A •illy r ^ The Demooretlfl National Conventiofl resolved that bonds und other government securities should not be exempt from taxation any more than other property. Whereupon, the radical papers, with that characteristic disregard for truth and common sense, declare that this “is a most cunning device to lay additional burdens on the farmers and the laboring men generally 1" It may be that these dishonest knaves may impose such a construction of the resolution upon some poor, lienighted, ignorant, radic’il fool, but no man‘of ordinary sense can or will be deceived by such stupid nonsense. The Radical papers go it heavy on the ignorance and stupidity of their readers, but this laat venture goes a little ahead of anything they have ever essayed before. We have a notion that they will tlnd it an up-hill business to conv ince any farmer that because the Democracy demand that the bonds and other Government securities (which now pay no taxes) should be taxed like his farm and his personal property, that therefore they are In favor of laying additional burdens on him, instead of taking off some, as the resolution proposes.

To-day, he followed up the charge with a battery of stubborn logic which made the Jacobins squirm. Yesterday, Hendricks declared the measure for arming the Southern negroes was fnll of peril to the country, and should bo resisted by the President with all the constUittional power the Executive possessed. To-day, he replied to Sherman, who claimed that the murders in Texas justified the measure. Hendricks inquired why it was, If that was the only State in which they claimed that outrages had occurred, Texas was omitted from the provisions of the hill.

SENATE.

Washington, Wednesday, July 22. A letter from General Dyer, asking for a trial by court martial for the offences imputed to him in the recent report of the joint Committee on Ordnance, was referred to the Ordnance Committee. • The credentials of F. A. Sawyer and T. J. Robertson, Senators from South Carolina, were presented. Mr. Howard presented a protest from certain members of the South Carolina Legislature against the admission ol Sawyer, charging him with having been engaged in blockade running, and being a rebel office holder, etc. The motion prevailed to allow Robertson to be sworn in. Certain documents containing charges against the loyalty of Sawyer were presented. Aber a lengthy discussion, during which Mr. Robertson, the newly elected Senator from South Carolina, declared the charges against Sawyer to have originated from the friends of Dr. Mackey,the rival candidate against Sawyer, and utterly unfounded, and vouched for his Republicanism and ability to take the test oath. A motion to refer all the papers in Sawyer’s case to the Judiciary Committee was rejected, 17 to 27, and he was sworn in as the second Senator from South Carolina. Mr. Sherman called for the special order, tl.e motion relating to the adjournment. Mr. Howard moved a recess from five to seven o’clock. (Mr. Sherman opposed holding any evening sessions until a day was fixed for adjournment, as until that is done the House can not proceed with its business. A majority being unable to control the order of business except on Monday, as oven two-thirds can not suspend the rules at any other time until last ten days of the session. Two or three important bills were thus delayed. Mr. Howard’s motion was rejected 22 to 24. Questions of adjournment then came up. Mr. Wilson offered a substitute for Mr. Sherman’s motion providing for a recess until the 4th Monday in September. Mr. Sumner moved to adjourn to Monday 25. Mr. Howe advocated waiting for the veto to the Army .bill, and a discussion sprung tip between him ami Mr. Sherman, the latter insisting that the adjournment should be fixed for Friday next. Mr. Hendricks denied the statements of Sherman and others that in his remarks on the Army bill yesterday, he spoke for the President. He had not seen him for six weeks, and expressed only his own views. He proceeded in denunciation of the bill. Mr. Morton denied that the arms were to Is* dLtributed for political purposes at the South, but for the protection of the Htate government from reaction and destruction, with which they are boldly threatened. They are surrounded,bv "a rebel ami hostile |s>pulation, and* in a gr -at part, without an arsenal and not h pi *v of artillery to protect them, while alt their tried and trained soldiers who could fnll in line to-morrow, have been taken from them. Mr. Drake, as the result of the investigat ion which he had made, stated that there wore 25(>,000 arms in the hands of the Southerners, and argued that as the Southern speakers refused to recognize or submit to the governments there, the latter should be provided with the means of defense in ease of need. After further debate the question was taken on Mr. Sumner’s nmendment for adjournment to-day until the 27th was agreed to, 26 against 19. The question recurring on Mr. Wilson’s nmendment, tie modified it by providing !'>r recess until the third Monday in Septeinl*er, when it w as adopted, 28 to 20. The question was then on the amendi tent of the committee, striking out all provisions for retaliatory measures, and simply directing the President, in the case of a refusal to release naturaliz 'd citizens imprisoned abroad, to report the l.icts to congress for its action. It was agreed to, 30 against 7. Mr. Williams then offered a sulistltuto tor the third section,’ making it the duty < f the President to demand the release of any American citizens unjustly deprived of 'liberty. If it shall bo delayed or dented he shall use such means, not amounting to war, as he may deem necoaaary to effect such release. After a discussion by Messrs. Williams, Sumner and Conness— An amendment was offered by Mr. Buckalew, to strike out the third section and add to the Second that it shall is* the duty of the President to exercise all his authority under the Constitution and laws for the protection of American citizens abroad, and report to Congress from time to time any ease in which justice is denied to citizens of the United States. Mr. Conness demanded the yeas and nays, und the Senate finding itself w ith>ut a quorum adjourned.

