THE BANNER. RICH1K3 CQBBALEY, Editor. PLYMOUTH IXD. Thursday Morning, April I 28, 1SJ3. fjAdi'ci'fiscniciits to insure insertion, must Le Landed in ly Tuesday proceeding the day of publication. Wher is our street commissioner? Some of our streets have need of his presence. Ciiucciies is I'lyjioutii There are four organized churches in this town, whose names are as follows: Methodist. Baptist, Presbyterian and Christian the latter was organized last Sunday. William II. Doty who was tried in the Court cf Common Fleas, last week for larceny, was acquitted; and Seth Hussy who was indicted with him, was also acquitted without a trial the Prosecutor having entered a nolle prosique. Our jail is therefore empty again. "We learn that Air. Vauvactei's mill dam on Yellow River has been almost entirely swept away during the past week. And still worse Fuller's dam is in nearly the same situation. This will not be good news to this community, for it was confidently expected that the new gristmill so much needed here would be put in operation in a few days; but from present appearance we will be doomed to disappointment for some time to come. The dams were injured by floating sawlogs over them before the water was high enough. The citizens ol Rochester are making arrangements to have their town incorporated. So says the Flag. We shall expect soon to hear of their making arrangemeats to have a telegraph office also. Fulton Couäty Flag. The above is the title of a neutral paper just started in Rochester, Fulton couuty, Ind., Pershing & Hoover proprietors, and D. R. Tershing formerly of the Warsaw Demo erat, is the editor. Success to you gentlemen. Some of our Fulton county subscribers have given us notice to stop their papers, from the fact that a paper has been started in their county, and they desire to sustain it. We are sorry to lose them, but cannot say anything against their doing so, for it is right that they should support their own paper.and if they cannot take the Banner, we say take the Flag. And now we ask our citizens to look at the matter in its true light, and if they wish the paper to continue in this county, it will be necessary to lend a helping hand. Think of it friends. The Trustees of Center township have levied a tax of 25 cents on the hundred dollars, for Township purposes, for the present year. The Trustees of th several Townships will find it very convenient to take the county paper, as they will Hind by consulting the new Statutes that some advertising will be necessary. Of the 27 trustees in this county, four take the Banner. It is not because these men are not able to pay for the paper, but because they formerly did not feel any particular interest in the legal business of the county. But now the card has been tnrned, and it is of importance to them that they should know what is going on in the entire county, and especially in their own townships. Likewise when a meetin is called by the Trustees for the purpose of levying a tax for building school houses, supporting schools or li braries, is it not of importance that every Toter should know il? and how can they, if they do not take the paper in which the notice is published? We trust that all of our citizens will duly consider this matter, and then act as they think best. Death of Vice I'mi.Ient Kins Our last issue contained a notice of the continued illness of the Vice President, but ere it had reached the hands of many of our readers, the melancholy intelligence of his death was before us. His tedious illness has rested upon the minds of his countrymen for several months past, and at one time, our readers may recollect, that his fellow-citizens were so solicitous in regard to his health, that a slight change for the worse led to the premature announcement ofhisdeath, but how the stern reality forces itself upon us that the Hon. Wir. R. King of Alabama is no more. He arrived at hie plantation on the 17th inst. and expired on the 18th. By this event. Hon. David Athison of Missouri is the Vice President, pro tern.

