EXECUTIVE MANSION,
WAssiHefoH, FssauARY sth, 1865.

E1is Eresliency Gove,nsr Smith:
Complaint is made 70 me, BY Vermont, that the
assignment Of her quota for the Draft ION the
pending call Is intrinscally unjust, asd also In
allow credits Of mon previously furnished. To
illustrate. supposed case is stated, ~ follows:
Vermont and New llamp'hirs must, between
them, furnish 60o0 men n the pending call. and,
being equal, each must furnish As many ~ the
ether m the long run. But the Government finds
that, on former calls, Vermont furnished . sur
plus of 500, and New Hampshire surplus Of
lsoo-thsse two snrpluse' making 1000, added to
tho 5000. making 5000, to be furnished BY the
tive States, or 1000 each, less BY fair credits -
Then subtract vsrmont's surplus Of 500 from her
1910 leaves $500 ~ her quota on the pending
call; and Likewise subtract New Hampshire's sur.
plus Of 1900 from her 1000 leaves $500 rs her
quota on the pending call. These $500 and $500
make precisely the COCO which the supposed case
requires from the two States; and T. is just and
equal, for Vernon. to furnish 1000 more Sow
than New Hampshire, because New Hampshire
has heretofore furnished 1000 more than Vermont,
which eqalises the burthens Of the two in the
long run. And this result, 50 far Gem being bad
faith to vcrmont,is indispensable to keeping good
faith with New Hsmp hire. BY no other result
can the 6OIO men be obtained from the two States,
and, At the same time deal justly and keep faith
with both, and We do but confuse ourselves in
questioning the processes by which the right re-.
suit was reached.
The supposed ease is port, ct, IS IN illustration
The pending call is net for 5000 men subject ~
fair credits but for ,00o remaining after eli fair
er,dis haps been deducted; and /: is impossible TO
eoncede what Vermont asks without coming out
short of the SOC, 900 men. or making other 10.
cslities pay for tho Partially shown her.

will for years to come, as the growth Of
saplin is very rapid.
There are nine single saws, eight gangs,
and two board circulars in Ellsworth, with
the usual email machinery in such mills.
The machine which interested me most
was a new shiugle machine, which is said
to be capable Of saving eighty thousand
shingles in ten hours. When saw it
with slow speed, and were only saving
from twenty-five to thirty thousand per
day. The saw runs horizontally, and saws
two bolts at once, one going on while the
other leaves the saw, the shingles drop
from the saw and 60 to room below
where they are jointed by two men, and
punched BY three or four others, The
shingles are sawed remarkably smooth and

The Military Look.

Gen. Phil. Sheridan is on the rampne
again, and the reports which have come ia
hand show that he 10 busy and is like to be
for sometime. This move, If continued,
will give General Lee much trouble. pre-
venting his sending troops to assist Gen
eral Johnston in heading of Sherman, and
may necessitate the evacuation ef Rich
mond earlier than Lee desires or intended.
The movement Of General Sheridan up
the valley. is not al isolated enterprise,
but must be part Of the general pro-
gramme instituted by Grant to hasten the
rebels to find the last ditch. Sheridan's
move assists Shcrman's and keeps Lee
from weakening his own force to assist any
other rebel general that finds himself in
Strengthened circumstances.
If the rumor IL confirmed that General
Sherman has beaten General Johnston and
captured a large number Of prisoners, then
the rebel ferccs cannot well rally again in
sufficient force to offer serious opposition
to Shcrman's victorious march. This ru-
NOR, however. may only be shadow
preceding the looming events" which
will gil to ovcrAowing the cup Of Shcr-
mans victorious military career.
Intelligence from Newbern states that
efforts are being made on both sides to
concentrate their forces for final struggle.
The Raleigh Progress says, ''the Fcdcrals
arc concentrating a force Of 10000 q.
Newbern, which will soon be ready to
strike Les army, in conjunction with
Sherman's fOrces.''

its executive calendar Of al pending
Presidential nominations-six hundred in
number, scarcely one of q militaD

The President yesterday sent in the
nomination Of John d. Defrees, for Super

Senate unanimously confirmed it.

One Swallow does not make
q Summer:

There are many scenes We pass through,
and many sights We witness, which leave
impressions on our minds corresponding to
our mental condition at the time. We
have noticed that in a crowd on board q
boat, or in stage coach, or omnibus, that
some will be disturbed and suffering
mentally because everything does not GO
on smoothly, while others will extract
amusement, and even pleasure out Of. the
untoward occurrences Of life. If there il
any thing which goes 20 far to make
travellers good natured, as good public
hotels, we have yet to learn what it is
But even these suffer at times, by nc
general fault, but because some little
thing went wrong at that particular time,

at his Hotel under more favorable circum.
stances, and he gives more flattering re-
put. The conditions" were all wrong
when Bro, Merrill Of the Home Journal
visited Ellsworth.
His brother. coming here few weeks
later, arrives in good season for supper
and the thermometer indicates temperat-
ure more congenial to human happiness,
and he writes thus, Of the Ellsworth
Hotel:
ELLSWORTH,
We put up at the Ellsworth House, not
without some misgivings, with regard to
to my reception, as had heard the house
spoken of as not being first class, and was
probably not little biased by the sport Of
the Editor Of the "Journai," but was dis
appointed to find everything in good shape,
with good fires in the bar-rOome and hall,
(which latter have not seen in any other
house) and the landlord and clerk ready to
receive US. In order that justice may be
done the house l will say that have not
stopped at better house, or one in which
! found better quarters, or accommoda-
tons, or food, thadfat this house. Others
may have Jared diiJsssufly, but this is the

The Tax on Freights.

We learn from Warrington that oul
representative, Mr.. Pike, succeeded in
getting his amendment to the tariff bill
through both houses of Congress before it,
adjournment. This amendment rcpeals
the tax Of 2 l-2 per cent on gross receipts
or frcights altogether. and puts the tax on
the tonnage. The opposition to this amend
ment came from the Western members, or
rather the opposition to a change from
gross to net receipts as was first attempted.
The tax on tonnage, as it finally passed. is
30 cents. This may seem high, but when
it is recollccted that it is vast improve
ment ON the 2 l-2 per cent on gross re-
|ceipts, our people will readily acquiesce,
and bessow the proper praise due for the
change. As it 10 new, there can be. no
doubt as to the amount due, nor can there
be any difficulty in the collection. 1t is
to be paid, only annually. and therefore
owners and masters will be saved the dis
agreeable necessity Of having an assessor
visiting them monthly and making all
manner Of inquiries into their private
business. 1t will save the assessors D grea,
deal Of trouble and anxiety.
In levying an internal tax for revenue
in . country Of such diversified interests q,
ours, it must necessarily take time to ad
just it in way to operate equally. o.
nearly 30. The wonder only is. that in I
new and untried path Il lsw-making Xix
this. that the tax bill is so we'll adapted t,

tax Of 30 cents per ton. applies to vessel
