How to Raise the Tax,

The Boston Journal thinks the enforce.
ment of a certain section of the General
Statutes OF that State would furnish its pro.
portion of the United States tax, with a
balance in its favor. The section reads as
follows
SEC. 20: Whoever, having arrived at the age
OF discretion, profanely curses or swears, shall.
on conviction before justice of the peace or
police court, be punished by fine not exceed.
ing hve dollars nor less than one dollar, but
no prosecution shall be commenced after TWEEN.
ty days from the commission of the offense.
Such law in Minnesota, if it was rigid.
ly enforced, we are confident would raise not
only enough money for the war tax, but
would put all our land grant railroads in
running order, and pay the interest on the
$5,OO0,O0O loan.
The weekly pioneer and Democrat. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. Territory) 1855-1865, 1862-02-14
Important from Cairo,

Our dispatches state that on Tuesday
Gen. Grants column landed about six miles
below Fort Henry, and that the gunboats
st. Louis and Essex had drawn the fire of
the Fort, and that battle was expected
yesterday. The force of the enemy was
estimated at $4,000 men.
Fort Henry is situated on the east bank
OF the Tennessee river, near the line of Ken.
lucky and Tennessee, and is said to be q
fertilization of considerable Importance. 1t
stands in the river bottom, about the high
water mark just below bend in the river,
and at the head of straight stretch of
about two miles. 1t therefore commands
the river for that distance down stream, and
very little else. The land around it is a
little higher than the fort, and a portion of
it is covered with heavy timber On the
opposite side of the river are three hills
commanding the fort completely Its arm.
ament consisted, at last accounts, of eight
32~pounders, four 12-pounders, two 6.poun.
ders, three very heavy l24-pounders, and
some rife cannon. The garrison of the
fort was under command of Gen. Lloyd
Tilghman.
By reference to map the reader will see
that the capture of the fort must result in
cutting off Bowling Green from railroad
communication with Memphis as the rail-
road is but short distance from the fort

The Foreign News.

The foreign news is not very important.
Mason and Slidell had arrived and gone to
Paris to await events. The Emperor N a.
poleon, in his speech at the opening of the
French Chambers, spoke of the commercial
interests of France having been compro-
missed by our civil war, but iatimated that
there would be no intervention so long as
the rights of neutrals were respected by our
government. This is good, so far as it
goes, but it leaves loop-hole for interven-
ton, upon almost any pretext-for instance,
the sinking of the stone ships at Charles
ton

The Way tho Thing was Done,

Hardly any man comes to appreciate
what ga devil of fellow" he really is, until
be finds somebody to tell him of it. 1t
would be amusing, were it worth the trou-
BILE, to gather together the various specula-
lions which have been talked and printed
concerning the transfer of the federal adj
vertising from the Press to the PIONEER !;
all agreeing in this, that that .kunnin kuss,"
the EARLE, as A. WARD would phrase it,
worked the most unaccountable "roots"
imaginable in its accomplishment. One
ingenious expositor had it, that we went to
Cambridge, enticed "Bob" out of school,
took him over to Boston, and RECALLED him
on soft crabs and oysters, and even went to
the expense of wetting bis juvenile lips
with old Burgundy which so pleased the
boy that be wrote Immediately to "Ma" to
tell SPA" that if his friend Mr.. G.. wasn't
taken care of, there'd be fuss in the fami
ly ; and that that was the way the thing
was OobC. w I'LL iCSS vi ChCuuiOCutiOu, ou1
with equal plausiblity, the Secretary of
our Minnesota Senate writes to his paper,
the Scott County Journal, the following
account of the matter, received directly
from "a gentleman who recently arrived
