ANorHER "NEw York MYSTERY. n-.Mort
Druggingi Mr.. Arthur Morrell, respectable
citizen of New York, who mysterously dsap-
peared about week ago, was brought home
on Thursday night, by three ruffian-looking
men, who after thrusting him into the door Of
his dwelling, made their escape. MIR. M. was
found to be raving maniac-continualy call
ing upon persons to release him-that they
had robbed him of all his money and cloth
ing-and threatened to kill him. He did not
recognise either his wife or mother, but ap-
peared to be continually haunted by the pre-
sence of his murderous captors, who had rob-
bed him of $50 in money, stripped him of all
his clothing and dressed him up in rags. He
doubtless endured week Of intense suffering,
as his wrists appear to have been bound with
cords, while his left eye and forehead bear
evident marks of severe blow. We trust
the authors Of the vile act may be detected
and summarily punished. While such villains
remain unhung, we go for the "death penalty"

9TH. Direct taxation would be almos Ger.
tain to ensure economy in The management,
of the national income. When every ci,i-
zen feels that every dollar expended is
drawn from his pocket, economy in those
who control the public X endure, viii be
looked on as cardinal, political duty; and
prodigalny as an objectionable, political
sin. Thus the watchfulness of the people
would tend 10 system Of rigid economy
for which you can never hope under the in
direct system oftaxaton. No adminsra.
ton would have the hardhood to be profuse
,, knowing that tho whole people understood
the whole matter and would speedily call
them 10 an account. Ii would raise the
standard of economy IN all appropriations
by Congress, as an ope1 direct and honest
appeal must be made to the whole constl-
tuency, and the measure of expenditure
would seldom lfever, exceed just, demo-
cratic limit. Add TO all this, it would tend
to the purity not less than the economy of
an administration and could nothing further
be said in favor of direct taxation, il would
be enough TO claim for it the popular IA
vor.
Various other considerations ola national
and political character might be adduced in
its favor such as leading to a more accurate
knowledge of the condition, wealth and re-
sources of a country &c, but | ibear sly

SECURING A Fortune By MARRYING
THREE SIsTERs.-A story is told Of one Of
the newly elected Senators from The river
counties in the Ohio Legislature. which
shows that he is good at holding on in a
good cause. A few years ago he couried
and married a young lady who had two
SISTERS, possessing among them a large
fortune. His wife died, and by some
means her share Of the property did not
fall to him, but remained in possession of
the two surviving sisters. lie couried and
MARI ed the second one, who in the mean
time had arrived nj womanhood. BY her
he had one child; soon after she too died.
and it was arranged that the property re-
manned nthC other sister, AMI neither could
come into possession Of it until after this
offspring was Of age. In the meantime the
Hird sister came 10 maturity. What did
our hero do but court and marry herr
"tle didn't do any thing else.' and is now
IN possession Of the whole fortune original
" left 10 The three sisters! If any one
doubts this romantic and singular story
they will find II fully confirmed by inouir
ing in Scioia county, The late election
has placed him in The Senate of that grow
ing State, and if no looks after her inter
est with the assiduty lie did after his own
howilI doubtless prove the most valuable
member, " no takes his seat at Columbus
this winter.

Marine and Fire Insurance institution as a
government depository. We learn since
that ii has been selected, it giving security
for the faithful performance Of its trust. II
will be recollected that by the action Of the
wing Congress, Government is compelled
to make lis deposilcs in Banks. Its choice
lay between rotten institution at Deiroil
and one at Milwaukee, and as the one al
Milwaukee was The most convenient, it was
chosen. If,here is any person Ass enough
10 consider such selection an endorsement,
of the concern by the administration, we pr
ty him, and as to the value of such selection
on the score of credit let him recoect that as gov
ernment depostory,t the Michigan Insurance
Bank Of Detroit, cannot get circulation in

ministration TO abolish this wing enactment,
and make the Government the keeper of It's
own funds.
