The wise decision of the legal State government of Louisiana not to come in conflict with the Federal army, leaves that oppressed common wealth but one means of successfully resisting the Kellogg usurpation, namely, by a united refusal to pay the taxes levied for its support. This is a justifiable method of opposition, and, if the. people arc sufficiently united, it will prove effectual. Withholding money supplies is not a new method of confronting tyranny. It is sanctioned by all the early strggles of the English people in de fense of their liberties. The i>ower of the people, through their repre sentatives, to grant or withhold sup plies, has been regarded, for more than two centuries, the bulwark of British freedom; and this principle lias been incorporated into our Con stitution by the provision which re quires all hills for raising revenue to originate in the lower house, and the provision forhiddiug the appropria tions for supporting the army for a longer period than two years—two years being the duration of the terms °t the immediate representatives of the people. The people of Louisana Mill be acting in the spirit of this time-honored safe guard against op pression, if they steadily refuse to P a y taxes for the support of the usurping Kellogg government. The illustrious Hampden, a name scarce ly less revered than that of our own H ashington, earned the gratitude of Ills country by his refusal to pay an illegal tax. And resistance to un warranted taxation was the very es sence of the revolution by which Washington and his compatriots Sained our independence. In refusing to pay taxes to the government, the citizens of Louisia na will have the law clearly on their side. The Republican Committee of Ihe United States Senate has declar ed, after lull investigation, that the Kellogg government was nev*”’ le gally, elected. It Is a necessary con sequence that all its acts are void It has no more right to levy a tax than a State Conference of the Afri can Methodist Episcal Church would have. Refusal to pay taxes for the support of the Kellogg usurpation will be no resistance to latr, but only refusal to recognize a spurious au thority. Nor can Gen. Grant inter vene with Federal troops to force the payment of taxes. The people of Louisiana may in a few months starve out the Kellogg government or force it to surrender, as a garri son jfi a fortified town which cannot be carried by storm may be brought to terms by intercepting its supplies. The usurpers cannot get over the difficulties by borrowing; for capital is cautious, and no man will risk his money in Louisiana bonds issued by a government which the most emi nent lawyers in the United States Senate concur in declaring illegal, when their party bias Would Incline them the other way. The Kellogg usurpation cannot live by borrowing from capitalists, but only by taxing the peopie; and if the people unite in a resolute refusal to pay taxes, the train will have to stop on the track because there will be no ftiel for the locomotive. It may be asked why a bogus gov ernment with the Federal army to back it, cannot collect the taxes by distraint and sale of property, as taxes are collected elsewhere when people arc slack or contumacious.— The reason can be made perfectly intelligible. Ordinarily, the non payers of taxes form but an insignif icant fraction of the community. Their cases arc attended to last; and citizens who have already paid give their moral support to the tax-gath erers from the interest they have in seeing the public burdens equitably distributed. And then the amount of property sold for taxes is small enough to And purchasers. But if the people of Louisiana come to an understanding with one another that Federal troops cannot lielp the usiir- pers because they cannot furnish nations designed to benefit himself, al beit he assumes they are for others well. You remember that Fisk, in his ex animation at Washington, said he knew Gould was befit oti mischief when he tore up pieces of paper. This habit Gould still keeps. He shows his __ vousness and anxiety in no other way. Whenever he is seen walking in Wall street and scattering fragments of let ters or dispatches, the brokers say, : ‘The little joker’s up to something; look out for him!” And, sure enough, he is al ways heard from soon after. He now considers himself the leader of the street, and he is prepared to hold his position at much cost Some persons think him one of the longest-headed operators the Exchange has known : others declare he has merely been lueky, and that he will soon be ‘ cleaned out” by those he fan cies himself superior to. Time will de termine the stuff of which Gould is com posed. If he were*prudent, he could withdraw from active life with his $25,- 000,000, while he has them. But that is not the way of Wall street. Its ex citement having become familiar, must be kept up. All other places and modes of existence, compared to it, appear in- ate and insipid. covery. This board is to have full au thority to condemn to death all persons who are hopelessly insane or imbecile. To secure intelligence and humanity in the exercise of this novel function it is to be entrusted to the elergy—though we do not know any denomination of Christians whose creed would justify the assumption of such duties by ite I ered around my bed m,mstr y' | what wait I for? ’ and affectionate, always winding up with “You see how God has answered my prayer, I know you every one." He said, “I shall retain my senses to the eDd. God has granted me that as a to ken of my acceptance. I have set my house in order. My prayers have all been answered. My children are gath- and now Lord, This is the scheme as gravely presen ted in the Fortnightly Review. Pro fessor Francis W. Newman also advo cates it in the London Spectator. iondfln £ iR|Ujo8 Pennsylvania Rjttroad Company.

The Washington correspondent of the Journal of Commerce, says: “Con gressmen, with their extra pay, are the happiest set in town. Members who last week smoked cigars made of Con necticut seedleaf, and had no credit at the tailor’s, now smoke clear Havanas, wear clean shirts, and disdaining con tact with the vulgar pavement, ride in barouches at $1 50 an hour.

