Whon the capiral of Alabama was evacuated the
battle-flags wercromoved by Governor THOMAS H.
WATTS, who had them carefully preserved near

Mr. D. C. WHITMAN, Deputy-Coinuiissioner of ? (
Internal Revenue, Washington, has instructed thc
Assessor of the 1st District of Tennessee, that, in
assessing the tax of two cents per pound on cot?
ton, he may make a reasonable allowance for bag?
ging and rope, instead of assessing thc tax ou tho
gross w.ight. lu accordance with these instruc?
tions, thc Assessor has fixed twenty pounds per
bale as a reasonable allowance. The instructions
of the Commibsioner are, however, uot to allow
any rofuudmeut to those who may already have
paid two cents on tho gross weight, lie says (hat
thc allowance is a '.'matter of liberality rather
than right."

CHARLESTON.
FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY 12, lPCG.
IT REQUIRES but a very casual observation
of occurrences around as to perceive a very
decided improvement upon that condition of
affairs presented by tho last summer. To thc
citizen, returning to his homo after years of
oxile, tho scenes presented were especially
repulsive. The homes of honored citizons
seem to have been industriously filled with
negroes; our public halls were the head?
quarters of officers, with whom intercourse
was necessary, and who often seemed to feel
that it was a part of their duty to give us a
realizing sense of subjugation; the Citadel
afforded quarters to a colored regiment, whose
ovening exercises brought together thousands
upon thousands of idle and disorderly ne?
groes; colored soldierB stalked tho streets;
colored women in flaring finery thronged
the thoroughfares; plantation negroes in
thousands sprawled upon the curb-stoncs and
hung around the commissary department of
the Freedmen's Bureau; buildings were still
scarred and broken by shells; grog-shops
were open everywhere ; but hotels, all
but one, were cloted ; and, though business
in the way of merchandize was active-more
goods were sold perhaps than arc sold now
but in all things else it was stagnant. No
mills, machinery, or collateral trades or en?
terprises wero in operation; our young men
returning in want from thc army were with?
out thc opportunity or the hopo of employ?
ment : much of our properly was in the hands
of thc Freedmen's Bureau, without Ihr- pres-1
cut means nf its recovery or thc assurance ;
that it ever would i>c restored; and over alli
were thc gloomy apprehensions of still greater
political evils, which ,we lind not, of our-:
selves, the power to avert
in many respects it must be confessed that
there has boon a change for the better. Col-.
ored troops arc no longer quartered in thc
Citadel; negroes have been removed from
lite houses of our citizens: officers no longer
industriously impress us with a sense of sub-.
jugation ; colored soldiers and colored women
uo longer monopolizo the streets; thc injuries
from thc bombardment have been generally
repaired : tho droves of idle negroes have
been sent to tho country or absorbed by busi;
ness ; property, to :t great extent, has been
restored ; our young men have generally
found something to which they can turn their
willing hands ; mills, machine-shops, foun?
dries, trades and collateral enterprises have
been started : civil law has been restored ;
fctvil officers have entered on their functions:
tho aspect of our political fortunes has bright?
ened ; thc States, though barred from Con?
gress, arc recognized by thc Government as I
soustituents of thc Union ; and, although our j
?ondition is not yet such as we wish it wero : j
though when coming to its full realization
wc find our losses greater, our prospects more
gloomy than wc might have hoped they would
be; though negroes in rural districts still re?
fuse to work,-aud on the islands aro in a state
af insurrection ; and, though our city is
heavily charged with debt, and must incur
still greater charges in tho way of restora?
tion and repair : and, although wo are forced
to forego, for tho present, the hopes of much
jf that business upon which the fortunes of
jur city had depended, still wo are conscious
the coast is clear; that impediments aro re-1
moved ; that in business matters we aro pos?
sessed of tho situation; that wo have our
work before us, which, hard as it may be, is
still within our grasp; that if we cannot
make the negroes work as efficiently us wo
:ould wish, wo can make them serviceable to |
?onie extent, or at least wc can work our- j
.elves ; that if our estates do not give us for- j
unes, they will at least give us a support;!
iud that, with patience, prudence and econo- j
ny, for which all are prepared, thoro is now
lie reasonable assurance of a condition of!
