The United States Supreme Court has held some of the most essen tial parts of the Income Tax Law un constitutional. Tho Court holds that taxes on real estate is a direct tax, and hence a tax on The rents of real estate, which is really the income of the land, is the same thing as a tx on tbe land itself. The decisiotn further holds that the income from State, conty an~d muni cipal bonds canniot he taxed. * ~ This is as fa&r as the decision goes. The other questions in the case are not decided, because a majority of the (Court cannot concur i: an opinion. The question as to whether the in validity of the act as to rents and. ini *come from real est ate renders null and void the whole act, and as to whether taxation on personal property-is direct taxation, are left undzeci:led by the equal division of the Court. Many have thonght :hat the decision would cripple the Goveinmenit so much that an ex'ra session of Con gress would have to be called to pro vide additional revenue for the Gov ernent; the off:ials say that sufficient ravenne will be raised to conduct the public business. While there is an element of intjus tice in the systemt if income taxation, it looks hard that s.o many have got rich by unjast systemt of indirect taxa tion and can't now be t'nreed to pay their proper proportio.n <.f the G-av ernenm'a expenses. -BLACESTOCKS NEWS. BLACKsTocKs, S. C., A pril 10. George Hood, an old colored man liv ing on Mrs. ML. J. W ylie's plantation, died last Friday night with something like cramp colic. Ilis body was brought here for burial Sunday, bia: inst before the body was put ini the ground the preacher wats ha.mled a. note from Mirs. Wylie's sonI, request ing a delay in the burial nuatil an in quest could be held, as foul play was suspected. As u mal, the negroes wcre soon wild with excitement, and it was soon reported that the old man had been poisoned by a colored woman named Marr Edwards. Coroner Chis olmn was notified and camne down on Monday and be'd an inquest, and ordered a post mortem examination to be made, which was done by Dr. L. S. D)ouglass. The inquest fai'ed to find any evidence of foul play, except the fact that Mary Edwards sat in the door while the o'd man ate his dinner, and the coroner ordered the body buried. Mr. J. L. Lemnaster, representing R. J. McCarley & Co., is now located here in the cotton business.

A LUNATIC SUICIDES. COLUMBIA, S. C., April 8.-There was a most unfortunate affair at the State lunatic asylum today. A white patient committed suicide by hanging, using his suspenders as a rope. His galluses were about the only thing he could fitid to make a gallows of. The unfortunate man was Z. F. Watley, who was sent to the Asylum from Edgefield county on October 31, 1881. He was about 45 years of age and had been confined for thirteen years. When he was first sent to the asylum he was very violent and his malady took a homicidal form. This was shown by his attack upon a pa tient, whom he killed, and attendants in the early days of his confinement. Recently he has been well behaved, and the authorities never dreamed for an instant that his malady would take a suicidal form, else he would have been watched day and night. This morning when the attendant went to his room, Watley was found hanging at the end of his suspenders, of which he had made a rope to the grating of his window, dead. He had evidently climbed up on the window sill, fixed the noose and then slipped off. He must have died from slow and wilful strangulation. When found he had been dead for four hours.
