SALT COMPANIES TO ZEE TAxED.-The
law under which the Salt Manufac-
turing Companies in this Valley were
mainly organized and by which they
were only required to pay a specific
tax of one per cent has been so
amended by the present legislature
as TO render them liable for taxes on
real estate and personal property the
same as other parties. After the en-
acting section follows this, the amend
cd section, in lieu of old section 2:
SEC. 2. "All corporations formed
under the provisions of this act for
manufacturing purposes shall be liaDi1
to be assessed for oil real and per-
sonal estate held by them in this State
at its true value and shall pay thereon
a tax for Township, City, County and
State purposes, the same as other real
and personal estate, and such taxes
shall be assessed, collected, and paid
in the same manner as other taxes
on real and personal estate, are re-
quired to be assessed, collected and
paid, Provided nothing herein con-
tanned shall authorize the taxing of
the capital stock of such corporations
as capital stock"

BENJAMIN F. TAYLOR,

The we'll known editor of the Chi
cago Journal, whose letters from tho
army, give, to our mind, the most vivid
and interesting pictures Of camp life
to be found in the whole range of
American newspaper correspondence,
and whose genial and felicitous style
even in the mechanical routine of ed
iting daily newspaper, has gained
for him a splendid reputation as a
writer, will lecture at Irving Hall in
this city, Friday evening, February
18th. Subject-"English words, their
use, abuse and beauty" We repro
duce, as illustrating the peculiarities
of his style, some of his "war pic
tures," sketched while writing from
the Army of the Cumberland:
SELF RELIANCE OF WESTERN SOLDIERS.
If there are men in tho world gifted
with the most thorough self-reliance,
Western soldiers are the mon. To
fight in the grand anger of battle,
seems TO me to require less manly for
titude, after all, than to bear without
murmuring the swarm of little troubles
that vex the camp and march. No
matter where or when you halt, there
thew are at once at home. They know
precisely what to do first, and they do
it. / have seen them march into
strange region at dark, and almost as
soon as fires would show well, they
were twinkling all over the field, the
Sibley cones rising like the work OF
enchantment everywhere, and the lit
tie dog-tents lying snug to the ground,
as if like tho mushrooms, they had
grown there, and the aroma of coffee
and tortured bacon, suggesting croa-
ture comforts, and the whole economy
Of life in canvas cities moving as
steadily on as if it had not intermitted.
The movements Of regiments, you
know are as blind as fate. Nobody
can tell tonight where he will be to-
morrow, and yet with the first glim-
mer of morning the camp is astir, and
the preparations begin for stay
ing there forever; cozy little cabins OF
red cedar neatly fitted, are going up;
here boy is making fireplace and
quito artiscally plastering it with the
inevitable red earth; he has found a
crane somewhere; and swung up thore-
on a two-legged dinner pot; there a
fellow is finishing out chimney with
brick from an old kiln of secession
proclivities, yonder a bower house
closely woven of evergreens is almost
ready for the occupants; tables, stools,
bedsteads, are tumbled together by
the roughest of carpenters, the ave-
nues between the lines of tents are
cleared and smoothed-"policed," in
camp phrase little seats with cedar
awnings in front Of the tents give
cottage look; while the interior, in
rude way, has genuine home-like
air. The bit of looking-glasss hangs
against the cotton wall; handker-
chief of a carpet just before the bunk
marks the stepping off to the land of
dreams; violin case is strung up TO
a convenient hook, flanked by gor-
J geous picture of some hero Of some
East Saginaw courier. (East Saginaw, Mich.) 1859-18??, 1865-02-01
70! Imagination"


"A LovRR's MfsrAKE.-An esteemed
correspondent sends us the following:
"A young man in the township of Erin
who was in the habit Of paying his
addresses to farmers daughter with
out her parent sconsent, having agreed
to visit his sweetheart ON certain
night, and wishing to prevent any
noise or mistake which might load TO
detection, it was mutually agreed that
she should hang parasol from her
window. Accordingly on the appoint
ed evening the young lady having ar
ranged her part of the scheme retired
to rest in the full confidence of its
success. But her maneuvrcs had
been watched by neighbor's boy.
who, divining their import, resolved
to change the position of the parasol
to the old peoples bedroom. With
this intention he listened until he
heard the first snore, then removing
the signal 10 the other window he re-
tired to watch. Before long our young
hero made his appearance, and seeing
the parasol, entered Immediately, and
was beginning to enquire in a very
alfectionate tone if his dear love was
sleeping, when the old man gave n
groan, the old woman a screech, the
young man a spring, and the joke was
ended. = Guelph Adrrtisv.