For tlie Banner. FINANCIAL. Mr. Cokbaley. To a reflecting mind, should it chance to be engaged upou the subject, there must appear something radically wrong, if not oppressive, in the mode of assessing and taxing the citizens of this Stale under our present revenue law. The Constitution ot the State provides: (see article 10, 1st Foction.) "The General Assembly shall provide by law, for a uniform and equal rate of assessment and taxation; and iull prescribe such regulations as shall secure a just valuation for taxation of all property, both real and personal," &c. The definition given to "personal property" by the legislature, in complying with the foregoing requisition, furnishes grounds for complaint, too manifest to be overlooked. For example, see 1st vol. of the late Revised Statutes, page 110 and we find, subject to taxation, "the value of all demands against any person or body corporate." Also, horses, wagons and farming implements, &c, &c. In order to test the propriety and constitutionality of taxing notes, book accounts and other demands, we will find nur neighbor A has a good horse which he sells to B for $100 00. on the 1st of November, taking his note without interest, payable in six months. B keeps the horse until the 25th of December following and sells him to C for SI 10 00 taking his note payable in three months without interest. On the first of January the assessor calls to know the amount of property, (including notes, accounts, &c.,) for taxation. He finds in A's possession the note of B. for 6100 00, and that B has C's note for 8110 00, both of which arc taxed, and then the horse is taxed as the property of C thus the single item of property worth but 8100 00, is taxed at 8310 00; and how far the same evil may be traced, it is unnecessary to illustrate. Again, witness the following instance, in which you call upon our neighbors, Belangee & Elliott on the first of November, and get of their manufacture: One 2 horse wagon, 75 00 Large Doane plow, 12 00 " Small do. do. 10 00 Wheelbarrow, 3 00

Amounting to 8100 00 This account remains upon their books unsettled on the first of January following, when the assessor calls, and they are taxed with the amount charged for this property, and you are taxed upon the articles themselves, and it they should be transferred through a dozen hands, each purchaser giving a note, or standing charged on book, the imposition is proportionate. If there is not a species of oppression recognized by our present mode of taxation, I am at a los3 to determine what oppression is. X. The Vice Presidency Vacant. By the death of Mr. King, the office of Vice President is vacant, and will remain so until the next election of President and Vice President. The President of the Senate pro tem. (who is now Mr. Atchison, of Missouri.) is not Vice President by reason of the death of that officer. He is merely the presiding offiicer of the Senate, and 1 he constitution makes no provision for filling a tacanv; in the Vice Presidency. But in case of the inability or death of both the President and Vice President of the United States, the President of the Senate pro tempore, and in case there shall be no President of the Senate, then the Speaker of the House of Representatives for the time being, shall act as President of the United States until the disability be removed or a President shall be elected.' This is according to the act of Congress of March, 1792. The Vice Presidency, says the New York Herald, has been vacant before this time, on the following occasions, viz: Twice by the death of the vice Presidents, viz; George Clinton. April, 1812; his term expiring March 3, 1813. Elbridge Gerry, November. 1814; his term expiring March 3, 1817. Once by the resignation of John C. Calhoun, December 23, IS32 ; his term expiring March 3 1833. Twice by the death of Presidents Harrison and Taylor, and the consequent accession of Vice presidents Tyler and Fillmore to the Presidency the former in April, 1811 ; the latter in July, 1850 leaving the Vice Presidency vacant for the remainder of their respective terms, and the President of the Senate with the right of succession to the Presidency. The powers and duties of the Vice President and the President of the Senate pro tem, are precisely the same, except that the latter votes as a Senator and has the casting vote. Webster Medal. The Baltimore American says an elegant medal, of the Sargest medallion size, has Leen got up at the instance of the friends of Mr. Webster in commemoration of that great statesman It is some whit similar to the Clay medal, and bears on ouc side an admirable profile

of Mr. Webster in high ralief; on the reverse is an Ionic pillar sustaining a globe, the inscription, 1 still live, and in the back ground a lepresentation ol Faucuil Hall, the Capitol, and othtr buildings connected with Mr. W.'s public life. Within the milling is a broad un.l richly sculptured wreath enclosing the words 'Liberty and Union, now and forever one and inseparable.' The medal has been struck in gold, silver and copper.