The New London boat was behind from the start, and was never placed by the judges. Tremendous cheers burst from all sides when at a mile and a quarter the Ward crew drew two lengths ahead of the Harvards.

Mr. Sypher introduced a joint resolution to aid the repairing of the levees of the Mississippi River, and provide for the payment of the citizens of Louisiana for quarter master's stores furnished to tho United States, Mr. Stevens, rising to a personal explanation relative to a report in the Globr of some remarks of Mr. Garfield and others yesterday, emphatically denied the statement that he said the five-twen-ties were payable in coin. The report, he found, was taken from the report of Secretary McCulloch, ami was a total perversion of the truth. The words attributed to him were from Ills speech on tho legal tender bill. He cautioned the public against putting faith in fabrications of demagogues, and they would find evjry word he had asserted with regard to hi'inself was true and to tho letter. The Missouri contested election case wtut taken up, tho committee itaving reported that Mr. Pike, the silting member, is entitled to tho seat, with a minority resolution effered by Mr. Kerr, in favor of Mr. Logan. The consideration was interrupted by going to tiie business of the Speaker’s table, and disposing thereof as follows: The Senate amendment to the postal law bill, now concurred In and a committee of conference asked. Tho Senate bill in reference to the navy and marine corps, referred to the Committee on Naval Affairs.

Another widow lady has been, pressing her laims before Congress, and nas also beet successful. Her name is Martha M. Jones, and she is the administratrix of Samuel J. Jones, her husband, who obtsited a patent some years ago, for an improvement in zinc paint, which patent hiswidow desires to have extended. She Is lossessed of indomitable perseverance, is g>od looking,intelligent and highly educated. She stated her own case to the Haise Committee on Patents, and the bill she was interested in passed the Hotse, and went to the Senate. Shu knew if it was not attended to quicklv,it would go over till next session, and, perhaps, mifht not be acted upon for a year ortwo. Consequently, on Wednesday afternoon.

consequently, on W ednesday afternoon, Sim took position in the marble room, and settling her card to yarions Senators, suweeded in gaining an interview with eagi one, for as one would come out to eotverse with her, she would request him to tend out another, and in this way she stated her case to all personally. Iha was a lady of winning ways and, wtrked upon the susceptibiHtlea of the gfove and dignified Senators till she ancctoded in gaining all in her favor except IHnator Willey, of West Virginia, who stoutly opposed the bill. He was alone inhls glory, however, for when the vote cane to be taken he was the only one op3>4|ed, while all the rest were in favor of ifi» bill, which, of course, passed, and the laay went on her way rejoiejng. la the course of the debate, Senator Willey “twitted” his felifr Senators for being captivated with tl • intelligence and vivacity of the lady Wo had so elegantly pleaded her own

Ivan Fernandes—A Visit to the Home of Robinson Crnsoe. A correspondent of the New York Herald gives the following account of the Juan Fernandez group of islands, on the principal one of which Alexander Selkirk lived, and gave Defoe the idea of Robinson

Crusoe.

HISTORICAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL. The writer says: This group of islands

