.Hf Tribute*
The thrilling butrlee ring.
Aud the vibrant drums are boat;
The glory of our fla/
Illumes the narrow street;
The eager folk throng thick,
l<reat cheers oppress the air ;
Our parting breaks mv heart—
Yet I’m proud to think he’s there.
The drums sound long, swift rolls,
The bugle* blow fierce cries,
And marshalliug fiery hosts
Our flaming banner flies.
The regimeuls sweep down
Into battle’s smoke aud glare;
- A terror chills mv heart—
Yet I’m proud to think he's there.
The bugle’s breath is faiut.
The muffled drums speak slow,
And over arras reversed
Our blood-dimmed flag droops low.
To a patriot soldier’s grave
The valiant dead they bear;
Thy hopes are slain, my heart—
\ et, oh! be proud he’s there.
MISCELLANY.
Hot Experience Down South.
At Vicksburg the beat is intense with very
little air stirring, and one can do naught hut
bear it, shilling uuea-.ily Irom spot to spot in
search ol a breath of air, and followed in the
pilgrimage by tormenting Hies and ceaseless
gnat*. Wearied aud waned out he will, per
haps, fling himself upon the floor, and go to
sleep In sheer desperation, with a night mare
on bis b.ain.whicti magnifies everything into a
monster, and every gusli of hot, sultry air into
a sirocco. To roll and toss into languid wake
fulness is b.it natural. Tormented with fever
ish thirst, he will rush for water, and gulp
down the foulest fluid that ever passed a man s
lips; Mississippi river water—so muddy and
thick that a silver dollar is invisible ill it when
barely covered in the bottom of a glass. A
Northern fanner would carry water in bucket*
a mile before he would allow his caltle to touch
such stuff Exhausted and fretful, he wears
away the day. He does not pretend to eat.
There is nothing to eat hut army rations of
salt meat and stale bread, which would turn a
dog sick when the feeling of disgust conies on;
even if he escapes a ruined digestion, of which
there is but slight probability. As night ap
proaches, the beat dies away, and he hopes for
comfort.
Most delusive hope! As the sun sinks, ani
mated nature comes forth. A low hum uu
nniiiiPM fit** <rttfh*>rin<r iiUHPt linvt iupruMkimr
as they come, filling the atmosphere with the
dread infallible warning. There is no sleep
with that sound ringing in the air, and yet ev
ery whore yon turn, it still greets you. The
same low, ceASclcss hum, like the distant whirl
of spindles, or the sound of the monotonous
surf on the tea-shore. 1 need not describe the
agonies of a night in such companionship. A
series ot hours embodying all the miseries of
life. The heat will kill you every successive
hour, and the inus<|uitoes will pick your bones
clean. You die a dozen deaths in-1 ore morn
ing, ami arise a blistered ami mangled body, tit
for nothing hut spleen, vocal with no sounds
but maledictions and curses. I am uot exag
gerating in any particular sense. In my own
person I have undergone it all, and experience
Is the best of teachers. 1 have, for days at a
time, sweltered with the heat, and turned
with di|gust from every mouthful offood, aud
for a week of nights, walked the floor in a
frame of mind tit to make a lunatic, until na
ture gave way and a change was indispensable.
These are the comforts of pme unadulterated
Southern life. Let those seek it who desire it.

That't the Cheese.—"That’s the cheese!”
Almost every body lias heard this Loudon
cockney expression, which simply implies—
“That is the very tiling, the ne jilvt ul/ra of
what we want.” The original of the saying is
said to be as follows, aud in these war times
our ibrees may sometimes get out of ammuni
tion, it may be well to apprise commanding of
ficers how they may obtain potent substitutes
from the commissary's stores. The incident
narrated occured in an engagement with Ad
miral Browne, of the Buenos Ayres service.
“What shall toe do, sir,”asked the first Lieu
tenant; “we’ve not a single shot about—round,
grape, cnnuister,<louble-lieaded—all are gone..”
“Powder gone?” asked Coe.
“No, sir; got lots of that left.”
“We had a d—d bard cheese, a round Dutch
one, for a dessert at dinner to-day; do you re
member it f” asked Coe.
