A despatch from Austin, Nevada, to-1 night, gives the particulars of a horrible tragedy in Smoky Valley, in thr ?tate. It appears that Christopher Reckawdn had been, for a long time, jealous of bia wife, j > cx'nacql?ea?e of attentions paid to] er by a young man named Norton,] and they had frequent quarrels about h:m. j Yesterday, a man named Oaterhaus went j to Keckstein's house, and receiving no re sponse to his demads for admission, he broke open the door. On the floor lay the naked body of Mrs. Reckstein, cut into pieces, and her head split open. At her feet were the bodies of their two little girls,;their heads ne;: rly severed from their bodies, and near by lay the dead bodies of Reck stein and young Norton, grappled as in a death struggle. Reckstein grasped in his right hana a large bowie-knife, covered with blood ; and in Norton's right hand was a dragoon pistol, two chambers of which were discharged. There is no living witness to the terrible affair. ATLANTA, GA., April 2. The Direct Trade Union of the Patrons ] of Husbandry was organized to day, by the election of A, H.

From the New York Tribune, Rep?blica Thc account we print of the interv? between the Presid. nt and the represent ttves of the South Carolina taxpuyi may afford some further information, any who are in want of it, of the strict private and personal character our go ernnient has assumed. This body of ge tietuen, representing the intelligence ai decency ot the State, all of them peoj ivho have honestly accepted the results tue Wai, ami who are striving with a jj tience and energy worthy'of all praise ?save something of their ?State s existes Trot?! tl.i- v.sii builds which are rapidly d stioying il| sought an interview with ti President on Friday last lo la . before hi the deplorable ?late ot ali'airs among thel and to ask if any aid could be giveu I the General Govern men t. They we treated by him with gn>?s rudeness ai discourtesy, for a reason so trivial that is almost "incredible. During thc ~ece Iscstioh ol' the .Taxpayers' Convention SuutB Curolma, an obscure and rattl brr med delegate got the Hour and ma a.Bpeech personally disrespectful to i Piesident. There is no pretence that embodied the views of the Convention, that his harangue met with their appro al. But this speech, dexterously thru iuUi the President's bauds bv one ol t Kmg polnieians just before the delegalji caliea upon him, was enough io make hi forget his own duty and dignity and i suit an important body of citizens wi were no more responsible for it than t President himself. We do not mean that tv? are ??king i anything practicable. On the contrai we can see nothing but evil.in any inte terence of the government, so long as remiting in the present hand?, with t admiui.-ira'ioa yf the ?tates. If Gu Grant Lad Hoi mau* i.|i< incident the ooo sion for ah mdei-oroutj outbiittd 0? arr gane and passion, we should be ineiini to congratulate him upon having made ] long step forward in the theory and pra j tice of constitutional law, since the tic j when ne ient tUv whole power of the Fe j eral government to th? knaves who we ! throttling and robbing the Stat* of fcon: j ?ana. But the animus which pervadi { his refusal to aid the honest people ! South Carolina was such as to render impossible for any one to believe that h action"proceeded from anything but tl same passional* and selfish caprice wln< induce I bim tu do piwjselv the contrai tiling, when Casey and Kellogg want? their hold tightened upon the tjiiost Louisiana. In fact, in this performan we see once more what has been so lor evident, that President Grant bas nev associated any idea of duty or restions bility with his acceptance ot office. He wi elected the first time to i}*y bim for h services in the war, and the second tiffi he thinks, to answertbe criticisms of tho who thought him unfit for the place, E regards all criticisms as disloyalty, at looks upon a sharp attack, like that of tl harum-scarum South Carolinian, as thing so monstrous as to taint and di qualify for th? lime being the State : which it occurred. We cannot say the is anything new in tibie. Two year? ag Mr. Sumner made a great historical spsecj in which the President's character wi drawn with a fidelity fare in coteiuporam ous writing. He was there held up SB habitual tr&W.sgreBsor of the com mani msnt most biuding upon Presidents " Thou shalt not quarrel." it is too hai a lesson for the present incumbent to kan He has not magnanimity enough to ove look controversies; he has not publ: spirit enough to avoid them in the intel eat of the country ; and he has not tas I enough to know when to ?jSafrel with di coram. Gen. Grant and Inflation. In his first inaugural in 1869 Gel Grant declared tau- admiring Am<?no? public that " the return to a specie basi mast be provided for as aeon as it can b accomplished without material dal rim on to the debtor class or to .he country a larfte." The first act that was presenta to him for his approval by the Congres of his rirty, after he became Presiden! was ent H "an act to strengthen th public cr .dit," and pledged the Govern ment anew to an carly resumption of spe cie payments. Such waa the promise un der which Grant began his first adminis tration, and so did his Congress back hin up in it. Yean have rolled bv, one ad ministration has ended and a new one i entered apon, and now we find his Con gress in both branches with paper-mone: inflation on the brain, turning its bael upon all the learning and experience o the world, running headlong away fron the promised "specie bash" and plunging the business of the country into a will monetary debauch, certain io wind up ii panic and ruin. The votes in Congress oi the incipient measures of inflation leavi no doubt what respect that branch of thi government means to pay to its promises Gen. Grant has yet to show his hand, am to let the country know what he know! about finance, and what he thinks abeu the value of the promises of a Radica Silitician. Some of our brethren bavi iib. enough to be "gratified to learn or the best authority," that General Gram adheres to his previous "convictions,' (that is what they call them), and that be ing a "very obstinate man," he will 'stick," and that any act of permanent inflation that may come to him from th? Capitol must "run the gauntlet of his veto." To all of which we say, "sec quere f" When the man is found wis? enough to inform an anxious and enquir ing world, "who struck Billy Patterson?" he will be able to tell us beforehand what Ulysses the Oracle will propound on a given subject. Our heroic President is, is an unstable ?tatesman, a great success. We remember how he whitewashed the Sooth to Andy Johnson, after his return from his mission to it immediately after the war. " And we certainly have not for gotten how he became her head inquisitor, when fortune placed him at the head ol the party of Radical inquisitors. We re member a great many other good things he was going to do for us. and how, some way or another, they were never born to the light-not even in shape and stature of the mountain's "ridiculous mouse." There is but one answer to the query " will Grant veto inflation?" It is in the words of old Father Ritchie-iVbus Ver rons.-Mobile Register. The Rural Carolinian Tor April.

