in two places. But both bridges will, we learn ,
bo in complete repair during to day.
Col. Cole, the efficient Superintendent of the
road, is on'the spot himself, and tho repairs
are being completed rapidly.
o\'K thing Needed.— An increase of the num
ber of mechanics in our city is a thing which is
greutely needed. A more promising field for
enterprising, onorgetic mechanics was never
presented, than is now offered by Augusta.
Industrious and reliable mechanics make
a thriving population for any city ;
and if we can only get a sufficient number of
them started in business in our midst, we will
soou see, all around ns, evidences of prosperity.
Another Goon Movement. — We notice by
the Macon Journal that an Ageut of the Freed
men s Bureau tns been engaged for the past
few days iu taking the census of the negroe3 in
that city, their employment, mode ot living,
&c. —for the purpose, we understand, of finding
out all who aie not legitimately employed, aud
sending them to some w sections that are in
need of labor. This is, decidedly, a good
movement, and if carried out to tho letter in
a'l cities, will, doubtless, relieve them of a
great deal of mischief, which is committed by
vagrants who have no honest way of making a
living.

A High Handed Outback.— On Thursday
some colored troops wem to the house of Mrs
Freeman, a lady residing st 'ut a mde from
<he Atsenal, and grossly in-ulted her. One
of them, we are told, threatened her life. Her
eon making his appearance, pistol in hand, the
party left. Early in the evening eight soldiers
went to the house, and demanded admittance.
Being refused, they endeavored to forej an
entrance. A well’ directed shot from a
window, however, brought down one of the
party, and checked the movements of the
balance. Tho wounded negro was taken up
by his companians and carried to the Arsenal'
In a little while a large party returned to the
house.
In tho meantime, a eon of Mrs. Freeman,
and two other gentlemen, who fortunately
happened to be in the house, made prepara
tions to give any one who might attempt any
deeds of violence a warm reception
The lawless wretches as soon as they ar
rived made a regular attack upon the house,
and succeeded in breaking down the door.
The family reheated to an upper story.
The negroes, then, commenced a tegular raid
on the furniture, at same time using the
most violent and obscene language. They
entered the parlor and broke in pieces the
piano, and other furniture and articles of
value.
Having done all the injury in their powrr
in this part of the building, they returned to
the hall, and endeavored to ascend the stairs
to the room wheie Mrs. F. and family had
taken refuge. A well aimed bib let from Mr.
Freeman’s pistol finished the caieer of crime
of tho negro in advance. Nothing daunted
another villain followed in the footsteps of the
first one and met the same just fate. Enraged
at being thus foiled, two more rushed up the
stairs—only to increase the heap ot carcases
on the floor. Both fell under tie fire of Mr
F. and his liriends.
By this time an officer, arrived from tho nr.
eenal, and put an end to tho proc edings. He
immediately ordered tho remaining soldiers
back to the arsenal, where they were imme
diately 'put under arrest. Ilis arrival at the
scene of action was indeed a fortunate occur
rence, for the negroes had torches, and might
in their fury and desire for revenge have de
stroyed both the house and inmates by five.
Wo are told that three of the negroes were
badly wounded—aside from the four who wvre
killed.
The Wholesale Merchants of Augusta.—
Tho most casual visitor of our city, cannot
fail to remark the enterprise of our mer
chants,* preaninent amongest whom are those
who conduct a wholesale business.
In open communication with New York,
Savannah, and Charleston, to say nothing of
the Western markets, our wholesale merchants
display great energy and no little knowledge
of political economy, by making heavy pur
chases iu those cities, at such prices, as ena
ble them to sell the goods here, at New York
rates—freight added.
They aro constantly in receipt of large
stocks, and keeps their excellent store houses
filled with everything that helps to constitute
the good things of this life.
They are liberal and honest in their deal
ings and our country merchants will find it
greatly, to their advantage to give them or
ders to fill.
In no city in Georgia are greater or more
favorable inducements hold out to too trade,
than those offered by the bueineea won of -An
gusta.
To our friends In the country, we repeat, if
you wish to purchase “goods as are good -,”
cheap, yes at very low costs, come to this city.
Hero you can sell anything you briDg, from
a fowl to an ox; from a peck of wheat to a
bundle of hay, and here you can find the
finest 6hoos, tho prettiest bonnets, tho most
lovely dresses; highly flavored cigars, the best
of mackerel, the choicest groceries, and tobac
coos all kinds. ~ e y
Here you can have your pictures taken, read
tho best cf newspapers, see tha latest fashions,
and have the finest printing done.
A Question. —ls the Southern States are not
entitled to representation, except at the pleas

subjugated provinces; and if they can thus be
deprived of their liberties, what security is

certain contingencies arising ? We merely put
the questiou.

