The governor's office is doing a heavy business paying the amount appropriated by the legislature to supply maimed confederate soldiers with limbs. Bain snd mud in abundance The buttlneufor the past week in the money order department of iso Atlanta postofflee sgiregated |V>.479 S3. THS MalMBO bOLDIBRS. The governor's office is doing a heavy btttinc a now j*yli g the amount appropriated by tho legis lature tosupply maimed coufederate soldiers with Hubs. Many pathetic rpeotacles are witnessed, ai d many touching stories aro told in the capitol an the men of empty sleeves and dangling pantaloons, draw the meager pittance that the state is able to give them. Yesterday an old soldier who lives near tho city, received Ills allowance with an unusual jvhow of gratitude. He had only oue arm. aud his hai'd bore evidences of the hardcat mauual labor. “You have no Idea," he «ald to Mr. Tip Harri son, as the papers wero filled out. "How mucu help this money wifi De to mo. I have to mako my liv ng cutting cord wood. It’s the only work I can get You can imagine what headway a man Can innko cutting cord wood with one hand." While that old soldier will w-Jgh every Cent before ho spends it, there aro others to whom the money •111 be of little service. There have already been beneficiaries who yielded to tha temptations of tho. bowl and squandered their money in a brie! debauch. The constitution provides that the legislature may raise mouey "to supply inalmed confederate soldiers with artificial Hub* during life.” Ttoact of the legislature pawed In performance of this K iovUion of the constitution provides lac the governor.,* may., supply tho limbs, or if the soldiers prefer, they may take the money and supply thimstives, Jr is evident, and in fact, it in really known that the amounts al* lowed were predicated upon the cent of ihoartltl- c lMt limbs and not upon thu basis of lnconvcnfeuce and loss by the soldier* in being deprived of tin lr members. Tims it was * silraated that an artificial leg below tho knee would Cost 373, aud that an nr- title al arm below the; elbow would cost forty. Ills mm that the man whose arm was to n aw*y in bil*lp. feefs more keenly hi* Io*«i than tho mau who is Hmidy minus one le *, esjHicIcnlly If ho jm a laboring man. It Is not perhaps in accordance wlili ho strict lcttoroflaw for this money to bo spout except for limbs, hut tho spirit of tho Jaw ami tho sentiment of tho pc-.plo permits iho soldiers to do as they plea*© wlih the mouey. it would hardly do to give them a st-.uo whou they jok«l f07.fir~fi.Tf0 fio-W *oofidxo PI rarw»r«; or vote involving * arid fit nisrido, Itre-n sru Instances wUere ro dlcrs uuiejM u^yuiur^j^nu »re more desOrrlog of aid (row Uw Hate limit in utihor of the cases nieutloucd, but the Cottstltutlou makes no provtstuu for them. it is raid that there are confederate soldiers with both eye. shot out, and Mr. Harrison tells of ati instance that has come under his own observation, r.ud which is truly dts- rrcailiig, lu which .man eras disabled for life, but ceu receive no benefit muter the law.

The authorised statement of fait views on tariff revision by fpeaker Carlisle has been generally teed, andellclumuch comment. The statement got* on to say that Mr. Carlisle knows that the pres ent law it uot a reformer of the old law, therefore he favors its revision, believing that at least the reduction oi 20 per cent recommended by thetarlff crmmlulun should bo made, and that tlio increased rates of duty by which the promised objects of the bill of last session wero porvorted should be re formed. Hu holds that tho demands of tho "best conservative oploalon have not been satisfied, that an attempt has been made to deceive those who hold It.” There hts bcon no change in lita posi tion. He believes that ultimately mu customs du ties of tho government nmsi be coiiirtert lor public uses only, and ho Is desirous of rer * "— he considers a healthy financial \ way and by such tteps as will enal ol tho country to adjust Itself to tho uew couultlou of thlogt without difficulty.

TtfCKKa'S REVELATIONS. Representative Tucker, of Virginia, who has serv ed foraloug time ou the committee of ways and means with Mr. Uarlislo, and hid almost dally coo lereucea with him, and who voted for him in tho caucus, said that Mr. Garlhle was r*co*uU-id ou «il tides of the houio aa oue of tho Able&i mtm lu pub* lie h/e, fair aud non-partisan, and eminently con-: kcrvallve in all hi* vluw*.

A very large ma jority of the southern members wero In favor of Mr. CarlElo and lnacoord witnhls views. Ills views aud the views of those who voted for him were well known b-fore the congressional elections, and many members had been returned on these very Issues. HE IS MO FREE TRADER. Mr. RRndaU's views were rot In aocord with a large majority of his democratic coll sgnes In the last house, and a majority of tho northern vote waacaat against blm. A lar*e proportion of (he C z vote would have gone for Car Isle had the con test been beiween blm and Randall. The predic tions of business perils from his election wss falsi fied by the emphatic conservatism of bis address on taking the chair, which elicited applauae on both side* of the house, aud which baa been com mended by many of the leading republican jour nals of the country. That address will form the basis of his policy. He will organize the oommlt- tees iu accordance with Its ideas, and the result of hi* administration of hi* powerful office will vindi cate the wisdom of bis election. Mr. Carlisle is no free trader. He favors a tariff tor revenue, with such protection to American industries as must be iuddeutal to any tariff which produces the am- uut of revenue we ueed. The tariff bill which passed at the fast session against the democratic vote can not product) enough revenae to meet the ordinary expenses of the government, and unleaa it is changed to product more reveuue the repeal of all internal revenue taxation would create a deficit. ltCailUle'a policy should succeed In the adoption of a tariff sufficient to meet the expenses of tho f ovemment, he would favor an abrogation of the nteraal reveuue system. It Is the high tariff pro tec Jon policy which would prevent this.
