Savings banks are taxed oDe-half of one per

STARVED TO DEATH By REBELS George c.
Butler, son Of l.. G. Batler, of Sutter township,
Sacramento county, says the Sacramento IN
ion, died at Fort Sumter July 29th, 1854.
His age was twenty years ard seven months
He was Sergeant of the Second Massachusetts
Heavy Artillery, and was stationed at Ply
mouth, North Carolina, where be was captured,
April S, 1864, by the rebels and taken, with
twenty one others, TO the Slaughter Pen at An.
dersonville, Georgia. Theuce they were sent
to Fort Sumter where the only one left alive
TO tell the tale of misery was saved from n
gering death and returned TO his home at W OF
cester, Mass. From the Sb of April to July
%, 1864, their rations were only one pint OF
corn meal and cobs, with DO facilities for cook
ing. A sister of the deceased, writing from
Worcester to her father here, says that be was
one of twenty one Worcester boys who went
" one returned from it alive This is only one
of some 10000 cases Of starvation of Union
soldiers, the lady writes, aud she feels indignant
that more energetic measures have not been Ia
ken by the Government to secure az exchange,
under the circumstances. or better treatment of
our gallant boys by wholesale retaliation. 1t
would seem from experience that the latter is
the only argument that has any weight with
the rebel fieuds of the South, and they should
be treated to it often and persisteDtly. The
blood runs cold when such atrocities as We have
referred to are heard Of and the law of com
pensation should be rigidy dispensed in justice
to our suffering soldiers as well as to the mon
sters who have originated this barbsrity.

SEVERE But DEsERvED.-The San Francisco
News Letter, published by an alien English
inan, has for three years been landing the
rebels 1t bow turns round and abuses them
for cowardice 10 abandoning Charleston. The
Virginia (Nevads) Enterprise, sound Union
paper, administers the following deserved
rebuke to this Englishman
When English renegades begin TO refer to
the SoutherDers as towards, because they lack
the men and means TO meet the stalwart and
overpowering divisions Of Sherman, it is time
for loyal men. who have 10 sympathy with
treason, but who are capable of appreciating
bravery in an enemy, to fling the ungenerous
insinuatiou into the teeth Of the utterer. The
evacuation Of Charleston was rendered neces-
sary by the occupation of Columbia, and the
withdrawal OF the rebel troops from that city
was no more an act of cewardice than the sur
render Of Vicksburg or Donelson. Southern
troops have fought and died as bravely 10 this
rebellion as men we're ever known to do, and
weak as is the Confederacy today. it has more
than strength enough, more than nerve enough,
more than will ensugh, to keep its borders
clear Of British troops. though backed by every
British including, of course, the
British editor OF the News Letter.

Another GREEsBAcK DEcIsIoS.-The Sac
rnmento Bee Of the 9th says: Another decision
on the grecnbsck question was made, today
by the Supreme Court. Its merits may be
understood from what follows: The Bear
River Water Company, prior to the passage
of the Legal Teuder Act, gave note land a
mortgage on its property to secure the same),
for the payment Of some 27,000. At maturity,
they rendered greenbacks in payment, which
the holders OF the note refused TO accept The
Court to day decided that the offer of green
backs by the Company was a legal tender for
the full payment Of the debt. The effect OF all
the decisions on the greenback question may
be now summed up as follows: l. State and
county taxes must be paid in gold coin. 2. A
contract made in writing to pay iD gold will be
enforced. ). Greenbacks are legal tender
for debts, where the debtor did not specifically
contract to pay in gold. A. Greenbacks are a
legal tender for all debts contracted prior to The
passage Of the Legal Tender Act by Congress
