To Col. Pulaski S. Holt.
We notice in the Telegraph of ihe 29tli u't. a
communication from you addressed to tlie Grand
Jury of Houston county for the April adjourned
Term, in which you have been pleased tc ray, that
you are, by our Presentments, “placed in an unen
viable po.-ition before our community and the
county at large,” and you arc so exceedingly kind
and charitable to ascribe our action to our ignO'
ranee of ihe law and our duty as Jurors.
It is not to be supposed, that a Grand Jury, chosen
indiscriminately fromninongourcitizens, eompo
of farmers, merchants, mechanics and oversee
(hou]d understand the law, when Judges and Law
yers, who make it their study and the business
their whole lives, so often disagice-t-so many de
cisions from our most cinineut jurists are carrici
up to higher tribunals and reversed, and oven our
uprcuie Court, wise and skillful in the law, re
verses preceding decision.
You say, and “without fear of successful contra
diction, that I am not a defaulting tax payer
said county." Perhaps it may bo well enough
enquire what is a defaulting tax payer. We may
differ in our opinions upon that question. Did you
make a return of your taxable property in the coun
ty of Houston for the year 1867 ? Have you paid
the Tax Collector the amount assessed against you
by tho Receiver for tho same year ? If ro, then the
Jury are surely all wrong—and you have been
treated badly. Why is it then, that the Tax Col
lector still has remaining in his hands a fi fa for up
wards of One Hundred Dollars t There must be
some failure, or error somewhere—eitherin you or
that officer, and the Grand Jury certainly are noi
to be blamed for this, ignorant of their duty and
u ilearned in the law as they may be.
Upon reference to our Tax Books, we have as
certained tlie fact, that you have been returned as
a defaulter, the following years, viz: in 1853,^64
'45 and '67, and perhaps in the year 1866, as we
had no means of learning the fact, for the Tax
Book for that year was not before us; and from
the statement of facts, it appears this is not the
first time “that you, from Providential causes, were
not able tJ attend iu person, to render your return
to the Tax Receiver, and that your agent tailed to
do so.” You lmve been peculiarly unfortunate,
and we pity you. Who erer heard of a Grand Ju
ry, after being discharged, and the Court adjourn
ed, for which they were chosen and sworn, rc-as-
sembling and transacting business of any kind
whatever? Who has the authority to call them
together ? and where is the law giving them pow
cr to do or undo what they have or have uot done ?
We still plead ignorance, and will have to give yon
the trouble to cite us to tho Book, the statute and
page
You have referred us to the Act of the Legisla
ture passed in the year 1849, to be found in Cobb’s
Digest, page 1078. We will now. no lawyers as
we are, take the liberty of calling your attention
to the Acts of the General Assembly of the State
of Georgia, for the years 1851-’62, which you will
find on page 290, Section 9—“That the Receivers
of the tax returns in each county, shall receive all
returns to him on the oaths of tho persons making
them, and at such valuation as they may affix, and
if any person shall foil to make a return, or to affix
a value, the Receiver shall make such valuation,
and assess the tax thereon, from the best infor
mation in bis power to obtain, and in cases when
no return is made, or no valuation made by the
jrfsrson returning, he shall assess a double tax.”
And on page 29 i, of the Acts of the same year, and
pat t of the same Act, Section 22, you will find—
“That all laws and parts of laws militating against
this Act, except such parts of the Tax Acts uotr in
force in this State, as maT be necessary to carry
out this Act, and which are declared to be in full
force, bennd the same are hereby repealed,” and a
note on the margin of ihe page says, “This act revo
lutionizes our whole system, and no better synop
sis of the previous legislation modified or repealed
by this Act can be given, than is furnished by this
clause of the Act itself. All tho former “specific
taxes” arc repealed, except those retained specially
by this Act. All the laws necessary for th.s tu-
forccmcnt and collection of taxes under this Act
are retained.”
Since you have been pleased to call our attention
and careful perusal to the Act of 1849, wc now re
quest your serious and careful perusal of this Act
—of a later date—and to give us your honest, can
did and conscientious opinion of the same. Docs
not the statute expressly say, “all defaulters shall
be double taxed, and that all laws and parts of laws
militating against this Act are hereby repealed?”
The Grand Jury upon the investigation of your
case and examination of the law pointed out to
them by yourself, did allow the Tax Collector the
amount claimed by you as unjust, and illegal, in bis
insolvent list, but u member of their Body being
dissatisfied with the actiou of the majority, con
sulted several distinguished lawyers, the Judg- of
the Superior Court and one Ex-Judge, and all u-
nonimously gave it as their opinions, that that
portion of the Act of 1847, not making non-resi
dents liable for a double tax, bad been repealed—
the matter was reconsidered, and the Collector in
structed to collect the balance still remaining un
paid. So you will perceive that if we arc so very
ignorant, and have yet to learn our duty as Grand
Jurors—and you are under the painful necessity
of reading us a lecture for our especial benefit, for
which we feci under many obligations, wc have
the opinions of those learned in the law to sustain
ns; and it is said, “in the multitude of Counsellors
there is safety.”
What ive have said, we assure you has been done
through no spirit of nnkiuduess or ill-feeliug, but
in justification of our action, and that we might
place ourselves correctly before our countymen,
and the country generally, and we do hope this is
the last time wc shall ever be troubled with a case
of this kind. Very respectfully your obedient ser
vants, BENJ. T. RUSSELL,

