The PAISY,-A deeply scientific writer
in IN evening contemporary explains
that the palsy Of tue fingers sometimes
suffered by pehmen is altogether due to
the use OF steel pen, which, "prcssed
closely in writing. does actually conduct
of electricity so rapidly as TO produce a
palsy OF those particular members in
some highly orgnuiEOd person." Since
tho average apriculluristS, feet are sci

Providing for the Tax Collector.
From the Nashville Banner. Dec. 1871
We made mention Of the fact yester-
day that the Attorney General had de-
cided that the Comptroller shall move on
any tax collectors bond on the lst Of
January Of each year, and that the two
years F" allowed the collector by law
is only intended as time within which
he may settle with those who have
been delinquent in paying their taxes
to him. We have suggested that this
might be held to be a rather severe con-
struction Of the law. which, however, is
not the case. The real fact is that the
collector has his remedy against de-
linquents, during the year for which the
taxes are due, and the two year" is
intended as an extension Of time, in
which he may save himself
