'^ellaughing Hyena" ia the pleasing title of a new paper recently started in Texas. A Boston paper in 1810 bragged in largo capitals over .French news fifty-two days old. Now we get it in fifty-two minutes. A "Wall street operator is reported to have given his wife a Christmas diamond set, worth over $60,000. Ju Boston, last week, some oil stock was sold at auction at the rate of ten cents per hundred shares. One certificate of five hundred shares was\soldfor seventy-five cents. During the month of December, nine thousand six hundred and thirty-eight emigrants arrived ai Castle Garden. The larger number sailed from Liverpool. The iron bridge that is to span Broadway at ita intersection with Pulton street, to relieve that nar? row and crowded thoroughfare, is nearly complet? ed, and will be in position by February. It ia announced that the Hotel des Invalides will be employed as a barrack for the use of the many companies of foreign militia and national guards that are expected to visit France during the Exhi? bition. The new Fire Department of New York City is a oostly luxury. Its expenses for the past year footed up $935,000. The old volunteer system, more efficient in quelling fires than the new paid department, never cost more than $400,000 per year. JOHN CHENEB, a hunter of the Adirondacks, pos? sesses/a pistol with which he claims he has killed 1500 deer, 12 otter, 1 panther, 28 hear, 19 wolves, 24 moose, and other game without number. Ho has carried the pistol thirty-two years. An aged woman, who spent her time in rag pick? ing, has just died in Charlestown amid scenes of the greatest distress, filth and poverty. Prior to her decease a skirt was found in her apartment in which there was sewed np several thousand dol? lars in gold. The Srongerfest, to be held in Philadelphia next July, will probably be the largest ever gathered in fbi? country. The printed music is now being distributed gratuitously, and about three thousand singers in varions cities have already sent in their names. There were in New York during the past year 85 homicides, 36 infanticides, 61 suicides. Of the latter 12 hung themselves, 12 used the pistol, 5 took Paris Green, and 1 Costars Rat Extermina? tor; 237 persona were drowned, and 38 deaths re? sulted from burns. .Tho vu-ginia (Nevada) Enterprise of the let inst, says that "THOMAS FARRELL has commenced a suit against SAVAGE & Co. to recover possession of miT"g grounds and $500,000 damages. This is decidedly an important suit, involving the title oi some of the best and most valuable maning ground in the State of Nevada." A telegram states that Crescent City, Cal., waa visited by the heaviest storm ever experienced on this coast, the tide being unusally high, accompa? nied by a terrific gale, which tore up the streets anu'?-ried away buildings; one store-house was nearly carried out to sea. An Episcopalian congregation worships in the Seminary at -Alexandria, Va., and on Sunday last a general fit of coughing and sneezing was produced by the burning of red pepper, which had been put In the*stove. Bishop JOHNS, who was officiating, was compelled to stop while reading the Litany, and di amiss his hearers. The report of the Superintendent of the Onon? daga Salt Springs, for the fiscal year 1866, shows the amount of salt manufactured during the year to be 1,092,230 bushels, and the duties arising therefrom $71,003.30; and. the expenditures, $45, 657,17, leaving $25,345.14 as the net revenue from the Salt Springs. Col. CABBINGTON, who was in command of the post at Fort Phil Kearney at the recent massacre of nearly a hundred soldiers, has been relieved, and will probably be ordered under arrest for trial on charges of carelessness in the performance of bis duty. It seems that the detachment was cut off from all chances of retreat to the fort and over? powered. It is claimed that Col. CARRINGTON could have prevented this. Honiton, Texas, before the war, had only 5000 inhabitants. They now number 30,000, The Tele? graph says : "Our city is perfectly filled with strangers from all the four quarters of the globe, and our hotels and restaurants are filled to overflowing with them. We are at a loss to know where they all oomo from. But tho best of it all is, they have, mostly got money, and are buying np the vacant lots and blocks around the city, with tho intention of building on them" There was received at the Treasury Department recently the following sums of money, to be placed in the conscience fund : A draft on the New York State Bank at Albany, for $310-no name or letter given; a draft on the Jefferson State Bank, Steubenville, Ohio, for $20, in a letter signed by W. H. Wallace; $2000 enclosed in an envelope post? marked Indianapolis, Ind.; a letter signed "Resti? tution," in which was enclosed $5-in all amount? ing to $2340. The Rochester Democrat of Saturday containa a letter from Judge AXEBED GONBUNG to Judge SMITH, in rhich he takes the ground ?that the rebel States, by their