PORTLAND DAILY PRESS. V0L* 1* PORTLAND, ME., TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 80, 18G2. NQ 85. PORTLAND DAlLl PRESS, JOHN T. OILMAN, i JOSEPH B. HALL, Edltor» la pu bill lied »t No. 82J EXCHANGE STREET, in VOX BLOCK, by FOSTER, OILMAN And HALL, Under the lirra name of N. A. FOSTER A CO. Tarms! Tn* Portland Daily Press is published every morning, (Sundays excepted), at 85,00 jK?r year iu ased himself to the direct rays of the sun. Lying on the lounge, and turning over from time to time, each and every part of the body was thus exposed to the life-giving rays of the sun. Several London physicians candidly confessed to me that many cases, which seemed waiting only for the shroud, were galvanized into life and health by this process. Many years ago a clergyman, who had for years lieen a victim to dyspepsia, and who had earnestly prayed for death as the only door of esca|>e, came at length, through the advice of a mutual tricud, to consult me. I advised the disuse of all medicines, and generous use of cracked wheat, and good been end much ex posure to the sun. To secure the last men tioned item, I directed him to build a close fence covering a space twenty feet square in his garden, and plant the earth within with something to oeeupy his mind ami time.— Then, when the weather was warm, shutting himself in, he was to busy himself quite nude, with the cultivation of his vegetables, from ten to sixty minutes each day, always indulging in a thorough hath and vigorous friction, be fore dressing, lie tea* speedily and radically cured. I was practising my profession in Buffalo, N. Y., during ’41) uml '.11—those memorable cholera seasons. I saw at least live cases of the cholera on the shady side of the street and houses, to one on the other side. One emi nent physician in New Orleans reports, from his own observation, five cases of yellow fever on the shady side of the street to' one on the sunny side. ho has not read Florence Nightingale’s observations in the Crimea in regard t- ie typhoid fever, as between the shady and sunny side oi the hospitals In .St. Petersburg, the shady side of the military hospitals was so no toriously unfavorable to the sick ^pldier, that the Czar decreed them into disuse. The shade trees alxiut our dwellings have done something to make our wives pale and feeble. Is it not enough that our women should have placed between them and the great fountain of life and light, six inches of brick wall, without the addition of twenty ft. of green leaves. Trees ought never to stand near enough to onr houses to cast a shade up on them; und, if the blinds were removed,and nothing left but a curtain within, with which to lessen, on the hottest days, the intensity of the heat, it would add greatly to the tone of our nerves, and our general vigor. The piazzas which project over the lower stories always make that inferior to the upper story, especially for sleeping purposes. I cured, during my professional career, a great many cases ot rheumatism, by advising patients to leave a lied room shaded by trees or a broad piazza, and sleep in a room and lied which were constantly dried and purified by the di rect rays of the sun.—[Lewis Journal of Phy sical Culture. Orpheus C. Kerr's last. From the last letter of Orpheus C. Kerr we extract the following passage: It is tile “Union as it waa” that we want, my boy, and those who have other articles to sell are hereby accused of being accursed aboli tionists. I was talking the other day to a venerable Congressman from Maryland, who nuu jiisi, umni m protest against tne disturb ance of mail facilities between Baltimore and the Capital of the Southern Confederacy, and says he “1 have sevoial friends who are Con federacies. and they inform me that they arc perfectly willing to return to the Union as it was, in case they should fail in their present enterprise. “If I thought,” says the Congressman, has tily placing a lottery ticket in his vest pocket, “if I thought this w ar was to be waged for tile purpose of injuring the Southern Confederacy, rather than to restore the Union as it was, 'l should at once demand more mileage of the Government, and repeatedly inquire what had become of all the‘Wideawakes.’” As he uttered the last horrible threat, my boy, 1 wa- impressed with a sense of something darkly democratic. Too many of the wide awakes of the last carnpanigu are indeed fast asleep now, when their country needs them. I saw one of them slutnberiug near Culpepper Court House last week. He was sleeping with his right arm twisted in the spokes of a disabled cannon wheel, and a small purple mark, was on his right temple. But he was not alone in his forgetful sloth, my boy, fur near him, and rigidly grasping his right hand, was a Demo crat, slumbering too! The sight, 1 remember, rendered me so hon estly indignant that I could not help pointing it. out to the chaplain. The chaplain looked a moment at the Fusion Ticket before us. “They sleep for the flag,” says he softly, “and may may its stars shed pleasant dreams upon their loyal souls forever.” Orpheus lias written many witty passages, but neither he nor any one eise in this war has written a prettier tiling than the closing pas sages of the above extract.—[Boston Traveler.

