The Tax on Transaetions in cod.

The following appears to be the shape Of
the Stamp Tax on all transactions in Gold
over three days, and upon all loans upon
Gold and Bullion, adopted by both Houses
Of Congress as part Of the Internal Reve-
nue. Law. Tho bill has been approved by
the President:
"ThGt all contracts for the purchase or
sale of gold and silver coin or bullion, Sc
cured by pledge or deposit, or other dispo-
sition Of gold and silver coin of the United
States, if to be performed after a period
exceeding three days, shall be in writing
or printed, and signed by the parties or
their agents or attorneys, and shall have
one or more adhesive stamps, as provided
in the act to which this is an amendment,
equal in amount to the one-half Of one per
centum, and interest at the rate Of six per
centum per annum on the amount so loan
ed, pledged or deposited and if any such
loan, pledge or deposit made for a period
net exceeding three days, shall be re-
newed or in any way extended, for any
time whatever, said loan, pledge or deposit
shall be subject to the duty imposed on
losns exceeding three days; and no loan
Of currency or money on the security of
gold or silver coin Of the United States as
aforesaid, shall be made exceeding in
amount the par value of the coin pledged
or deposited as security; and any loan so
made, or attempted to be made, shall be
utterly void"
The stamp on gold contracts and loans
upon gold, which are not permitted to ex-
ceed the par value Of the gold, is thus made
to amount, say on q thirty day contract or
loan, to one per cent, that is, the general
tax, to begin with, is half per cent, and,
in addition to this, the interest on the con-
tract or lean, to the extent of six per cent.
per annum, also goes to the Government,
making half per cent. more for 80 days. a
contract OF. loan for 60 days will require
stamps equal to one and half per cent
This law applies equally to Banks, Brok-
ers and private money-lenders, and il
goes into effect from its official publication
at Washington, which we presume will be
to-day-N T. Times.

ATLANTIC & GREAT WESTERN RAILRoAD.-
T. ". Kennard, Esq, Superintendent, and
NJ. Kent, Esq, President, of the Ohio Divi-
sion of the Atlantic and Great Western Rail-
road, arrived on Saturday at Franklin Mills,
in one of the COmpany's new palace cars,
having left Jersey City the previous day.
Thus does this great work stretch westward
from day to day, and within a fortnight, We
understand that trains can leave Akron di-
rect for New York. On the arrival Of the
train at franklin, grand reception of the
President, superintendent, and Board of Di-
rectors took place, with Ball and Supper
at the Franklin House. Trains will soon be
running with regularity through tho entire
finished portion of the road. This improve
ment will have an important bearing upon the
interests of Cleveland, for it opens some of
the richest coal and iron fields in Western
Pennsylvania and Ohio, and here will be the
depot of this trade. Some six blast furnaces
in the neighborhood of Sharon, Pennsylvania,
which have heretofore depended upon Erie
for their Lake Superior ore, will in a short
time look to Cleveland for their supplies. OF
this VIC shall speak more at length before
long. We know Of no city in tho West that
will be more benefited by the Atlantic and
Great Western Railroad than Cleveland, and
the peculiar advantages we shall take the
pains to point out at an early day.

FROM WASHINGTON.

Special to Tribune states that the spirits
Of the army grow better and better. Its
health is excellent.
The new regiments which contained the
greatest percentage Of sickness were rap
idly improving.
The weather to-day is superb and the
roads are rapidly improving. Every
thing looks cheering.
General Orders No. 20, promulgated
to-day, contain the names of I20 officers
absent without leave, and who are ordered
to report within Is days or be dismissed

The Nassau correspondent of the Herald
states under date Of FEBRUARY 28th, that the
rebel schooner Retribution arrived there
the night of the 25th inst.
Her officers met at the Royal Victoria
Hotel in the evening discussing loudly

three fast steamers entered this port
within an hour of each other, viz: No. /,
The Georgisna, brig rugged, iron propell-
er. No. 2, Brittania Goddess of Neutrali-
ty, side wheel, iron, brig rigged and very
fast. No. 8, iron screw steamer Gertrude,
| brig rugged, also very fast. ir
This fine feet Of steamers will prove
valuable addition to the rebel piratical
feet, and unless we can send Baltic or
Vanderbilt on their track, their capture
will be next to impossible.

