Last winter the Alabama Legislature passed a bill authorizing a tax of $200,000 to be raised to defray the expense of arming the State, and giving the Governor power to appoint two Commissioners from each county, with power to determine the course which the State should take in the event of the Lincoln election. The tax-gatherers of Alabama are now collecting this tax from the poor and rich alike in that State; and a portion of the citizens of Madison county, Ala., have assembled together and solemnly resolved to resist its collection.--Here are their resolutions: Resolved, That we, as freemen, abhor the Military Law passed by our Legislature, and now, in this public manner, denounce the law as unconstitutional, and subversive of our liberties as freemen. Resolved, That we will resist this military tax by all lawful means, let it be attempted to be enforced in any manner or shape. Resolved, That we recommend to all citizens and f

There was great excitement in consequence, the shipping hoisting the Palmetto flag, and steamers' swivels sainted it. The Charleston papers of Friday afternoon, however, say nothing of the "attempt to remove government arms."

About 1 o'clock, the troops left the ground and rode to the city, passing through the Capitol Square and in front of the Governor's mansion. Our citizens never before saw such a splendid cavalcade upon the streets, and everybody was delighted with the spectacle.--This visit to the city was in accordance with the general wish, not only of our residents, but of the troops themselves, and we are gratified that Col. McRae decided upon giving such an order. After returning to the camp, and going through some further manœuvres, the parting salute was given, the troops were dismissed, and the encampment broke up.

A few ladies, undaunted by the chilling atmosphere, were there to see the parade, but the number of spectators, compared with that of the previous day, was small. Among the military officers present we observed Gen. Scott, of Powhatan, and Gen. Coleman, of Louisa — We missed the fine company of cavalry from Sorry, which left for home that morning.