THE DAILY PRESS. PORTLAND, MMXfc. Tuesday Morning, Sept. 30,1803. The Meeting ot the I.ojat Governors. Gov. Washburn passed through this city by the evening train of Saturday, on his way home from the late meeting of the Governors of the loyal States, at Altoona, Pa We had the pleasure of a long interview with him on the. road to Brunswick, and lie was very free and communicative in relation to the purposes, views and acta developed at tiie Gubernatorial Convention, in which he had so recently |>artic ipated. Gov. W. said he took paius, carefully to read the account of that meeting, as given in tiie Xew York Herald, from its “special” and “reliable” correspondent—which account was telegraphed to the press—and, singular as it mat"seem, tiie only solitary truth contained in that account, was the statement of the nak ed (act that such a meeting was being held at Altoona. There was not the first element of truth in any other statement made in that fam ous despatch. The question of our Generals or military commanders, was not even alluded to in tiie Convention. Privately tin' matter might have lieen discussed, in mere conversation, outside of the Convention; anil doubtless gentlemen freely expressed their views to each other, and compared notes; but so far as Gov. Washburn could learn, noonethought ofbringing the mut ter before the Convention, even for discussion, much less lor action, and no one believed it would be either politic or modest for tiie Con vention in any way to interfere witii the con duct of the war, or with tiie commanders in the field, even by their advice; certainly no further than to give assurance to the Presi dent of their willingness and desire, us repre sentatives of their respective States, to co-op erate with, and aii the Government, to tiie foil extent of their ability, in any measures looking to asDeedv closing ill) of the rebellion. and restoration of peare, on a I mi sis safe for the future, and honorable to the w hole coun try. The issue of the emancipation proclamation at that particular juncture was opportune, in asmuch as it atTorded opportunity to talk over ami compare notes upon the greatest and most important State pa|ier of the age. and one in volving issues and interests of the most mo mentous character. The manner in which this proclamation was received possesses pe culiar interest. The first man to break ground in relation to it was no radical, no aliolitionist, no sore-head. It was not Andrew, or Kirk wood, or Yates; it was not the Executive of “abolition Vermont,”or “fanatical Maine,”—as some pro-slavery men would perhaps style those States—but it was David Tod, the Democratic Governor of Ohio! It was Gov. Tod who first made a propo sition in relation to the proclamation, and he pro|K>sed to tender congratulations to the Pres ident, ami toexpress the hoj>e that “as he had spoken the great word, he would follow it by striking the. rjreat blow; and to assure him that they, backed by their respective States, were ready, willing, and anxious to help him.” No man was more prompt to second Gov. Tod's proposition, than the noble-hearted Pierpout, of Virginia. He and his people had talked the matter over, and knew it must come to this, and he heartily rejoiced that it had come. The Governors of Kentucky and Indiana were absent, in consequence of the rebel raids within their States, or on their borders, but they were understood to sympathize fully w ith those who were present. The Governor of Delaware was absent, in consequence of sick ness, but sent a cordial letter of sympathy.— Gov. Bradford, of Maryland, alone declined to commit himse.lt to Gov. Tod's proposition. but urged hi* associates to believe that it was from no unwillingness to back up the war.— It was a new question, in relation to which he had taken no council with his people, lie had only hastily and carelessly read the proc lamation on his way to the Convention, (no copy of it could lie found in Altoona, though all had seen it) and he did not know that he fully understood it; but if he believed it would shorten the war but a single week, he would cheerfully sign the address, whatever the con sequences to the slavery institution. The other matters that came before the Convention have been fully stated in the tele- graphic reports, and all of them were acted upon with the utmost unanimity, and not a jarring word or discordant note was uttered. The Governors were hopeful, and derived fresh courage from the proclamation, and the spirit iu which it was received. Gen. Mc Clernard, the loading Douglas man of Illinois, was present, and declared the proclamation was most opportune, and that it would electri fy the whole North-west. Correspondence of the Press.

