FROM LEWISVILLE.

Ed. INDEPENDENT townsville is
situated in the big bend of Cow creek,
and is within a half mile of the little
tunnel. Mr.. Lewis, the energetic pro
prietor of the town, has donated to the
railroad company considerable quan-
tity of land, upon which depot is to
be established, and among other favors
to be shown this place it is to be made
an eating station. A surveyor will
shortly commence laying out the town.
Mr.. Lewis now accommodates the
hungry, both man and beast, and at the
present time is doing an immense bus
mess. Two opposition express wagons
run between this place and Myrtle
Greek, alternating daily. The wagon.
road connecting the tunnels is now
completed, and it is not now necessary
to transport merchandise through the
canyon to get it to the big tunnel.
There are four saloons here, which are
the centre of attraction on Saturday
evenings and Sundays. The "Big
Tent saloon seems to do the larges.

We have the assurance of a 'small
fry" Republican exchange that
there is nothing serious in the dis
sensions in the Republican party and
that all is "lovely ANA morning"
The latest sloveliness" of this party
is to kill its President and then en-
gage in a malignant and ~disgraceful
warfare over his grave. If the party
is proud ofthis kind of tcriticising
its men and measures" it has GER
tainly reached the lowest depths Of
degradation. The "cohesive power Of
public plumber" has a wonderful pow
er to unite, and may keep the Re
publican party for a while longer in
tact, but its dissolution is not very
distant. -

The census of 1880 shows that the
total amount of money annually rails
ed in the United States by direct tax
alton is a little over 81 per capita,
and an exchange adds the informa
tion that while Americans groan even
under this burden, the Russian as
sessment is 81 per capita, the Aus,
trian 81, the Prussian $40 and the
French SIS. A peculiar fact is worth
mentioning here, that from the coun-
try where the burden of taxation is
the heaviest fewer people emigrate
than from any of the other countries
named. The genuine JohnnyC rapau
