BY reference to the compilation it will be seen
that the tax on manufactured tobacco has been
changed, as also has that ON segars. Other
changes in the rates levied will also be found
there noted.
In the passage Of the bill through the Senate
change was made, important both TO the tax
paying community and to those seeking Offices.
The amount of compensation fixed for assessors
Zone of the principal classes Of oficers) by tho
House was three dollars per day, and ono dol
lar for each hundred names on the tax lists
furnished by them to the collectors. This sum
was increased to five dollars per day, the COM
mission ON the names remaining the same.
The compensation allowed these officers will
amount to large item in the national expendi-
lures; for if there should be but so, 900 taxable
persons in each assessment district 1t would
reach, for each ono, the sum Of $4,000 per
annum.
The taxgatherer, from whose presence. we
have heretofore been free, will soon be in our
midst. We're the object for which the taxes
are levied less patriotic, the people might feel
oppressed by the burden. AS 1t is, but few
will be found mean enough to grudge furnish
ing their mite towards the support Of the CO.
yernment and the punishment Of traitors.

GHsE ROMANCE OF WAR.

There was quite romantic little incident
which occurred in connection with the re-
cruiting of Capt Boar dman's company, which
deserves at Least passing notice. While
Lieut.. Granns was in the full excitement of
recruiting at Strawberry Point last week, a
smeoth-faced boy came into the village and
proceeded Immediately to the recruiting Of
flee and enlisted, giving his name as Will
Jams, and his age eighteen. Although his
checks were as fair as a girls, his clear eye
denoted health and endurance sufficient for n
soldiers life. After the company was filled
and they had repaired to Manchester for the
purpose Of taking the cars, suspicious were
thrown out that young Williams was sailing
under false colors. Good judges Of the hu-
man form divine fancied that the clothes fit
ted too clese in some places, and were too
loose in others, for masculinity The good
citizens of Manchester gave the company a
complimentary ball, and there various sharp
ones compared notes as to the affairs of the
handsome volunteer, and the universal con-
cuson was that he, she, or it, was girl dis
guised as boy. This matter was submitted
to committee Of ladies', and they agreed to
make an examination, and ascertain from
physica! proofs whether it was lady or a
gentleman. There never was more interest
occasioned by the doubtful sex of Ella 10Y
ara than reigned for short time in reference
to poor little Williams. Why ladies should
make the necessary investigation instead of
the opposite sex we cannot tell Supposng
their suspicious had proved incorrect, what
then? However the brave little patriot
swore that he was a man and brother to the
last, and it was only when the committee in
formed it that they should satisfy themselves
on the disputed point that it confessed
Yes, it was woman and not u bad looking
one either.
She was discovered to be decent, respect
able girl, about whom there had never been
a breath of harm. She had entered the army
from pure love of country and love o: ad-
venture. Perhaps love for the generous
bounty, or love for some brave young sold
ier had some influence; who knows?
The joke Of the matter was in the fact that
very straight-laced young Methodist had
be:n sleeping with the female volunteer right
along for several nights, and never knew the
difference. He came near fanting with hor
ror oif.hand when he learned how uncon-
sciously he had imperilled his immortal soul
Miss Williams was clothed in her proper
attire, and given employment in Manchester
where she now resides.

HOW THE 100000 GALE AFFECTS
THE REBELS.

The rebel prints at the South cannot con-
ceal their trcpidation at the preparations now
in progress by our Government to prosecute
the war on larger scale and with more ter
rife energy than hitherto. The Presidents S
calls for 600, 600 more men, and the prompt
response that is being made thereto in all the
loyal States, have alarmed them, although
they Of course try to disguise their foars
They have gone to figuring up estimates
Q! the number Of men they can raise at tho
utmost TO meet the additional forces of the
Federal Government and play the game of
brag quite extensively, some claiming that
they can raise two millions of white men for
the army, and others more modest, asserting
that they can bring their numbers up to "at
least a million" These speculations and the
renewed efforts that are apparent to whistle
up the courage of the rebels generally indi-
cate their fears.
And well may they take alarm. With ov-
er million of hardy Northern soldicrsin the
field, and as many more to come If needed
they well know that they cannot hold out
for any great length oftime against manifest
destiny" Without arming their negroes the
rebels can never muster more than eight hun
dred thousand men, if so many. Their talk
about being able to bring two million or even
one million of white men into the field, is alb
surd, for, even if they had the men, they
could not arm or subsist them while the
blockade is in force
With good generalship and thorough deter
minaton on the part of our national authori-
ties, the Federal army now in the field, in
creased to over a million men will sweep
down the rebellion in short order--and none
know so well as do the rebel leaders them
selves that they cannot long Withstand this
superior force. They will be driven from
their strongholds, and, unless they yield 20
save their bacon, they will be cxtermina.od
from off the face Of tho earth. The Govern
ment demands of them "Yeld or die !'---
Yield they must or the terrible alternative
will necessarily have to be applied This re-
bellion must be put down at all hazards and
the Republic must be restored to its unity
and the country to peace, even if it costs cv-
cry Southern life. This the loyal people have
decreed

PARsoN BRowNLow ON NORTHERN REBEL

EvESING.-There are two periods in the
life of man, in which the evening hour is pc
culiarly interesting-youth and old age. In
youth we love its mellow moonlight, its mil
lions Of stars, it's soothing shades and sweet
serenity. Amid these, scenes we can com
mune with those we love and twine the
wreath of friendship, while there are none
to bear witness but the gorgeous heavens
and spirits that hold their endless Sabbath
there. We look abroad upon creation, spread
in the slumber of a moonlight seen around,
and wrapped in contemplation, fancy we see
and hear the waving wings and melting songs
of purer worlds. 1t accords with the light
flow of the youthful spirit, the fcrvency Of
fancy and the softer feelings Of the heart.
Evening is most delightful to vrtuous age
It affords hours o. undistur5cd thought. 1t
seems an emblem Of the calm and Tranquil
close of busy life. serene and mild, with the
impress of its great Creator enstamped upon
it. II spreads its quiet wings above the
grave, and seems that all shall be peace be-
yond it.

PARsoN BRowsLow's notice of John Sill
dell, in arccent speech, is COED specimen Of
right down hearty abuse. perhaps" he
said, "some you men with gray hairs among
my hearers have visited Washington, and
have seen John Slidell. If you have, you
have seen an exact counterpart of a full grown
onrang outang. When God Almighty placed
the head ON his shoulders, He did it with the
expectation that nobody would mistake him
for an honest man." The Parson character
lied him further as the " butt cut of original
sin and the upper crust of nastincss," and
said he would not insult the memory of Judas
Iscariot by comparing him with the modern
traitor.
