OUR WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE. ANXIETY ON THE TOPIC OF SHERIDAN S REMOVAL WHEN WILL THE PBESLDENT ACT-THE ELECTION IN TENNESSEE TO-MOBBOW-GOOD ADVICE FBOM AN OLD JOUBNAL-GBANT AGAIN ON THE RACK WILL HE BE NOMINATED-ETC., ETC. WASHINGTON, August 1.-Every one is on thc qui vive now for tho practical movement on the part of tho President, with regard to a change in tho military commandership of the Fifth District, which has been semi-officially announced as about to occur. Tho matter i3 a subject of every day conversation, and many are the speculations in? dulged in as to tho ultimate result. Tho majority of thoso best informed as to the President's move? ments, assert positively that the order making thc change will bo issued this week, while others aro equally emphatic in persisting that nothing will bo done in the case, citing this as an instance similar to others in which tho President has manifested a* disposition to executo great State movements, but from, which purpose ho has often and again been persuaded by unseen influences from prosecuting. We must wait and see what is to be dono however in this case. There are thought to be many difficulties iu the way, and somo even hint that the President, by removing SHERIDAN, would be brought into an issue wi th both the Secretary of War and General GBANT. Certain it is that a now controversy would bo opened with Congress. Tho Executive Department appears determined how? ever, and developments may como to light in a short time baraly thought of now. No little interest is expressed in official circles here in relation to the election which takes place in Tennossco to-day. If it is conducted without serious disturbances it will be a very agreeable disappointment, as fears of such an occurrence, well qualified by recent events in that unhappy State, have long boen experienced. That election, and the meeting of tho republican Convention in Richmond, both on tho aamo day, will be among the important events of this year's history* Tho authorities here will overlook affairs in Tennessee to-morrow by the hghtning aid of tho telegraph wires, and, if necessary, orders will flash from tho headquarters of thc General-in-Chief to the scene of difficulty, as in tho olden timo of war. Every precaution has boen taken, however, to pro vont bloodshed, and tho presence of a good force of United States troops ought certainly to do so. Tho National Intelligencer, of this morning, con? tains a Very sensible and well-timed article on thc subject of the disposition manifested by substan? tial and influential citizens in the South, to decline participation in the work of reconstruction as Con? gress proposes, whioh, for tho real merit and good sense that is contained in it, should bc read with no hasty glance. At the risk of duplicating a nowspapor article-as it may before this is publish? ed meet the readers of tho News-I append to this paragraph a part of the editorial, with tho an? nouncement that its warning and wisdom have re? ceived favorable comment from many true' fr?en tis of the unrepresented States. It is as follows : But suoh citizens might do woll to rcmembor that tho present is au unnatural and temporary condition of affairs and that tho time will soon como when their counsels will bo required, and will be duly appreciated, and when their miltie, ce. both within thoir own States and with thc General Government may bo beneficially exorcisod. There? fore, it is an ill-advised fooling on their part to keep themselves in tho background. They might at least show that tho y aro ready to take the posi? tion in political affairs to which tho voice of their fellow-citizens may at somo carly day call them. Il would be exceedingly satisfactory to conserva? tive men throughout the North to know that thero is a force, powerful in talent and worth, existing in the South, that will bo ever watchful and ready for the opportunity to aid in rodeeming tho coun? try from the hands of those who now misrule it." It need not bo imagined that tho wido talk about the certainty of tho country having Gen. GBANT for tho next Presidency, which now exists, has succeeded in getting a word out ot that officer as to his views of tho political situation, and that very silence will, moro than anything else, proven! his nomination by a thorough Radical Convention. It may bo surely predicted that if General GBANT is nominated, it will be by a Convention in which conservative dologates will figure prominently. If he accepts tho nomination-with regard to which it certainly does not appear that mortal man can assert clearly- ho will be elected. How long must it bo before the great soldier opens his mouth and tells tho world where ho stands on the great issues of tho hour ? Mr. MEBBICK, ono of thc coun sci for the dufcuco in tho SDBBATT trial, commoncutl his argument to the Jury this morning. It is remarkable for its boldness and power. As usual tho Court room was crowded. More of tho prisoner's friends were present .than gcuerally, as they weic anxious to liateu to the argument of Mr. MKB&ICK, who has no small reputation as an orator of ability. Mr. PIERPONT will closo for thc prosecution. Tho wann weather, which had really been in teuse for several days, has subsided, and pleasant days with nights cool onough for blankot coverings are wolcomo visitors. They bring very little news, however, as tho town is comparatively desortod of its prominent denizen?. Tho hotels show feeble register lists, but the timo is not far distant when fife and activity will bo hero again in all ils glory. Tho time is short for beginning to mako prepara? tions to receive Congrcaa again. HAI.. A BILL IN RELATION TO THE BLUE RIDGE BAIEROAD. Whereas, tho General Assembly ol' tho State did, on tho eighteenth day of September, in the year eighteen hundred anti sixty-aix, piss a Joint Reso? lution of the following tenor and effect, to wit : "Itesoived. That tho President and Directors of the Blue Ridge Railroad Company in Eolith Caro? lina be, and are hareby, authorized to deal with the shares held by the Stato in said Company in tho same manner as with the abares of all other stockholders, in any arrangement that may be made with any other Coinpanios or individuals, for th?? completion of thc said Road, by tho issuing of Ereferred shares, or reducing thc number of aharoa cid by the State in thc samo ratio in which thc City o'f Charleston and other stockholders may cousent that their shares shall be reduced, or in any other manner in whioh it may be found neces? sary to surrender a portion of the capital already invested to accomplish the construction of t.;o said Railroad ; Provided, That in any arrangement that mav bo made, tho State shall not bo held hablo for any additional assessment ou the shares held." ,4/id whereas, the City Council aro desirous of aiding in the completion of tho Blue Ridge Rail? road by any reasonable arrangement that will con? duce to that end: Now be lt Ordained, That the City Council of Charleston do hereby consent to dofer their claim for dividends on all stock n?vv hold by the Corpo-' ration in tho Blue Ridge aRailroad Company in favor of anv now stock that \ay be duly taken in said Company, so far.as, and until such newstock holders shall receive dividends at a rato not exceed? ing seven per cent, per annum upon tho amounts of their stock respectively: Prodded, however, that il' tho earnings of tho Company, which aro divided aa proiita, sholl bo in excess of tho amount neces? sary to pay saiilpreferred dividonda on tho stock, snell excess shall bo applied in equal ratio to the old and tho now stock. .Did prodded, also, that thc stock held by the City Council shall not bo sub? ject to any additional assessment: And prodded further, that if the dividends for any ono year shall "ho short Of seven per cent., tho deficiency thereof shall not be made up ont of the earnings of any future year. Remarks of Mr. J. P. M. Epping, at f Union Republican Convention, held Colombia Jnly 25,1867. As there has boon some difference of opinion garding the construction of Mr. EPPINQ'S spe< on tho division of lands, we append his remarks full-th* question being on the ?th resolution, ported by the Commilteo on the Platform, whi reads as follows : 4. That as largo land monopolies tend only make the rich richer and the poor poorer, and i ruinous to the. agricultural, commercial and soc interests of tho State, tho Logislaturo should o? every practicable inducement for tho division a salo of unoccupied lands among tl: o poorer class* and ns an encouragement to immigrants to set in our State. Mr. EPPINO having proposed the followi amendment : Resolved, That wo desire no man's land or pi porty without adequate compensation, and ? not favor any system of confiscation, but the should be a just, as well as an equal and who! some systom of taxation, so that it shall not be tho advantage of any one