LXiraorJiiUry jailllflT li?d. In the early part of the last century, a physijian named ngricoia, living at llatisbon, in Germany, obtained great celebrity by certain discoveries which he declared be had made as to the multiplication of plants and trees. He could produce, he said, from a small branch, or even from a leaf, six large fürest trees in the course of an hour, through the sole instrumentality of lire. He published several works on the subject, one of which was published at Amsterdam, in 1720. Its title was, Agriculture, parjaite. or Souxelle Vecouverte,' &e. It has been supposed that he bad learned the secrets of the Hindoo jugglers, whose feats in the same line traordinarv character sow ine seeu oi any uee tne spectators r;i nr in the part h am n n r a f .u K. alistical words pronounced over itf a mulberry, a plum, or walnut plant, is! gradually seen springing upward until ill , v.becomes a large tree, with its natural fruit depending from its branches. 2ot is this all. The fruit is plucked and given to the spectators to eat; and while he is engaged in partaking of the enchanted dates or walnuts, the branches of the miraculous tree are crowded with birds of every plumage, who fill the air with their melody. A signal is given, and the tree, with its feathered inhabitants, disappears in an instant, leaving behind it no trace of its existence! The author of the ''Oriental Annual." an English gentleman of unquestionable veracity, gives an almost incredible description of a juggling performance at which he was present. The operator introduces into the rniddl- of the circle a naked little nirl. about eMit vears old. in a wicker basket. The girl is shown to all the spectators. T:ie operator then D O J enters into a conversation with her.which , soon assumes an angry tone; he threatens to kill her with a drawn sword: she sudnlicates lor merrv. and while her piteous i cries grow louder and louder, he plunges) tlirt it-asnmi ;.- lio Vi r t- r v (ii-n r r I Ii raa ! times successively. The earth is dyed with blood, while her asonizieji croans announce dissolution. The spectators are ready to fall on the wretch whom they believe to be guilty of so barbarous a murder, when the little girl enters the circle from without ia her usual attire and as gay as if nothing had happeued to hit. A still more extraordinary feat than that, was performed in the presence of the Mogul Emperor Jehaugire, who gave an account of it in his autobiography. The performers produced a living man, whose head they cut oft" in the first in stance. They next divided the limbs) from the trunk, and the mutilated remains lay on the ground for some time. A curtiin was then extended over the spot, and one of the perf jrmers putting himself under the curtains he emerged from it again in a ft.w minutes, followed by the individual who was supposed to have been so completely dissected! His Mogul Majesty gives the followingminute account of some other performances, by the same jugglers, which are very wonJcrfuh TI I -w 1 1 - e tv o 1 1 tkm rV tl 11 ,1 !li Vlllfr r i " .i . .. f , .. . . . i (111 IV undr-iii'imf ia bum ktmii nut --iffk- I vk m i uiii i u i i il: u io iiuiiu u-i in, oui i.uwi two game cocks uf the largest fise and great beauty, which immediately assailed each other, and fought with such force and fury, that tlif ir wings emitted sparks of fire at every stroke. This continued for the full space of an hour, when th-'y put an end to the combat by throwing a sheet over the animals. Again they withdrew the sheet, and there appeared u brace of partridges, with the most brilliant and beautiful plumage, which immediately began to tune their throats as if there was nothing human present, picking at i worms with the same sort of chuckles as they are heard to use on the hill side. The sheet was now thrown, as in the other instance, over the partridges, and when again withdrawn, instead of those beautiful birds, there appeared two frightful blacksnakes. with flat heads and crimson bellies, which with open mouth and head erect, and coiled together, attacked each other with the greatest fury, and so continued to do, until, as it appeared, they became quite exhausted, when they fell asunder. "They made an excavation in the earth in the shape of a tank or reservoir, of considerable dimensions, w hich they requested us to fill with water. When this was done they spread a covering over the place, and after a short interval, having removed the cover, the water appeared to be one sheet of ice, and they dtsired that some of the elephant keepers might be directed lo lead the elephants across. Accordingly, one of the men set his elephant upon the ice, and the animal walked over with as much case and safety as if it were a platform of solid rock, remaining for some time on the surface of the frozen pond without occasioning the slightest fracture in the ice. As usual, the sheet was drawn across the place, and being again removed, every vestige of ice, and even moisture of any sort, had completely disappeared. "They procured a blank volume of the purest white paper, which was placed iu

my hands to show that it contained no f figures or tny colored pages whatever, of . which I satisfied myself aud all around. One of the men took the volume i n his haud, and the fust opening exhibited aj pjge of bright fed sprinkled with gold, ; tiirmiixr .i !i!;imL- t:, hint culn liillr ul '

