The following, from Headquarters, ex plains itself. Those who owe Taxes will take timely notiee, and govern themselves accordingly : Hcado'rs, Third Military District, Y (Dept Ga., Florida, and Alabama), I Office of Assistant Adj’t Gen’), j Atlanta, Ga., April Gth, 1868. j Mr. John D. Smith, Sheriff Richmond Cos. Ga„ Augusta, Ga.: Sir — l have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 20th ult., and, in reply, to state that the Command ing General declines to issue any order suspending the collection of taxes. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, S. F. Barstow, Acting Ass’t Adj’t General. Hard to Please. Onr good Democratic friends are hard to please. Since Order No. 51 has been promul gated there seems to be no language suffi ciently denunciatory of “Gen. Meade and his tyranny" (as they are pleased to cail it), which they can find to use—“D. P. o.” (Damn Pkool Order), —“one man power,” “Military supremacy,” etc., etc. It is pass ing strange that such is the case, for the reason that every effort they make in opposi tion to the reestablishment of a regular civil government in the State, and every vote they give against Reconstruction is but add ing to the chances for a continuance of mili tary government in the State of Georgia, and necessarily—if they (should be successful— continue for an indefinite time the very thing they so much deprecate, abuse and curse. If we wish an evil abated, we think the wisest, and of course the best, course to pur suers not to go to work with might and main to increase the chances for its continu ance, but to use every means in our power to remove it. We cannot but think that the Democratic party of the South—Georgia particularly— led on by unwise counsels from zealous monomaniacs of the Ben Hill, Kanse Wright and Gordon school, assisted by the yelping crowd of newspaper men tacked on to them like a tail to a kite, are doing themselves not only injury but injustice to their common sense. The “rank and file” of the Democratic party, who suffer their rights and interests to be entrusted to such leaders, deserve commiseration for their blindness. They cannot surely see the folly of the course pursued ; ior if they could do so, we cer tainly will give them the credit to say that we believe they would at once cut oft from such associations. Until this Union is re stored—until Georgia is an integral part of it again—it is a species of blindness and folly unsurpassed to suppose for a moment that a healthy state of business, of mechani cal labor, or of agricultural labor, can again bless the land. Every vote, therefore, against the Constitution and the Republican party now, is an error fatal to the idea of an early resumption of civil law, peace, and order- For it is clearly inevitable that a defeat of the new Constitution, and of the Party supporting it, even by default, bribery, or other disreputable means, but extends the so much dreaded military power, pre vents a return to civil government, and but defers the final end, with all the discom- forts, disappointments, and disagreements thereunto attending upon such a state of affairs. Such being the case, why will you Democrats of Georgia be longer used as the puppets by those who seek not your good, but their ambitious ends? HON. HENRY WILSON FOR GEN. GRANT. YVe find in our exchanges the following; Senate Chamber, | YY’ashington, March 30. ) My Dear Sir ; In a communication to the Anti Slavery Standard yon say that “Sena tor YVilson works for Grant, who is no Radical, and objects toother candidates who are Radicals, because they sometimes drink.” I am sure you do not intend to be unjust, but you certainly have placed me in a false position. For thirty seven years I have been a pledged temperance man, and I have striven to be faithful to a cause my heart loves and my judgment approves. While I have ever regarded intemperance to be a terrible calamity to humanity and a sin against God, I have always felt the deepest pity and sympathy for all whose lives were blighted by it. I know of no Radical whose name has been mentioned for the Presidency who gets drunk, or to whoso nomination I have objected because he sometimes drinks. I have seen General Grant in the camp, in his office, at his own house, and at dinner parties, where liquors were freely used by others, but I have never seen him drink even a glass of wine, nor have I ever seen him when I had the slightest reason to think he