Aa incident connected with the DAhlgren
affsir which ought to 90 into print is this ;
The party who first confronted DahlgTen was
Baptist minister, bis son, boy Of l3, and three
Others. Dahlgren called on them to surrendeT'
and snsppsd his pistol three times ct them.
They fred and killed Dahlgren and five horsss'
most of the shots being aimed too low. vol

the Yankee ranks, and they retired in body
into an sdjoiniDg field, where they were closely
watched By our men anti day dswned, when

Thompson Allan, Esq, Commissioner Of Texas:
sIR-Yous rois Of 25.h instant is received. /
concur In the construction you have given to
the Tax On coin, geld dust and bullion. There
sTe two ether TsssOD5 Of considerable weight 10
be added to those which you have given. The
hIst is that he 24.h section OF ths &c Assessment
Act requires thst every article CT object sab
jet TO taxation shall be estimated ss its value in
ConteleIEte notes. Under this clause the
smsunt Of tax TO be paid in ConfedeIsse notes
would be the exact equivalent of a tax in kind,
and consequently no injury would result to the
tax payer from the construction proposed. Il
is Obvious thst Congress would prefer tax on
the amount Of cola 70 IN asses sment which
would msssRre Tie difference in market value
begweens cuin and Treasury notes.
The second reason 70 which would refer is
the TACT that sterling exchange is taxed a. its
vHiue Ri bone in Confederate notes Coin and
sterling exchange be6T such relation to each
other as 90 suggest the same relation in respect
to ts1es. II the word "smeunt" used BY the
/ tax LcI in relation TO coin should be construed
| to apply oaly 10 The nominal ysl1s Of coin, ihe
! difference between The lax on coin and sterling
/ exchange would be equal TO the whole premium

| create so great en- inequality ss to Iced TO the
conclusion that it could not have been intended.
