FRIEND RIcu 1t is Saturday even
Ing, and thoughts of home and friends in
Old buchanan come crowding thick and
fast before my mind, in pleasant remem-
brance, almost making me, was going
to say, little lonesome. But that is not

EE Sec. STANTON has issued gen
elal order on the battle. of Mill Spring,
Kentucky, praising highly the troops for
their action. At the close of the order
he says
The purpose Of this war is to attack, pursue,
and destroy the rebelliohs enemy, and TO deliv-
er the country fiom the danger menaced by
traitors. Alacrity, daring, courageous spirit
and patriotic zeal on all occasions and under
every circumstance, are expected from the army
of the United States. In the prompt and spir-
tied movements, and daring shown in the bat
tie Of Mill Spring, the nation will realize its
hopes and the people will rejoice to honor every
soldier and officer who proves his courage by
charging with the bayonet and storming en-
trenchmenis in the blaze of the enemy's fire
By order of the President.

County Judges.

GSr In the preparation of the new
Code of this State, the Legislature of 49,
90 curtailed the duties of the County
Judge 10 such an extent as TO leave that
officer, in most counties of the State, al
most without duties and without pay. 1t
left him, in short, little else but probate
business, giving him the fees for com
pen,alioR. which, even in such a county
As this, amount to but little more, we be
lieve, than 800 per annum. And yet
it is generally expected that the County
Judges should keep their Offices constant
fy open for business, making the posi-.
ton one Of great disadvantage to most
men.
Thesc facts have induced an effort, at
The present session of the legislature, to
make the Office one Of greater duties and
better pay. To this end two propositions
have been presented. One to divide the
office o. Treasur, and Recorder, and give
therecording to the County Julg e, confer
ling the fees upon him as payment. The
Other to give him power to Try cases at law
involving sums between certain amounts,
and also to give him criminal jurisdic-
ton similar to that possessed by Justices
OF the Peace, thus establishing a Court
auxiliary 10 the District Court.
OF tie two propositions, the last is
much tie best, in our opinion. We see
nothing whatever to be gained in trans
lerrlns the recording to the County
judge, or any more propricty in connec-
ting 1t with the judges than with the
Treasurers duties. In fact it is a mat
ter of some convenience to have the rec
ords kept in the Treasurer office, which
IS an argument that cannot be urged in
the other case But we think there is
an advantage in giving to the County
Judge the jurisdiction at law proposed.
Our District Courts are burdened with
business, facilitating delays and acceler-
ating expenses. With such an interme-
diate court, having civil jurisdiction in
cases Of from 20 TO 800 dollars, not only
would the District Court be desirably re
iieved, but litigation become less expen-
sive to The county, inasmuch as the par
ties in this inferior Court would pay
their own juries. Parties would also
have more speedy remedy than they
now have through the District Court, and
those necessarily in the District Court
would have prompter and fuller atten-
ton. These seem TO be advantages that
might justify change, if there is really
an object in having the County Judges
duties increased. 1t Ger ainly would be
much preferable to making him County
Recorder. A Probate Judge should be
competent for these duties, and we pre-
sumo most of our County Judges are
We hope if a change is made it will be
in this direction.

understand that there is an effort be-
ing made to have the Ninth in Lanes d.
vision, and if that is accomplished it will
be something that will suit the boys, for
we all know that he will do something
when he gets started. The soldiers are
deserving in large numbers from the Mo.
regiments. Squads Of our men have been
sent out several times in pursuit of them,
ard have brought in quite a number.
Six came in last night, that our men cap

cannot tell. We have one prisoner
here, in the military prison, that was ia.
ken as spy by the 9th, and the sentence
OF death has been passed. upon HIM, and
it has been sent in to Gen Halleck to be
approved. If he approves it, it will be
carried into effect. | suppose but few
of your readers are acquainted with the
modes of punishment that are resorted
to in the cases Of those who have wan
dered from The paths Of rectitude. duty,
and military discipline. There are diff
lerent grades of punishment, according
TO the enormity of the offence. For in
stance, if one of the boys happens TO slip
the guard at night, as is often the case,
and is caught, his knapsack is filled with
his clothes and blanket, and he swings
it on his back, shoulders his gun, and
marches on the color line four or FIVE
hours. If one Of the boys gets little
booty, as is seldom the case, he has the
honor of riding the 'regimental horse, as
he is styled. He is about seven feet in
height, with four legs all of a size, body
about six inches in width, to set upon
without saddle or bride and consequent
ly no stirrups, which make ii a little un-
comfortable for ones legs. One poor
fellow, for sleeping on his post, was Court
Marlialed and sentenced to pack his
knapsack and gun around circle about
two rods ia diameter so many hours
day for certain length of time, to suffer
ten days close confinement, TO be fed up
on bread and water, and, to cap the eli
max, to forfeit one-half of three months
pay. So much for sleeping upon his post
in an enemy's country. We have had
very mild, pleasant winter, until quite
lately. Recently had considerable rainy
weather. and consequently plenty Of Mis-
souri, mud. II. p. w.

For the Guardian.
Direct Taxation.

For the first time in the history of,his
country, it has become necessary for the
Government to lay direct taxes, and the
estimate of its wants are, besides the rev.
enue from taxes on imports, over one
hundred millions of dollars year, by di-
rect taxation. And while the !" WAYS and
Means" Committee and the Bankers are
comforting together, as to whether it is
better to issue one or tpo hundred mill
ions more of Treasury notes-and, in fact,
as the immense cost of this war becomes
more and more apparent-the warning Of
a truthful but eccentric divine who wrote
more than 40 years ago in the eden
burgh Review" seems almost prophet
ic. Speaking of the price nation paid
for war, and the sur port of an army, he
said the consequences would be:
" 1ares upon every article which en-
ters into the mouth, or covers the back,
or is placed under the foot-taxes upon
every thing which it is pleasant to see,
hear, feel, smell or taste--taxes upon
warmth, light and Observation-Disclosures on
everything on earth, aud the waters I'M
der the earth-oI everything that comes
from abroad or is grown at home-taxes
on the raw material-taxes on every
fresh value that is added to it by the in
dustry of man-taxes on the sauce which
pampers mans appetite and the drug that
restores him to health-on the ermine
which decorates the Judge, and the rope
which hangs the criminal-on the poor
mans salt, and the rich mans spice-on
the brass nails of the coffin, and the
ribbons of the bride. The school boy
whips his taxed top--the beardless youth
manages his taxed horse, with taxed
bride, on taxed road, &C., &C."
1t may make US wiser and better
people, it certainly will do US good, to be
compelled to pay cash down for our priv
ileges. We shall no doubt more fully
appreciate our taxed Railroad ride to
Dubuque or Cedar Falls, and give more
attentive heed TO our taxed gold watch