“I ought to; I broke the carving knife in
trying to cot it, sir."
“Are there any more aboard
“About six dozen; we took them from a dro
ger."
“Will they go into the eighteen pounders?”
“By thunder. Commodore! hut that's the idea.
I’ll try’ern,” cried the first luff.
Ami in a few minutes after the Are of the old
Santa Maria, (Coe’s ship) which had ceased en
tirely, was re-opened, and Admiral Browse
found more shot flying over his head. Direct
ly one of them struck the mainmast; ami, as
it did so, shattered aud flew in every direction.
“What in h—1 is that they are tiring?” ask
ed Browne. But nobody could tell.
Directly another one came through a port
and killed two men who stood near, then stri
king the opposite bulwark, burst into fliuters.
“By Jove! this is too much—this is some
new langled Paixhan or other; I don't like’em
at all!'' cried Browne; and then, as four or
five more of them slap through his- sails, he
gave the order to “till away!" an 1 actually
backed out of the tight, receiving u parting
broadside of iron hard Dutch cheese as she re
tired.
That teat “the cheese, and no mistake!”
A soldier whose legs had been carried away
above the kuees by a caimoii-bail, and who
had been long a patient in the hospital, one
day, while sitting up in bed, asked the uurse;
“When will those tract distributors be ronud
again?”
“To-day,” said she.
“When they come I would like something
to read.” he added.
A colporteur came in the afternoon, and
maue a nasiy uisirmuuon ol tracts, giving one
to each bed, without stopping to read the ti
tles or see to the fitness of the selection. The
poor fellow who had lost his legs received a
little four-page message, and began to read
with great eagerness. The nurse, noticing
Ills interest, stole up behind him to see the
subject of the tract, when, to her astonish
ment she read the following title, “The Evil
Ejftcti of Modern Dancing.” Hepressiug
her laughter, she said to the man:
“That tract is hardly suited to your condi
tior."
“Well, Madam,” he replied, “to tell the truth
I think my dancing days are ubout over!”

AssessoiV Xoticc.
YOTICE is hereby given that I have been appoint
T". Assessor ot Taxes for tho First Congressional
District Of the .State ot Maine, under the Act of Con
gress, approved July 1. A. D. 18G2, entitled “An Act
j to provide internal revenuo to support the Govern*
iuent and to pay interest on the public debt.”
In compliance with the provisions ot said Act and
instructions of the Commissioner or Internal
revenue, 1 hare divided said District into eleven
divisions, and appoiut au Assistant Assessor in each,
as follows:
The 1st division comprises the towns of York,
Wells, kenuebunk, Kennehuiikport, and the city of
Biddeloid; Joseph Bhagdon, Jr., of York, Assist

As-istai t.
11th division, the towns of Freeport, Brunswick,
Harp*well, l'ownal ami Yarmouth; Uezekiah li.
Means, of Freeport, Assistant.
The act under which these assistants are appointed
took effect on the 1st day of September instant.
Citizens residing in tfie large business centres of
this disti ict have doubtless read it, and can hence
form their own conclusion* in relation to Its provis
ions; but a* there are many in the agricultural sec
tions who ina} have been unable to obtain a copy ibr
examination, 1 wish to call their attention to some of
its principle*.
Soon alter the rebellion broke out. Congress found
it necessary to assess a small direct tax on the sever
al States, to maintain the credit of the country. The
States being authorized to assume the payment of tho
sum demanded of them, had the power to assess it
upon all the property within their limits.
Farms and other real estate being, from their na
ture, more exposed than other objects of taxation,
would suffer severely from the constant draft for
money, created in sustaining the government during
this war. and they could not long endure tho burden
a direct tax would impose upon them.
Maine’s proportion < f that tax has been liquidated
and paid. In order to provide In part for the fulure
expenses of the war, Coiigrcti* wisely determined to
r-tise money from the people without State interven
tion, and without taxing tho producing c asses. To
effect this object, and to make the tax equal in every
State, they have passed what has been termed an Ex
cise Act. Passing by the farmer, the mechanic, the
... anu nmin uuiri jini'uii!*
ho essential to our prosperity as a people, this act
levies its light contributions upon the we 1th, the
luxuries, the pleasures. ar<l business of the country.
