LAMEST SIMULATION IN TNE SITV AND COUNTY
FRIDAY, JUKE 8, 1866.
To oun Country Friends.—As much interest, is
It throughout the country in regard to the pros
pects of the cotton and other crops we will be grate
ful to our planting friends and others in the interior
for into relation on that subject. Those who have op
portunities for obtaining valuable information in
regard to the growing crops, the working of the free-
labor system, and kindred matters, of general interost,
will confer a favor by communicating the same to us.
Cholera and Yellow Fever at New
York —At the New York Quarantine there
twenty-six new cases oi cholera on
Saturday, and twelve deaths. The whole
number of cholera cases iu hospital Satur
day night was one hundred and four, ex
clusive of the twelve dead just mentioned.
Tho health officer, in liis report, says that the
number of patients is rapidly on the increase,
and that the mortality in hospital is also in
creasing, a large number of the cases sent
there being moribund. “Every foot of room
on the hospital ship is occupied by tho sick
and dying," and “the sickness on the Pe
ruvian largely on the increase, and unless
wc can transfer her passengers to some
other place they must mostly die.”
The Health officer (so-cal'ed) from whom
wc quoted above, also states that a brig iias
arrived from theWest Indies bringing a yellow
fever patient, and having lost two of her
crew with the disease on the. trip. The
doctor says he does not know what to do
with the yellow fever patient, as every place
is full of cholera patients.
The following little cotton item is given by
the Washington special of the St. Louis
Democrat: “It is understood that the Go
vernment will lose between $100,000 and
$500,000 by the operations of cotton specu
lators at Memphis. The tact has been de
veloped that upwards of $400,000 worth of
Government money by some meaus was
placed, last summer, in the hands of a man
named Carleton, and by him used iu the
purchase of cotton, which was then selling
at seventy cents The cotton was consigned
to a firm in New York for sale, when the
price of the article suddenly fe'Nto forty-five
cents, and the result was that tii,e firm failed
and the Government lost nearljNjoOO.OOO.
Considerable cariosity is manifested to learn
by whose direction and by what authority
the money was placed in Carleton’s hands
for such investments.”
The United States land tax now being col
lected, is for the year 1861. After that year
the law was repealed, and no real estate tax
act has since been passed. The tax for 18C1
is one-third of one per cent—or three dol
lars thirty-three and one-third cents on the
thousand dollars—and ns we slated a few
days'ago—is based on the assessment made
by the State In 1860. The law exempts, from
taxation, homesteads of the value of five hun
dred dollars and under. Hence, any one whose
land is hot worth more than five hundred dol
lars pays no tax at all.
There is at least one hope of a better state
of things at the North. The strongest men
in the Republican party are remonstrating,
earnestly, against the action of the radicals
in Congress. Judge Comstock, of New York >
has spoken strongly against it, and Gen.
Mnrtindale, Attorney General of that State,
says, iu a letter to Senator Sherman: “The
ia pSIC'Uy Cud nf.fiSe ot Repre
sentatives involves the surrender of impor
tant principles, and will be resisted. , The
Union party will split upon it if it shall re
ceive the sanction of Congress.”
A Novel Enterprise.—The Pennsylvania
Railroad has now under way a novel cuter
prise. They have employed a first-class
photographer to superintend the photograph
ing of All the property of the company and
<the various points of interest or of beauty
along the main line and all its branches, Imv
ing placed at the disposal of the artist a train
of cars, fully officered, lor the work.
RESTRICTION OF
PO
As on* of the unhappy C0nsequence* of the
contest which haaarisen Retwfaat the execu
tive and legislative Iwanahes of the Govern
ment js thejnalicioua disposition manifested
Viy the latter to abridge the powers of the
former, the unscrupulous leaders of the
Radical party, who for purposes of their own
are seeking to bring about the centralization
of all poorer in Congress, which they expect
to control'for an indefinite period, do not
hesitate^ to disseminate the idea that Mr.
Johnson is only waiting for the adjournment
of that body, wh*i he intends to begin a
general expulsion from office of all who will
not sustain his method of restoration. In
their eagerness to trench upon the constitu
tional prerogatives of the President, they
passed in the Senate a few days since a re
striction for this end, by incorporating a
clause in an appropriation bill forbidding the
payment of Federal officers who might be ap
pointed during -the recess of Congress to suc
ceed Radical incumbents removed for any
great cause; but the outrage was so glaring that
they hastened to reconsider the matter, and
the restriction was rejected. Still intent,
however, upon the accomplishment of then-
purpose, Mi 1 . Henderson, of Missouri, subse
quently introduced a bill which prohibits the
removal of any man from office by the Presi
dent, except by consent of the Senate. Even
in cases of misconduct during tho recess ol
the Senate, the President is only by this bill
to suspend from office, and report to the
Senate when it meets; and if that body fail
to approve the suspension, or to confirm the
nomination of a successor within thirty days,
the person is to resume his office. No va
cancy is to be recognized as happening during
the recess, unless it shall occur by “death,
resignation, expiration of term, or other ca
sualty not depending on the will or action of
the President.”
There have not been' wanting attempts be
fore to question the right of the President to
exercise the powers of removal and appoint
ment during the recess of Congress, and to
limit these powers, but such attempts have
always been political in their character, the
results of party strife, and evidently intended,
as in the present instance, more to serve
party interests than to promote the great
ends for which a national government was
instituted.
The third and most formidable attempt at
a reduction of the patronage of the President
is the one now before Congress, which pro
poses a complete transfer of the appointing
power from the President—where it has
lodged since the foundation of the Govern
ment who is responsible, to Senators and
combinations of Senators, who are irrespon
sible. It is only when the majority in Con
gress finds itself iu opposition to the Execu
tive that any objection is made to the unre
strained use by the latter of the removing
and appointing power. Whilst it cannot be
denied that appointment to office should be
made solely with a view to the interests of
the public service, it is equally true that the
President, who alone is responsible for the
execution of the laws, would be impotent iu
his executive character unless he is allowed
to select his own instruments, and clothed
with power to control them. Responsibility
and authority necessarily go together, and it
is repugnant to natural justice and incon
sistent with the well settled practice of the
Government, to exact the one without ac
cording the other. This is a proposition so
self-evident that to discuss it would be a use
less consumption of time.

