A writer signing himself "Caustic" in
one ofthe Wheeling papers gets of some
pretty sharp sayings about the neglect on
the part of the citizens ofWheeling to give
the Regiment reception on their arrival
at that place. We thought at the time that
"Caustic" was alittle unreasonable and un-
necessarily sharp set on the people of that
good city, who, whatever else may be said
to their discredit, have generally managed
to deserve fair reputation for hospitality
and liberality in such matters; and accot.
dinghy another scribe calling himself anti
caustic, replies and explains very satisfac-
torily the reason of the apparent neglect.
A demonstration in honor of this gallant
regiment is in progress of preparation that
it is said will remove all cause for lima
tured reflection and once more put the
parties on. an nffsciopate footing. The
regiment, we learn, has been granted a
furlough, or leave of absence of ls days
and the members dismissed to their res
pectiye homes with instructions for each
man to act as recruiting sergeant on his
own hook. tits also said that the paroled
prisoners belonging to it have been ex-
changed, which will add about 100 to its

The Ta1 BIN.

The Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Press, (Forney), says OF the
operations of the Tax Bill:
Enough is known to enable careful oh.
servers tostate that the tax bill, judging
from the reports already received at the
Treasury, will produce an almost incacula-
BILE revenue revenue sufficient to pay the
interest on the public debt itself aud to
leave large margin for the necessary ex-
penses of the Government as long as the
war continues. One very competent au-
thority states that the income derivable
from the tax system will exceed by at least
fifty per cent. the amount contemplated by
sauguine trainers OF rhe bill.

We have heard Of the associate before.
We know something about him, perhaps
more than he or the editor would care to
have known. wekuow that he was lately
a clerk 10 the Indian Bureau at Washing
ton, under Commissioner Dole, at a salary
oftwelye hundred dollars year, and We
know that Mr.. Dole said that he discharged
him after satisfactory proof of his disloy-

We know still further that a few<weeks
ago he was brought ont here by John s.

at harrisburg, for R. s. Nothcott, the loyal
East Tennessean who had refused to be-
come Carlilite, and that through some
after arrangement he was put at work 90

The less said about the associate and his

of trade generally it says:
"The reverse in trade aud the disruption

We have peace, and that appears to be
more remote than ever. In the meantime,
what little trade we had to talk of is dwin-