But of al1 the performances, this latter ui wie voiume ot paper was Hat wliicll a Horded me the greatest delight;so many pictures and extraordinary changes having been brought utnbtr view, that I must confess my utter inability to do justice in the description." In observing upon the extraordinary nature of thes performances, the Emperor put aside the supposition that they were to be ascribed to a mere visual deception; "They very evidently partake," he says,, "of something beyond the exertion of human energy. 1 have heard it stated that the art has been called the Asinaynian, (celtstial) and 1 am informed that it i also known and practiced to a con""duie exieni in me nations ot iu- . . . i rül,e- 11 ma) De Sau, mtleea, that mere exists in some men a peculiar anil essential faculty which enables them to accomplish tilings far beyond the scope of ! hu,nan exerlion. such as frequently to UJmtJ u,e suDteny oi me unuer- ! standing to penetrate. i nalUräll What virtue there is in a stone it is for sts to discover; but it is a fact, often and often witnessed that "Norway" runs in all directions in search of a stone, which he will take up in his mouth, and then slacken his pace till the two dogs come up, when neither of them will touch him. He is then premitted quietly to walk oft" with the hint that the btone has saved his bacon. He is watched, however, and should he drop the stone,

.t -..i t ii -I way to escape witu a whole skin, lhat they are not afraid of his throwing th? stone is evident, as they don't run away; but it is likely it is a point of honor not to molest him wheu his mouth is full, and when he is not iu a position to defend himself or to give ihein battle. When "Norway" is met or teen by any person, with a stone in his mouth, so well is it know n that "Foxy" and "Scotchy" are in chasn, that they are looked for, and found not to be far distant. "Norway" is a verv knowing fellew, and a cunning i dog. too; and, being aware of his advantage in tlie water, will often, for a bit of a lark, a stroll upon the shore, when he knows "Scotchy" is out of the way. He has not to wait long till he is accosted by "Foxy," to know what he wants tliero. "rsonvy then retreats backward till he gels on a favorite pro- - 1 jt-ct ing rock, about fifteen feet above the level of the sea, when he will lay hold of Foxy," and tumble with him to the; bottom, where they both fight till they are nearly drowned. After being mutually convinced that they have got enough of it, they swim ashore, shake oil" the water, and separate, like a pair of duellists, pleased, no doubt, that the "affair" has entailed no fatal consequences. Daily Standard. From tlie Cincinnati Times. Ffiinrcaiid her .Moaarrli. We scarcely open a Uritish newspiper or periodical, or look over a debate ii the "Imperial parliament," without seeing something on the subject of the "French Emperor" and his ' intentions." The strange transformation and magical metamorphosis of the Arabian Nights do not, we believe, exhibit an example of so startling a change from obscurity to the pinnacle of earthly power and grandeur, as has been manifested in the romantic and picturesque carter of Napoleon HI. Three years ago he was a constable in one of the Wards in Loinhn, zealously engaged in repressing municipal disorders. Now the whole liritish Empire may, without much exaggeration, be said to tremble at the sound of his name. -Fifteen or twenty years ago, or probably not so far back, he was a houseless, homeless vagabond loafing about the purlious of the gambling halls of New York, arraigned before the Police Court for riotous conduct, and again prosecuted in New Jersey for shooting dogs. Now, when a New York politician or stock broker scans the horizon for 'signs and wonders' iu the political sky of Europe, the most portentous and baleful star that blazes iu red and angry colors on ihe zenith, is that of this ci-deiant loafer and roue, h ho at the periods mentioned would have been driven with contumely from his door.- -Verily this modern genius of Democracy, the people, is a very potent spirit, and quite throws in the shade all Iiis prede.

His progress has interrupted nearly all the trade west and south of Futhau ami Nanking, and this has so materially aflected the markets here that business has been, for a month past, quite at a stand still. Money is, in cousfquence, more difficult to be obtained, the rates of exchange more disastrous, ami the prices of foreign imports lower than have been known since the opening of this port to foreign commerce.
