TAXES.

In a communication that appers in the
last Banner, we are informed b. the writer,
in sem-ol!icial tone, TIM, we have no,
been taxed like some counties TO pay debt.
incurred in past years, but to build our
roads and bridges; and that the high tax Of
OF last year was undoubtedly incurred b.
the great necessity for roads and bridges, .
lie concludes with the following admoni-
non, ''Pay up tho taxes, farmers, and pu,
in the wheat. The Supervisor will have
the roads ready to bring il TO Market .
Surely, no farmer can be more reioiced
than are we at the above announcement,
and we shall watch with no little in,eres,
the result of the outlay upon our roads Of
so large an amount.

at the Administration for mol being leo
astray by the new doctrine; one that bu,

one that boldly ayowed that we must sseyen

The Cossack hordcs;'' this New York Times
now thnt the excitement has died away in

PUBLIC LANDS ENTERED.

During the year lSa9 there were about
10000 acres Of land entered in Scott coun-
~; 10 1850, abou, $4,000; aud in 1851,
1878 acres. We doub, if there be o

ed SO much land as tina, Of Scott. In Gin

310 acres entered, which also shows the
rspidily with which that county ia settling

GENINYsM.

The following is The last Illustration oil
what may by appropriately termed Genin
ism; the instance previous teing furnished
by W. Smead. Of Cincinnati, in bis libera
donation Of $1,000 to Kossuth:
professor Anderson, the great magician
Of the North, as the people call him, dis,ri-
bu,ed among the poor Of New York City.
1000 leaves OF bread weighing 1 lbs. each,
on New Years az also 1000 pieces Of meat
Of 4 lbs each piece. A grand procession
was formed which marched through tho
streets where the poor people live, and the
food was distributed to The sweet sounds Of
music. The great magician won't lose BY
that feat Of dexterty.

We never yet have encountered man
With quite so short a memory Us Mf
Wheeler appears 10 possess, and Win THIS
instance, will cease reminding him that ne
lla,ly con,radic,s this week what he affirm
ed last week, presuming il entirely unne
ccssary.
Here is the charge from last weeks Ga.
zette:--
"It he (Mr. Wheeler) expects TO elevate him
self in The estimation Of this community BY say
Ing that the articles that have appeared IN thu

the productions OF a. fool; that there is no mean

mistaken, and has not got 20 far IL the back
" Gods hat such language will meet with res
ponse from any others Than the few knaves TIA

II our readers do not agree with us that
in the above we have fairly and honorably
sustained our assertions, aud that Mr.
Wheeler was wholly oblivious when ho ut
tered the first quoted sentence, we will
make so fair on acknowledgement o. oul
