MEETING OF THE COMMERCIAL EXCHANGE.
AT an adjourned meeting of the Commercial
Exchange, held at their rooms, this morning,
to take into consideration the tax bill (noW be-
tore the Legislature of the State, so tar as 1t
APPLIES to the commission merchants as class,
w. A. Moore in the chair and Donald Mclean
secretary, the following resolutions were adopt
ed:
/. Reso7ued That we conceive it to be the
duty of the Legislature to preserve the honor
and integrity of the State by the prompt and
purctual payment Of the interest on State debt,
and to increase taxation so far as may be Deces-
sary to do the same, but that every principle of
Justice and fairness demands that such taxation
should bear on all alike.
2. Resolred. That we protest against that
section Of the bill which proposes to charge
commission merchants three per ceot on their
gross commissions (which is their income,) no.
less like tax of three per cent is charged upon
the gross receipts of the farmer, the lawyer, the
doctor, and all other professions, trades and oc-
equations.
5 Reso'ved, That the lands of the common
wealth pay less, in proportion to value, than
any other property, and we suggest the con,
sideration OF bill taxing the products thereof,
by which means class OF tenants 90 shares
would be reached, who now pay but little to
the revenue of the State.
4. Resolred, That our delegates and senators
in the Legislature are respectfully requested To
use every effort to defeat this unjust PROPOSE
ton to levy special and excessive taxation upon
commission merchants as class, the effect Of
which will be to increase charges and thereby
drive much of our trade to neighboHng city,
where no such class legislation exists.
5. Resolred. That copy of these resolutions
be sent our delegate, l. G. ONea, esq.,, with
the thanks Of this association for his prompt.
ness in calling attention to the provisions Of
this bill, and tor such disposition as he mag
deem best

morning, the services were Of a very solemn
character though scarcely as impressive as on
former OCCASIONS as all the usual chanting was
omitted, and the prayers, lessons, &c, read by
a single clergyman. The ceremony of kissing
the cross, peculiar to the day, was particl pated
in by very large plumber of persons. As before
announced, Rev. Il. j. Sourin, of Baltimore,
will preach in this church tonight.
At all the Episcopal churches, also, services
of the most impressive character took place.

Our esteemed fellow.citizen, Mr.. L. j.

of Halls Journal of Health. Who has
not heard Of DR.. Hall, aud read his ex.
cellent advice adapted to the masses
Extracts from his writings have been
published in perhaps every newspaper
in the United States. His words are
words of practical wisdom and common
sense, devoid of technicalities and
learned circumloeution. The work
for which Mr.. Walton is agent contains
$50 pages and 80 fine engravings.
1t is terse, vigorous, plain and full of
variety. There is rapid succession of
subjects, yet each one is treated thor
oughly. Its circulation among the peo-
pie will both prevent and cure disease;
it will improve their morals and enlarge
the understanding. 1t is book for the
million, and will sell rapidly, as the price
is very low, the cheapest style of bind.
ing being only four dollars. We wish
Mr.. Walton great success.

The place to purchase the best boots

well-known establishment of Apper-

attention of the public to the sales.
Country merchants and dealers will find
