WASHINGTON, August 1.-Evory ono is on llio
qui rice now for tho practical inovomonl on tito
|>ai't <if tho President, with rogard to n chango in
thu military commnndcrship or thu fifth District,
which has been acmi-oflicially announci d ns about
to occur. Tho matter is a subject of ovcry day
conversation, and many aro tho speculations in?
dulged in OB to tho ultimato result. Tho mnjoijjy
of those host informed as lo thc I'rcsidout's move?
ments, assert positively lliat Ibo ordor making thu
chango will bo issued thiB wcok, wliilo othors aro
equally emphatic in persist mg thnt nothing will i o
done in tho coso, c'.ting thin ns au instance similar
to others in which tho President has manifested a
disposition to cxecnto great State movements, but
i rom which purpnHO ho has olteu and ngniii Ticen
pcrsiinriod by unseen influoiicos from prosecuting.
Wo must wail and seo what is lo bo dona howevor
in this caHc. There nro thought to bo many
dillicultics in tho way, and somo oven hiul thal
tho President, by removing HUKUTUAN. would bo
brought into an issue with both tho Secrolary of
War H .d General Un ANT. Certain it is thut a now
controversy would bc oponod with Congress. Tho
Executive Department appears dclerniined how?
ever, and developments may como lo light in a
short limo hardly thought ol now.
Nu lit Ho interest is expressed in ofllcial circles
hero in relation to tho election which takes place
in Tcuucssco to-day. If it is conducted without
scricniB disturbances it will bo n very agreeablo
disappointinenl, as fears or such an occuiTonco,
woU qualified by recent events iu that unhappy
Stale, havo long been oxporionccd. That election,
and tho meeline or tho Republican Convention in
Richmond, both on tho aamo day, will bo among
thc important ovoids of this years history. Tho
authorities hero will overlook affairs in Tcuncssco
to-morrow by tho lightning aid or tho telegraph
wires, and, if necessary, ordors will flash from tho
headquarters of tho Gouoral-in-Chicf to tho scouo
of didiculty, ns in tho olden timo of war. Evory
precaution has boen likon, however, to provout
bloodshed, and thu i vsence of a good force of
United States troops ought cortoinly to do so.
Tho Nat iona! Intelligencer, of this morning, con?
tains a very scusiblo and well-time.! article ou tho
subject of tho disposition manifested hy substan?
tial and influential citizens in (ho South, lo doelino
participation in the work of reconstruction as Con?
gress propones, which, for (ho real merit and good
BciiBO that is emit.lined iii it, should bo read with'
no hnsty glanco. At tho rick of duplicating a
newspaper article-as it may beforo this is publish?
ed meet thc roaders of tho jvctrs-I append to this
paragraph a part of Ibo editorial, with tho an
nouncumcnl that its warning omi wisdom havo re?
ceived fir. in-able comment from many true frionds
inf thc unrepresented States. It is as follows :
Dut such citizens might do woll to romcinbor
that tho present ia au unnatural and temporary
condition or alia irs and that tho thno will Boon
como when I heir counsels will bo required, and
will bc duly appreciated, and whon their inlluonco.
both within their own States mid with tho General
llovcrnmciiL may bo bonoflcuiUy excrcisod. There?
fore, it ?H au ill-advised feeling OQ their part to
koop themselves ir? tho baekgrouud. Thoy might
at least show that thoy aro ready to take tho posi?
tion in political affairs to which tho voice of their
lcllow-citizcns may at some carly day nail thom.
Il would bo oxcocdingly Batislactnry to oousorva
tivo mon throughout tho North lo know that them
is a fur.-e. powerful in talent and worth, existing
in tho Mimili, thal will bo ovor watchful and ready
for *ho opportunity to aid in i edeeming tho coun?
try from tho hands of those who now misrulo it."
Il need not bo imagined thal thowido talk about'
tho certainty of tho country having Gen. CHANT
for tho next Presidency, which now exists, has
succeeded in getting a word out ot that oflicor as
to bis views of tho political tituation, and that
vory silence will, moro than anything olso, provent
nia nomination by a thorough Radical Convention.
It may bo surely predicted that if General GRANT
is nominated, it will bu by a Convention in which
conservativo delegates will figuro prominently. If
ho accepts tho nomination-with regard to which
it certainly docs not appear thal mortal mon can
assort clearly- ho will bo oloctcd. How long must
it bo beforo tho great soldier opona his month and
lolls tho world where bo Blanda on tho great isBuos
of tho hour ?
Mr. MERRICK, ono of tho counsel for tho defenoo
in tho Sonn Air trial, commoncod bia argument to
tho Jury this morning. It ie remarkable for its
bobine s i and power. As usual tho Court room
was crowded. Moro of tho prisoner's friends wora
pnisont than gcuorally, as thoy wai o anxious to
listen to tho argument or Mr. MEnnicK, who baa
no small reputation as nu orator of ability. Mr.
PiKnroNT will clnao far tho prosecution.
