In ihis they only said what was no toriously true ; arid they might have added, with equal velocity, that they were resolved to devote thr ir 'humble abilities to putting the Order throughout the country on the same Pro-Slavery plat'orin with themselves. How their services in this' direction and how the general tendencies of. the Order are ap preciated by Soull.tr. i statesmen, may . be seen from a recent speech by Gov. Smith, of -Virginia.

The Wapello (Iowa) Intelligencer esys : "On Christmas day, a Mr. T. W. B ites, while !oiri$; the exploit ol sticking u bar ol lead down his throat, let go his hold, and it descended into his stomach. The phj sicians of this place, not knowing but Bates wan trying to hoax them, made a slight examina tion at. the time, inasmuch as he had made but little ado about it, and. at times, denied having swallowed the lead at all. A few days alter, the victim bavins swallowed tome acid substance; the lead began to corrode, an 1 he became very sick. The physicians were then called in. and it was soon found out that every other attempt to extract the lend would be unavailing, sn ve by opening the stomach. Tins being resolved on, some five or six physicians were called in on Wednes day morning, when Dr. J. Bell, of this place, performed the operation, probably the first mi record, of opening the stomach and ex trading lead. The bar was about eleven inches in length, and about one-half the length showed the acid upon it. The patient at last accounts was getting along finely, with a prospect of speedy recovery, the iu flamation caused by the lead. While in the stomach, being the greatest difficulty to con tend with at present appearances." The Intelligencer, of the Oth ult., tells that Bates is rapidly recovering. know n6thingsinoiiio. The Cleaveluod Leader, a free rabid Anti Know Nothing pappr, thus speaks on the in troductioii of a Know Nothing ticket at the municipal elections in Cleaveland on Tues day in-x : . "Shall the Republicans lay aside, for the time beino-. the great national issue of resis tance to Slavery aggression ? Shall the tax payers abandon the pressing question of re duction of taxes to yive place to pro-slavery nativism. for such it is? Is this the feast ol which we are to partake at the hands of such cooks as those named ? It is for you, fellow citizens, to answer by your acts this evening at the primary Ward meetings, and at the polls next Monday. You can frown down all attempts to foist upon you a Know Noth ing ticket." And y et. in the face of all this, When the Know Nothing party of Richmond presents a ticket at its municipal election, the Demo craiic press denounce it as an anti-slavery movement that shoald be put down by Souih ern men. ...

The St. Louis Republican of the 2Sth ult., says ; - f ; " We hear from Washington, that orders have been issued for the early march or lour thousand troops to the Western Plains, with a view to the chastisement of the Indians, who have, for years past, been engaged in depredations upon the property," and the mur der of American rilizens. It is understood, that one thousand two hundred of the troops are to be stationed at Fort Laramie ; eight hundred . at Fort Kearney ; six hundred at Fori Riley and one thousand five hundred on i In Upper Missouii. With a view to the sustaining of so large a military force, , the proper officers have been directed to purchase a year's supply of provisions, and everything necessary lor the expedition.

Sin: Having had letters -addressed to me byr different County Court Clerks, asking my construction of certain sections ot the Reve nue Act, passed by the last Ge-neinl Assem bly, I have felt it my duty to address this cla-s ot Clerks, and also the Sherilisofihc State, upon the subject. The Clerk in making out tho lax Iijt fr this year, which he is to furnish, to the Sheiifl on or before I lie first day o! Apiii next, is to estimate the taxes according to tho rales im posed by the new Revenue law. which goes into operation thirty days after the rie ol the General Assembly, say from and after the 19th March. 1S33, on the subject of taxation heretofore listed, and which are also embrac ed in the new Revenue law. For instance, the tax by I lie new law is twelve cents on the bund red dollars valuation of laud, and forty cents on the poll. In making out the list, the new law is to be observed as it goes into operation before ttiH list is required to be made out and hand ed to the Sheriff. And so in regard to any other subjects ot' taxation which 'appear up oa the li-os taken in 1551. if the new law changes the rates. Of course these instructions have nothing to dj with new subjects of taxation req-jired by the new law to be hereafter listed. Ii will also be observed by the Clerk, that twelve cents on the hundred dollars valua tion of land, ami lorty cents on the poll, in elude the tax for the Insane Asylum, and in all the State tax on these two subjects; and the Clerk will make out his list accordingly. The Sheriff, in regard to all the faxes to be paid to him without listing, will be gov erned, after the new law goes into operation, by that law. For instance, Merchants ate required to p iy on their capital employed for . the year preceediug the first of April. The new law being in operation the first of April, the tax imposed by that law must be collected. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant. " D. W. COURTS, Public Treasu) y. A BRIGHT BOY.