At the present juncture, everything con nected witli the war is viewed with interest; and though future events cannot bo prophesied with the least degree of certainty, or hardly probability of their fulfillment, vet they are ea gerly gulphed down by the multitude. And not only prophesies of future army move ments are not to be relied upon.buteven state ment* concerning that which lias transpired are to he received with caution. It is but a few days since the intelligence of a reliol raid into Maryland electrittcd the country; and since then, the news of a great battle in which the federal arms were vicloriousatnd the“death’ or “capture” of Stonewall Jackson, created a still more excitement, if possible, than the first batch of “reliable” news, llut now,though the rumor o#tbe invasion and subsequent light, prove to have been well founded, the fact of a federal victory, or even any signal advantage to our cause, being secured, is not so apparent as is desirable. True, the rebels were driven back over the Potomac, with heavy loss; hut alter all, it may have been but a part of Stone wall's “strategy;” for no sane limn can su|> Hint hf> U'oiiIH tliinLr inv;irlin strong) symptoms of dying of dry rot.

Our sutler seems to be the prime cause of this stringency, as all the coppers spent out side the lines take from his 400 per cent, net profit,and the Colonel has forbidden all out side trading, as “it interferes with the rights of tlie sutler.” We hope soon, however, to chronicle an improvement in this respect; to see the boys with clean faces once more, re joicing that they have the privilege of buying nice, sweet butter at 25 cts., and the lest of cheese for 20 cts., instead of paying about 00 cents for the former, and 40 cents for the lat ter, as they have to when buying o! the sutler.

Letter from the Federal Capital. Washington, Sept. 26,1,862. Editors Press:—Since writing you last, 1 have visited the recent hattle-field, and many of our Maim: friends in several regiments—and w itnessed many scenes which would not be pleasant to your readers, were X able to de w iiw uieiii. titTi aero oa >7aiuruiiy, »l u, A.

Steven, and Boothbay of Portland, ac tive in their duties, looking out for the rebels, Ac. A few *ick and wounded Maine men, in Hospitals there, now removed to Washington. I understand that a full list of the wounded, killed and missing of each regiment, engaged in the tight, lias been prepared by the officers, of such regiiuentsatud forwarded; for this rea son, I did-not procure a list of the casualties. A little beyond the Headquarters of Gen. Mc Celtan, near Sharps!,urg, found the 16th Regi ment. somewhat \vor114lowu by haul marches, Ac. The men, however, are in good spirits. The 20th Maine are in Porter’s Corps, near Headquarters towards Harper’s Ferry. The 10th are on Maryland Heights. The 3th and Till regiments, are near the battle-fleld. Har per’s Ferry is in complete ruin, the locality around presents a scene seldom witnessed. Every road and lane is tilled with baggage wagons and artillery. The bridge across the Monocracy, is now passable, and the trains come up to Sandy Hook. Large numbers of troops have forded the Potomac J list nbove the railroad bridge, to the Virginia side, and are, many ui uiciu on jxmivar ncignis. a poon tuuu bridge is now laid arrows the river. Work men are engaged in removing the rubbish of the railroad bridge, destroyed by tbe rebels, preparatory to the erection of a temporary bridge, which it is expected w ill he completed In ten days. Whether it is being fixed up for the rebels to destroy again, remains to be seen. Tbe rascals can be seen all along the line of tlie river,watching our movement-.ami in quite a force at Charlestown. The rebels are in a Hue, rich locality now, and they w ill probably tay there it while and fat up; unless there should be some more “mysterious” movements. Our gallant Gen. Howard is quartered on Bolivar Heights; he haschargeof one division In .Sumner's corps. I hear the General did good service in the recent battles. From what I hear Adjutant Gen. Whittlesey can act the military as well as he did the Professor; in fact, all our Maine men engaged in the battles fought like heroes, and are deserving of all tionor. May God bless them, and crown their Hin ts with success, until this unholy rebel lion is crushed out. }{ol>ert Weeks, son of .1. F. Weeks, arrived ere to-day from Richmond, exchanged.

The cuiaud lor these articles is constantly in reusing, as our sick are brought in here from 11 points. I am satisfied, from what I have seen of the pc rations of the U. fc>.

