Colonel Prosser, representative from thc Nashville District, Tennessee, ha? instrcted the heads o? the colored schools in Nashville to call for a competitive examination among ihe colored scholars, and will give his nomina? tion to West Point Academy to the best scholar among them. Persons interested in seeing the West Point Military School broken up are exultant over the recuqt action of Radical rep? resentative:, in this regard." -In view of the early removal of the munici? pal lunctionarles of Petersburg, Vlrgiuia, ap? pointed by military authority, and the substi? tution of others by Governor Walker, the former worthies, including th." mayor and thirteen members of the city council, have de? termined to resist expulsion. The Index of that city gives some account of the alleged conspiracy against law and order, and su3's consultations among the military appointees, both in Petersburg aud Richmond, have been going on for some time. The military mayor of the former place has, in fact, virtually de .clared war by takiug possession ot the city rec? ords and refusing to deliver them to the proper custodian, the city clerk, who, it is thought, grill be retained In office by the Governor. -The London Times publishes, as coming from the Roman frontier, a "scheme" on In? fallibility, which was distributed to the mem? bers of the (Ecumenical Council on Monday last. It claims that the Church possesses su? preme and complete primacy; that "princi? pality." sovereignty or supreme power over the universal church was received with pleni? tude of power from the Lord himself by St. Peter, of whom thc l'on:'if is successor; that this doctrine has always beeu fully maintained, and that it is now proposed, with the concur? rence of the Council, to inculcate and define, ns the dogma of faith, "that the Roman Pon? tiff cannot err when acting as the supreme teachcr'of all Christians." The scheme defines vhat the Church must hold in faith and mor ids, and that the prerogative of Papal In? fallibility extends over the 6ume matters to which the infallibility of the Church ls applica? ble. "If any should dare, which God forbid, to controvert the present definition, let him know that he departs from the true faith." -The Sorosis lias entered upon the third year of its pilgrimage of usefulness; the mem? bers, In spite of the "pitiless pekings," &c, cf -a severe snowstorm, turned out with Trojan bravery to celebrate the close of their second year's labors, on Monday evening, in New York. Reports were read, recitations and racy essays recited, and fiually Mrs. Robert Dale Owen, one of the fair Vices of the insti? tution, expressed her gratification at the growth and improvement of Sorosis since she last saw it, upon the occasion of its first meet ling at Delmonico's, and then asked permission to say a few words upon the subject of labor. All women over forty, she was sure, must have felt, like herself, that something was radically wron?: In the present system of society-some element was wanting to make Hie what it should be, something needed yet to be done for women. The truth is, said lbs. Owen, em? phatically, woman's work is not estimated in the expenses of living. Every thousand dol? lars in money that comes into a house has two thousand added to lt by her labor. And so long us xcomen have the providing of man's fowl they can govern him as thc/ choose. She did not approve, however, of married women earning their own living. She thought it would rein all the men in America if their xcives supported themselves; their domestic duties, properly performed, were enough for them, and should be recognized at their proper value. Her genial manner is said to have given grea: effect to her wise and motherly counsels, although many of thc " 'Sis's" were of opinion that her position was a huge stride in advance of anything that had heretofore entered inio their vocabulary of "woman and her work." A passage from "Les Miserables" appropriately closed the conclave at a late hour. _ The Montana Butchery. The "Piegan massacre," as it is called, bas awakened the sluggish sympathies of the Northern people, and the leading press? es denounce with tremendous energy the last exploit of "Fighting Phil Sheridan." as