t J hold in idleness ai unproduction large tracts of uncultivated land By such a systom, tho waste and uncultivat lands now yielding nothing to their proprietoi would soon be disposed of, in small quantities actual settlers, who would make them productif and thus increase the wealth and prosperity of ti State. Said ho introduced this with a vii of calling attention to tho largo quantity of lai now lying idle in this State. Wo all know what vast area of land, fit for cultivation, and which Ii been heretofore cultivated, is now a barron wast and we also know that great bodies of such lam are in tho hands of persons who either cannot will not make them productive. We can havo plenty of industrious laborci plenty of men to cultivate them, but nobody able to sell under such conditions as will onal th? freedman or tho emigrant to purchase tlioi No industrious and saving freedman, no new!}' a rived omigrant can buy thoso lauds, because of tl system of laud titles prevalent throughout th State, and the only measure that will overcon this is a change in our system of taxation. Unie: the poor mau, tho man of small meane, can bi forty or fifty acres of land now hold by the lari landowner, unencumbered and without having I pay moro lawyers' foes and wasting more time thc tho land is worth, this State cannot regain its pro! pority. Tho largo proprietor with all his lands may bo poor man. His lands aro too often encumbered h mortgage, trusts, interests in remainder or oth( incumbranccs, and tho poor man who buys a ama section of such a person's land, may afterward find himself involved in an endless law suit, was Lng all his hard earnings. He may find that afic improving and building up his placo all his labe may have boen in vain, and his lands bo take from him for want.of a good title. The present system of law in this Stute is sue' that oven titles given by a Court of Equity ar< in many cases, not valid. A widow has, ton year after tho death of her husband, to dispute th title to all the lands and property sold by him Each child coming of ago has also ton years i which it may dispute eales made by parcDts, guai dians and executors. This is what makes titles so precarious, and w can neither make an independent Yeomanry of ou freedmen nor have emigrants to como as settlor in this Stato, unless some system is adopted. W must seo thai thc Stato get repossessed of the? lands, by a just and wholesome system of taxatior BO that it shall not bo to the advantage of any ou to hold in idleness and unproductiveness larg tracts which others could cultivate. By our present systom of Slate taxation tho lani owner is too much favored; for while tho improve ments on a town lot aro taxod almost to their fa. value, the improvements on a farm or plantatio: aro not taxed at- all. A man who owns a smal town lot and has improvements thereon valued a $10,000, pays, at tho rate of CO cents per 100 dollars CO dollars Stato taxes; but tho man who own 10,000 acres of land; which was rated some lift, yoars ago at one dollar an aero, pay only $G0 taxes although ho may havo houses and improvement thereon to tho valuo of $20,000. Consequently hi eau afford to hold this vast quantity of land ii idleness to tho de ti i ment of tho prosperity of tin Stato. The unjust discrimination in Stato taxation ex? tends abo to tho industry of tho inhabitants o the town; for whilo tho industry of tho planter ii not taxed in tho least, the tradesman, niechanu and professional man pays taxes on every thing bc does and carns. My object in offering this amendment was, as 1 have already said, to call, attention to this abnor? mity and to propose a remedy. Wo must tax thc lands of tho Stato iu proportion to thoir value foi agricultural purposes, whether cultivated Ol nut-divide tho samo porhapa into four oi fivo classes, and then put a tax upon the same, say at from 10 to 50 conts per aero, in order to make tho largo landholder, who is unablo to cultivate all his lands, and cannot soil thom, for reason that he cannot make a valid titlo, relinquish a portion of them to tho Stato, to satis? fy her demand for taxes, and who, having the right of eminent domain, may oither soil thom or give them to our own hboring poople, or to emi? grants, and furnish thom with a cheap and valid titlo. Wo must abolish, albo, tho present barba? rous sy.'