assumed, that not more than $51, SOC, 900 can
be calculated upon as the average basis Of the
respective levies On this sum tax of 10 l-q

mated demands, exclusive Of special appropri-

within the current year, It appears to me, from
careful examination that levy as above stat

vii! be strengthened by an examination of the
actual collections for the last three years. 1t
will be seen, that less than TO OF the taxes Of
each year were collected within the year. As
suming that 10 Of the taxes of 1916 will be
received within the year, the result would be
the receipt Of 1901 ,s75 from levy OF s43I,-

THE WAEnEN TRAGEDY. Al no period in
the history of New Jersey has more a:rocious
murder been committed than that of the Cast
ner family; and no similar instance is oil record
OF patient and Close investigation to discover
the perpetrators OF that dark deed. The muir
deis were committed al the house of John Cast
Der Oh the night OF May LIST, 1885, the whole
family except small! hired boy who had been
stunned by blow, and two small children
found asleep, having been found murdered the
next morning, viz: John Cashier, his wife, and
one child IL bed with her, aud John b. Parke
an old bachelor brother-in-aw. The object of
the actors i. is coniecturcd was to obtain a con-
siderable sum Of money, which i was known
the family kept in the house, and perhaps by
dcspatchipg the whole of them to secure the
inheritance Of their real estate. The truth is
now about 10 be developed. Joseph Carter, jr.,
II is known, has some time ago been found
guilty of that murder, and on Friday Peter
PaTke was also convicted of the murder at Bel
vdere, n. j., as we learn from the Newark
Advertiser. The case was committed after a
long and patient investigation and full argu-
mcnt, in a clear and able charge by Judge Ne
vus, and the jury was only out about hours.
The verdict is in accordance with public senti
ment in Warren county. Thus two of the
murderers, Joseph Carter, IT,, aud Peter Parke,
his COUSIN are identified and stand committed.
Abner Parke, either the father or uncle of Pc
ter, was tried immediately before OH one indct-
ment, and acquitted by the jury, though cir
cumstances were strongly against him, in con-
sequence Of an abb insisted on by some wit
nosses, his daughters we believc) from his own
family. Since that acquittal further testimony
has been obtained, and he has been brought up
and charged under one of the other indictments
for fortunately the Grand Jury found an in
dictment against each Of the prisoners for each
of the four persons murdered, so that it is be-
lieved his participation in the dreadful tragedy
may yet be established He will be tried at
the February term-some three weeks hence.

Allow me to ask, through your valuable paper,
why the Philadelphia Cadets were not received in
proper manner on Monday last, on their arrival in
our city Their intended visit was known month
ago, and yet none OF our military corps made any ar
rangements to receive them. Perhaps some OF our
military gentlemen can explain. When the Boston
companies came here last summer, there was
number of companies ready to receive them in
fdct the City Greys Of Boston had three applications,
but in the case OF the Philadelphia Cadets, there
was but one man in citizens dress, awaiting their
arrival. FRIEND 70 OUR Military CORPS.
