Prom our Evening Edition of Yesterday Important to Merchants—The State lax on Liquors.—The following proclama tion from Governor Jenkins suspending so much of the Act of the General Assembly in relation to the sale ol liquors as hits a retro spective action, conveys welcome intelligence to our mercantile friends, tipon whom the en forcement of this law would be manifestly un just : -, Executive Department, ) MILLED&EVILLE, Georoia, [ April 17th, 1800. > \V hereas, the Act of the General Assembly, entitled “An Act to levy and collect a tax for tlie support of the government, for the year l s el), and for other purposes,” imposes a tax of twenty cents on every gallon of brandy, gin, whisky or rum, sold in this State, returns of sales to be made and the tax paid quarterly, be ginning with the first of April : And, whereas, said Act was uot passed until the 3d March, 1800, and could not be generally known before the expiration of the first quarter, whereby great hardship would befall persons selling in ignorance of such impending tax, and especially those selling on commission for non residents : Now, therefore, in virtue of authority in me vested by law, I, Charles J. Jenkins, Governor of the State of Georgia, do hereby suspend the collection of the tax imposed by the 12th Sec tion of said Act, upon brandy, gin, whisky, and rum, for the first quarter only, Including the months of January, February and March,lß6o, until the next meeting of the General Assembly. Tax Collectors will nevertheless require re turns for said first quarter, as though the col -1 action of the tax had not been suspended. Given under my hand and the ««i/ of the Executive Department, this I7tli day of April, A D„ 1866. . CHARLES J. JENKINS, Governor. Bombardment of Fort Sumter.—' The Panorama of the Bombardment of Fort Sumter, now on exhibition at Masonic Hull, was wit nessed last night by a large number of citizens, who expressed their approbation of tlie scenes which it reproduces in a very enthusiastic man ner. This afternoon, at three o’clock, an exhibi tion will be given for the convenience of ladies and children. Persons who witnessed and par ticipated in the bombardment recognize in the work oi tlie artist correct pictures of tlie original. The Confederate Dead. —The Richmond Examiner, of Tuesday, lias a letter from Mr. Thomas H. Ellis, President of the Hollywood Cemetery Company, from which we learn that the number of t lie dead of the Confederate army buried at Hollywood is 11,075. A register kept, in which were noted the name, rank, company, regiment and State of each soldier buried.— Every precaution was taken to insure regularity and system in the interments, because it was anticipated that after the war many removals Svould be made. Mr. Ellis says that there is as much proba bility of certainty in regard to identity, or the obtaining any particular body asked for, among those buried in the Hollywood Cemetery, as exists, perhaps, anywhere else under similar circumstances. lie then makes the following suggestion in regard to these graves: “The view 1 have is this: With few exceptions, the dead of the army are buried together in rows, near to each other, admitting of but a limited number of walk-ways or avenues. These graves 1 would have simply remoulded and turfed, with a small, negt. liead-stone to each, the surname carved upon the stone, and under the name a number, referring to the number in the regis ter, containing all the particulars known or given, as above stated. The expense of such an «Al irovrment as this is easily within the (lontrol <tf the ladies of Richmond, even in our present depressed condition, and, with you, 1 conli dently entrust the subject to their hearts and liaiUtf.” | TW Kenmitter nan aireauy cm tea tne mum* tlOn of the Richmond ladies to this work.] There is another great cemetery in Richmond, “ Oakwood,” where even a larger number were buried than at Hollywood. The total number of soldiers interred in Richmond, during the war, cannot iiill much short of 30,000. Our friend, Judge Phineus T. Scruggs, says the Memphis Avalanche, has just, returned from Mexico, where he lias been on a trip of inspec tion, and he informs us that he lias determined to make Cordova liis future home. He is now in Jackson, Tenn., his present place of resi dence, and requests us to announce that he will take pleasure in giving full information in re gard to that country to every one who may correspond with him on the subject. A Fact Settled.