Forrest attacked Fort Pillow on last
Tuesday morning--after formal demand
for its surrender and threat that no quar-
ter should be shown if he was compelled
to take it. The Fort was commanded by
Major Booth, Of the Thirteenth Tennessee
Cavalry, and his lorce consisted of four
hundred men of that regiment and two
hundred negroes. Major Booth was kill
ed and the Fort taken, after which it is
said the butehery OF whites and negroes
was indiscriminately commenced and car
ried on until but two hundred of the six
hundred remained. Forrest, it is thought,
will evacuate the Fort and march upon
Memphis. ti.I
Paducah is full of rebels again, and it
is reported that demand has again been
made for the surrender of the Fort.
The draft has been postponed until the
first of June.

%If a man should say that rather
than lose his liberty he would sacrifice
his life,wOuld it be equivalent to saying he
desired to lose his lief Certainly not.
1t would only be illustrating his love of
liberty, and the estimation in which he
held it. .-.
How is it, then, that Hon. Alexander
Long-who said he would rather consent
to a division Of the States than to war
of determination upon the people of the
South--how is it, we say, that he is CEN

he was in favor of dividing the States and
Of recognizing the COnfederacy. he
simply illustrated his abhorrencs of war
Of extsrmination.

The Fort Pillow Massacre.

WASHINGTON. May 2.-Thc Sub Committee
on the Conduct Of the War, Senator Wade
and Representative Gooch, have returned
from Fort Pillow. They took fifty seven
dispositions, all of which more than confirm
the newspaper accounts Of the massacre.
They say that it would be impossible tc
exaggQratc the cruelties committed.
Among the witnesses who were exam.
ined is the negro who was buried alive, and
who ding himself out of his own grave
There is no doubt of the fact that one OF
more persons were nailed through theil
flesh to pices of wood and then burnt live
Not only on the day Of the surrender were
such fendish acts perpetraed but on the
next day in cold blood. The victims seen
by the committee were, some of them
pierced and cut in theface and eyes with
bayoncts and swords, while other parts Of
their bodies were manned and disfgured
either by steel or lead

PAY OF THE ColoRED TRooPs.-A bill wa.
passed in Congress, on Saturday, making
the pay, rations and emoluments OF the col
ored soldiers equal to those of the white
soldiers. This is an act of simple justice
and will, no doubt, prove Of great benefit
to the nation in its present struggle The
policy of employing colored troops is now
admitted on all hands, with but few excep
tons to be wise and proper, and while the
same service is required Of them in the
field that the white soldiers perform, there
should be no distinction or difference as to
the pay received. The law just passed will
stimulate enlistments among that class, anc
encourage those,,already in the service to EN-
ulate the gallant deeds of the white soldiers
The same pay and similar treatment in Other
military respects will make them feel the
same interest in the cause which animates
the white soldiers.

We call attention to the great speech
of Winter Davis on the first page ofthis issue.
Although upon subject, which in the hands
of most men would have been treated as a
mere dry legal question, Mr.. Davis clothes
it with the genius of his wonderful oratory,
and speaks words of glowing patriotism which
thrill the heart and nerve the arm of every
lover of the Union. Ten thousand copies
of that speech circulated in the army of the
Potomac, and read upon the eve of battle,
as the heroes gather around their camp fires,
would inspire such an enthusiasm as would
carry the banner of the Republic in triumph
over all the hosts of the rebellion,

LOCAL AFFAIRS.


> INTERNAL REVENUE TIE following
lis the Anhhal Assessment for the year 1885,
The assessment of licenses embraces but 8
months, from September 1888, to May, 1864.
The carriage and siver-plate assessments are
for the year 1863, and the Income assess
ment for 1862.
Class A embraces all ad valorunf assess
ments, among which are the Incomes. All
incomes under $4,000 were taxed per
cent, and all over that amount per cent
States are taxed only at the rate of u per
cent.
The tax derived from Incomes In Cecil
on which 8 per cent was paid for the year
1862, was 1882 "A from s per cent in
comes, $2,659. 20; and from United States
Bonds, on which II per cent was paid $4.9l:
making total from Incomes of $6,556. So.
The amount received from licenses of various
kinds was S3,244.s9; and from Carriages,
taxed one dollar each, S222.OO; from two,
horse carriages, which are taxed two dollars
each, $l0S.O0; on those valued at $500, and
taxed five dollars each, $40; making a total
for carriages in the county of $4l244. The
whole amount of revenue from the annual
assessment for 1868, which embraces the
Incomes of 1862, is SlO,2l3.ss.
The annual assessment from 1884, which
is now being made, will be much larger than
the past years.
The amount of tax paid by Cecil county
to the U. S. government for the month of
March was 81 ,53s.97 the principal part of
which is derived from manufactures. The
tax from the manufacture of paper alone, for
the month of March, was $681.42 from
sheet iron S6l6.53 and from foundry pro.
ducts, composed principally of plow irons,
S4l.Ss; from butchering, $11.76. The
balance was derived from miscellaneous art-
cles Of manufacture, and fractional licenses
The First Collection District of this State is
composed of the eight Eastern Shore coun.
ties, and Cecil pays more tax into the U. s..
Treasury, under the Internal Revenue Laws,
than the other seven counties combined
The monthly collection of taxes from several
of the counties doesn't amount to the salary
paid to the Assistant Assessors of those
counties. Such districts arc losing bust.
ness to the government. Where the monthly
tax OF district is below the salary of the
Assistant Assessor, we think the government
would consult its own interest by abolishing
the office monthly, and only making an
annual assessment in such districts, at which
time the monthly taxes could almost all be
gathered up.

and the Union boys appropriated his types
and press to better purpose than its former
proprietor had done. The Union says:

to see the citizens coming in every direction,
claiming protection from the merciless Rebel

tears in his eyes, that he had two sons
tied and by force carried away from him.
One of his neighbors even more unfortunate
had a son shot in his door yard for resisting

No wonder then the Rebel papers cody
publish such items as this:
