RESUMPTION OF LABOR.

Phylosophy teaches us that no ma terial substance Is everlannihilated. It also said that mind controls matter, ,and it ought to have been said that labor controls mind and matter. Suppose X poor man who has largefamily they generally do) depending upon his daily labor, should be stricken down with chills and fever, dumb agtie, or some thing of the kind. He resorts to quin- inc, but the chills return, he would employ doctor but the cost is to great, and few days lost time is told by tho scarce and scanty table and the hunger of his poor family. Quinine sets him crazy, arsenic bloats him, and gelseiii- imun makes him see double,. Such h man should use nothing but Days Ague Tonic, it will cure him sound and we'll at once, the chills will not return, and then his labor can be resumed.

VERY IMPORTANT.

The above is from the Osceola Times. We have not seen the text of the new revenue law framed by the recent Legislature, but if it con tains such feature as that detailed by the Times, we fully endorse the judgement of that paper, that "it is an outrage upon the people" We care not how many other excellent features the bill might possess, if it contains such provision as that, it ought to be pronounced the most cunningly devised, the most hurtful and outrageous law, on our statute books and the governor should not hesitate to save the people by put ting his emphatic veto upon it. We know from the extra demand for copies of our paper containing the delinquent tax lists that land own CTS look upon this as great protec- tion and a great convenience to them and if the publication of these lists should be discontinued we know the discontinue and annoyance and con fusion which would follow would be most grievous wrong upon the State. We very much wonder how any bill containing such provision ever got the support of a sufficient number of the General Assembly to psss it; but if the Times is correct about it, we again say that the Gov ernor should make haste to veto it, and thus avert the danger which turks behind that provision.
 The action of our legislature, doing away with the Delinquent Land Tax list, is in perfect keeping with the un- wise legislation which almost univer- sally characteriZes the last general assembly,. The collectors is required to file his list of delinquent lands and owners with the clerk of the county, where it remains for one year; at the expiration of which time the clerk is authorized to dispose ofthe lands to any one who happens along, without notice to1 the owner. From the very nature of the manner of collecting taxes, errors must of necessity occur, and land owners will have no means of ascertaining whether or not their lands are marked paid or returned delinquent until pos sesion of their property is demanded. We don't know whether the Governor has approved this Act yet or not; if not, we hope he will not. It is an out rage upon the people of the State.