own acts, placed themselves outside of the pale of the Corstitution, and are stopped from appealing to that instrument in de? fence of their rights. Judge CONELING maintains that they have no rights but such as belong to conquered States, and that Congress can, conse? quently, do as, it pleases with them, restrained only by the common law of humanity and justice. The Nashville Banner learns, on gcod authority, that a gentleman who was recently identified very prominently with the oil interests of Tennessee, and who held a high command in the Federal army during the war, lost over fifty thousand dollars by locating wells under the direction of "water" or "oil witohes." So implicit was his belief in this ridiculous superstition of the nineteenth century that ho was compelled to return home an utter bankrupt. The Wallawalla (Washington Territory) States? man, of December 21, states, as a rumor, that Mr. HAYWARD, on behalf of the California Steam Navi? gation Company, had bought the controlling in? terest in the Oregon Steam Navigation Company, and ventures the prediction that St. Helena or some other point will take commercial precedenco over Fortland as the point for a landing for ocean steamers. The same journal has favorable reports from a new mining district on the headwaters of the Palouse River. The Angelica Reporter states that a Mr. Ons MARSH, residing on Crawford Creek, about four milos from Oramel, has discovered silver on his premises. It, says Mr. MARSH, on excavating forty feet below the surface, came to a rich stratum of silver quartz (a bluish rock filled with particles of silver), and on digging a few feet deeper discover- | ed the pure metal-a vein the thickness of a case knife blade, and about three feet wide. He has had some specimens of the quartz assayed by a chemist, who valued them at from $1500 to $1800 per ton. Owyl oe papers say the division of Idabo has again been brought before the Territorial Legisla? ture. The division of Washington Territory was being discussed at Olympia. The object was to unite the counties along the Pugot Sound in Ore? gon, and counties east of the mountain range, in both Washington Territory and Oregon, so as to form them into one State. The Ihdians in the Owyhoe and Boise county continue their depreda? tions upon stock, and fights with the savages are reported in every paper from that section. The Dallas (Oregon) Mountaineer gives the de? tails of the running off of a pack train by Indians from near Camp Watson, and their pursuit by Col. BAXIE'S command. When about twenty miles from the post the troops came up with the Indians and charged upon their .camp. The Indians stood their ground, but during the snow storm their rifles had become damp and snapped. The sol? diers, observing the state of affairs, drew their sabres and cut the savages down, killing fourteen men and capturing five women. All the stolen ?nies, together with ten horses captured, and a great amount of supplies were destroyed. It is considered one of the most complete victories ever gftinsd over thegnake Ihdians.

FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY ll, 18C7. , TAS ON KNO WLEDQE. We bad occasion a few days ago to call at? tention to-some of thofeatures of the Tax Bill recently passed by the General Assembly of South Carolina. There is one of its provisions to which we propose to address ourselves in the present article, viz : Its influence upon the spread of useful knowledge. We read : "Upon taking out a charter, except for religious, chavitable and educational purposes," the ap? plicants "pay $20." We are glad to see that the "humanities" still go duty free, but regret that the same liberal policy did not character? ize their action in regard to the greatest of all civi.'iring agencies-we mean the Press. News? papers, already largely levied upon by the In? ternal Revenue, and gently tapped for the benefit of our municipal "Ways and Means," is once again laid under contribution by the State : "On the gross receipts of newspapers published in this State, $2 on every $100." The Irtornal Revenue tariff is three per cent., but iu reality less than the Scate tax of two per cent. The former is on the gross receipts of ad? vertisements only, while the latter fails to make this intelligent discrimination. City, State and United States tax on-the gros3 receipts of newspapers now, amount to 5J per cent., or $5750 per annum on a gross income of $100,000. ' - Have any of these enlightened legislators ever considered whether thc article taxed can ?xist under such a levy ? Do they know any? thing about the outlay necessary to conduct a first-class newspapaper ; how much money the type, sticks, cases, stands, galleys, chases, rules, mallets, plainers, quoins, and other furni? ture costs ; how much imposing stones, rollers and proof presses ; how much a large HOE'S newspaper printing press, and the steam engine necessary to furnish the motive power ? Do they know the length of our