Tax SHOWING or THE FIRST DIsrRIcr.-.
The Ottumwa Courier, referring 10 the same
statement that we published the other day,
says:
The Bloomfield Guard publishes . state
ment from the report of the Secretary Of the
Treasury, whereby it appears that there was
collected in the First Congressional District
on whisky tax for 1865, $l72,SI7 03. for
1866, S226, l24 81 and in 1867, S3sS,23s 80,
showing an increase in the nett revenues
from this source TO the government Of S57,>
ia 03 for the pas. year, for which those
brave soldiers and interchangeable officials, Gen.
eral Weaver. the Assessor, and General
BeIknap, the Collector, are entitled to the full
credit.
Colonel Allison District THE 3D. makes
al equally fattering showing, as will be seen
from the tabular statement below:

A VERY small horse, attached to very
large wagon, grew obstinate on Main street
yesterday, refusing to perform the duty re-
quired of him. He showed decided incl
nation to go backward instead of forward. A
prolonged application Of the lash failed TO
move him in the right direction. A by-stand
er, who probably understood the nature Of
the bruts better than any one else present,
finally succeeded in persuading" him to go.

That Gymnasium Was good thing for the
keokuk juniors. For the seniors IS we'll. il
they had frequented it. Some of them did.
1t was good physical discipline. II was full

the enterprise Of our Young Americans.
Now it is defuncted. Its lights are fed. No
voice Of jolly enjoyment is heard within its
walls. The fixtures and sppurtenances are
to be sold to pay OF its debts and 90 keen i,
out OF Bankruptcy. The Keokuk GymnSsi-
nm lives only in history. Hadn't the young
folks better decree its speedy and enduring
resurrection

A NIcE JoB.-Messrs. l. n. Pearce 4 Son
secured the contract for preparing the books
of the Keokuk Savings Bank. They have
just completed their work the result is elev~
en- ponderous ledgers and cash-books and
blank books, gotten up with such excellence,
care, beauty and completeness, and showing
such thorough workmanship as reflects high
credit on their Bindery, and is proof of the
sound Judgment of the Savings Bank in pat
ronizing home institutions. The largest ledg-
er is master piece Of workmanship, and not
excelled West or East. Messrs. Pearce 4
Son do first rate work, and deserve the high
est degree Of public favor and patronage.

Mr.. PALMER, Of the Register, gives notice
to Library Associations that he has had
placed IN his hands three sets of the Adju,
tant Generals report, 1863 to 1867 inclusive,
which he has been directed to donate to any
well established town or socie.y's library,
which has not already obtained them. We
would suggest to members wboha any spare
copies of these reports, that public libraries
IN their respective districts are among the
best places for their deposit and safe keeping.
The report of 1863 r. vols. will Probably be
out of print at the end of this session.,
