7b the Editor of Ore "Daily Constitution,''
jiflmtu Ga.:
Dub Bn: My attention has been call
ed to an article in your issue of the 8rd
inst, containing aocnsations and impli
cations in regard to myself which are en
tirely false, and whieh mast bare been
known to the writer to hare been so at
tho tilt
I depart from the plan of silence, which
I had determined upon, to oonfnte onoe
for aU, the lying accusations contained
in the article, with the hope that readers
of yoor paper for the future, will reoog-
msc in all articles in relation to myself,
the unvarying system of false represen
tation which has obaractetiaed every
publication against me in your pa|
In your editorial of Febraary 3rd yon
my, in connection with financial dealings
between the Falton Bank, of Brooklyn,
and H. L Kimball, as follows:
“Mr. Johns took the Currency Bonds
on Mr. Clews' recommendations, though
Mr. Clews knew they were illegal. * * *
He soored Mr. Clews sonndly for deceiv-
ins him.'*
Again, yon say :—
“Mr. Johns stated that he had loaned
•100,000 to Kimball on $188,000 of the
bonds of the second indorsement of the
State to the Brunswick and Albany Bail-
road. They were gold State bonds, pre
tended to be secured by second mort
gage bonds of the road $8,000 for $10,000.
He had one of the bonds with him. The
writer oxamiued it It most be remem
bered that two issues of these bonds were
made—a temporary lithographed issno of
$880,000, and a permanent engraved is-
sne of $1,880,000, to be substituted for
the first The second issue wos out and
the first issue should have been in the
Treasurer's oflloe, cancelled, yet Mr.
Johns'bond was one of the substituted
invalid lithographed issne for which the
second engraved issue was out iu some-
bodvelse's bauds.
“We called his attention to the fact
that hia $183,000 of bonds were so muob
waste paper. We advised him to go back
and see Clews aud tell that individual
that he had to get him out of the scrape,
or take the consequences.
“He loft on tho uext train. In ten days
the tame bonds 0/Johns' irrrr sent by Clems
d Co. to the State Treasurer, to be cancelled,
villi the stalemenl that they had been a tony
- time in the office unusetl, overlooked through
a clerk'e negligence. And no further com-
jjnint or claim has been put in by Mr.
John*.
'“it ia hard to get over sueh facts as
those. They talk loudly."
I have written to Mr. Johns in relation
to these charges tnado by yon. I ap
pend a notarial copy of tlio letter wliioh
he has writton me in reply on this sub
ject He dcuios totally haviug over bad
iu his possession s bond such us you say
he allowed you. He denies also having
had any acquaintance with me at the
timo he contracted hia loan with Mr.
Kimliall on the currency bonds.
Mr. Johns writes ss follows:
“Bbooklyh, L. I., February 23,1872.
"Henry Clevs, Es>/ , present: Dear Sir:
In reply ’to yojr note of this date, I beg
to say that I have read the article in the
Constitution, which says that I showed
the editor of that paper a specimen of a
lithographed gold bond of the Siaie of
Georgia, assuring him that I bald 8133,-
0U0 of thi ui us collateral for a loan to H.
L Kimball.
“In answer, I beg to assure you that I
have never, at any time, had a single one
of thia issue of bonds in my possession,
nor has my bank.
“The same article statee that I was in-
duoed, on your recommendation, to lond
some money on Currency Bonds of the
Slate of Georgia.
“In answer to thia I have no hesita
tion in saving that at timo of makiug tho
loan I had no acquaintance with yon nor
any representation* from you in regard to
the security.
“ I have Been in tho papers also a state
ment that I was deceived by you in re
gard to the identity of Governor Bullock
once in your office.
"While I remember having asked if the
person I taw in your counting room was
that gentleman, I have never had reason
to doubt your statement that it waa not
yon abont them. I did not soy that “I
knew nothing of them," as you allege.
Your endeavors to misrepresent my
language oa this occasion have keen
availed of by (lie “Hon." N, L. Angler.
Georgia's State Treasurer, in a pnbliahcd
letter making frivolous personal charges
sguinst me with a view of diverting at
tention irom the finding of a judicial
committee from testimony, taken under
oath, in regard to bis own conduct while
in office, for wliioh he should have been
impeached aud removed.
Mr. Johns also denies that be. undo
ony Bucli u statement as Angi t imputes
to him about “noticing a fine portly man"
in onr office, inquiring “if it was Gover
nor Bullockand that he stayed until he
learned that the identical person, whom
Clews said waa not Bullock, was Bollock.
This immaterial and idle sort of gossip,
which Angier seems to delight in, is
shown by Mr. Johns' letter, to be entirely
(Mae.
I venture to think that iu this com
munity, where I am known, my repute
tiou is sneb that it would bo unnecessary to
answer such falsa and frivolous attempts
to malign my character. Bat as they are
brought forward by you in a community
where I am comparatively a strungor, I
feel it necessary to meet them by show
ing the character and motives of my no-
etteora and the falseness of their chargee.
Very respectfully,
Hmnr Oucws.
This effort to celnmniate Col. Avery
will be duly appreciated by ell who know
him. Onr citiaens, (/course, at the very
first glimpse of Mr. Johns’oracular name,
will be convinced that he bee been tempt
ed into the mostmalioiooimiarepresenta-
tioae against Olewe and Johns, all for the
mere sake of indulging a little satire, for
Col. Aveiy could not have been actuated
by any other motive. Truo Georgians,
we soppoae, will hardly disbelieve Col.
Avei7’s statement and eagerly embraoe
the words of Mr. Johns, who, to aey
the least, is altogether unknown to thorn.
We say this mnoh in jastioe to Col. Avery,
who is now absent from the city, and who,
doubtless, can substantiate his words
when it becomes noeeasary.
We moke no assault on Mr. Johns as
yet, though it seems to be clearly Mr.
dews’ intention to implicate him in his
own infamous transactions to defrand our
Btate of a fabulous amount o( money.
Tho card seems to be published
with a possible hope that it may
invite a controversy with Mr.
Johns, and thus divort, in a degree,
tho suspicions of guilt from
Mr. Clews. Whatever bo the intention
or the consequences, Mr. Clews may rest
inred that Georgians will always have
cause to remember him—very ungrate
fully—for his wise (7) and,.time!v inter-
terference in our finances.
In tho next to tho last paragraph, Mr.
Clews states that Mr. Johns disavowed
a certain statement connected with moot
ing Bullock. We will only observe that
such a denial does uot appear in his note
to Mr. Clows.
Tlieso remarks arc made only in justice
to Col. Avery,, who, wo regret is absent
at this time. We shall probably refer
again to this extraordinary “card."