— The Loan bill, which has passed the two Houses of Congress, settles the fact that there is to be no great or rapid reduc- S tion of the present “greenback ” circulation.— . Not more than ten millions of dollars are to bo retired within six months from this time, or . more than four millions in any month there after. Narrow Escape.— lt is reported that ex- Scnator Gwin lately had a narrow escape from death. While writing, iu his room, at one of the New Orleans forts, a leaf of his manuscript blew off, ahd Dr. Gwin started for it upon the run, forgetting the sentinel upon duty. The negro drew his musket upon him, and pulled the trigger, but, fortunately, the cap failed to explode. Had it gone oft', that would have been lie end of the cx-Senator. Persistent. —The Pennsylvania Legislature have again adopted a resolution requesting Senator Cowan to resign. Divorces.—'There were sixteen divorces last week in Hartford, Connecticut. The Cotton Crop of 1860. The following is a private letter addressed by an experienced and intelligent cotton planter of this State to one of our leading cotton factors, llis estimate of the crop of this year, it will be seen, is 1,500,000 bales. His views are not based upon mere conjecture, but the result, of a close investigation: Dear Sir : In reply to your suggestion, please accept the following estimate. It is not exact to fractional exactness, lint near enough for argument and inference. You will allow me to say that while I do hot rejoice in the present, iam not despondent of the future. The esti mate is this : The crop of ISOO was 4,000,000 bales; the number of laborers was 1,000,000 black, 350,000 white, thus making an average of ?>% bales per hand. I dispose of the black labor thus: Os the army, dead and alive, 150,000; dead by destitu tion and disease, 150,000; left field work, ‘300,000 ; black laborers now at work in the cot ton States, 500,000. These, under the old regime , by the average above, ought to make 1,875,000 bales. They will not make so much for these reasons: ( nder the old regime they were in the field ()4 hours per week; under the new ar rangement, 48 hours per week. They thus must do one-fourth less work than formerly. But they are not worth as much while at work as formerly by one-fifth at least. Thus the pos sible production—l,B7s,ooo bales—must be diminished one-fourth and one-fifth, leaving 1,000,000 as the probable production of black laborers. .j'h® white labor (350,000) I dispose of thus ; i crippled, and in other employments, I go,ooo, leaving in the cotton field 125,000. 1 liese, at the above average, make, say 470,000 A( hl to this the. product of black labor, 1,0.,0,000, and we have, total for 1800,1,500,000 bales. If any are disposed to question the accuracy of the hours of labor, (and I write what I know) I will reduce the slave’s hours to sixty per week, advauce the froedman’s to lil'ty, and that will make the aggregate 1,600,000. The relative value in the field I have put too low, but we will Jet it stand. Many will say it ought to be re duced one-fourth, instead of one fifth. An incidental and important fact should not hf; omitted the rich alluvial lauds, to a lartfc extent, are idle. The dependence must be on the hill lands, and the best of these wasted by the neglect of two or three years. Take these facts for what they are worth, and I think they are worth as much as the uncon sidered trifles of those who are addicted to looking at the world through a gimlet hole. In fact, I think they are worth as much as General Sherman’s dictum, who, after visiting Little Koek, Arkansas, felt sanguine that a large cot ton crop would be made. And Liverpool re peats the prophecy, and cotton falls one fartli ing! By such absurdities, cotton is beared down to its present unworthy price. Very respectfully, yours, J. W. B.

