THE CHoLERA.-HalrS Journal Of Health gives
the following suggestions, which deserve the
immediate attention of all who wish TO avoid
the scourge OF cholera, which threatens to
attack us next summer:
LIST. Every householder owes it to himself,
to his family, to his neighbors,. to the COM
munity in which he resides, to have his house,
from cellar to garnet, from the street curb 10
the rear line of his lot, most scrupulously
cleansed, by sweeping, washing, and white
washing.
2d. Every man who has any authority in
city or town government should consider
himself bound by the oath OF office, and by
every consideration of humanity, 10 give him
self no rest until every street, alley, close
gutter, and sewer, is placed in n state of as
perfect cleanliness as possible, and kept so
until the frosts Of next season come.
Sd. These cleansings should be done now,
in February and March, because, if PUT off
until warm weather, the very effort neCes-
sary for the removal of filth Will only tend, il
the essential nature of things, to hasten the
appearance Of the disease, TO increase its
malignity, aud to extend the time of its devas-
tations because the suns of spring and sum-
mer the sooner warm into life and intensity
the yiperic and malignant influence, which, in
its remorseless tread, wrecks so much of
human happiness and desolates so many
hearthSt0neS.

AUGUSTA, Me. February 4.-Under sus.
pension of the rules, Mr.. Payson democrat
was permitted TO offer TO the House to-day a
series of resolves, declaring that it should be
the first desire and prayer OF every citizen
and the chief aim of every statesman, that
the lately insurgent States should be speedily
restored 10 their former orbits; that all fac
tious opposition merits and receives stern
reprobation that President Johnson is enti-
tied to our warmest thanks for his earnest
efforts in that regard that all petitions and
applica tions from abroad for the punishment
of offences committed against the Govern
ment belong rather to a barbarots than to n
civilized people; that the Government being
clothed with power for such punishment and
being itself the best and only judge of the
same all such petitions and applications are
uncaled for, unreasonable, and prejudicial 10
the true interests of the country.

The Two Companies.

On Yesterday morning the Committee on
Roads and Internal Navigation OF both Houses
Of the Assembly met in the Senate Chamber
10 consider the two opposing applications for
the charter 10 complete the Covington and Ohio
railroad One application is from the substan-
tial men of Richmond, Petersburg, Norfolk,
and Lynchburg, whose names are familiar TO
all rs men of business, wealth, and ability. The
other known as the Thompson Company, is
composed Of men who are strangers, residing
beyond the limits of the State. Mr.. JAMES
Lyons addressed the committee in behalf OF
the latter applicants, and urged their claims
until the meeting of the Legislature.
There could not be much hesitation on the
part of the Assembly rs TO whom the charter
should be given, but for one thing-a tnih6
that should be examined with the closest
scrutiny, and that is the peculiar advantages
offered by the bill of the Thompson Company
over that of the other. They offer to give two
millions of stock in the road 10 the State OF
Virginia, with the privilege of voting, and
other advantages.
This is a subject that requires the most care.
full consideration of the legislators OF the
State. If the Thompson Company are men
of substance-able 10 carry on their contract, or
responsible for their failure to GO so, II should
appear to the satisfaction of all; and if not
clearly established, the very opposite may be
fairly inferred The investigation should be
searching. The franchise should never be con-
ferred while a doubt remains.
1t proper to say here that the other COM
pany, composed of men we know, have received
from the millionaires of the North ample
assurances that if they want any money to
carry on the road they can get it there.

No TAX on REAL ESTATE IN Pennsylvania.
Both branches of the Pennsylvania Legisla-
ture have passed the bill repeating the law
imposing q tax on real estate for State pur-
poses. The bill, in thus PXempting real estate
from taxation hereafter, makes il the duty of
the cashier of every bank in the State, whether
incorporated under the laws OF Pennsylvania
or of the United States, to collect annually,
from every stakeholder of said bank tax of
one per centum upon the par value of the stock
held by said stakeholder, and TO pay the same
into the State treasury on or before the lst day
of July in every year. 1t is further provided
that in addition TO the taxes now provided for
by law, every railroad, canal, and transporta-
ton company incorporated by the State, and
not liable to the tax upon income under exist
Ing laws, shall pay tax of three fourths OF
one per centum upon the gross receipts of said
company. The said tax shall be paid semi

THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS.
Congress begins to weary of them: to use
slang phrase, they are 'played out" and the
Judiciary Committee of the House has already
washed its hands of the several proposed
amendments that were before 1t. The latest
one, introduced yesterday, may possibly
squeeze through the House, but its chances In
the Senate are thought 10 be dubious. They
are certain all to be vetoed, and hence the
labor Of Congress is clear waste OF most
valuable time. 1t is perfectly safe to repeat
what have before told you, that every mea-
sure that cannot be squared by the Constitu-
ton, as the President has recently explained
it, is certain either to be pocketed or returned
by him.

INTERNAL REVENUE DECISION.
A copy of partition between certain par
ties, and letter making inquiries respecting
stamp duties thereon, has been received at the
Internal Revenue Bureau. In reply to the
communication, the Deputy Commissioner re-
piled that by the act of June 80, 1854, n stamp
duty is imposed upon all conveyances of
"realty sold.' The partition of lands owned
and held in common is not sale of realty
within the meaning of said act, but is simply a
making out or defining Of the boundaries of
the property belonging to each. Partition
deeds of lands held in common are, therefore,
not subject to stamp duties as conUeyanceS; but
if, as in the case presented by you, they con-
tain covenants of warranty, they should be
stamped as agreements or contracts. When
one of the co-tenants, as in this case, receives
n sum of money for equality of partition, the
transaction is a conveyance to that extent,
and should be stamped accordingly. Cd"
receives two thousand dollars for equality of
partition. This instrument should therefore
bear stamps to the amount of two dollars and
five cents, to cover the warranty of "B 1"
and C.h-ChrORicIe.