.vcll-being and happiness as attractive asmen ?
isually enjoy, while there is the further com- j
br table assurance that matters must contin- j
lally improve ; that negroes, though some of .
beni may starve, must ultimately come to
,rork : that even our diminished agricultural
Mroducts must bring capital into the country;
h: t foreign labor must bc attracted hythe
'xtraordinary inducements offered ; that cul
ivation must become more and more ex?
panded ; that our communication will extend
hither into the country, .md through moro i
irosperuua sections; and that more trade
viii como to our city ; and that its business
nust revive and expand : and our present
?tate is brightening, therefore, by at least
his one reflection, that it is at the worst ;
hat external impediments are removed; that
?very change must be for the bettor, and every
.tcp, small as it may be, n step to a more at?
ractivo futu-o.
It were but au act of justice to our present
ni li tory authorities to confess that they havo ?
uhipted a policy which tends greatly to tho I
inproved condition of our affairs, and that j
:ln*ir efforts aro directed, with great prudence
iud judgment,'tu the return of order and tho;
proper wttst! of responsibility among our col- !
.red population. Tho rights of property ure '
moderated and sustained, and they arc fa- j
rorcd i?y t'.ie securities, tts far as thc military
?ovcrnine.iit .-an give them, that they may
inter on their operations safely and push
.bein, without disturbance, to successful re
.nits f?enernl SICKLES seems to bc fully
inproseW wiih the conviction that the order
;n ! pu grc?s of the ceuntry depends nnon the 1
Ability of planters to Ije masters of the situa?
tion upon their places, and to this end he
gives them all tho assurances they cnn roa
Bonobly require.
TAKING for granted, for the sake of argu?
ment, nr rather to avoid argument, that the.
people of the South have, hy thc late Te volu?
tion, forfeited all of their political right?,
and can$ with justice, bc debarred thc privi?
lege of representation in thc Congress of thc
United Stales till Euch timo shall arrive when
they may bo taken back, like tho prodigal
son, into thc folds of the old flag; taking
j this for granted, wc would like to propound
a pertinent (wo hope not an impertinent)
tpiery.
By what "*odc of constitutional or unconsti?
tutional 1 -vs have the "powers that be7'
in Washington tho ability to abate a single
iota of the rights of an American citizen
who chooses permanently to remove his dom
, icil from one part of tho United States to
another? And who shall say that a citizen
of New York in choosing to become tveitizen
of Charleston shall thereby forfeit a singlo
j right or privilege due him as a citizen of thc
United States? We would Fiiggesfcto our
friends in tho No?sf.h. to fight their battle and
ours on this new field.
Sleeting of thc Uar.
A meeting of tbe Bar of Charleston was held at
tho Court Room ou yesterday, for thoJpurpoBO of
1 testifying their rospoct to tito memory of tho late
HENRY A. Dc SAUSSURE, thc senior member at thc
time of his death. On motion, IIICUARD YEADON,
Esq., was called to thc Chair, and THOMAS Y.
SIMONS, Esq., requested to act as Secretary. On
taking thc chair, Mr. YEADON made thc following
address :
Urethren nf the nar :
Wo nre assembled to discharge a melancholy but not
ungrateful duty-to lay tho offering of affectionate re?
spect on the bier of departed worth. Tho venable aud
venerated Hr.aRY A. UKSAUSSUW:, tho patriarch of tho
Charleston liar, after a long life of usefulness and honor,
h is been gathered to h's fathers, anil ours is ibo filial
office of sorrowing for his loss, and doing honor to his
memory. Ho was thc last survivor of that distinguished
legal brotherhood Ot a past goneraiion, of which thc
h amed King, find the accomplished Petigrn, ulasl nl.su
reomly numbered with the dead, were eminent mem?
bers, and which nave digi ity mid Inatro to oar profoa
(.imi. Let tlie Kanona of l?>ny principio and high-toned
[courtesy which they inculcated IMI cherished ny us as
( viml'l?s and models fur imitation. Thu veneradlo de?
ceased wa? vn-ging toward* fonr-Bwireyears, when, still
in barnes?, bc waa called to meet thc common doom of
humanity; and seldom lian so long an earthly pil?
grimage been illustrated by a larger mrn-ojro ol useful?
ness and virtue. Exemplary in every domestic relation,
and honorably rorvicealde in publia life, hu won the es
tecm amt reverence of tho community in which ho
lived. Thc State Society of the Cincinnati bone red him
a' their presiding officer: thc orphans of thc city were
officially ti c objects of his benevolent and paternal care;
thc client found in him a faithful andaalu counsellor;
thejiuiinr members of the liar were debtors to hil kind
ness and courtesy, mid yielded bim, in return, their
affectiOttatfl homage ; tin. State appreciated him r.s a
patriotic Bon, true to lier in the durkest h<uir of her dca
tiny, and thc templo of religion numbered him among
the pions worshippers of his God.