monthly gas bills, when our printers are kept at work at the tele? graphic dispatches till four o'clock in the morning, and sometimes later ? Do they know how much are our weekly bills to the printers for "composition ;" how much the price of the raw material of printing paper (the heaviest of all tho items enumerated); how much the work of tho presB-room; the folding and the mail? ing room ; how much thc carriers, book-keep? ers, collectors and clerks ? Do they know the price of telegraphy (?) of fromtwo to three col? umns daily dispatches over the wires ? Have they considered the vast amount of editorial labor engaged on a daily morning paper,-re? quiring several "locals," a news editor, a com? mercial and shipping editor, and several political and literary writers ; and that nearly all these employees are engaged during the greater part of both day and night ?. Do they know how much is expended for correspondence, foreign and domestic? We know not; for if these facts had. been in their, possession, wc feel assured there would be no tax on "the gross receipts of newspapers." What is the natural consequence? While the tax falls oppressively on the proprietors of newspapers, its influence is no less felt by every subscribor and reader. We do not refer to an increase in the price of subscription, for this is not always practicable, and is only done as a dernier resort. The proprietor, however, must protect himself against positive loss, and the subscriber receives a less amount of reading matter. It is, therefore, clearly a tax on knowledge. RITUALISM IN ENGLAND. We hope our readers will not be alarmed, and think that we are about to plunge into the depths, of English Church controversy. This is far from our intention. We only design giving a brief outline of that phase of the question which is now making so much noise in England. We cannot take up a periodical, daily, weekly, monthly or quarterly-literary, political or scientific-from across the water, that is not committed on the. one. side or the other of this controversy. The extreme High Church party have of "late become more bold in the public declaration of their opinions, and in the performance of the ritual practices con? nected with them. The champions of the Low Church party have not been slow in denounc? ing them, for what they call their Popish creed and "Popish mummeries." Both clergy and laity are engaged in this quarrel. A little over two monthii ago, the Rev. SYD? NEY GODOLPHIN (Lord OSBORNE) published a letter in tho London Times attacking ritualistic practices in very severe terms. This was thought to be specially intended for the Bishop and clergy of the diocese of Salisbury, to which the writer belonged. The Bishop so considered it, and wrote a letter to the Times in reply, giving. Lord OSBORNE a sharp rebuke. The latter, however, answered again, and thc controversy has been kept up ever since, other parties taking part on both sides. Amongst these are Dr. PUSEY, Dean TRENCH and Lord SHAFTESBURY. The first named boldly advo? cates the doctrine of thc "real presence," "confession," and other tenets, which thc ma? jority of the people of England insist on be? lieving are the property of the Roman Catho? lic Church, and it is said they are becoming alarmed at such inroads upon "the Church of their fathers." The Times opposes Dr. PUSEY'S views in its editorial columns ; so does Lord SHAFTESBUBY. The latter says: "I will ven? ture to affirm that the vast majority of thc thinking work people of London and the north regard thc ritualistic system with dislike, and the principle of it with apprehension." This war is not confined to the newspapers. The combatants have found their way to the courts. The Rev. T. B. SIMPSON, perpetual curate of Last Teignmouth, has been proceeded against in tho Court of Arches on five charges for offences against'the church discipline act, called "ritualistic practices." The case is still pending. Mr. R. C. HANBURY, M. P., an? nounces that arrangements arc being made for a meeting of the laity, under thc presidency of a distinguished nobleman, lo consider what steps should bc taken to put a stop to the "per? nicious nonsense" in the Church of England. Under th<? head of "Eomanism in thc Church of England," the "Council of the Church As? sociation," in an advertisement in the Times, also call for contributions from "all earnest Protestants," to resist the "bold attempts now made to introduce Romish doctrine under cover of an elaborate ritual, and more particularly the sacrifice of the mass." From this it will be seen that tho hour of trial for ritualism is drawing nigh. Events will soon demonstrate whether there is in it enough of vitality to leaven the entire English Church, or whether it will succumb to the strong anti-Papal feeling which is ever latent in Great Britain, and which, savouring, as it does, as much of poli? tics as of religion, proves a formidable antago? nist when once it is thoroughly aroused.
