WILLIsToN The Rev. James Bond, pas
tor of the Methodist Church, delivered an
exceedingly interesting lecture IN his
church, on Tuesday evening last. His sub
ject, From the Rapidsn to James River, 5"
embraced some severe con1ic:s which were
delineated 10 a concise and picturesque
mapner as also phases of picket duty, re-
connoisslnce, and the apparently not wei
come service of rear guard to 4 wagon
train. The Rev. lecturer was himself a
cavalry soldier, and the scenes he describ-
cd came under his personal observation.
Although the "cruel war is over" we MAJ
yet derive profit from the "reminiscences of
the past, especially when presented in the
Christian and patriotic spirit OF the lectur-
or. The very severe cold prevented large
attendance, but those who were present
were weil-paid for their coming. \ see
ond lecture will be given by Mr.. Bond, on
December lith.

THE last session of the legislature restored
the tax on teams and pack trains. The effect
of this will be to compel transfers to charge
more for freighting in to this Territory. and
consumers to pay more for the necessaries OF
life: while the additional revenue derived by
the restoration of the law. would not, if the
affairs of the public were economically man
aged. be needed. We think the law will prove
a public detriment.