Portland, Sept. 20th. Per Order. Interesting to Owners of Bank Stock. A cashier of oue of the banks in Massachu setts recently addressed the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, for a decision npon a por tion of the 82d JSection of the Excise Tax Law. It was the opinion of the cashier that if a bank declare a dividend of four per cent., it must not pay that amount to the stockhold er, but must deduct three per cent, from the dividend. Thus, if the dividend be four dol lars |ter share on the par value of one hundred dollars, the stockholder will receive but three dollars and eighty-eight cents. The following is the Commissioner's answer: Treasury Department, 1 Office of Internal Revenue, Sept- 23d. Sir.-—Tour letter of Sept. 2tnh has been re ceived. In reply, I would sav: Your construction of the 82d Section of tbe Tax Law is precisely correct. If your bank declares a dividend of ten thousand dollars, you must withhold from the parlies to whom tlie dividend is payable three per cent, on that sum, viz.: three hundred dollars, and account for it to the Commissioner of Internal Reve nue, as required in the law. Very respectfully, Geo. S. Boutwell, Commissioner.” Stamp Duties. As till* doSimfj'h fl'Min Wnshtnrrinn mlaiina o -O to stamp duties, published iu our issue of yes terday, has created some little excitement, and as the public, generally, do not seem to under stand the exact nature of the acts passed iu relation to that matter, we give below the sec tion from the excise tax act upon that subject. Section 85 of the act approved July 1, 1802. provides: That if any person or persons shall make, sign, or issue, or cause to be made, sign ed, or issued, any instrument, document, or paper ol any kind or description whatsoever, without the same being duly stamjied for de noting the duty hereby imposed thereon, or without having thereupon an adhesive slump to denote said duty, such person or persons shall incur a penalty of fifty dollars, a nd such instrument., document or paper, as aforesaid, shall be deemed invalid and of no effect. An amendment to this act was approved July 14, 1882, as follows: Sec. 25. Andbeit further enacted, That the 85th section of the act entitled "An act to pro vide internal revenue to support the govern ment and pay interest on the public debt," air proved July 1, 1882, be so amended that no instrument, document, or paper, made, signed, or issued prior to the 1st day of January, 1803, without being duly stamped, or having thereon an adhesive stamp to denote the duty imposed thereon, shall for that cause be deemed invalid and of no effect: Provided, /micerer, that no such instrument, document or paper, shall be admitted or used as evidence iu any court un til the same shall have been duly stamped, nor until the holder thereof shall have proved to the satisfaction of the court that he lias paid to thu collector or deputy collector of the dis trict within which such court may be held, the sum of five dollars for the use of the United States. We are informed that Mr. Miller, the col lector for this district, has sent to Washington for the requisite stamps, and that he expects to be supplied with them at an early ju ried next month. Notice will be given by Mr. Miller, through the papers, when he shall have receiv ed these stamps. I Portland Daily Press. SOUTHERN ITEMS. A Snsperlrd Fotlcntl Spy Hung. Arrival of Prisoners at Richmond. SAiM HOUSTON’ STILL ALIVE. Rebel Sick anil Wounded. Fortress Monroe, Sept. 2H. Tin- steamer Guide from Newbern, N. pul in here Ibis morning and lelt at noon lor j New York. She brought no news. Everything is very quiet at Norfolk and Suffolk. Tile (lag of truce boat Jno. A. Warren, from j Aiken’s Lauding, arrived here this morning, j bringing down only two liunilics from Klcli mond, ou their way North. The Richmond Dispatch of Sept. 27th, says that about two weeks ago live men were ar rested from a boat in Mobile, on suspicion of attempting to escape to New Orleans. They were subsequently sent to prison in Mobile. Upon searching them there were found charts and plans of the defences ol Mobile. One of them, Dr. Marins Louis Rossvilley, of New Orleans, where has a wife and children, has been hanged, but whether by military or civil authority is not ascertained. Tile despatch also