The friends of Senator Simmons' tax bill
are confident that it will bo adopted. The
section relating to the tnx on incomes pro
vides that the re shall bo levied annually
upon the income of every person residing
in the United States, from whatever source
derived, between $000 and $0,000, n tns
ol 3 per cent.; from $(1,000 lo $ti0,00O, u
tax of 5 per cent.; on incomes from prop
erty of citizens of the United States resid
ing abrood, exceeding $0,000, a tax of 1 J
per cent.; incomes of religious nnd literary
societies arc subject to the same tax as
those of individuals, except in casts of so
cieties whose income is devoted to the cir
culation of the Holy Scriptures, or reli
gious tracts', or which support religious
missions. So much income, however, ns is
derived from the interest on the securities
of tho United States shall bo tnxed per

liiii Thini;. The Oregon papers tell of
men making five hundred thousand dollars
per day up nt Salmon. With about the
-ame approximation to truth, we might say
that there are miners in this county who
arc milking twenty-five million dollurs per
day, and don't make much fuss about it
either. It was discovered, one day last
week, that Shasta Putte is one solid mass
or g )id, with tho exception of nbcut four
feet or snow nnd rubbish on tho surface.
The gold is eighty-nine carats fine, nnd or
a deep grcc n color. Occasionally veins or
first water diamond are found, raging in
size from a two bushel basket up to a com
mon hay-stack. To work these mines, no
tools nro required except a box of matches
with which to build n lire to melt off the
snow. The only difficulty is, that for the
Inst milo before rcachi.ig the gold region
every step you tukc in the direction of the
gold, you 'slip two, nnd sometimes three,
backwards. This slight obstacle, how
ever, it is expected will be removed ns soon

stands his country men thoroughly, states
in a public letter
the nations of tho enrth a peoplu who enter
tain toward tho Wiled States of America
so much affection ns Is felt by thelrWi."
Women should set good examples, for
the men nro ulwnys following thetn.
everything is seized for the army, and even
the soldiers have been on half rations for a
week, with no prospect of even this supply
continuing a great length of time. They
represent the rebel army, or a great por
tion of it, ns demoralized nnd dissipated to
such nn extent that they only hold together
by the most vigorous appliances of martial
law. The work of conscription, however,
is progressing. The roads to Richmond
are thronged with unarmed men, old and
young, being driven nlong under strong
armed guards. They represent that no
people in modem limes have suffered moro
than the people or Virginia are now suffer
ing. Every household is in niottrnins: nt
the prospect of approaching famine. They
sny it was announced at Petersburg on
Wednesday, that Penuregard had arrived
at Richmond. Jeff Davis and the military
authorities declared their intention to fight
to the death ut Richmond; but strong sus
picions were entertained that it was really
their purpose to abandon the city after a
short defense. A largo number of women
from Richmond had reached Petersburg.
They represent tho distress prevailing in
Richmond as beyond description. Threats
were made by the soldiers from the G ulf
States that if they had to abandon the city,
they would lay.it in ashes; fears were had
thnt these threats would bo enrried out.
The troops nt Richmond and vicinity num
ber nbotit 00,000, including unarmed and
poorly armed or recent levies, who were
being armed with pikes.
The rebels made a dash nt Gen. Ranks'
line ut Front Roval (Warren county, Va )
on Slav -21. and attempted to bum the

An (lection was held in leimesscc on
tho 2-21 Tor judicial officers. Tho vote in
Nashville stood: Circuit Judge, Rrien,
Union. 570; secessionist, 70d. The seces
sionists generally voted, whilo Union men
regarded the election ns invalid. Gov.
Johnsew will give no commissions to seces
sionists who may bo elected.
Tho President and Cashier of tlio ontiK
of Union linvo been arrested by order of
Gov. Johnson, for treason.
It is estimated that 1000 deserters are
nt Portsmouth and Norfolk from the force
with which the rebel Gen. linger left Nor
folk, and about the sumo number arc scat
tered through the wooels. lueir coneiiuon
is most deplorable.
Tho Minnesota will soon go to Norfolk,
nnd then tho whole fleet will linvo oban
doned Old Point and taken position at the
old naval station. Numerous wrecks, sunk
in tho harbor nnd river by the rebels nro
to be removed immediately, including the
wreck of the Mernmac.
The Slavor nf Norfolk nnd members of
tho Council still refuse to take tho oath of
allegiance, nud nil intercourse with the peo
ple of Norfolk nmi roristnouin is inerciore
stopped. Gen. Wool sent a proclamation
to tho people on tno buii, not. tying mem
thnt the matter wns entirely in their hands.
A . Bonn ns thev would neknowledgo tlie
supremacy of the Government they should
enjoy its fostering care; but while they re-
mnincd in tlieir present reociuous invu
they will bo cut off rrotu all the adviinmg.
es of trade and commerce, and will be
governed by strict mnrtiul law.
An enthusiastic Union meeting was held
nt Portsmouth on tho night of tho 22d.
Not less thnn 800 were present. The pro-,
priety of the course of tho Government In
refusing to allow provisions to cotno there
lor loyal people was criticized. The scarc
ity of provisions nnd tho necessaries or lifo
is so grent thnt tho poorest classes live al
most entirely on fish nud oysters! The se
cossionists nro nenrly nil wcnlthy, and had
laid iu a stock of provisions long since
Gen. Ruriisido lias seized nil tho Com
missioners of Edei.ton, N. C, nnd taken
them to his liendqiiartcrs at Newborn, hold
ing them ns hostages for tho snfo roturn of
tho Union pilot who wns seized by tho reb
els while on a visit to his wife. It Is said
tho rebels determined to linng mm. uen.
Rurnsidii intends that nil tho Commission
ers shull swing In enso tho rebels execute,
their threats.
