The Commissioner of Internal Revenue received
communication from farmer, containing inqui-
assessed in 1863 liable to taxation. In reply the
Commissioner decides that there is no provision Of
on account of their having paid tax already; and in
the second place. it is. clear that in majority of
cases it is apparent the fact that the second tax is
paid, consequently the tax will be assessed upon the

JANETTE,S HAIR.

JAN RHXE6'S nAARs
"Oh, loosen the snood that you wear, Janette,
Let me tangle hand in your hair, my pet"
For the world to me had no daintier sight
Than your brown hair yelling your shoulders
white, -s
As tangled hand in your hair, my pet.
1t was brown with golden gloss, Janette,
1t was finer than silk of the floss my pet;
Twas beautiful mist falling down to your wrist
Twas thing to be braided, and jeweled, and
kissed
Twas the loveliest hair in the world my petl
MY arm was the arm of clown, Janette,
1t was sinewy, bristled and brown, my pet,
Your round white neck and your wealth Of tress
Your beautiful plenty of hair, my pet.
Your eyes had swimming glory, Janette,
Revealing the old, dear story, my pet,
They were gray with that chastened tinge of the
sky t7'
When the trout leaps quickest to snap the fy-
And they matched with your golden hair my
pet
Your lips but have no words, Janette,
They were fresh as the twitter of birds my pet.
When the spring is yourg, and the roses are wet
With dew drops in each red bosom set.
And they suited your gold-brown hair my pet.
Oh, you tangled my life in your hair, Janette,
Twas silken and golden snare my pet;
But so gentle the bondage my soul did implore
The right to continue your slave evermore,
With my fingers enmeshed in your hair, my
pet.
y
Thus ever dream what you were Janette,
With your lips, and your eyes, and your hair,
my pet;
In the darkness of desolate years 1 moan,
And my tears fall bitterly over the stone
That covers your golden hair, my pet.

Foreign Gossip.

Apriva.e letter from Yokohama, Japan,
says that at an European ball recently Civ
en- in that city, there were seventy gentle
men and eight ladies.
A Paris dealer announced that fve-
franc gold piece was secreted in one of eve
ry hundred sausages exposed for sale in his
shop. The demand for sausages immedi-
ately became enormous. A Aperfumer hav-
ing adopted similar method of increas-
ing the sale Of his soap, was threatened by
the sausage maker with legal proceedings
for initiating his invention, but he soon as
certained that he had no grounds of action.
AT the Lewes petty sessions, in Eng
land, few days ago, laborer was charg.
ed with stealing five turnips, valued at I'd.
He did not deny taking the turnips, but
gave the following extraordinary reason
for doing so: He had child who was a
cripple, and person told him If he got
five turnips, not hia own, and rubbed the
ckild's back with them, and threw them
away without saying anything to anybody,
ii would cure the child. He had turnips
of his own, but was told they would not
answer the purpose.
A Paris paper has the following -
"There is at this time in course of con.
struction, as an experiment and possible
model, in the Quarter de Role, 3 hoase
having nine stories above the ground floor,
and, with basement and cellars, altogether
eleven stories. As land in the centre Of
Paris is of great value, and, consequently,
rents very high, the object Of the building
in question is to obtain increased space By
means of increased elevation. The house
will have this peculiarity--that it viii have
no staircase, but it will be provided with
an hydraulic apparatus similar to that in
use by builders to raise their materials to
upper scafolds. This apparatus censists
of two fiat forms, ascending and descend.
ing every minute without making any
noise. Upon these platforms viii be plac.
ed seats, SO that the dodgers in the house
will be enabled to reach the highest stories
without any fatigue. From this arrange
ment it would follow that the upper stories
being the most airy, commanding the best
views, and being free from all risk of in.
convenience from dodgers above, will prob.
ably obtain higher rent than the other
apartments. Thus an entire revolution in
house arrangement will be effected. The
new buildings of the Bank Of France win,
it is said, be provided with ascending stair,
such as we have described. rr e.s.

The New Preacher.

Now, whoever your new preacher may
be, whether you petitioned for or against
him, or came only by the viii Of the
Church authorities, consider that the
Church sends him to care for your soul,
and to seek and lead to Christ those who
are sinners. He deserves your confidence,
your hearty and constant sympathy and
aid, in all matters that pertain to his work.
You should not fail to have and manifest
a proper concern for bis temporal comfort
How can man hare any heart to labor
for and with people when he is thrust,
with his family, into an uncomfortable
parsonage, and sees that tho stewards are
driving sharp bargain with him, deter.
mined to pay as little as possiblei You
touch the best part of mans nature
when you show him love, and care for his
loved ones. There is no place where a
liberal support pays so well as among
ministers. A halfstarving lawyer, doctor,
or school-teacher is 8 most pitiable sight;
but an impoverished, ill-fed, and ill-eloth-
ed minister seems to us always an argu-
ment against tie Divine goodness. Make
the acquaintance of your pastor ss soon as
you can. Don't wait for him to come to
you, but call at the parsonage and make
him welcome With pleasant worda aud
smiles, profer your assistance in any mat
ters in which you can help him. There
are many ways in which kindness and
goodwill can be shown. This is the style
in which pastor is made blessing But
if you receive him with distrust, make
hasty prsjudgements in his favor, you viii
scarcely fail to make him uncomfortable.

UNDERwooD's FEARS OF ASSASSINATION.
We can imagine nothing more ludicrous
than Underwood's fears of assassination,
and the consequent rumors growing out OF
his weakness in this respect. His fears, or
those of his friends, have even designated
the assassin, namely, DR.. Maddux, of this
city. "The thief sees an officer in every
bush," and the guilty Underwood sees an
avenger of wrongs in every Confederate.
We might undertake to quiet his appre-
tensions, for we are sure that he is safe
from harm. He is looked upon with con-
tempt, not with hatred. No one values
his opinions or wishes, or even so much as
holds him responsible for his silly twaddle
upon the bench. He reminds us of de-
mented man we saw in Washington years
ago who constantly labored under the
idea that Louis Napoleon and the Emperor
of Russia were anxiously searching the
world over to find him. When these po-
tentates catch and hang the Washington
lunatic, the Alexandria BOBBY may begin
to tremble.