Treasurer Spinner yesterday received from a Federal Surgeon at Bowling Green, Ky., the sum of $19!) in United States currency, tlie property of small pox patients in the military hospital at that point, and which he, the sur geon, deemed injudicious to allow to go into circulation. Tlie infected money was securely sealed, and was burned by Treasurer Spinner, who, on his own responsibility, forwarded tlie same amount of new greenbacks to the Bowling Green hospital. FROM NEW YORK. New York, April 18.—The strike on the city railroads continues, with una bated inconvenience to. travelers. In tlie forenoon of yesterday the old hands on the Third Avenue went to work, with the under standing that their demands would be complied with, hut tied up on hearing such was not the company’s intention. On. tlie other lines of railroad trafie was more or less irregular, and ceased altogether at 8, p. in. A riot took place m the neighborhood of Thirtieth street and Second Avenue. Arrests were made and the rioters separated without doing much injury. A meeting ot the drivers took place in Conti nental Hall, at which enthusiastic speeches were made and subscriptions raised for the assistance of the strikers. Judge Ingraham lias decided, relative to the claims of Morris Ketelium & Co., on the New York and New Haven Railroad Company, as to the latter’s responsibility for the fraudulent issue of stock by Robert Schuyler. Tlie de cision is judgment for defendant against plain tiffs for $100,576 05, with interest on $54,834 60 from April 10th, 1806, and costs. Col. O’Maliony visited the Germania Assem bly Rooms, where the fair of the Fenian Sister hood is being held, last night, and delivered'a short address on the progress of tlie work. New York, April 18.—The Tribune says: The Supreme Council of Free Masons of tlie Southern jurisdiction met again yesterday at the Templars’ Asylum. Among the visiting Inspector Generals were Brothers Head, ol' Now Hampshire, and Rage, of Mississippi. A long report of Brother Rockwell, of Georgia, was read on tlie conflicting claims of the two bodies at the North, each claiming to be tlie Supreme Council. It was shown that under tin: constitution of 1786 neither body number ed among its original number a majority of those previously recognized by tlie Northern jurisdiction as members of this Supreme Coun cil, and consequently neither one is legitimate. A re-union of the legitimate thirty-thirds in each council is recommended as the only way to heal this difficulty. Last evening a magnifi cent banquet was given at tlie Metropolitan Hotel, by Martin Collins, to all of the thirty thirds in the city. Before ils close there was a display of Masonic friendship by brothers from almost every State in tlie Union, some of whom were not long ago opposed to each other in arms. New York, April 13.—The Herald's Corn wall, C. W., special of the 17th iust., says : Upon the close ofthejjKoi dings to-day the magistrates, with great Wood natute, revealed on the street all that had transpired. There have been four witnesses under examination. One Welch, of Oakville, near Toronto, testified that Murphy had asked him to sell the bonds of the Irish Republic, and that be (Murphy) had said that $25,000 had been subscribed in To ronto for the cause ol Irish Independence.— Detective Spiver testified that on last St. Patrick’s day Murphy had made a seditious speech, and said that $25,000 had been sent from Toronto to O’Mnhony. Mr. Orr, of the Toronto Globe, testified that, lie reported the speecli alluded to by Spiver, but was unable to say whether it was loyal or treasonable. It seemed to have a disloyal tendency. Cullen, one of tire prisoners, was examined, but re fused to criminate himself. Col. Wheeler acts in the most reckless manner. In passing from the court room' he returned to Judge Jarvis tmd - Ai l nknii OW-O , J»OU BOl*ao thing, sir.” He openly acknowledged his con nection with the Fenians, and says that Sweeney will soon lie hereto liberate him. Ex-Attorncv General McDonald, the prisoner’s counsel, is obliged to leave for Ottowa to-night. It. is un certain who will succeed him as counsel for the defense. Sparr, one of the St. Albans raiders, Is here, staying with the sheriff. The whole of the volunteers are to be retained until the close ol' the trial, probably until the first of June. The apprehensions of a raid are subsiding. New York, April 17.—Reports from South America via England, dated Buenos Ayres, March 18th, and Rio Janeiro, March 10th, say the Brazilian Admiral Towandcre reached Con ception on the 2lstof February and sought an interview with Gen. Mitre, the President of the Argentine Confederation and Commander-in chief of tlie allied forces, immediately. No movement was undertaken by the Bra zilians, and their inactivity was the subject of severe comment. The fleet under Admiral Perry is a powerful one, including some iron clads. The Paraguayans held out determinedly; made some very daring sorties, crossing the Rio Parana armed, in canoes, and making attacks on the vanguard of the Argentines. It was thought the Brazilians would attempt a passage of the Parana, and that it would be effected, but with immense loss to the Allies. The Paeso de la Patria was more carefully watched by the Allies since the successes of the Paraguayan incursion on the invaders side. Buenos Ayres was tired of the war, as her financial and other material internal affairs were disturbed by its continuance. Almost a panic was produced by French in fluence on the Provincial Bank of that city. The merchants proffered aid to the institu tion, and two private banks came forward, and one offered $150,000 in silver, and the other $250,000 iu gold, if it was needed. FROM NEW ORLEANS.

When that was brought to him the Marsha] very readily consented to issue the passport. GREAT FIRE IN TITUSVILLE, PENN. Titusville, April 18. — A fire broke out at half-past one this morning, in a small frame building on the corner of Franklin and Short streets, and thence extending in all directions with great rapidity. From the railroad track the fire swept witli irresistible force northward.

