Taxation Of Government Securities.
OF course it does not escape potice. that
those who are calling fir STATE a2stioR OF
public securities, and predicting the repud'-
alton Of the national deit beeause it is not
so taxed, are mainly the men who mad not
faith enough in the GoytTnucut to invest in
it, loans. when every dollas 60 invested WAS
direct aid TO tbc national cause, and who
would now, if they dared, be urging the
assuu ption OF tse rebel deht by the country.
This question doe not seem TO be = rery
complicated one. The na'ional loans were
taken on the express prc,ision by Congress
that they should be exempt from local taxa
tion. IL may be a misfortune tiHt thereby

Wheat and corn and other crops. are looking
very fine, but the continued rain for the last
few weeks is very seriously injuring the wheat.
Much Of it which stands in shocks in the fields,
is grewing. until the tops looks green No one
ever remembers so wet harvest time.
Perhaps may be tedious in my descriptions,
but to those who are about to oemigrSte, and they
ar. nov coming in great numbers, it cannot fail
to be Of interest, to know that in parts of the
country where there is plenty Of room for set
tlement, there are for themselves, their sons and
daughters, such fine privileges and advantages,
colleges, schools and churches, and plenty of
vacant land of the finest description on which to
settle. Grinnell is not the only place where
such advantages are offered, but is one which
holds out many inducements to New Englanders
and is rapidly being taken up. The College Is
being very well endowed. and cannot fail under
present management and auspices, to soon be

yer was a poor boy, worked his way to England
before the mast. ami bad there. by his persever,
ance and industry, with the assistance OF LORD
John Russell and some other persons, succeeded
IN acquiring a soun1 academic and legal etuca-
ton. An example certainly which some OF the
whites might proftably follow.
Black magistrates preside over the inferior
Courts, black men are editors Of newspapers,
and to a greater or less degree have entered into
every branch OF industry and every avenue Of
business. and have already been able to COM
pete, with good degree Of success, with the
whites.
Many of them are, of course, poor, and doubt
less will continue TO be the labOrIng class. The
redundant population and the very moderate
sum paid IN wages lead them, in numerous IN
stances, to resort to theft to supply their actual
necessities.
Great crimes are, however, among the lower
population. very rare; and the petty larceuies,
which are common and fll the prisons and pub
lic works may, perhaps, be charged in some
measure to the wealthy class, who make no ade-
quste provision for their wants when unemploy-
Ell, and DO not give them remunerative wages
when employed"
