THURSDAY, AUGUST 28, 1873. END OF THE TBIKD VOLUME. With this issuo ends the thitd volume of Ths Expositor. While it* publication has been with us a work of pleasure, it has not been ono of profit—owing solely to the foot that we trusted too much to the honor of -tnaify who “subscribed to pay in the tall when they sold their ootton.” But in the future we expect it to pay better —and soicly from the fact that we intend to in ad vance for the paper , or keep the material unprinted on hand. The cash system is the only one that will pay—it is the only system that will keep alive any enterprise. A man who is too stingy to subscribe to a paper should certainly be ashamed to borrow one, and sub scribers should have the manliness to refuse to lend him one; a man who is. too poor to subscribe, we will give him •no ; but a man who is mean enough tt> steal one should be an outcast from society —an object at which to point the finger of scorn. And to subscribe at tome have done , taking advantage of an honest offer of proof only—such as we made three years ago—is among the meanest thefts of which a man can be guilty. % We have often asked delinquents to “come up and settle,” but we shall ask mo more — we shall add no new ones to our list, and will “go to law' 1 with the •Id, for we can not afford to lose what is due us. If subscribers whose year expires with this number desire to continue taking the paper, they should give us notice between this and our next issue—pay ment for the same will be the only notice ueoessary. Without this prerequisite, applications for continuation may as well not be made for the good they will accomplish. With grateful thanks to all who have promptly stood by us, and au earnest .solicitation that they will continue so to stand, we drop the curtain upon our third year’s existence, with the deter mination to more than ever merit, in the future, the confidence and support of honest men. Louisville Industrial Exposition. —The second National Industrial Ex position at Louisville opens on the se cond of September next. In an invi tation extended to the editor of this pa per we learn that the Directors of the Exposition have perfected every ar rangement necessary to making the dis play the grandest and most varied ever seen in this country. Those who at tended the Louisville Exposition last year can recall the pleasure and sur prise which they felt on entering the waet building, filled with its treasures of Art, Industry, Mechanism, Handi work, and Scientific collections. We •re promised this year even a greater and more attractive display. Antici pating this, no one can afford to forego the enjoyment of speeding a day or more in the Louisville Exposition. Re duced rates by Railroad and River have been secured, which will enable parties to visit the Exposition at com paratively small expense. The increas ed hotel accommodations and traveling facilities in Louisville, together with the natural attractions of the city will make a visit to that place in Septem ber or October both pleasant and pro fitable. Imperialism. —A Washington tele gram of August 16, says: “Judge Durell, of Louisiana, is here attempting to arrange some possible basis of com promise of the legislative aflfcirs of that State with the Attorney General. It M represented that a compromise be tween the two factions has been agreed upon, whereby there will henceforth be but one Legislature, composed of the members of both former bodies whose elections wore not contested.” The speetaole Of a Federal Judge and a Federal Attorney General deciding as to who shall not constitute members of • State Legislature is refreshing, in a Republican Government! Jbree fatal aocidents from drunken - am arc reported from Louisville. King Alcohols claiming more than his usual fbare of Twtwps, THE CONDITION OF LOUISIANA. Letter from lion. John McEnery. Tn response to a communication from the citizens of Monroe as to the proper courso to be pursued regarding Louis iana affairs, Mr. John McEnery writes a letter .udvising Jhe calling of a State convention in I'eccniber, and the ap pointment of a committee to appeal to Congress. After reviewing the course of events in Louisiana the past year, Mr. McKn ery says the preseut deplorable condi tion of the State demands for her rescue from oertain suffering the’ adoption of ono of two remedies—cither the rescue of her goverment from ignorance and corruption pervading almost every de partment, by the united action of the United States, or the utter surrender of the State to the Federal government, trusting that the government may insti tute an honest government that will spare the people confiscation of their proporty, now gradually going on, and consequent iue’vitablc bankruptcy and ruin. To any one educated in the theory and genius of our government, the lat ter alternative is bard to accept, but any government promising a better fu ture, however irregularly instituted, is preferable to one promising certain im poverishment and general bankruptcy. When people find themselves surround ed as we arc by desperate and straiten ed circumstances, commerce decaying, agriculture demoralized, capital with Mercurial wings in flight, real estate depressed and depreciated fifty per cent, since Kellogg’s rule, and in fact all values on a decline, and all this in a State of boundless resources, and simply and alone due to the fact of bad, dis honest and illegitimate government, possessing neither the confidence of the people at home or abroad, it is natural they will accept relief from any hand that extends it, and will not stop to in quire as to the regularity or the irregu larity of the authority exercised. But I hope that fate is not so impe rious that wc shall be driven to accept so desperate a remedy. Let us hope better of thase who hold our destiny in their hands. Let us appeal earnestly to Congress, trusting that honorable body, casting aside all political preju dice and party rule, will do simple jus tice to a much wronged and injured people. * WATER POWER AT AUGUSTA, GA. Mayor Estes, of Augusta, Ga., now in New York, represents the enlarge ment water power there as in a condi tion that promises complete success. Years ago it was belioved by practical men that enlarging the Augusta canal to a