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?

now rapidly restoring it to its original design and
prosperity with their own means and in their own

When a corporation, by a majority voto, risk

the result provos disastrous, they havo no cause
to complain, but it should bo to them an adomni

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. Barksdalo, of Mississippi, gave wiser
counsel when ho said: "It must ho rcnicmborod
that when tho armies of tho Confederate States
surrendered, the Government of tho United States
acquired tho power to dictate tho terms of recon?
struction, and that there is no instrumentality,
short of Divino agency, which can take tho work
of reconstruction from the hands of tho present
Congress."-JV. Y. Tribune.

Tire CROPS.-Tho showers of rain that have re?
cently fallon have washed out tho fears beginning
to develop themselves lost week in regard to a lack
of moisture for tho growing crop. A few more
showers at proper intervals will sccuro a large
supply of corn for our poople; and at present the
prospect londa hopeful assurance to Iho pleasant
thought.-Oreenoiite Mountaineer.
DEATH OF Mn. P. E. DUNCAN.-About two weeks
sinco wo recoived tho melancholy tidings of the
death of Mr. Perry- E. Duncan, who was HO well
known and so highly esteemed throughout our
District. Uatil within a few years past he was in?
timately identified with thc public interests of
Greenville, and had been frequently assigned by
our peoplo to tho discharge of various public
trusts of responsibility and honor in tho Legisla?
ture, State Convention, and elsewhere. A ?h?rt
timo previous to tho close of'tho war, ho removed
with his family to Southwestern Georgia, and set
tlod himself there, much to the regret of his for?
mer neighbors, who felt tho loss they experienced
in his departure from their midst.