Bask* is South Carolina. —The Charleston
Courier in speaking of the liabilities of the

The Committee on the Jadiciary,
through the Hon. Henry Buiat, has made a re
port on this subject. It recommends the re
mission of the penalties and forfeitures imposed
upon the Banks of the State for not making
payment of their notes in current com, and
for failure to make return efiheir state and
condition, and repeals the heretofore pro
visions on this subject, declaring the share
holders ot the various B inks of the State liable
ip case of the failure of such Banks.
Tke reasons assigned for the legislation seem
eminefrsiy proper. It is justified by the con
dition in which the Banks have been placed in
consequence of the great losses to which they
have been subjected by the overthrow of the
late Confederate Government and the univer
saf ruin which has been the result of wa-.
We trust it has, by this time, become the law
of the land.
Beverdy Johnson on the Test Oath—ln
the Understates Supreme Court December 22,
pending tne case ex-parte A. H. Garland, of
Aikansa?. asking to be allowed to practice as
a Counsellor, Hon. Riverdy Johnson delivered
an argument against the constitutionality of
the Congressional test oath. He said :
There being no antecedent Government to
our own, it is necessary to look into the con
stitution itself to see wh it power* were origi
nally conferrtd upon Congress; these being
stated, Congress is autboriz and to pass all ne
cessary and proper laws to carry them into ef
fect. These powers are to be so construed as
to effect the object they are designed to ac
complith, It is the duty of the Court to as
certain what this i c , atd then de’erminp
whether the ltgUlatiou will defeat or secure
the end. A restriction to the class of powers
is, that Congress shall pass no expest facto law
or t ill of attainder.
. The meaning of this i3 well understood to
be any law which makes an act a crime which
was not a crime when the act wa3 committed.
But the law of 1865 does punish in point of
fact, because it precludes tha petitioner from
the exercise of all lawful occupation, aud
strikes at a profession in which his hopes and
ambition and support of himself -and family
are involved. The punishment is severe,
cruel, and unexampled. It subjects him to
ail the objections of the Constitution, while
it takes from him all its advantages. The
original act of 1862 was not made applicable
to attorneys in the Courts of the United States
Three years were suffered to elapse when
someone in Congress, who might have been
peculiarly sensitive, and who saw danger iu
every man who had taken part in the rebel
lion introduced a bill applying the provisions
of the law to practicing attorneys.
The bills was submitted to the Judiciary
Committee of the Senate, and by a unanimous
vote was rejected. It afterward received the
sanction of the Senate It was passed for the
purpose of excluding the petitioner, aEd all
others similarly situated ; to banish them from
tho United States Courts.
It was not for conduct subsequent, but an
tecedent to the passage of the statute. This
act comes within the clear meaning of the
clause in the Constitution, that Congress shall
pass no (xpodjado law or bill of attainder.
No rights can be taken away by law, unless
the accused shall be first convicted of the of
fense charged, aud these rights include the
holding of tffiees of emolument and trust.
Such laws as that of 1865 were penal statutes.
The Attorney General had argued last Friday
that admission to practice in the courts is not
legal but is created by law and therefore may
be regulated by law and < ither given or taken
away ; but it is not true that Congress can, by
law, prohibit the appointment of counsellors
in the courts of the United States. The Con
stitution provides that parties charged with
crimes shall have the benefit of counsel, and
therefore Congress has no jurisdiction over
that subject. It is true that every court is
vested by the common law with the power to
make regulations to exclude improper officers,
but CoQgress lias no right to .say who shall or
shall net appear as counsel. The obligation
which is imposed on Congress to create courts
carried with it an obligation on the part of
the courts to admit counsel. The safety of the
cit'z n depends on the existence of the proviso
ion for tho admission of counsel. The pre
servatmn of liberty demands, as illustrated
by the history of the world, that there be
such a body of men.
In all revolutionary struggle, with
despotisms which have disgraced the
world, the accused have never been
denied counsel. Congress would convert
vert itself into a tyranny if while establishing
courts it would exclude such a class of men.
Tho act of Congress under review compels a
man to swear against himself, while no power
is given to the court to inquire into the facts.
No man by the Constitution is compelled to
testify against himself. The petitioner, with
others, was involved in an effort to establish
their separate independence of the authority
