Enshroud the silent lea.

For when the parting day
Shadows the pleasant vale again,

Will sing their songs to me.
And we shall hear there sometimes
Bird-voices wild and free,

The New Tax Bill.

The Commissioners to revise the code
providing for the assessment and collec-
tion of the State and county taxes, have
reported huge bill to equalze taxation,
by getting fair and equal assessment of
all the real and personal property in the
Commonwealth. The assessors are author
lied to subpoena witnesses, examine them
under oath, and require title papers to be
produced. Every taxable inhabitant is
obliged to show how much personal prop
erty he is worth, including his money at
interest, his stocks, bonds, securities, and
even his income, and the debts which
may be owing him by solvent debtors
matter which it is at all times very diff
fcult to determine. The assessment is to
be made triennially; and where the tax
payer neglects to fill the blanks left by
the assessors, the latter must assess the
property twenty per cent above its ascer-
tanned value.
County Boards of Revision are provi-
ded. These Boards are to equalize the
valuation of land aud town lots, and the
improvements thereon, so that they will
be assessed at actual cash value, and shall
have power to subpoena and examine wit
nesses, and require the production of IT,
tie papers, and exercise all powers neces-
sary to ascertain the value of all real and
property, and shall raise or re-
duce the assessors valuation if they think
injustice has been done to the State or in
dividual If taxables who have refused
or neglected to make return to the asses
sor, shall present it to this Board, they
shall deduct the twenty per cent. ad-

The best evidence that can be adduced in
favor of the efficaciousness of Hootlands Ger
man Bitters, prepared by DR.. c. NJ. Jackson
is the unprecedented demand for them from
all parts of the Union; and although there
may be many compounds prepared and rep
resented as being worthy of a liberal patron
age, yet we feel constrained to remark, that
the vast number of testimonials with which
the worthy doctor has been honored, by per-
sons of the highest character and respectable
ity, who found it necessary to have recourse
to his preparation, is testimony sufficiently
conclusive, that more effectual remedy for
the almost immediate relief of those afflicted
with that direful malady, dyspepsia, has nev-
er been discovered.

Important Opinion.

An important opinion has just been de-
levered by Judge Woodward, of the Su-
preme Bench, relating to partnership
property. The following portion of the
opinion will give an idea of the principle
laid down. The Judge says:
"That sheriff acting under an exc
cution at the suit of a judgment creditor
of one partner can sell and deliver no
part of the partnership goods, but only
the contingent interest of the debtor part
ner in the stock and profits after settle
ment of partnership accounts and pay
ment of partnership creditors, is con-
clusion that results necessarily out of the
principles of the partnership relation, and
is sanctioned by great number of mod
ern decisions both in England and the
United States. What are some of the
principles of this relationf 1t is a con-
tract relation, and therefore no partner
can be introduced into it except upon
consent. A purchaser at a sheriff's sale
of partners interest becomes tenant in
common with the other partners, so far as
to entitle him to an account, but he does not
become partner. On the contrary, the
sale works dissolution of the partner
ship, as completely as the death, insanity,
or bankruptcy of a partnership.
Partners are joint tenants of all the
stock and effects employed in their bust
ness. No partner can have separate
interest in any part of the property be-
longing to the partnership, though each
has an entire as well as joint interest in
the whole of the joint property. A levy,
then, to effect the interest of partner,
cannot touch specific proportion of the
goods, nor the whole, because others have
property in every part as well as the
whole, coupled with right, resting in
contract, to use them for the purposes for
which the partnership was instituted
The only levy that can be made, consis-
tently with the relation the partners sus-
tain to the goods, is of the debtors inter-
est in the whole, and that is to be meas
ured by final account.

DG- Late advices from Australia, re-
ceived by way of California and Europe,
announce the discovery of another ex-
tensive gold field, which promises to yield
an abundant harvest. The season in
Australia had been exceedingly wet, so
much so that the farmers had been wait
ing for three months for the weather to
become sufficiently dry to admit of the
sowing of grain. Considerable attention
is being given to the cultivation or tobac-
co, which, it is alleged, can be grown in
such perfection as to warrant the belief
that it viii eventually exclude the neces-
sity for Importation.
