Tax REsIsTANCE.-The editor Of the
Natchitoches Times, who was a Senator
lin the MoEnery Legislature, has this to
1 say about tax resistance;
We publish to-day, Gov. McEnery's
admirable address to the people Of the
State and the Governors and Legisla-
lures of other States of the Union, and
also his circular letter, advising tax
payers to resist fine c%olleetionof taxes
giving publicity TO the latter. more as a
matter of courtesy, to the source from
which it emanated, than from any en-
dorsemel.t on our part of the programme
of resistance marked out. We have not
favored this plan of opposition because
it seemed utterly futile to accomplish
any good result. With the whole ma-
chineFy Of the State courts organized in
the interest of the de facto government,
strengthened by VendietiYe and partisan
legislation, o temporary delay is all
that can be accomplished, which will
not compensate for the costs and PEN
alties which would accrue to the already
crushing weight.of taxation. The idea
is like that which prevailed during the
war, when cotton was burned before the
advance Of the Federal troops to pre-
vent it from falling into their hands-4I

The old adage that "truth Is stran-

recent occurrence at Fonda, n. IL.
The particulars are given by corre-
spoudent Of the Troy Times. a man
named Robert Dunlap, whose age Is
little under go. was arrested and put In
the Fonda jail. charged with burning
n barn. The arrest took place year
ago, and his trial was so delayed that
IL only came oil last court, when he
was convicted aud sentenced to tive
years at Dannenorra. Last year a
young man who called himself Henry
Thomas, was arrested for horse-steal-
ing, and was also placed In the Jail at
Fonda. He was about is, and appeared
TO be Of a mischievous turn. lie re.

The latter. indeed, said that he could

him of whatever he could get. II he
had book or paper, or little money
or tobacco, Thomas would pilfer it.and
this gave the old man much annoyance.
Thomas was tried at the court with

and sentenced TO four years service in
the State prison. Last week Sheriff
Wagner started for Dannemora. by
way OF Watertown, and having to re-
main there to change cars, the prison.
srs were conveyed to jail for safe
keeping. While they were there, OH.
Ger Failing Of Watertown, recognized
Thomas rs boy whom he had placed
In the House OF Refuge In Rochester.
whence he escaped three years ago.
The boys mother still lived In Water
town, and was sent for to see her child.
She came to hold brief interview
with him, and there saw Dunlap,
whom, TO the astonishment OF al, she
claimed rs her husband, and the father
Of her unfortunate boy. This claim
was correct. Dunlap had deserted her
many years before. and now it appear
ed that the two prisoners, journeying
toward the State prison, bore the reia-
tion Of father and sou.
