A Washington letter in the New,YorL

EXpTccS says.
am sorry TO inform you ha, our rpla-
lions with Portugal continue anything bur
favorable or pacific. The President has.
as you know declined to refer the case to
arbitration, regarding the claims of the
United States as too strong TO admit of a
doubt.
The Portuguese Government, | underr
stand, have since asked that the subject
of our claims be referred to Con ress, which
OF course, will be. done, as the executive
could not reasonably decline such a pro.
position. lsuppcse, therefore, that in the
course of few days the subject will be
laid before Congress.
This, OF course. removes the apprehen-
sions. recently expressed, as to the recall
OF our Minister ani collision between.
the two Governments.

THE FREsHEr on THE KENNEBEc.-At the last
accounts from the Kennebec, the water was rapid
ly subsiding The freshet was the greatest which
has been experienced in that vicinity since 1892.
In addition to the damage previously reported, we
learn that the steamer Huntress was left upon her
wharf by the recedng water, and would be got of
with great difficulty, if at all. Nearly all the ice
houses on the river have been swept away. The
Kennebec and Portland Railroad was damaged,
but not TO any serious extent. The county roads
between Brunswick and Freeport were badly
damaged The principal damage by the treshet is
probably the loss OF logs and lumber.

If Taxation by the National Government
only is contemplated, 81 80 per head IS lar
nearer the actual impost in this country
than 50. We think 81 50 per head Is quite
90 much as has been annually drawn from
our people by the Federal Government since
is formation, though more than One Hun
dred Millions have meantime been paid for
debts and claims outstanding when this
Government was organized.
But Comparative Taxation sheds little
light on the subject it contemplates unless
accompanied by light on the objects which
the Revenue so raised is made to subserye.
One country supports its Police, Judiciary
&c. from the National Treasury: in another
from the proceeds of local taxation. One
country devotes a part Of its revenue TO Id
ucation, to Railroads, Canals. H"rbors' &C.
while another leaves these also to local pro-
vidence so that the former may be far the
more economical and yet seem the more ex-
pensive. One country may tax quite lightly,
yet burden its people severely by exactlon'
Of Militia Service, Jury Duty, Road.Making,
billeting Soldiers, &c. which another Is free
from. So one city supplies its inhabitants
copiously with pure water at heavy cost :;
while another does no such thing, and seems
to tax less because it gives less, provides
less. The above table is of little practical
value.
A real table Of Comparative Taxation
might be very useful and instructive. 1t
should show at a glance what is the cost per
head in each country of Civil Justice, Grim
inal ditto, Public Defense, Legislation, Ex-
ecutive rule, Religious Worship, Education,
Revenue Collection, &c. DC. Who that has
the material will prepare such an exhibit?
