County Anti Assumption Meeting.

The proceedings Of the meeting, held
on Saturday last at buttons old stand
IN the town of Paris, will be found in
another column of this paper. Notwith-
standing the day was uncomfortably
cold, and the travelling disagreeable,
the attendance we are informed was
quite large. The proceedings of the
meeting were conducted with earnest
ness and much unanimity The resolu-
tons adopted, are unequivocal in their
language, and cannot be misapprehen.
ded.
Slmular meetings have recently been
held IN various parts of the State, in al
of which there has been manifested 9
strong determination to oppose the as
sumption scheme in every shape. As
we have stated in previous numbers OF
oar paper, we have never regarded the
assumption project, as having any hope
OF success with the people. For this
reason we have not attached importance
enough to it, to make it a prominent
topic Of remark, as some of our contem
poraries have done. There are amopo
the 100 and fifty newspapers pub
hshed in the State, not over half dozer
that favor the so-called State Assump
ton Scheme ; and these few manifest but
little zeal and earnestness.
1t was supposed at the beginning Of
the agitation of this proposed relief, fol
Indebtedness on account of Railroads
that those towns and cities which had
become largely eneumbered by the is.
suing Of Bonds, would with much unan.
unity favor the measure. But such
seems not to prove to be the case; there
IS apparently strong opposition in the
cities which have loaned their credit. to
avail themselves Of the proposed relief.
The same is true of the farm mortgagors;
some who have mortgaged their farms
IN this county most heavily for Railroad
purposes, we are told, oppose the pro-
ject of State Assumption. A very large
number of remonstrances will be sent to
the Legislature in the early part of the
session, and that body will most likely
put the matter at rest within a few
weeks. @ ...r

II. W. Beechar's Church

The annual renting Of pews in this
church took place on the 4th inst
Some OF the croaking bunker journals
have been intimating that the populari-
.ty of Mr.. Beecher was on the wane.-
The rush for seats in the church, on the
late renting of pews, is sufficient com
mentary. The New York Zri6uas
says:
There has never before been such a
rush for pews in Plymouth Church as
witnessed last evening. The whole
amount realized for rents for the wear
1859 was $24,642,50 exceeding by over
So 900 the sum for which the same seats
were rented last year. The premiums
paid were, in majority of cases, two to
four times the assessed value Tor rental)
for the year. The average prices were
$3.50 to 500. A large number are left
without pews; and much inconvenience
and disappointment is suffered in con
sequence The sale closed at IL Is
o'clsck ?. NJ. Every seat was let.
The enterprise OF building new
church edifce, capable of seating no
less than 5000 persons, is to be prose
cutsd as fast as possible.

Collection Of Taxes on Real Estate

The new Revised Statutes make
very important changes in the mode of
collecting taxes on real estate. The
county Treasurer, instead Of selling the
lands in April, on which the taxes re,
main unpaid, is required to make list
OF them, with the amount of taxes,
charges, and interest thereon at - per
I cent from the first day of January pre-
ceding. Any person may thereafter
pay the taxes, together with the charges
thereon, with interest at 25 per cent.
from the first Monday in April. All
lands on which the taxes and charges
remain unpaid, will, at the expiration of
three years, be sold by the County
Treasurer. The interest which accrues
on the lands after being returned to the
County Treasurer, goes to the County.
There are many other provisions per
tanning to advertising, sale, &c.
There are variety Of opinions in re-
sPect to the merits Of this new law.
Some persons are clamorous for its i'm
mediate repeal-others think it an i'm
.provement on the old method of col
lecting delinquent taxes. However
proper the law may be in principle, it
Will most likely prove the cause Of en-
barrassment i'll the several counties.
because the usual resources derived
from the sale Of the delinquent land in
April will not be realized. Had the
several counties had due notice of the
existence OF such q law, previous to
Their annual meeting in November last.
the contingency which will now arise
might have been ohviated. AS the
matter now stands, legislation of some
Kind will be necessary, to enable the
counties to maintain their credit. The
Fond du Lac Commonwealth suggests
the following romedy:-
"The whole trouble can be obyiate3
by having County Orders draw interest
alter presentation, if they are unpaid.
Inc County loses nothing by the plan,
Tor 1t is getting interest on an equal
amount all the time. Persons who
would speculate in tax certificates for
the purpose of getting twenty-five per
cent. on them, would Just as readily
speculate IN County Orders, if they
were drawing the same interest"
The suggestion Of the Commonwealth
might be well enough to meet the pres
ent emergency, but it would defeat the
intent Of the law, which is to give the
counties the benefit of the twenty per
cent. interest on delinquent lands, in
stead of tax certificate spectators.