one which, in after years, will be likened to the massacre of Glencoe or the butchery of the Sicilian Vespers. And there is in a bald statement of the facts enough to stir the soul and quicken the pulse of any man not made of iron, while the lash of pubfic indignation would assuredly lay bare the hide of any save the pachydermatous crew to which our '.Smoky C;csar" and his bold lieutenants be? long. A few words tell the whole horrible story. About two hundred Indians were lying in camp. The smallpox was upon them, so that many died every day. Their weakness was Sheridan's opportunity. A force of sol? diery was poured upon them. They pleaded in vaic for mercy. The soldiers hacked and hewed till their arms were weary and their sabres dull. And when the bloody work was done, only forty-six of the band were left alive. ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-THREE Piegan Indians were murdered in cold blood. Of the whole number, a beggarly fifteen were fighting men and might resist NINETY of "the slain were weak and sickly women, and FIFTY OF THEM WERE CHILDREN LBS8 THAN TWELVE YEARS OLD. This is the piteous tale of butchery, ordered by Sheridan, approved by Sherman, and countenanced by Grant. Who are the actors in this sanguinary drama? Graut the Butcher, the hero of the slaughter-pens of Spottsylvania and Cold Harbor, is the head and front of the merci? less band. It was Sherman, now command? ing the armies of the Union, who trailed like a venomous serpent across this Southern land; whose cohorts blackened with buming finger our altars and our homes, dintiii? thc stones of our capitol, and scorching with fiery breath the generous heart of the chief city of our State. And Phil Sheridan, last of the three in rank, and first in infamy aud shame, is thc hero of the Valley of Virginia. It was he who rode roughshod through the garden of the "Old Dominion," who ravaged and destroyed, who laid the homesteads in ashes, who mocked at the weak and insulted thc feeble, who made the brutal boast that if a bird would fly across the ruined Valley it must carry it3 own provisions, for of food or shelter for man or bird there was none. r These aro the men who stand before the nation as the authors and apologists of the massacre of well nigh two hundred unarmed redskins. And the journalists cf the North, in blaming and abusing them, only stultify and condemn themselves. By their butche? ry, by their rapine, by their blood-guiltiuess in this Southern land, Grant and Sherman and Sheridan won money and rank and fame. These were their claims upon the Northern press, which hounded them on to more havoc and destruction. As their conduct became dark, their fortunes became bright. Tliey were measured out reward and honour as they gave shame and sorrow and suffering to the defenceless women and children of thc South. What wonder if they were eager to prove that time had uot blunted their appetite? What wonder if they were eager to prove their readiness for another sanguinary carnival ? The North trained up these military tigers, teaching them to harry and devour. Now they demand their reward, and receive in? stead anger and condemnation. "What was right for the white man and white woman of the South, is wrong for the copper-colored Indians of the West The Indian is more than the paleface of the South. New York and Boston cou-d laugh and applaud when Southern hones were disgraced, and Southern heurts were broken, but an injury done the poer Indian stirs np thc whole brood of Pharisaical writers, who know not where to end their outbursts of Puritanical indigna? tion. The bloody work in Montana cannot be palliated or excused, but no less infamous and no less atrocious was the conduct of Sheridan and Sherman during the Confede? rate war. AV h ut a Hundred Dollars in Payr ls Worth in Gold. The actual appreciation in the value of greenbacks, a3 indicated by the depreciation in the premium on gold, is shown in the fol? lowing table, in which is given the highest value in gold of one hundred dollars in cur? rency for each day since January 1st: .IdJannary.$$'?.50 7th Februarv.. .?32.90 4th...". 83.76 8th."...".... 82.96 5th....". 83.50 Mr?.".S2.0S Cth....".83.16 xOth.".8'2.D?i 7th ...".

