ANOTHER OH SETTLERS MEETING.
On Saturday last certain clergy
man, in travelling the new road which
has been opened from Bridgeport to
Melville, along the bluffs of the Wis.
consin, encountered some miles from
any habitation a tree which had been
Frustrated by one of the late storms.
As the road was dugway at that
point, the tree was so high above the
track as to render it impossible for
him to get the buggy over, and to re-
move the tree without an ak was
equally impracticable; and so our
traveller mounted his horse and went
for assistance. At length he met a
young man who was hunting in that
almost unbroken solitude, and who
very kindly volunteered to return with
him. On reaching the obstruction,
they found another man endeavoriDg,
with the aid Of a lad, his son, to pass
it in the face of almost insuperable
difficulties. All uniting to lift and pull
both vehicles were soon placed on the
right side Of the obtrusive and obsti-
nate tree, when pleasant congratula.
tons were exchanged between Mr..
VIM. Humphrey, of Patch Grove and
Rev. S. w. Eaton of this place.
At this old settlers meeting, which
occurred without previous notice, the
incidents of early times were acted
instead of being merely related, after
the usual manner of such gatherings.

Ns
The Ways and Means Committee OF
sthe House, after consultation with Sec-
retary Bristow and an examination OF
the sources of revenue, have come to
believe that increased taxation is nee
essary to supply the necessary revenue
land still keep up the sinking fund.
The committee also opposed the
project of putting this increased tax
on tea and coffee as favored by some.
They also came to the conclusion that
cit was evident that no decrease of ex-
penditures would begin to provide the
necessary remedy. The committee
therefore through Dawes, chairman on
the 10th instant, introduced bill to
increase the tax ON whiskey to one
dollar gallon, and Oh tobacco to
twenty -four cents per pound. This is
an increase on whiskey of about thirty
cents gallon, and on tobacco of four
cents a pound. The bill also provides
for the abolition, after the present year,
of the tax on matches and bank. .checks.
We like the general tenor Of the bill.
We think the increaaed taxation 10
placed in just as good place a. It can
be. The bill is intended to provide
for the raising Of $50, 900, 600 additional
revenue. The whiskey aud tobacco
market, on account of this action, IL
lively and fuctuating. Those having
quantities in store, should the bill
pass, will reap nice profit.

old child had her clothing fired by

II will be remembered that come.

Of this district introduced into the
House bin for the equalization Of
bounties to soldiers in the rebellion.
II seems this bill has been thorough,
Sdigested by the committee on militsr,

is set apart BY the House for the CON.
sideration of the bill. The bill con-
templates giving to soldiers 90 much
bounty, deducling the sum Of the
bounties already received by each SOL
dier.
We are satisfied that the Republican
Congress will pas the bill, unless they
find that the amount necessarily ex-
pended by it is too large for the abili-
sty and present nnancIl condition or the
nation. In the meantime we would
advise that no soldiers build too strong
hopes upon it's passage.

A BILL for the admission of Colorado
as State has passed the House, and
now awaits action by the Senate. II
is not impossible that we may have
new State in the Union soon. It seems
to us that Colorado has population and
wealth sufficient to assume State rela-
tions in the Union. Already she has
large commercial cities of national rep.
utation, and considering the condition
of many of our States at the time OF
their admission, we think Colorado's
claims are good.
