Lieut.. General WINFIELD SCorT died At
West Point, y. Y, on Tuesday morning,
May 18th. His funeral. by direction Of the
War Department, took place at Vest Point,

Gently returned from the south, apparently
improved in health. On Saturday he was
outa usual, and showed no signs Of Bis early
demise. But on Sunday lie became indis.
posed, aud began failing quite fast, though
none of his physicians expected he would
expire at such an early day. He was per
fectly cou,ciou. to the moment Of his death,
though he had lost lis voice some two hours
previously. lie recognized the Chaplain Of
the pos: ten minutes before he died, and
clssped hi. hands in silence.
Gen. Scott was born near Petersburg, Va,
June 18th: i7S6, and was consequently, at
the time of bis dea.h within few days of
50 years Of age.
The name of Gea. S. has been so intimate
Il connected with The history of this country
for the last half century, that there are few
persons of common intelligence who do not
know more about him than We could say in
an ordinary newspaper article. 1t is not
necessary. therefore. that We should attempt
here 10 give either sketch Of his military
career, or TO portray his character. As his
life was. passed in the faithful, devoted SER
vice of his country, 50 his name will ly-, in
its history as long as that history shall be

Europe.

The war cloud, instead of passing away,
continues to thicksn over Europe. The
breach between Prussia and Austria, about
the Duchies of Schleswig and Holsten, in
stead of being in q fair way of composition,
grows wider, and both nations are vigorously
preparing for w ar. Italy, also, Is preparing
for war with all her might. Louis Napolsan
looks on placid!y, confident that when al
parties have exhausted themselves, he cnn
step in and gra sp the big prize, and let the
others foot the bills. Russia also looks on
cymplscently, regarding her chances for
dropping down on Cons,antinople as growing
immensely favorable. England alone is UNI
easy All her interests beng pecuniary, the
war, whatever turn it may take, cannot fail
to injure her prosperity.
In tho House of Lords, May lS:h, Earl
Clarendon, Secretary Of State to- Foreign
Affairs, in response to certain inquiries rela-
tive to foreign affairs, stated:
at j, impossible. to alleviate the gravity
of the crisis. can reply that both official
and confidential communications are in pro-
gress at this moment ] can scarcsly as yet
give them the character Of negotiations, but
they are going on ut this moment, and hope
that they may result in meeting together of
all the powers Of Europe; both OF those who
are neutral, and Of those who are arminG,
but cannot hold out hope that .hry will
terminate IN peace, though hope a meeting
together of all TIE powers Of Europe may
give some hope of an amicabe solution. |
can only say that 70 effort on tho part of her
Maiesty's Government will be spared to bring
about such q result. | believe, also, that
this il. the truth OF the Emperor of the
French, bat in the present state of these
communications, TO which, as have said,
canr OF give tie name of negotiations, think
it is inexpedieat to say more
The financial panic Ia England, however,
had sensibly subsidized, but heavy SUSPENSIONS
continued, and other, were feared. The
weekly statement Of ihs Bank Of England
shows an increase Of el0,O00,0 900 in the
advances on private securities, showing how

ei already, in reference to the great Turner
Festival to take place at Ottawa next Monday
and Tuesday. Suffice it to say, The arrange

The Tax Hill.

Tho passage of the New Tax Bill By the
lower House Of Congress was msniion4d in
our last. It makes many important chs nges
in the presents Internal Revenue law b t we
have yet seen no copy of the new bill. and
cannot therefore say what those change are.
We nstice, however, in the proceedings bf the
house on tho 23d May, that tine follow Ing a.
mendment offered BY Mr. Cook. the rep4 esen>
ta,ive from this district, was adopted, Ind is
a part of the bill
Pror,ded. That III estimating sales of good,
wares, and nisrchandise for the purPPse Of
this section, any sales made by or Il trough
another broker upon which tax ha3 been
paid shall not be estimated and included MS
sold by the broker for whom the sale was
made.
What the effect of this provision " i'll be,
We shall let Nj, Cook explain in ba 3 own
words, copied from his remarks when he pro-
rosed the amendment
The effect of ii is 10 prevent duplica te tax

cate la has been paid-one eighth charged
to the first purchaser, one tenth charged upon

amendment is offered 10 prevent tie dupli>
cation Of these taxes. ] will state. also, tha.
the Amendment ha, been submitted to the
Committee of Ways and Means md approved
By them.
Again,
Eo", for the purpose of fixing the tax OF
sales, to BE- paid by tae broker ard the mer~
chant, the came sale ought not TO be counted

CoSGEEss-The senate has been hammer.
ing, during the week, on the Reconstruction
report which was passed several weeks ago
by the house. The caucus of the republican
members decided to strike out the Sd section
entirely and proposed other amendments, so
that the report, a, now shaped, constitutes all
persons born in tho United States citizens
thereof and of the State in which they reside
ap?ortions representation according TO vo>
ters, disfranchised rebels excepted and ex-
cludes from holding federal or state Offices
all rebels who had held Office under the State
or the United States and taken an oath to
support the Constitution Of the United States.
Various attempts have been made to amend
the caucus report, but were uniformly voted
down by about IL to 33, by which vote, it is
believed, the report will pass the senate.
The House passed the bill on the 3O;h to
continue the Freedmcns Bu-eau two years