TIE FREMONT BURGLARY-ARRE5T OF ONE
OF THE BtRGLARs.-On the morning of Jan.
I'd the house of Mr. Keeler, editor of the Ere
mont Journal, was entered, and about Sl7O
in money and other articles, mostly money,
was taken. We published the details of the
affair at the time. Nothing was ascertained
with regard to who the burglars were until
during the past week. Frisbee Washington,
who was convicted of burglary and
larceny at the present term of the
Court of Common Pleas and sent to the
Penitentiary for seven years, confessed to
Sheriff Lewis, at Columbus, that he and an
other named Gordy were the men who broke
into Mr.. Keeler's hOuss. On the Sherif's
return from Columbus he arrested Gordy on
suspicion, and notified tho Sheriff of San
dusky county.
FrisbOn Washington's story to the Sheriff
was as follows: After committing the bur
gary the two left Fremont for Adrian, Mich
igan, where they sold a silver watch, (stolen
from Mr.. KeelOr,) to a saloon keeper, for 81.
Upon this information Mr.. Keeler proceed
ed to Adrian for the purpose ofobtaining the
watch, which would be important evidence
on which to convict the burglar GOrdy. He
found that the lOOn-keeper had traded the
watch with farmer for COW; the farmer
had swapped with one of his neishbors for
another watch that watch was traded off for
a rifle. In the hands of the third party Mr.
Keeler found his watch, identified and got
possession of it.
Mr.. Keeler arrived from Adrian this morn
/ ing, and will return to Fremont this after
noon with GOrdy in his custody, who will be
tried in the Court of Common Pleas of San
dusky coanty, and doubtless get his deserts.

IRON Last EVENINGS EditIOn.l


i" BLOOD, IAGo, BLOOD l'-Intense excite
ment was .oecasiOned in reportorial circles
this morning by the discovery of small
| pool of coagulate blood near one of the old
tenements on Union Lane. It looked like
human gore, and those who gazed upon it
shuddered with instructive horror as their
imaginations pictured some scene of violence
and murder that might have occurred there
\ in the darkness and silence of the previous
night. Some stopped and looked upon it,
turned little pale, shuddered and passed
on others fingered there as by the force of
horrible fascination, their eyes rivetted
upen the sanguinary spot, unable, apparent
ly, to withdraw. Soon the reporters came
snufing blood from afar. With eager haste
they pushed their way through the crowd
that surrounded the pool of blood, and be-
gan an examination of it. They trembled,
but it was with joy (hardened wretches y at
the prospect of a sensation item. Their eyes
were riYetted upon the fatal spot, but the
light of calculation and professional investi-
cation shone from them, not the CLEAN Of
fascinated horror. Then came a policeman,
cool amid the excitement, and whistling a
stave to show that he is accustomed to this
sort of thing, and is not to be agitated by
such trIles as a midnight murder.
The policeman and reporters took steps
(men generally do when they walk to ascer-
tain from whence the eblood came. By close
investigation Of the ground in the vicinity,
they were able to detect drops of blood lead
ing down the street towards the river. They
followed the traces thus found, attended by
a very mixed crowd Of persons who had con-
gregated, and who were excited to high
pitch of curiosity. The reporters had their
notebooks out and wrote unintelligible hi
eroglypbics in them at short intervals. They
couldn't write a good hand, their hands
Chat is, their ,0rite hands, trembled sOIwith
excitement and expectation. Sometimes they
would lose track of the blood, when the re-
pOrters would tear out great handfulls of hair
and rave frightfully. When they found it
again they would give way to the widest
transports, with several gunboats and pom
toons thrown I'M and embrace the policeman
rapturously. Down the railroad track they
went, along the track to an alley, up the al
ley, down a pair of cellar steps, up again,
into hall, up pair of stairs, down again,
aerossa street, up another pair of stairs, down
again, over fence, up sand bank, down to
the dock, under the dock, over canal boat,
through a tug, onto the street again to a
butcher shop, from whence, it was ascer-
tanned, thieving dog had stolen dripping
beefs heart. The mystery was solved, and
the reporters prOpOrtiOnally disgusted.

A few years ago considerable interest
HGs felt IN Pneumatic Railway that
was laid down in London for trial. The
project was to transmit cars Of goods and
psfpls from one station to another simply
By atmospheric pressure, over 3 railway
laid cylindrical air-tight tube. The idea,
II carried cut, would be the next thing to
fulfilling the prophecy Of the genius who
said hat in the year 1900 We should be
fired from place to place from q gigantic
eannoH. The Pneumatic Dispatch Com
pany, however, Of London, is already in
successful operation, upon the same prin-
cipie as the proposed pneumatic railway.
An alright tube is laid under ground,
through which runs q miniature railway
track Upon this rolls car which con
veys the parcels. The motive power is sim
ply air forced into the tube behind the car
with about the pressure Of a hurricane
The result is that the car is propelled at
shout the rate Of 80 miles per hour. The
cost Of Eve miles is estimated at el9l, 900,
and It is proposed to carry the mails as
well as freight through London at the
cheap rate Of a penny q ton per mile.