It coniines its operations chiefly to tho cities, towns
and villages, and gathers its revenues from the chan
nels in which floats tho money of the country.
It dot*s not tax real estate of any description, nor
with a very few exceptions, personal property. The
excess ove.* 40 ounces of silver spoons or plate, aud
riding carriages of all descriptions, valued with the
harness at $75 ami upw ards, must be assessed. With
the exception of these two items, there is not prob
ablv a farmer nor a mechanic in this district, within
the act. These are taxed at a sum so inconsiderable
that it is to be Imped every citizen who desires the
porpctuitv of his government will, in this terrible cri
sis of its affairs, assume cheerfully his proportion of
its necessary burdens, and if he is fortunately the
owner of an artic’e liable to be assessed, put a value
upon it which shall bring it within the act. It inav
be the onlv opportunity he will ever have io contri
bute a dollar for the preservation of his gov or inent.
The professional man — the retail tiader w oho
sales exceed one thousand dollars per year—the man
ufacturer of anv article the sales of'which exceed
six hundred dollars per year—the hotel keeper—the
man whose yearly income exceeds six hutidied dol
lars, and severa’ other employments are to be assessed.
It is presumed all such are conversant with tbo pro
visions oft liis act.
1 would call their attention to sections from six to
eleven, inclusive, and section fifty-eight.
Tliese sections impose the duty'upon every person
liable to be assessed lor a tax or license, to call imme
diately upon the assistant assessor and make up and
sign their several assessmei ts. If they neglect so to
do, he is required to incH'ase their tax fifty per cent.,
and no discretionary authority is vested iu the assis
tant or the assessoi to make auv abatement of this
! amount. See section 11.
It will be perceived by a careful examination of
these sccrioi.ik that ( ongiess, idying upon the patri
otism ol the Duriudta men of the coui try, proceeded
upon the in pot hois that every ore liable to be taxed
would substantially assess himself, and sign the bills
fixing the amount lie * a* to pav. If the act, there
to) o is complied with, the assistant assessor is but a
recording ofi eer, who receives and properiy enters
the lists delivered him hy the citizen, and his dutv iu
re aiion to tixinga valuation upon objects liable to
taxatiou, is istlier advisory than absolute. Iu order
however to prevent tho seffish, the ii different, or the
tiaitoious, Irom escaping their proper pioportioi • of
the public buideu, ( ougiees has fixed the penalties
i for their neg ect,prescribed in section 11.
Having been intrusted by the President with tho
! duty of seeing that these tax liatt are properly pre
i pared, and seasonably* deliveied to the collector of
; this district, 1 respectfully request all good citizens
j within it to call immediately upon the assistant as»e«
i tor of the assessment dis’iict where they reside, and
j deliver him lists a> toquired in the sixth section of
the act. He will give all petsons the necessary* in.
j foi(nation to enable them to comply with its provis
ions, and furnish blanks therefor.

A Remarkable Case of a boy who wm cured by
DR. II. I. BOYNTON,
Df Scrofulous Ophthalmia, as the following facts will
ihow:
“FOR a long time the boy’s eye-lids had
entiroly closed. Disease was cousid
(^•■ered almost hopeless. The boy was put on
der the care of Dr. B., and alter great pa
;ience and perseverance, with his electrical treatment
u»d with other curatives, he was able to lift hia eye
fds, when it was discovered that a false membrane
bad formed and covered the entire eyes. This was
removed by Dr. Boynton, and the boy's eye-sight is
now entirely restored, and his eyes stronger than ev
■r before. This should be known to all persons who
ire similarly afflicted. Although I understand that
the Doctor has for many years, in his operations on
these delicate organs—the eye and ear, met with em
inent success, he has not deemed it necessary to keep
blaring before the public his surgical skill iu this par
ticular part of his profession, but has been silently
performing cures, many of them of a remarkable
character."
Certificates from numerous of his patients
will testify to his successful opeiations, all of which
may be secu at his otbcc.
