AN IMPoRT ANT TAXATION FACT.--The
Ohio State Democrat remarks, in speaking
OF the finance report of Mr.. Atkinson in the
Senate, that one fact stated in it is pregnant
with interest:
on all the taxes collected last year, "only
S257, ,444, 80 came into tlle State treasury;
the remainder, amounting to otwomillions and
half Of dollars. was collected fer township,
school, corporation, Or other special purpo-
scs.
"The place to correct this evil OF high
taxation, the report rightly says, "is in the
hands Of the County Commissioners, City
Councils, Township Trustees, and other 10.
cal authorities, who exercise the power oI
taxation" But few think of this--the mass
Of tsx payers rnthinklngly charge the whole
upOr the State Government and upon the
Legislature, while in truth the evil is nearer

TIE KANE ExPEDHoN-Nearlya year
and-a half has elapsed since the Arctic Ex.
pedition under the command Of our towns
man, DR.. Kane, set sail from New York
More than twelvemonth has passed since
the last intelligence from the adventurous
explorers was received. The whole of the
season now terminating has been peculiarly
favorable for their researches, so that their
return may not be unreasonably expected
at an early period in tho present autumn.
Rarely before was the Atlantic SO full Of
drifting ice as during the past spring. It
seemed as veteran navigators said, os if the
frozen barriers which had heretofore guard
ed the pole had at last broken completely
away, opening an lngress, for the first time
probably, within the memory Of man, to
the daring expeditionists. We look for
great results, in consequence from the en-
terprise of Dr. Kane. The extraordinary
connection of favorable season and a sin
gular able leader cannot but be fruitful of
important discoveries The existence or
non-existence of a vast polar ocean is almost
certain to be demonstrated. 1t is to be
hoped, however, that the ardor ofdiscovery
has not tempted DR.. Kane too far, so as
to prevent his return this year. 1t is
enough to lose Franklin. To sacrifice
also Kane In the same generation would
be paying to high penalty, even for Arc
tic explorations PhiLa, Ledger.

B1- The Missouri compromise" says
the Madison Courier, is hallowed by the
time and experience" This compromise
prohibited slavery on one side of line,
and sanctioned it on the other. Whilst it
existed, slavery was very bad, North of a
particular line, and very well south of it.
This is the haAored doctrine. "Time and
experience are great things when they
can make what is wrong on one side of a
line, right on the other. Good for time
and experience. > L0niSrWe Dem.

ARREST OF Cart. HoLLIxs.--Somc Of
the papers doubt whether Capt. Hollips
can be held personally responsible for the
distraction Of the goods and merchandise
of GalFaR Durand, at Greytowa. De they
remember the case of Harmony & Co., in
which a recovery was had against Col.
Mitchell, Of the army, for the seizure Of
their gnods IN New MCxicoH In the latter
case there was declared war, aud Gen.
Taylor gave the order; in the present case
there was no war by the proper authorities.
But the Government will scarcely seek TO

The Chinese Battle.

This affair took place at Weaverville,
Trinity County
The Yreka Herald says it originated
from dispute about small gambling debt;
the controversy ending in personal en-
counter, which aroused a sectional and po-
litical difficulty for long time existing be-
tween them in their Oriental home. The
Herald says:
"The parties were very unequally divided
on the occasion-one party numbering over
300, the other less than l20; the smaller
party being much more courageous than
the larger one, and most anxious for the
fray. Some Of the citizens promised the
lesser fair show in the fight, and sided
with them on account of their inferiority Of
numbers.
The two parties were stationed on oppo-
site sides of Il ravine, where there was much
good generalship shown by both parties
The larger party attempted to out-lanli
the smaller one, which they were deferred
from doing by the citizens, who manifested
great desire for fair play. The smaller
party kept in close column, bravely daring
their numerous enemies to make the charge
as It Ind been agreed TO be hand to hand
conflict.
Not succeeding in their inducement, the
smaller party made the charge across the
ravine, with terrible bravery and blood
thirsty ferocity, killing and wounding as he
fore stated. They fought with spears and
large forks made for the purpose. The
greatest utility Of the fork was manifested
in only one instance, in pinning a man tC
the ground and leaving him there in agon
izing death.
The charge lasted about three minutes
resulting in the entire route of the large
party, they being undoubtedly intimidateC
by the citizens firing pistols and throwing
stones among them. All who witnessed
the charge agree that it was Of the mos
desperate character" ID.
A correspondent of the Shasta Courier
writes as follows .4. ....
"All day the greatest excitement pre-
vailed throughout town some, were for
others against their figting. Our sheriff
did all in his power to stop the difficulty
up to the latest hour but could accomplish
nothing-6ght they would. and fight they
did. Bat their differences are in no better
condftioRnow'thanthey were before. Nei
ther dare go TO work, one is afraid of the
other, consequently, both are idle. So mat
tiers stand at the present,
On Sunday the large party collected
their dead together and burned them, il
the same manner as do the Indians of thi,
country, and then buried their ashes The
small party Buried theirs with all the i'm
posing ceremonies of war-they all turned
out in funeral possession and followed the
bodies to their graves, accompanied by mu
sic as white men would. The white mar
killed was buried the same day. 1t was {
day Of funerals. Long will it be remember
ed by the people Of this town.

ACES OF ASMALs.-A bear rarely eX-
ceeds twenty years, dog lives twenty
years; fox fourteen or sixteen; lions are
long-lived-Pompey lived to the age of Sc
vcnty. The average age of cats is fifteen
years; sVirrel and hare seven or eight
years; rabbits seven. Elephants have been
known to live TO the age OF four hundred
years. When Alexander the Great had
conquered one Porus, king of India, he
took great elephant, which had fought
very valiantly for the king, named him
Ajax, dedicated him TO the sun, and then
let him'go with this inscription: "Alexan-
der, the sun Of Juper, hath dedicated Ajax
to the sum-" This elephant was found with
this inscription three hundred and fifty
years after, Pigs have been known to live
to the age Of thirty years; the rhinoceros
to twenty A horse has been known to
live to the age Of sixty-two, but averages
twenty-five to thirty. Camels sometimes
live to the age of one hundred. Stays are
long-lived. Sheep seldom exceed the age
OF ten.--Cows live about fifteen years
CuTier considered it probable that whales
sometimes live one thousand years. The
dolphin and porpoise attain the age of thr-
ty. An eagle died at Vienna at the age
of one hundred and four years. Ravens
frequently reach the age OF one hundred
Swans have been known to live three hun
dred years. Mr. Mallerton has the skele-
ton of a swan, that attained to the age of
two hundred. A tortoise has been known
to live one hundred and seven.
