Jus-tices have been Appointed, as directed by said Act, to take the 1 sts in the several tax districts of Gmlfurd County, as fol-lows : Dist. No 1, Abner Apple; 2. Wni. R Smith; S. JereKlapp; 4. IsaacThack-er; 5. Samuel D. McLean ; C. Joseph W. Gilmer; 7. John W. K-rkman ; 8 & 11. A.Dilworth; 9. F. Fenltess; 10. A. Reed; 12. William L. Kirkm in; 13. Archibald Wilson; 14. A. II. Lii-dsay; l.». William Woodburn; 1G. Jesse Benbow; 17. John T. Poe; 18. Sewell Fallow. It is made the duty of the list takers to advertise at three places in their several districts, ten days previous to commencing the taking of the lists. Blanks are to bo furnished by the Comptroller to the clerk for the use of the list takers. The new Revenue Act provides that real property, with the improvements thereon, including entries of land, shall be taxed ten cents on every 9] 00 of its value. EmhpoB taxed OIK- dollar, except wu—w mtamvAjr-Z "•' ",'"aoied> ai,ar ™™ poor and infirm persons as the County Court may exempt. " Every person who, on the first day of April, shall have any person subject to poll tax as a member of his family, or in his employment, or living on his land or in his house, by consent of the owner of said lauds, shall list such per-son and pay the tax, and may retain the same out of any moneys due him." An income tax is laid on the nett income and profits derived from any occupation em-ployment or business, and from every in-vestment of labor, skill, propei ty or mon-ey, and the nett income and profit from any source whatever (except salaries and fees, otherwise taxed,) during the year preceding April 1st—tax to vary from one to three-and-a-half per cent, according to amount of income. All further details of the Act are very nearly similar to those of former years. The lands are to be given in on the valuation of 1 SCO. There will be no addi-tional valuation until 1807. Where the value of any land has been enhanced since 1SC0, from any cause, provision is made for a new valuation thereof by the list ta-ker and two freeholders. The taxables listed by the Justices re-fer to April 1st ; those collected directly by the SherifftO July 1st. As no county tax has been levied for Guilford, it is probable that the Justices will perform that duty at May Court. TlIK ToCRSAMtST AXD BALL AT HlQH POINT.—The tournament at lligh Point on Thursday last passed off very pleasantly. We have seldom seen a larger collection of people on any festive occasion than that present to witness the exhibition of the Knights. The belles and the beaux of Randolph, Davidson, Stokes, Forsythe, Buckingham and fJiUlford. were there—a splen-did and imposing se0r» of the beauty and chiv-alry of our good "'■' BII- *- At 11 o'clock, the Knights, preceded by the Salem Brass Band, entered the grounds as fol-lows: Knight of the Reil Fox—W. G. Barbee. Knight of the Absent Maid—J. ^. Campbell. Knight of the Unknown—Frank. English. Knight of the Whrtern Wilds—J. M. Elder. Knight of the Bed Cross—Henry Graves. Knight with the Gray Horse—I* I,. Gaulding. Knight of the Fallen Flag—Dr. E. B. King. Knight of Roanoke—A. c. Weldon. Knight of the Palmetto State—C. E. Jarratt. Knight ofthe White Rose—.1. M. Bowman. Knight, "So-ealUd"— B. W. Stafford. Knight of Salem—Dr. A. II. Webb. Knight of Sepenahr—J- C. Cunningham. Knight of the Sorrowful Figure, or Don Quix-ote with his faiaous horse Rozinante—The veritable and renowned John D. Smith. The tilting by the various competitors' was quite animating to the spectators, and many of the riders displayed feats of horsemanship and dexterity worthy a Palmerin, or Amadis de Gaul, or Don GalaMor Bernardo del Carpio— Knights who floirrt*fc.;d In the good old days, when it was the duty of that Order to defend maidens, to protect widows, ami relieve orphans and persons distressed. And while the feats of our own Knights in the ring challenged the ad-miration nnd called forth the applause of the spectators, comparing theiu to the invincible he-roes of the dark ages, certainly no less was the admiration of thjpjandience on beholding the "Knight of the Sdxrowful Figure" that per-sonated the good oldgentlenun, who vainly en-deavored, in a mdreenlighteued day. to restore the Order which bad for its object the ac-complishing of so much that is noble and good. •■ Red Fox" was the successful Knight, who crowned, as Queeu.of I.ove and Beauty. Miss Aurelia E. Bowman. First Maid of Hojior, MissSallie Stafford, was crowned by the Ktfight of Salem: tho second Maid of Honor, MJs»<Ait(iie Graves, was crown-ed y.