Thc Chair is now ready to receive the testimonials
befitting tho occasion.
General SIMONS, after a few prefatory remarks,
then offered the following memorial and resolu?
tions :
Tho Bar of Charleston have assembled to-day, in this
Ume-hOUOred Temple of Justice, to oller a becoming
.tribute of respect to the memory ufa beloved and much
cst CC medmcU Iber of their fraternity.
The congratulations which we might naturally ex- !
change with each other in reassembling, as servitors, j
and ministers of Justice in this sacred edifico, after the |
deplorable events of the last five years, are cheeked and
saddened by thc gloomy recollections which crowd them- !
solves within Hint period. We look in vain union-four
run lt s for nonio of InoM brilliant hiiniiiuricn'9t the pro- I
(basion, who dignified und exalted thu science of law, hy
their wisdom and learning, their experience and virtues'.
We have already sacrificed fraternal offering! at the
tombs ol' one-third of thc number ol* mir brethren,
whose voices but lately mingled in tho debates at thin
bar ; some full on the ensanguined Held, and some have
gone down to the grave before their time, and before
tliey had tilled the full tueaiairo of their well-deserved
honors. Thc administration of publie justice hus been
Buspendrd ; the law silenced : and everything about and
around UM proclaim*! the gloom, and reveals .? thc purple
testament of bleeding war." Eliam hoc sardinia sordibus
ubiqu? contamination, ct a jiristina Splendor*, hms!
quam Umge. rtmotun !"
Saddened by these reflections, and amidst thnso
scenes, wu now add another name to thc mclnneholy
catalogue of tho lamented dead.
HENNY A. DESACSSURK, Esq., tho eldest practitionor
and ono of the oldest members of thc profession in this
stuie, lias ceased to live. He was born on t'.c 15th Sep?
tember, 1783, and hud just completed his seventy-seventh
your. He came into lifo and wits reared, so to speak, in
tho very atmospboru of thc Science'of Law. His lather
was a celebrated Chancellor, and was in SOB tn Carolina
as D'Agucsscau in Franco, the protagonist of Equity. It
is not surprising that .Mr. LEMAUSSUIIE should havo
carly imbibed the principles of that profession, of which
his father was a muster. He devoted himself to its study
and practice, with singular perseverance and industry,
during a long life. Ho enjoyed a very large and lucra?
tive practice, in wi. Ich he was engaged chiefly on tho
Equity sido of the] Court, and was well versed in thc
"prolegomena" of that branch of tho law; and by his
thorough appreciation of tho ethics of tho profess;- ti,
and his fidelity in conducting thc business confided to
his management, he received th? confidence of bis
brethren, and secured the unswerving adhorencu of his
citas ts.
His Intercourse with the Hench and Bar was distin?
guished by tho samo dignity and courtesyw h ich gave a
peculiar charm to his manners iii the social circle; and
his elevated scute of honor, and unbending integrity
and purity of life, were justly appreciated and rewarded
by tho universal respect aud veneration of tho whole
community.
It is by thc cultivation of such an example an our late
venerable brother has set before us, that thu dignity
and honor of our noble profession must ever bc main?
tained, aud he that will keep steadfastly before him such
models for his guidance, wiil pass through the manifold
trials and temptations of a lawyer's chequered career
integer vita:, sctlfrisquepurus.
Ju token of our sentiments on this occasion, be it
Resolved, That tho Bar of Charleston hereby tostify
their veneration and esteem for their late brother, HE . HY
A. UKSAI:SSI-HK, Esq., and that they will ever cherish his
memory, and the example hu s.-t buforo thu fraternity,
as well by his virtues in private life, as by his honor and
integrity in the exercise of his profession.
Resolved, That too Bur condole with his family in
their bereavement, and tender them their cordial .sy ni -
patby.
Resolved, That tho Chairman of this meeting present
the foregoing preamble and these resolutions to his
Honor, tho presiding Judge of tho Court of Common
Pleas, now lu session in this city, with tho request that
they may bo recorded in the minutes of tho Court.
Resolved, That a copy of these proceedings bo tranr
mitte l to rho family of thc deceased, and that the samo
be published in the daily nowspupers of tie city.
Judge W. A. PRINGLE seconded tho resolutions,
and spoke as follows :
lt is with feelings of filial reverence that I rise to
second tho preamble mid resolutions, which havo just
been offered, in rcferonco to our departed and venerable
associate. Tho claims of an hereditary friendship-tho
respect and regard which I entertained for him-thu
many and repeated instances of kindness which I have
received from bira-forbid my being silent on Un: occa?
sion of this exhibition ot the esteem with which ho was
held by his feUoW-men, It falls to the lot of but very
few of all those who are born aud dio to livo so long a
life as Mr. BESAUSstmE, aud to havo lived it so well.