is 360 miles west of Valparaiso, and consists of two chief islands at a considerable distance apart, with smaller ones attached to each. Their name is derived from Juan Fernandez, a Spaniard, who discovered them in 1563 in his voyage from Lima to Valdivia. Ho designed to settle here, and applied for a patent, but foiled to obtain one. The island was much visited by the buccaneers in their exneditions against the Spaniards, and Dampier describes his visit here. In 1861 a Mosquito Indian was left here by the ship which Dampier was in, and was taken off by him in March, 1864, having lived three years solitaryupon the island, subsisting upon the goats first introduced there by Fernandez. In February, 1709, Captain Woods Rogers touched nere and found Alexander Selkirk, who had been left here bv the ship Cinque Ports, Captain Stradling, four years and four months previously. From Selkirk’s narration Defoe wrote his story of Robinson Crusoe. In the visits above mentioned a great number of goats were found, but these were reduced by the Spaniards, who introduced dogs for the purpose of destroying one of the principal means of subsistence of the buccaneers. These animals were both found in possession of the island in 1741, when Lord Anson, with the small remnant of his crews of the Centurion, Tryal and Gloucester, touched here. The men, suffering from scurv v and other maladies,recovered their health here so speedily that on their return home they pave eloquent accounts of the place which, leading to the supposition that the English would colonize both Juan Fernandez and Inchin, in the Chonos Archipelago, the Spaniards sent out a colony in 1751. This colony-, however, was soon after almost totally destroyed by an earthquake. In 1819 Chile established a penal colony here, which remained untii'1835, when the island was again deserted. Thu ruins of the cells where the convicts were confined ■till remain, but are rapidly disappearing under the influence of storms which sweep over the island. In 1837 fine of the present occupants came over from Valparaiso, and he was afterward joined by the

men and women previously rei'erred to. The principal islands are Juan Fernan-

dez, commonly called, for distinction, “Mas-a-Tierra,” and “ Mas-a-Fuera,” which lies some ninety miles to the westward. The first is about tweive > miles long and six broad. The highest parts of the island are in general thickly wooded, but in aome places have grassy plains of considerable extent, whose livelycolor contrasts agreeably with the dark foliage of the myrtle trees which aljound. The remains of a fort called San Juan Bautista are yet in a tolerable state of preservation, on the risingground, about 130 feet above the sea, at the southwest part of the bay, overlooking the settlement, in - the* middle of the beach are some remains of a five gun battery-, and at the northwest extremity of the island are also remains of batteries, with a few rusty twenty-four pounders, half buried in the earth. At the east point of the bay large quantities of eodfish are caught in forty fathoms of water, and crawfish and lotisters of great size are taken in abundance. When her Majesty’s ship Collingwood came here in 1845, a single Chilian family constituted the whole of the resident population. Cabbage, palms, cherry trees and peaches were found in great quantities. These, with wild oats, radishes, nasturtions, rhubarb strawberries, grew in wild and useless fruitfulness, there being no settlement to gather the abundant harvest. Horses, asses, dogs, and cats ran wild; goats fed upon every bight, and a few ferocious animals were said to infest the interior. The climate of Juan Fernandez is mild, and considered healthy, although/the weather is very-changeable. 'Flic mornings are generally cloudy, with light showers. Toward noon the weather clears up, ami the afternoons are clear and pleasant; but about ifimuicht clouds begin to gather in the headlands, ana squans sweep now n the valleys until day advances, and the

sun breaks out In a smiling afternoon. WALKS AROUND Jl AN FERNANDEZ. At four o'clock on the afternoon of the

7th of May we entered Cunii>erlaml Bay, which curves in from the headlands about a mile, and affords good anchorage, except during northers, when.ships arc compelled to put to sea. A boat came to us, rowed by half a dozen dark skinned half Indians, one of whom spoke a little English, and piloted us to a good anchorage within a cable’s length of the rocks. Tiiere is a low piece of ground here of about fifty acres, with a row of five or six tottering* huts, in which live the solo inhabitants of the island, numbering nineteen persons, most of whom are children. Four filthy looking women, swarming with vermin and pickaninies, six |tnen and innumerable dogs greeted us on our arrival,and commenced a freight traffic in fish, lobsters, sealskins, sandal wood, and Juan Fernandez curiosities. A few horses, cattle, and tame goats grazed around the houses, and nocks of wild pigeons constantly hovering over the valley with a recklessness very tantalizing to our eager sportsmen, who had commenced at the first glimpse of the island to get shooting gear and Ashing ftackle in order. The evening was spent in fishing and preparing for shooting, and earlynext morning your correspondent set out with Lieutenant Cassell and Surgeon Hnehling, and a good boat’s crew to pull around the island for game and fish. After exploring a beautiful valley and vainly endeavoring to get within range of some wild goats feeding on tho cliffs, we entered English bay, where Alexander Selkirk lived. Hero I sprung ashore through a heavy serf that threatened to swamp the boat, and started off into the interior alone, while the Lieutenant and Surgeon hoisted sail and went round the island to the cod fishing grounds. First I went to Crusoe’s Cave, a grotto in the rock twentyrive yards from tho beech. The cave is about twelve feet high, fifteen feet deep and twenty feet wide at the entrance, the Interior resembling in shape the inside of an old fashioned brick oven. High walls stood around the mouth of the cave, but Inside it was dry and smooth. Spiders were weaving over the inscriptions cut by previous visitors, and a mouse boldlyeyed me from a comer, apparently little alarmed at my intrusion into his palatial abode. A few moments sufficed to gratify cariosity respecting this spot, and slipping a couple of Ely’s wire cartridges into mv fowling piece, f set out for the mountain side. A stream of clear, cold water, ran noiaily down through the little valley, fringed with fern and wild mint, and skirted by- dry grass, breast high ana verythick. A match kindled a tremendous fire, which the wind swept with great