-\ •IK,-,'.-'-jtfch*. itr>v* Wn\ e H-T*r : me .uird M«aor Honor, »««,«, ,_,.., wa8crowBed by the Knight of th« Gray Horse; and the fourth Maid of Honor, Mis- Bmma (raven. was crown-ed by the Knight of the Red Cross. The coro-nation took place in the spacious balcony of Bar-bee's Hotel, which was overflowing with loveli-ness and beauty, the excellent bund discoursing sweet and charming music. On presenting the crown 10 the Queen of Love and Beauty, her Knight said; "TOOK OF TOGETHER."—Under an act of the late General Assembly, fixing the relations ofthe freedmen, the men and wo-men who, while slaves, " took up'' as man and wife and have continued so to live, are required to go before the Clerk of the County Court, or some Justice of the Peace and acknowledge the fact of such cohabitation, and the time ofitscommence- |.mcnt. If tho acknowledgement be before n Justice, he is to report it in writing to the clerk. The clerk is to enter all such acknow 1. dgements in a book kept for that purpose ; and for such entry and a certifi-cate of the same, he is entitled to a fee of twenty-five cents from the party for whom the service is rendered. Persons failing to have their marriage thus recorded before the first of September, 1866, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and pun-ished at the discretion ot the Court ; and their failure thereafter each month is to constitute a separate offence. There are many couples, among those who were recently slaves, who have lived faithfully together as man and wife, and vho should now be warned and encour-aged by their more intelligent friends to go forward and have their marriage tie le-galized. Even if there were no penalty attached to failure or refusal on their part, the fact of making their offspring already-born, or those who may be hereafter born, " Allow TOO, Hist Aurelia Bowman, to place upon your head this exquisitoly-wroughtcrown, which your beauty prompt) d me to win. You are eminently worthy of it. Equals you may have, but your superior I recognize iii none.— Your sparkling eye may inspire another to deeds more noble, and that beautifully tinted cheek may bloom for another. I ask as my boon only tlu' exalted privilege of worshiping at vour shrine of beauty this one day.'' on saying which ho ply—d the crown upon her head. The reply ofthe Queen, in accepting the honor, was so wrapt in smiles and blushes, that we could not distinctly hear : but we plainly saw our obdurate bachelor Knight could never withstand such another ordeal, without making a proposition to capitulate, or surrender without discretion. The other addresses were appropri-ate to the occasion, with which the coronation ceremonies conclnd-.d, when the assemblage dis-persed, many repairing to their respective homes, while a goodly number remained to par-ticipate in the festivities of the evening, which, it was known, would consist of a ball, and a collation to be served at 10 o'clock. The ball-room was not opened until 7, which hour was anxiously awaited by the votaries ofTerpsichore, while, the more demure enjoyed themselves among the citizen.-: of the town, all of whom vied with each other in making their guests feel comfortable and "at home." Bat in company with the hospitable people of High Point, time Hies swiftly : and'iv we knew the fact the hoar of" arrived; sweet strains of music summoned "Silver-sandhill feet," and in the gay and festal room •' An hundred heart- beat happily, when Music arose with its voluptoua swell, Soft eyes looking love to eye; which spake again, And all went happy as a marriage-bell.'' nesses suggested by him (Graham) should be examined, and another that the Rep-resentatives and Senators from these States be allowed to be present to cross-examine the witnesses. The last ropiest was not complied with, because it was not customary, io cases of investigation by a committee, and because the proceedings of the committee were not in the nature of a criminal investigation when cross-exami-nations were necessary. He (Fessenden) did not regard the lately rebellious States in the light of criminals on trial, nor was he acting in the capacity of prosecutor. Another error of Mr. Graham's was, his belief that the testimony had closed be-cause it has been ordered to be printed. It had not closed except in the case of Tenn-essee. In the case of North Carolina, no testimony- had yet been printed, it all be-ing in the hands of Mr. Howard, of