~ The WHIs TAX LAw.-There never has been a
law passed SO we'll calculated to open the eyes OF
the honest masses to the iniquitous purposes Of
the federal leaders, as the tax law passed by the
late legislature. The inequalities and oppress-
ions Of the banking law, may, if unrepealod,
require few years to develope themselves to the
comprehension of considerable portion of the
people-but the tax law comes directly home to
the breeches pocket of every one, EXCEPT THE
THEvING BANKER. We like, however, the bold
spirit that dictated this aw it is in contrast with
the general scope of federal legislation, which
seeks its robberies of the People by ndrecton.
correspondent Of the Cincinnati Enquirer, wri-
ting from the Muskingum valley unveils the
true design of the law in the last of the following
paragraphs:
y AS soon as the law was received hero, the
mlers put down Wheat cents on the bushe,
and all, including wings, tell the farmers it is in
consequence of the law.
In arriving at the amount for taxation, the mo-
ney loaned or business done the preceding years
is to be taken as the guide. This is virtually tax
ing man on last years business Itruns through
every article the farmer raises, except domestic
animals. Butter, eggs and chickens, are not
exempt.
Thus the purchasers of these articles having
to pay tax on the capital invested in them, will
Jew the old egg and butter women, and then what
time there will be.
When first received, read it over three times,
and confess did not even approximate to what
now, after seeing Woods explanations and forms,
believe was the true intention. Kelley no doubt
intended to bring into taxation all monies at inter-
est-to force everything into Banks, and having
got it there, the inquisitorial and scrutinizing
statements required of all monied men, merchants
and dealers, would enable the Bankers to ascer-
tain by reference to the County Duplicate the
true wealth Of applicants at the Banks for money;
or when an indorser was offered, the oath required
to Justify baiI' would be unnecessary, because
the duplicate would show the sworn wealth of
man."

THE History OF THE CONSULATE AND EMPIRE, uN-
DER NAPOLEON. By M. A. THEIRS.
Part 2 of this valuable work, from the press of
Messrs. CAREY & HART, of Philadelphia, has been
received. We wonder that every person does not
send for this work, and the History of the French
Revolution by the same great author, each of
which can be purchased for $l,25. We do not
believe cheap publications have been issued
from the press since the discovery of the art of
printing. Messrs. c. g. H. have no rivals on the
globe in the way Of the cheapness and value of
the books they issue. They emphatically
the peoples publishers.

issued the 18th number of these inmitable and
interesting tales. Price 124 cents per number.
