The Cry Of a widowed Mother.

What can DO more touching or pathetic than
the following appeal from heart-strcken
mother for her lost son ? How many a soul
does it touch with grief; aud how many a
wish will be made that her appeal may bring
again to her arms her noble boy:
early in the war my ouy child, noble
boy of sixteen, regardless of a mothers per-
suasions, and needless of the charms of home
that left him no wish uugratified, left me for
the army. When last heard from, he was
wounded and languishing in prison at Camp
Chase, and / have since lost all trace of him.
Those who have had children born to them
can imagine my distress, and will surely, if in
their power, aid widowed mother in finding
her lost darling, or at least assist her in finding
his grave, should God have called him hence.
Any communication addressed to Messrs. Mann,
Boyd and Jonas, publishers of the Daily Sun
ny South, Aberdeen, Mississippi, will reach
me. All Southern and Western papers please
copy. MARY E. WEST"

From New Orleans,

Ae,o Orleans, JAN 15-Brownsville ac-
counts say that the recently surprised Liberals
were captured through the treachery of one of
their number. The state of affairs in Monterey
is so alarming, that the inhabitants are emf
grating to San Luis Potosi with their specie
and all their valua5les
The Mobile Register says the steamer Lille,
captured by outlaws, was rescued at Montsom-
cry by detachment of the 21st Missouri reei-
ment, after landing about "a bales of Govern
ment cotton.
The Sd Michigan cavalry was disarmed at
San Antonio for mutiny.
There was a meeting Of the National Banks
organized at Galveston.
Capt Coleman, late of the Confederate States
army, grandson of Crittendou and nephew
of Gen. Pillow, left to-day for Havana, having
been banished by military commission for
steamboat burning, under Gen Forests com
mand.

THE LUST FOR OFFICE,

We have no idea that the scramble for office,
which took place in our Legislature during
the last week, shall compromise the people OF
this section of Virginia.
We have all due respect for Governor Pier
point, and will "hold up his hands in all
good measures that he may propose. But
when his pets enter the Lists and are defeated,
it is their lookout, and not ours.
We know nothing whatever Of the gentle
men whose names were before the Legislature
for Office. We presume they are all "honor-
able men," But we scout the idea that, be-
cause Jones happened to beat Smith, the 10y
atty of Virginia is thereby to be brought in
question by the Richmond Republic. and other
papers of that elk"

Taxation-The Revenue Laws.

Many of our readers will be glad to learn,
from the following which we take from the
National hateligencer, that active steps are be-
ing taken by the Government to repair the
burdens of taxation
The Committee of Ways and Means are ex-
pected to consider the subject of taxation, and
to report new system which shall be free
from many of the defects and evils of that
which now exists. The internal revenue law
was hastily formed, and was intended only as
temporary measure, demanded by the emergen-
cy of the war.
| 1t is conceded on all sides that radical
change must now be made, with a view to
more economy in collecting the taxes, as well
as to the relief Of the people from petty ex-
| actions and vexatious inquisitions.
A system will be formed which will afford
greater amount OF revenue at less cost of
collection, and at the same time be more
equal and less burdensome in its operations.
Last March a commission of three members
was appointed by the Secretary of the Treasu-
ry, under provision of law, to examine the
working of the present system in all its details,
and report any improvements that may be
practicable. The committee, it is said, have
been industriously engaged in this work, but
were not ready to make a definite report at
the opening Of the session. The Committee
of Ways and Means are DESTROYS of avaiing
themselves of the suggestions of the practical
fnanciers who compose the commission, and
have urged upon it. it is said, the expediency
Of making report by the middle of the present
month.
1t is much to be hoped that new and i'm
proved tariff and internal revenue system may
be putin operation at the commencement OF
the next fiscal year.
