THE DIFFERENCE IN THE LAND
TAX.

A friend from the country tells us that his
land was appraised under The old law at five
dollars per acre, and under that appraisementl
was taxed for State purposes, sepen mills on
the dollar-making thirty-hve mills [three
cents and half,) on the acre. This year,
on the same land. he is taxed forty mills
(four cents,) on the acre. Under the new
appraisenent his land is put at iceaty. fire
dollars per acre,
The Journal has told us that the State
levy for next year, under the new law, would
be FIVE and half millspn The dollar. Al
| this rate let US see what tho land tax nexi
year will be. The same acre Of land tha,
paid t;rty.fpe mills last year, pays forty
this year; and next year, at the Journals
rate, it pays one hundred and Mirty-sepen
and a half mills, o.. thirteen cents and scpen
mills making il more than THREE times as
highas last year. Let the farmers who arc
complaining this year Of their taxes, not de-
ceive themselves in calculating that this fall
will show the beauties ofthis law; nert year
lit comes with all its force.
But let us see how this law operates on
personal property, moneys aud credits, &c.
| This year the value of twenty-five dollars as
assessed, is taxed on tpelpe dollars, and
| this twelve dolals is tsxed for State purposes,
eight mills on the dolIar--making ninety-sir
mills, or nine cents and six mills, Next
Iyearthis same twenty-five dollars is taxed
on the full amount at fpe and a half mills
or the dollar which makes thirteen cents and
scven .miUa; therefore the taxes on personal
property, moneys and credicls are raised
from this year 10 next, four cents on the
twenty-five dollarsj while the farmers' taxes
are raised from this year TO next, en- this acre
Of land valued at twenty-five dollars, from

Then, said MI Randolph, why did you not

We were met by John. the celebrated
body servant Of Mr. Randolph, and were
treated by him with as much calm dignity
and politeness as should have expected from
the most polished gentleman He accom-
panied US through, and explained every
thing that attracted attention about the sum
mer and winter houses, and related 10 US
many things connected with his late master,
|of a most interesting character. The sum.
mer and winter houses stand Immediately
opposite, and were used BY Mr.. Randolph,
as their denominations indicate. The winter
house is a rude, unpainted log structure; the
Iroofthat shelters the front, supported BY un-
barked posts. The interior has confined
roughly-6nished appearance. The summer
house is built Of better materials, well
finished and partially painted. The plan oI
the summer house, though singular, is in
good taste, and decidedly convenient and
agfeeable. Instead Of windows, on three
sides Of each room there are doors opening
very wide, affording plentiful circulation
of air, and an unobstructed view all around
Unfortunately, at the time Of our visit the
houses were denuded Of their furniture, q
circumstance Of much regret TO US. The
sale took place some time last fall.
Al my request, John directed us to BIZ
masters grave, al he foot Of . lofty pine

house. The place was selected by MI
Randolph twenty years before his death; ant
BY his direction bis head was laid to the
East instead Of the West, the usual position
suppose the position was preferred by MI
Randolph, because it is the Indian sepulchra
posture, his descent from Pocahontas, tn,
Indian princess, being one of the things h,
much boasted Of. A rude unchiseled mas
fof white rock, found by Mr.. Randolph, OF
a distant part Of his estate many years befor,
his death, and used by him at the door 0

sATIsFIED

Somebody peipetrafes the subjoined, as a
prosaic version probably of Pope's Man
never is but always to be blest:''
NRvER SATISFIED. Nobody is satisfied
in this world. Ifaiegacy is leA a man, he
regrets il is not larger. If he ends sum Of
money, he searches the spot for more. If
he is elected to some high Office, he wishes
fora better one If he is rich and wants
for nothing, he strives for more wealth. If
he is a single man, he is looking out for a
wife, and if married, for children. Man is
never satisfied.
You have hit upon the fact, mon ami,

LONG SERMONS.

A few years since, at the convocaton Of
the General Assembly Of the Kirk Of Scot
land, commissioners were appointed by
King William w., as usual, 10 openit. The
Earl Of Airly, one Of these, having made
the acquaintance Of the Clergyman appointed
10 preach the opening sermon, thought il
would be capital Joke TO make him SO
DRINK as to incapacitate him for that employ
ment Accordingly, on the day before the
sermon was to be preached, his lordship in
vited the divine to dinner, and Piled the bot
lie freely. Notwithstanding the entrsaties
long past midnight. When he reminded the
earl that he was to preach next day, and had
not composed ono word Of bis sermon. the
answer constantly was. Well, another grass,
. and then" Being, however, such a divine
as The one described BY Thompson, he at
length laid the noble lord under the table,
ana walked of. The next day he appeared
in his place at church. Lord Airly was
there. The text was, The wicked shall
be punished, and that right early.n The
clergyman had slight defect in The palatial
organs, and purposely Or invoIuniariy pro-
nounced the last clause, /" and thai ,sight

Scotch churches, custom for the clerk or

was no more sparing Of his oratory than Lord

CLERICAL CALL. A cotemporary, alludes to
the fact that most of the calls which modern
clergymen feel so imperatvely bound to obey
are from mparatively low salaries TO high
ones, says that these calls, remind him of the
honest old Negroes anecdote, which though
well known, is good enough to repeat often.
A certain divine, about to change his congre-
cation, mentioned that subject from the pulpit
After service was over, an old negro man who
was one of his admirers, went up to him and
desired to know the motives Of his leaving his
first flock. The person answered, 'He had a
call GAY, massa,' returned the negro, 'who
called you? The Lord, answered the person
