Tax on BANK NoTEs.-In 1913, Con.
gress passed law levying a direct tax
of one cent per dollar on the banks for
all exchanges and deposits. This law,
so far as the banks were concerned, was
repeale in 1917. Again, in 1855, Col
Benton, then member Of the House oil
Representatives, asked and obtained
leave to INTRODUCES bill to impose stamp
duty on bank notes and paper currency
-of small denominations. The bill was
read first and second time, referred to
the Committee of the Whole, and was
not afterwards heard of. We observe
that similar proposition has been re-
yiyed in the newspapers. The Cincin-

friends OF constitutional currency" TO the
subject of asking Congress to pass . law,

III RELIGIOUS CONDITION OF, EU-
ROPE.

DIR Baird preached sermon last week,
before the Young Mems CHRISTIAN iAsso-
citation in New York, on the condition
of religion in Europe. He dwelt at some
length on the great progress in true
evangelical religion which he witnessed
in Europe on his recent visit. When he
first went there. in 1885. he could. not
dare to hope that such progress was in
view. Religious liberty had spread
throughout the whole continent; the
congregations even in Catholic countries
had increased. Rationalism and deism
were giving way to the light of the Cos
pei. In the scandinavian countries, in
Germany and Sardinia, he found a won-
derful advance had been made. He con-
cluded by stating that the principal OBJ
Ject OF the late great meeting in Berlin
was to prove to the world that the boast
of the unity of the Catholic church. and
the hostility to each other manifested by
all sects Of Protestants, was not we'll
founded, by showing on how many points
Protestants believed iu common. He
urged on the young men to 60 forward
in the good work of spreading Evangeli-
cal religion in foreign countries. Europe
and America, both South and North,

Capt Van vliet relates the following
!, occurrences during his recent visit to
Salt Lake City. 5ssalo sanil 80 i.l.i ~ !.
He was asked to attend religious ser.
vices in the Bowery, and was escorted
to a prominent seat upon the platform,
and invited to make an address, which
invitation he declined. By counting
the number of persons upon certain tiers
of benches, he e. timated the audience to
exceed $500. After some remarks. by
Heber G. kimbali, discourse was deiv-
cred by Elder John Taylor, formerly
editor OF The Mormon, the newspaper or,
gan os the church in New York city.
AT the close, Mr.. Taylor called the at
tention Of the people to the Captain, and
alluded to his business in the city, re-
counted the substance Of his converse
tons and said that he would make a re-
quest, in order that Capt. Van Yliet
might learn that he had been made ac.
quainted with the determination of the
wholepeople; he would ask that all those
present who were willing to ,raze their
houses, burn their crops, pull down
what they had passed ten years in build.

desert, and retreat to the mountains, in
case the troops should force an entrance,

exception, rose to their feet, and remain
ed standing long enough to enable him
TO see that they were absolutely unani-
nous. 8fgFfFf
sac During the previous proceedings, in
order to answer practically an inquiry
by the Captain concerning the proportion
oil foreigners present to native born and
naturaiIzed citizens, Mr.. Taylor re-
quested all present who belonged to the
two latter classes to raise their hands,
= and about three-fourths Of the audience

The Captain confirms the fact Of the
con ;entration Of the population Of Utah

"AND THERE WERE GIANTS IN THOSE DAYS.
We hope our readers will not be 30 incredu-
ous as to laugh at the following-if they can help
it:
"A correspondent of the National Qil.) Empori~
um wiring from Cleves Ohio, says A few days
ago, while Wat Erkman and Mike Shots were dig
aiog well for James Malson, Esq near North
Bend, Ohio, the skeleton of man. rather of
a giant, was found twenty nine feet below the
surface of the earth-who, when living lowered to
the enormous height of twenty-three feet and ten
inches
Prof. Lind, who examined the skeleton says
The os hnmerus of the skeleton measured six
feet four and half inches, and the superior con-
dyle, where ii enters the glenoied cavity of the
scapula, measured eighteen and three eighths inv
ches in diameter. Hence, says the Doctor, admit.
ting the proportion demonstrated by comparative
anatomy, that all muscular power depends on the
magnitude of the articuating condyes of the limbs
to which they are attached, we must arrive at the
startling fact, that this nonster man while ia the
full vigor of life, was twenty.three feet and ten
inches high, and capable of welding the
forearm with sufficient force to have thrown
cannon ball weighing eighteen pounds from Gin.
