EDITORIAL BREyITIES.

sB- Gen. knight, of Charleston, Tenn,
was run over BY train and killed few
days ago.
- The value of the wool raised in Ohio
the past year is estimated at six millions of
dollars.
~ A clergyman of New York recently
preached a very earnest discourse on the
'hard times" enforcing the duty of re-
trenchment and economy. Immediately at
ter church the congregation took him at his
word by holding meeting at which his sal
airy was cut down from 81 900 to 5000.
- Two negroes murdered two women at
Camden, Ark, and burned the house in
which the murder was committed. The in
habitants tied the murderers to a stake, and
burned them on the spot where they commit
ted the crime.
81 Brigham Young, in his last discourse
to the Mormons, asserts that if the army
that is marching upon them understood the
real character of the Saints, ''they would
turn round and tell their officers to 60 to
hell"
~ A fellow, protesting to be q lawyer,
has been arrested at Muscatine, Iowa, on a
charge of swindling number of Indianians
out of two dollars each, by writing them
that certain individual had died leaving
them legacy Of 16O acres of land in Gin
ton county, to secure which they must en-
close fee for making out the papers.
wA party of brokers who visited a
bank at Mansfield, Ohio, few days since,
were mobbed and driven out Of the State
The mob was headed by Ex-Governor Ford.
- John Hogue and George Mcdonald
who were sent to the Penitentiary from Ter
re Haute, in September last, made their es
cape few days ago.
w Governor Willard has pardoned the
notorious Burton, who was convicted for
burglary in Terre Haute some time ago.
~ Several distinguished American Of
dcers are now in Washington endeavoring to
get into the British Army for service in In
dia.
W-A letter from Hamburg states that
that city is filed with emigrants for New
York. The German emigration is constant
ly increasing.
~ Mademoiselle Rachel, the tragedienne,
has so far recovered as to be able to take a
part in game of poker. Although Madame
is an old maid, she has two sons. One is the
acknowledged son of Count walewski, whe
is son of Napoleon by Polish lady.

DELINQUENT TAX LISTS.

It is now the season for the publica-
ton Of the delinquent tax lists in all the
counties of the State, and they are likely
this year to be long and large in amount.
Alta period when taxes are so oppressive,
the abuses in their mode of collection
should be Immediately and radically re-
formed. In all the corruptions that have
crept into the administration of the laws
of the State, there are none so iniguitous
and unjustifable-in small way--as the
mode Of publishing the delinquent tax
lists. The law requires that they shall
be published in newspaper in the coun-
ty, or if they can be published cheaper in
handbill, that form shall be adopted. In
most of the counties the lists are too
long to be inserted in a newspaper with
out excluding the ordinary reading mat
ter. They are therefore almost univer-
sally published in handbill form, as a
supplement to the paper, and charged at
the highest, and often double the ordina-
~ rates of transient advertising in the
paper, though they are never placed in
its columns. The cost of publishing the
handbill is not one sixth of the expense
of advertising; but by this spurious COM
bination of handbill and newspaper, a
handbill that costs 800 to print and
publish is charged to the county at 500
or $500, and the difference is pocketed
by the manager of the organ of the par
ty that has control Of the county affairs
for the time being. 1t is regular levy
assessed by political managers upon the
honest tax payers in every county to
support their unscrupulous partizan
sheets. One half of them could not sur.
viye year without this forced contribu
ton from the public. The citizens ir
nearly every county in the State are an
nually taxed for 5000 to $500 more thar
fair price for the printing Of these du
plicates; which amount is extorted from
them without law or necessity to just
fy 1t. This county has paid between
500 and $500 for the printing Of a hand
bill tax duplicate that should not, at
fair price, have cost more than S125
The balance went to sustain party
press. Will the tax payers, or the coun
ty commissioners longer tolerate thes
abuses?
