THE INCOME TAX AND INTERNAL REVENUE
SCHEDULES TO BE REPORTED AS
SEPARATE BILL.

Washington. Jan 1.-THE income tax and the
other internal revenue features Of the Tariff bill
will be reported as a separate measure. This
cusion reached at the meeting of the Ways
and Means Committee this morning by vote Of
to 5. Those who voted In the affirmative
Messrs. Wilson dem. w Va. Breckenridge dem.
Ark. Stevens Dem. Mass.). Cochran dem, y.
". Montgomery dem. KyD and Bynum dem.
Ind. Messrs. Bryan dem. NebJ. McMillin dem.
Tenn. Tarsney dem. MOI. Turner dem. GA.
1t believed that the incorporation OF the in
come tax in the Tariff bill would seriously endanger
the fate of the latter and this consideration
sufficiently potent TO secure the support Of the
jority Of the committee. 1t was further decided
TO report the Internal Revenue bill Thursday
next. No suggestion was made at to-day's meeting
looking 10 any increase in the whiskey tax beyond
that already agreed upon by the committee, and
none Is likely to be made.

WORTHY OF CUSTER.
A Daring Rescue Accomplished by that
Gallant Leader.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Recent
articles relating to the campaign In the
Shenandoah Valley in 1864 have recalled to
my mind few incidents that / have not
seen recorded in history. With your per-
mission will try TO describe some of these
Incidents
On Aug. 26, the First and Third Divisions
of Cavalry were sent from the vicinity of
Halltown, under Gen. Torbert, to recOnnoiter
in the direction of Leetown. We found the
rebels in force, and all ready to stake care
of us in their way. So many were they and
so resolute that the command was obliged
after time to retire and make its way
back towards Harper's Ferry. A running
fight was kept up until Shepherdstown was
reached.
My regiment 0st N. Y Dragoons), then
temporarily attached to Gen. Clusters Bri-
gade, was in the rear during this retreat,
and for some reason, or through some mis-
take, we were halted, and left in the village
of Shepherdstown long time, the enemy
in our rear very kindly letting US alone In
the meantime. Their kindness was soon
explained, however, for on moving out of the
town we found short distance out line of
rebel infantry across the road to Harpers
Ferry, our only line of retreat, as we then
supposed.
Things looked rather dark just then, as
the cavalry in our rear was threatening to
charge US, and the infantry in front seemed
to be there for business.
But help was nearer than we knew. Over
and down the hill in rear of the rebel infan-
try swept small body of mounted men, ap-
parently the advance of larger body, in
reality, Gen. Custer with only his staff and
Headquarters guard. Learning in some
way of our situation, he had turned back,
and so sudden and fierce was his charge
down the hill that the rebels offered little
resistance to his passage through their lines.
Taking command, he first directed us to
"drive back those fellows" the cavalry, who
were charging out from the town. This be-
ing done, he drew US of to the left to posi-
tion on the bank Of the Potomac River,
which we held until nearly dark, when he
guided us across the river, by blind ford
he knew of, into Maryland. 1t was brave
deed bravely done, and no doubt saved
some of US from death or capture.-M. w.

A Matter-of-Fact Seed Book.

There is such a great similarity I'm seed cata-
iogues usual thing that il is refreshing as well
as beneficial to read one In which plain UNI var
nished facts rule. The catalogue issued by j. ]. H.
Gregory Son, of Marblehead. Mass, is a matter
of-fact book IN every sense of the word, and is
certain 10 meet with the highest appreciation from
farmers and gardeners who are working for actual
results and cannot afford TO experiment. There
are no highly. colored illustrations to mislead
neither is there exaggerated language to deceive
1t simply helps the farmer to get the seeds best
adapted for his needs and from them derive the
best possible results. In nutshell. there is moth
ing good left out and nothing poor let in. To this
method OF doing business is no doubt due the in
creasing popularity of Gregorys Seeds and the
continual prosperity of that famous old house
Since 1856 they have been studying the wants of
farmers and supplying them with just what they
wanted. To-day IL would be difficult 10 point to a
section of the country where Gregory's seeds are
not known and grown. They send their Catal ogue
TO anyone who planta Seeds free of charge.

Saving the Guns.

Thomas J. Bond, I'd Ohio, Newport, KY,
writes: g In your issue of Jan. II, Comrade
BOLTON, of st. Louis, has called down Com
rade Swan and myself about the saving of
the guns. If Comrade BOLTON will read the
letters again, he will see that we were not
telling of guns near Clouds Hospital, but
of guns on the ridge at Rossville Gap; and
if it was 80 years ago, know that there
were guns ON the ridge at the Gap firing on
the rebels after night, while the I'd Ohio
was ON picket; and the guns were taken
from the ridge at night, and, I was told,
blankets were wrapped around the wheels
to deaden the noise. We did not hear them
leaving the ridge.
I" 1 will not dispute about my getting to
Chattanooga Monday or Tuesday morning,
as 1 knew the rebels were not long behind
in making their appearance in sight of the
breastworks. So We will say it was Tues
day morning"