says, our army is daily in creasing by accessions of stragglers and eou scripts. Whatever may be the intended movements of (fen. Lee, be is pesfeclly successful in keep ing them concealed; what is concealed Horn our people llnds little chance of making its way to the enemy. Up to Tuesday last our pickets extended to the neighborhood of Harper’s Ferry. It is not probable that the federals will at tempt to cross the Potomac again at present. Romney is occupied by our rangers. Five hundred Yankees, many of them wounded, are expected to arrive to-day from Gordonsville. If they arrive in season they may be included in the number of released prisoners that we shall send to Aiken’s Land ing to-day. 4 ill r|'l 111 ftll V niffllt I.7 Vunlrno nvisonnw.. rived from Gordon*vdie, including several sur geons and nurses. The Despatch also mentions the fact that Abraham Lincoln hits issued a proclamation to lilierulc the slaves, but makes no further comment on the subject. The same paper also states that a yankee cavalry force visited Warrcntou Junction, Thursday last, where a number of wounded were left after the battle of Manassas. It con jecture* that the yankees intend to make a raid on that place Intake prisoners those who. from their wounds, are unable to defend them selves. The Despatch also contains an item from a Texas paper, dated Sept. 3d, which says that Gen. Sam Houston is alive and well and living on his old homestead. The Despatch advises the appointment of a reliable brigade in the service to prevent straggling from the Confederate army. The Richmond Examiner of the 27th says that the public highways in the valley of Vir ginia, from Winchester to Staunton, arc crowd ed with suffering and wounded soldiers, who were in the tight of Sunday, Monday’ and Tuesday, and especially in the terrible tight of Wednesday of last week. They left the battlefield for home or the hospital and were too weak to proceed, and had no money to procure their passage. FROM WASHINGTON. The New Revenue or Stamp Tax. Washington, September 29. Arrangements have been made by which Dr. J. W. Stone, U. S. Collector of Internal Reve nue at Boston, will furnish the public general ly, especially in New England, with revenue or tux stamps, at the regular government rates of discount, as rapidly ns they can be manu factured or supplied, on remittances to Boston of treasury notes.. The following commissions, payable in stamps, will be allowed: on purchases of #50 or more, 2 per cent.; of #lo0or more, 3 per cent.; of $.j(X) or more, 4 per cent.;of# 1 000 or more, 5 per cent. In sending orders the public should remember that by law every stamp ex presses on it* face its kind as well as its de nomination. Each stamp can la- used for no otlter purpose than that specified; thus check stamps are for checks alone, contract stamps for contracts only, and the person using such v u uj aumiij; un iiiiuai". Bolivar Lovell has been appointed assessor of the Third District of New Hampshire in place of Calvin May, Jr.,deceased, of the exer cise direct tax law. It Is not known here in any q urrters that Gen. Buell has stated in the newspapers, that lie has beeu assigned to duty at Indianapolis to organize paroled prisoners into regiments. By direction of the President, Maj. John J. Key, additional Aide De Camp in the United States service, is dismissed for uttering dis loyal sentiments. Fining Disloyal Persons. GEN.CURTISON A VISIT TO ST. LOUIS. St. Loris, Sept. 29. Three hundred and sixty-three disloyal citi zens of Carroll Co., Mo., have recently been assessed $11,000 by the board of commission ers, appointed under General Order No.3. for killing and wounding loyal soldiers and citi zens, and for hiking property belonging to said persons. The sums levied range from 2 to 100U dollars on each person. If the amount is not paid in ten days after notice their prop erty will be seized. Gen. Curtis, with his staff, paid a visit tills morning to the fortillcalious surrounding the city, and expressed himself highly pleased with their appearance and the manner in which the military arrangements are conducted in them. The appearance of the General and stall on the street collected quite a crowd of citizens. The 33d Iowa volunteers arrived this fore noon, and marched out to Benton hat racks. From Newbern, N. C.

