HONEST OLD Fatrxoe -Iou rene mber
the story of the note Of hand passed between
two Pennsylvanians Hans lent Stats hun
dred dollars, and between them, they man
aged to write a note, but then the question
came up which should keep the note. At
last it WAS agreed that Stats, who had bor-
rowed the money, should keep the note. SO
as to know when it must be paid. At the
time appointed he brought the note and the
money and Hans took them both. and kept
the note, that he mi ght be sure it was paid.
But this old story is not half as good as one
which western New York Correspondent
furnishes. of some of the pioneers who set
tied in the region from which he writes
MANY years ago, the first settlers in this
country, then a wilderness almost. were obhg
ed to take their grain one hundred and fifty
miles IN wagons to Albany, to find
IA market. The roads were bad and travel
ing dangerous Three of our farmers found
purchaser for their loads OF wheat at Amster-
dam, village some twenty five miles west
Of Albany, aud were glad to dispose OF it and
save themselves the travel They took an
order on the bank at Amsterdam for their
pay, which was offered them in silver, but

bank. The officers of the bank refused to
give them the bills, because the farmers Were
going far out into the wilderness that the
bills would never come back to the bank
again. The matter was finally compromls-
ed BY the banks paying each of them one
dollar extra on their consenting to receive sill
yer instead of paper
We think we can add one equally as good.
The farmers in New Jersey were formerly
accustomed to dispose of their produce in
New York aud Philadelphia and to exchange
the city bills received foi those of the banks
in their neighborh9od. considering the latter
much safer 1t happened one prosperous
season that the demand for home bills had
been SO great, that the circulation Of one of
the banks was exhausted, SO that it could ex-
change no more ot its owns bills for those
brought by the farmers. The alarm soon
spread-the bank must soon fail it had al
ready exhausted It's resources SO far that it
could not pay out its own bills; and there was
a general rush to the bank to secure, if pos
sible, some of the bills before it should be
too late. The officers succeeded in paeifying
the public by promising a larger issue IN a
few tays.

With his graceful dress, soldierly bearing,
and visilant attitude, th - Zouave at an out
post IS the beau ideal Of a soldier
They neglect no opportunity of adding to
their personal comforts; if here is a stream in
the vicinity, the party marching on PICKET is
sure to be amply supplied with fishing rods,

Their movements are the most light and

but the foot seems scarcely to touch the
ground, and the march is apparently made
without effort or fatigue
The step of the foot rifles is shorter and
quicker, and not 50 easy and graceful.
The impression produced BY the appear
ance of these two corps is very different; the
rifles look like active. energetic little fellows,
who would find their best fields as skirmish-

the activity and energy Of the others, that

CIRCULATION OF INcENDIARY PuBLI- CATIONS. - Washington, Dec. 7.-The Postmaster General has received letter from the postmaster at Falls Church, Va, in which, after referring to the opinion of the Attorney General of Virginia sustain ing the constitutionaity of the statute of that State, denouncing under heavy pen alties the circulation of books, newspa- pers, pamphlets, &c.. tending to excite the slave population to instruction, he asks to be instructed as to his duty in reference to such documents, should they be received through the mails for distribution at the office of which he has charge. The Post master General replies that the people of Virginia may mol only forbid the introduce ton and dissemination of such documents within thelr borders, but if brought there in .he mails, they may, by appropriate proceedings, have them destroyed. They have the same right 10 extinguish the fire brands thus impioasly hurled in the midst of their homes and altars that a man has to pluck the burning fuse from bomb- shell which is about to explode at his feet.

Taxation of Swamp Lands.

The following opinion, by the Solicitor General of the State of Arkansas. says the Little Rock True Democrat, will be read with interest by those who purchased swamp lands prior to Jannary. lS55.- County courts, clerks and assessors, will see that the opinion is positive as regards the taxation of these lands for county and local purposes. The position taken by the Solicitor General will, no doubt, be vigorously assaied by parties in interest, but, until set aside by courts of compe- ten, jurisdiction, officers will be governed by il:
 LITTLE RocK, Dec. 12, 1S59 siR.--ln answer to your enquiry as to what swamp lands are taxable, I have to say that, 1st. According to the declsons of the Su- preme Court of Arkansas, in the State vs. Crittenden County Court-19 Ark. 375- swamp lands purchased prior to the llth of January, 1855, are not taxable for STATE PUR- POSES, for ten years from the date of entry.- That decision is to be restricted to State taxa tion, and does not touch local taxation at all. As the 14th section of the act of 1851, must be strictly construed, it must be held to apply to State taxation only. Therefore, swamp lands, whether entered before or after the repeal of the 14th section, are taxable for county, or for local, or special purposes; and especially subject to a levee tax, like other lands, in counties where the levee system pre- vails; and furthermore. there cannot be, as I conceive, sincere doubt as to the constitu- tionality of the levee laws, and feel cenfi- dent they will be sustained, when the courts come to pass upon them, although differences of opinion exist on the subject.
 If there should be dcabt, as to whether swamp lands, entered prior to the 11th of January, 1855, are taxable for county or loca l purposes, there can be but little, if any, that swamp lands entered after that time, whether with cash, new scrip, or old scrip, are taxable for all purposes, State. county and special 1; and am convinced it must be so held when ever the courts shall decide the question:
 Very respectfully,
 your ob't servant

THE MEDIrERRAEEAN FRENCH LAKE.-In the zenith of his ambition, to make the Mediterranean French lake was one of the grand dreams of the First Napoleon. England now sees, or thinks she sees, evidences of the renewal of these ambitious designs in Napoleon III. This is the real cause of the jealousy of England as to the power of Spain along the African coast, and especially.at Tan giers. France knows we'll enough that all the power that Spain can wrest from the Emperor of Morocco is just as good as in his hands. He can govern Spain, and if Spain can command the Straits of Gib- ralter, 1t Is the same thing to him as if he had acquired it. Besides, one-haf of a pair of shears is of no use to any one but give him the other half and he can cut. Spain can command the other side, and there is no question but that il would occupy an important position in regard to that inland sea.

MORE AFRICANS COMING. The Sea Coast { Miss. Democrat of the Eth inst, under the Head of " Good News has the following:
 We learn from good authority that a cargo of African slaves is expected in Ship Island Harbor the latter part of the present month. They will, if they arrive safe, be landed without any attempt at se- crecy; the canslgnees trusting to the sentiment predominant in Mississippi, as the necessity of increasing the number of laborers, for a triumphant acquttal in the event of Government prosecution. We wish the gentlemen engaged ia the enter- prise much success in their patriotic and humane undertaking No doubt the Afr- cans themselves will prove grateful and diligent when they find how kind their owners will treat them, compared with their former savage, pagan masters.
