40 Tax Payers.

1t has been the general impression,
among most all classes of citizens, that
all Taxes were not due, or that tax pay
ers had until the 3lst day OF March in
which to settle with the Collector. BY
referring to the order of j. II. BERRY, Aud
itor of State, viii be noticed that the time
limited for the payment of taxes on
personal property expired on the 2Sth
day of February, yesterday. To avoid
costs, and expense, we would advise all
who have not settled with the Collector,
to do so at once. The Collector, or n
Deputy, may be found every day, during
this week at the Court House. The fol.
lowing is from the order Of Mr.. Berry
'" Under Section 90, and the extensions
granted by the Auditor under See. los Of
the act aforesaid, personal property upon
which the taxes of 1869 shall not have
been paid by the 2Stll day of February,
1870, are delinquent under the law, and
the Collector or his Deputy shall imme-
diately thereafter proceed to distrain suf-
fcient goods and chattels belonging to
the person charged with taxes levied on
personal property, to pay the taxes upon
the personal property of such person
and the costs toat mayaccrue, The Col
lector has until the 10th day Of April,
1870, to make such distraints and sales,
at which time he is to settle with the
County Clerk rs required under section
9Sn tt.. ..F .. ..

THE INDIAN COUNTRY.

The following is the resolution intro
duced in the L. S. Senate. making inqui-
nv into the high handed Operations of
Supervisor Mcdonald in the Indian coun-
try, on our border. The resolution is
pertinent, and will, probably settle the
question whether the Indians are subjects
of the operation of Internal Revenue
law or not-and whether there is any
respect to be paid to sacred treaties:
WHEREAS, the 10th article of the Cher
okee Treaty of July 10, 1860, stipulates
in these words :. 4e.a.
Every Cherokee and freed person re
sidcnt in the Cherokee Nation shall have
the right to sell any products of his farm
including his or her live stock, or any
merchandise or manufactured products,
and TO ship and drive the same to market
without restraint, paying any tax thereon,
which is now or may be levied by the
United States on the quality sold outside
of the lndian Territory" tH..
Therefore,, Resoleed, Jy tie Senate Of
the United .Stutes, That the President be
requested, if not inconsistent with the
public interests, to inform the Senate II
any officer of the Government has cX-
tended the Revenue Laws over the Chero-
kee Nation, or has attempted to enforce
the payment Of taxes by Cherokees on
products manufactured by them in the
Cherokee Nation and sold within the In
dian Territory, aa , ...|.'.

EDITOR OF Press i We had supposed
there would not be dissenting vote on
the question of Crawford county sub
scribinp TO the stock of this road. We
learn, however, now, that there are one
or two persons, who wanted a CONTRACT
on this road and who seem to think now
that they can't get it on their terms, who
now declare that they will oppose this
matter, and are cndcavoring to make
political issue of it. We ask all voters
of this county to study their best interest
in this matter-there is and can be no po-
litcal issue on the question. 1t is evil
dent to every one that it is to onr inter
est to vote " FOR SUBSCRIPTION" and we
hope there is no sane man who VIII be
led by any man or men who would op-
pose such measure on such grounds,
There is declaration in Holy Writ,
which proves true in our day and time,
that if = the blind lead the blind both will
fall in the ditch" This man is certainly
blind in this matter. And who and what
is he, that the whole people of this coun-
ty should feel themselves bound to resent
what he considers bad fathro HIM lfhe
SOLD HIMSELF in the Legislature and made
a bad contract, or dealt with those who
do not pay the stipulated price, that is
his misfortune. 1t would seem that dis
crction should dictate, the keep this mat
ter to himself He will, we imagine,
have to get up something better than this
to use against this question, to be able to
carry out the threat, ''that if he did not
get a contract this county should not
take stock in the Road" 1t would seem
that the g sAFTNEss,' which DANIEL eX.
hibits in this matter would require that
he should 90 through the firery furnace

EDITOR pkEss:--T
Sir: have Just read Proclamation
of Maj. Andersons, ordering an election
to be holden at the several precincts in
this county, on the 14th of March. The
question naturally presents itself, who
are entitled to vote at said election? Pre-
vious to the war there was no ambiguity
about the matter, now it is dircrent-last
election for State officers, no body voted
but the Radicals. The Major says moth.
ing about registering this time-I would
like to know if it is to be free thing, or
if the intention is for the Radicals to do
the voting. Should Democrats be allow.
cd to vote | would like to know what sort
of oath they have got to swallow-do
not misunderstood me, properly speak
ing | am neither a Radical nor Demo
crat, but sort of q pizerinctum--and as
/ have not enjoyed the luxury of voting
lately would like to have chance this
time, provided the oath is not too big for
my gullet, Very respectfully,

Tie PURITY OF IcE.--In addition to
the fact that ice is lighter than water,
there is another curious thing about it
which many persons do not perhaps
know, viz its purity. A lump of ice
melted will become pure distilled water
Water in freezing turns out Of it all that
is not water, salt, air, coloring matter,
and all impurities Frozen sea water
makes fresh water ice. If you freeze q
basin Of indigo water, it will make ice as
clear and as white as that made Of pure
rain water. When the cold is very sud-
den, these foreign matters have no time
to escape, either by rising or sinking, and
are thus entangled with the ice, but do
make any part Of it. .a