Richmond, Juno 7, P. M.—In the United States
District Court to-day the Grand Jury presented
several true bills. The Judge warned them against
revealing the proceedings of their body, and said the
names of parties indicted could not be made public
until their apprehension. It is believed that several
prominent officials ol the late Confederate Govern

Fisticuffs.—The Memphis Appeal of Fri
day says: “We learn a difficulty occurred
ai the Gayoso house, last evemng, between
General Fisk, of the bureau, and a gentle
man named Ridgelcy, which resulted in a
resort to fisticuffs, from which the general
was abouj, coming out second best, when
three negro soldiers interfered and turned
the scale in Ills favor. We were informed
Mr. Ridgeley will publish a statement of the
affair in a morning cotemporary, over his

Mr. Albert. Elmore was at the same time
confirmed as Collector of Mobile.
The Truth Told by a Radical.—The Rev
R. J. Breckeuridge, of Kentucky, says the
Philadelphia Age, distinguished during the
war as one of the most active pulpit champi
ons of the Federal cause, and temporary Presi
dent of the Baltimore Convention which re
nominated Mr. Lincoln, has recently written
a letter concerning the future of the blacks
to the Northwestern Presbyterian, in which
we find this paragraph:
“The great danger of this people is, that
they will gradaally waste away in the strug
gle they have now to make in competition
with the stronger race for the means
of existence—a danger in the face of which
exorbitant and unprecedented claims on
their behalf are as melancholy as they are
preposterous.”
THE OVERFLOW OF THE MISSISSIP
PI—AN APPEAL FOR HELP.
The New Orleans Picayune, in an article
appealing for financial assistance to repair
the broken levees on the Mississipi and Red
Rivers, states that a district of country equal
in area to some of the largft States of the
Union is now the immediate subject of the
nvertiyiw. .<ikO”‘V*L : rrtitr : t>r : tut ftrV'lSnTTS'iu
Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana are now
under water, and the greater part of the
residue is menaced with overflow from the
immense breaks already made in the levees
The possible consequence wf this may be,
without timely assistance from abroad, the
loss to the United States of fully a third of
its cotton crops and almost all of its sugar.
The loss already sustained is enormous, and
the destruction and suffering of a large
number of the inhabitants, who have been
driven from their homes by the expansion
of the water, is of the most distressing
character.
The Picayune, in the presence ol this ter
rible calamity, appeals to the press of the
commercial cities of the Union, and through
them to the Chamber of Commerce and
the municipal authorities of their cities, to
call attention to the request made by the
Chamber of Commerce of New Orleans for
their co-operation in the oflort made to in
duce Congress to save the lives and property
ol the vast population which is engaged in
tho culture of the alluvial lands of the Valley
of the Mississippi. As, says the same paper,
this is the great highway of the nation; as
its products and the markets it furnishes to
the lest of the country form one of the chief
sources of the nati on’s wealth; as the N§rth
and West, as well as the Sonth, and not the
white men only, but the negroes also, are
interested vitally and directly in the perma
nent rebuilding of the levees, we trust thut
this appeal for National aid will be seconded
by all, North and West, as well as South,
and that aid will be freely accorded by Con
gress.
Washington, June 7, P. M.—TLe proceeding! to
day in Congress are unimportant. Mr. Davis, of Ken-
tucky, addressed the Senate against the reconstruction
bill, and denounced the policy of the radicals. The
radicals will endeavor to force a vote on their mea
sure this week. There is no doubt of its passage by
the required two-thirds vote.
The Commissioner of Internal Revenue decides that
interest and dividends derived from stocks are re
garded as income derived from fixed investments,
without reference to the time during which these
stocks arc held; but when gains are derived from the
sale of stocks involving interest received or accrued,
bucli gains may be regarded as derived from business
alone. The value of property used in business, less
the amount of insurance, may be deducted when lost
from gains and profit of business.