The following is tho extract Crom thc Speech of our townntan, Gen. M. W Gary, which has 30 aroused thc hitherto phlegmatic and immovable President of tliH United Staten, delivered in thc lari; Tax-payers Convention of S, C "I, for one, am unwilling lo bo knock in}; at the door of tho White House un political or other favors; I am willing to concedo that (inuit is 11 jrrcitt soldier, fit to have stood:by Caesar, Napoleon, Wil liam tho Conqueror or Washingi. n, it nccdsbe, and gi vc direction in kittie; but by accepting wt-en ts of groat value, in throwing th*? respoiiaibillia Inti.?11 wrtttTTsk and Gould, whereby ?io Iliade twenty-five thousand dollars, upon his wife ho lia's tarnished and thrown away a fame that might have perpetuated hi? ndme for all time." We must confess that wo area little surprised at the display of sensitive ness and niger on account of tho above charges, whicli has beon exhibited by tho imperturbable President. The lind jhaige, as many will remen? ber, and as can be proved to all, was contained iu the speech of the late Charles H. Sumner, delivered in the Senate Chamber of the United States. The second charge, as to the President's throwing the responsibility of the V Black Friday" gold speculation, whore by is said to have made Twenty five thousand' ?oiiat&, upon his wife, was published, at tho time, in aiiLOsf pyery Newspaper in the United States, and w?s the occasion of the witticism of the late .Jame* Fisk, the President's then inti mate 1 riflfl4i who ? ben examined before a committee- as id who jj; point of fact received the twenty-five thousand dol?an?, replied, .' It wont where the woodbine twineth." The exact meaning or application of Mr Fisk's phrase we do not pretend to explain.

