THE CONFEDERATE TAX BILL.

In the tar bill enacted by the Confede.
rate States Congress there is clause plac-
Ing tax upon all interest bearing bonds. z
We learn that, according to the construction
OF the law given by Secretary Memminger,
the taxpayer will not be permitted to de.
puct his liabilities from The amount Of mo-
ney due him, although he may be, in fact,
in errears.
Thus, il his liabilities amount 10 500,
600, and he holds +" interest bearing bonds"
to the amount Of $4,000, he has to pay
tax upon the $4,000, when, in reality, he
is worth nothing. Again, A has purchased
farm at forty thousand dollars, and sold
his own for thirty thousand. He is in pos
session Of the forty thousand dollar farm,
and has 70 pay land tar thereon at the
same time he holds the bonds "interesl
bearing" for the thirty thousand dollar farm
because the " stay law" prevents their exc.
cution. lie is, therefore, required TO pay
tar upon the thirty thousand dollars. and al.
SO upon the forty thousand dollar farm
Thus paying tax upon seventy thousand
dollars, when in reality he holds only forty
thousand dollars worth Of property. Iii,
bonds are fastened upon him, and he canno
collect them. Again, B holds As bonds fol
the forty thousand dollar farm b must
therefore, paw a tax upon these bonds
Therefore, The land purchased by A from
Is paying double tax 50 is the land SOLD
BY A to C.; for A pays tar on C's bonds
for thirty thousand dollars, and c pays OF
the land in kind. Such law, or the con
struction Of il, 10 certainly wanting in uni
formity and justice. Richmond Ersninss

FEDERAL vILLAINY IN MISSOURI. We hare
heard from an authentic source OF an act re-
Gently committed by the Hessians in Missouri,
which stands without q parallel in the annals
Of civilized warfare. Two young ladies' of
that State. returning from visit to neigh
Dor, found that during their absence some
Federal troops had encamped on the planta-
ton. and near the dwelling house. They
had to pass these troops to get to the house.
They we're called upon to halt. but being
frightened by the appearance Of men, and
apprehensiye Of rude treatment, they hurried
to the house. The Federal soldiers deibe-
rately fired volley at them, killing one Of
them instantly!
The young lady killed was sister Of the
wife Of Gov. Jackson's brother.

defeat of the enemy. All commanders
and disbursing officers in this Department
will be required to give their closest atten-

sary and in conformity to law. A rigid
scrutiny will be made by the Commanding
General aud the Chiefs of his staff, and
abuses will be promptly exposed and check
ed.
In the location of troops, commanders and
quartermasters will consult economy and eff
fciensy. The vicinity of cities and towns
will be avoided, as far as possible, in order
to secure health, and escape the demoraliz-
ing effects Of dissipation. Rents will not be
paid. unless il is absolutely necessary. Flu
.el will be supplied, as far as practicable, by
the labor Of the troops, encampments being
selected with this view. And works of de-
fence, and huts for the winter, will be built
by the labor of soldiers-officers being re-
quired, in all instances, 70 remain with, and

Shielding a D0eling in the Dead Of Night--
"A Family DriUen in The Snov.--About two
o'clock on Thursday morning last, says the
Fredericksburg Herald, two Lincoln steam
ers ran close into "Chatterton," the family
residence of Col. John Tayloe on the Poto-
mac. and fired from 80 to 40 shot and she'll
at the house, seemingly bent on its desiruc-
ton.
Col. T. was from home, in command oil his
cavalry troop. which fact was doubtless we'll
known to the vile miscreants. The house
was occupied at the time exclusively by non
combatants, women and children-Mrs. Tay-
loe. her children and few lady friends on
visit. AS soon as possible they escaped
some in their night clothes. and some bare
looted, and were thus forced to subject them
selves tor hours. during the rigors Of a win
try night, to all the cold and inclemency OF
the season.
