Lee, which has a be*ri?.g apoa a matter th it hi* be^n much discaseed iu the new^-iper* liteiy. In 1863, the Richmond city eoaiicif appropriated $60v000, ''for the pnrchA'e of a * 3 /"* 1 a house anil lot to oe tencereu uvucru Robert E. Lee and family, free of rent." When General Lee heard of the action of the city council of Richmond be wrote the following letter: Headqu&rters Army Northern Virginia, November 12,1863 To the President of the City Council, Richmond, Va.: Sir?My attention has t>< en directed to a resolution reported in the newspapers as having been jintroduc^l imo the body over which yoa preside, having for its object thepurch^e by the city of Richmond of a hon e for the use" of my family. I assure you, sir, that no waut of < pfrecia ion ot the honor conferred upon me b> this resolution or insensibility to the kind feeling which prompted it, induce! me to ask, a* 1 most respectfuly do, that no further proceedings be taken with reference to the subject The house is not necosiry for the u?e of my family *nd my own duties will prevent my residence in Richmond. T ,J ka ffi decline the generons t ffer, and trast that whatever means the city coanci] may have :o sp?re for this pnrpose aaay be devoted to the relief of the families of onr soldiers in the field, who are more in need of as?si>tance and more deserving of it than myself. I have the honor to be, very respectfully, Yonr obedient servant, R. E. Lee, General. Speaking A this letter the Charlotte Observer says: Richmond Pearson Hobson his faiien into some disfavor oecause ne ailowei too nuny women to kiss him in public; aud yet it is recalled in this conn c;ion that after his performance at Santiago l.is neighbors at Greensboro, Ala., sprung a project to raise money to lift a mortgage o?i his father's bouse, bat that the young man said No; he would payoff that mortgage him?e!f, which he his done, and in addition to which he is educating a young sister at one of the best schools at the South. Bat this is enongh to say, for comparisons are.odorous. The atmosphere of the Souih or something is not suitable tor the pro dcction ot men who like houses as giftsSTATE OIL IXSPECTOS. W3 notice from (hi Aagusta Chronicle ihat i bill if? now pending in the Georgia Legislature at the instance oi Hon. 0. B. Stevens, commissioner ol agriculture, ''for the purpose of perfectiD;? the system of oil inspecting in the State of Georgia." Another instance of what a loss the abolition of the department of agriculture hag been to South Carolina. me xacc in&i georgia u? a imolguj of oil inspection has suggested to ns that Sonth Carolina might have such a system with great profit and benefit to the citizens of the State. We have seen oil sold in this State that was worth very little more than water foi illuminating purpose?, and merchants would say, upon inquiry, that tbey weie powerless to prevent it. Some timee it is almost impossible to buy good kerosene. A system of inspection would prevent such swindles, and tbc duty of inspecting meal, flour, &cM might also be added to the daties oi tbe i3?pector. Says the Augusta Chronicle in reference to the Georgia bill: Another important feature of tbe bill is tbe one providing for a StHte A ?4- ~ ~ ~ UmiIwaoo if will ha inspector, wuuae uumhwo k. .?? ? from time to time, to visit the varioupoints in the State where thero are oil Inspectors, and to see that their work is conducted in accordance with the provisions of the it.w. In all departments of business and in other branches of the Siate government it has been deemed proper to have these supervising officers whose business it is to inspect the work of local agents and keep it up to the standard. It is believed by the commissioner that the office of S:afe oil inspector will not only pzy for itself, but arid a consider able sum to toe revenues ieueivcu uj the State from tne Inspection of lilominatin^ oiiR. This measure will come before tbe senate for action i?the next dny or two, and it is believed wi 1 pas3 (he upper house as it did ia ihe lovrer. Ir will be noted thai the balief is expressed "that the office of State oil insDcctor witl not oo!y pa* for itself, but add a comiderably enm to the revenues received by (be State." We suggest that some member of the South Carolina General Assembly eeod for a copy of this bill. It is certain'? worth while to inquire into the operation of the law iu Georgia. We need a State oil inspector Ge:-7. Wood is not ouly a splendid soldier, bat he has plenty of good hard common 6ense. He has been a succsss in Cuba, and we are glad to see that he is elated to succeed Gen^ Sternberg as surgeon-general of the army wh?n the latter retires next June.

With this tax out of the way, panics could rage in New 1'ork as long as the money power choee without affecting every little community in ths South. With the resources of the South as security the currency of our State banks "will command confidence at home, and a temporary stringency can be relieved without applying to iNRW iorK. xlic wuouiu'ivi? ? the tax has been before the Supreme Court, bat that was just after the Tar, and all of thejadges who took part in the decision are dead. Justice Davis' dissenting opinion ia that ca?e is jast unanswerable. It woaid not su-'priso as if the court as at present constituted and under present conditions would fo:!ow the line of Judge Davis' opinion. SIOSST DALE NEWS.