Tho warm weather, willoh had really boon in?
tonso for nevi i al days, bas nubsided, and pleasant
dtya willi nights cool enough fur blanket coverings
aro wolcomo visit om. They bring very little news,
however, as tho town is comparatively doaortod of
ila prominent douizons. Tho hotels show feeble
register liais, but tho time ia not Ur distant when
lifo and activity will bo boro again in all ita glory.
Thc timo is short for bogiuning to niako prepara?

on (lio (I?V?H?UII of landa, wc appoint Iiis rcmarkti in
full-tho question being on tho 4th resolution, re?
ported by tho Comruillco on tho Platform, which
rends ns follows :
4. That aa largo land monopolies tend only to
mako tho rich riohor mid tho poor poorer, mid aro
ruinous to tho agricultural, commercial mid social
interestH of thu State, tho I.osrisl utuiu should ofter
overy practicable iniliicoincnt for tin-divinion mid
nato of itnoccttpiotl lauds among tho poorer classes,
mid na mi cucourngeuiciit to immigrants to Hottlo
in our Plate.
Mr. Kri'iNO having proposed tlio following
amendment :
Jlrsolcctl, Timi wo dosiro no nunV land or pro?
perty without adequate coiupoiiBatlon, mid trill
not fm ur any system of outitltication, but th oro
should bo a Just, na well as nn equal nud wliolc
somo system ot taxation, HO that it shall not bo to
tho advantage of any ono to hold in kltouosa and
uuproductiou large tracta of uuculliiatud lands.
J'Y buch n system, tho wanto and uncultivated
lauds now yielding nothing to thoir propriotora,
would eoon bo disposed or, in -?ll quantities to
actual Bottler?, who would ma..u thom productivo,
and lliua incicaso tho wealth und prosperity of tho
Hiato.
ii.nd ho introduced thia with a view
of railing attention to tho largo quantity of land
now ls ing idle in thia Hiato. Wo all know what a
vaat urea of land, flt for cultivation, mid which haa
hcii heretofore cultivated, Ia now a huron waato,
and we niuo know that groat bodies of mich hinds
aro in tho banda of persons who oiilicr cannot or
will not moko thom protluolivo.
Wo eau havo plenty of industrious laborers,
plenty of mon to oultirnto them, but nobody is
aldo to soil under such conditions au will cr.nblc
th J freedman or tho omigrnnt to purchase thom.
Ko industrious and Having frcodtnmt, no nosyly ar?
ri vod oinigrant can buy those lands, becauao of Ibo
system ot laud Utica provident throughout ibis
Blato, mid tho only moaauro that will overconio
thia is a chango in our system of taxation. UDICSS
tho poor man, tho man ut email nicaiiB, can buy
forty or illly acrcB of land noir hold by tho largo
landowner, unencumbered and without having to
pay moro hiss y ors' fees and wasting maro timo than
thu laud is worth, thia State caunot regain ita pros?
perity.
Thc largo proprietor with all bia landa mar bu a
poor man. His lands aro too often oucamlicrod hy
mortgages, t runt H. interests in romain 1er or other
iiirumbrancos, and tho pour man who buys a amati
section of auch a pcraon's laud, may altenvarda
(Iud himsolf involved in an endiosa Imr suit, wast?
ing alt his hard earnings. Ho may flu 1 that after
improving and building np his placo all his labor
may havo boon in vain, and his lands bo takon
from him for want.of a good lille.
Tho prosent system of law in thin Blato ia snob
that oven litios given by a Court of Equity nto,
in many caeca, not valid. A widow has, ten years
after tho death of her hunband, to disputo tho
titlo to all tho 1 rinds und property sold by him.
Each child coining of ago has also ten yearn in
ss Inch it may dispute eales uiado by parents, guar?
dians and executors.
'1 Inn is what mahen tillea so precarious, and wo
can neither mako nu independent yeomanry of our
freedmen nor havo emigrants to como as settlors
In thia State, unless aomo ms toro ia adopted. Wo
nlust nco that thc State get repossossod of thcao
landa, by a just and whotcsomo system or taxation,
HU that it shall not bo to tho adrantngo of any ono
to hold in idiom en and unproductiveness large
bracts which others, could cultivate.
By our present aystom of Slate taxation tho land
owner is too much favored; for whilo Ibo iniprovo
nionts on a town lot aro taxed almost to their full
valuo, tho improvements on a form or plantation
aro not taxed at nil. A man who owns a Binall
town lot and has improvomcnlB thereon valued ai
$10,000, pays, at tho rate of CO couts per 100 dollars.
00 dollars Stuto taxes; but tho man who owni
10,000 acres of land; which was rated tonto fifty
voa iii ago at ono dollar an aero, pay only $00 tuxes
although bo may have houses and improvement!
thereon to tho value of $20,000. Consequently lu
can lilford to hold thin vast quantity of land it
idloucsa lo the detriment of the prosperity of flu
State.
Tho unjust diacriroiuation in State taxatiou es?
t?lida nL:o to tho industry of tho inhabitant* o
the town; for whilo tho industry' of tho planter ii
not taxed in tho least, tho Iradosmau, incchatiii
nud professional mun pass taxes on us cry thing hi
docs mid carns.
