-A Washington letter of Thursday says;
"Thc cadetship stir-about is producing results

thc Nashville District, Tennessee, ha? instrcted
the heads o? the colored schools in Nashville
to call for a competitive examination among

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

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:

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." Faugh!

FLAVORING EXTRACTS
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT.
GREAT R EDUCTION IN PRICES.
QUALITY STILL FURTHER IMPROVED.
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.
A substitute for Yeast m making Hot Bread,
Rolls and Batter Cakes of every description, hav?
ing the advantage of making the dough or batter
perfectly light, and ready for baking without
delay, and greatly diminishing the liability to
become sour.
Many dyspeptics, who cannot tolerate fresh,
light cakes when made with yeast, caa eat them
with impunity when raised in thia way.
When used according to directions, It is war?
ranted to make rich, sweet, light and nutritious
Bread and Biscuit, Muffins, Waffles, Corn Bread,
all kinda of Griddle Cakes, also Bolled Puddings,
Dumplings, Pot Pies, Ac.
