LARGEST DAILY CIRCULATION In (,'Uy und Nuliurlw. - TAXATION, The subject or taxation has inter ested the public from time itnniemo-: rial, -while many statesmen have in vain tried to solve the problem. At present our Legislature is considering this great question, and we are sur prised to aeo the diversity of opinion existing between members in regard to it. Home are in favor of taxing everything, and making all property, of whatever nature, taxable; others are in favor of taxing everything except factories; while still another class urge the exemption of one hundred dollars', worth of household goods to the head of each lairilly. They have passed the tax bill, but it is being constantly added to, and re considered; so as yet no one knows how it will read when ready for the ( tovernor’s sanet ion. One great inconsistency wc notice in the efforts of some members to ex empt from taxation certain moneyed Interests, and at the same time vote against the exemption of the wush pot, skillet and mattress. This oc curs to us as inconsistent, to exempt the property of the capitalist, who is abundantly able to pay his taxes, and to tax the poor woman with her bed ding, who is totally unable to pay taxes, and who can only live by main taining the closest economy. Georgia is rich, and she can well ufford to nllowwldows and orphans the henellt of cooking utensils and lied clothing without exacting from them a tax for the bare privilege of eating and keep ing warm. If anybody is to be ex empted, let these poor people be the ones. They Will over be Onteful to Mr. Speaker Bacon for his vote in ! their behalf. The vote wus taken on this clause of the tax bill, and stood a tie, when Mr. Bacon east bis vote on the side of the exemption. We would like to see tuxes lighter, but the amount of tax that would have been derived from this source would not have diminished taxation one dol lar, nor does the exemption add one dollar to the tax assessment. If the authorities at, Washington will only let us alone, and our Legis lature r ail a convention that we may reduce the unwieldy sue of the Leg islature and limit its sessions, Georgia will soon he able to cancel her bonds and materially lessen her taxation.

The Northern papers are approv ingly commenting on ft petition sent to yongriss, numerously signed by iiOgrAelttifi which theVloddly do maud | the protection of the military, threat ening that tf it fs not promptly of fered, they will either desert the Re pitbit-jbi party, pr will use “flru, blood aAwfejWd' towards the White* <>f the Booth. The first threat, if curried out, wifi go far towards alleviating their present political condition, while the latter will curtail their voting strength about one half. Some North ern papers seem alarmed over the prospect, but we can assure them we art not in the slightest afraid of such idle throats. There is no need of mil itary interference, and the negroes know it full well. The pi lit ion is gotten up by meun white men to serve flic interest of the Kadical party. The Mamn, have got better sense than to attempt to carry out such a threat. If they were to he so unwisp, they would only come out like they have in every encounter with the whites.

T arrived at this lively point last night makes no difference about well or otherwise luul a splendid night’s rest, up and dressed at day light, partook of a glass of pure cold water, or otherwise, came output the streets. It was very cold. The first, object which met my sight was a fight between two William goats. This’ was an horn before sunrise. 1 wit nessed that fight for two hours shiv ering. No friend insight during all that time to ask if I was afraid. I was not, and asked myself if such was the case, and settled that by stepping across the street to Bailment & Bos entliul.