New York, June 7, P. M.—Seguin’s Point has been

habitants of the Point.

A New Cooking Stove.—We call the atten

It is strongly recommended for durability,
dispatch, convenience, economy and beauty.
Particulars are given in the advertisement.
The Fenian Flag—The Fenlati flag, which has
been designed for the armies of liberation, is thus de
scribed by the New York World: “A white harp on a
green field; thirteen lateral stripes, seven red and six
white. The difference between the Fenian and tho
United States flag consists in the substitution in the
former of a harp for thathirty-alx stars. and of a green-
for the blue field. The length of the ensign is one-
third greater than its breadth. Those who have seen
ths flag pronounce it a very handsome banner."

Street Railroads.
Mr. Editor:—In your locals this morning
you spoke of our city railroads, and said they
were to be built at once, Ac. Now we want
the railroads, and trust they will be built;
but we understand the charter says they
must be beyun before the middle of June, but
can be ten years in building—a fine thing to
start it by a few shovelsfhli of earth thrown
out, and then stop until the charter can be
sold out, if that were the intention of its pro
moters.
We understood when' the charter was
granted that it was to be submitted to the
people of Savannah to say whether they
agreed to it, and as it has not been so left to
them as yet, we would like to know if we are
right or not. Can yon tell us ?
We want the railroad, as I said; but we do
not want any gammon about it, and if to be
built let it be done at once. Give us light.

Affairs in Augusta, Georgia.
To the EdVor of ‘.he Army and Navy Journal:
Sin—My attention haa- been called to an article in
the New York Tribune of May lOth, which does gross
injustice to Gaus. Brannan and Tillsou. The mistake
the Tribune makes is in crediting the reports of the
Loyal Georgian, a paper professedly devoted to tho
interest* of the freodmen, but actually used by J. E.
Bryant, ex-Captaiu United States Volunteers, ex-Aa-
siutuut Commissioner Freedmen’s Bureau, now Attor-
ney-at-Law, Freedmen’s Counsellor, and Editor-in-
chief for his own advancement.
Recently returned from Augusta, Ga., and cognizant
of the facts iu the recent attempt to decorate the
graves of our soldiers, I canuot remain silent while so
untruthful au account is current. While no one will
question that there are many outrages committed
daily at the South, insults oflered to the liviug as well
as the dead, it is our duty to he just.
The graves of the rebel dead were decorated on tho
26tli ot April. On that night the lady teachers. of
freedmen’s schools being together, one of them re
marked, -Let. us get up a celebration ; have our
scholars bring flowers, go in procession, and decorate
our sobers’ graves. We’ll see how the rebels will like
that." The ladies present favored the project, and ail
agreed to request their scholars to briug flowers and
unite in doing honor to the dead on the 28th of April.
Next day in all the schools the schoehrs were invited
to bring flowers, and strictly enjoined not to
mention the purpose for which they were intended,
it could not be kept quiet, however, and many hornets
were made of how they’d take down tho pride of the
rebels. It naturally excited much feeling, and the
Mayor accidently hearing of it, called upon Generals
Brannan and Tillaon to confer with them. He told
them of the proposed celebration; that it had already
occasioned ill feeling, and he feared would cause
trouhje, and asked if it could not be postponed; that if
they would wait a fortnight he would hinself assist in
decorating the graves of Union soldiers. Whether in
tended us an insoKtotiMaftiaeas or mot, the proposed
celebration was caasidUred as snch. General Tillson

the city decorated the graves. Y’ou saw how it was
done. They brought their servants to carry tho bas
kets of flowers. You can do as they did: the ladies
can enter with a sufficient number of servants to
carry the flowers, but no procession can enter the
gates.” Mr. Eberhart returned to the chorda and re
ported tho result of the interview. The achmoradtou
sang -The Battle Cry of Freedom," (probablyto add
to the solemnity ot the acoauon, and "conciliate"
the rebels), commenced fifing out of the church,
and moved toward the cemetery, Captain Bryant and
Mr. Eberhart on the Bidewalk in advance. As they
approached, the Mayor said, -Please designate the
tints, unn wisih in on (or *’ Ifn
gate you wieh to enter.” Mr. Eberhart did so, and
the Mayor ordered the gate-keeper to be ready to open
it. The procession was a very large one, extending
from the cemetery to the church When it halted the
Mayor said: “Ladtea, plssstr detegfiat. the servants
you wish to accompany you, and I .will order the gate
thrown open.” - "Oh, but we want them all," one re
plied;. ‘tali have flowers.” The Mayer replied that
could not be, and that he thought the matter was fully
understood. Captain Bryant remarkedythey might
compromise the mattp; to which tIraMagj* replied
Nates for the ladies in themumner designated, but the
procession could not on tar. Throughout thajite-
view the Mayor, James T. Gardiner,