Horrible Murder—Seven People Killed for a Little Money. Philadelphia, April 11.—A terrible crime in tile lower section of the city was discovered this afternoon. A family of seven persons had been murdered—Christopher Deering, his wife, niece and fo«r children—on Mr. Deering’s farm at Point House and Janies Lane. It is supposed the murders were committed last Friday by a German laboring on tlie farm. The crime was discovered this afternoon by finding tlie bodies of Mr. Deering and his wife in the barn. One of the children was a baby ten months old. Money seems to have been the sole object. Tlie horses and cattle in tlie stable were found in a famishing condition. Philadelphia, April 12.—Full reports of tlie Deering family murder show it to have been one of the most horrible butcheries of the age. The press reporters say that the body of the mother and those of the four children were found in one corner of the barn, near a small out-house, which communicated together by a hole, through which tlie remains of the victims were brought to view. It seems as though tlie tiodies were thrown together pell mell and then covered over with dirt and hay. Tlie unfQrtuuates were most terribly mangled about tlie head. A new, sharp and bloody axe was found in the rear of the dwelling, which had been used for the bloody work. All the victims seem to have been struck on the left side of the forehead, just above tlie eye. With the axe and tlieu with tlie blade of the murder ous weapon. The demon finished his horrible work by cutting the throats of all. One of tlie little boys was so badly cut that his head dropped oil when his body was lifted up. The other boy, when discovered, had his right arm crooked and partly raised, as though attempt ing to ward off tlie blow that sent him to eter nity. Tlie mother was defending her body from tlie attack of the demon when she was mercilessly struck down. Tlie babe received an awful blow on the upper part of tlie breast, near the shoulder, almost severing one of its arms, and also another sharp cut on tlie side of the head. Probably tlie most correct of the theories ex pressed is that all this dreadful work was done on Saturday morning during the abseneeof Mr. Deering. His body and that of Miss Keating, his cousin, were found along side of tlie barn, not far distant from tlie spot where the other bodies of Mr. Deering and Miss Keating were covered with hay, one of his feet sticking out. A little hoy, aged 14 years, wlio lived with tlie family and worked on the farm, is missing. It is believed he was also murdered and his body thrown into a deep well, or one of the many ditches that abound in that section of the coun try. Tlie well on tlie premises was partly searched last night, but no bottom could he reached. The ditches in the vicinity of tlie house were also examined without discovering the body of the missing boy. Tlie search will be renewed this morning with renewed vigor. Tlie Ledger says tlie more this murder is ex amined into tlie more astouuding it appears. A mother and her four children are butchered, it, is supposed singly, after being enticed from home and without leaving any marks of the hellish deed behind, and then upon the arrival of tlie husband and niece for them to have been dealt with in tiie. same manner, and still no spot of blood found in the house or yard is a deed surprising. The only rational theory we have heard is that upon tlie arrival of Mr. Deer ing and his niece he discovered that his family were not in the house, aud started after them, and alter leaving the house was murdered. The niece then, it is thought, followed her uncle and was in turn killed in the same manner. Unfortunately it appears that tlie name of the supposed murderer is not known by any of tlie neighbors, nor can any description of him he given. It is only known at present that he was a German laborer. The excitement in regard c* the murder in tlie lower section of the city is intense. Later.— An additional victim to the horrible tragedy down the Neck was discovered this morning. Tlie body of the missing hoy, Cor nelius Cary, was found, under a hay stack, with his skull smashed in with a hammer and his throat cut. The clothes of the supposed mur derer are found. Tliej*are stained all over with blood. The Bulletin gives Hie following description of tlie supposed murderer : A German, named Anthony, or Antonio, aged twenty-eight to thirty years, height five feet eleven inches, very muscular, light complexion, light hair, slight mustache and goatee, pimples on Ills face, round shoulders, walks slowly, taking long steps, and speaks imperfect English. The po lice are making every effort to arrest tlie mur derer. The Slavery Question in Brazil. The Substitution of Free Labor to be Gradual— iun. (tail the Jncrotixt-etJon. Asiatic Laborers to be Encouraged, §c. |From tlic Anglo-Brazilfan Times, (Rio.) Jan. 24. From all sources the information wc can glean about the war, is that in a few months— say two or three—the first blow will be struck, and let us hope that the termination will then speedily follow ; but the work will not termi nate .then. Brazil cannotafford to lie down and rest like a gorged lion; it will behoove her to lie up and stirring, and to hasten and do all in her power to put her house in order, and for this will want all the talent and