Rev. j. ID. Liggett, pastor of the 1st
Congregational church of Leavenworth,
on Tuesday evening, on the leave TAX
ing of their church building which is
now closed for repairs and enlarge
ment, gave an interesting resume of the
history of the church for the past nine
wears in which he has been its pastor.
He said the present building was erect
ed eight years ago and cost then $1,000,
and the building, with the lots, cost
$500. During the eight years the
church had cost them seventeen thous-
and dollars; he would be sorry, in
deed, to sell it 4Or that--and as the
property now stands, they were out on
iy 5000. He said the congregation
and society were worth one million
dollars-nearer one million and quar-
ter dollars, than one million.
He spoke in reference to the condi-
ton of the country-of the two con-
tending parties; he believed II ordaln-
ed of God that Grant and Colfax should
be elected, and if it was necessary he
would have no hesitancy in turning his
pulpit into political stumping block
He did not think it necessary, as the
people had already made mp their
minds to elect those two great patriots,
Grant and Colfax. He said he only al
lUded to the matter to let the people
know where he stood-that he was still
earnestly fighting for the Union. Ina'
the two parties were the same to-day
as they were during the war-theFe
was no difference!

IMPARTIAL SUFFRAGE.

The Impartial Suffrage League of this
county held . meeting at the court
house on last Saturday evening, and ap-
pointed Messrs. s. G Brown. and E. B.
Peyton delegates to the State Conven-
ton held at Topeka on Tuesday. The
meeting certainly manifested sensible
and liberal spirit, quite different from
that of one or two disreputable dema-
gogucs, who only bring trouble and
disgrace upon every cause they advo-
cate.
Unfortunately, owing to an injury
caused by the fall of Elder Brown from
carriage, and the illness of Mr.. Peyton,
the county failed to be represented.
The following were the resolutions
adopted at the meeting as reported by
Prof. III: B. Norton, Secretary pro tenn.
| ResOiced, That we, members of the
Lyon County Impartial Suffrage League
being convinced of the justice of oul
cause, and therefore confident of its
speed triumph, do hereby recommend
that the question of Impartial Suffrage
be again presented to the people at the
earliest feasible period.
ReSoEced, That, in our opinion, the
interests of the cause would be best pro
NOTED by presenting the Two PROPOSE
tions at separate times.
ResOtced, That we are opposed to tn,
nominate on of third candidate for TIT
Lieutenant Governorship.
Since the above was put in type W,
learn that the Topeka convention s0tsel
concluded to adjourn without maxim;
any nominations.

The determination of the people to
secure peace and prosperity to the coun-
try by electing Grant and Colfax grows
stronger every day. The revolutionary
scheme of the leading rebels of the
South, endorsed as it is by the New
York platform and the letter of Frank
Blair, is but the signal for another civil
war. The people who consider the eff.
feet of such contest, are resolved tc
nip it in the bud, and this they know
can be done effectually by defeating the
Democratic party. That's the remedy
for the national troubles.

All the cry ofthe Democratic stumpers
is taxes, taxes. Click labors hard i'll the
regular "Oily Cannon" Democratic
style to make the farmers believe they
are bearing the burdens.
No farmer pays dollar of taxes to
the Government, unless he has clear
income of over one thousand dollars,
over and above repairs, &c. The farmer
who has that much income, will pay his
taxes cheerfully. In this county there
are not fifty farmers who have even an
income tax to pay. But how will it be
if the Democrats get into power? By
the fourth plank of the National Demo
cratic platform, they are pledged sub
stantially to reduce the taxes of the
bondholders by putting the taxes on the
pillow holders. That was the object OF
the resolution. 1t was put in by Bel
mont and other Democratic leaders who
want the taxes on their great incomes
distributed over all property-such as
lands, horses, cattle, hogs, produce, ev-
erything that a farmer has. This is the
plain state of the case.

THE SOLDIERS NATIONAL CONVEY.
TION.

= The soldiers convention at Philadel-
phia last week was a grand affair. The
city was full of people for several DAYS.
from all parts of the Union. The en-
thusiasm of the Tanners and other or.
CARNATIONS, and of the whole people. in
fact, was never equaled. The Union
people of the city prepared free dinner
Tor 2o,ooO soldiers, while the houses
were illuminated and the streets were
strung with flags in the day time and
transparencies at night. Many of the
leading generals of the nation marched
in the professions and took part in the
exercises. This will have good efrect
on the Key Stone State, and we conf
IDENTIFY expect that she will give good
account of herself at the coming cleo

The late fight on Dry Fork of the Re-
publican between fifty scouts command
ed by Col. Forsyth and four hundred
Indians, was one of the severest on rec
ord. The whites took refuge on an is
land and were completely surrounded
by the red devils. 1t. Beecher, Sergeon
Moore and two more were killed, and
Col. Forsyth and fifteen others wound
cd, the Col. severely. The fight was
persistent. Thirty-five Indians were
killed, and many of their ponies. Men
crawled for miles on the ground to get
outside of the Indian lines to go after
achievements. The men were finally
rescued, and Col. Forsyth is now in Fit.

PROCEEDINGS OF
THE
colt VIAL COU Gill
FOR ST. CROIX.

Continuation of the meeting of 2Sth Decb'r.
The 5th cr~own-member (Walker) adopted
this proposal, observing, that as far as his
knowledge goes, the legal rate of interest on
loans in landed property neither America nor
other places is higher than 6 per Cent and,
in consequence of a remark by the 4h member
for Christiansted's country district (McWilliam),
added, that in all other money-tranSactiOns at
the said places the legal rate of interest was
T per Cent, if not otherwise fixed.
AS the amendment of the 5th crown-member
was not adopted by any other member, it was
considered as dropped.
His Excellency the Governor had no objee-
tons to the amendment of the LIST member for
Frederksted's town WhereupOn he explained
the amendments introduced by him.
The amendments were then put to the vote
in accordance with the Rules of Business s IL,
thus
No. l was adopted with Is votes against /.
l of the draft with the amendment there
upon put to the yete and was adopted with 10
votes against J..
No. 2 had been withdrawn.
No. 3 adopted with Is votes against /.
S 2 and 3 of the draft with the amendments
were adopted with Is votes against L.
S. A, 5 and 6 were then put to the vote and
adopted with IS votes against l.
with the same number or votes the C0uncll
resolved that the draft with the amendments
be referred for the 3rd discussion.
The 2nd member for Christiansted's country
Ndistrict (Ratclitfe) observed, that he considered
Me urgency with which this matter has been
pressed unnecessary and to no purpose, and
would on that account not vote.
5, Memorial from taxpayers in Frederiksted
that measures be adopted in order that they
may paw their taxes there.
The memorial was read.
The 2nd member for Frederiksted's town
(Faber), who had adopted the memorial as his
own Notwithstanding its form, stated the incOn-
v~enience to which those paying smaller amounts
were put to by not being able to pay the tax
on the spot this had in a measure been obvi-
ated through the kindness Of individuals, bnt
this cannot always be relied upon; he could
not state positively in what way a change
could be effected to the purpose without incur
ring expenses to the community, being well
aware that the collection of the taxes could not
be imposed upon any one, but was of the opin-
ion, that if the Sheriff or the Collector of the
Customs be applied to ON the subject, they
would not refuse, and that in the event of
vacancy in either of these Offices this may be
made the duty of the of the official appointed.
He had thought of another manner, by letting
the Tax Commission be a couple of days in the
town Of Frederiksted to collect the the. The
principal aim of the emorial is however, that
the Coloniai Council be requested to suppor+