For the lire', time since Pie Legisla ture has been in session, tins oil tier branch had to adjourn for the want j of a quorum. Yesterday the Senate was called to order mid the President i was compelled to adjourn until the 1 ! Streets and saloons could ho scoured 1 to find enough hwhibijrs Lftrunwiot busies.-*. After considerable delay they began to drop in, and then the j j business of speaking and moving to bills was Khgnh'tn earnest,, j Nothing has been done recently of any locul or general interest to Co lumbus. The caption of all bills I see you got by telegraph 'on th l, sabre day they are Introduced; so it will he], old if I mention them here. The SeiiaW has pasyed u bill to-1 enacting tjie usury Inf by a large majority. The vote stood 21 for it, j and 12 against it. To be in order, geyitiemon will uiove to reconsider it.; Tlie general imprefsto'fi is that, the house will concur in tho Senate bill, and wo will again have a Jaw regulu- j ting tho prideof fiioheY- This is go- j ing backward instead of progressing, but, vas suppose the lawgivers are. tho boat jlnlgcs dl wliatSthc people noed. There are some strong arguments in favor of a usury law, though tho ar guments ugaifist If outweigh, in my h nuild* opinion. The House has had before it a bill to create a State Board of Health. Tho bill was Introduced by Doctor Thomas, and the discussion Which followed drew forth a masterly ayx-gch_ from him in defence of the full. He showed that Georgia was the health iest spot in tlie world; and that, with the statistics, will save the peoi>!e .fifty thousand 'fulfors in life insur ance. The board is to consist of nine physicians, one from eaoh Congres sional District, to serve six years. Tlie ftecretarjCof tlie Board is to get fifteen hundred dollars salary. The iiill was passed by a Vote of 60 to AH. Just before the mcctitig'of tlie Leg islature, Mr. Coon, of Towns county, died, and the Governor ordered anew election, which resulted in the eholee of S. Y. Jamison. He was sworn in yesterday. The hill to re-enact the lieu law was lost, but on yesterday, upon mo tion of Mr. Gilmore, it was reconsid ered. Atlanta is obliged to hav.e a seda tion, or she will not be able to exist twenty-four hours. The general, theme of conversation now is tlie crusade against theatres and such kinds of uirfust'ments, now being waged by tlie Uvv. l)r. Lcftwitch, one of the purest and ablest divines of this city. His sermons mid lectures are stirring up his congregation, and the member* of other churches. Whilte w o cannot agree with the learn ed divine in all things ho says, yet j ther,e ia up doubt. his is the safg rule, ill would be a groat blessing to our people if some influence could keep them from patronizing every travel ing troupe taken from the "Bowery”? and announced to Southern people as “artist*,” “stars,” aud “yo*ng tra gedians.” Wo lmv> heenlilirrfbfig-red by tliem long enough, and we would like, to see the people show them, by not patronizing them, that we appre ciate good acting. A large proportion of those traveling Bcmth, would he hissed off the cheapest and lowest: stage in any city of tho North; yet they impose on us, take away our money, and laugh at our credulity. OhcASIONAI, • • A I hint Ro*rreU. a gentleman follows ms Mines and CHILI) KltOM TEXAS AND BF.OOVFRH TliK I.ATTEK A SAD TALE. About three weeks ago* a very ro siKictablo gentleman in this oily, a merchant, received a letter from Ban Antonio, Texas, from a Mr. John Taylor. Mr. Taylor wrote to inquire of ills friend if lie had met his wife in tilis city die knew her some years before), nnd if she had his son with her, a boy ten years of age. He went oil to state that she had been very in timate tn Ban Antonio with several parties, in consequence of which lie and she had uquarrel, which resulted in a separation. Bhe moved to an other house in San Antonio, taking tier son with her,and when the father commenced legal proceedings to oh tain tho child she, with it, mysteri ously disappeared one night, and in received a note next day, signed b\ her, which she laid left at his house tho night before, stating that he would never see her or tho child again, as she intended to leave the country. Ho put detectives on her track, but, as it has since transpired, I she remained in and near Ban Anto nio'for nearly a month, eluding en tirely tlie search of the father and tlie detectives, und when they had aban doned tile search, she left one night in company with u stock or ranch man l'or Austin. it has also since transpired that she from there went to Dallas, and flnalh came to Memphis. About a month ago Mr. Taylor received a letter from a friend in Memphis informing him that his wife and child were in that city, and that his wife had borrowed some mouoy from him. slating at the time that her fiiisbhud was behind her. having been detained on the road to look after their baggage. As Mrs. Taylor was not at her residence the next two or three times he called, be, l)*ine suspicions, und linnllv learned ->f her separation from her husbarid and of the abduction of the child. Ho then wrote to Mr. Taylor, who put. the Mertifihis officials on the track, and Mrs. Taylor was traced to this city. Mr. Taylor was atonoo no tified by telegraph, and yesterday he arrived in this city, and found his wife keeping house in tlie rear of Sco field’s lolling mill. Bhe had with her two females (prostitutes' and the child. The house is known as one of bad fame, and is run in the name of Ella Thompson, being tlie name assumed by Taylor’s wife. He went to the house about 3 o’clock yester day evening, and knocked ot tlie door. His wife opened it and was so terror -1 stricken mid surprised at seeing him . that she lost her speech for a few sec onds. He simply said, "Whereis my boy I” nnd she replied. “In the next room.” He pushed her aside and went into the room where the boy was, and took him by the hand and 1 kissed him. The little fellow was 1 overjoyed at seeing his father, and when told that he must leave his ’ I mother, he offered no objection. His mother usked leave to kiss him once more, which was granted, and father and child left her probably forever. Since the separation it has transpired tiigt Mol Taylor had, for overayat, been n>j>intiiite with tho man who nc.eom inn led her to Austin. When lie wenj with tier to Dallas, she says, he paiJhor way from there to Mom phis, gave Ivor some money, and tell-, Ing her he would follow her iu a few I days, returned to Austin. She bus never seen or heard tell of him since. Blm says she would have slai-i ini Memphis had she hot, motvvith &nuiu | ;\>:ho luicw lim-, and shy jjllgmkl ti + [remain in this city, but now sTre s,i\s! she want* to beiiii-tu her Child, and' will go hack to Texas us Soon as she j ouu raße money enough.. She gavel no reason for her üßgraccful conduct, i tmt tiial her husband wok too cold I and neglectful of her, although he, gave her all the money and hmirre of life lie could afford. He is in pretty , good eireumstanees. and is a jeweler | in Han Antonio. He left last night , for home, with his son ; anil, although i glad to recover his only child, tlie faults and disgrace ,<f its mot her j made him carry back to liis deserted i homo a heavy heart. -1/ky Ua Attic*, i ttEJMMSIA SEW.
