GlEMoE's MARACDERs IN MAEYLAND.-On
last Sunday morning, at 2 O'clock, force
of about forty Rebels was discovered cross
ing from Maryland into Virginia above Ed
ward Ferry, having with them some fifteen
or twenty led horses, and number of head
of cattle. They are supposed to have cross
ed during the night. The Provost Marshal
OF Montgomery county, as soon as Informed
of the matter. made inquiries, from which
he is led to believe that there is a concerted
horse and cattlc-steaing movement into
Maryland by Moseby's aud other guerrilla
bands. The troop was led in this instance
by Harry Glmor, who left note pinned
to the wall of a deserted building, announc-
ing that his present raid was only iorerun-
ner of what was to come.

crowded to the utmost capacity. Forward

ments could not reach him at more fitting

the defensive, nor need we apprehend dan

hurl his columns against our own, yet will
find them strong and firm, and feel his own
legions recoil before them. General Thomas
can now assume the offensive and prevent
Hood from massing force which might Sc
riously embarrass the movements of the in

WINTER.-We have had, the present

WINTER.-We have had, the present
week. a touch of genuine winter. From the
soft, foggy, unwholesome weather of Sun
day and Monday the change was almost
magical. Tuesday was ushcred in with q
shower of feathery crystals from the snow
king S sccptre, succeeded by severe freeze
on Tuesday night. and on Wednesday morn
ing the ponds were sealed and roads, which
the day before were oozing like mortar beds
were hard as adamant.
The season of suffering from cold and
hunger is upon us. While the rich who know
not from experience, the pains of pinchine
want, welcome the season of frost and snow
with anticipations of new pleasures, the poor
look forward with ancxcty to new privations
to be endured. Those who enjoy the com
forts that winter and plenty can bring. should
remember those who are shvering from
the cold blast that whistles round their des
olate homes.
Not a few perhaps whose main dependence
is enduring the tolls and hardships of win
ter campaign, in bearing up the flag of theil
country in face of rebel foe, may feel al
the prvations which winter brings to scant
ly supplied homes. Those should be the
special care of the patriotic and charitable
who are blessed with an abundance of thi:
worlds goods.

Those persons who have not paid their income

in mind that the law makes it imperative on
them to make true return of the same, as is
shown by the following extract from the act Of

at shall be the duty of all persons of lawful
age, and all guardians and trustees, to make
return in the list or scheme rs provided il. this
act, to the proper officer Of Internal Revenue,
Of the amount Of his or her income, and in case
of the neglect or refusal to make such return,
the or assistant assessor shall assess the
amount Of his or her income
The act Of Congress approved june 30. 1864,
makes the same PROFESSIONALISM parties shall
make return to- the assessor or assistant assessor
and under both acts parties who neglect or
refuse" to make return are liable to prosecution
fol attempting to defrsnd the Government.