Michi-gan, now absent on account of domestic affliction. Mr. Davis, in reply to Mr. Fessenden, advocated the right of the claimants for seats as Southern Senators and Represen-tatives, to be present and cross-examine witnesses. Mr. Davis proceeded to read Mr. Graham's statement in T/ie Intelli-gencer. Having read for half an hour, he was called to order by Mr. Chandler, who insisted that there was r.o question before the Senate. Mr. Fessenden said he had yielded the floor to Mr. Davis for him to read Mr. Graham's letter, but it was evident now that he was reading the editorials and news columns of the paper. Mr. Davis said he was reading an ex-planation of the case by Major Laurence. At the conclusion of Mr. Davis' reading, Mr. Fessenden said that if Mr. Graham desired to introduce further testimony in the case of North Carolina he could do so. HOUSE.—Mr. Dawson, of'Pennsylvania, introduced resolutions declaring that the United States cannot guarantee the bonds of Mexico or auy other nation, and endors-ing Mr. Jefferson's principle of avoiding " entangling alliances." The House hav-ing refused to second a demand for the previous question, the resolutions went over under the rules. Mr. Ancona, of Pennsylvania, offered a joint resolution providinu for the adjourn-ment for the day of May, 1866. The resolution was agreed to. Mr. Cullom, of Illinois, offered a joint resolution making an amendment to the Constitution, which provides that no per-son, except a citizen of the United States, who has at all times borne true allegiance thereto, shall ever hold office under the United States Government.

SKXATE.—Mr. Sunui •!■ presented the petition of citizens of New York, earnest-ly asking that no State that rebelled should be admitted as a governing partner into the Union, without adequate security for the future. Referred to the Committee on reconstruction. Mr. Wilson presented the petition of several colored nun, who represent that they were once, the slaves of Goo. VV. P. Custis, who jn his will freed them, and provided for their support from the prop-erty left by him. They ask that a portion of the Arlington estate be set apart for their benefit. The petition was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary. Mr. Fessenden rose to a personal expla-nation He found in The National In-teUigencer of Vte 17th instant a letter from Wm. A. Graham, a claimant for a seat in the Senate from North Carolina, in reply to his (Pessenden's) remarks, a few days ago, concerning tig- nature of the investi-gations carried on !>y the Committee of fifteen. This letter of Mr. Graham's was intended to convey the impression that the investigations were not impartial. M r. Graham had writien to him (Fessenden) making two requests—one that the wit- to hear the statement of the parties inter- WASHINGTON-, March 20. SENATE.—Mr. Morrill introduced ajoint resolution from the committee on the Dis-trict of Columbia appropriating $2i,0:J0 for the relief of the destitute colored peo-ple of the District, and asked for its im-mediate consideration. He said there was an absolute necessity for this appropria-tion, dictated by considerations or public health and safety as well as by feelings of charity. There were 15,000 destitute"col-ored people in this city, and their condi-tion was deplorable. He caused to be read a communication from the Chief of Police of the city detailing the condition of the colored population in certain dis-tricts, and expressing the fear that unless something was done soon disease and pes-tilence would be generated among them. Several amendments offered were rejected and the resolution as reported from the Committee was passed. HOUSE.—The House took up the gener-al appropriation bill for the year ending June ;i0th, 1807, and passed the bill, here-tofore considered, amendatory of an act in relation to the writ of habeas corpus, designed to protect United States officers from prosecution in State courts for acts committed during tho war. ested and express his opinion as to what would be a fair and honest basis of settle-ment— a privilege the people have had and exercised from time immemorial without any special permit from the " assembled wisdom." Ofcourse, hereafter, as hereto-fore, under this grave " Bill," if either par-ty was dissatisfied with 'he arbitration, such party has a right to have the matter sub-mitted to a decision of a Court and Jury. It was remarked, so I have been told, by a prominent lawyer shortly after