The Taxes.

The House Of Delegates is laboring at the
tax-bill. We believe that body has settled
the whiskey-tax, and settled it wrong.
General WILLIAMS on Monday called
the attention Of members to the stamp
tax-or tax on consumption-as the best
form of getting money from the consump-
tion of ardent spirits. That is the only
equitable mode Of imposing this
tax. 1t will reach everybody; everybody
will pay something, and the burden being
so universally distributed it will fall lightly
upon the people, while we avoid altogether
any excessive burthens ul on the wholesale
dealers in liquors. 1t requires no new officers,
and the cost of collection is not great, while
1t will yield twice as much revenue as the
form OF tax wbich seems to have met the fa.
Fos OF the House. We hope the bill will be
yet amended with view to the imposition
OF this tax on consumption. 1t will reac,
white and black, and we know that the ca
lored taxpayers are awfully DELINQUENT i,
helping outthe State revenue.
We trust that the Legislature will 20 seri
ousIy to work and raise the revenue to begi,
the payment ofthe public debt in 600 style
That will relieve us OF all future trouble.

THE Senate on Tuesday indefinitely post

Far too near the truth was the re-

her of the House of Delegates, upon the wn's'

whiskey you touch every man IN the state.

One of the most lucrative branches OF bus
bapdry demands that check should be put
upon the Increase Of dogs. Shcep-husband-

to increase without limit. So many lazy

denied. This evil is unendurabe. We
look to the Changers to inaugurate the
remedy.
