The public have cxten decided, in an appeal from the District ded confidence to the Roard of Directors rw nf a iini,nn,T Tr, !,., . . , , 7 , county was plaintiff that shares of Bank btoclc are not suDject to taxation lor county purposes. The following is the decision of the Court, as delivered by one t d, -r j of the Judges: fc j ue qucsuoii acre is, are suaies Ui Bank stock subject to taxation for county purposes? By the law of 1844, section 32, 'shares of stock in any Bank' are made taxable for State and county pur poses,' and section 33 prescribes the measure of the State tax and mode of collecting it. But all this was changed by the law of 1S50 regulating Banks. By its section 21, the tax on dividends is considerably increased, and by section 20 a direct tax is added on the stock it self, with a-proviso that the fctock shall not be subject to taxation for any other purpose; and tins provision remain? in a, a- the supplementary law of 1552, pamphlet laws, page 443, which repeals this direct tax; and the result is that the 21st sec tiou oi tuc act or ioou is tne only run for taxing Bank stock, and it is not taxa ble for county purposes. We cannot ap preciate the distinction that would make .1 1 a.ii i r i tne snares in tnc Hands or tne owners liable, while the capital stock is expressly exempt "And we can see reasons that justify M. e k..i. ,,.ii. r. - ..n IjUV; I-AUIIIIILIUII Ui UUlIiV SLUUft. jiuui an other than State taxes. The State needs this source of revenue for its own purposes aud it may not suit to leave it open to general taxation. Moreover, banks are not allowed to deal with their money as they please, and fix their own rate of dis count, and with such restrictions on tbem it might not be just to impose upon them the same burdens that can well be borne by the wealth that is unrestricted in the mode of its employment. Resides this, the burdengpf such taxation is very une qual, most of it escaping taxation by fa voritism, concealment, or carelessness. Picrei8 omsistcaey.

Perry o On Tuesday the 8th inst., our commu nity was thrown into an excitement, by the report that a madman, who is a pau per in the Perry Co. (Penn.) Alms house near this place, had perpetrated a most horrid murder. On going to the spot the terrible report proved only too true. The following arc the circumstances con nected with the dreadful scene: In the afternoon the Steward of the Alms House, Mr. Balthazer, sent three of the paupers into the forest to cut wood, two Irishmen, and a German who is not considered a lu natic, though subject to fits of ungoverna able irrasibility. This man had been troublesome on former occasions, though latterly had behaved pretty well; he was a man of great strength.

The axe entered the right shoulder bone, pased through the ribs, divided the right lobe of the lung and separated the aorta; instant death of course ensued. After the deed was done he took up his axe and went home, where he was put in irons, and will be tried. An inquest was held over the body of the murdered man, and the verdict rendered in accordance with the facts stated. Yours, &c, 11.

The Whole Story, The Albany Knickerbocker under the head of "Independence and Progress, ' tells the whole story of our nation's birth and progress in a remarkably short par agraph for a theme so comprehensive.- The style is rather racy, but decidedly "to the point. ' It is seventy-seven years ago to-day since Uncle Sam was born, aud what an eventlul seventy-seven years they nave been. Seventy-seven year3 ago, the U- nited States was a remote circumstance; they now compose the second commercial nation in the world. In three-quarter's of a century they have revolutionized the world, built up an empire, lieiced our mother, and lenced in a continent, in less than it took Methuselah to get out si -lit . 1 1 ot swaddling clothes, wo have made more canals, tamed more lightning, and bar- nessed more steam, and at a greater cost in money, than tho whole revenues of the world could have paid for the day he got out of his time. In seventy-five years we not only changed the politics of the earth, but its wearning apparel cot- ton shirts being as much tho offspring of the united states, as baiiot-uoxes and democracy. Since tho fourth of July, 177G, the whole world has been to school, ana wnatis nettor, nas learned more com- mon sense than was taught in tho previ- ous four thousand years. Tho problem of sen-government has been solved, and its truth made immortal as Washington' or yellow corn. Its adaption to all the wants of tho most aspiring nation has been made most signally manifested Un- dcr its harmonious working, a republic has grown up m an ordinary lifetime that 'would have taken another system of gov- eminent a thousand years to have bro't about. Yes, in less time than it has taken some green-house plants to arrive at maturity, we nave bunt a nation that has spread itself from Maine to Mexico, from the Atlantic to the iJacihic a na- tion that has . caught moro Mexicans, planted more telegraph posts, and owns more steamboats, than any nation that ever lived or ever will live. For all this. wo again say, thank God, aud praise Thomas Jefferson." B-There 'were 100,859 less votes poll- at our late election in Pennsylvania, than in 1852. . Arrival of the Arabia.

The Czar stated that this would be the ast proposition that he would make or accept. , . The Grand Council or tne jivan, ic was believed, had been called together to. consult on the subject.
