The Federal State taxes in Ohio now amount
to the comfortable little sum Of $75 ,OOO 900 a
year. This is a tax of $3.50 upon every voter or
head of family in the State. The Dalles Moun-
taineer very "disloyaly remarks in this con-
nection that 'it is rather expensive to run the
chest government on earth" The editor ought
to reflect that the additional freedom the peo-
pie have acquired is uperabundant-nay, a
most bountifully liberal compensation for the
paltry taxes they are annually required to pun
gle.' 1t is not every government that can af-
ford such munifcent Injuries as we now enjoy;
such muchness Of freedom and such insignif-
cant littleness of taxes. Oh, the blessings Of d
free governments and yet some people are so
foolishly blind that it is impossible for them to
approximate to anything like just appreciation.

taneer is responsible for the following:
Yesterday, as four or five Of the boys were
paltaking of their dinner in a room on Second
street. the conversation turning on the late city
election, some of them made the remark that "a
great many men did not vote until near night
in order to obtain the highest price for their
Yotes' The remark seemed ito touch on the
raw big six feet-two fellow who was standing
by, and thereupon becoming quite hostile, de-
clared that HE voted the Democratic ticket, and,
furthermore, if anybody didn't like him, they
could have anything out of him they wanted
A little fellow, about half the size Of the chiyal
rous cuss, 'didn't like it, and told the big un'
to get out out of the house or he would put him
out Six-feet-two not showing any symptoms
of going, the little un knocked down and
dragged him out Upon regaining his feet the
big fellow, seeing the necessity of doing some
thing to cover his disgrace, tried the sympathy
dodge. Seeing the crowd gathered round, he
related a most pitiful tale Of how -four id
Abolitonsts bad pitched into him because he
was Democratp The best of the Joke was,
the four he accused of pitching on him were
all Democrats. The last seen of him he was

THE SPRING EMGRATIoN.-T st. Louis cor
respondent Of the Alta California writes;
Every indication points to the belief that there
will soon be a very heavy emigration to Califor-
MIA and the Pacific slope in the Spring Thou
sands of Missourans, who have been nearly
ruined by the war-whose homes have been des-
olated and prospects blasted by the warfare
preparing to leave the State. A majority of
them are secessionists, who have lost faith in
the fortunes of the Southern Confederacy ever
being able to reclaim Missouri but there are
likewise hundreds, perhaps thousands of good
Union men, who have been burned out by guer-
rillas and are now getting ready to seek their
fortunes in the Far West. Many Western papers
contain advertisements of parties who wish to
form emigration associations to cross the plains,
and advertisements of mules and oxen, suitable
for trip to California, are quite common. Ill
inois country papers contain advertisements Of
individuals having stores to sell out, 'owner
going TO California" and at no time has the su-
perior climate Of California been more generally
appreciated; but above all this, the hard money
the gold and silver basis of California-has an
irresistible attraction for no matter how loudly
men rave about the goodness of greenbacks,
there is not one in a thousand who does not
honestly prefer gold and silver if he can get it.
