ready have to pay q tax on their roads, depots
&c. The most Of the buildings have been
put up by forced loan; they are to be taken
from the towns taxed and placed in the State
tax. But the main point is that you are tax
ing business that has done everything to
develop the State, and received no profits in
return. He had no surprise that there was a
nervousness about taxation. We must de-
crease our expenses, and return to economi-
cal administration of affairs. A. Libbey,
Esq, said the bill proposed to change the
rule Of taxation. Heretofore real and per-
sonal estate has been taxed for State county
and town taxes in the places where located.
Now it is proposed to change it wholly to q
State tax. This discrirninates against tile
taxpayer where the property is located. This
is most manifes;ly unjust to localities. Who
pays the taxes on these corporations? From
what source? From the business done on the
road; and If the corporation is taxed more,
the fares and freight must be increased it
must come, according to the laws Of business,
from the business Of the State.
This closed the hearing on railroads, at
present. The insurance feature will be taken
up this afternoon, ct two O'Clock, in Repre-
sentatives' Hall. Several gentlemen will
speak in opposition to the proposition to tax
insurance companies.

sembling at the Presbyterian church to the
number of seventy where all reporters and
persons not members of the union were ex-
cluded After the preliminary arrangements
they moved TO Johnson's saloons in the east
ern part of the city who met them kindly but
positively refused to sign the pledge. Several
hymns were sung and prayers were then up
that bedimmed many eyes. From this point
they moved to Carl's saloon on Chestnut

CAsTISE, Feb. II, 1874.
Mr.. EDITOR The Rhetorical exer-
cises at the Eastern Normal School on the
9th inst, being the close of the winter term,
were unusually interesting. The essays en-
braced vide range of topics but were of a
high order. One upon the life of Patrick
Henry, seemed to have caught the spirit of
that revolutionary orator. A discussion upon
the "Authority of Conscience" was logical
and keen. A novel feature Of the exercises
was two sermons, one by lady, the other by
a gentleman. Though founded upon Bible
texts they represented no school of theology,
but for brevity, earnest christian spirit and
practical truth they might well be commended
to our ministers.
The influence of this school in developing
earnest, intelligent young men and women, Is
most marked. The perfection of its disci-
pline, its thoroughness of instruction, the de-
mands of thought and labor, and the moral
and eleyating influences brought so powerful
~ to bear upon these young men and women
who are to become trained teachers of our
youth, is of incalculable value to our State.
Could our legislators appreciate these things
by actual knowledge and observation, they
would feel blessed themselves when they sup
port and sustain such institutions as Normal
Schools. The spring term of the Eastern
Normal School commences on the 2Sd inst,
and promises to be fully attended. Pc.