up toward tho cliff's,soon leaving , blackened plain, and opening a

capital approach to the hunting grounds. Cp and up I climbed, pressing through tangled undergrowth, and creeping beneath low myrtle trees, closely interlocked, bat finding nothing to shoot except a couple of falcons that sailed slowly overhead as I emerged into a little open space in tiie thicket. About three o’clock, weary and discouraged, I returned to the beach. The boat had not returned, and sitting down at the mouth of the cave I gave a loose rein to imagination. Before me swelled the open sea, its aurf beating with a hollow, mournful sound on the rocky shore, and before me rose the inaccessible cliffs, dark and silent, without even the song of a sparrow to relieve the monotony of the lonelv valley-. The ribs of some wrecked ship lay- high and dry, bleaching in the sun, and with a few fragments I kindled a fire in tiie cave, hoisted my handkerchief outside as a signal, and tried to foncy Selkirk’s feelings; but fotigue or lack of imagination demurred me from satisfactory gratification in that line. An honrs rest emboldened me to start again, and after a long, exhausting struggle up the rocks I succeeded in shooting five goats, two of which rolled for down the mountain side, fortunately directly towards the landing place. The others were too heavy to carry alone, and collecting them together I slid down the declivitv to the beach and awaited the return of the boat for assistance. It was growing dark when my companions returned. The sea had increased in violence, rendering landing not a little dangerous, but, after some difficulty, Lieutenant Caasel and two sailors sprang on

the rocks and came to my aid. ENCOUNTER WITH A WILDCAT.

Ttoifiklng that the herds of goats dispersed by my shots might have collected again near the scene of my exploit, the Lieutenant took his rifle and we slowly ascended the hills. Midway up the mountain~ side the myrtle trees stood very thick, presenting, with the tangled brush and fallen trunks, an almost impaaaable barrier. In our haste, which the gathering darkness impelled us R> make, we became separated in onr aaoent s&i^jss&r £ i&uts is

shaking ^of a bushy limb startled me; and, rising silently to a stooping posture, I tried to penetrate the thick gloom of the overhanging foliage. I called out first, thinking it might be one of the party coming that way, but received no response. Then suspecting it might be some stray goat, I strained my eyes again, and suddenly discovered a dark gray animal crouched upon a fallen tree about twenty paces distant, intently watching me. Its tail was slowly moving to and fro, and its eyes gleamed with a bright green light, and as I made out the outlines of this creature, I forgot my gun and all the world in an overpowering feeling which no words can desdribe. I am sure that my cap raised at least two inches. In a moment I began to realize my situation more coolly, and, reaching for my gun, bethought myself of some alternative to rid me of the annoying visitor. J. had but oue Ely cartridge left, and that 'was in the right barrel, the other being loaded with heavy shot. Croacliiug behind a small rook, half hidden by a luxurious growth of ferns, I dropped into the left barr 1 a patent lead pencil cutter, and . amm“d it down on top of tiie shot, intending to trust to short range and give the animal the contents of both barrels. While I was doiu b this I called repeatedly to Oassel, whose breech-load-er would have cheered me wonderfully, but not a sound in answer could be heard. I knew that it was time to do something. I was awarecL thedangerof my portion, and knew I had no Chance but to commence the attack before tho Increasing darkness put me wholly in the power of the wildcat, which still crouched on tfo log and was rapidly becoming more distinct. I will not undertake to tell what thoughts of home, of frietuls on board and those who might not welcome nij- return again, flashed through my mind as 1 brought my gun to bear, and vainly strived to distinguish the sights in the gloom. With a strange sense of peril and recklessness, I slowly trained mv piece on the eyes of the animal and pulled both triggers.* The thrilling scream that followed the discharge I shall never foret. The overloaded gun threw me over oy its recoil, and springing up I seized the piece by the muzzle, expecting an attack. bnt could only see a confused mass rolling and frantically tearing leaves and bushes and rapidly approaching me down the steep slope of the bank. If my life had depended upon it I could not have got out of the way for weakness. In Jess time than I can tell it the creature ceased its violeqt struggles, and about twenty feet distant slowly raised on its haunches, evidently blinded by my shot, but still full of vigor. I did not dare to move through fear of betraying my position, and was nervously thrusting a charge of shot into my gun, when my ear was greeted by the sound of approaching footsteps and the hurried breath of some one coming to my help. The thought flashed through* my mind, is it Cassel with my rifle, or'only one of the crew? when to my inexpressible relief I heard the lieutenant cautiously calling my name. With my hand to my mouth to deceive the animal, I answered, “hurry, quick,” and my friend leaped down the bank. 1 caught him as he was passing me, and pointed to the wildcat, whose attention seemed fixed on onr movements, when the lieutenant brought his rifle up and sent an ounce ball into the wounded brute. Bnt this did not finish him, and, clubbing his weapon, Cassel crushed in the head of the cat at one blow. Tht? animal measured five feet seven inches from tip to tail, and with our goats, which we found in the darkness with some difficulty, made a big load to carry down the mountain. From Memphis Avalanche, 15th. A Carpet- Bag Saint—His Great Anxiety ta be the Blackest at the Black. La Grange, Tenn., July 16, 186S. Editors Avalanche: An incident has just occurred in this community which calls most earnestly for ventilation in the public press. Last week a Northern Puritanical emissary, of the real “carpet-bag” breed, made his appearance in our midst. From what place he last came no one seems to know; but, as he returned last evening on the four o’clock train toward Memphis, it is believed he was sent out here by the infamous radical incendiaries of that city. That he himself is an incendiai } v* rankest and most combustible type, an account of his acts and declarations among the negroes of this community will amply and most damniugly prove. On Sunday last, at Carmel Church, five miles south of this place, he addressed, or rather, pretended to preach the gospel to a large crowd of colored people; and on Monday and Tuesday nights, he preached to tho colored people of this town, with closed doors, at the colored school house; and on each occasion, according to some of his most truthful hearers (all of whom were colored,) he gave utterance to some of tho most infamous and incendiary falsehoods. He said that he was a considerable property holder at the North, where he came from, and he would give all he had in the world if he could make his skin as black as the blackest of those ’ who were before him. He said that the negro race, though long held in bondage by the white, was naturally, in every way* superior to the white race; that the colored people already occupied the first place in this country, and were bound to continue to do so to the end of time; and that when eternity began it would be found that they occupy the first place in heaven: that there, in those abodes of the blest, they would shine as stars of the first magnitude, while the whites would be nut secondary, or rather, least and last, as all the colored races, black, brown and red, would come before the pure white. The scoundrel went so for as to exhibit charts of heaven, in which the blacks were placed highest and nearest tho “Great White Throue,” while the whites—or what few of them might get there—occupied “back seats.” This vile incendiary told the poor, deluded darkies that the reason why he desired to change the color of his skin, and be a black man. was that the negroes would henceforth occupy the first and highest places in this country, and Lbat he desired naturally to be one of the “ruling class.” We have not been able to learn the rascal’s name. While here,he stopped, that is, ate, slept and tabernacled with the blackest negroes in the place. He got away from here before his evil, incendiary speeches were generally known. Had he been found out a little sooner, the young men of the town would have gratified his desire, and given him a black skin of India ink and tar that wonld have stuck to him to the latest hour of his life. Our colored people are already badly enough spoiled without such “sermons” as those of this devil’s incendiary. Several Citizens of LaGrange.

Dividends once added to a Policy arc never forfeited by non-payment of premium ou the Policy. On the other baud they will bo hfdrkmcii tn cash, should the circumstances of the assured require it. Annual Cash Dividends, within the laat five years only, harp amounted to over $133,000,- being from 3u u> .Vi per cent of tit* Life, and 17 tnl36 peT cent of the endowment premiums actually paid, adding to the Policy from 36 to 110 pur c^nt. of the Premium received, and from 6u to 125 pei cent, of the Life Rate, which, with the lower rate of premium charged, makes a larger dividend than has ever been paid by any Nolo Company. This is owing to judicious management and careful selection of Lives, which makes the Loose* and Ejcpentt* of thi* Company LESS THAN nm aveRaGi. of other Companies. Ooort -Agents 'Wanted.
