WHAT HAS CONGRESs done

The first session Of the 29th Congress has en-.
ded, and the time has come for the people TO sur.
yey the ground their servants have passed over,
andto Judge of the fidelity Of their labOrs. Rare
ly has Congress met, sitting for eight long
months, which has accomplished SO little that is
good, and matured so much that is evil.
They have, in the frst place, plunged the Re.
public, without authority, in utter contempt of the
forms oil The constitution, against the avowed SEN
uments, and IN the teeth Of the warm and heart
felt remonstrances OF a vast majority of its cili.
zens, into an unjust, outrageous and damnable
war Of aggression and conquest, against feeble
and unoiiending neighbor.
Not content with wasting the blood and treas.
ure of the people in foreign hostlities, they have
waged an unrelenting and, unhappily, a success
fu warfare against the labor Of the poor, the in.
terests Of the free north, and the strength, inde-
pendence and welfare of the whole Union-stri-
king down system which has hitherto Welded a
suficency of revenue to the country, and protec.
tion to American interests, and bread to the fam
lilies of laborng mechanics; and feeding instead
thereof, the pauper laborers of Europe, swelling
still higher the blOated fortunes of foreign capital
lists, and building up British and French manu-
tacturers.
They have re-established the thrice-condemn.
ed and monstrous sub-Treasury system-than
which no despot could devise system more dan
gerous to our commercial and agricultural inter-
esis and TO the true liberty of the people at large;
system which provides one currency for office
holders and another for the people.
They have setup national claim to a broad
territory, extending over five degrees at latitude,
embracing secure and capacious harbors, with ev-
cry facility for the purposes of commerce; yet
this claim they have abandoned without the shad-
ow of an excuse, surrenderng our rights and
compromising the national dignity in the eyes of
all civilized nations.
They have set up the power of one man, over
andabovethepower of eighteen millions of people.
They have uselessly and extravagantly appro.
priated, in the course of eight short months, fifty
one millions of money from the treasury of the
people.
They have created a national debt of not less
than forty millions of dollars, and have paved the
way for more. In short, they have spurned their
promises to the people, they have trampled upon
their dearest interests, they have nsulted the hon
or of the Union, and they have used their ll-got-
ten power for the fosteringor multiplied evil, and
there can be nothing in them that is good.
Have the people of the Union, the free repub-
licans of America, the citizens of land which
boasts of privileges, liberty and civilization far
above other countries on earth, no punishment
for such recklessness, such waste, such corrup-
ton as this!-Zanesville Courier.

WING AND LoCoFoco TAX LAWS coNrRAsrEp.-
BY reterenceto page 800 of House Journal of the
late Legislature, it will be found that Mr. Smith,
OF Knox county, Locofoco decaimer against
the new tax law, offered the following substitute
Tor the bill then under consideration, doubtless
with the appreciation Of his political associates:
"That all property, of every kind and charac-
ter, owned by individuals, either Jointly or sever
ally, or by companies Incorporated or unincorpo-
rated within this State, over the value of one hun
dred dollars, shall be taxed according to its true
value, and shall be listed and returned by the
township assessor excepting only such property
as is exempt from taxation by the second section
OF the act entitled "an act pointing out the mode
of levying taxes," passed March Ia, 1881.
''Sec. 2. That all acts, and parts of acts, incon-
slsent with this act, be, and the same are hereby
repealed. This act to take effect and be in force
from and after its passage"
Upon that question the yeas and nays being be-
manded and ordered, resuted-yeas 22, NAYS AZ.
This amendment was voted for by twenty-five
Locofoco members. All the ayes are Locofocos
and all but three of the nays are Wings! Its de-
suuctive character then, as Locofoco PROPOSE
ton cannot be mistaken. Those who know our
friend Smith would not suspect him of drawing
up the proposition. twas probably drawn up by
DR.. Olds, whose name we find in the affirmative.
Now, we desire every poorman in estate, those
especially whose condition under the new tax law
has so much excited the sympathy of Locofoco
demagogues to look at the proposition of Mr.. s..
1t exempts propertyto the amountof one hundred
dollars Onlyi "All properly, of every kind and
character" above that amount must be placed on
the duplicate and pay its tax into the State and
county treasury. Now let us contrast the tender
mercies of this Locofoco proposition, with the
law as il stands, adopted by Wing votes.
The Wing law exempts: 1st. All kitchen fur
niture, beds and bedding; Cd. Other household
furniture and books to the amount of one hundred
dollars; Sd. Wearing apparel of every person
and family; 4th. All articles of food provided by
the head of a family; 9th. Farming utensils
9th. Mechanics toolstothe amount of one hundred
and fifty dollars; 7th. One co,c, eight sheep and
tour hogs, in addition to the above named, unless
the individual has taxable property of different
character to the amount of one hundred dollars.
Ii has been estimated-and cases going to show
the correctness of the estimate may be found all
around us-that the new law allows a citizen to
holdnearly orquite SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS WORTH
OF PROPERTY EXEMPT FROM TAXATION! Now COM
pare the Locofoco proposition with the Wing law
as it is, and decide who have manifested the
strongest disposition to legislate for the benefit of
the poor man,
