The perverse Daniel, reporter of the
Enterpriss, stole our regular weekly
mining report of Saturday, as may be
seen by that paper Of yesterday morn
ing. This time be tried TO cover up his
tracks by rewriting several of the items,
changing the wording a little, bat add
ing no new points of information what
ever. By this rewriting arrangement
he only humbugs the printers 10 the
office, but the outside public, easily see
through the swindle, by perceiving that
they have read the same thing 10 the
GOLD HILL News of tho day previous.
By.that way Of doing business, Dan is
enabled to get up u sort Of a mining
report without much skirmishing out.
side Of the office. He would show q
great deal more sense, as well rs o true
understanding Of his business as a
newspaper man, il he would simply
adopt the usual style of courtesy, com
mon to all respectable journals, and
give US the proper credit, which is sim
ply our Just due. He might write what
items he knows about the mines, and
then add our report 10 it, with the
proper credit, aud without rehashins or
other detrimental mutation, thus
he would have a good, reliable, honest,
u~nstoleu report. IL the exertion is too
much for him, however, we freely ohcs
to 60 to the Enterprise Office every Sat-
urday evening and do it for him,
without charging a cent for it.
We would not feel quite so sensitivsly
tenacious 10 this matter il we did not
see our stolen reports copied by some Of
our California contemporaries, and cred
tied to the Enterprise. 1t is o little
rough, this beating the bush for some-
body else to catch the bird-not only
rough, but internally low-minded aud
unprincipled sheep stealing is more
honorable. Dan may think it smart,
but We shall show him different. lie
may think he makes by-it, but he shall
discover the contrary. He may think
there is no hereafter, but be shall
change his opinion. He may be able to
stand it, but we shall try, and see him
out, We gave him fair warning in our
nice little item of a week ago /; and this
defiant repetition of the same offence is
a virtual declaration Of war. All right,
old boy (; war goes ; we're on ii.

DECISION IN REGARD TO THE IHCoME-TAx
LAWN the oaso Of tho United States
against William Il. Frost, indictment for a
false income return for 1866, the jury have
rel armed verdict Of not guilty. II appear
ing that Mr.. Frosts return for that year
showed an income Of about $10.O00 The
Government claimed that thcro ought to
have boon returned about $4,000 in addi-
ton. The defence set up was that this sum
was exempted from taxation as bad debts
Tho case turned on law point. Judge
Drummond decided that man was not
bound TO re'E.n ae income debts OF promises
to pays but was only required 70 return The
gains, profits, or income of his business ac-
tusily received, Hc thought that IL would
be unreasonable on tho part Of the Govern
ment to require man to pay tax on q
promise TO pny or nero debt, when ncith-
er might be collected, especially as the par
ty would have no recourse upon tho Govern
mont to recover the amount 80 paid. Tho
Court instructed the jury that they would
; be justified in finding the party not guilty
under tho opinion which he had intima,cd,
although he desired so to qualify it as to
state that if person had note or an 40
| count due him, and he neglected 10 collect
| II when 1t maturcd, or refused the money
when rendered, or if no received olhor pro.
perty inexchange for tho sum due and In
