Tlie Bank Tax Cases 
Tim Court of Appeals has reversed the 
judgment of the Supreme Court, and decided 
that shares in national banks are tav able by State 
authority, although the capital is invested in 
Government bonds. The poiut adjudged is, 
that although Government securities are not 
taxable in the bauds of individuals, yet when 
they are assigned to a natioual bank, and used 
as the basis of banking, the tax is upon the new 
issue, and not upon the securities. The effect of 
the decision will he to establish a uniform rule, 
and place the Albany banks on an equality with 
other banks, although in New York and other 
localities the shares have been omitted from the 
assessment rolls. The cases will be removed to 
the 8upremo Court of the United States, and 
it i6 expected that a final decision of this vexed 
question will be obtained at the next December 
term .—Albany Journal.

From England. 
Late advices from England represent that 
the correspondence between Mr. Adams, the 
American Minister, and Earl Russell, in relation 
to the responsibility ot England for the ravages 
committed upon American commerce by rebel 
pirates fitted ont in England, had taken place. 
Earl Russell repudiates all liability and refuses 
all arbitration. 
The papers generally comment on the corre¬ 
spondence. 
The Times can hirdly doubt that the propo¬ 
sal for a commission will ultimately be excepted, 
and says it is the best, if not the only solution, 
and the candid atul friendly tone of the argument 
between Russell and Adams justify that ex¬ 
pectation. Other journals hope for an amicable 
solution.

ored soldiers who may not have been free on 
the 19th of April, 1861, and who volunteered 
between that, date and the passage of the act 
of July 17th, 1S62, are not dispossessed of the 
right to those bounties — the Attorney General 
being clearly of the opinion that enlistments in 
the United States army instaully makes the slave 
a freeman forever, and places him upon a foot¬ 
ing of equality with the white volunteers. This 
important decision therefore entitles the colored 
soldiers, whenever enlisted daring the rebellion, 
to the bounties provided by law for volunteers , 
at the time of their enlistment.

to be very pure charcoal, finely ground and 
made into paste with starch. The paste is 
molded into cakes or balls of different sizes, and 
then dried. When perfectly dry these may be 
lighted with a lueifer match, and will continue 
to hum steadily, like German tinder, without 
giving flame or smoke. The combustible is in¬ 
tended for heating urns, chafferettes, etc.
