THE NEWS.

There is no war news Of interest. Ther'
are rumors of all kinds from the Army of thu
Potomac, but nothing reliable. Correspon
dence with the army has been prohibited fol
the present. Our forces are represented TO bt
in fine condition, and movement and collision
is not improbable at any tine
The reports from the rebel army under Lee
are quite as numerous and conflicting as from
our own, but all that is certainly known j.
the fact that they are rapidly concentrating q
large force and preparing for desperate re
sistance to our advance.
Our forces have evacuated Washington, n
c., and the only prominent point We now hold
in, that State is NewberD. The troops that
have been withdrawn are probably sent to
Virginia -'A5s
There is but little additional intelligence
from the Gulf Department, Gen. Banks in
official dispatches to the War Department ad-
mits surprise and reverse, on the 9Th ult..
but claims that on the 9th and Ieth the rebels
were terribly whipped, sustaining greater
loss in killed and wounded in proportion to
the numbers engaged than in any other battle
during the war. In consequence of rapid
fall of water in the Red River, our forces and
feet had fallen back to Alexandria. :,.
-1 A late expedition sent up the Washita riv-
er captured and brought away 5000 bales of
cotton and 500 negroes, and destroyed large
amount Of rebel property.
!. The forces under Gen. Steele have captured
and now occupy Camden, in southwestern Ar
kansas, strongly fortified position
There is nothing important from the Army
of the Cumberland, or from any point on the
Southern coast
Some men connected with the Army of the
Potomac under the plea that their term of
enlistment has expired, having become some
what mutinous and threatened to refuse TO do
duty, Gen. Meade has issued an order re-
quiring Corps and other commanders to meet
all such cases if they occur by shooting the
offenders without the formality of a trial.
Gov. BRoUGH has issued a proclamation
thanking the National Guard of the State for
the cheerfulness and alacrity with which they
responded to the late call to the field. There
are now 5000 of the Guard at Camp Denni-
son awaiting marching orders.

The Auditor of State has issued Circular
addressed TO County Auditors, in relation tc
the liability of the recently organized Nation
al Banks to pay State and local taxes upon
their capital stock. consisting of q. $. Bonds
which by the law of Congress creating them
are exemp; from such taxes. The Auditor
decides that while such institutions within our
State cannot be taxed "as corporations" the
State has right TO tax her citizens on the
stocks held by them in such banks, and that
they are required by the general tax law 10
return such stocks among their assets for tax
alton. After referring to the mode Of taxing
State Banks, the Auditor remarks as follows
in regard to taxing the stocks invested in Ma
tional Banks:
"a still graver and more important question
has arisen as to the power of the State 10 tax
the Banks organized under The National Bank
ing law. Fortunately, the Supreme Court OF
the United States has also settled the princi-
pies which govern the determination OF this
question. They have decided that the Gov.
6f0Ule0L OF the OOlteu SlatSS nave l06 cOOSll-
tutionaI right to charter Banks and that the
exercise of this right is an oct Of sovereignty,
and necessarily excludes all interference by any
authority within the jurisdiction of the United
States. That State cannot tax such an in
stitution, because if It's right so to do exist it
is unlimited, and it may so exercise it as to de-
stroy the Bank, and supersede the legitimate
powers of the general Government. We can
not, therefore, tax the National Banks as cor
porations but, the Supreme Court also holds,
that State may tax its own citizens upon the
stocks held by them in National Banks, and
our statute requires such stocks to be listed
for taxation. Each holder of stock in such
Bank. who resides in Ohio, is therefore re-
quired to list the same for taxation, at its
value in money, the same as other stocks held
in Banks, corporations or associations, which
are not required by law TO list their capt. al
and property for taxation. This valuation
will be included 10, and made part of the l4th
item OF the return TO the assessor

pose of appointing delegates to the State

The Comnittee did not deem it advisable at
this busy season of the year to call upon the
people to meet in the townships to select del
egates, and indeed delegate conventions for the
purpose of selecting representatives to State
Conventions have not been customary in our
county. All true Union men are invited,
and it is to be hoped that every section Of
the county will be fully represented.
