Incident of the War.—Many sad stories have been told of the late war. One of the saddest that wc know of oc curred at the well known battle of Cbick- antauga, in 1863. As a Celebrated ar tillery company from Eufaula, were or dered to pursue the enemy, who were giving away at all points, one of its members suddenly stopped, and kneel ing down, kissed a dead body which lay in its line of march, ll was his son, and two years had elapsed since last he saw him. It was indeed a sad meeting, but duty impelled the father onward, and however much his heart might might be agonized, the true soldier of the South, could not stop to shed his manly tears. Ilia sou, he felt assmed, had done his duty, and he was going to do his.

Archbishop Spaulding. The death on the 7th ins 7 ., of this eminent prelate ol the Catholic Church has bpcn the occasion ot profound sor row throughout the whole country. IIo was buried at HnUiuini*—many' of tile Bishops and Priests of Lis Church being ! ; present, and thousands of spectators of all classes and chinches. The ceremony was as solemn and imposing as it could be tuade. A funeral oration was pro nounced by Archbishop McCioskc . pc i Th ■try of the Judge is ail the ex- p use I know of, worth noting. And suppose his salary to be 81,000, and it ought not to be less, for tbe services of a competent ntau. That is the debit. Now let us enu merate the credits. Id. Tho records of the Court of Or dinal'" will show that tho expenses cf locking up and feeding of criminals iu our County Jail is not less than from twelve to fifteen hundred dollars per annum. It is a fair estimate to say' that thive-ll ths of this expense will be saved to the County under this Court system, which will leave about nine hundred doll: rs,—an item of itself about sufficient to pay the Judge’s salary. 2l. The cases tried in the County Court will abridge one-half of the busi ness of the Superior Court, consequent ly curtail the duration of its sessions to one half lhe length of time. This item alone will save in money, and ia time consume! by jurors and witnesses, an amount of considerable importance, as the Judge is the court and jury both, in all cases, except in criminal causes, and even then, unless the defendant de*- mnnds a jury trial; and, in that event, the process of obtaining ajury and trial is a short and convenient one: 3rd. Tbe,costs iu tbe criminal cases and County business together, with the fines and forfeitures, all of which go into the County Treasury, will well nigh, if not quite, pay the Judge’s salary it self. So much for the debt and credit iu a financial point of view. But there are other aud important reasons for the or- gaaiz ition of such a court. 4 h. Tito concentration of civil suits if dcFra le at the Court-house, saving trouble and expense of traveling to the vatious districts in the County is cer tainly convenient if not economical. 5th.

Because when we make application for a eopy of our portrait they always reply with a ne gative. Worth Pieserving.—The following useful hints as to what to do in emer gencies are worth preserving: If a person falls in a fit, and begins to snore loudly, with very red face, it is apoplexy. Let him he seated so as to favor tbe blood going downwards, away from the head; apply cold cloths to the head, or cushions of equal quantities of sr.ow or pounded ice and common salt. If the person is perfectly still, face pale, and there is no perceptible breath ing, it is a fit of faintiug. Do not touch him except to loosen the clothing; then keep off five or teu feet distant so as to allow the air to come in; make no noise, and there will vety soon be a calm, quiet return to consciousness and life, tor it is ouly a momentary cesi-ation of the circulation of tbe blood to the bead. But suppose there is a very violent motion of the hands and feet, and all sorts of bodily contortions, it is epilepsy. Let the man contort uutil he is tired; yon esn’t hold him still; all your efforts only tend to aggravate the trouble aud to exhaust the strength; all that ought to Le done i» to keep the unfortunate from burling himscif- There is no felt suffering, for as soon as he comes too. he will tell you that he remembers nothing whatever of what has passed, appears to be the ouly calm and self possessed par son iu the whole crowd, and is appar- ensly as perfectly well as before tho occurrence. Dizziners often comes in stantaneously, and we begin to reel be fore we know it. Shut the eyes, wheth cr you are walking along the street, looking over a precipice, ascending a ladder, or climbing. to a ship’s mast head; the liar or dizziness disappears instantly if you look upward. About to F/ummux.—The YY’aslting- ton Republican, of Tuesday, says that North Carolina Radicals in that city are in rrceipt of telegrams from leading Repiiblicuiis in all parts ol that State, asking whether it is true that tbe Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections lias decided against tbe claim of Abbott in favor of Ransom. If it is so, they say that they will make uo cffoit what ever to organize tbe Republican party iu that State, and let the election, which takes place on the 4th of August next, the first of the campaign, go by default for the Democracy. Col. C. YYT. Styles, editor of the Al bany News, has been nominated for the Senate by the Democrats of tbe lOili District. The election is a special one, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of Senator Welch, Radical. y. which the virtues of the deceased wei extolled in ti e presence of tint eager j mass of hearers.