the sur-render, that between enorm -us taxes, Fed-eral and State, and Court and lawyers' fees, the people of this country would be completely ruined. In framing this "Bill," the Legislature, it would seem was, very anxious to make true the prediction of the lawyer relerred to; and all the hope the people can have of escape from pecuniary ruin, is in mutual forbearance. Let them all agree to settle their money matters out of Court, the J saving (he lawyer** and Court fees, that would break them up. j^ln this matter, the Legislature fell very far short of coming up to what the people had a right to expect at its hands. What was wanted was a lair, (not a mere recom-mendation— for that is all that can be claimed for the " Bill " under considera-tion ) establishing a just and lair basis of settlement, and compel all persons to abide by such 1 iw. Without compulsion, per-haps three-fourths of the people would be dispi sed to settle justly ; but bv the refu-sal of the otiier fourth to do so every thing is left at sea. A cannot settle with B with-out ruin to himself, on what might be con-sidered a fair basis,unless C will settle with him on the same basis—hence the necessity of a uniform law to force all to settle on the same scale. Had such a law been passed, and a Commissioner appointed in each County to hear and decide on each case. whose decision should be final, there would hive been but little danger of pecuniary ruin from lawyers' lees. But instead of that, the Legislature appears to have so framed their "Bill," us rather to invite lit-igation, instead of endeavoring to guard against it. Had the Legislature been con trolled by lawyers, the inference might be fairly drawn that they were legislating for their owe special benefit--that the people tur- (the MARRIED, , J?

EDITOR OF THE PATRIOT.—In THE PA-TRIOT of the 16th inst., I find as n part of the result of the labors of the Last Legisla-ture, a low, if law it tan be called, An Act with the following title: " A Bill to be en-titled All Act to establish a Snip ot Depre-ciation of Confederate Currency.." The rirst paragraph of said " Bill" recites an ordinance of the Convention imposing upon the Legislature the duty of passing a law providing a scale of depreciation of the Confederate curiency.

The •' Bill" then winds up by a proviso, making the whole of the above a larce and a burlesque on Legislation, in words as fol-lows : " Provided, however, That no part of this section shall be construed to estop or hinder any person from proceeding in the usual course of law, if he shall deem the same necessary." In olain English, the Legislature, after much grave antl weighty consideration— great tribulation—actually passed through both Houses, a " Bill " authorizing tlie peo-ple, when thev are unable to settle their pe-cuniary matters between themselves, to se-lect one of their neighbors as an arbitrator K.

IK SURE AGAINST ACCIDENT.
" Accidents will happen"—no man is secure
from them. T« a working man, whoso income
be moment he is disabled from working,
rjnee conies as a blessing, with its
$15 or t'25 a week compensation.
Every prudent and careful man will act with
reference to future contingencies. Bodily acci-dent
and injury is one o' t e mort frequent and
:'iC causes of distress ; of distress to a man's
family, if fatal U>him, an 1 to himself, also, if only
disabling him from pursuing his business In
both cares, this mode of insurance comes to you
with iis assured life.
As no Medical Examination is required tl.ou-
Bandfl of those who have been rejected by Life
Companies, in consequence of beriditary orother
diseases, can .fleet insurance in the Traveler's at
the lowest rates.
Life Insurance Companies pay no part of the
principal sum until the death of the insured. This
Company p.-ys the loss or damage sustained by
personal injury whcniver it occurs.
The feelir-g of security which such an insur-ance
gives !s worth more than money.
The rites of premium are less than for any
other class of insurance in proporticn to the risk
No better or more satisfactory use esn he made
of sosmall a sum. it is the best and rhcapest in-surance
extant, and ofbeocfit to all classes.

April and first Thursday in May. Jus-tices
have been Appointed, as directed by
said Act, to take the 1 sts in the several
tax districts of Gmlfurd County, as fol-lows
: Dist. No 1, Abner Apple; 2. Wni.
R Smith; S. JereKlapp; 4. IsaacThack-er;
5. Samuel D. McLean ; C. Joseph W.
Gilmer; 7. John W. K-rkman ; 8 & 11.