was in any degree under the influence of drink. You say further, that 1 work for Grant, who is not a Radical. I have done little ■work for General Grant, for it was not necessary .that any one should work for him. The Republicans of nearly every State, with great unanimity, have pro nounced for him, hut this result was not achieved by work, but by the needs of the country and tha instincts of a patriotic and liberty-loving people. I took occasion, more than four years ago, to express, on the floor of the Senate, my conviction that a patriotic and liberty-loving people, betrayed 1 by the President, would turn to that great soldier and summon him to marshal them to victory. Thirty-two years ago I fully committed myself to the anti-slavery cause, and I have striven with voice and vote to advance it to its final and crowning triumph, It was because I was an anti slavery man—a Radical Republican—be cause I believed tho cause of equal and impartial liberty to be above the ambitions and interests of public men, and because I ' believed General Grant would carry that cause to assured victory, that 1 turned to him as the Presidential candidate of the Republican party. I know him to be an honest, just and firm man, whoso fidelity to his country and to the equal rights of all his countrymen cannot be questioned. Gladly would I have welcomed some one of the anti slavery men, if such nomination could have assured the success of our cause in the great struggle of this year. But the | pioneer anti-slavery men have ever been forced by tho needs of their struggling cause to be self-sacrificing and self-forgetful. The self sacrificing spirit and self-forgetful ness have achioTcd glorious victories for humanity in tho past, and I trust will win in the future the election of a President under whoso administration the unity of the country will be assured, and the equal rights and privileges of all citizens secured. Yours truly, Henry Wilson. Jas. Kkdimth, Esq., Boston. *♦> • —— The Psalm singers down in New Hamp shire have discovered anew application of the following couplet of tho good old I)r. Watts.

Editor National Republican : Dear Sir: The provision market, early in tho week, was quiet, but as tho week advanced, the feeling grew stronger and prices of all articles mater-ally advanced with the exception of Lard. The feeling growing stronger from day to day, there has, perhaps, been but few seasons when the tone of the market has heen as strong so early with as much good reason as this. The supply of summer hogs is extremely light, and country points are ordering their supplies from city points. The advance in Cotton has stimulated the South, and factories are now more willing aud able to assist plante s with loans to plaut another crop. These facts, together with tho large foreign demand, has done much to damage prices of provisions, and our holders feel confident in higher prices in the future. Tho market closes strong for all articles as quoted below. MESS PORK h;i3 advanced to $25.00, with few buyers, but is generally held at $25.75a2fi for city—country 25 to 50c less, according to quality. RUMPS are in extraordinary demand, and sell at $lB to 21—as in quality. LARD is dull undci foreign advices, hut city can’t bo had under K*o, and choice country ie less, and same forprimo steam. Keg held at 17c, but little in market. UREASES firm and scarce, at 11 to 14c, for the range of grades. BULK MEATS have advanced, and are in large demand at 12$, 13, 14 and 14A for Shoul ders sides, clear rib, and clear sides, all loose, but held i higher, llama in good demand at 14Jc for choice cuts. BACON has also advanced, closing firm, with buyers of shoulder.-, sides, clear rib and clear sides at 12, 14, 15, and 15$c, but holders gene rally demand jc over these figures. Plain hams lfi£c, sugar cured hams 17i to ISJc, canvassed and packed. PLATE BEEF.—Useless to quoto it, it is so scare that it can only bo had at fancy prices. EXPORTS of the week: 1,056 bbls. and 869 kegs of Lard; 1,212 hhds. and 1,732 tres. bulk and Bacon ; 6,079 bbls Pork, and 166,465 lbs. loose Meats. IMPORTS.—7BB bbls and 257 kegs of Lard ; 2,055 bbls Pork and 1.228,889 lbs. of loose Meats. FREIGHTS will advance soon to 55, 60, 65a70 all rail to Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York and Boston. Southern freights unchanged, but changeable from day to day. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. IN BANKRUPTCY. U. S.

