In New Hampshire they used to choose all their
State county ard town officers, from governor down
hog reevts, at one town meeting, the annual March
meeting. AS the town officers were very numerous it
was customary, fast as they chosen, to walk
them up before justice of the peace and have them
sworn into office, 'by companies, halt companies, pair
and single" esquire Chase" of Cornish Gather Of
Governor Chase, of Ohio) being the most prominent
justice, had bis task to perform and task it
was occupying much OF bis time from morning till
night.
1t was on one of these occasions after the abors ard
toll OF the day he returned to bis home weary
and with the fatigues of his employment and
throwing himself in his easy chair, he fell into sound
sleep. Ia the N an4E3e couple who had been wait
ing patiently for tnie for the justice to join them
in wedoc presented themselves 10 another part of the
house and made known their interesting desire to Mrs.
Chase, who, somewhat confused and agitated attended
them 10 the sleeping justice, whom she found it difficult
to Sinking him by the shoulder, she called out
|" Mr.. Chase, Mr. Chase, do pray wake up here is

ministered oahs all day, dreaming of nothing else
halfwaked rubbing bis yes and looking at the wstfu
pair, asked:

They nodded assent

A SEAsokABLE FALL.-SaIt has declined wonderful
ly in Charleston to the great disappointment of the
spectators in the necessity. a letter dated the 9th
published in the Mobile Ne,cs says
A mouth ego Liverpool salt brought in this market
$2IO per sack three days ago. at of the large
sales which had assembled bidders from every portion
of the Conederacy, large lot of Liverpool salt was
put up. With difficulty the auctioneer obtained
single bid of SO per sack. The bidder, finding him.
self the only bidder, contented himself with taking FIVE
Sacks the minimum quantity allowed By the term OF sale
The remainder of the salt then went off, in small quaint
ties the successive and constantly decreasing bids OF
$65, $6O $780, and finally less than forty dollars per
sack l need not add that this amazing fall woke up
good many who have been dabbng, shrewdlg, as they
supposed in the reacherous and uncertain merchandise
The true Of the decline is of to be found in
the extensive and successful operations of the salt

AN E1HuMED CITY.-A most singular discovery

the Garonne. A town has been discovered, buried in
the sand and church has already been extracted from

towards the close Of the Roman Empire, but charges
made in it had given it the appearance Of edifce of
mixed style, in which the Gothic architecture has
usurped the place of the Roman. It's original paint
ings, its admirable sculptured choir, and Roman
capitals, are adorned with profuse ornaments,
which attracting numbers of visitors. This
temple is all that remains of those cities described
by Pny and Strabo. The Gulf of Gascony aboueds
in ruins of these ancient cities 1t has bean 1900 years
since Novigamus, the old capital of Medoc, which
celestial city when the Romans were masters of Gau
was buried under the Of all that tract Of terri

mains of Roman roads, the site of Jupters temple the
vesges Of the Spanish Moors and the road Eenore de
Guyerne have baen rescued from the sands in the neigh
borhood of the long buried city of Souas. Nowhere
have the ravages of the been greater than on the
coast of Cascony.

Inequality of Taxation.


We desire to direct public attention to matter
the importance of which all must feel and to point out
manifest inequality which we think all fairminded
men will recognise and which ali just men will be will
ing to see rectifed 1t is this =
The war has greatly modified the relative values o.
property located in different sections OF this State as
no doubt it has done in other States Real estate IN
most of our seaboard towns and cities has measurab
ceased to be of revenue where the enemy
has not been able to extend his power while on the
other hand the ccmmonest houses in any interior
town or village will command yearly rents nearly equa
to the whole amount for which, before the war, they
could have been purchased right out from chimney op
to foundation stoLe.
To illustrate this we will take Wilmington as an
instance
Early last year the fear of attack had driven a
large number Of families out Of town, and the depopua-
ton was completed by the fear of the epidemic which
ragged in the Fall By the time that the fever had be-
come fixed fact very few families left that could
get away. When the epidemic subsidized, the command
ing General issued an address deprecaing the immediate
return Of families to town. Several families however
did reur0 but even these have been driven Oft by the
imnrercy of an attack as Set !orth 10 nera Whit
ing's address Of the l4th Instant.
ne result of this state of thin is that real estate
here hardly be sid to have any real rentabe value,
Tor the time being and its owners instead of deriving
revenue from it will be compelled to pay heavy taxes
Of pockets already we'll drained by the expenses in
CURED in carrying their families to points of supposed
security, for which Supposed security they compelled
to pay in rents that exceed anything known here
in the fushest of flush times
Now we would respectfully ask whether, a matter
OF simple justice, something ought not to be done for
the relief of the real estate in places crcam
stanced as WILMINGTON is? Whether some provision
ought not be made assmilating taxation to the pre-
sent ability to pay rather than exacting it in accord
ance with an assessment made under different circum-
and herring earthly relation to the present po
stion Of affairs We would not appeal to the Legisla
ture for this act Of favour OF relief otherwise
than in the technical meaning of the word relief"
We have thus briefly alluded to this matter, mainly
with the view Of bringing it to the attention of the public
and especially of the Mayor and Commissioners of this
town and the proper authorities in other communities
similarly situated in order that prompt action may be
had. Our Mayor S clear-headed business man. and
Commissioners must all be Of the truth Of the
We have made and their Importance to
people. The Legislature will not probably remain very
ong in session, that if anything is to be done, it
ought to be done at once.
