demand. A still worse feature in this
matter il, that this enormous tax has
nearly ell been squAndered or stolen.
Men who could hardly pay their passage
a hundred miles on q frst.class steam-
boat when this Levee District was first
made, can now. after lingering this tax,
count their money BY the tens Of
thousapds. Everybody connected with
the concern has grown rich, while the
planters Of the Valley have had to
struggle very hard to prevent their
lands being sold. Some Of the Tax
Collectors spend large sums Of money,
build lne houses, live In style, visit
Vicksburg and see the sights here at q
heavy expense, on salaries that mock
the superstition that they are not using
the funds that pass or ought 10 pass
through their hands. "They weave
not, neither do they spin, yet Solomon,
Ia all his glory was not arrayed like
one Of these" The planters sweat aud
plow and hoe and pick, yet the

worth more than one planter In the