patriotism the empire can afford. Brazil has great resources, but they are badly developed, and the large indirect taxation is expensive on account of the mode of levying, and offers inducement to dis-' honesty by the premium it gives to smuggling on the coast. What is wanted firstly is a new set of men —and some such are certainly to be found—men who will accept office, not for the purpose of emolument or patronage, but for the honor of the position and for the grand ob ject of leaving behind them a name to be hand ed down to future generations as a pattern of what probity and disinterestedness can do for a country. Leaving these questions alone, another, and verily a hydra-lieaded monster, is rearing up and looming in the future. In a short tiipcand Brazil will be the only country in the civilized world where slavery is tolerated. It is now so crying an evil that all the tendency of public opinion is against its continuance; people now commence to see that the two kinds of labor never can exist iu harmony, and that free labor inevitably degenerates iu presence of forced. What is to be done ? No doubt our local economists will suggest many plans, some un feasible, some more or less feasible—to enfran chise all slaves at once, and to repay the owners by a money compensation, we are quite against. The enfranchisement must be gradual, and made in such away that free labor will, as a natural course, lie found to substitute it. We have no space, we have no intention of going into the details of a scheme ; we leave it in abler hands; but would suggest, and the following is by no means a new idea, the passing of a law to' the effect that in a period of years from its passage there are to be no more slaves employed iu any town where there is a port along the coast; that in another period of years the line will be ex tended to a certain number of leagues, and so on until in fifty years hence all slaves then are to be freed indiscriminately of age or sex, and by that period all the present generation will have died away. During the period of the enfranchisement, government should appoint a proper Board oi Immigration, and have regular agents abroad, and at the same time every assistance and facil ity should be given to any importer of free la bor, including the Asiatic races—say the Coolie and the Chinese—by the reimbursement of the cost of their passage, and by grants of small plots of land to the importer or the immigrant. If the Government want any information as to “ distant ” emigration, let them look to tlic col onies of Australia, New Zealand, and Mauri tius. We have already stated that we did not intend to go into the details of any scheme of immigration, and we leave the matter here, be ing confident that once the law of enfranchise ment is passed, the growers, for their own sakes, will put the shoulder to the wheel to work out away to supply the want of slaves ; the Latin race is rather prone to look to its government, its head, for support in all difficul ties ; tint in a case like the present we may hope that self-interest will arouse Brazil from her in ertness and make her come out and join the race ot the strong and the bold, and show in time a favorable contrast to the great Aimlo- Saxon republic of the North. Before any scheme of immigration can be car ried out laws must tie passed putting all foreign ers on perfectly equal looting with tlic natives, allowing (till freedom and full tolerance to every religion, revising the present laws of marriage, of settlements and of, inheritance; iu fact, placing the foreigner iu the position he would occupy in his own country. And now our concluding words: we are proud of Brazil as far as regards her internal resources, but her statesmen are lacking in energy and in true patriotic honesty of purpose. Were they to follow iu the footsteps of the head of this great empire they would prove themselves more equal to the task they have undertaken than they have hitherto, and instill some energy into this mighty land. Tiie Savannah Republican clip the following from a recent letter from Savan nah to the Tallahassee Sentinel. It Explains the reason why the Republican continues under the control of Mr. Hayes. The letter says : “ An interesting case has just been decided in this city by arbitration. It will be recollected that at the capture of Savannah by Gen. Sher man, the Republican office was turned over to Mr. John E. Hayes, who has, since that time, been publishing the same. Recently, the Presi dent issued an order restoring the property to its former proprietor, Mr. F. W. Sims. Mr Hayes having stocked the office with ne w ma terial, the matter was left to arbitration, who awarded the office to Mr. Hayes on payment of a consideration to Mr. Sims, and the paper will therefore continue under the auspices of the former.” We see it stated that the arbitrators allowed Col. Sims $6,500 for liis interest in the Republi. can. The Southern Inspection.— The orders given by the President to Generals Steadman and Fullerton include an inspection of the Freedman’s Bureau, its management and its usefulness, and its estimation by the Southern people. This is to be done outside of the Bu- Ireau, and without consultation with its chief officers. They will remain in the South for several weeks. AUGUSTA, (Ga.) SUNDAY MORNING, APRIL 22, 1866.

