In the House of Commons, Hon. Robert
Love- chancellor of the exchequer, submit
ted the annual budget in explanation of
which, he said the ministry proposed to deal
separately with general expenditures and the
Abyssinian war. The estimates made by
his predecessor in Office, the Hou. Geo. w.
Hunt, were .e73,O00, 900, while the receipts
were e72, 500, 900, leaving deficit of
E500, 900, which has to be met this year.
He (Mr. Lowe estimated the expenditures
of the present fiscal year Mt f6S, $50, 900,
showing reduction of CO, $50, 900 from the
estimated expenditure Of last year, which
was gained chiefly in the admiralty and war
Office. He estimated the revenue of the
present fiscal year ut $1,000, 900, so if the
Abyssinian war were not provided for, the
surplus would be IA, 100000. The whole
expense of the Abyssinian war was co, OOO,-
900, Of which CT 900, 600 were expended in
India. The country had still 1000, 900 of
this amount to pay The surplus of the
present year would balance the Abyssinian
and general deficit. Under these circum-
stances, the chancellor thought it desirable
to raise further sum by taxation. He re-
garded the present means of collection as
expensive and unsatisfactory, and said its
only warrant was in its antiquity. He pro-
posed to collect assessed taxes by means of
| excise licenses, granted at the commence
ment OF each year, on returns to be fur
nished by tax payers. An income tax is to
be collected in the same manner. By these
measures, G3, $50, coo will be brought in the
financial year, in addition to the amount
heretofore collected. He proposed reduc-
ton of a penny upon the income tax; to
repeal the import duty on corn, aud fire in
surance duty, and to re-arrange several
smaller items. This will give decrease of
G3, ,000,0 QUO, and leave nearly $4,000. 900
clear surplus. Mr.. Hunt, late chancellor,
said, in reply to Mr.. Howe, that the reduc-
of the late government in making the army
and navy moro efficient. After long and
desultory conversation, the usual leave to
bring in q budget, was agreed to.

Cotton Not Taxed


A day or two ago we observed in North
Carolina contemporary the statement that
cotton was still subject to n tax of two and
3 half per cent. In view of removing
doubts upon the subject, we observe that a
letter was addressed by the commercial
editor of the Men.phis Apalaac7se to the Sc
eretary OF the Treasury, to which he re-
= eeived the ss:,,S;;oined reply. which we re-
publish. It settles tho matter, we presume,
so far as it can be settled by the authority
of the Treasury Department The follow
ing is the letter which was elicited:
N TREASURY DEPARTMENT,
OFFIUE INTERNAL REVENUE,
WASHINGTON, January 26, 1869.
SIRi Your letter addressed to .he Secre.
tary Of the Treasury has been referred to
this Office for answer In reply, have to
say that the Act Of February 3, 1868, abol-
lshing the tax, on cotton, is so clear as to
admit of NO doubt as to its meaning and
effect. The 1lsnBuage Of the Act is: 'sThat
all cotton grown in the United States after
the year 1867 shall be exempt from internal
tax" This operates to exempt, not only
the crop Of 1868. but the crops of all sue
sceeding yenfs, until the Act shnll be re.
peafed or modified by subsequent legisla-
ton. Very res spectfully,
- Fl. .A.sROLLlNS, Commissioner

thusiasm broke forth. The host and wife
and the young officer cast themselves into

nation was found. Alas!it was destined to
become a hymn of terror The unhappy
Dledrich, o few months afterwards, marched
to the scaffold at thesound of the notes, first
uttered at his hearth, from the heart of his
friend and the voice Of his wife. The new
song, executed some days afterwards pub
lcly ut Strasbourg, flew from town to town
through all the orchestras NIarseilles
adopted it to be sung at the open
ing and adjournment Of the clubs, and
hence its name. The mother of De Lisle, a
loyalist and q religious person, alarmed at
the reverberation of her sons name. wrote
to him: "What is the meaning of this revo.

scaffold.
There is no national air that will compare
with it in sublimity and power; it embraces
the soft cadences full of the PEASANTS home,
and the stormy clamor of silver and steel

The following letter from General O. O.

dressed to him by Hon. O. H. Dockery,

status of the Freedmen's Bureau:

DEAR SIR: have received your note, and

AS to the work of education among "the

closed up all divisions of the Bureau, ex-

this district. l think larger expenditure
of money has been made in aid of school
buildings in cities and villages than would
have advised with my present experience.
Now that prejudice is giving way, the edu-
cational work can be extended more than
heretofore into the country with COMPARE

Cnbhn difficulty, to open negotiations with
the navy department for the purchase of n
certain few OF our monitors, and have asked
the lowest price which the Government will
receive for them Secretary Borie and Ad-

overtures, and have thus far declined to en-
terrain them. Admiral Hoff communicates
to the Government the fact that tho Spa

arrested American citizens in Cuba. upon
the mere suspicion of their completely with
the rebels. Frequently they are held for a
long time without trial, and when their
cases come up they are discharged for want

common with the Spanish authorities that
Admiral Hoff deems it his duty to call the
attention OF the Government to the fact, in
the hope that some action may be taken to
prevent such arrests in future.

A REcIrE WORTH ONE THOUSAND Doll
LARs.-The Ohio CuHioator says the follow.
ing recipe is worth $1,000 to every house
keeper:
Take one pound of sal soda and a half
pound OF unslacked lime, and put them in
u gallon of water, boil twenty minutes, let it
stand till cool, then drain of and put in q
small jug or jar; soak your dirty clothes
over night, or until they are wet through,
then wiring them and rub on plenty of soap,
and in one boiler of clothes we'll covered
with water, add one tea cup-full of the
washing fluid; boil half an hour briskly,
then wash them thoroughly with suds;
rinse, and your clothes will look better than
by the old way q Of washing twice before
boiling. This is an invaluable recipe, and
every poor, tired woman should try It.
