Among the nominations for Brgader-Gen-

Subsequently, O regiment was offered hun by
the Governor Of Massachusetts, but beng IN
the Regular Army, with the rank of Captain,
he was compelled to serve wherever he wa'
orde red A mau of great executive ability was
needed at this post to fit out the Port Royal
Expedition, and Capt. Saxt0n was ordered
here. In the purchase Of ships nnd stores, aud
all the varied labors which necessarily deyOved
upon bin as Quartermaster, he showed untir.
ing energy and great skill. 1t ought not to be
to his special praise, though unhappy 1t IL,
that he showed himself as honest rs he is
capable, aod, though he has probably dl'barsed
uore money than any other one man in this
war, no one has ever thought Of breathing me
word Against bis unsu!lied character. So val
liable did he prove himself III bis department.
both here and at Port Royal, that he has not
been permitted to avail himself Of the oppor-,
tuuty OF more active service a. tns head Of
the splendid regiment raised in Massachusetts
BY Gen. Wilson, aid which was reserved for
Capt. SaIton Us long as it was possible TO keep
IL without COMMANDER. But be has fairly

the opportunity IL distinguish Uimself in the

TAgAT1DN- LIQUORS.
Juno.

The House OF Representatives. has decided
that all Distilled Liquors manufactured after
tie LIT OF May neat shall pay moderate tax
for the support of the Government. This is as
il should lie. The whole interest on the public
debt that viii be rolled up at the close OF this
war might be pad by tax Of fifty cents to
one dollar per gallon on liquors, according to
cost and quality, and the country DO ruthcr
richer than poorer for tho mpost.
TIE House further resolved to tax Liquors
which may be on bFpd on the LIST of
May; bat the telegraph informs us that
this tax il 10 bo sigen up. let why
should It BET Every holder viii put up
his price upon the imposition of tho tax
on future dstlation, so that to leave existing
stocks mtaxed is not TO favor tie consumer
but TO enrich few heavy holders of liquors
We insist that this ought not to DO. Impose
a tax one-half to two-.hrds as heavy on
Liquors already distilled as on those to bc dis.
titled hereafter, but make all contribute TO the
discharge of the heavy burden imposed on the
Republic b. slayeholdng treason.
