WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-The Brazilian

Mount Vernon this morning. When the
party reached Washington's tomb the Ameri-

see floral piece five feet in height, in the
center of which was the fac-simile of Bra

white immortelles " In memory of the great

CONGRESSIONAL.

Mr.. EDITOR-I see in your last
issue a letter from some one
signing "Cumberland," expos
tulating on the merits Of Col.
w. j. Green, and putting him
forward q candidate before the
next Congressional Convention.
Well, Col. Green is a gentleman,
and made good representative
while in COngre ss-not word
to bt4 said against him personal
ly, but he has been honored
twice to that high position, aud
as rotation seems to be the order
Of the day, we are certainly not
lacking in material in this dis
trict. Yes, he was honored two
terms, four years, for which ser
vices he received twenty thou
sand dollars. Now, | think, he
and his friends should be salts
fed. AS for material, where
is Boykin, Aycock, Mclean, Gal
lOway, McIver, Stewart and Kerr,
and a host Of others fully capa-
bic. But am a Boykin or Ay-
cock man. Some say oh! they
are lawyers we want farmers.
Well, McClammy claims to be a
farmer. He J as been honored
twice and got his twenty thou
sand. B. f. Grady is frequently
spoken of. He is certainly a
orainy man, a gentleman, IL
scholar and one of the best post
ed men in the State, and one
who would fill the position with
credit and ability. Rev. Colin
Shaw is mentioned also. He is
as plucky as game-cock, and
as bold and fearless as a lion in
the forest, and would stand up
boldly for the interest of his
constituents. / will -he.e sug-
gest man for consideration, for
the position, who is as eminent
ly qualified for it, DIS any that
we have had, since the talented

and not in name only; he is a

He can tell you fluently, the
population, indebtedness, &C., of

may give the people OF the
country an opportunity 10 get
even with those who have been
the benefciaries of the govern
ment. An income tax, although
in its nature incapable Of
being "unifOrm,' and, therefore
unconstitutional from the stand
point Of the strict COustruc-
ZIONIST, is one of these measures,
and has the merit, if it IS d
merit, Of having been sustained
by the Supreme court. The Sub
Treasury scheme OF the Ali
ancc is another; and, while it Is
objected to on the plea that it
is not warranted by the cOnsti-
tuition, the strictist cOnstruc
ZIONIST cannot deny the power
of the government to remedy
the evils which have been in
ficted on the farmers and 10 Dor
ing people by that government.
TO undo a wrong can never be
unconstitutional.

Mr.. rs display Of egal learn

asserts that the "oupreme court

omits to quote the language of
the court. | infer from this
that he quotes from memory,
and | further infer from the
fact that this decision was not
published to stop the agitation
during the last session of the

fallen into an error. If lie will
