The banks claim exemption from taxation, by
virtue of their special privileges. The real simon
pure whig doctrine is, that banks should pay tax
of six per cent upon their profits, while others are
generous enough to propose that all the capital
stock paid in, should be taxed like the property of
individuals.
Under either of these arrangements, man may
invest his money where it will produce eighteen
per cent profit, and pay not cent of tax. But
what argument can be offered why property en-
ployed in banking should not be taxed the same as
individual property! Are bankers made of better
material than the honest men Of the country? Is
not one hundred dollars worth of property as val
liable to the banker as to the merchant or me-
chanica We see no difference. Certainly then
there is no moral reason why they should not be
compelled to bear an equal burthen of taxation.-
But In addition to this the constitution of the State
provides that the rule of taxation shall be uniform,
and were we to admit, for the sake of the argu-
ment, that bankers ''were several thousand feet
above the level of the people,, it would avail them
nathing in the end-the language of the constitu-
ton being peremptory and unequivocal.
And again, as we said before, there is no m oral
reason why bankers should escape their just pro-
portion of taxes; but there is great moral reason
why they should be taxed more than the private
citizen. And first, they issue their mates payable
on demand, and by act of incorporation those
notes are made to pass money. Instead of pay
ing interest upon them, they draw interest upon
their own Indebtedness.
When Mr.. A., merchant, or Mr.. B., mechanic
issue their notes for $1,000, they expect at the END
of the year, to pay $50 interest, But when Mr.
c.. and Mr.. D., bankers, issue their notes for $1,000
instead of paying $50 at the end of the year, they
receive that amount of money, making the bankers
money justl2per cent better than private citizens
This therefore is strong reason why bankers
should be taxed on their circulation, which they
are not.
In the next place, when the assessor comes
round, he of course will list whatever amount o.
bank paper you have on hand, and tax the same as
ready money. IF you have $1,000 of Ravenns
bank paper, you put it down as cash on hand, ant
pay the tax accordingly. But when the assessor
goes to the Ravenna bank there is no such assess
ment made-and yet the $1,000 in the hands of the
banker will buy just as many barrels of flour il
the hands of the bank as yours, will buy just a:
many Ohio Stars to keep their villainy white-wash
ed. Yet in the face of all these privileges they
unwilling to pay the tax assessed against then
upon the property returned and sworn to by the
own officers. We trust the day is not far distan
when the people will become aroused, and teacl
these monied corporations that even they can bt
made to do as honest people are compelled to do
to pay their taxes.

what Protectlol, cost.

Hon. SHENLocK J. ArDREws, an ex-member of
Congress, and q regular old-lne Wing of the fist
water. as Chairman of the Committee on Resolu-
lions at the Cleveland "Erie indignation meeting
reported aresolution which asserts that Ohio has
paid IN duties ,cithin the last ten yeaes nearly oe
tH;sns Of dollars for the protection Of toe iron I'm
terests of Pennsylvania. This is dobtless true,
and she has probably paid as large an amount for
protection of the cotton interest of Massachu-
setts-or about OIL ,oOO,O 900 year paid by Ohio
ltorotection!'' This, to some extent, conflicts
with the Whg tariff doctrine, that high duties for
Protection, only makes the article cheaper to the
consumer! Portage Wing please copy.

VANcouvER's IsLAHD.--A few days ago we re-
corded the arrival of a cargo of coal from Van-
couver's Island, the first coal brought to San
Francisco from the North Pacific. We under
stand that other vessels are now engaged in OBJ
tanning the same landing; and it is hoped that at
no distant day all our Goals willbe obtained from
that island or Oregon, Coal is abundant in Ore
gon, but it is not as easy of access as that in.
Vancouver's Island. 81
This island is destined to become point Of
great Importance for San Francisco. 1t is about
fifty miles wide by four hundred long; and distant
north from this city about nine hundred miles
The soil is fertile and well watered; timber is
abundant, coal plenty and accessible; the climata
healthy, and there are several good harbors, and
we'll situated for commerce. The population Of
the island is about six hundred, OF whom one
third are connected with the Hads0n's Bay Come
pany. The Island will soon rise in importance,
though it would undoubtedly have been settled
and improved in much less time If il had been the
property of the United States. It will be the
main point fer British commerce. in the North

Shipwreck and Rescue by an Ameri-

On the 24th OF August the British bark Merid-
ian, from London, bound to Sydney, N. 8. W.,
struck on rock on the south end of the island
of Amsterdam. She beat her bottom out and
keeled over to an angle of 45 degrees; the hull,
however, held together until the crew and pass
engers, to the number of lO5, got upon the cliff
There were among them II woman and 46 chill
merely sheltered by piece of canvass. They
were discovered and rescued by the American
ship Monmouth, of Long Island, Capt ISAAC
LUDLOW. Capt. LUDLOW was unable to approach
the spot where the people were; he therefore sig
nailed them to cross the island. This they ac-
complished in journey Of three days, attended
with much difficulty and danger. The Mauritius

Remittin. Money by Mail.

A very important case has recently come up
before the U. S. District Court at Richmond, Pa,
Chief Justice Taney presiding, in which the ques-
ton arose whether money remitted by mail from
debtor to creditor, SUCH money being lost be-
fore it reached it's destination, was release of
the debtor from obligations of the debt. The
Chief Justice decided that the plaintiff having re-
quested his debtor to remit the money, without
specifying or directing how it to be sent, and
the defendant having complied with the request
by remitting through the mail as was the custom
with others to do, the debtor would not be OBJ
liged to make good the loss. The decision is in
conflict with other cases involving the same priR
ciple, the Chief Justice holuing that the former
decisions were not correct.

.-- For he For age Senunel
Above YOU have "birds-eye" view Of the city
of Erie an hundred years hence. ''The sbemina-
ton of desolation'' is supposed, in the mean time,
to have visited the '.dsserted city," and while look
ing at the annexed cut it will probably bring to the
readers mind the account Of the fall Of Jerusalem
and the destruction Of Sodom and GOs1crsalf, in
DAYS of old, as Just retribution for the sins OF
the people, In the view the "lightning train" on
the ''uniform guage' is seen vending its way from
Cleveland to Buffalo No stop is made here, for
there is no place to stop at. Ships and steamers
are seen passing in the distance laden with Pro-
duce and merchandise from both the old and new
World. The moon, in her nocturnal exolutions,
is supposed to have reversed the position OF her
horns and gone over to the Canada sideo the Lake,
being ashamed to pass the detestable spot in her
usual round, euen after might. The Bird, ,on the old
eafless tree seems to contemplate the melancholy
scene with mingled feelings Of awe and reverence,

on which the ruins stand scattered to the four
corners of the globe. their names by-word and

U. 8. STATUTEs.--In the Senate, MIR. Sumner
offered resolution which was unanimously agreed
to, "That the committee on the Judiciary be in
structed to consider the expediency of providing
by law for the appointment of a commissioner to
revise the public statutes of the United States, to
simplify their language to correct their ncongru-
tiles, to supply their Deficiencies, to arrange them
in order to reduce them to one connected text, and
to report them, thus improved, to Congress for
their final action, to the end that they may be in
such a form as to be more within the comprehen-
sion Of all.
