We have seen frequent allusions in our up country exchanges to the prevalence in that region of disorders, outrages and robbe ries perpetrated by bad men who have come over the Georgia line from East Tennessee. This stale of things is the natural result of the system of proscription and misrule which has been Inaugurated by the bigoted partizau who now fills the executive chair of that gallant State. While wo regret to learn that these disorders have assumed & charac ter which renders it necessary for the in tervention of military force, for the protec tion of the lives and property of peaceful citizens, wc are pleased to learn that Gov. JtfDlnns has taken prompt measures to meet the emergency. We learn from the Au gusta Chronicle that be has called on General Brannan, in command of the De partment, for a sufficient military force to quell the disturbances in upper Georgia, and that troops have been promptly ordered by that officer to the disturbed district. The Augusta Chronicle says it has the best anthorit yfor saying that the acts of law lessness, reports of which have reached us, have been exclusively confined to the few counties which lie on the Tennessee border, and that the parties chiefly implicated are out-laws from that State. The presence of the U. S. troops will, we trust, give security and protection to the people of the border. But while Brownlow reigns in Tennessee we may look for anarchy, discord and violence. Southern Relief Fair, At a meeting, says the Baltimore Gazette' of the Executive Committee of Ladies, held yesterday, the sum of $108,000 was appro priated to the following States: Virginia t20,000|MlssL»ippi.... North Carolina .... 10,000[Florida South Carolina.... 15,000 Tennessee CieorgJ a 10,000! Arkan sas Alabama 10,0001 Louisiana .Maryland, . S,000j ..$15,000 .. 4,ii00 .. 6,000 .„ 4,00 • .. 6.000 A committee of three ladies was appointed to superintend the distribution for each Stale —a list of whom will be published in a few days. In addition to the appropriations above, about $50,000 will remain as a re served fund in the hands of the Executive Committee to increase the allotment to such States as may require it, and to meet special cases. The result of the Fair has been so far developed as to make it certain that its ag gregate proceeds will not be less than one hundred and sixty thousand dollars. The entire expenses will not exceed three thou sand dollars. The Trade or Boston.—The Boston Traveller says that, with the single exception of Portland, Maine, the entire commerce of New England centers in Boston. Once Salem, Gloucester, Portsmouth, Newberry- port, Newport, Providence and New Haven had an extensive commerce with India, South America, Africa and the West Indies, but it has all departed. Once in two or three months a bark or brig from Africa ar rives at Salem, but that harber is now main ly used for coal schooners aud coasters in the summer time. Gloucester has not a single square-rigged vessel left. The same paper says : “The Southern trade Las completely collapsed, and hardly a single vessel is on Its way hither from New Orleans, Mobile, Savannah or Charleston. Our people have as much cotton on hand as they care about holding, and wish the quan tity lessened rather than increased. These subjects have a neceaaary connec tion or intimate relation. The public debt regulates, In part, the expenditure, the ex penditure the taxes, and the extent oi -taxa tion the currency. What reduces the debt will diminish expenditure, what lessens ex penditure will reduce taxation, and what diminishes taxation will contract the cur rency. The letter from the Chiet Commis sioner of Internal Revenue, published by us yesterday, is an important document. It is doubtless consonant with the views of the Secretary of the Treasury, and it is hoped with those entertained by the Committee of Ways aud Means. The leading proposition of the Commissioner’s letter is, that the Public Debt must not be increased, if we would preserve the public credit and not ma terially check the development of the na- •ional resources. The conclusion is that the debt should be diminished by applying any surplus in the treasury to the redemption of such portion ot that debt as carries interest or admits of conversion into long dated bonds paying a less rite of interest. The public expenditure is being rapidly diminished. There is a limit here that can not be passed. The maintenance of a mili tary force essential to the security of our frontiers, and to the preservation of the pub lic peace, and of a Naval force adequate to the safety of our maritime rights aud inter ests are among the indispensable expenses of the nation. What Congress ba9 most to ap prehend is too expensive a peusion list, aud appropriations for internal improvements, for which there will bo innumerable projects. s relates to taxation, the report of the Revenue Commission affords some instruc tive information. It recommends the greater concentration of the taxes, their diffusion leading to their actual duplication. There are few objects that are excepted from their operation. The reduction of their rate is also strongly recommended. But there is this palpable inconsistency in its