The following able opinion of Judge MILLER
OF the I. S. District Court, in reference to the
validity of Tax Deeds, was rendered in case
lately tried before hun at Milwaukee, and copy
furnished to Messrs. Evans and BOND, Of this
place, at their request, by whom it was handed
to US for publication.
The opinion is valuable, not only as a legal
document, but from the general interest felt in
the subjects of which it treais-for while the
reasoning of the Court establishes conclusively
the invaldity of form of Deed very generally
used, it seems to admit that had the deed been
made in the "name Of the State" as it evidently
should have been, instead Of in the "name Of the
Clerk Of the Board of supervisors" it would
have been sufficient
Unless the Legislature can devise form and
plan by which some efficiency can be given to
Tax Deeds, we hope the question will be presen-
ted to our Courts until it IS fully determined
wha: form and substance is necessary to give
them vaI,y-foriti is q notorious fact that thou
sands and thousands Of acres of the best land Of
Wisconsin are held by non-resilents ana spccu-
lators, who, trusting 10 the prevalent idea of the
worihlessness Of tax titles, neglect the payment
Of their taxes, and contribute nothing for the
support of the schools, roads, and the general
interests Of the State.

LOUIS NApoLEoN.-A Paris correspon-
dent Of the New York Erpress says that
Louis Napoleon's health is far from being
good, and adds:
"DissipstiOn is solwly undermining his
constitution. As TO the fact of his dissipa-
ton, there is no doubt whatever about it,
Orgies OF the most extraordinary character
were often held at the Elysce before the
the Presidents departure for ST. Cloud, and
ladies of doubtful reputation, who had the
honor to be invited made no bones Of telling
of the rare times they had. There are sto-
ries current which cannot put upon paper
and which YOU would take good care not tc
print, if did. cannot consider them as
iabrications or as calumnies, for the wines
ses are very numerous, and their account:
tally remarkably. 1t is certain that tbs
President is over fond of spirits, and that he
will not listen to advice, or suffer interier'
ence."

Gen. Winfield scott-Opinions of Distin
guished Men.

Z
In 1882 when South Carolina threatened
to revolt and dissolve the Union, General
jackson selected General Scott as a conf
dental agent of the administration, and di-
rected him TO proceed to South Carolina and
enforce the laws and preserve the peace Of
the country. General Cass was then Secre-
tary of the War and in his order to Scott he
uses the following language:
ale (PREsIDENr JAcKsoN) has full con-
fdence in your judgmeH and discretion, and
it is his wish that you repair Immediately to
Charleston, and examine everything con-
nected with the Notifications. You are at
liberty to take such measures, either by
strengthening those defences or reinforcing
these garrisons with troops, drawn from
any other posts, as yOu may think prudence
and a just Pre-caution require"
The opinions of Jackson in regard to his
prudence and discretionS were fully justified
by the event, for Scott adjusted all Difficult
ties and quelled the idcipient rebellion with
out one drop of blood having been shed.
When IN 1897 there was imminent dam
ger of bloody collision between her Males
ty's Canadian subjects and American citi-
zens on the Northern frontier, President
Van Buren, sent Scott to the frontier, to pre-.
vent invasion and bloodshed that must have
led TO a war between the two Countries
Scott maintained the laws and honor of the
country, and b. indefatigable exertions pre-
served the peace between Great Britain and
the United States. On his return from the
frontier, he was honored by the citizens Of
Albany and by the members of the New
York Legislature with apublic SUPPER
Governor Marcy, Folks Secretary of war
presided. The following were among the
regular toasts:
winfield Scott-Not less the scholar
than the soldier, whose pen and sword have
been welded with equal skill in the de.
| fence of his country"
| "The Sodier-Who has ever made the
law of the land his supreme rule of action
and who, while he has always fulfilled it:
utmost requirements, has never, in a single
| instance, trancended its limits"
/ "Our Guest--The invincible champion o
our rights-the triumphant vndicator of oul
laws"
