• ApoLoGY.—Notwithstarling the
high price we pay for paper, we were
mod wofully cheated in the lot we
have lately used. It was almost im
possible to print it in a readable man

TA.:ttgc—The latest dodge
of Sbedy publication' of the
income taxes each citizen has to pay.
The private resources of every
, 1111111.
who has an income suf fi cient to be
taxed, is thus dragged before the
gaping, curious crowd, and becomes
food for all the chattering gossips in
the community. Well may the par
ty in power be classed as the party
of "smelli
bag oat men's loyalty—to Abraham.
Now, it is their money they are af
ter..
The Philadelphia Press led off in
this prying business in this State, and
bas been followed by many small im
itators.
kirWe see Ostia many other dis
tricts, the three years' men furnish-
'to fill the call for men of last year
are taken into the calculation, - and
consequently the quotas of such are
reduced accordingly. In this district
' no difference is made; three-years'
men being counted no more than' one- `
years' men. Now what is the law ?
Do those who made and passed it
know.? Does Provost Marshal Gen
eral Pry, or •any of his subordinates
know ? If not, they, had better learn
it, so as to do "equal and exact jus
tice to all," as the Constitution re
quires.
gray -The Draft took place last week
In Philadelphia, Berks, and many
others 'of the ":counties of this state,
land in consequence the columns of
their papers are'fdled with the names
nY the unfortunates. In Berke coun
ty two men out of every five were
drafted in most of the districts. Beth
el township, in that county, had 118
men drafted c.ut of 294 in the box.—
'The& fmonny is gone and now their
life and blood—is—oennurcretr—srvnts
present "deficiency" draft takes 118
ontof 294, how many new calls will
those who are left be able to 'bear be
fore every man is taken away ? But
nothwithstanding all this, PEACE will
not be made by Lincoln unless all
that has been said and done by him
and his party respecting slavery is
maintained. If the administration,
and the butterflies that revolve 'a
round it, know the sentiments of the
people to-day they would not repel
the Southern people when they come
to make peace. Drafting, sending
and commending others to fight, is
different from doing it themselves;
so is the payment of taxes and the
earning of money therefor, different
from receiving and spending If
the war-ites once experienced AC dif
ference they would moderate their
views.
' THE AVIIENDXVORY TAX BILL.----The
:amendatory Revenue bill hasfinally
passed the Aouie of Congrese.,:wi , th
numerous amendments, among 'which
was one preventing any person not
enrolled for military service (except
such as are physically exempt) from
taking out pedler's licenses. On
smoking tobacco, made of stems, the
tax was fixed at fifteen cents,.and on
all tattier kinds of smoking tobacco
thirty five cents, a, pound. The duty
on diamonds and jewelry fa shodd3r
luxury) was reduced to five per eon
'tam ad valorem. Beer, lager and
other fermented liquors, to remain at
41 per barrel. Substitute brokers are
to pay $lOO license, and $lO on each
substitute accepted. A tax of two
and a half per centum on th 4 net re
ceipts of railroads, canals, steamboats,
ships, barges, canal boats, vessels,
stage coaches, and vehicles transport
ing passengers and property for hire,
- where the net proceeds are $3,000,
and five per cent. on the excess. On
instruments of writing where stamps
have inyen omitted, it was determin
.etithat on payment of $5O the same
might be attached, in addition to the
'cost of the stamp ; but where the
stamp has been accidentally omitted
it may be attached upon merely pay
ing for the same. State banks are
required to pay a tax of ten per cent.
on the amount ofany State bank note

thereby avoid the draft," the aboli-

le and loyal." If that's so why-dont
they eniiit themselves. , We are some
times taken to task by the's, and
our "loyalty" questioned' for rrot
shouting as they do. - Out answer is
that in the first place w© will not act

are unwilling to practice, and, in the
second place, we would - net hafe the

cause of the war, and who are preach

the former. were to go there would
hardly be any need for a draft, at

Tobacco Culture.
Mr. Breslin. . .
• As there is, I. learn, a good
deal of tobacco raised in this and adjoining
counties, mostly or altogether Seedleaf, lest your
editorial of last week on the subject cause a
change.when not warranted, allow me to offer
through your paper a few suggestions to tobacco
raisers. By the way, we do in our Munn
faCture of Tobacco, depend -to any extent, on the
plant raised in this region, hut-for essential rea.
eons must bring our leaf from Missouri or Ken
tucky ; transportation in the leaf 'costing no
more than in a manufactured condition, while
the cost of labor and.tho efficient and expeditious
character of our machinery; superintended -bp a
life-long experienced manufacturer from Ms
souri,,will enable us to produce plug, chewing
and smoking tobacco, that will compare in qual
ity and cheapness with any in the United States.
Unless planters in this section, have a rich
piece of land, or a patch of real good new, they
would perhaps better continue the Seedleaf or
cigar tobacco. If they have a really fertile field,
the cultivation of the Orotioko; Buff, or chewing
tobacco will yield them a crop, which, leaf for
leaf, as compared with Seadleaf,.w ill be twenty
five per cent- in weight, and perhaps fifty per
cent in price to their gain. The leaf , used
,for
chewing has substance, oil, and weight.- Seed
leaf le thin, of very little substance or 'weight
and used for cigars. ,
The seed of either sort n 3 intim sown•now. Se
lect a bed to the sun, burn it well, after dug (to

little sand to aid ilits.oowing, transplant in mine

June, cultivate well; keep off the worms,. and if
the season is favorable and the land good, you
will get a pay ing' crop. .(After •the.seedla sown,
