A NORMAL SCHOOL-We see it stated
that new Normal School is to be estab-
ished at Emporium, Cameron county, Pa.
Clearfeld county is in the same Normal
District with Cameron, and but for the tar
diness or indifference of our citizens this
High School would have been located at
this plsce-the authorities having intimated
their intentions Of doing SO, providing proper
encouragement was extended.

TAXES IN rENNEssEE THIS YEAR

The Brownlow administration is much
more costly than most ST our people i'm
agine. The tax on property last year
was twenty-five cents on the 800; this
year it is forty cents. The gross tax on
property and polls last year amounted to
81, 2S6 SS5. The increase in the tax N
property will bring this Up to about 81
@ 1900. Add the tax on privileges, and
the taxpayers will find that they will be
called upon for something more than
three millions. the Union ana AHsri-
can asks, where does all this money go
TO? 1t requires only about s quarter Of s
million to pay the interest on the State
debt proper, and the balance, nearly
three millions, goes to support the
Brownlow administration and its pen
stoned minions. But the State taxes,
enormous as they are, are not Ell the
people OF Tennessee have to pay. Their
county and municipal taxes have been
largely increased to psy the salaries and
expenses Of tie new Offices that have
been created for the benefit Of eleemosy-
nary Radicals. 1t will thus be seen
that we are ss heavily taxed as We can
bear, and yet are not permitted q voice
in the assessment of these taxes or their
disbursements.

Guy the smountin Tennessee bank nOtes,
which he can get for thirty cents on the

he need not go to that houb.e that he
NAV lust pay him the same amount IN

If the notes in the bank were paid up out
OF the circulstiOp OF the bank, the CUT

is tone now, the outstanding circulation
will become worthless. THINK this sys-
TEN is wrong and robbery. This state
ment, 1 am told, can be proved By sppii-
cation to Mr.. Thomas 3. Mari, or sDy
other broker in Nashville. This same
Kind Of settlement vas made with VIM.
Spence, two years since.
The bank held about one hundred thou
sand dollars in STATE bonds that Spence
had left as collateral security for loaned
money. After the bank tailed, Spence
proposed to pay what ne owed in the
notes of the branch, they being then
worth about 40 cents on the dollar.
1 am told that Mr.. Watson told Spence
that he could pay him S35i 900 in green
backs and take has bond, which amounted
to $4,000, but he al he would com
promise with him, 8 they wanted some
~greenbacks TO pay OF the employees of
the bank, and the State officers gener-
ally.
This thing should all be exposed. l am
informed that MIR. Watson told 3 friend
of his Of this last transaction.
