The duties on incomes arc payable

The income must be rcckoncd for the
year ending December 81, 1865, and
the tax Is 8 per cent. on all sums be-
tween 5000 aud $1,000, and 10 per
cent ON the excess over $4,000. The
Deductions permitted arci I. The
sum Of 5000 from all incomes; 2. All
National, State, county, and munici-
pal taxes paid within the year I'm

merD 3. The amount paid for rent,
or the rental value Of any homestead
occupied by the taxpayer or his iami-
ly, in his own right or the right of
his wife; 4. The amount paid for
usual or ordinary repairs, taking the
average of the preceding five years.
These are all the deductions that can
be made.
The income tax is a lien upon
property, if not paid within the time
fixed by law, and the collectors are
invested with full powers to take
legal proceedings for distraint and
collection. The proper observance
of the time and manner OF payment
will therefore save the taxpayers
much trouble.

A QUEER FiGHT.-A novel pu-
gilistic encounter took place on Mon
day, ut West Troy, New York. Three
partners in the bounty jumping bust
ness quarreled over some spoils, when
two Of them abused the third ono to
draw him into n fight, but he listened
stoically for n while, when an idea
struck him, and he said to his assail-
ants: EITHER one Of you iellars is
morn a match for me; but If you
will strap yourselves together, tying
hand each behind you, III fight
you just 10 accommodate you" The
novelty Of the proposition was toe
strong to be resisted, and the three
adjourned to n barn TO " fight il out
on that line" followed by a consid-
erable crowd Of spectators.
The men were strapped together,
and their right and left arms pin
ioned. The single "man-of-war''
sailed in beautifully; being in light
trim he out manenvercd the heavier
craft completely. lie was now be-
fore them, and behind them, and moi
unfrcquently made their heads yio-
lently collide, one with another. Iu
fact, he had got them just where he
wanted them, and where he had evi.
IDENTIFY been silently concocting 10 gel
them, when they were so loud IN
threats and abuse. His victory wal
complete. In about FIVE minutes h'
touched the loud-mouthed gentlemen
off most elegantly. and having salts
ged his martial ardor, departed highl,
clated with the success which at,ende,
his original and happy idea.

with him search out a rev home

A PRiScELy DIVERSION. - An
amusing story Is now going the round
Of the Paris clubs. II appears that,
a short time ago, a foreign prince
made heavy bet that he would be
arrested by the police without CON-
hitting any offence whatever, or in
any way provoking the authorities.
The bet having been taken by n
member of the Imperial Club, the
prince went to ono Of the most aris-
iocrntic cqtes in Paris, dressed in a
battered hat, a ragged blouse, and
boots all in holes, and, sitting down
at one Of the tables, ordered a cup oi
coffee. The walters, however, paid
no attention 10 20 suspicious-looking
customer upon which the prince
put his hand in his pocket and showed
them q bundle Of bank-notes. The
proprietor then ordered the coffee "a
be served, sending, meanwhile, to th'
nearest police-station for n sergeHt-de-
riiie. The prince was duly arrested
and taken to the commissary Of po.
lice, where he stated who he was, ant
was aftcrward taken to the gentle.
man with whom he made the bet b
prove his identity. A similar stor,
was told at Vienna. some time ago
of a Hungarian Prince Sander
NJ. de Metternich's son-in-law, who
in order to make his arrest quit
sure, took the bank-notes out Of hi
boots.-Home Journal.

CorToS LANDS GoTSo BACK TO A

CorToS LANDS GoISo BACK TO A
WILDERSEss.-A correspondent Of
the Mobile Advertiser, upon whose
judgment the editor relies, gives a
gloomy picture Of the future. He
says:
What are the facts in regard to a
general cultivation Of cotton, and re-
turn of negroes to. field labor? A
large proportion Of the field hands
are dead. Another large number
have left the cotton growing States.
The cotton producing lands in the
bottoms will not be in cultivation this
year nor the next; TO a great degree
they are going back into the wilder
ness. In no part Of the country is a
large proportion Of the lands likely
TO be planted In cotton; much even
Of the uplands in Alabama and Mis-
sissippi will not be planted at all. A
great number Of the negroes arr
about the towns and villages, with nc
sort Of intention Of returning to the
plantations. Another fact known
only 10 those who arc making th,
effort to make cotton under the pres.
ent aspect, Is the general opposition
Of the negro women TO field labor
The more sensible Of the men see and
feel the necessity Of labor In the cot.
ton field, but there is a settled oppo'
sition on the part Of the women Il
not 20 to the field again. They wan
to 90 into society and have a piano
The women are the main cotton
pickcr.
When the negroes made contract
to make cotton, Il was very cold an'
wet; they had no houses TO live in
no provisions to live on; they wer
disappointed about tho divisions 0
lands aud mules. They said, well,
, we have 10 work, we might ~ wei
make 0 contract. They were TO
great degree compelled to make a
engagement to work. But when tn
ths prassare If work In the heat

How no DO Up SHIRT BosoMs.-
We have often heard ladies express
desire, says an exchange, to know
by what process the fine gloss obser-
vablc on new linens, shirt bosoms
ETC., is produced; and in order to
crafty them, we submit the follow
ing receipt for making gumarabit
starch: Take two ounces fine gum
arabic powder, put il into a pitcher
and pour on il n pint or more ol
boiling water; according to the de-
gree Of strength you desire; and
then having covered il, let il set all
night. In the morning pour care
fully from the dregs, into a clean
bottle, cork it and keep il for use
A tablespoonful Of this gum water
stirred into n pint Of starch, mad,
in the usual manner, will give :,
either white or printed lawns a look
of ncwness, when nothing else car
restore them after washing. Much
diluted, Il Is also good for thin mus.
