To the Receivers and Collectors in this State :
“5. See. V. The Receivers of Tax
Returns and Collec ois of Taxes, of the
respective counties shall be responsible
to the Executive Department, and be
amenable to such rules in conducting
the duties of their respective offices, as
he Executive may think necessary and
proper.”—Sec T. R. R. Cobb’s Digest,
page 1046.
Therefore, as the Governoi intends
urging upon Hie next Legislature the
propriety of ta.x tig Cotton planted and
raised this .year in this State, and for
the further purpose of sipproximating to
the amount of (’em and other Grain
that will be raised in Georgia during
the present year, 1 am directed by his
Excellency to ins’ruct you to retu-n on
your Digest, and to en er opposite the
name of each tax-payer, the number of
acres of C 'tt<>n and Corn and other
grain p ant d in Georgia during - the pre
sent year. This you can readily do by
using the three last columns printed in
the nr sent Tax Bot ks, ar.d which ;u - e
not used in this office, or the office of
the Clerk of the Inferior Court, to which
yon also return a Digest.
The cohitni s above alluded to, that
you can use, are first, th.) column hea
ded “Aiip'Uiit as-essi-d at of one
per cent.” In this coluint) ( ncltidiug
both ‘‘dollars, ’’ and “cents,”) you can
put the numb' r of acres of Cotton plan
ted. In the next column of “dollars,”
under the. head of “ Total am nut of
Taxes,” you can put the iinuri er of acres
of Corn planted ; and, in th r last or
“cents” column, you can put the tium»
ber of acres planted in other grain.
zXpart from the pur, uses of the Gov
ernor, I cannot but believe that all good
citizens of the State will he happy to
make th s return, and show to the world
what Georgians are d -ing in this our
“day of trial,’’ it: the way of sustain
ing and feeding well our huge Arm;.,
arid the fam les of our brave and pa
tri otic s-'ld.er.t who tire i>o v in the tent
ed Ilel enduring all sor's of wcathrr
and privations, and gallantly and man
fully battling, and offering up their
lives in defence of the rights, the liber
ties, the sanctity of oui horn s, the pre
servation of our pn>pi rty and the main
tenanee of all that we hold dear. Thus
believing, I lupe you wi-l have but lit
tle trouble i:i making thi return. If,
however, I am mistaken, an I any
should fail or refuse to return the num
ber of acres planted as above stti'ed,
you w 11 then obtain the information
from the best source you can, and nut
the amount opposite their names in the
column alluded to. Ami, then, on the
last page of your Book you can men
tion the names of those who refused or
failed to in ike said r turn, and you can
state at the same time tint you made

Indication of Popular Feeling 1* yk*
ited Mates.
Correspondence of the Baltimore San.
Washington, April 17.
The popular elections in Illinoijß and
New York show great Democrttiegains
fn nearly all the Northwestern . and
Western States there is a manifest ten
dency towards a political revolution. If
it should succeed, it might not either
stop the war or re-tore the Union on tlwr
oi l basis, but it would change the par
ty character of the House and of the
Ext c .live. The House wh’cli has to
succeed the present one may be cf a
conservative Democratic complexion.
Ti e Chicago municipal election has
r suited in the triumph of the Democrats
by 1,500 inaj >rity. lion. F. C. Sher
man is the Mayor elect.
The chartei election at Daytpn, Ohio,
held on the first Monday in April, was
carried by the D miocrats by a majority
tanging Iron 200 to 300, against a
much larger majority in opposite direc
tion o e year since. S. ringfield, here
tofore a strong Republican town, has
elected Win. D. Hall, Democrat, as May
or.
The town ele< tions in New York and
ether States also show ihatnhe Conser
vative Republicans are disposed to re
pu date the Weiidell-Phillips-ozing of
the party, and are joining hands with
the Democrats on Tuesday e'ectcd tUeir
whole ticket, except for Ahlermsws in
in one of the wards. The average ma
j, rity was about two hundred.
We give these indications of opiiuon
among our en. inies without attaching
importance to them. We base «bat
little hope on the possibility <f any
spon aneous revolution of sciriment
in Yankeeland. Lis very unch as the
Montgomery Advertiser says: “From
time to time for the past six months we
have been regaled, with nanatives of
disttfi’ cti'ii among the people, of muni
ty in the army, and a great and grow
dislike for the further pr isecmion of the
war, but thus far we have failed to see
that this n.u nous and disaff cled spirit
his had any < ffect upon the Yankee
Government. We have had reports of
regiments refusing to fight foi the Lin
coln dynasty any longer, but somehow
thcs< - reports are uev. r fully confirm*
ed. '■
It has been said that the people are
growing restless under the great and
daily incr-si ig but den of taxation which
is being placed upon them, and that they
are cl.imoroiis for the war to cud; but
so fat as we have seen, the oaly terms
on which tht-y arc willing to have the
war cease, are immediate uuaouditional
submission of the South. Not withstand
all the statements to the contrary which
have been made, we believe the North
is as yet, for all practical purposes,
thoroughly united on the war policy of
the Government. II >w long this unity
may last we cam ot tell; but there ap*-
p-arf; to be no greater folly, than that
of looking for a change of sentiment to
come over the North, and bring about
a speedy termination of the War. —
When the South Ims fairly beaten them
on the field < f batt'c we may look for a
peace party at the North, not before.”.
