DEATH OF Dr. T. 11. t.IPEKSi,
Vie learn from the Florida pipers, that
I)r. T. 11. Capers died on the night of the
15th instant, of Carbuncle on the neck.

Circuit, and no man, says the Floridian,
enjoyed the love and esteem of his flock, to
a greater degree than he did. Dr. Capers
was well kuovvn in Thomasville, where he
was pastor of the Methodist Church during
the year 1.865. II is friends here deeply
regret his death, and tender their heart
felt sympathy to his bereaved family. ■

have tested this ourself, and find it to be
all It has been represented to be. “Ho

THE NORTHERN ERECTIONS.
Election reports from the States of Penn
sylvania, Ohio, Indiana. lowa aud Michi
gan, show that the Radicals have carried
all these States ; but the Northern Conser
vative papers tell us, that notwithstanding
the Radical majorities, the Conservatives
or Democrats, are greatly encouraged,, by
the fact, tiiat so far from having lost in the
fierce struggle, they have greatly reduced
the Radical majorities, despite the enor
mous expenditure of money by the Radi
cals to carry the elections. . Iti Pennsyl
vania. the chief point of the struggle, the
Radical majority is represented at less
than 10,000, showing a clear loss of 12,600
votes. The Radicals in that State, also
■elected a majority of the Legislature, and
the Conservatives will feel the loss.of Mr.
Cowan, U. S. Senator, whose time will ex
pire on the fourth of March nest.
In Ohio, the Radical majority is very
large, but it is said, not so large a? in
1864. The Radical majority in Indiana is
set down at from 12 to 15,000, while lowa
and Michigan were nearly all on one-side.
From these figures it is argued that the
President’s policy is sustained by the peo
ple, and that the- country ought to feel en
couraged. Tire leading Democratic pa
pers of New York believe, that wlieu the
official reports of the elections arc obtained
from all the States,they will show a Demo
cratic gait), and assures us that the results
of the recent elections were as favorable to
the President's policy, ns we had a right
to expect, and adds, that it is now demon
strated, that the strength of the two par
ties in the most, populous States is so
nearly balanced, as to relieve the public
mind of it]>prilkcntion arising from the danger
of Fadieal measures. So long as one-half
of the Northern people arc opposed to
confiscation, hanging and disfranchise
ment, the South has nothing to fear. So
far, the elections show, that the Radicals
constitute less thau one-third of the popula
tion of the United States, and yet they
arrogate to themselves the government of
the whole. In a conflict of arms their
weakness would soon appear. We don’t
think note, dial they will impeach the Pre
sident,
Tilt.4l. OF till. DAVIS.
Tli correspondence between the Presi
dent, the Attorney General, and the United
States At'ovney fur the District of Vir
ginia, relating to the trial of Mr. Davis,
has been published, and is a clear and full
exposition of the whole affair. It shows
that O’ ief Justice Chase has had it in his
power for months to try the great prisoner,
but for reasons best known to himself has
declined to do so. The President has been
auxioup for the trial—Mr.- Davis also, and

lion.-Charles J. Scott if Willcox County,

Hob. Keverdy Johnson, one of the greatest
constitutional'lawyers in the United States,
to the following effect: .
lu’ your opinion, is -the act of Congress
’ imposing a three cents tax- on cotton con
stitutional ? And would .the Supreme
, Court of the United States so decide in the
’ event the question Was carried before it
! for adjudication ? . .-

Dear Sir :—Your note.'o.f. the. 3d, is re*
c-eived here- The q-uestiou you ‘have put
Jtome I have heretofore cQusidered. ‘My

is unconstitutional, and I b-elie-ve the

RADICAL. atOEDIEISN DISWATI*-
JTEO,
A Fittsburg correspondent of the N. Y.
Herald says the Radical Soldiers -are great -
i ly displeased with Spoon Butler’s declura
. tion, that more would be required of the
’ South than the adoption of the Coustitu
i tional Amendment, and declares that they
will not support his measures.
I The N. Y. Evenmng Post, also, an iufluen
; tial Radical paper, sees danger in the con
[ tinued leadership of Thud. Stephens, and
calls on the Tribune to know whether it in
tends to continue its support of him as
leader of the House. The l‘ost says the
Republican party knows the policy of Ste
vens will ruin its prospects, if forced up
on it, aud the people are solictous to know
whether the Tribune and Other leaders are.
determined on that course.’
“THE LOYAL GOVERNORS.”
The Governors of the Northern States
are purchasing arms. Their agents are
l silently moving about and buying up all
, the arms offered for sale in the markets:
B~ownlow has promised to inaugurate civil
war in Tennessee, on the constitutional
amendment question and this is to be the
signal for openly arming against the
South.

[FOR THE SOUTHEII.X ENTERPRISE.]
Editor Enterprise: — Dear Sir: —Please
i permit me to inform the Tax Payers of the
25th Division, particularly of Thomas
County, through the columns of your pa
i per, that a stern sense of duty, from which
j there is no escape short of a violation of
; ray oath of office, or a resignation thereof,
I has compelled me, since the completion of
my “Annual List” for 18G5, on the 31st
of August, to assess the income of a num
ber of persons in this Town and County,
“on the best information obtained,” and
add twenty-five per cent, to amount of tax
and forward for collection. All defaulters
in my Division are being treated in this
way, and the assessments forwarded
j monthly. There is still an opportunity
for those who have not already been as
sessed, to make returns and save twenty
five per. cent.
