Repeal of Tax on Manufactures.

The bill reported from the Committee
of Ways AMI Means and passed in the
House by l22 yeas to 2 nays, is one of
great importance and likely to be enact
ed. 1t is important to Northern inter-
ests, and therefore viii not fail. The
New York Herald says: "The Senate will
hardly reject measure passed in the
House by an almost unanimous vote, and
it is not likely the President will veto it.
The bill repeats sections ninety four and
ninely-fye Of the act approved June 30,
1864, to provide internal revenue, and
which is generally known as the Internal
Revenue act. The thousand and one ar
ticles which come into daily use, which
are too numerous to state here, will thus
be relieved Of taxation; all, in fact, in.
cluded in the sections mentioned above,
except taxes imposed on gas made Of
coal wholly or in part or Of any other
material; on illuminating, lubricsting or
other mineral oils, or articles the pro.
ducts of di.tillatiou, reaistillatiOn or re-
fining of crude petroleum, or of single
distills,ion Of coal, shale, peat, asphallum
or other bituminous substances; on
wines therein described, aud on snuff
and all the other manufactures Of tobacco,
including cigarettes, cigars and che
roots."

How Long win it be- Endured !

Yesterday morning. about IL clock, q
negro named Robert Brickler, met on the
Three Mile Creek road, Sarah White, a
white girl about sixteen years of age,
knocked her down and violently outraged
her person. Through the assistance of
Officer Wesley Thomas, of Whistler, and
several citizens, Brickler was arrested a
short time after the occurrence, from a
description given by the girl. He was
brought before his victim, who immediate.
ly recognized him as the negro who had
committed the outrage. Brickler was
brought to the city and asprelimiuary ex-
animation was had before Justice Cain.
Brickler acknowledged that he had out
ragged the girl, and he was sent to the
county jail, to await the action of the
Grand Jury.
These outrages by negroes are getting
to be Of too common occurrence, and
summary punishment should in all cases
be visited upon the heads, or rather the
necks, of the guilty parties.-Mobile
Register, March 8.

Throwing us on.

The absorbing and main political issue
in the Western States, is the question Of
payment of the bonds in greenbacks. 1t
overshadows everything else, and there
fore we have no complaint to make that
our friends there should devote their
attention to it. But when they go so far
as to say-as the Illinois State Register
and some others Of the Northern press
do-that the deposition Of the President,
the admission of Alabama by a negro
vote, the domination of the Southern
States by Sickles, Pope or Hancock,
ARE matters of little moment just now"
it seems to us like an exhibition Of an in
ordinate selfshness, somewhat peculiar
TO that section, and like an abandon
ment of all magnanimity, liberal
ity or justice towards the South.
Besides, we doubt the wisdom Of so
selfish a policy. The question Of the
bonds is one Of dollars and cents. That
of the deposition Of the President, iyran-
meal rule and the subjugation under the
Legislative Of the Judicial or Executive
departments Of the government is the
greatest which could be. presented 10 the
American patriot We hope our North
eru friends will think again before they
decide these questions TO be mere side
issues. and the matter Of dollars and