From Times & Planter, Refunding the Cotton Taz. T! >e New Y ork YY’orlu of last Monday has the following upon the sul jeet of re funding the c tton tax : A bill lias been prepared, and will shortly be introduced in Congress, for relnndit.g the taxes collected o:rr: w cot (on during the first four years after the close of the war. We opposed that tax when it was imposed, and during the whole period of its continuance, as un just, inexpedient, and of doubtful cou j lin, Editors Cliicag Fully illustrated. From Times & Planter! The “Reform Movement.” YYe accept the inauguration of this ‘‘movement’’ as a hopeful “sign of tbe times”—hopeful because it evinces that some of the dangers which threaten our Government are being felt and appie- eiated in tho North aud among the members of that party which is working the ruin. It ii dieates a split in the Republican party, aud its consequent weakening in (be coming campaign. It is tbe indignant protest of that wing of the party which urges upholding the Constitution and maintaining the sove reignty of the States against further wicked assumptions of power on tho part of the Government. Tho leaders in this movement of reform are Governor B. Grata Brown and Senator CariScLurz, ! who are men of ability—and what is | more, thus far, men of sucec*s. They I pioneer this enterprise,[and are endorsed j in it by several leading men of Ohio j The Convention is culled to meet in May, 1872, when they will doubtless 1 ascertain what strength they may be able to command iu tbe coming campaign, and fully set forth a declaration of their principles. Among other things they dcncunce the despotic control over those sections which had sunendcred and ac quiesced in the settlements of the war, arid the refusal of amnesty to all our people, as not only blunders, but crimes T he following extracts from u speech of Governor B Gratz Brown, speak for themselves : Day by day the firm foundations of your constitutional forms of government arc being insidiously sapped, under one excuse or another ; now to mold judicial decisions, now to control cleelions, now to suppress an alleged disorder; aud thus uuder the guiso of maintaining the liberties of some, there is being prepared lliai. fatal lethargy of local independence aud sell-government which hut smooths tbe way for the slavery of all. The as sumption aud continued exercise by the General Government of powers largely self-asserted in time of war, never dreamed ol heretofore in time of peace, the military marshaling of all its funct ions into the control of a single will, aud the fierce partisanship which accords to toy, in } stitutiouality. But the question of re funding is attended with difficulties to which we cannot be blind. The tax I was really paid by the producers ; bat' in most cases they did not pay it direct* j ly. Most of tlie small planters sold their cotton at two or tinea cents a i pound less to tbe agents, who actually j paid the tax ; and if the tax was retail* ded to the agents who actually paid it, but lost nothing, there would be a maoi- f.-st injustice. Equity requires that the reimbursement should be made to the small planters who sold their cotton at a discount and bore the burden of tax; but there are great practical difficulties in the way of doing'them justice. If the tax were to bo reiunded to agents and speculators who did not suffer, it would be a scandalous misappropriation of the public money. Tho bill, of which we have an early copy, stands on solid grounds enough it the tux could be restored to the parties who really paid it. It recites, in its preamble, that, after two solemn argu ments, the judges of the Supreme Court were equally divided as to the constitu tionality of the tax, thus leaving its con stitutionally questionable. The pream ble also recites that no other raw agri cultural product of any Slate has been so taxed ; a statement which is true in point of fact, and convicts the authors of the tax of an injurious and unjust B.-sl ? boots ox tent.