A.Dilworth; 9. F. Fenltess; 10. A. Reed;
12. William L. Kirkm in; 13. Archibald
Wilson; 14. A. II. Lii-dsay; l.». William
Woodburn; 1G. Jesse Benbow; 17. John
T. Poe; 18. Sewell Fallow. It is made
the duty of the list takers to advertise at
three places in their several districts, ten
days previous to commencing the taking of
the lists. Blanks are to bo furnished by
the Comptroller to the clerk for the use of
the list takers.
The new Revenue Act provides that
real property, with the improvements
thereon, including entries of land, shall be
taxed ten cents on every 9] 00 of its value.
EmhpoB taxed OIK- dollar, except wu—w
mtamvAjr-Z "•' ",'"aoied> ai,ar ™™
poor and infirm persons as the County
Court may exempt. " Every person who,
on the first day of April, shall have any
person subject to poll tax as a member of
his family, or in his employment, or living
on his land or in his house, by consent of
the owner of said lauds, shall list such per-son
and pay the tax, and may retain the
same out of any moneys due him." An
income tax is laid on the nett income and
profits derived from any occupation em-ployment
or business, and from every in-vestment
of labor, skill, propei ty or mon-ey,
and the nett income and profit from
any source whatever (except salaries and
fees, otherwise taxed,) during the year
preceding April 1st—tax to vary from one
to three-and-a-half per cent, according to
amount of income.
All further details of the Act are very
nearly similar to those of former years.
The lands are to be given in on the
valuation of 1 SCO. There will be no addi-tional
valuation until 1807. Where the
value of any land has been enhanced since
1SC0, from any cause, provision is made
for a new valuation thereof by the list ta-ker
and two freeholders.
The taxables listed by the Justices re-fer
to April 1st ; those collected directly
by the SherifftO July 1st.
As no county tax has been levied for
Guilford, it is probable that the Justices
will perform that duty at May Court.
TlIK ToCRSAMtST AXD BALL AT HlQH
POINT.—The tournament at lligh Point on
Thursday last passed off very pleasantly. We
have seldom seen a larger collection of people on
any festive occasion than that present to witness
the exhibition of the Knights. The belles and the
beaux of Randolph, Davidson, Stokes, Forsythe,
Buckingham and fJiUlford. were there—a splen-did
and imposing se0r» of the beauty and chiv-alry
of our good "'■' BII- *-
At 11 o'clock, the Knights, preceded by the
Salem Brass Band, entered the grounds as fol-lows:
Knight of the Reil Fox—W. G. Barbee.
Knight of the Absent Maid—J. ^. Campbell.
Knight of the Unknown—Frank. English.
Knight of the Whrtern Wilds—J. M. Elder.
Knight of the Bed Cross—Henry Graves.
Knight with the Gray Horse—I* I,. Gaulding.
Knight of the Fallen Flag—Dr. E. B. King.
Knight of Roanoke—A. c. Weldon.
Knight of the Palmetto State—C. E. Jarratt.
Knight ofthe White Rose—.1. M. Bowman.
Knight, "So-ealUd"— B. W. Stafford.
Knight of Salem—Dr. A. II. Webb.
Knight of Sepenahr—J- C. Cunningham.
Knight of the Sorrowful Figure, or Don Quix-ote
with his faiaous horse Rozinante—The
veritable and renowned John D. Smith.
The tilting by the various competitors' was
quite animating to the spectators, and many of
the riders displayed feats of horsemanship and
dexterity worthy a Palmerin, or Amadis de
Gaul, or Don GalaMor Bernardo del Carpio—
Knights who floirrt*fc.;d In the good old days,
when it was the duty of that Order to defend
maidens, to protect widows, ami relieve orphans
and persons distressed. And while the feats of
our own Knights in the ring challenged the ad-miration
nnd called forth the applause of the
spectators, comparing theiu to the invincible he-roes
of the dark ages, certainly no less was the
admiration of thjpjandience on beholding the
"Knight of the Sdxrowful Figure" that per-sonated
the good oldgentlenun, who vainly en-deavored,
in a mdreenlighteued day. to restore
the Order which bad for its object the ac-complishing
of so much that is noble and good.