C., Mar., 1874. j Dear Sir: I bog leave to call your at tention to the following resolutions pass od at the Tax Payers' Convention-, with the hop? that the matter will bo speedily taken in hand by the people, and pushed successfully. I have been assured by competent au thority, that with Ten Thousand Dollm---, and Fifty Thousand Acres of Land do na ted, some Ten Thousand Families may be brought to the State by next winter. Without inducements to offer to immi grants, n^ne w^il come, as the Wast, and other Southern States, are in tho 1- Md to get all the immigrants that come. Ten nessee, for instance, has offered ono hun dred thousand acres of land grat?"; to be divided iu alternate sections to immi grant families ; and Virginia has appro priated $15,000 for the same-purpose. I am happy to say, ."that in some Dis trict? of the Zitate, the people have offered lands at very low pri?es, and given some gratis, but the movement should ba gen eral, and every District should do all in its power to induce 1111 migrants to settle in our Stat?. Respectfully, F. I .ELC1IERS, Commissioner of Immigration. Resolved, That this Convention do at once organize a Bureau of Immigration, to consist of one Commissioner for the State at large and one Commissioner for each County in the State, to reside at or near tho County seat. Resolved, That it shall be the duty of each County Commissioner of Immigra tion to call a meeting of the cit ?zens ol' each County, who are in favor of white immigration, to be held at the Court Mouse of his County, on the first Mon day in March, proximo, and lay before them tho subject and importance of im migration, and, if possible, elfect a per manent organization to act lu concert with, and as an auxiliary to, the Com missioner of the State at large, and to take such further steps as may be deem ed necessary to promote tho object in view. Resolved, That it shall be the duty of the said County Commissioners of Immi gration to ascertain from the laud owners of the County what lauds are to be sold or given away, as the case may be, and if for sale, on what terms ; and to take down and procure for reference n brief description and location thereof, and re port the same, from time to time, to tho Commissioner for tl?e State at large, so that when immigrants arrive in the County thoy may at once bo provided for. lt shall also be his duty to collect such contributions in money from the citizens for the promotion of the cause of'immi gration, as they may be willing to con tribute, and forthwith turn thesaineover to the Commissioner for thc State nt largo, talcing his receipt for thc same. ?CnAiu.Bs i'0N'.

LEWIS JONES,-Dear A'.v.- COR KratuluilnK yo*> on your appointment as Commissioner of Immigration, I would bog leave to call your attention to the programme of the Taxpayers Conven tion. The first stop at your Meeting' would be to collect from the land-owners a statoment of such lands as-they aro de sirous of selling, pr of giving away, to I immigrants. Selling lauds cheap, or I giving them in alternate sections, free, I to immigrants, is the host means to draw j good immigrants to your County. It j will bring those who have rooney to commence a farm with, and also those who seek work. It will also be necessa ry to collect some money to pay agents ir. Europe, and advertiso the lands do nated'.

For tho present, I would not lie able to send you any immigrants. But very few aro coming, and for thoso I have ci ders to extent of over ?00. If ibo pro', gramme of thc Convention however is carried out, I hope to bc able to bring 10,000 families into the State by next win;er. If you take orders; for immi grants, do so for next fall ; and if the people desire Irish or other Catholics, I will be happy to send such Immigrants OS have not thc means to pay their o Wi) passage.

Mr. fiiOftfeft, fing of the editors and proprietors of the Chariesiou Vfiy?? it Courier, accompanied the Committee of Taxpayers to Washington, and writes back, among others, the following inter esting letter: ? WASHINGTON, March 31. The memorial pf the taxpayers of South Carolina is at last before "Congress. The wires havo already told 3'ou tfiat it wa* presented to-day in tho Senate by Senator Fenton, of New York, and in the House by Representative Dawes, of Massachusetts In both branches it was referred to the judiciary committee with out debate, the rule against any discus sion of petitions at tho time of their in troduction hoing absolute. The chair man of the Senate Judioiary committee is Edmunds, of Vermont, and Bon, Bntr 1er, of Massachusetts, heads thc same committee of the House. Upon the dis position of these two personages the chances of the memorial for considera tion at tho hand? of Congress now chiefly rest. Tue effort of tho di'logatjon will bo to obtain au early hearing of their case before tho two committees, und tho prospocts aro that this will be granted without dilliculty. Although tho delegation have delayed several dav? before formally bringing the memorial to the attention of Congress, it must not be supposed that thoy havo been idle. On the contrary, they have found that thero was so much that it was expodiont for them to do, that it W.HJ hopeless for the delegation, as a whole, to undertake it. Accordingly, yester day (Monday) morning a division of the labor was determined oh. The delega tion was divided into several sub-com mittees, each of which was charged with tho duty of visiting two or threo distin guished Republican officials and laying before them the pitiable plight of South Carolina. lu this way tho work has been done, ami well done. Vice-president Wilson received tho delegates with much warmth, and ap peared to take tho guatest interest m thoir caao. Fte made a very favorable impression upon his visitors.

This . appear to include all such notices a< to bo givoii by the county and a coij tion or in rolation to business conn with the corporation. This vic strengthened when weconsiderthe i be null and void. Second, such shall not be paid for from ihe furl the county. This provision certainly not apply in cases where tho advi ment is paid for by the party whe tho notice.
