are exhausted and such vast numbers OF

that 10 by tutning out the Republican

Government q letter, which he was ordered to
convey to Sitting Bull. commanding that worthy
to come into the reservation or consider himself
an outlaw. Anderson was in a auandary. His
instructions were clear and peremptory. He
too busy TO visit Peck so the letter had, II pos-
sible, to be sent to him. A gentleman Of unques-
toned bravery. who could speak the Indian
language fiuently, was sent for and offered $500
and an escort il he would take the letter to the
Indian camp. After consideration. however,
the offer was declined. For" said he. If
could see Sitting Bull myself, believe my life
would be safe, but he would cut my ears of,

patched with the Tnissive after 1t had been very
carefully explained and interpreted. After an
absence OF five DAYS. they returned and con-

forced to illustrate the observation Of
Montesquieu, that it is necessary to re-
duce taxation in proportion to the in
crease of the degradation and ruin of
the people. The people become too
poor to pay the higher rate; their prop
critics and industries fail to yield reve-
nues, and the rate must be reduced to
the capacity Of the wretched people or
slaves to pay. This has been the case
in this city and State. The rates Of the
city tax and Of the State tax have been
reduced, it is true; but at the same time
the property OF the people have de-
preciated to less than half its value,
and much Of it has failed to yield
any revenue whatever; therefore the
present lower rate Of interest is actually
a heavier burthen upon the taxpayers
than was the former higher rate. Bad
government and excessive taxation are
evils under which no State can flourish,
and Montesquieu does not contradict
Junius on this point.
We are not less pronounced than our
neighbor in the opinion that the arts,
and industry are essen
tialst to the prosperity Of the people,
and we desire that a governmental sys-
tenn should be established in Louisiana
which will give them ample protection,
and under which they can thrive and
flourish. We desire to see the fallow
