State Expenditures.

The reader will rccollcct that the
resolutions, passed by the Republican
State Convention, alluded to the recent
reductions of State expenditures. The
Democrats in their resolutions declare
that "tlc burdens of taxation had in.

present administration of State at.

piled to for the facts, has furnished a
tabular statement of the State Tax
levied in the several counties of the
State for the years 1857, 1858 and
1859. The footing up shows the whole
amount of tax for each year to stand

here arc not very weakened and will
demand a good price. The extent y
to which the outposts " of Floyd

deal to say about State affairs; charges
extravaganza and corruption on the
Republican State officers. The table
of Taxes furnished by the Auditor of
State, answers all that bumbuggery (:
and another simple fact is an addition
al clincher, viz: that the most opprcs-
sivc tax ever levied since the State
was organizcd--three mills on the dol.

Per favor Of John Chapman, Esq,

interesting and important news from
the "old world" In several places
we notice that the Mercury makes

He could do better than that in Iowa

was put into requisition under the able and
JudlciouS management of that worthy repre-
sentative of the Tony Weller school and beau
ideal of whips. Mr. Robert Chapman whc
having an eye to the picturesque, conducted
his friends 10y cirCuitous route, through the
charming park of Gunton. Here were scores
OF lads and lassrs busy in the hay