The following Is from the American's letter, dated Camp of the X. V. Zouaves, near Sharps hnrg, Sept. 29.—The head-quarturg of General McClellan were removed yesterday to a point three miles nearer Harper's Kerry. This movement may mean something, or it may have been made merely for convenience sake. At any rate it is regarded here with some in terest. Harper's Ferry is now held in large force by our troops, and is evidently regarded as an im portant point iu tbe position of the army ol the l'otomac. Of other movements ol troops I taking place 1 shall say nothing, liurnside's i corps lias not gone to Harper's Kerry. 1 may say, however, that all indications here bespeak renewed activity on the part of the army. Thu rebel accounts of the late battles create some disgust, but more amusement among tbe officers and soldiers. A ride from tbe centre of tile army of the l’otomac to its right wing at Williamsport, gives an impressive idea of the immense num ber of men and prodigions amount of materi al that lues lieen brought together. Kor thir teen miles the eye never loses sifclit of raui|H\ ini' uispnicu tome I noune says among Nelson's last words were, “I am murdered.” Gen. Davis is still at liberty.

Having been requested to read the New York Herald of to-day, so far as it descrilies the purposes and doings of the late conference of Governors at Altoona, and happening to lie the only member of that conference now in this city, 1 do not hesitate to say that the im plications contained in the correspondence from Altoona, are without foundation in fact. The meeting was characterized by the most kindly feeling, harmony of sentiment and unity of action in the support of the govern ment in a most vigorous prosecution of the war for the suppression of the rebellion.

The Daily News editorially taunts the friends of the South with jubilation over the triumph of the slave [lower, and asks who is to lie the better for it? It says should the hopes of tlie English friends of secession lie realized, and twenty niilllions of freemen of tile North' puslllaniniously consent to let six millions in the South give law to their conti nent, we may soon expect to see them arrest ing the free exercise of tin; l ight of trade on the coast of Africa; we shall lind that they will be as little disposed to defer to our notions about tlie African slave trade, as they have been to accept the doctrines of New England about tin’ slave bade between tlie States. The Times says tlie ideas of organizing a series of C'awnpore massacres may tie a legiti mate mode of warfare, but its success is not probable; indeed it is ditticult to see that a proclamation by a besieged or fugitive Presi dent can have greater etlbct than the procla mation urging the negroes to revolt, issued by such Generals as Hunter and Phelps. It trusts Mr. Lincoln will refrain, which will be at once 11 Mini )il II l iila.t* -anil w liioli ill advance the federal cause, hut deepen mid make eternal hatred lietweeu the two sections.

The game is lost, and Washington knows it if New does not. lie says the aliolitionists are de stroying the Union by their frantic efforts to save it. The Times’ Liverpool correspondent says the Chamber of Commerce presented an ad dress to Mr. Saing, who replied in a lengthy speech on India. He said England could not expect more than a million and a quarter of hales from India during the next twelve months, and if therefore it should lie impossi ble to get the cotton raised in the Southern States, the present crisis must go on with force for the next twelve months; but he believed that not many months would elapse before the termination of the struggle, and the recogni tion of the Southern Confederacy by England and the other Great Powers.

Particulars or the Itinrtler of Urn. Nelson. Louisville, Sept. 29. At the Galt House, at b o’clock this morn ing, a difficulty occurred between Brig. Gen. Jeff C. Davis aud Maj. Gen. Nelson. It ap pears Hint there lias been a jUfficuity betweeu the parties lot some time. lieu. Nelson was in the office of the Gait House, and Davis shoke to him, hut Nelson refused to listen to him, and used some insulting language. Davis immediately borrowed a pistol aud followed Nelson, w ho was going up stairs to his room, and whilst ou the stairs Davis shot him, the hall entering the heart. Nelson walked to his room, aud was laid ou a urallrass, where he soon alter died. There are many conflicting accounts of the shootine of Gen. N’cUon tie la.i. About ;t week ago Nelson placed Davis in command of the Dome Guard forces of the city. At night Davis reported to Nelson the number of men working on the entrenchments and enrolled for service. Nelson cursed him lor not having more. Davis replied that he was a General officer, ami demanded the treat ment ol a gentlemen. Nelson, in an insulting manner ordered him to report at Cincinnati, aud told him he would order the provost mar shal to eject him from the city. This morn ing, Gov. Morton of Indiana, and Gou. Nelson were standing near the desk iu the Galt House, when Gen. Davis approached aud requested Gov. Morton to witness a conversation be tween himself and Gen. Nelson. He demand ed of Nelson an apology for the rude treat ment he had received las't week. Nelson, be ing a little deal, asked him to speak louder. Davis again demanded an apology. Nelson denounced him and slapped him iu the face. Davis stepped back, clinched his list,aud again demanded an apology. Nelson slapped him in the face and again denounced him as a coward. Da vis turned away, pi ocured a pistol from a fricud, and followed Nelson, who was going up stairs. Davis told Nelson to defend himself immediately, thereon tiring. The ball pene trated his felt breast and Gen. Nelson died in about at) minutes, lien. Nelson requested to see his old friend, Kev. Mr. Talbot, rector of Calvary Episcopal Church, who was then at the (ialt House. Mr. Talbot administered the sacrament according to the lonnsof the church the Geueral repeating the service alter the minister, aud refused to talk on auyothcr sub ject. lie regretted that lit: kad not long ago turned his attention to religion.

