Fur Disking Tobacco to Employes— The Revenue Rale. The following correspondence decides an important question, and we are glad to no* tice that Mr. Douglass has at last compre hended the distinction between dealing in tobacco for a profit, and supplying it on the old plantation plan without profit: United Statu Senate Chamber, \ Washington, May, 1874. j Dear Colonel -—On receipt of your letter of May 11th, which I found here on my re* tarn from Savannah, on the 19th, 1 referred it to the Treasury Department, and 1 here with enclose the reply of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue. 1 think it covers yonr ise. 1 sent you at an early day after its pnbli* cation, in pamphlet form, a copy of my speech on “Civil Rights,” 1 hope yon received it by due course of mail. Very Truly, Yonr Friend, T, M. Norwood. Hon. Reuben Jones, Newton, Ga. Tbeasuby Department, Office of Commisiobkr of Int. Key. Washington, May 22J, 1874 Sib:—Enclosed 1 return the letter of jour correspondent, Reuben Jones, Esq , address ed to you, under date of .May 11th, and by yon referred to this office fora ruling or tie-, cirion upon the matter therein presented. In reply to Mr. Jones' enquiry, 1 have to Say that tho law makes every person liable to pay a special tax, as “dealer in tobacco,” “whose business it is to sell, or offer for sale manufactured tobacco, snuff or cigars-” See section 59 act of July 20,18GS- Under this provision of law, this office holds that every person who makes it. a business to selljor offer for sale,or advert ise or in any way holds himself out as willing and ready to sell manufactured tobacco, &c , is liable to pay a special tax therefor; but a farmer who simply supplies his employees with what manufactured tobacco they need for their own personal use, and for their special accommo dation, and not with a view to gain or profit to himself, is not regarded as engaged in the business of selling manufactured tobacco,and would not be required to pay a special tag for thus supplying his hired laborers with to* bacco, Yours, Respectfully, J. W. Douolass, Commissioner. Hon. T. M. Norwood, Senator, Washington, D. C. . We copy, gays the Advertiser-Republican, from the New York Tribune the following notice cf Lynch, the negro member of Con gress from Mississippi. He is indeed a rep* resentative mao. He talks the ti ue negro talk ; and let the Republicans make the most of it. If they desire to take their chances with the negro, ifthey intend to turn their backs upon the people of their own race and hue, let them. If there was a paper that had a sincere and honest sympathy with the ne a sympathy inspired by a sincere phi. lunihropy—it was the New York Tribune — See what jt says : .Mr. Lynch, of Mississippi, made a speech in the Republican caucus, where the faithful were discussing the prospects of the party for the next campaign, and considering what iprofesgon they should profess during'the vass and whether it was prudent to piofesa anything it aU. Lynch is a|youug negro.born iu slavery, and was entirely without educa tion until the Union armies at Natchez made him a contraband. Then he picked up a little schooling, and after the war was made a justice of the peace under the carpet bag government of General Ames. From one office to another he worked bis way along Until he got to Congress. He seems to be a type of the shrewd, glib, .active*, ambitious Colored men m whom Nor thern adventurers find their aptest allies and instruments in the manipulation of the South ern satrapies. We know nothing discred itable to him personally, but there can be no question of the class to which be belongs — Mr. Lynch spoke of-the civil rights bill, and he was, of course, not well pleased at the manner in which the Rouse had treated it; but he assured the'caucus of the strict party fidelity of the colored people. There was to be no reconciliation between them and their old masters. They wo ild not believe that slavery was beyond revival. They not trust a Southern white man \jrith their liberties. They cared comparatively little for honesty in office—this at least was the general drift of bis address—they could par don fraud, corruption, licentiousness, any thing mean or disgraceful, to an orthodox Republican politician; and they would sooner vote for a thief like Moses than an upright gentleman like Lamar. These are the con clusions logically to be drawn from the re marks of Mr. Lyoch, as we collate them from the reports of the various papers ; and it will be seen that they are equivalent to a notice to the parly that it may nominate any rascal they please, and the Southern negroes will swallow him.” Georgia Pine Lands. A G. Butts, of Macon, writing to the New York South, says attention has been called to the fact that the Georgia Legislature, at its last session,had granted franchises to the dis tinguished gentlemen, General Joseph £. Johnston, and Colouel P. H. Raiford. for the construction of a caual across the plateau of the Okefeuokee, thus opening up to the At lantic wat* rs 2,000 square miles of choice yellow piue timber lands, In a few years the remaining timber lands, within the pine bell, will be denuded of its timber. In view of this fact and further that the Goveroiqeut of tbe-UoutedSlatespossesses no yellow pine timber lands upon the At • latic slope, this timber being so necessary for naval architecture, would it not be wisdom on the part of this government to purchase this tract of 2,000 square miles, and open water communication to it on some plan that