A GooD JOKE ON WEST PoINT.--
We hear, says the Hartford (Conn.)
Press, that West Point engineering
has come to griet. The labor Of
fifty soldiers has been employed for
a year past in building a new dock
of stone some two hundred yards
further down the river than the old
one. Along the waters edge, too,
with great labor, a road Of cut stone
has been built, and the whole under
taking wanted only a few weeks of
completion. 1t has been the abhor-
renee Of the soldiers, for it has been
kind Of "galley work" imposed up
on them as a punishment. Tt has
been to the superintendent, General
Cullum, as "the apple Of his eye"
and he has personally superintended
it. Having finished the stone wall,
earth was put behind it, and as the
foundation was a shelving rock,
when the earth became moist, it
acted like wedge, and every one
was amazed, and not little pleased,
one day last week, to find the whole
affair non est, gone down the river,
and scarcely a trace left of years
labor and $4,000. ay

DEATH OF AN OLD CITIZEN.-Our
obituary column, this morning chron-
icles the death of a venerable and
greatly respected citizen Of New Or
leans, Captain james Forsyth, for
the last forty five years resident of
this city, died last evening. At the
great age Of ninety.three, bis soul left
its earthly tenement. He apparently
died without disease. Until within
few days he was moving about
with his usual activity. The oil
gave out and the light expired. For
long time Captain Forsyth was
the chief merchant in this city in the
Florida trade, and he was one of the
first who ran a steamboat ON the
Mississippi river. He will long be
remembered for many noble traits Of
character.-New Orleans Crescent,

A New FERTILIZER DIscovERED.--
A new method Of fertilizing has been
brought out by two members of the
agricultural academy at Bonn. which
consists in the distribution Of a liberal
supply of air beneath the surface of a
field. A series Of pipes fully perfor-
ated by small holes is laid in the
ground at depth of from three to
six feet, and being connected with
furnace a constant current is main.
tanned, whereby the subsoil becomes
so thoroughly saturated with air that
when communication with the outer
air is cut off, the fire continues to
burn for considerable time. By this
the air is drawn out of the soil, leav-
ing it ready for another charge, and
by repeating the process as often as
may be required, a beneficial effect
is produced in the increased produc-
tiyeness of the land.

It will be noticed that the words comforting ju-
risdiction in the County Courts are identical with
the description of taxable objects in schedule A,
while these words are not used at all in schedule
B. The tax in the latter schedule is usually on
the person. as the price of license for transact
ing business, and it is expressly provided that on
paying the State tax the party is entitled to the
license The requirement. Of this license IS to
compel payment. Surely if county tax is like
wise DUE its payment would be secured by similar
requisition. So in the act for collecting revenue,
the Sheriff is particularly ordered to give license
to merchants and others on their paying the 'taxes
imposed and enumerated in schedule B.. So in
section so bond is required of parties commencing
business after July LIST, to secure the payment of
State taxes. To ascertain these taxes the Sheriff
may administer an oath, but no provision is made
at all to obtain county taxes from these sources.
Again. by section SO the Sheriff must keep re-
cord of the moneys collected by him from the
Clerks of the Court Ii. e. under schedule c. and
under schedule B, and the clerk must send copy
Of this rery record to the Comptroller. The Sheriff
must pay the moneys thus ascertained to the Pub
lie Treasurer that is, the Sheriff pays all the tax
es collected under schedules and G to the State.
He is nowhere ordered to pay any portion thereof
to the county Trustee.
Again, by section SS of the 'sAct for Collecting
Revenue, if the Clerk fails to pay over the taxes
received by him, mentioned in schedule c. suit
IS to be brought and it is expressly provided that
50 the whole recovery shall be paid to the Treas
ury. And, in seton 81, all the taxes received by
him, will appear, by subsequent sections, to the
Public Treasury.
So, in section A, on OF before the LIST day of
July, the Clerk must deliver the Sheriff a copy of
the tax list, containing the public tax and the
taxes imposed by the County Court. There is no
other provision for informing the Sheriff of the
amount of any other County taxes, than are i'm
posed on listed subjects. If any others were in
tended to be allowed, it seems certain some pro-
vision would have been made for notification to
the Sheriff of their impOsitiOn
Another argument may be derived from the
words Of the proviso, which regulates the mode of
taxation by the County Courts. The taxables
there spoken of are, 1st things taxed according to
value, and secondly, .sn9jects specially taxed"
The persons who i'll schedule pay specific per
centage their gross receipts nett profits are
not appropriately described by the terms used in
the proviso.
Other arguments might be adduced, but I think
the foregoing considerations are sufficient to es-
tablish the proposition that the County Courts
cannot tax the persons and objects mentioned in
schedules B and c.
Very respectfully,
KEMP. =. BATTLE,
Public Treasurer.

all the officers of the Bureau engaged in farming,

General Howard to cause the arrest OF every Off
Ger of the Bureau in North Carolina who Is en-
Gagged or pecuniarily interested in the cultivation
Of plantations, and Brigadier General W. E.

Judge Advocate General Holt has been instructed
