There Is no news Of conseque nee from the West

Of an occasional skirmsh and The Smelling Of gum
boas now and then, matters lemaa quiet below, since
the raid upon Hamilton. The impression, however
prevails that The enemy is concentr asing forces al

To the Tobacco Growers OF
THE 18TH DISTRICT.

H f.t
During last winter we published an
Extract from the Congressional Globe,
showing that it was through the inde-
fatigable labors of Hon. JAMES r.
MORRIS that the tax of three dollars
on each hundred pounds was defeated.
Mr.. Horton from this District and Chair
man. of the Committee that had the mat
ter under consideration, said in Congress.
"that the arganssnts of Mr.. Norris had
conv;nced him thos Ms fax ,cas ,crong, !"
and if he had not labored so zealously
the tax would have gone through, thereby
almost impoverishing large number of
the citizens Of this district. All this
time Mr.. CUTLER morris opponent) was
doing and saying nothing, simply because
it affected only the interests of the WHITE
LABoRINa MEN of his district. IF q