Wisconsin Legislature

The Legislature convened at Madi
son yesterday. The Governors mes.
sage will be delivered to-day. WM
T. LfoN, of Racine, was elected Speak.
er OF the Assembly, yesterday afternoon.
Mr. Crane, chief clerk, and Mr.. Monk,
sergeant-at-arms.
The Republicans held an inform al
meeting on Tuesday evening, and wise
ly agreed to employ no more, officers
than are absolutely necessary, and to fix
the pay Of clerks at a moderate price.
The probability is, the Legislative ex-
penses will be considerably diminished,
as compared with former years. A
good beginning which we trust it will
hold out.

The editor OF The Tunes Is a good OBJ
server Of facts and events but no phi
losopher. lie applies causes to effects
about as accurately and correctly as
Sandwich Islander once appropria-
ted the various articles Of dress given
him by a European; in the disposal of
which the shoes were appointed to hold
his food instead Of his feet. In an arti-
Gle in the last weeks Times, the editor
Of that paper gives very truthful and
graphic description of things, as they
now exist in this State in financial mat,
ters:
Business il paralyzed. There is no
money-no trade-no employment
There is no capital, and apparently no
use for capital. The laborer has no
means to earn his bread for the winter
The farmer has no market for his pro-
duce The merchant can get no pay.
Nobody out Of the State will trust any
body in the State. There is no activity
anywhere, in anything. No home man
utactures to sustain home industry
The banks are cramped. Debts cannot
be collected"
No one at all acquainted with our f.
nancial matters, can dispute this.
But to poin. out the real cause or
causes of this state of things, requires a
candid, serious, unprecedented investiga-
ton. In the case Of the Sandwich Isl
ander, it appears that he wanted some
thing to hold his food, more than he
wanted clothing--he sees the shoe is
hollow-sets upright-will hold solids
and liquids-and he makes a dish out
.of it. In the case Of the editor of the
Times, it appears that he rants an ar
gument against the Republican party,
in facts hard pressed for one-the
present financial condition of our State
affords one that can be turned to that
account by little shaping and little
tact, therefore he says, for the cause Of
our hard times
"Look to Madison-to the halls of the
senate and assembly-to the executive
department! If our State taxes are I'M
reasonably and oppresSively high, the
reason Of it may be found there.
If State reputation has been
sacrlficed-business depressed-qndtho
enterprise Of the State crippled and its
energies compressed and subdusd, there
is but one source to look for the main
cause Of it all"
Now, a candid man who, seeks rea2ly
for the causes of our ''hard times'' finds
that, although State officers may have
had something to do in bringing about
this condition Of things, they have not
mainly, nor in any conspicuous manner,
seemed to be the cause of the universal
prostrotion in the business and financial
world. This depression is UNIVERSAL
Ships lie rotting at Marseilles and Ports
mouth, at New Y ork and San Francisco.
Hammers and forges are silent from
Maine to Oregon. Hands are not alone
seeking work and finding it not in Wis

Mr.. EDITOR, "A few weeks since.
the Kenosha Times published an article
relating to the proceedings of the Bap-

to mislead the public mind and being
