The Congressional Globe for
the last session has come ND
from the printers. 1t makes
seven volumes, which is two
more than any session has re-
quired since the war begun.
One volume consists entirely
of speeches which were never
delivered, but for which the
House gave leave to print.

AYERS PILLs.-Our people
have been experimenting with
these, and are under the i'm
preston that a great discovery
has been made, provided that
old rule in medicine is correct
that, "the hair of the dog is
good for its bite" They have
found that moderate doses of
these pills will give one the
tiux, and, consequently, will
cure that disease, where one
has it naturally.

PURPLE INK.-We caution
the public not to use this splen-

now often sold. Writing done
with it will entirely fade out in
a few weeks, if exposed to the

house, have faded out.

LEVEE TAX.-It is strange
that our State government
shonld persist in taxing the
whole State to build and re-
pair levees that only profit a
very small portion oft. Doubt
less the argument used by the
advocates of the tax is, that by
keeping up good levees the
property of the State will be,
Increased in the aggregate, so
that the tax payers, after a lit
tie while, would be relieved,
not only from the burden of
the levee tax, but also from
other taxes sufficient to remu-
nerate them for past levee tax
es collected.
This is entirely too far-fetch-
ed. We, the poor men of the
hills, pay u tax to benefit the
rich men of the bottoms, and
our remuneration is simply to
be the privilege of living in a
richer community.
1t may look reasonable that
the taxes in rich nations should
be less than in poor ones, but
the facts are otherwise. And
we may rest we'll assured that
however fourishing Louisiana
may become, our taxes will not
be lessened ON that account:
and, to prove this, we have but
to cite the great nations of the
earth and our richer States.
Speaking of taxes, it is hard
for US to understand WHY we
pay an Internal Improvement
tax and also an Interest tax
All internal improvements that
we are aware of were assisted
by the issuing of bonds; and,
consequently, the interest tax
ought to be sufficient, unless
those bonds are now to be paid
up.
Our people are nearly as we'll
taxed as they were the last two
years of the war. Here is a list
of the State burdens: State tax
proper, four mills on the dollar;
school tax, two mills; internal
improvement, two mills; levee,
two mills; interest, two mills;
parish tax proper, four mills;
road and bridge tax, and tax
to pay back Indebtedness, to
be levied. Added to all this,
are State and parish licenses.
On the whole, then, we may
safely put our State burdens at
two cents on the dollars worth
of property. On an average,
property does not make to its
owners more than five per cent.

government.

Provisions of the New Banking
and Currency Bill IntrOd Iced
by Mr. Garfield.
WAsH1NGToN, April 29.-General
Garfield, Chairmau of the Commit
tee on Banking and Currency, re-
ported to the House to oday, a bill
to increase banking facilities. 1t
contains twelve sections, and pro-
vides for the issue OF $95, 900, 600
of national currency to States hav-
ing less than their proportion, and
for redemption and cancellation Of
S45, 100000 Of three per cent GER
tificates, and for cancellation of
S40,O00,00O Of legal tenders; also,
that the additional currency shall
be secured by a deposit of four and
a half per cent bonds, exempt from
taxation, and that when $50, 900, 200
Of the new issue have been taken
up all banks shall receive the same
four and a half per cent bonds as
security for stheir circulation. 1t
provides for three banking on q
gold basis, and for redistribution of
S25, 100000 of national bank notes,
taking that amount from States hay
ing an excess, and distributing it to
States which are deficient. But this
redistribution shall not take place
until the S95, 100000 provided for
shall have been issued. It reduces
taxes on circulation one half on all
banks that secure all their circula.
ton by the new bonds. The bill
was ordered printed and recon
mitted.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
Boiler ExplOsion-Two Persons
Killed.

