The whig papers say, "That if Lccofoco-
ism triumphs, the State will soon be deprived
of all the tax she receives from tho banks.n
Lose all the TAX she receiues from The
Banksi And how much tax does the reader
suppose ALL the banks in the State pay in
to the State Treasury? Why the sum Of
three thousand dollars! Halfa dozen indt
vduals can be found in Dayton whose tax ex-
ceeds the amount paid by the banks Wes-
tern Empire.
lfthe banks were wound up and the mon
oy distributed among tho stockholders, the
State would receive as taxes on the same
money that IS nop in the banks and erempt
from taxation, the nice little sum of S46,-
200, only FORTY-THREE THOUSAND
TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS MORE
l. laAAN IA IS NOW PAID BY THE BANIk75
on the same Honey.
This is whig equality, is il? Equal taxa
tion What an insult to the people. And
yet, according to the whig papers, who arc
hired by the banks 70 LIE to the people, the
Stale would lose ALL the taxes paid by the
banks. Enormous loss! Let the people re-
member that the money invested in banks
in this State, only pays $4,000, while the
same money in the hands of the people
would pay S46,200! The democratic party
90 in for such a loss to the State every year,
and the people will go in for it, likewise.
PASSAGE OF THE TAX LAw.--As some of
the lying wings in the extremity OF their deS-
peration, are charging the passage of'the IN
famous tax law upon the democratic party,
we have deemed it proper to republish the

FUNN Y.

Every one has heard of the old story
about the recruit on sentry duty, and his
innocent way of making known to stran-
ger the password for the night. A similar
incident actually occurred on Saturday
night, on Governors Island.
One of the fine regiment, popularity spo-
ken Of as Col. Stevenson's California boys.
was put on guard by way of initiating him
into the mysteries Of sentinel's duties
With the pass word-"Newport'--,were
given to him strict injunctions to shoot the
first man approaching or departing from. the
island who did not pronounce the shiboleth
of the hour. The raw youth shouldered
his musket, and soon all sounds were hush
ed save the echo Of his own solitary walk
as monotonously he trod the beaten
path But anon the sound of footsteps and
then heavy plunge into the water caught
his ear, and running TO the spot he hailed
in the direction Of the sound,
"Hallo, who goes thereof
GA friend,,' was the prompt reply.
"Then il you be friend, sag .NeWport,
or will shoot"
Great was the laughter and not small the
vexaton of the sergeant of the guard, who
was in the tent near the speaker. Of course
he had to call in the whole of the guard
and change the countersign.

HE CAME TOO LATE.

HE CAME TOO LATE.
He came too late neglect had tried
Her constancy too long;
Her love had yielded to her pride
And the deep sense Of wrong. ....
She scorned the offering ofa heart
Which fingered on its way,
Till il could no delight impart,
Nor shed one cheering ray. AZ.
F.. He came too late at once he felt ..ga
That all his power was o'er;
Indifference in her calm smile dwelt--
She thought Of him no more. a ..a
Anger and grief had passed away, ,e
Her heart and thoughts Were free;
She met him and her words were gay, s
No spell had memory. .1s
He came too late! the subtle chords
Oflove were all unbound
Not by offence of spoken words,
But by the sights that wound,
She knew that life held nothing now
That could the past repay; .sm
Yet she disdained his tardy vow,
And coldly turned away.
He came too late! her countless dreams
. OF hope had long since flown
No charm dwelt in his chosen theme,
Nor 10 his whispered tone: z"
And when with word and smile he tried
Affection still to prove, 5a@ .r"i
She nerved her heart with woman's pride,
And sPurned his tickle love.