POETRY. From the Boston Transcript. After the Shadowy the Morning* The tempest mav dash oiathe vale ami hill, But the sunshine will smile behind it!— Tin- caverned rock hide the mountain rill, Vet a gleam from above will find it; Gladness will sleep upon grief’s pale breast To soften the voice of its warning— Over the darkness sweet Hope will rest, And after the shadows, the morning. Life may grow darkened, though love has thrown The strength of its light around it Till longer and deeper the shadows grown, Jlide the halo of bliss that crowned it; Cloud* mav float down on our valleys of peace, And crash our meek flowers with scorning, Vet never this song in our spirits shall cease— After the shadows, the morning. Never so closely does pain fold its wings, But the white robe of sympathy’s near it; And each tear that the dark hand of misery wrings, Brings the touch of a blessing to cheer it; As fades the dim night at the coming of dav, When it weaves its bright web of adorning, So floateth pale grief from our life path away, Comes, after our shadows, the morning. MISCELLANY. Doings of the Mackerel Brigade. Orpheus C. Keer, the correct war correspon dent of the Sunday Mercury, writes as follow s respecting t ho movements of the Mackerel Brigade. Knowing that the Mackerel Brigade was making preparations to entrap the Southern Confederacy at Molasses Junction. I ascended to the upper gallery of my architectural steed, Pegasus, on Tuesday, in order that I might not lie unduly hurried on my journey. Taking Accomae on my way to the battle-field, my boy, I called upon Colonel Woliert U'obison. wlio is superintending preparations tor the draft there, and was witness to an incident suitable to be recorded in profane history. The draft in Accomae, my boy, is positively to take place on the 11th of September; lint it is not believed that the enrollment can be fin ished liefore the 15th; in which ease, the draft must take place on the 20th. In fact, the Judge Advocate of Accomae states positively that the conscription will commence on the 1st of October: and volunteering is so brisk that no draft may lie required. At least, such is the report of those best acquainted with the more decisive plans of the War Department, which thinks of joining the Temperance Socie ty. The exempts were filling their papers of ex emption w ith Colonel Woliert Wohinson, my boy. and among them was one chap with a swelled eye, a deranged neck-tie, and a hat that looked as though it might have been used as an elephant’s foot-bath. The chap came in witli a wavy walk, and says he: “Being a married mau, the war has no ter rors for me; hut 1 am obliged to exempt my self from military affairs on account of a cata ract in my eves.” Colonel Wobert Woliinson looked af him sympathizing!;-, and says he: “You might possibly do for a major-general, my son, as it is blindness principally that char acterises a majority of our present major-gen erals in the field: but fearing your absence from home might cause a prostration in the liquor business, I will accept your cataract as valid." The poor chap sighed until he reached the first hiccup, and then says he “I wish I could cure this here cataract, which causes my eyes to weep even.in the ab sence of ail woe.” “Do your eyes liquidate so freely?” says the colonel, w ith the air^f a family physician. “Yes, said the poor chap, gloomily; “they are like two continual mill-streams.” “Mill-streams!” said Colonel Woliinson, meditatively, "mill-streams! Why, then, you’d better dain your eyes.” I think, my boy, I say I think, that this kindly advice ol Colonel Wobert Woliinson must have been misunderstood in some way; for an instant departure of several piously-in clined recruits took place precipitately, and the poor chap chuckled like a fiend. It is the great misfortune of our mother tongue, my boy, that words of widely difiereut meanings have precisely the same sound, and in using one you seem to be abusing another.

D. 18(52, entitled “An Act t«* provide internal revenue to support the Govern ment and to pay interest on the public debt.” In compliance with the provisions of said Act and instructions of the Commissioner ok Internal Hevesue, I hare divided snid District into eleven divisions, ami appoint an Assistant Assessor in each, as follows: The 1st division comprises the towns of York, Wells, Kcnncbunk, Kcnnebunkport, and the city of iliddeford; Joseph Braodon. Jr., of York, Assist ant. 2d division, the towns of Kittery, Eliot, South Berwick, Berwick and North Berwick: Theodore A. Hollins, ot South Berwick.