of the United States, and resisted it by levying
war. The punishment for treason anterior to
the passage of the act of 1865, was death, but
this act imposes an additional penalty that
persons thus accused shall not be admitted as
ottornoj-o in tko XJ Id. , Oauvt* 1
1862 passed a law saying whenever the Presi
dent deemed proper he might declare a gener
al amnesty, while the Constitution confers
upon him the exclusive power of granting
pardons and reprieves. The pardon places
the recipient of it in the position he stood be
fore the commission of the crime ; makes! him
anew man, and divests Min of all antecedent
consequences.
Suppose this law of 1866 had been made a
part of the act for the punishment of treason,
and a man committing crimes had been pat
doned, would it not also have exempted him
from the punishment for the offense, and pre
vented him from being excluded from practic
ing as an attorney in the United States Courts.
Tho pardon covers every part of the offense,
and Congress cannot, after the pardon has been
granted, pass a law to punish for the offense
pardoned. The disgraceful fact is presented
to the world, that Congress undertakes to in
terfere by denying the power of pardon, as
conferred by the Constitution exclusively on
the President, without limit. Congress cannot
say to the petitioner you shall be tried for
treason, after having been pardoned. If this
falls true of one class of crimes it is true of all
others. Mr. Johnson quoted from various judi
cial opinions to fortify the points of argument
by him presented.
IXTEHXAL REVENUE DKCISIOX-TAX ON
ALL KINDS OF CLOTHING.
Treasury Department, }
Office Internal Revenue,
Washington, December 2, 1865. )
Sir In answer to your letter of November
13, in relation to dresses, I have to say that
the ftx on clothing, or articles of dress for I
the wear of men, women or children is six per
emtum ad valorum, that is, six cents on the
fioilat, or six dollars on every hundred dollats
of the valuo of the clothing or articles A
garment worth, or which sells for .ten dollars
is to bo taxed sixty cents. If it sells for
twenty dollars, the tax is one dollar and twen
ty cents and so on. The tax, in all cases, is
on the value of the garment, and not simply
on the cost of making.
Whether a dressmaker furnishes the material,
or makes up material furnished by others tho
tax is the same ou the entire value of tho arti
cles made. In the latter case, however, the
tailor has the right to collect the tax from the
owner of the material or party for whom he
makes the articles. The law provides tho tol
lowing exemptions :
1. Any dressmaker whose product does not
exceed the rate of six hundred dollars per
annum, or fifty dollars per month, and shall be
ma le by her own labor, or the labor of her
own family, is exempt from duty.
2. Any dressmaker exclusively engaged in
manufacturing clothing, or articles for the
wear of men, women or children to order, as
custom work, and not for sale who
shall make affidavit that the entire amount of
her manufactures so made, do not exceed one
hundred dollars per annum, Is exempt from
duty.
These are the proisvions nf the law on this
subj ct, and the officers of Internal Revenue
are bound to enforce them until altered or re
j pealed by law.
On no single subject have more letters been
! written in this office than on that of the lia
| bility of tailors, milliners, dressmakers, etc,
and the Commissioner is welt aware that there
I may be apparent inequality and cases of real
j hardship. Future legislation will doubtless
j apply a suitable remedy in all cases, but while
1 the law remains as it now is, the tax must be
| assessed substantially as I have indicated
above.

Causzs of Rubdkn Death.—Very few of the
sudden deaths which are said to arise from :
diseases of the h --art do really arise from that
cause. To ascertain tho real origin of sudden
death-c an experiment hes been tried in Europe,
and reported to a scientific congress held at
Strasbourg. Sixly-sts cases of sudden death
were made the subject of a thorough post
mortem examination ;in these cases only two
were found who rad died from disease of the
heart. Nine out of sixty-six had died from ap
oplexy, while there were forty-six eases of con
gestion of the lungs—that is, the lungs were so
full of blood they could not work, there not
being room enough for a sufficent quantity of
air to enter to support life. The causes that
produce congestion of the lungs are—cold feat,
tight clothing, costive bowei3, sitting stiil
until chilled after being warmed with labor or
a rapid walk, going too suddenly from a close,
heated rocm into the cold air, especially after
speaking, and sudden depressing news opera
ting on the blood. These causes of sudden
death being known, an avoidance of them may
serve to lengthen many valuable lives, which
would otherwise be lost under the verdict of
heart complaint. That disease is supposed to
be inevitable and incurable ; hence many may
not take the pains they would to avoid
sudden death if they knew it lay in their
power.