Pew men go down to tho gravo so full of years, and use?
fulness, and honor. In every relation of lifo, few men
have held up to others so high a stand ird for their ex?
ample and ?mulation^? In uU thu social and domestic
relations-in all the dunes of his profession-in all thc
debt which bc owed to the community-few men havo
so faithfully played their part. Emphatically a gentle?
man of the old school, ho was conspicuous for his cour?
tesy and amenity of manners. Ho was the dispenser of
a large and generous hospitality. His homo was the
refuge of the widow and the orphan-his roof the shel?
ter of all who had lite claim of necessity and want. In
bis profession, DO man was more laborious and assidu?
ous. His industry was a proverb. Labor was h ?B pleas?
ure and tho. happiness of bis life. His extensivo and
varied practice attracted a largo number of students.
and his office was tho nursery of the Bar. His life
lonchad the extremes of tho two great revolutions which .
have convulsed his country, and seems to havo been
prolonged in order to trans uit to a younger generation
.in example of the virtues which ennoble and dignify
human life, and which, amid all thc vicissitudes of for?
tune, and thu changes of States and Empires, can rouder
it calm and peaceful ut thc last.
After which they were unanimously adopted, and
tho meeting adjourned.
The Cout t having entered into session, Mr. YEA?
DON, as chairman of thc meeting, tendered to tho
Court, with sonic remarks, thc resolutions that J
liad been adopted, to which Jud^o ALDIUCU made j
the following response :
G'nllemen nf Hie -Her :
Thoso dispensations of Providenco which excite ns J
BO mournfully frequently find :i moro cloquent expr?s- [
alon than in words. I fully npproM^te tue propriety
of yourprorw'diiigs as members of this Par. and rcgrnt
that, as thc Presiding Judge or tin- Ccurt, I cannot reply
to jour toin-hing tribute with thc s-mo propriety nf
language I remember your sciiior, Mr. DF.SAC.-SIT.T-:.
linn my boyhood; ho was tho pattern ol' propriety and j
professional ihy.nily- so kind, so gentle, and PO cour-1
(conn, that all who approached him felt i hat ho was in
tim presence of a Carolina, gentleman. Asa lawyer, ho
waa tin'wis.- counsellor and Hie faithful friend, No
man ever, carno tn lum with abad cause and received
encouragement to proceed ? no man over came toi.im
with a just canse but what lu- f Mini] tin- finest otuotions
of thc human ncart exerted, and tho largest ein-ouni|;c
ment to seek right and justice; bc never deserted a iriend
or a client; ho loved the young men who wero coa
vag forward at tho Bar, and always encouraged them on
tho stormy path of professioncl advancement. Years
after I han been called to the liar, I well romember that
thc old gentleman once said to mc, in his ofllce : "I
always watch t;ic career of tho young men that wo sond
out from tho city, and nothing la moro pleasant ti mc
than to seo them succeed." lt was just such kind
speeches that stimulated youth, and drew them towards
the old man with love and veneration. I need not speak
of him as a pubUc-spirited citizen-that Orphan llonso
is his monument I cannot speak of him in his domes?
tic relations-theso sons aro his witnesses.
My brothers, Death has oeen very busy in our ranks
since we were young together. Mr. Grlmke, Mr. Hunt,
Mr. King, and last, but not least. Mr. Pctigro, aro in
their graves, and now wc aro paying tho last sad tributo
to tho good, tho wise, thc kind and thc beloved DE
SADSSUUE. These were all beforo our time; they wero
our lights and guides. But when I look around this
Bar and remember the modest room in which we used to
assemble up Blairs, I miss Porcher, and Walker, and
Priolcan, and Ashby, and Jones, oud Northrop, and All?
ston, and good Nelson Mitchell, tho greatest lawyer of
us all. These commenced to fight tho battle of Ufo with us
all; and Porter, and Simons, andLcsesne, and Magrath,
and Brewster, and myself, aro all that remain. But
which of ns will say that it is not better for them, and
for our seniors, to rCRt calmly and peacefully In their
graves than Uko us, to bc the living witnesses of tho
humiliation nf our beloved South Carolina?
Gentlemen, I forbear to pursue thia train of thought.
Mr. Clerk. Let tho resolutions be entered in thc
Journal of thc Court.