Hy Annual Magnetism we claim that the dis eased aud deranged action of the nervous and vacnlar systems are restored to a perfect equilib rium much more readily than hy any othtr means known to the medical world, either iu the ] -esent or the past ages. ‘ Nature must do the heali. is the saving of every sensible and honest phy i cian, ana that “all we can do in case of sickness is to aid Nature.” This Prof. Roberts aims to do hy the great science of Animal Magnetism, and that., too, without drugs!

I hereby certify that I have heen partially para lyzed for four years. Four mouths of that time I was not able to make a step, or even bo much as move one of my toes on either foot, and was en tirely destitute o! feeling in my legs. I was examined by forty eight Confederate Army Surgeons, all pronouncing me incurable— having Curvature of the Spine, which produced paralysis. I commenced taking treatment of Pro lessor Roberts, March 4th, 1868, and now, after taking nine treatments, by Animal Magnetism , 1 feel like a “new creature!” 1 can now stand up, and wal/c any desired distance, without crutches or canes , which was utterly impossible Jor more than four years before seeing Dr. Roberts. For reputation and responsibility, I refer those interested to Mr. W. A. Ramsey, Mr. Edward liodgers, Mr. John M. Clark, Mr. Nicholas Young blood, and Mr. John Houston, all of Augusta, Ga.

February 18th and 20th, 1868, and now have not one symptom of Rheumatism or pain in my body. AH tile medicine I had taken seemed to make me worse, and i never had any rehef until I was t reated magnetically. People may laugh ; hut I have no more rheumatic pants -that’s so. I work in the Augusta Hotel. [Signed] NANCY MASON, Atlanta, Ga.. Feb. 12,1868. I have heen a hopeless invalid for the weary space of ten or Uvelve years, laboring under a combination of dreadful disease;; which hav long since been pronounced inenrab.e. I had of 'a*e grown rapidly worse, until three days since I w..s brought to this city on a bed, being entirely nuabie to sit up, for the purpose of consulting the far famed Prof. Roberts. After the first treatment, wltich was only a few minutes, f was free of all pain and able to walk anywhere, aud to-day I fee! so well and strong I can scarcely realize that I am tiie same being who was so feeble aud suffer ing so ranch three days since. I cau never express my heartfelt gratitude to the man whose wonder ful skill lias thus relieved me of so ranch inexpres sible suffering. May God bless the Doctor wherever he goes, is my humble prayer. [Signed] Mbs. J. 11. NASH, Lovejoy’s Station, Georgia. Augusta, Ga., March 30, 1868. In June, ISO", I was residing in ilemphis, Tcnu. I have been suffering from Piles for twenty-eight years, the last eight of which I had been almost unfitted for business of any kind, and had no hope of a euro. A nephew of mine had suffered fiftoeu years with tho same complaint; lie went to Philadelphia, was four months under Dr. Pancost; submitted to an operation with the knifo, and was finally cured, for which he paid ono thousand dollars, besides his expenses to and from Philadelphia. I called on Professor Roberts and received threo treatments, by Animal slag neticism, at his hands, and was entirety cured, and am well; yet, for which I paid twenty dol lars. I would not to-day he placed again in tho condition you found me ten months ago, and with as little hope of a cure as I bad before your three treatments, for twenty thousand dollars. Very truly yours, J. L. Grace, 336 Broad Si, Augusta, Ga. Atlanta, Ga.. March 3d, 1868. This certifies that 1 have suffered exceedingly with a large tumor on the left side of my tace tor twenty-live years. During this age of torture it lias been removed twice by paiuful surgical opera tiona, which only seemed to aggravate its growth. When l)r. Roberts came to Atlanta 1 took treat meat hy Animal Magnetism, and have heen greatly beuefitted hr him—in point.of truth, more than by the entire liccuty-sevc n “regular” doctors wiio have attended me. Under the treatment., the tumor softened and re duced in size, the hearing iu my left car has heen restored, aud my left arm, which was almost use less, has been restored to its original strength. I can now sleep on my left side—a thing 1 could uot do tor many- years before. I firmly believe if 1 could continue tiie treatment the tumor would entirely disappear. M us. J. G. McLIN.
