State Board of Education,

@- This body adjourned on Satur-
day, the 25th ult., after session of three
weeks. The Board, passed twelve bills
i'll all, among which is one entitled An
Act to provide for a system of common
schools, which was passed by a vote of
10 to 2. A correspondent ofthe Express
g. Herald writes as follows in reference
to it
This Act differs but little from that
Of the School Law passed by the Gener-
al Assembly last winter. The District
organization remains unaltered, except
that no provisions are made for incorpor-
ated towns becoming separate school
districts. The entire township is to con-
stilute one school district, and the school
money is to be distributed among the
several school districts i'll proportion to
the number OF persons residing in such
districts between the age of 5 and 81
years. This means the entire school
fund, that raised by taxes, as we'll as the
interest received from the school fund Of
The State.

TO tie Western Patrons Of The Merchant $
Despatch Fast Freight Line

In consequence of the repeated attacks which
have been made ON me by Forwarding q Com
mission Merchants of Dubuque, through the
columns of the Express q Herald, for not deliv-
ering Freight destined west of Dubuque to them
when the packages were simply marked to their
care, but not consigned to them on Bill of La
ding, deem it my duty as Agent of the Mer-
chants Despatch TO place the matter beftre our
patrons as it really is, and allow them to Judge
for themselves of the business of the course pur-
sued by me during the last season in regard to
consigned freight. ! do not deny that have
repeatedly refused to deliver goods to Dubuque
Commission Merchants, even when the packa-
that all persons who shipped by our line, did SO
in order to receive their freight promptly and
at the lowest possible rate per hun bred pounds,
therefore l have not considered it right that
Freight contracted by us should be subjected to
any extra charges at Dubuque when it could
easily be avoided. Great care has always been
observed to deliver goods gong west to the Du-
buque d Pacific railroad, at contract rates, coll
Letting the same amount of charges Of the Rail
road that would have been collected of DUBUQUE
Commission Merchants, had the freight been
delivered to them, thereby saving to the ow ners

would have paid had delivered the goods ns
marked on packages. And further, / wish it
distinctly understood by our patrons that it
makes no difference to me, pecunarily or other
wise, to whom deliver their goods. If have
erred by taking this course, it is because I
thought by so doing was advancing the inter
csts OF our patrons. If the Western patrons Of
the Merchants Despatch wish me to deliver
their goods to Forwarding Merchants i'm Du-
buque, and thus subject them to the extra
charges, all it is necessary for them to do is 10
say so, and it shall be done ; but they will also
please bear in mind that will deliver then an

is your wish to pay Dubuque Commission

can easily avoid and get along without it, of

New Revenue Law.

Ess- AS the Revenue Law passed bv
our Legislature last winter, has made a
radical change in the method of collect
ing delinquent taxes, and as there is a
general desire, among the people of this
county, to ascertain what the law really
iG, we have extracted those sections re-
lating TO the collection of the revenue,
and publish them on the first side of this
weeks paper. 1t viii be seen that the
delinquent taxes are to be collected from
tie personal property Of the Delinquent
Tx payer, when sufficient personality, ex
cmpt from taxation, can be found. The
time for distress and sale is at the option
OF the treasurer, after the 18th day OF
January. He can, if he chooses, iume-
diately after that date, proceed to collect
by distress and sale, or he can favor de-
linquents by an extension of the time.
This officer is thus placed in very deli
cate position, for whether he is prompt
or tardy in enforcing This provision OF
the law, he will be sure to receive good
share CT anathema. In view of the ex-
IRENE difficulty under which we all labor
10 procure the necessary means to pay
our taxes, we think it the duty of the
treasurer to delay the forciblc collection
of the revenue as long as the interests OF
the county will permit. AS soon as
spring and navigation opens, and emigra-
ton again commences, there is lively
prospect that our produce will be in de-
mand, and will bring us good prices in
cash. If this idea is realized, most OF
US will be able to pay our quota of gov
ernment expense without any material
sacrifice. If this expectation is not re-
allied, We can then be in no worse posi-
ton than we are at present. We know
OF II certainty that it is the intention of
our worthy treasurer to give all the leni-
ency possible in this matter, and for this
reason We feel no hesitation in thus pub
llcly making suggestion to him. Tax
payers will doubtless be most sensitive in
reference to the proposed ultimate mea-
surcs for the collection Of the taxes, and
a sacrifice of popularity will surely and
deservediy follow any unnecessary haste
81 parliality in the application of those
measures. 1t seems to US, then, that
should the interests of the county not
suffer thereby. a fair and satisfactory
course for ths treasurer to pursue, would
be, 10 put off the sale for delinquent tax
the same length of time as formerly. until
May or June, and then to make perfect
~ impartial, and as near as can be, stimuli
ctneous, lcyy upon the property of the
delinquenls.. He would thereby give
" crlsis-struck" taxpayers chance to
meet his demands without that sacrifice
which more prompt enforcement of the
law would compel. and would insure the
future, IS we believe he now fully possesses
the present COED opinion of The people Of
the county.

GREAT FEMALE MEDICINE,

Females who value health should never be
without these Pills. 1t has been admitted by q
number of physicians, that females cannod toe
highly value them. They have given health
and spirits to hundreds of females who without
them would have been in their graves. They
purify the blood, remove distractions, and give
the skin beautiful, clear, healthy and interest
ing appearance. A box of these Pills is a great
medical companion at certain periods. From
one to three should be taken every day until re
lief is obtained. A few doses occasionally
when well, will keep the system in healthy
condition.