The Galveston Civilian scouts at the idea,
which has been extensively propagated, that
there is danger of a Free Soil feeling growing
up in Texas from the allcdgcd preponderance
in portions of the State of European emigrants,
and the increasing numbers which are coming
in. The Civilian replies by quoting the statis
tics of population, showing that in 1850, with
the exception of persons of Mexican parents
bom in Texas, the entire population of foreign
birth in the State was only twelve thousand,
of 124 per cent, of the people of the State.—
Since then the immigration from Europe has
not exceeded five hundred per annum, includ
ing men, women and children. Tlie deaths
among the original number are estimated to
have equaled tlie arrivals, and it is pronounced
to he doubtful whether the number of persons
of foreign birth in the State is now as great
as it was ten years ago. while the increase in
her population from immigration from other
States of the Union has been at least four hun
dred per cent. It is said, in addition, that the
foreign bom population have never shown any
disposition to change the policy of the State
in regard to slavery.
There has been, on this showing, a very un
necessary fear generated out ot very scanty
materials.

I once defended a man charged with the awful
crime of murder. At the conclusion of the
trial, I asked him what could induce him to
stain his bands with the blood of a fellow-be
ing. Turning his bloodshot eyes full upon me
he replied, in a voice of despair,".Mr. Webster,
iu my youth I spent the holy Sabbath in evil
amusements, instead of frequenfing the house
of prayer and praise.” Could we go back to
the early years of all hardened criminals, I be
lieve, yes, firmly belicre, that their first depar
ture from tho path of morality was when they
abandoned the Sabbath School, and their sub
sequent crimes might thus be traced back to
the neglect of youthful religious instruction.
Many years ago I spent a Sabbath with
Thos. Jefferson, at his residence in Virginia.
It was in the month of June, and the weather
was delightful. While engaged in discussing
the beauties of the Bible, the sound of a bell
broke upon our ears, when, turning to the sage
of Mouticello. I remarked, “How sweetly,
how very sweetly sounds that Sablmth bell!”
The distinguished statesman for a moment
seemed lost in thought, and then replied: “Yes,
my dear Webster, yes, it melts the heart, it
calms our passions, and makes us boys again.”
Here I observed that man was ouly an animal
formed for religious worship, and that not
withstanding all the sophistry of Epicurus,
Lucretius, and Voltaire, the Scriptures stood
upon a rock as firm, as uumoveable as truth
itself. That man. in his purer, loftier breath
ings, turned the mental eyes toward immortali
ty, and that the poet ouly echoed tho general
sentiment ol our nature in saying, that
"Tlie soul, secure in hur existence,
Smiles at the drawn dagger, and defies its point.’
Mr. Jefferson fully concurred in this opinion,
and observed that the tendency of the Ameri
can mind was m a different direction; and that
Sunday schools—(he did not use our more cor
rect term. Sabbath)—presented the only legiti
mate means, under the Constitution, of avoid
ing the rock on which the French Republic
was wrecked. “Burke,” said he,“never ut
tered a more important truth than when lie ex
claimed that ‘a religious education was the
cheap defence of nations. “Raikes,” said Mr.
Jeffii*son,*'has done more for our country than
the present generation will acknowledge; per
haps when I am cold he will obtain his reward;
I hope so—earnestly hope so; 1 am considered
by many, Mr. Webster, to have little religion,
but now is not the time to correct errors of ibis
sort. I have always said, and always wilksay,
that the studious perusal 5f the Sacred Volume
will make better citizens, better fathers, and
husbands. Of the distinguished Raikes, he
was 'clarum et venerabile nomen.' ’ ’ I took the
liberty of saying that 1 found more pleasure
iu Hebrew poetry than In the best productions
of Greece and Rome. That the “Harp upon
the willows by Babylon” had charms for me
beyond anything in the numbers of the blind
man of Smyrna. I then turned to Jeremiah,
(there was a fine folio of the Scriptures before
me of 1458.) and read aloud some of those sub
lime passages that used to delight me on my
farther’s knee. But I fear, my dear friend, I
shall tire you with my prolix accouut of what
was a pleasant Sabbath, spout in th . company
of oue who has filled a very large space m our
political and literary annals.
Thanking you for your report, and heartily
concurring with you in the truth of your quota
tion, that “Righteousnesscxaltethanation, but
sin is a reproach to any people,” I remain, with