conclusions, that while it suggests the repeal or modifica tion of taxes on production, and on the ma terials of manufacture, being as high as twenty per cent on their value, it recom mends an excise on cotton of five cents per pound, which, on a value of ten cents, is fifty per cent—on the ground that it is a tax on consumption and not on production, while allowing a drawback on cloth and yam ex ported, of an equal amount, which, on the assumption that the excise is a tax on ■ the foreign manufacture, is a gratuity out of the public treasury to the domestic manufatnrer. The subject of currency opens a more diffi cult matter for consideration. Its contrac tion most essentially depends on the amount of taxation. A reduction of the circulating WHERE III THE CINCINNATI CHARLESTON rdt-hah j Our Charleston cotemporaries have much to say about “The Cincinnati end Charleston Railroad.” Will they inform us where they get the authority for denominating the pro posed connecting link of railroad between Lexington, Kentucky, and the line of the East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad, “The Cincinnati and Charleston Railroad?" At first we thought that some new project was on foot to unite the great city of the West with our sister city of Charleston, but on reference to the article in the News entitled “The Cin cinnati and Chafleston Railroad Project," we found it to be the same article published by us some days ago, under the heading of'“The Great Southern Railroad," giving an account of the proceedings of a meeting of citizens of Cincinnati for the pappose, as stated by the Chairman of the meeting, of receiving a “report in relation to the construction of ‘ The Southern Rail road,' Ac.” In the report alluded to, the committee gpeak of .the “importance aud value to the city o^Cincinnati and to our (their) respective business and trade of the early construction of a line of railroad from the city of Lexington, Ky. via Nicholasviile and Danville to the East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad at Knoxville and Chatta nooga, or some intermediate point,” but no where in the proceedings of the Cincinnati meeting can we find any mention made of The Cincinnati and Charleston Railroad project.” We allude to this matter in order that our people may not be misled into the idea that the proposed great “SouthernRailroad," de signed to unite the railroad system of the great West with that of the South, and to put Cincinnati in direct communication with the South Atlantic ports, is merely a Cin cinnati and Charleston enterprise, in which Charleston has a more direct interest than Savannah. A railroad connection which would include in its running schedule the Georgia State Railroad, Macon and Western Railroad, the Central Railroad, and the Geor gia Railroad, would be very improperly called “The Cincinnati and Charleston Railroad.” If^tlie Cincinnati meeting, in contemplating the grand scheme ot a direct railroad con nection of their city with the South lost sight By Telegraph.

Appointment of Distributors EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, MiLLSDOKYift-X, Ga., April 33d, 1866. Information has reached this Department that the Managers of the Ladies Southern Belief Society, Baltimore, in the exercise of an abounding and elevated charity, had caused to be shipped to Savan nah, subject to my-order, five hundred barrels, con tabling flour, meal and bacon, "for distribution among our truly poor suffering white people/’ and that they "desire that the appropriation should be so distributed as to afford the greatest relief to the greatest number of the. really deserving poor and suffering women and children;’’ to effect which dis tribution, they have also appropriated the sum of two thousand dollars: And tbe consignees, as well as the Presidents of the Central and Atlantic and Gulf Bail- roads. having generously offered to aid the enterprise by personal service, and by transportation free of charge (as other persons and Presidents of Railroads doubtless will do); for the purpose, therefore, of dis- tribting in Congressional Districts, as the most eligi Of Geoigia and her flourishing seaDOrt thpv ble P rimar r divisions of the 'State, they being organ . # ® ^ * lu v I ized with a view to the nearest attainable equality in medium to its normal condition, (should be tween two and three hundred millions be collected by internal taxation) would be im practicable. Let us suppose that four hun dred millions of dollars will suffice for our domestic exchanges, what is to absorb the issues of the National banks, consisting of between two and three hundred millions, the issues of the government between four and five hundred, and the outstanding currency of the former State banka, making in the ag gregate nearly eight hundred millions of dol lars ? A part of the excess beyond four hun dred millions, it is evident, will be required for the payment of between two and three hundred millions of internal taxation. The dependence of the amount or volume of the currency on the extent of taxation will be im mediately perceived from this statement. The moat extravagant expectation are en tertained in relation to a speedy return to speoie payments.

