THE AMTI-rAx MEETING,

Pursuant to announcement meeting
of citizens was held at the Court House
on Saturday evening, and was well at
tended. The unanimous sentiment of the
meeting was against the proposed measure
Of taxation. We say unanimous, because
the only voices raised in defense of the
tax. were those of Mr.. Sankey, who failed
to make himself heard, and ]. E. Vinton,
Esq, who, being an itinerans outsider,
has no voice in the councils of the people
of this Territory. He was awarded by
Mr.. Paul the back seat, which sense Of
modesty should have induced him to oc-
cupy at the outset. The following reso-
lutions were reported by the committee,
and (save the dissenting "No" of Mr..
Sankey) were passed unanimously:
WHEREAS, A bill is reported to have passed
the House of Representatives, and to be now
pending before the United States Senate, impos-
ing tax of 1--WE per cent al valoren upon tho
gross proceeds Of the mines; and
EhereSS, The enactment Of such q law cannot
fail to be highly Injurious II not utterly destruc-
tive to the mining interests Of the Territory
therefore
Resolred, That loyal Nevada, DESTROYS of con-
tributing her every energy TO the support of the
Government, and to crush out this unholy rebel
lion, does in mass meeting declare that the tax
upon the gross proceeds" Of tho mines is an
onerous, unequal and impolitic measure; and
that such q law will have direct and immediate
tendency 10 stop the development Of the mineral
wealth of our Territory, and ruinously decrease
the resources of the General Government.
Rssolred, That while we are willing TO pay an
equitable and reasonable tax on all interests; and
while we recognize the right Of the Government
in self preservation TO call upon US for our last
mar and to demand our last doiiar, yet we hum
bly, represent that a tax By Congress upon the
gross proceeds of our mines, will be destructive
to the general prosperity Of our Territory, espe.
cially Rt this period of the imperfect and limited
Development of our mines.
Resoire6, That these Resolutions be forwarded
by telegraph to Hon. John CONFESS, TO be by him
respectfully submitted to the Senate Of the United
States
The forwarding of the resolutions to
Senator Conness, of California, may be
considered somewhat of "paster " on
Judge Mott, our Territorial Delegate. II,
however, Mott has failed to enter his pro-
test, and such is the supposition, the re-
buke is well deserved. CONFESS has tele-
graphed to San Francisco his opposition
to the measure, and must be considered,
for the present, at least, the only cham
pion upon whom we can rely.

the following resolutions upon the death
of Lieut.sC G.. Newton, 10th vt. regi-

were read and adopted:
WHEREAS, Amid the mournful vicissi-
tudes of human life we are often called
upon to mourn the loss of the beautiful,
the generous and brave, whose lives
have been sacrificed in the defence of
principle and in behalf of common
humanity; and whereas, in such sad ex-
periences it is proper to recognize the
interposition of an all wise Providence,
whose affective dispensations serve to
impress US with sense of our own
Weakness consciousness that earth is
not our home; and whereas, 1t is be-
coming in US to give some suitable ex-
preston Of the high estimate we place
upon those exalted qualities of mind
and heart which made them an Orna-
ment and blessing to mankind while
they lived, and all who knew them sin
cere mourners over their lamented dust
now that they are no more, and also to
extend our sympathy to the friends of
the deceased in the severe affiiction they
are thus called upon to endure, there

G. Billings Of this place, together with
two ladies was returning home from

sandy, and was drawn some distance
by the horse, when he was obliged to
let go the reins, and the horse with the
fore wheels Of the carriage attached, ran
into the village and some distance up
Grove street, when he was knocked down
and badly injured by coming in contact
with post, but afterwards got up and
ran to the livery stable where he be-
longed. Mr.. B. was considerably bruised
and wrenched by his fall. The ladies,
who were not seriously injured, were
