TAXATION! TAXATIoY.-OurC County Com
having agreed to pay a boun-
ty Of $500 per man to fill the quota Of this
county under the late calls for 100000
and 200, 900 men, the aggregate amount OF
the county bonds sold for this purpose will
exceed one hundred and fifty thousand,
and may reach two hundred thousand dol
lars.
Our readers are aware that We, on for
mer occasion, expressed our disapproba-
yiOn &C THO act oe the guordieoa or oe"
county. We believed then, and still be-
lievc, that it was wrong But since the a
doption of this policy we rejoice that our
Commissioners have resolved that this
dobt, thus incurred, shall not be entailed
upon generations yet to come but it shall
I've pad ty those tlr Drioss JencH it was
incurred. For this purpose they have or
dered an assessment of 5 per cent on the
present valuation Of the taxable property
for county purposes, This, it is estima-
ted, will yield about fifty thousand dol
lars or one fourth the whole amount il
the sum total shall not exceed 5000 600
This, addcG to our present taxes, viii
reach, in some localities perhaps ten pei
cent on the assessed yaluation Of course
no people can long endure such turthens
Many will find great difficulty in meeting
such a demand at this time. But lher,
seems to DO no help for it. No honest
man will desire to transmit this debt as
/ legacy to his children. Add they must
realize that these are war times. Demo
Gratis must stand up to il like brave men
They justly think that the Abolitiouists-
having brought on the war, having spurn
ed all efforts at Compromise--hy ough
to do the fighting But this they refus
to do. II they can escape the battlefield
they can not escape the tax collector, an,
perhaps by the time those bounty bond
are paid some Of them at least will begir
to realize that we have war that there i
something wrong" aud that "somebod,