On Friday the premium on gold advanced with great rapidity, the closing price being U3S; bat on Saturday the reaction took place and the premium fell to 12J, at which rale one hundred dollars in greenbacks is worth eighty-nine dollars and eight cents in gold. Since January 1st thc greenbacks, as comparai with gold, have appreciated S5.5S on each hundred dollars. This is equal to an advance at the rate of C. 68 per cent, upon the gold value of greenbacks at the opening of the year. Aoolish the Income Tax. Tlie organs of the dominant party,, we are glad to see, are uniting in a vigorous push for the abolition of that iniquitous invention of a Radical Congress, the income tax. The Washington Star gives a list of more than sixty of the leading Republican papers of tiie country, all of which unite in a demand for reduced taxation. They represent every section of the United States, and all the vari? ous elements of the party which placed the present administration in power as well, aud a large majority of them strongly urge the entire abolishment of the income tax as the best means of accomplishing the desired result. That form of taxation they pro? nounce the moat inquisitorial, corrupting, and unequal yet devised, and the one of all others most calculated to produce bad feel? ing between the people and the government So unanimous an expression of opinion from so faithful a reflex of public sentiment as the press, can hardly fail to have a controlling influence on Congress, and corresponding legislation may therefore be counted upon with a reasonable degree of confidence. In? deed, we are assured by the Star, that a large number of the Republican members of both houses are already warmly in favor of the measure, believing that they will be de? feated at the polls next fall unless their con? stituents are in some way relieved fro^u the oppressive burdens under which they uow labor. Thc "Wrath to Come. Our neighbors in Georgia, seemingly deaf to the arguments and entreaties of the press, are said to be throwing all their energies into the production of cotton, to the neglect of grain and provisions. The Macon Tele? graph, in despair, tells them: "Next spring, "perhaps, Georgia will be high and dry on "the shoals of Cape Disappointment, with "her bottom stove out and all the boats lost. "Cotton down, moat and corn to buy, some "four or five minions of debt to pay for fer "tilizer3, and everything iu a weaving way "generally. Then we will pay our debts, "according to invariable custom, with a " 'a relief law,' which won't cost much "money, and no great sacrifice of honesty, "seeing that we have sb often relieved our? selves from that article in times past ! But "where are the corn and meat to come "from? We shoji not be surprised to see "Georgia catch fits in about a year from this "time, and no planter be able to smile but "he who has a full corn crib and meat house." We wisli we could think that Georgia is the only State to which warning will apply. Thc Press Conference. The Columbia Guardian has the following article upon the subject of the conference of the auti-Kadical press, which takes place on Wednesday: "We have assurances of approval of the pro? posed press conference from a number of our friends of the fraternity, and we copy to-day several notlees from our exchanges to thc same effect. In obedience, then, to their wishes, thus indicated, and in conformity to earnest suggestions of influential journalists and pro? prietor?, coming directly to us through more private channels, we announce that a conven? tion of the anti-Radical newspaper press of | this State will be held in this city on next Wed? nesday, the lCth instant. "It is expected that a State press association will be formed at this convention; and, In our Judgment, the opportunity will bc very favora? ble for that purpose. Thc benefits of sueh association aro too obvious to need any com? ment. "All members of thc anti-Radical press of | the State are cordially invited to meet with us in Columbia on the day mentioned. The place and hour of meeting will bc designated, and all other arrangements made in due time." TUE Washington papers tell us that at the President's state dinner, last wock, the Honorable Christopher Columbus Rowen oc? cupied a seat among "the first ladies of the Republican Court."

We beg leave respectfully to caU the attention of the public to our Superior Flavoring Extracts. AB ten years have now elapsed B in ce we fl rat in? tro J u ced them to the notice of the American pub? lic, we deem lt unnecessary at present to enter into a lengthy description of their merits, Ac. There is hardly a elty or town of any note In the country luto which they have not found their way. The reason of this widespread popularity and dally increasing demand ls owing entirely to their peculiar exceUence and intrinsic worth. Being determined to malte them the Standard Ex? tracts of the day, we have sMU further improved their quality, and now we firmly and honestly be? lieve that they stand without a rival. Our Vanj?a Extract cannot be surpassed for richness and delicacy of flavor. It Is a strictly pure and high? ly concentrated.Extract of Vanilla Beans. In abort, we think It the best that ls made, at least, this is the decision of the best judges in the coun? try. We don't pretend to compete in price with many of the so-called Flavoring Extracts of the day, which are really but worthless compounds, undeserving of the name. For quality and style, we defy competition. DAVIS A MILLER'S PURE YEAST POWDER.