*em of selling a man's wholo estate and driving him out of his houso and homo, for a fow dollars taxes duo, by Belling tho same entire for taxes, but instead, cnablo every one, who from some causo or other faila to pay his taxo?, to re? linquish a port ion of the samo to tho State as an equivalent. Tho probablo recognized debt of tho Stato amounts to four and a half millions of dollars, re? quiring thc amount of $200,000 annual interest to be paid. Tho Stato needs further the sum of fivo hundred thousand dollars annually for tho main? tenance of tho Stato government, for common schools, for charitablo institutions, ?tc-in all about $750,000 annually, and which must bo raised by taxation in somo shapo or other, and as all in? dustrial pursuits are already overtaxed, tho only resource left is tho taxation of tho landa in a proper manner as abovo indicated. The area of this Stato contains ninotecn and a half millions of acres of land. Out of thia only one and a quarter of a million were cultivated in 1825 ; from that time to 18150 tho quantity put under cul? tivation was not quito doubled, but tho number ol acres cultivated at present is hardly more than it was in 1825, in consequence of tho fearful struggle tlirough which wo have just passed. It was com? puted by Mr. MILLS that there were, besides tho quantity under cultivation in 1825, somo two and a half millions of acres of land capable of being cul? tivated to advantage. This would givo us about threo and three-quarter millions of aorcs out of nineteen and a half millions for agricultural pur P'jse.-. In this, I suppose, ho docs not include thc vast bodies of swamp, river bottom and marsh lands, which are as rich as any lands in tho world, and only need clearing, ditching, draining and dyking to mako them eminently productivo ; but this cannot bo done by their present impoverished owners. It can only bo done by tho State, and in compact bodies, after she has obtained her sov? ereignty again and io-established her credit upon a solid foundation, by a proper system of taxation. Thus, |by such a proper system of taxation, tho State may not only re-establish Iber credit, bring back capital and prosperity, but also become repossessed of vast quantities or valuablo lands, and relieve thc landowners of an often ungovern? able burden. I do not mean to favor confiscation. But I would say to the landowners, cultivate these lands, make them profitable, so you can afford to pay tho taxes }ho State is compelled to impose upon them or givo up what portion you eau spare. If a man can cultivate 5 or 10,000 acres of land, or mako it profitable, and can afford to pay tli? taxes ?hereon, let him but do so, and nobody will trouble him. Ho will be a benefactor to tho com? munity by giving employment and bread to hun? dreds of persons. There is another consideration connected with this question; and that is, when once wo get our peo? ple, rich aud poor, to tho knowledge of the fact that they have to pay a tax for o.ciy acre ol land they live upou, it will stimulate them to mako the most of it. Tho pernicious system of cultivation hitherto practiced Lb this State, of wearing out ono parcel of land alter another, and by which means thousands and thousands of our people havo boen (breed to emigrate from this State, will bo put a stop to.* The po.plc will improve their lands by a pioper system ol' cultivation, and fer? tilize tho same, so that tho lands, instead of bciug worn out in a lew years, and not affording food fur man and beast, will in a very short time so im? prove in value aa tu rival the most costly lands of the Northern and Eastern States. All this can be brought about, as I have beforo said, by a just and wholesome system of taxation. Let this bo done, and the State is rehabilitated in tho Union upon our Union Republican platform, and peace and plenty will reign in every house, iu every cabin. Tho Charleston and Savannah Railroad To thc Editor of the Hauy News: In youv issue of tho 3d instant allusion is made to $230,000 lost in tho demise of tho Charleston and Savannah Railroad Company, ending with tho eiguificant romark: "We no'or shall seo that $250, 000 again." Possibly not, Mr. Editor; bnt a? there happens to bo two sides to a question, I purpose (with your permission) to present yon with tho facts upon which that transaction of $250,000 waa based, and although they may havo passed from tho momory of many, they aro still very transpa? rent to mc. True, as you assert, tho City Council did agree to subscribo $250,000 in aid of thc late Charles? ton and Savannah Railroad Company, undor