of the surplus silver be-
longing to the government does not oc-
cur to the mind of the Secretary of the
Treasury, viz, its payment for the prin-
cipal and interest of United States bonds.
Four hundred and fifty millions are now
liable to be paid, and the interest on the
entire debt is constantly maturing. The
silver dollar, for which the Treasurer
can't find store room, contains precisely
the number of grains with which the
government contracted to discharge its
obligations to the creditors, and yet the
Administration pretends that it does not
know what to do with it.

The mass meetingof the Newton coun-
u Democracy adopted the following
resolutions which were reported BY Mr.

ResoE5ed III, That the Democracy Of

as their position on the questions of the
day. Supervision Of railroads and
al corporate bodies, believing that no
body or corporation hare vested rights
superior esthe .EilIof the people; onIF
FOR necessary 0nd conservative tariff
and not for projections; an elective ju-
dietary and al other officers. That It is
the sense Of this meeting that the tender
Of Free Pass By railroads and the ac-
ceptance thereof BIZ any officer, is an at
tempt on the part Of the railroads to
bride and corrupt said officers, and that
the acceptance thereof BIZ any officer Of
the State, county or Judiciary, is viewed
With disfaFor By the voters of the Dem
ocratic party, and re do hereby pledge
ourselves and the Democratic Conserva-
tive party of Newton county to vote
against any officer who may hereafter
receive Free Passes, in any subsequent
election
In addition to the foregoing the follow
ing resolutions were offered by Judge
Hamilton Cooper, and adopted:
We, the voters of Newton county,
State of Mississippi, in mass meeting
assembled, do believe that taxation Of
every species of property should be
equal, according to its real value, aud as
the supreme Court Of the Z. S. have
decided that it is robbery to take the
property of one individual to build up
the private fortunes Of another, so we
believe that it is equally unjust to tax
one individual to make laws and enforce
them for the protection of anothers'
property that is exempt from taxation.
therefore, we resolve to support no
one for Office that will not faithfully en-.
deaYor to carry into effect the following
clauses Of our State Constitution, tor
wit:
Article Y, Sec. 10: The property of
al corporations for pecuniary profit
shall be subject to taxation the same as
individuals.
Sec. 20: Taxation shall be equal and
uniform throughout the State All
property shall be taxed in proportion to
its value, to be ascertained as directed
by law.