may be devised, or by granting alternate sec* tioua of laud to the company that - bolds the franchise, the government to hold the re maining sections for further use, with ex pressed conditions that the company will construct the canal. • I think the Cong* ess of the United States should at once appoint a commission to take into consideration the subject of the depletion of the pine forest upon the Atlantic sea board before it is too late.” And what, pray , in the name of the Con* stitution, has Congress to do with it ? Does Mr. Batts desire Congress to prohibit or regulate the cutting of timber in the pine lands of Georgia ? Bright idea! Tho next proposition will probably be for congressional interference wiili the mode of marriage, and the manner of supplying babies to'the “poor, downtrodden and oppressed people of the South.” ‘Haro” Howard Anticipated “Civil Rights” Bill. Ike THE FLOBBBCE That nsqseoqs hypocrite and unblushing plunderer, Howard, baa been making himaeir etill more dUguetiug to decent people. The Norfolk Virginian says .- On Tneeday morning last General O. O. Howard, of negro wurabippiug fame, and about whom tbe odal of the Freedmeu’a Bureau still clings, look passage on the steamer N. P Banks for Fortress Mouroe with a party of bis friends, among whom were two negroes. One uf the'party a white man by I be name of Pierce’applied to Cap tain P. McCarrick for breakfast for a' party uf seven. Tbe arrangements were m,de. hut alter- wards, ascertaining that tbe party contained negroes, the request was denied aa far as the negraea were concerned Tbe man Pierce look exeeptionsto this decision of tbe Captain, and called in General Howard to use bis in fluence. The General tried persuasion and threats, but Captaiu -McCarrick was immova ble to bout. Ue said he was captain of tbat boat, and until the civil rights bill was passed, qnd be way compelled <o admit them, no ne gro should ever sit at file table iu. bis cabin Howard blustered, bat was wise enough not to attempt to force the way of himself and- the negroes to tbe table When tbe boat lonched at Fortress Mon roe the party went ashore hurriedly, 1 Captain McCarrick, thinking tbey bad signs upon the Hygeia Hotel, notified tbe su perintendent of the attempt which bad been made on the boat. The information came too late; for, before ;i..-y lie prevented tbe entire party bad forced their way iuio tbe dining room and obtained their breakfast. Mr. John Fbcebus, the proprietor, used some pretty plain language to HowarJ, and warned him never to attempt such a trick as that upon him again.

The new .party movement is at length under way. ‘ Some thirteen WOstein members of Congress have recently adopted a platform which tbey propose as the neucleus of * new party organization. This platform runt somewhat aa follows : 1. A oall for a Constitutional Convention to effect several changes in the fundamental laws of the United States, among which will be (a) tbe eleotion of President, Tice-Pres, ideut and Senators directly by the people ; (6) subordinating all corporations to the National Government; (c) disallowing special privileges to any corporation ; (J) adding largely to the authority of the General Gov ernment in matters affecting the transpor tation snd trades of the conntry ; (e) and making such banking provisions as will allow the General Government to institute banks under its own authority. 2. A a immediate agitation for committing Congress and the nation at once to the carry ing out of the scheme of the five great ar tificial water routes recommended by the Transportation Committee of the 8enate— that ia the opening of the mouths of tbe Mis sissippi, the connection of tbe Mississippi with the lakes, the ship canal around Niag ara, the enlargement of the Erie oanal, and the joining of the James river with tbe waters of the Ohio by a Canal. 3. Tbe construction of at least two freight railways under the authority of the General Government, so as to regulate the charges of the main lines of tbe country. A Jury Terribly ttebgked and an Ac quitted frlmlnal Judicially Cremated, After tbe jury in Fulton Superior Court bad brought in u verdict af not guilty in tbe oese of Hubbard Cozart, tbe men wbo come weeks since shot and wounded a lady in n crowded car on tbe Air Line road while trying to kill » man named Thomas, Judge Hopkins addressed Cozart niter this right eons fashion . ‘The jury have acquitted yon of this charge. Entrusted as I am to some extent with the administration of tbe law in Ibis oounty, 1 cannot allow yon to be discharged from custody without n wor<l at put this ver dict. {f this verdict goes ont to the public witbont explanation, it will operate as a li cense to crime. 1 do not hesitate to say, tbat ii is unwarranted by any prineiple of law or by any fact known to me. I do not question the motire of the jury.; I have nothing ta ssy la that- I wish to protect the public interest the best that I can,and it must not be thought that a man can get into a drunken row and go into n railway car crowded with men, wo men and children, and without provocation or sufficient cause, draw a murderous weapon and shoot it at will among them. That is wlial was done in this case, and the verdict vindicates the copdppt, bqt is not the law. This evidence discloses the most complete case of rowdyism and otter disregard of human life tbat has erer come oner my ohservation. It richly merited tbe utmost penalty author ised by law- The verdict ia final and conclu sive, and an outraged law must submit to U.