Tightening the Reins.

As Mr.. WILSON is chairman Of the
Senate Committee on Military affairs,
and may be said to be the military
dictator in that wing of the Capitol,
we are confident that tho following
paragraph, cut from the Congressional
proceedings will interest all of our
readers subject to the next draft:
Mr.. Wilson introduced bill in ad-
ditional to the several acts for enroll
ing aud calling out the national forces,
which was referred to the Military
Committee. The bill provides that
persons enrolled and liable to be draf.-
cd may be accepted as substitutes
second, that no one furnishing navy
substitute shall be exempt unless that
substitute is brought in person to the
board of enrolment and accepted f;
third, any person who knowingly
brings for enlistment convict, insane
or drunken person, or shall defraud
in the matter of bounty, shall be la
bic to 200 fine and two years i'm
prisonment; fourth, that any muster
ing officer who shall muster such per-
son, shall, upon conviction, bo dishon-
orably dismissed fifth, all State or
local bounties, shall be paid in INSTALL
ments, one-third on mastering in, one
third in the middle, and one-third at
the end Of service, unless sooner dis
charged. If killed, the balance to be
paid his widow; sixth, every district
shall make up by all additional draft
or recruiting its loss from desertions
and discharges on account of physical
disability existing before enlistment (;
seventh, all deserters shall be disfran-
ehised, including all who have deserted
heretofore, who shall not report with
in sixty days.

THE PALM TREE.
By MRS. HEMASs.

Ir waved not through an Eastern sky.
Beside a fount Of Arnby
IL wns not fann'd by southern broezo
In some green Isle Of Indian seas,
Nor did its graceful shadow sleep
Ger stream Of Afric, lone and deep.
But fair tho exiled palm tree grew
Midst foliage of no kindred hue;
Through the laburnuuis dropping gold
Rose the light shaft of orient mould,
And Europc's violets, family sweet,
Purpled the moss-bsds at its feet.
Strange look'd IL there the willow strcam'd
Where silyery waters near II gleam'd;
The lme-bough lured the honey -bee
To murmur by the deserts tree,
And showers Of snowy roses mado
lustre in its fan-lke shade
There came an eve of festal hours
hich music hird that gardens bowers;
Lamps that from. Towering branches hung
On sparks Of dew soft coors flung,
And bright forms glanced-a fairy show
tor tho blossoms to and fro
But one, lone one
Seomd reckless OF all dance or song
He was youth Of dusky mien,
Whereon tho Indian sun had been,
OF crested brow, and long black hair
stranger, like the palm-tree, thero.
And slowly, sadly, moved his plumes,
Glittering athwart the leaiy glooms;
lie passd the pale green olives by,
Nor won the chestnut-flowers his eyej
But when to that sole palm he came,
Then shot rapture through his frame
To him, to him its rustlng spoke,
The silence of lis soul IL broke!
Ii WHISPERED Of his own bright islc,
That lit the ocean with smile;
Ay, to his ear that native tone
Had something Of the sea waves moan!
Ills mothers cabin home, that lay
Where feathery cocoas frnged the bay;
The dashing of his brcihren's oar,
Tho conoh- note heard along the shoro:-
All through his wakening bosom swept.
lie clasp'd his country's tree and wept
Oh! scorn him not the strength whereby
The patriot girds himself to die,
The unconquorable Iower, which fills
The freeman battling on his hills,
These have one fountain deep and clear
Tho same whence guslid the chld-lke tear!
