Price of Wooy--It will be remembered that

from the previous year, which the whig press
and the whig stumpers claimed was the legit

ourself that the tariff had little to do with it, ye
we could not gainsay their arguments, because o

The excitement on the marriage question has
again been revived in the General Assembly q
the Presbyterian Church. The confession Of
faith of that christian denomination, holds, il
seems, mans marriage with his deceased wifc's
sister, as contrary to the word of God. A reso-
LUTON was offered on the 22d instant, in the As
sembly, to enforce this article in a strict sense
but after considerable discussion il was rejected
10y small majority-ayes so, nays 81.
This discussion we believe il-timed, and by
no means wise. The passage of such resolu
ton as that contemplated above, would have The
effect of disturbing the peace Of many private
families, and perhaps lead to more injurious con
sequences. Better, then, to waive The agitation
of the matter altogether. Albany Argus.

with retching in the same manner. The young

Three Merchant ships arrived at Boston on
Friday, with 045 steerage pnssengera, of whom
I3lS are Russians from St. Petersburg. Accounts
from Antwerp represent that port as swarming
with emigranls, seeking passage to this coun-
FRY, and the Albany Atlas of Tuesday says, thai
NEARLY every steam and tow boat which arrives
from New York, is loaded down with enigranls
who with their families and effects are about to
people this western country. Those who now
larriye are Germans, about 10000 of whom
as has been shown by circular issued an

with them at least capital of five millions, OF
three millions and one-ihird United States cur
rency 1t has been shown that the emgrants
from Bavaria alone, for the five years preceding
1880, amounted TO 24,500, with capital of Sc

Trhe Rich Furniture Of the NabObs un-
taxed.


While the Tax Bill of last session was pend
ling in the Senate, proposition was adopted, le-
lyying tax on all household furniture, gold and
silver jewelry, &c, belonging to any person OF
irn, amounting, in the aggregate, TO four hun
ldred dollars. In the House of Representatives,
this amendment to Kelley's Tax Bill, so just in
itself, was stricken out, and another substituted
declaring that the furniture of every description
used in boarding house, tavern or hotel, except
the kitchen and dining room furniture necessary
for the family, shall be taken and deemed as stock
in trade, and taxed accordingly. Under this
amendment, the scanty furniture of boarding
house or tavern is subject 10 taxation, while that
of the banker, with his silver plate and rich CAT
pets-hs costly sideboards and luxuriant sofas
his rich iewelry, &c, though they may amount
to as many thousands as the furniture of the
boarding house keeper does to tens, yet it is ex'
3empt from taxation. Why this is so-what Jus
tce thero is in it--and what excuse can be Civ
en- for such partial and unjust legislaton-are
matters which the federal members Of the Legis
] slature must answer.
With such facts as these staring them in the
face, iho federal party claim that the law equal
lzes the taxes. Shame, where is thy blush!

Fort Er;e.--During the past few days, says
the Buffalo Advertiser, surveyors have been Oh.
served stalking out the grounds near the ruins OF
old Fort Erie in Canada, opposite our lighthouse
preparatory, it is said, to locating a new battery
and breastworks for defence. The point of land
selected is parallel with the mouth of our harbor
and about two miles from parallel with the new
redoubt now in progress eff erection by our Gov.
cnmcnt on Prospect IIi The distance from
the lighthouse to the Canada shore is $500 yds
camille and half less fractions,) and the oca.
tion chosen by our neighbors commands the Nj
agara at that point, while our new work is much
higher and beyond the reach of any battery thai
could be erected on the opposite shore, still too
far from this harbor TO counteract the influence
of the proposed Canadian Notification. The Nj.
agara is six hundred yards wide at Prospect Hill
Brother Jonathan is no idle spectator of John
Bulls movements. The New York News of
Wednesday, says: "Orders were received by Col
Pierce, commander of Fort Adams, Newport, R
l., last Saturday, TO have all the cannon in the
fort mounted Immediately. We hear of similar
orders being received at our Eastern fortresses.' .
