viet a te evan Daily, Transcript, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 109¢n. City and County Official Press --o9-Duee Times at Wasnoe.—On sever~ al occasions we have stated that the rerourcea.and wealth of the Washoe country have “ . been overrated by thé ‘people of California i. _now wildly rushing to the Territory, esnfis reser “twelvemonth . and that s large number of those who are dent that fortune awaits them, are destined to-be disappointed. ‘That_business of all hinds Was lively at Virginia we never doubt od, ‘but we thought {t was overdone and that a reaction mist take pluce. A letter haa-recently been tectived inthis county, in which it says that money is as scarce in Vir ginia as in the deserted mining towne of Cals ifornia, that thousands are there out of ems _ ployment and without money, and that numbers of those who have gone from Nevada county and engaged in business, wish they were back again. The Virginia Union, -always so sensitive when anything is said res ‘flecting upon the country, or when a doubt. ia _¢xpressed in regard to the immense wealth of the Territory, has a leader in ite wsaué oF the 13th, which so nearly coincides with our views of the condition of things in _ and around the sage brush metropolis. that we cannot refrain from quoting. Mr. Unien, “when we said money was not so plenty and business was not so lively in your tewn, you accused us of misteptesentation. Now, ‘out hie income ite value above two heandred dollars per annum. ‘The interest onnotes, . notes, ete., due others, ig -ductrdy— but wot for new buildings “Income Tax.—The Dill \lewying an In-. come tax now'befure Congress increases the’ tax ftom three to five percent. We givé a synopsis of the proposed law: AH citizens. at home orabroad, mast pay five per cent.on allincome above $600 except that derived from United States securities, which pay two and a half per cent. _¥rom the incowe:is to be deducted State and municipal tuxes, salaries of United States officers, (on which a higher percentaye is to be paid,) the receipts frum dividends of the capital stock of buuks, savings institutions Arust, insurance avd -rai i" and bouds ; alsu_ the house rent-to— tir i not exceeding two hundred doullure. But the owner of a homestead must include in. part_of one's ipcome, together with the gains from purch»se and sale of property, increased value of live stock aad farming produce. paid for rents, Jaber or interest necessary for the conduct of a business; is te pe deor improvements. All. persons are to-muke a sworn return as furnished by the Internal Revenue Commiss oner. E ‘The tax must be. paid by the 30th June in each year, wutil 1870, and ten days after demand by, the Collector adds 5 per eeat.— If not paid a lien fur the United States is created, enfurcible by distraint. Sale gives perfect title. ». Five per ceatum is imposed on all ircors porated companies’ dividends, and for default of true return $500 fine’ is imposed, Banks of circulation wotinaking dividends must make semi-aunual returns af profits, on which 5 per centum must be paid, Raidroada are. to p-y 5 per centum on interest on coupons aud bunds. Canals, turnpikes and navigating the same. United States officers. civil, military and naval, must pay 5 per Centum ou their salas . ot thing Own Wout” Will we prove the truth of our statements! The Union says: Dull times io the prevailing compiaint. Merchant and miner, banker aid broker, lawyer and doctor jom in” the chorus ‘wand echo the oft anadeWseertion that never, _ since F860, haa Virginia been so dull as dure ‘ mag the lost few weeks, corder’s office, where one year ago ten scribes were kept constantly buay, one man} —._fesufisient to-reeord all the conveyances of + Teal eataie. In the County Clerk's office a similar lethargy prevails, and in the District * Clerk's office but few complaints srefiled, . although the latter cireumatance may be the result of the immense amount of business now on th: ealendar, and the utter impossibility of bringing any case to trial under» Stocks are down; money is high and almost impossible to obtain, even at the highest rates; the banka have ceasd dia: ~ counting; merchants are cautious about crediting, and work has ceased on many prospecting claims. From Austin and Auro ra, and Humboldt, the same cry of dull times comes up undensingly. and our Terris tory seems at the very «bb tide of that pros. ity which a few months since wae floating her citizens on to rapid fortune.” San Francisco Evecrion.—The eleetion in San Francisco on Tuesday last, resulted in the success of the People’s party. McCoppin, Indepenient candidate for Supervisor, is said to be electad. He was a » Member of the last Board and voted against ‘issuing bonde for the subscription voted by the 'peopie to the Pacific Railroad. Rowell and Titccomb, copperheads, are also said to \ Bie elected Stifermeore. The People’s pare . 4 ty elected all the county officers. The subscription to the Sanitary Fund it is thought "will reach $25,000--Between 13,000 and 14,000 votes were polled in the city. In the Teath District, after the polis closed, a “Gigturbunce occurred. The mub overpowered the police, and the Provost Guird came to the reacue with drawn sabres and dispersNo News.—The wires were not in working order yesterday,-and no news was reeeived frony the East. Phe latest advices we-have, left the’Union arthy. under Grant with every prospect of a epoedy aad glorious victory over the rebel General Lees _ Lea, out off from allhope of relief by reinforee_ ments, had no alternative but to fall back ta the intreochments at Richmond. or with his wore out and diapirited troope-to risk a batWe. We have no doubt that whencommunivation is again opened with the East, news will be sent of additional victories. + Qs wet Nee w eg yo rg .

This may be -attributed partly to the senseless rueh for Boise, Virginia and_ Reeve river, and partly to the tendency mans ifested by mech«nics and laborers te-copecn~ trate in San Francisco, where in reality but little encouragewert ia given them.
