Amendments of the Tax Bill

Since the passage of the tax bill, the
Following amendments have been suo-
gesied as appropriate, by a correspon-
dent. who hopes that Congress will 70.
consider the bill, and add his amend.
ments. He says:
Since the report of the tax bill was
published, several new amendments
have been proposed MS follows
For kissing a pretty girl sl.OO. For
kissing a homely one, $500, the extra
amount being added, probably as pun.
lstment for the mans folly.
For Indies kissing each other, SO
the tax is placed at this rate in order to
nreak up the custom altogether. it be.
ing regarded by our NJ. G. as a piece of
inexcusable absurdity.
For every Irritation, 10 cts.
Every young man who has more than
one "gal" taxed So.
For counting in the kitchen, 25
cents.
For courtiug in the sitting room so
cents.
For courting in the parlor, 81.
For counting in romantic place.
Sl.OO and so cents for each ofFeucs
thereafter.
Seeing a lady home from church, 25
cts. for each offence.
Seeing n lady home from church so.
eety, D cents--the proceeds to be an.
propriated to the relief of disabled ar.
my chaplains.
For lady who paints, so cts.
For wearing low-necked dresses, 81.
For each curl on lady's head, above
ten, cts.
For every unfair device for entrap.
ping yonng men into the sin of matri.
mony, IS.
For wearing hoops larger than ten
feet in circumference, cents for each
hoop.
Old bach's over thirty $40.
Over forty, $50.
Over fifty, $50, and sentenced to

Each young lady is to be taxed from
% cents to S25-she is to fix the esti-
mate on her own beauty. 1t is thought
very large amount will be realized
from this provision.
Each boy baby is to be taxed fifty
cents, Each girl baby, ten ccnts.--
Families having more than eight ba-
bles not to be taxed. -

Sons of Temperance Quarterly
Council.
Pursuant to adjournment, the tenth
Quarterly Council of the Sons of TEN.
perance of Southern Ohio held its ses-
sions at the Temperance Hall in Sabina,
Clinton county, commencing at 2 clock
P. NJ, Thursday, June 5, 1862.
The afternoon was chiefly employed
In the election of officers and effecting a
permanent organization. The officers
elected were: Presidcnt-Wm. S. Tul-
leys, one Vice President from each of
the eight Divisions represented, on
the report of the Committee on Credep-
tials, viz:-Sabina-Jacob Sair; Balm
bridge-A. II. Ulen; Londonderry
j. B. Dixon; Moffat-S. w. McLelland:
Russel's Station-J. W. B. Ayres; Mar.

Il. Nester; Leesburg--J. S. Templip,
Secretaries--S. V. Walker and T. K
Perdue; F. Sccrotary-Bro. Vanderyert:
Treasurer-H. Hester.
The Vice Presidents reports at the
evening session, on the state of the or
der in their respective Divisions, were
very favorable, showing that under the
great embarrassment of our beloved
country the good old Ship of Temper
anco is not lost sight Of but on the
contrary is moving steadily and proudly
to the rescue of our land from
the ravages and evils of intemper-
ance.
The principal business of the morn.
ing session, June 6, was the propaga-
ton of principles to promote our we'll
begun work. The following are some
of the resolutions that were passed:
Be it Resolved, by this Quarterly
Council Of the Sons Of Temperance for
Southern Ohio, That we are fully alive
to the importance of the great work
which we have undertaken to accom- |
plish' and that we fully appreciate the
labors of Bro, Moffat in aiding to Grad
icate the evil ofiutemporance from our
land.
ResolUed, That we will as Divisions
do al in our power to get up as large
meetings as possible, and that we will
use our best means to raise money suf-
hclent to justly compensate Bro. Moifat
for his expense, time and talent, EN-
ployed in lecturing to these meetings