point on the Savannah river, above the city of Augusta, would,. by econo mizing the water, power in the rapids, give a supply for mills that would large ly benefit the manufacturing capacity of the place. At present they have 1,- 100 horse power, with a fall of water 26 feet in two falls, on a seven canal. All this is used in the city by the Augusta factory and five flour mills, iron foundries, etc. The enlargement of the canal as p~oposed will change it from 45 feet wide and 7 feet deep to 150 feet wide and 11 feet deep. This, it i estimated, will furnish at least 11,- 000 horse power, and at a moderate es timate 13,500 horse power.. It is in tended that this water power eball be used just outside the city at from 30 to 45 feet fall, thus utilizing all the force of the water. As the laws of Georgia exempt cottoD and woolen factories from taxation (State and municipal,) for ten years, it is believed that advantages of the canal enlargement will be taken up even before tbe work is fully completed. The engineer in charge estimates and the contractor promises that 2,000 horse power shall be ready for use by Janu ary next, and that by March, 1875, the entire work will be finished. The amount of money expended on the im provement up to the first of August was $250,000 This completes and pays for one-half the work. Newport, Rhode Island, with a popu - lation of 13,000, claims real estate to the value of $17,654,600 and personal property valued at $9,832,900, making a total of $26,487,500.’ This gives an average of more than $2,000 to each inhabitant. As there is no business dene in Newport except that of keep ing boarding houses and staring at the shoddyites who go there to squander their money and exhibit their fine clothes and equipages, this showing is a little aheadjof that of any town of its size in the country. [From the Sav. Advertiser & Republican.] DECISION OF THE SUPREME COURT. An Important Matter Settled. A decision of the Supromc Court of the State of Georgia rendered on Satur day last will bo read with much inter est by those of our merchants dealing in malt liquors. The case isnsfollows, and wo preßout in briefly, mention of it having been made in these columns at the time it was btforo tho lower court. In tho the early part of June last E. It. Schneider and other dealors in malt liquors in tho city of Augusta, applied to Judge Gibson of tho Superior Court of Richmond county for an injunction restraining Juo A. Bolder, Tax Collec tor of Richmond county, from collect ing the tax of two hundred and fifty dollars imposed by the General Assem bly at its last session upon all whole sale dealers in malt liquors. Thequcstion as to who are wholesale dealers it will bo recollected, was submitted to the Comp troller General, who decided that all who sell malt liquors by tho cask are whole sale dealers in the meaning of tho act.” The parties above mentioned, consid ering the law both illegal and unjust, nppealod for an injunction, as above stated, and the grounds of complaint were set forth as follows : Ist. Complainants deny being whole sale dealers in the proper sense of the term. 2d. The act is unconstitutional and void, because, though called a license tax, it is in fact a tax upon property, and should be uniform and ad valorem. 3d. Even if it is a special tax, it is not a tax levied under circumstances authorized by the Constitution, viz: for educational purposes. 4th. That even if it ia special tax and levied for educational purposes, it is still unconstitutional, in that it is not ad valorem , for the Constitution, while it does not require special taxes to be uniform, does require them to bo ad valorem. sth. That the tax Collector is seek ing to enforce such aet for a time when it is not obligatory upon the inhabi tants of this State. 6th. That if it is a license tax im posed as a police regulation, that au thority is conferred upon tho city alone. The injunction prayed for was grant ed by Judge Gibson, but the counsel for the City Council of Augusta, and for the Tax Collector of the county, excepted to the decision, and the case was carried up to the Supreme Court. This tribuual, it will be seen, has re versed the decision of Judge Gibson, as follows : John A. Bohler, T. C., tb. E. R. Schneider. * Injunction froth Richmond. Tiiippe, J.. 1. The act approved 20th February 1873, imposing a special tax on whole sale dealers in malt liquoos, is not in violation of the 27th section, of articlo 1, of the Constitution of tbo State, which says “taxation on pioperty shall be ad valorem only, and uniform on all species of property taxed.” 2. Such a tax is a tax on a business occupation or calling, as decided in Burch vs. Mayor and Aldermen of Savannah, 42 Ga., 596; and hence is not a tax on the sale of liquors, which, by the sth section of article 6 of the Constitution, may be assessed for educa tional purposes. 3. A tax levied on such wholesale dealers is not void for uncertainty, on the ground that the law nowhere defines what constitutes a wholesale dealer.— That is a fact to be determined like all other facts, as for instance, whether the party taxed as a practicing attorney or owner of certain property, is such at torney or owner. It may be ascertain ed in cases arising under the provisions of section 4 of the Code, by means of experts in such business, and other proper evidence. The question t whether the porson so taxed is a wholesale deal er canuot be raised on a bill to enjoin a tax collector from collecting a tax so assessed. Judgment reversed.

Thoir proprietors have made fortunos, not so much from the curative powers and virtuosof (heir mixtures, us from the notoriety given them by advertising, by which peopio were made to believe all the good that-was said of them. A preparation is now before tho public, which is becoming very popular, and is known as Bradfield’s Female Regulator, put up by L. 11. Bradfiold, of Atlanta, Ga., at $1.60 per bottle. Such is its curative virtues that it has gained wide-spread populari ty all over the country ivhcrb it has becu made known, and it is being introduced everywhere. We aro informed that immense quantities of this medicine aro being sold in all sections of the South and Southwest, especially in the city of New Orleans and in Texas.