This resolution is supposed to have reference to aiding the Mexicans iu expell ing Maximilian. Important to the Mexican Liberals. The Attorney General of the United States has officially declared that in his opinion the recent military order of General McDowell, in reference to 'our neutrality on the Mexi can frontier, cannot apply to the transporta tion of arms and munitions of war by mer chants and traders. Neutrals as well as bel ligerents have their rights, but neutrals in their traffic with belligerents must take their chances. They are like blockade runners, and the government from which they go does not interfere either to .stop them or pro tect them. No Further- Gases of Cholera.—The cholera panic at New York has -nearly died out. No new cases are reported, and the people have concluded not to allow them selves to be frightened to death. Some of the papers are a little severe on Governor Fenton for the haste he exhibited in issuing the proclamation of peril. It is said a vast amount of trade has been kept away from the city. The Health Commissioners continue to hold regular sessions. Fifteen of the Judges of election in Somer set county, Maryland, have been indicted for violation of the Registry law. At tbe last election, the list of voters returned by the Registers of that county was entirely disre garded, and all the rebels iu the county al lowed to vote. By this means Mr. Franklin had the largest number of votes for Circuit Judge, but the Legislature settled that mat-' ter right by ousting Mr. Franklin and secur ing the position to Mr. Spence, the choice of the loyal people of the District. The Spanmh-Chilian Imbroglio. — A Washington letter says it is reported here to-day, on very good authority, that the Spanish Minister, in accordance with in structions from kit government, has pro posed to the authorities here to accept the mediation of the United States Government in the gpanish-Chilian complication, and to refer the claims of Spain to our Government for arbitration, and abide by the decision. months is suggested, stituted years for months, hs would have made a nearer approximation to the truth. He has stated as one of the reasons of a speedy recovory of the standard, the fall in the value of gold from 180 to 130. He calls this a pro gressive fall, but offers no proof that it will decend to par, unless taxation is greatly re duced and other circumstances favor resump tion. the Gentile community-, this murder was in 1 v. , 7 ... .

Probst, the brutal murderer otthe D earing family,near Philadelphia, has been fop ndlEna B ty ot tbe murder of Mr. Dealing. His «£n. fesaioa was not gtean to tbe jury, whosever diet is based upon the strong circumstantial evidence of his guilt There is one obstacle to resumption which the writers on the side of speedy resump tion strangely overlook. It is the impedi ment which the fractional currency presents to that measure. The United States have employed at every period of suspension of specie payment a paper currency of small bills to a greater extent than any other country that baa recourse to paper money. This renders any comparison between the United States and such countries fallacious and unsafe. England never employed notes of a lower denomination than £1 and £2 during the suspension by the Bank of England in 1797- Scotland has always used paper money, but her notes were never less than j£l. The extensive employment of small notes in retail transactions, and in payment of wages renders specie Indispensably neces sary in a return to specie payments. We cannot measure the wants of Recir culation by the numerical amount of the cur rency alone, but by that amount combined with the velocity of tbe circulation. Small notes circulate with much greater rapidity than large oneST There are many modes of economizing the use of paper money in large payments. The substitution of checks and the operations of the clearing bouse, by which offsets are effected, are favorite modes in use in all commercial countries. But for minute transactions in trade credit finds tittle or no place. The interference of Congress in devising the course to be pursued iu this desirable consummation of specie payments is to be deprecated, except to undo what has been improperly done. Among the improper in terferences of that body was rendering the duties on imports payable in gold, instead ol being made payable in currency, and one of tbe first steps should be to make, as nearly as possible, all branches of the revenue pay able in tbe same circulating medium until re sumption takes place. The only plausible reason that could have been urged for making the duties on imports, payable in gold, was that the Treasury should possess ample meauB for discharging the interest on that por tion of the public debt payable in gold; but the amount lyipg in the Treasuiy on which interest has been lost, has been, at least, on an average fifty millions of dollars, in excess of the in terest payable in coin. The highest sum re ceivable lor duties is estimated at one hun dred and fifty millions of dollars. Seventy- fiva, per cent, of this amount payable in cur rency, and twenty-five per cent, in gold is as large a proportion in this metal as will be re- Si’btvo Publications.—Mr. Oarlotoo. oi New York, will shortly publish “Recoin mended, to Mercy,” au English novel of a rather peculiar character, which attracted considerable attentiou when it originally ap pears i; "Josh Billings—His Book,” anothei collection of American humor, so absurdly in Y°n ut: just at present; and “Adrift iu Dixie,” a volume of Southern travel, bv Edmund Kirke.