WEED’S SEWING MACHINE makes equally as
good work on the finest fabric or on the heaviest
cloth, on either of which lor beauty and durability
it is superior to hand-work. We invite the atten
tion of those who wish machines, to seo Weed’s Ma
chine. They are the best for family use, because a-
dapted to all kinds of work. They are tho best for
manufacturers, because they make such beautiful
and strong work. They are the best for tailors, be
cause they do better work than his hands.
Extract from a letter written by a gentleman, own-
ing a plantation near New Orleans. Your two Weed’s
Patent Sewing Machines have been in almost con
I slant use since I bought them, and with the best of
practical results. In less than three weeks the two
| operators on them finished a complete suit of clothes
for each of my two hundred and ten plantation hands
and I find the time saved in using them one season,
has more than paid their cost.
Tlie Editor of the Zanesville (Ohio) Courier, says:
There has never been a Sewing Machine in this city
that has given such unbounded satisfaction to ail
who have used it as the Weed’s Patent. W« have
examined them, and must confess our admiration
of their simplicity and durability, and can, with per
fect confidence, afteran examination of ail other Sew
ing Machines pronounce this to ihe best, and recom
mend it to our readers, who wish n sewing Machine,

I am satisfied in my own mind that with

the boat and rigging 3 tons and a half—this
will leave about 8 tons ascending power, for

The French government has denied in the

or sympathy in any way, public or private
with Mons. Belly and tho French speculators
Nicaragua Transit and Canal grants. We
suspect it will be found eventually that the
position of Louis Napoleon towaidthe Nicara
gua canal plans of Mons. Belly is precisely the
same as that he holds towards Mons. Lesseps
and the Suez caiial projects. He believes that
both would be advantageous to the woild, but
" not disposed to make the construction of
either n political question. In politics he is
jnst now engaged with far higher objects, and
in public works he thinks his attention has
sulficient employment in France, where lie is
still carrying out grand schemes. As for Mons.
Belly, hi, no doubt, hus pursued the same
course as that followed by Vanderbilt, Mor
gan, Howland, Aspinwall and others, who al
ways pretend, in their Isthmus intrigues, to
po.-scss the confidence of our government and
to be acting in accordance with it, when the
government knows nothing about what they

In the Brandon (Miss.) Republican, of
Thursday last, we find the following:
We learn from several reliable gentlemen
that .Mr. Baugh, residing near Strong River
in Smith county,about a mouth ago, was boring
for water in the piney woods, and when had
bored about forty feet, “it mighty rush'ng
wind came out ot tlie hole, which continued for
several days. He quit boring and waited to
see what would come of it. He placed u bottle
over the hole; and the wind makes a noise iu it
which can he heard a mile. It “blows about an
hour atatmie. and then it begins to “suck iu,”
which coutinues for about the same time, and
blows again. So far no diminution of its force
has been discovered. It lias attracted many
