THE Tax LAw.--Vory general complaint
Is made against the provisions Of this Law
Our farmers do not know what value to place
upon their young pigs, and chickens just
hatched. They cannot tell how many Of
the chicks will die ofthc gapcs, or how many
the owls and hawks will carry offbetore they
could arrive at an age at which their value
could be given with any certainty.
Another thing bothers them very much.
They see by he iap that they must estimate
the value ofwearing apparel, provisions for
the family, grain in the ground, &c., &C.,
while the Stnte Auditor says these thing are
not subjects oftaxation. Andyet this same
State Auditor requires them to swear that
they have returned for taxation ull that The LGrU
requires them 10 return! Such are the diff.
cultes, foolish locofoce legislature and
locoloco public officers have thrown upon
he people. conscientious men wish hon.
estiy TO comply with the provisions of the
law. They donot wish to swear falsely
ana yet, the very blank which IL furnished
them made out by the State Auditor. ana
sent to the County Aud;t5rs, to be given n
thepeople, leads them into this disirnltu y y
Two things are certain-Afrat, the loooloco,
are not fit 10 make laws--second, the locoFo

TIE OVERLAND EMIGRANTs.-A letter
IRON st. Josephs, dated 26th ult, published
rn the st. Louis Republican, says: ....
The influx of emigrants gives our thriv-
ing city very animated appearance, and
from present indications, am inclined tu
believe that the overland emigration will cx-
ceed that of any previous year. The emf
grants are generally men of moral charac-
ter, and have so far manifested but little Of
that recklcssness and lack of restraint, that
characterized so many of those in 1850 and
1851. ... ...
Many of the cmigrants nre preparing to
start in few days, Others have already gone,
taking with them extra wagons, with feed
anticipating that when the grass is sufficient
ly up to sustain their stock, it will find them
some hundred miles nearer the land of gold.
The course naturally pursued, is to purchase
old wagons, which they load with food; put
ting in their extra stock, and utter exhaust
ing the food leave the wagons for those
who follow for fuel.
The spring is unusually backward--vege.
tation is at least fifteen days behind that ot
last year or the preceding year. Every
thing requisite for the emigrant can be had
at fair prices. Very large quantities of corn
have been shipped here, where it can be
had for about what the freight cost them
ANY amount Of corn can be obtained at this
present writing, for twenty-five and thirty
cents per bushel. Bacon is also abundant
clear sides thoroughly cured can be had for
eight cents; hams ten cents. Flour of our
own manufacture, with some few lots ship
ped from your city, is dull at $3.50 per hun
drcd pounds. Every description of stock
can be had at fair prices. ..

WOMAN TORN TO PIECES BY WILD CATS,
AS PUNISHMENT FOR INFANTICIDE.--In
the Wonders of the Universe, or Curiosities
of Nature and Art, vol. H., p. 555, will be
found the account of this affair. The cul-
pritwas named Louise Mabree, midwife in
Paris; the corpses of no less than sixty-two
infants were found in or about her house.
She was sentenced to be shut up in an iron
cage with sixteen wild cats and suspended
over slow fire. When the cats became
inGuriated with heat and pain, they turned
their rage upon her, and after thirty-fve
minutes of the most horrid suffering, put an
end to her existence.

LEGISLATIVE RELIEF.--It is an ill wind
that blows nobody good. Under the old con-
stitutiOn and tax laws there was profess
slonal tax levied upon lawyers and doctors,
which amounted last year, according to the
AUDITORS report, to NINE THOUSAND
THIRTY-FOUR DOLLARS AND SIX
TEEN CENTS. By the new tax law law
yers and doctors are totally relieved from
this burthen. They have been striving for
this relieffor long time, and have at last
succeeded. We tender them our hearty con-
gratulations. This is the only case that we
know of in which relief has been afforded by
putting the "new constitution into the hands
of its friends. ."-Journal

MURDER OF WIFE BY HER HUSBAND
The lileless body of poor woman, named
Mrs. Fleeth, was found on Monday last, on
the floor of her lodgings, in the rear of AIT
East Tenth street, New York, exhibiting
marks of brutal violence, which, connected
with the fact that her husband had been in
the habit of using her very i'll and had been
heard by the occupants of an adjoining apart
mcnt beating her, justified the conclusion
that he was the author of the murder. The
scene presented within the wretched abode
was most heart-rendng-by the side of the
,oor victim of an Incorporate and brutal
husband sat the young children, scarcely
more than infants, vainly calling upon their
mother, all unconscious of the ;"sleep which
knows no-waking," into which she had fall
len. The husband was arrested at his work
shop and betrayed such evident signs of
guilt that he was at once committed to an

VACANCY FOR DocToR. .-Greiner, the
Indian agent in New Mexico, wrote home
on the 3lst of March, that he knew Of an
opening for an enterprising Physician; va
cancy had happened and he told how. One
of the Eutaws on the San Juan River was
taken sick, and an Indian doctor from the
Rio Verde was called in to attend him. Ow.
ing to the strength Of the disease, or to the
weakness Of the prescription Of the doctor,
the patient died and was buried, After the
funeral the doctor was taken by the friends
OF the deceased, tied up, shot and scalped;
his wite's hair was cut off; his house burned
containing all his property-and all his ami,
mails killed. This is the law among these
Indians, regulating doctors. The vacancy
is yet untitled. .-Clsrs. Herald.