Judge Hopkins.—tet him bo held to' nu- — - — Imaiteratiai) aqd Real Estatp- Jt is uncertain which of the “aev parties' will “bear tbe gree, nuJ a’ that.” ibe Gran gers for a time seemed ta have it. The ban ners of victory have to the eye of faith for many years been fluttering frum the stand* ards of the total abstiuence people. Re* eently the Brewers bare appeared in the political arena with a parly. Worcester, .Massachusetts, a few weeks ago, a new po* litical party was conceived, nailed, the Young Men's party, which promised to sweep the conntry : but it has seemed to have an attack of excessive youth, of which it died. Deacon Smith and Mr. Payne invented a political contrivance in this city, which, if it hadn’t been eo complicated and .ridiculous, might have turned out a party. Hans Breitman had a “party” some time ago, which came aa near sweeping tbe country and electing a President as any of those named have done. Recently in Gahanna, Ohio, Carrie E, Moore sought to start a parly, and drew up a pledge on which it was to be based, the essence of which was contained in the following : “That 1 will never encourage or engage in the - sexual act with any woman unless prompted by pure, reciprocated love, and not even then, if by'so doing her moral or social reputation may in any way be endan gered.” For some unexplained reason this parly, with by no means an exacting platform.which ought speedily to have included a large ma jority of tbe voters of Ohio and of tbe country, has disappeared from view, prob ably because the zeal of its founder weakened, or her views changed. Not to speak of tbe Free Trade party, and a Currency party, and tbe late Liberal party, a fid several others,tbe latest attempt to form a new party has been made iu Syracuse, New York On the old camping grounds of the Anti-Masonic party the effort has been made to resurrect that organization, and the endeavor is a serious Tbe Anti-Secret Society Convention in tbat city, on the 4th inst., adopted some res olutions which may have formed the inspi ration of the men of a generation ago when William lleury Seward led the hosts against secrecy. The revolutions are curious. Tbe wouhl pioneers in a new cause ought to regard that cause as tbe only one iu which mankind should feel an enthusiastic interest. So we find these men lesolving that secret soci eties are * a standing menace to the religiou of Jesus Christ, as well as to the republican institutions which draw their life from it. It is expected, therefore, that all believers in Jesus Christ, and all who love our blood* bought institutions, will straightway join this party, who will make a good nucleus around which to gather a large organization. Tbe reasons for opposing Freemasonry, aa given at Syracuse, are interesting. One is the “exclusion from its membership of all old men in their dotage, young men in their nonage, all imbeciles, cripples and maimed persons, all in feeble health, and all women tbe persons above all others most needing hu man sympathy and Christian charily.” This objection is not adroitly framed. It is almost equivalent to saying to Freemasons: “Yonr institution is a good one, bat you don’t ad* mil enough of us to its benefits ” The second objection of tbe Syraousana is hardly more impressive. They recalcitrate, -secondly, against the welcoming unchanged, unregen- erated, nnsnnctified pagans. Mohammedans, Jews, infidels, and nominal Christians to the same altar of worship at the same lime.”— This appears to the impartial mind to be a very catholic and Christian thing to do. The Author of the Christian religion gave the new Dispensation a label very much like that. He welcomed Jew find Oentile,* bond and- free, Ac., “at the same time.” Indeed, if He had not adopted this course He would have had a field very much circumscribed, for Chrislsins were not very numerous before the coming of Christ. The third objection fo (be Masons i*^ st tbey take care of themselves, feritpari- s, instead of others. This objection is phrased aa follows; Third, The specialty of its charities, its so-called exhibitions of benevolence, making Masons, iustead of Christians, objects of fa voritism, or in other words, substituting, snbstaotially, Masons for the household faith, thus making an anti Christian distinction.” This newest or resurrected party is uncom promising It attacks the Grangera remorse lessly Secret temperance orders fare no better; and to make its position unmistakable it dei* dares that a man cannot be a Freemason and at the same time a Christian and a loyal cH- On this broad basis a new National party was formed last week. “The Ameri* “ is the name of it. A National Conven tion is to be called to nominate Presidential candidates, and a formal platform of princi ples is to be formed by a Committee ot One from each State. We. are not altogether per* euaded to become an “organ” of tbii new party. We want more light.—Cincinnati fa* girirtr. THE BEST INVESTMENT Young Men W HO WISH TO OBTAIN A THOROUGH PRAC- lica!

Jones, have continued tbe demoralized feeling among the Republicans. * Nothing else has been talked of. Tbe President has been accused of an intention to break up tbe Republican party for tbe purpose of forming & new one on tbe currency question and with divers other political movements in order to see where tbe party is going* to stand in re* lation to-him. It has been decided to call a caucus of Republican Senators and members, in tbe ball of the House on Monday or Tues day next to discuss the situation. The Con ference Committee, at their session on Sat urday, decided to go.as fqr as possible to ao~ coimaodale the PresideqUs views, and pre pare a. bill tliat will probably pass both Rouses.