My object in offoriug thia amendment waa, as !
havo already said, to call atto'itiott to this abnor
inity and to propose a remedy. Wo mint tax tbi
lands of tho Slato in proportion to their value foi
agricultural purposes, whether cultivated oi
not-divido tho Homo perhaps into four o
five classes, and then put a tax upoi
tho namo, Bay al from 10 to 60 conta per acre
in order to mako tho largo landholder, who ii
uiiablo to cultivate all his lands, and cannot sol
thom, for roaaou that ho cannot mako a valid title
relinquish a portion of them to tho State, to satis
fy hor demand far taxes, and who, having tin
right of eminent domain, may either sell them o
givo them lo our own Ijboring people, or to omi
granta, and furnish thom with a choap and valii
titlo. Wo must abolieh, also, (ho present barba
rous syatciu of Belling a man's wholo catato am
driving bim out of hin houao and home, for a fot
dollars taxes duo, by selling tho Ramo ontiro fo
taxes, but instead, enable every ono, who fron
Bomo causo or othor falle to pay his taxos, to re
litiquish a portion of tho same to tho Btato as ai
equivalent.
- Tho probable recognized debt of tho Stat
amounts io four and a half millions of dollars, rc
quiring tho amount of $200,000 annual interest t
bo paid. Tho Slate nooda further tho sum of Uv
hundred thousand dollars annually for Ibo nin.ii
tonanco of tho Btato govornmont, for oommo
Bchoola, for cbaritablo institutions, &c.-in a
about $750,000 annually, and which most bo raise
by taxation in Homo simpo or other, and au all ii
duutrhd pursuits aro already overtaxed, tho onl
resource loft ia Ibo taxation of tho lands in u prop?
manner 08 above indicated.
Tho aroa of tilla Slate Contains nlnotoan and
half millions of acron of land. Out of this only oi
and a qnarter of a million wore cultivated in 1821
from that limo to 18G0 tho quantity put under cu
ti vat ion wnsnol quito doublod, but tlc number
acres cultivated at present ia hardly moro than
was in 18211, in consequence of the fearful atrugg
Uirough which wo havo jost passed. It waa cor
puted by Mr. Mi i.i-s that there woro, besides tl
quanUty undor cultivation in 162S, aomo two and
hall millions of acres of land capable of hoing ct
tis ated to ail vantage. Tills would giro un alio
three and throc-quartcr millions of acres out
nineteen anil a half millions, for agricultural pi:
poso3. In thia, I suppose, ho does not include t!
vast bodies of swamp, river bottom ami mar
landa, which oro ab rich as any lands in tho worl
and only need clearing, ditching, draining ai
dyking to mako thom eminently productive ; b
Ulia cannot bo dono hy thoir present impoverish

Herschel V. Johnson, ll. F. Perry, and Don}, il.
Hill, aro tho tluee mon whoso mission is lo dis?
tract and betray tho Knuth, discourage- loyalty,
mid revue treason. They havo bad tolerable
success. Opposition to registration and a Con?
vention han increased of late in Smith Carolina,
Olid especially in Georgia, and rec, o ist rael mn is
del a j ed. Nor is thc ovil influence of those agita?
tors confined tn their own States ; it ht foll
throughout thc South, wborover Hiero ls a Hebel
wini regrets rebellion, or n alftvoliold-.-r who
mourns for slavery. Mr. Hill, in his rocont
speech at Atlanta, hus very plainly stated
tho policy ot In's class, which is simply
I to perpeluutu the strife of tho Knuth and North,
to ridiculo as unmanly tho spirit af reconciliation,
ami lo prevent reconstruction by all menus in their
power. Ho tells tho people of the Mouth that tho
I military bills violate thc Constitution, and that if
they carry thom out thor aid in tba violation. Tl
! you rotc for tho Constitution, you aro perjured."
"I'D tito Republican party bo says: "On, un, with
' your work or ruin, re hall-horn il..(ors in uncivil
things I but rom umber tho pe opie will call yon to
judgment," mid to tho Union mon of Georgia : "You
aro but cow ards and knaves, and Ibo timo will como
when you will call upon tho rocks and mountains
to fall on ron, and tho darkness to liido rou
from an outraged people." And to ids robot
friends ho crios, "Do not abandon your rights.
Defend them, talk fur thom, and if need bo, beforo
Qed and tho country, tight and dio for thom." Ho
informs (hu negroes that, tho Republicans aro
their worst friends, and intend their extermina?
tion. When wo read Uiat all this fustian and false?
hood was rccoivod with unboundod applause, and
that three chocrs wcro given for air. Hill as tho
only man who dared to proclaim tho tenth, it
in easy to sou Ibo ovil that his counsels work.
Georgia, if BIIO takes tba adrice ot such men, will
havo a dark futuro; ber rostoration to tho
Union will bo long delayed, and all hor inter?
ests must huffer. There is but ono way to
poaco and prosperity-obedience to tho laws. Tho