Our citizens were startled about 3
o'clock, on Friday afternoon last,
by the announcement that the boiler
in the steam saw mill belonging to
James NJ Bunce. about four miles
east of this place, on the Marys-
vile road, had exploded an hour
before, killing Mr.. Buncc and fatal
ly iniuring Mrs. Bunce, SO that she
would not probably survive many
hours. DIR. Munson was called to
the scene OF disaster, and found
Mrs. b. still living, but with no hope
of recovery. She fingered till about
seven O'Clock Saturday evening suf-
fering great pain from the terrible
scalding she had received. They
were both buried on Sunday last, a
large concourse of people gathering
to witness the sad scene. They
leave four children, the eldest some
IA years of age. The particulars of
this sad affair as we learn them are
as follows:
Mr.. Runce and an assistant named
-- were at work in the saw mill
when the truck on which logs were
hauled up, got off the track and the
saw was stopped to enable them to
arrange it again. 1t took more time
to do this than they at first antici-
pated, and all this while steam was
accumulating in the boiler. For
some reason Mrs. Bunce was called
from the house to the mill, and at
the time of the explosion was near
enough to the boiler to be scalded by
the steam. just as they were ready
to start the saw again the boiler ex
ploded, making terrible havoc with
the timbers of the mill, and carving
Mr.. Bunce through one side of it,
killing him almost instantly. He
was much bruised about the head
and shoulders, evidently the result
Of contact with the side Of the mill
where he went through it. The as
sistant was somewhat injured, but
not seriously, although his escape
looked almost like a miracie-as the
timbers and brick were scattered all
about him-and he was struck by
some of them. His position was
at the west end, up the log carriage,
while Mr.. Bunce stood at the east
end. Mrs Bunce was below near
the boiler and was overpowered and
scalded by the hot steam. She was
able to converse when DR. Munson
arrived there and was conscious for
four or five hours after the accident.
She requested the DR.. to notify
Daniel Bunce--a brother of MIR.
Bunce-of Sacramento, California,
and request him and come and take
charge of the children and proper
ty. She also expressed a wish to
be buried at the same hour with her
husband.-[ Kenton Republican,

The EundjnQ Question.

Gen. Spinner has written another
letter on the Funding Bill and the Ma
tional Banks, in which he says:
You say for your bank that "she
acknowledges that the Government
has the power to compel her to sub
stitute a four, four and q half, or
five per cent. bond for these" mean
ing the bonds of 1861, but she is
unable yet to discover how it can be
done in honor, justice, and good
faith" You seem, from your stand
point, to SEE that great injustice is
about to be done your bank. The
people will, however, be apt to take
your own statement of the case, and,
after doing q little ciphering, will
say to you that their view of the
case is that your bank bought these
bonds at Ill in currency at time
when gold stood at 2O1, which would
be equal to 554 in gold that you
have since then received back again
on the nominal amount for interest
thirty per cent. in gold; that you
bought these stocks with your own
circulating notes, on which you have
not paid one cent of interest, and
that you can now sell these bonds
above par in gold, and that should
You SO sell them you will receive
and have received on the $50, 900 OF
United States stock Sd purchaced,
held, and sold by you S45,5 in
gold; for which you paid, five years
ago, in then gold prices, s1S.425,
thereby making clear profit, less
duties and taxes, on this single in
vestnent of over $27 900.
Now, there are few people who
would not like to have tho Govern
ment g honor" them with just such
" justice and good faith The
wonder is that any one should be
to find fault with such treat
mens. 1t is doubted whether any
man would. But you
speak for the bank, and banks have
been said to be soulless, and the case
under consideration does not go
very far in disproving the saying.
To-day a gentleman said in my
hearing that not a single corpo-
rails guard could be found voting
for the Funding bill now before the
House unless the section in regard
TO the banks should be striken out"
I don't believe 1t, and ] won't be-
licve 1t until I see it and then we
shall see what we shall see-what
he people will have to say on the
subject. Being a bank stockholder,
NY interests are identical with others
who, like me, have an interest in
National Banks. / am, therefore,
n no sense the enemy of these
on the contrary. | would
lave them continued to live and
prosper; and it is for this very rea-
son that I would have them cheer
'ully give their assent to the best
for final settlement that
rill probably again be offered for
heir acceptance.