tho following stipulations, viz: First, that tho sub? scription should not bo paid in money, but that $200,000 should bc paid in Wilmington and Man? chester Railroad stock (thoscowncd by tho city),at par value, at whioh limo tho market valuo of this was $30 on tho $100; also, $50,000 iu stock of tho Kings Mountain Railroad Company ? then owned by tho city), at par valuo, at which time this ?tock was worth about $20 on the $101. This was tho modo of payment, amounting in reality only to a substitution of stock, each considered ultimately good, with tho exception of ono being an unfinish? ed road, thc other two completed but noithor pay? ing dividends. Tho l'stipula tior.s" demanded by the City Coun? cil wero tho right of selecting two directors to rep? resent thom in tho Board of Direction, which right the City Council, in thoir wisdom and fair dealing, soon construed to mean tho entire Board, and, by a happy combination with tho State vole, controlled the election of Prosidont and Directors of tho Charleston and Savannah Railroad Compa? ny, originally dostinod to bo tho great central thoroughfare, and shortest mail routo from New York to New Orloans oto Charleston and Sa? vannah, built and equipped at a cost of $3,000,000, suddouly transformed into an asylum for for tho favored fow. A freo travelling convenience to many, but an annoyanco and vexation li tho holders of at bast $1,000,000 of its bonds, who, to get possession and control of their own property, were compollod to purcliaao the road, and who are now rapidly restoring it to its original design and prosperity with their own means and in their own way. When a corporation, by a majority voto, risk public proporty or monoy entrusted to them and the result provos disastrous, they havo no cause to complain, but it should bo to them an adomni tion, as it has boon to individuals. Let tho Mem? phis and Charleston, tho Blue Ridge, tho Groon villo and Columbia, and all other railroads sot to with a will, apply thoir own moans with economy, industry and a vigorous determination to go ahead, thoy will succeed and find their account m BONDS AND STOCK. The Bod Advisers of the South. Horschol V. Johnson, B. F. Porry, and Bonj. H. Hill, are the three mon whose mission is to dis? tract and betray tho South, discourage loyalty, and revivo treason. They have had tolerable success. Opposition to registration and a Con? vention has increased of late in South Carolina, and especially in Georgia, and reconstruction is delayed. Nor is tho evil influence of those agita? tors confined to thoir own- States ; it ?H folt throughout tho South, wherover thoro is a Rebel who regrets rebellion, or a slaveholder who mourns for slavery. Mr. Hill, in his recent .speech at Atlanta, has very plainly stated tuc policy of his class, which is simply to perpetuate tho strife of tho South and North, to ridicule as unmanly the spirit of reconciliation, and to prevent reconstruction by all moans in their power. He tells tho peoplo of the South that tho military bills violate tho Constitution, and that if they carry them out thoy aid in tho violation. "Il you vote for tho Constitution, you aro pcrjurod." Co tho Republican party ho says: "On, on, with your work of ruin, yo hell-born rioters in sacred things 1 but remember tho people will call you to judgment," and to tho Union met* of Georgia: "Yon are hut cowards and knaves, and tho time will como when you wiR call upon thc rocks and mountains to faU on you, and the darkness to hido you from an outraged people." And to his robel friends he crios, "Do not abandon your rights. Defond them, talk for thom, and if need bo, beforo God and tho country, fight and dio for them." Ho informs tho negroes that tho Republican:! aro their worst friends, and intend thoir extermina? tion. When wo read that aU this fustian and false? hood was recoived with nnboundod applause, and that three cheers woro given for Mr. Hill as tho only man who dared to proclaim tho truth, it is easy to see the evil that his counsels work. Georgia, if Bho takes tho advice of such mon, will havo a dark future; her restoration to thc Union will ho long delayed, and all hor inter? ests must suffer. There is but ono way to poaco and prosperity-obedienco to tho laws. " The Slan Concross has laid down is tho plan approved v tho nation, and in no other wnj can thc rebel Slates regain tho position they voluntarily aban? doned and tho rights thoy forfeited by treasonable war. Gen.