He also said it was not the in tention to water the stock one dollar. buyers for the property seized and offered for sale by the tax collcetors. There are several reasons why property cannot be sold in Louisiana for taxes. In the first place, buyers know that the spurious government couhi not give a good title, and men would be as shy of such property as of bonds offered by the same illegal government. In the next place, the deep sense of injustice which per vades the State and leads men to unite in tills method of opposition, would prevent their bidding on the property of their fellow-citizens. In the third place, the market would be so overstocked and glutted by the greater part of the property of the State being put up at auction at one time, that the few supporters of the Kellogg government would be una ble to furnish enough purchase mon ey to paj the taxes on the property. Most of Kellogg’s supporters are ne groes who live from hand to mouth, and who can neither pay taxes themselves nor advance money on the taxable property of others. If, therefore, there is sufficient concert among the owners of property, the citizens of Louisiana will have no difficulty in starving the* Kellogg into a surrender.—N. Y. World. The Erie Jobber. A New York letter to the St. Louis Globe says: Jay Gould, notwithstanding the $9,- 000,000 he surrendered to Erie (be cause he couldn’t help it), is believed to-day to be worth not far from $25,- 000,000. He may loose most of this next month or next week by some of his vast ventures, or he may gain as much more. It is rumored that' he wants to secure $50,000,000, and then retire, as that is about the sum Corneli us Vanderbilt, Alexander T. . Stewart and William B, Astor are individually worth. If he should gain his half a hundred of millions, his mercenary de vices would only increase. It is always so; the passion for money can never be gratified. Gould is reputed to he of Hebrew descent (his extreme shrewdness and monetary management would indicate this); hut whether he is or not he is an extraordinary financier, prolific in expe dients, and of singular courage in exe cuting hi^emes.

Whether «>r not the buildings will be completed by the time fixed for the great Centen nial at Philadelphia is at present, un known ; but it is proposed to open at the same time, if possible, and to run a very serious opposition to the Philadel phia glorification. The building to be erected will be permanent, and in them will be concentrated a perpetual World’s Fair; a public Museum of Arts. Indus tries, Science and Philosophy, a World’s Library, a grand hall for popular enter tainments, and a Botanical Garden. The main structure will cover a square of ground, and will be in the Oriental style, the centre dome rising to the remarka ble height of five hundred feet, and be ing surrounded with moorish spires and minarets. A New Specific for Small-Pox. The New York Sun says the small pox afflicted communities will be pleased to learn that certain families in Hunts ville, Alabama, during the prevalence of small-pox there found the tea of cimi- cifuga recemosa or black snake root, otherwise known as black pohosh, to be an efficient preventive of small pox, though some were exposed to the disease. Dr. Norris vaccinated the members, but without effect so long as they continued to use the black snake root tea. .After ceasing to use the tea he again vaccina ted them, when the specific effect of the vaccine virus was produced. The sub ject is well worthy the attention of the medical profession. Trilling off Superfluous People A strange scheme has been broached in an English review, for removing out of the world superfluous persons, who, by reason of mental or physical incapac ity, are of no use to society. This seems to be an outgrowth of Darwin’s doctrine* of the “Survival of the Fittest;” and it now denies the right of anybody to live who is not “fit” for some of “the uses of the world.” It ignores human ity, gratitude and affection, which prompt us to cherish the old and iufirm with a tender care or account of their helplessness. They should, according to this scheme, be all put to death in an easy way. There is this reservation— that the consent of the sufferer shall be obtained if there is enough mental abil ity to consider the question. But if imbecility or derangement of mind in capacitates the patient from deciding the question, a board is to consider his caMigive notice to his relatives, and eoflinH physicians at to Ac hope of re- Movements of the Central Railroad Company.

The Central Road will at once pro ceed to put the road between Columbus and Opelika in first-class order. The three companies also agree to charge the same rates on travel and cotton and other freights to the different points, thus preventing all discriminations. The Central also takes charge of both the depots in Columbus, and places them under the officers now in charge at the Southwestern depot. Through trains—passenger and freight—will be run through to Montgomery as hereto fore, and Opelika, as now, will not be a terminus but a way station. It is also thought very probable that the Central will make arrangements to bring cars from the Savannah and Memphis Rail road to Columbus. It is also thought probable the South ern Security Company, when these chan ges have been consummated, will lease of the Georgia Road the line from At lanta to West Point, and incorporate it with the Richmond and Atlantic Air Line Railroad, which is soon to be com pleted. The changes of which we have spo ken will most probably be consummated in May. The Western Road will gain by the removal of its entire floating debt. The Last Hours of Commodore Maury.

We sang hvmns around his dying hed, and after the last one, Friday evening—it was Christ is risen”—he put out both hands and said, slowly and distinctly: The peace of God which passeth all understanding he with you all—all.” He blessed every one separately, and prayed ever so fervently, and in the most beautiful language.