Gross, of New Gloucester, As.-fataut. 11th division, the towns of Freeport, Brunswick, Harpswell, Pownal and Yarmouth: Hezkkiah B .nr.A-sH, oi rreepori, Assistant. The act under which these assistant* are ap|>ointcd took effect on the 1st dav of September instant. Citizen* residing in the large business centres of this district have doubtless read it, aud can hence l'onn their own conclusions in relation to its provis ion*; but a* there are many in the agricultural sec tion* who may have been unable to obtain a copy for examination, I wish to call their attention to some of its principles. Soon after the rebellion broke out, Congress found it necessary to assess a small direct tax on the sever al States, to maintain the credit of the countrv. The State* bring authorized to assume the payment of the sum demanded of them, had the power to assess it upon all the property within their limits. Farms and other real estate being, from their na ture, more exposed than other object* of taxation, would suffer severely from the constant draft lor money, created in sustaining the government during •Ms war, and they could not long endure the burden a direct tax would impose upon them. Maine's proportion of that tax has been liquidated and paid. In order to provide in part for the future expense* of the war, Congress wisely determined to raise money from the people without State interven tion, and without taxing the producing c asses. To effect this object, aud to make the tax equal in every State, they have passed what lias been termed an Ex cise Act. Passing by the farmer, the mechanic, the fisherman, the lumberman, and many other pursuit* so essential to our prosperity as a people, this act levies its light contributions upon the wealth, the Inxuries, the pleasure*, and business of the countrv. It confine* it* operation* chiefly to the cities, towns and village*, and gathers it* revenue* from the chan nels in which floats the money of the countrv. It does not tax real estate of any description, nor with a very few exception*, persona) property. The excess ore.*40 ounce* of silver spoon* or plate, and riding carriage* of all descriptions, valued with the harm-s* at J*75 and upward*, must he assessed. With the exception of these two items, there is not prob ably a farmer nor a mechanic in this district, within the act. These are taxed at a sum so inconsiderable that it is to be hoped every citizen who desires the perpetuity of his government will, in this terrible cri sis of its affairs, assume cheerfully hi* proportion of its noeemary burdens, and if he is fortunately the owner of an article liable to be assessed, put a value upon it which shall bring it within the act. It may Im* the onlv opportunity he will ever have to contri bute a dollar for tin* preservation of his government. The professional man flu* retail trader whose -•ales exceed one thousand dollars per year—the man ufacturer of any article the sales of which exceed six hundred dollar* per year—the hotel keeper—the man whose yearly Income exceed* *ix bundled dol lars, and several other employments are to be assessed. It i* presumed all such are conversant wilh the pro visions of this act. I would call their attention to sections from six to eleven, inclusive, ami section fffty-eight. These sections impose the duty ti|»ou every person liable to be assessed lor a tax or license, to call imme diately upon the assistant assessor and make up and sign their several assessment*. If they neglect so to do. he is required to increase their tax fifty ja r cent., and no discretionary authority is vested in the assis tant or the assessor to make any abat. ment of this amount. 8ce soction 11. It will 1m* perceived by a careful examination of these sections, tliat Congress, relying upon the patri otism of the business men of the country, proceeded upon the hypothesis that every one liable to be taxed would substantially assess himself, and sign the bill* fixing the amount'he was to pay. If the act. there fore i* complied with, the assistant assessor is hut a recording officer, w ho receives and properly enters tlie lists delivered him by the citizen. and his duty in relation to Axing a valuation upon objects liable to taxation, is rather advisory than absolute. In order however to prevent the selfish, the indifferent, or the traitorous, trom escaping tb«ir proj»er proportions of the public burden, Congress has fixed the penalties for their neglect, prescribed in section 11. Having U*eu intrusted by the 1‘rcsident with the duty of seeing that these tax liats an- properly pre pared, and seasonably delivered to the collector of this district, I respeftnllv request all good citizen* within ft to call immtjiturly upon tlie assistant asses sor of the assessment district where they reside, aud deliver him lists as required in the sixth section of the act. He will give all persons the necessary in formation to enable them to comply with its provis ion*, and furnish blanks therefor. NATH G. MARSHALL. Assessor's offic CRv buildings, 1 l’ortland.
