The SINGING AT TRINITY.-The
singing last night, and on Tuesday
evening. is deserving of much moro
than the mere passing notice given it
in the reports Of the Convention.
While the singing as a whole, was
excellent, and even grand, the solos
of Mrs. Coolidge were unusually
sweet and clear, proving, by the effect
it produced on those who heard her.
that ''the sweet singers of Israel were
a powerful agency" for advancing
religion, as was said on Tuesday even.
ing.
The solo, Z" For 1 know that my
Redeemer liveth." was enough of
itself to awaken a thrill in the coolest
and most indifferent hearts. That
and the quartette, " Beautiful Angel"
which closed the exercises last night,
were rendered with unusual taste and
feeling; and if the power of music
can assist in the work of religious
elevation, Trinity is especially blest
in the possession of assistance, far
beyond what is ordinarily found.

The word taxation" has an unpleas
ant sound to very many, perhaps Z
most men, for it signifies q payment O
money rigidly collected from each prop
erty holder, for which he receives no di
! rect return in dollars and cents. and 70
which he has only to ignore the ben eft
of civil government--laws and their en-
| forccment-or to think they ought to b'
realized without effort or cost, to thinf
he gets no return at all. But ii is very
different kind OF taxation from this, tha

Inland townships. ia this county. arc
called upon 10 decide for or against by
notices from their respective boards OF
| Trustees, herewith duly published. by
these notices, as any one can assure him
self by their pcrusal, no funds that may
he raised by tho proposed tax can bc
drawn and expended until the railroad
to the aid Of which they are extended is
completed and in operation through the
community interested in and voting
upon each of the several township lev
les. This being the case, there is to every
Taxpayer not only q prospect, bu. a GER
tainty oft speedy return in actual value
Of more than all lie il taxed. This is
evident, and can DC denied Icy no Que.
because by the time tho funds accruing
from the proposed tax are made payable
by the terms Of the levy, every cent of
real property thus faxed will have al
ready appreciated, not five, but five
times five per ccntum at the very least !:
and more than this, frcisbts will bc 80
much reduced, markets brouglI. so much
nearer, and business Of all kinds receive
such All impetus that the actual benefit to
the different localities taxcd-proyiding
the conditions insuriug the payment Of
the tax are fuliillcd-wiIl be simply in
calcu!ab1c
There can DC but one class of persons

saying, That was just what he didn't
want. lie wished his land wasn't worth
five dollars an acre and would never be
higher"
To such. nothing can be said. They
should go live with the Digger indians
where land isn't worth stalking out
But all who regard solid and actual rise
