The receipts Of revenSs have tslIes very
much below the estimates. from the fact
that numses Of The railroad companies.
coal composites and national banks are
still resisting the payment Of the taxes
imposed BY law. and consequently the
large amounts duo from these corporations
are still unpaid. A large item Of revenue
has also been lost to the treasury By the
failure Of the last Legislature to enact .
suitable law imposing license upon sam.
pie traders. The revenue from this source
in 1871 amounted to 81, 223. bat the
Law imposing the license being defective
became imperative. and the bill framed
to cover the defect failing to be passed
that item Of revenue has been lost to the

Ss3pFE callcd,the attention last week, to
the fact ttat John W. Gregg of Nevada,
in this county, desired to sell his farm.
There is about 100 acres under the plough
and something more than that fenced.
He has a comfortable house, a good gran.
cry, excellent stables etc. A fine young
grove surrounds the buildings and yards
The farm is in a good neighborhood.
close to a new school house, and zeal to
market. 1t is in all respects q most de
sirable situation, and ought to command
a purchaser at once.
