The New Tax Law.

MR. ED1roR.-M Much has been said and written in regard to the new Tax law and I have examined the subject pretty thoroughly, and am in a complete quandary. The Hartford Times says that the old law is to be our guide, and that it does not require each COW to be described separately. But the old law does require five different descriptions of horned cattle to be put in separately Il this be so. fox-traps and mouse-tiaps must be put in separately; a horn comb and an ivory comb, a horse card and a a curry>comb, a cross-cut saw. a wood saw and hand saw, all must go in sep arate and so of an augur and nail gimblet, and five hundred different arti ' cles found in every mans house. am poor man, and my whole pros pertY cannot amount to $500, and by the law shall have no taxes to pay on it. But the great difficulty with me lies here: am to make oath to my list that l have pus in all cf nag property- which l cannot consclentiously do; for I have already made out a list of 450 articles, which occupies Is pages of fools-
 cap paper, of 25 lines to the page; and l have already been one week in doing
 it; and keep thinking of and finding
 more articles to put in. And If Iakeep at it until the first of October, shall not be able to get all.
 will give you sEort specimen of my list. l have put down the value, all, if not more than each article is worth; which 1 believe the assessor, when he comes to examine and appraise the value of each article, will agree with me if he is an honest man.

The Lost Gem.

The black waters of the river of deat were rolling sluggishly onward. Ther approached one whose features bore tfa ces of anxiety and sorrow and with bowed form she gazed into the turouien strasfn as though she would descry something far down in its faIhomicss depths.
 Alas r she answered, I wore spark Iiay jewel upon my bosom it was no ,.ai,ry bauble, but monarch's gift, and invaluable. Tie wealth of India can y;e,d none to match it. In an evil hour 1 dropped from its resting place into this dark river. For moment 1 saw it float near the brink and stretched out mv hand to regain it but it was beyond my reach; and it sank down tili Saw ii no more. It was gone-lost forever ! And in deep gloom she turned to depart
 Stay mourner! Grieve not, but look again into the waters
 She looked, and a cry of joy burst from her lips.
 It is there! I see 1t floating upon the dismal wave. Oh, shall it not be mine once more 7
 Nay, thou art deceived. What thou seest is but the semblance of what was thine. Yet turn thine eyes upward and rejoice
 She obeyed and beheld star gleam- ing from bright spot of azure in the murky sky, whose rays gave even the waves of that gloomy river a tinge of brightness, and whose reflection there she had mistaken for her own lost gem.
 Then came tender musical voice, as the beautiful appearance vanished:
 .Mourner, these restless pillows, tho fearful and dark to thee, roll up to the gate of Heaven. Ever faithful to their trust, they bore the jewel, which was lent, not given to thee, to the righttul owner, the Monarch of Heaven; and transferred to His care, it will shine for ever in His glorious dwelling place.
 The mourner departed with counte nance thoughtful, yet cheerful her gaze no longer bent upon the earth or on the sorrowful riyerof death, but was meekly raised to the heavens And that star, beaming into her spirit with rays of hope and gladness, was ever after, her talls- man and her guide.
 Mother who weepest for thy little one, so early lost, that meurnsr art thou that jewel is thy now angel child Dry thy tears and ever rejoice that thou hast treasure in Heayenl