Washington Crrr, D. C., [
. Thursday, Febranry 29th, 1872. |
Editors Sun :—A bill to refund certain
"taxes collected by tho Government of
tho United States on raw cotton during
tho years eighteen hundred and sixty-
fivo and sixty-six, eighteen hundred
aud sixty-seven," and eighteen hundred
and sixty-eight, bus bocu iutroduced
aud referred to tho Committee on Ways
and Menus.
Notwithstanding tho IXth soction of
thelstarticlo of tho Federal Constitution,
declares that, “no tax or duty shall be
laid on articles exported from any State,"
yet, by aot of Congress the Bevenuc
Agents of the United States collootod
from tbe impoverished people of Uie
South, at least
ONH UUNnnHD AND FIFTY HIU.IONH OF
DOLLABS
ns a tax on raw cotton. An effort is naw
boing made to induce Congress to refund
the cotton tax collected. Tho prospect
lor tho i-nssage of such a bill are not,
however, favorable by any means; reports
to the contrary notwithstanding.
The records of the Treasury Depart-
nicut show that of tho oua hundred and
fifty millions paid by tbe people ol
the South as a tax on raw
cotton, only sixty-fire millions
are reported to have reached the
vaults of tho United States Trcssury,
Therefore, if Congress would
CONDESCEND TO REFl'ND,
it will not bo tbe amount paid by tbe
plnuter, but simply tbe sum reported as
haviug been paid into the Federal Treas
ury,
The 7th section of the bill declares
“that it shall be tbe duty of the Secreta
ry of the Treasury to cause bonds of the
United States to be prepared, in sums of
five hundred dollars oacu and oue thous
and dollars each, payableat the Treasury
of tho United States, to bearer, at the end
<f forty years from date, in gold, boaring
interest at tbe rate of four and one-half
ptr centum per annum, payable semi-an
nually in gold, to be colled cotton tax
bonds,'' Ac.
This, to say the least, is a very objec
tionable section, for the reason that if the
[tax was unconstitutional,
ss it unquestionably was, it would be
refunded in eorreucy with interest, and
not in bonds, which tbe holder would
have to aell oertainly below their nominal
value. Besides, the burden of liquida
ting such bonds would fall as well on the
planter, who had been unjustly taxed in
the first instance, as those never paying
such a tax.
While every principle ol law and equity
demands tho refunding of tbe cotton tax,
yet legislation granting and authorising
such notion should be »j gu aided that the
cotton producer, who jiaid tho tax in
every inatanoo, would be the beneficiary,
and not the merchant or speculator.
I learn that the Government records
show that
NOItTH CAROLINA PAID
into the Treasury of tho Uuited States,
as a tax on new cotton, two and ono-half
millions of dollars; South Carolina, five
millions; Florida, two and a half mil

treated by the beat medical skill in my section with
out much benefit Ho was greatly swollen, and his
legs looked ss though the flesh would all loave the

order medicino from aud put him under the treat

of him. I do cheerfully recommend to all afflic
