lates that The prices will fall still lower, il
consequence Of 'ithetr ndous' quantity ex,

$4,000 to 5000 barrels" The letter fur

"Coal here is very scarce indeed; all
the steamers in the river stopped in con
sequence ofthe high prizes yesterday. Some
was sold for ,forty-eight dollars. United
States currency, per ton. lie adds, that he
thinks ffy dollars per ton might be obtain

with shipping, and the city so crowded tina
many persons were compelled to live IL

TAX ExEMPTIoN.-The Dayton Journal,
in some remarks upon the tux law speaks OF
the $40 ~exemptinn, ma tho sImtt Of tbe Io-
cefoco exemption" He docs injustice To
Mr.. Gest and many Of his Wing compatriots
who opposed any exemption, The truth is
that some Of both parties opposed any ex-
emption because they believed 1t a door to
fraud The Senate however, insisted on an
exemption OF SlbO. The House struck it
out and inserted S25. A committee of con
ference recommended $50 and it was adopt
ed without regard to party lines. That Is
just the whole ofit-demagoguesl 10 the con-
trary StatSsmap.
Well how does this help the matter! Our
objection was not the amount Of the eXcmp-

particularly because it taxed, as you alleg-
ed "hee hives "side saddles rifles, '"bed-

SociALrsrs.-There is nothing from which
a young man stands so much in danger as a
full development of the social faculties, IN
a large city. There are 50 many tempta-
tons to sin a little for the sake of compan-
ionship, that ere he knows it, he may hnd
his passage engaged and his trunk packed
for perdition. He is a big-heartcd fellow,
coniding and free. He has no suspicion of
man traps, or that evil spirits are impresstng
him through the powers Of good fellowship,
when he yielded to the voice of the tempter.
+Phrenology locates the social organs on the
hind part Of the head, and the devil creepsi in
by these back doors of the brain. He sees
no thorns among the roses that beset his
path.
Thus the quality ofmind d~estinedby Heav-
en- to conduct mostto his own true hdppi-
ness, and the hapPiness Of the world, boz
comes perverted, andtends to his ruin
One of social quality large would do well to
attach himself 10 some literary or benevo-
lent society, and in thus mingling with those
of similar feeling with himself, he would ex-
~ercise fully the kindly emotions OF his mind
and make himself happy in conducting to the
happiness of others. One of the best fea'
lures Of odd fellowship is, that while it ad
mits of the largest scope of the social feel
ing, it keeps within a healthy restraint thu
exuberance that would tend to excess il 9th
erwise developed. We would say to young
men, connect yourself with lodges, or libra
ries, or divisions, or sewing circles, o.
churches, anywhere you please, anddepen'
upon it you will be wiser and happier, ant
better than you would have been if you ha,