We know the persons and circumstances, hence feel at liberty to endorse their statements: “New Bedford, Mass., Nov. 24,1863. Dear Sir: I have been afilicted many years with severe prostrating cramps in my limbs, cold feet and hands, and a general disordered system. Physicians and medicines failed to relieve me. While visiting some friends in New York who were using Plantation Bitters, they prevailed upon me to try them. I com menced with a small wine glassful alter dinner. Feel ing hotter by degrees, in a few days I was astonished to find the coldness and cramps had entirely left me, and I could sleep the night through, which X have not done for years. X feel like another being. My appe tite and strength have also greatly improved by the use of the Plantation Bitters. Respectfully, Judith Rhssel.” “ Rekdsburt, Wis., Sept. 16,1863. * * * “I have been in the army hospital for fourteen months—speechless and nearly dead.

One fittfe girl in particular, with pains in her head, loss of appetite and daily wasting consumption, on whom all medical skill had been exhausted, has been entirely restored. We commenced with but a teaspoonful of Bitters a day. Her appetite and strength rapidly Increased, and she is now well. Respectfully, Mrs. O. M.

DRAKE A O#., ocl3l-<k> jja Park Raw, N. T. artificial limbs. SOUTHERN LEG AND ARM CO., MADISON, GA. THE Artificial Legs aiul Arms(Uren’s Patent) manufactured by this Company, have met with the unqualified approval of the most skillful and dis tinguished Surgeons and men of science in France and England; and after the closest and most rigid exami nation in this country, a Commission was issued by the Surgeon General of the United States, in his “ Circular Order,” May 13th, 1865, to have them fur nished to each soldier who had lost a limb in the Fed eral service. THEY ARE CONSTRUCTED OF WILLOW COVERED WITH RAW-IIIDE, HIGHLY ENAMELED, FLESH COLOR, IMPER VIOUS TO WATER AND UNAF FECTED BY HEAT. A Medium Size Arm weight* only 31 ounces, ami a Leg from i to 0 pound.. Notwithstanding their lightness they are very dura ble, requiring hut little expense to keep them in order, und so simple in their construction that a common me chanic can make any necessary repairs in a few min utes, and so strong that it is impossible to split it with an axe or break it with reasonable force. We imitate nature to the life, and make the limb the shape of the corresponding leg or arm, and finish it as perfectly as possible. The natural motion very often is so perfect that in large number of cases it is impossible to tell which is the artittcial from the sound limb. THE ARM is the wonder of the age and challenges the admiration of the world. A person whose stump is one or more inches in length and retains a-healthy degree of force and rigidity, can, with this arm, at will, Raise the Artificial Hand to his Mouth, Forehead or even to the top or hack of his Head, Put on or take off his Hat, CarryTiis Valise or Cloak, •» Use the Hoe, Axe or Plough Handles, Roll a Wheelbarrow, And by securing a knife, fork, pen, nail brush or other implement into the port of the band prepared for lt,» he can Cut his Food and Carry it to his Mouth, Write witli Respectable Clearness, Wash the Remaining Hand, I Play the Violin, Hold the Reins in Driving, etc., etc. the Leg is equally as useful and beautiful, and as perfect a piece of inechanicism as the arm. The ankle joint is so constructed as-to give the natural motion with the assistance of the toe joints to the foot, which being connected to the upper part of the leg by artittcial cords running over pulleys, secures a proper lever power, the whble resting upon a buffbase, making the step light, elastic, natural and easy. Persons wearing one of these legs Readily Walk Five Miles—Plough all day long, Do Carpenter or Cabinet Work, Go Up and Down Stairs, witli ease, Mount and Dismount a Horse, And with practice Run, Jump and Dance, With two Artificial Legs Walk two miles Without Resting, Drive a Wagon—Make Salesmen or Expressmen, Telegraph Operators, d:c.
