a STEP FORWARD.

Our dispatches announce that the bill
abolisllng slavery in the District Of Col1n-
bia, and making fair compensation to loyal
owncrs, passed the Senate yesterday by the
strong vote Of ayes 20 to noes 13. The
only Republican who voted in the negative,
our special dispatch says, was Ten Eyck Of
New Jersey; but the dispatch 10 the Asso-
ciatcd Press states tllas i was Doolittle Of
Wisconsin. We can hardly crcGit this
statement. It is true that be has acted
strangely on some occasions, this session
but it can hardly be possible that he would
vote againstso just, necessary and righteous
4 measure as that cf removing from the
National Capital stain that disgraces our
countryin the eyes Of the world We re-
joice to learn that every Republican Sena-
tor, save one recreant, supported the bill.
Now let the House make short work Of it,
and send the bill to the President, whose
signature, wc have no doubt, will tc un-
hesitatingly attached, making it a Law

The Memphis .ApDeW Of the 2Ssd

The Memphis Appeal OF the Esd ult. says:
The topography Of the country Of the Ten.
ncssee River is very little understood, espec-
ially as regards the valley Of the river. The
landings Of the Tennessee river, above the
mouth to. Pittsburgh, are peculiarly unfoztu-
natc for large settlements or towns on the
bank. The great portion Of the banks to
-these. points are low. marshy, and subject to
overflow. The high bluffs descending to the
river merely furnish landings iof .ffeights,
which are conveyed through high hills, ra-
vines and different roads to the interior, where
the plantations exist Hence the want of
great towns on this river; also the want of
large settlements From the unhealthy state
Of the climate in summer, ague and fever are
very prevalent along: the shores.
4 "Corinth is a very important STRAIT
egica1 point 1t is situated in billy, semi
mountainous county, branch Of the Apa-
lachian rapge which diverg@s from the, Aile-
ghany Mountains, and forms the mountains
and gold-bearing regions Of Georgia and Ala
bama. Here, also, Is the Junction Of the Mem
Fhds and Charleston aud Mobile and Charles
ton rafaroad companies, and forms the intact
communication Of the At1antic and Gulf sea-
boards, and which is very Important to us, as
it would be to the Yankees, were they ever
masters Of this point. !.

One Of the most Infamous propositions
Of the new Constitution is that relative to
the assessment Of damages to property
taken for the purposes Of improvement.
and this is to be found in the
so-called Bill of Rights, sections 81 aud %.
These sections provide that damages, but
not tfnefts, may be ASSESSED for the puroo-
fes of such improvements.
Thus, if the city Of Chicago OF the county
Of Cook, OF any other county Or city, de-
sircs to open road, widen street, or in
crease the width of an alley to that of an
ordinary street, it may assess damages upon
property taken for the improvement, but
no benefits. Take the case Of an alley 10
be converted into a street, as an instance.
New frontage fur stores is secured to the
proprletors, and q consequently greatly
enhanced value to the property. If no
benefits can be assessed, where is the money
to pay for tue damages to come from?
The city takes half Of AS lot for the
purpose Of opening street in
front Of lot owned by B., the
latter is benefited at the expense Of the
former, but is not liable to pay therefor.
And to make the matter worse, If B. should
own other lots, how~yer near to or distant
trom the improvement, the provision in
these sections excludes all such property
from being assessed for benefits accruine
to it. # a portion Of BIS lot is taken for
1hc Improvement, he may be benefited
thereby to the extent Of, say $4,000. All
other Individuals in the vicinity may be
benefited to the extent Of but $1,000.
Still 10 assessment can be made upon his
property for the extra benefit accruing to
him. This is tEc sort Of special legislation
we have presented to us in the new Con-
stitution- Is there any sense or any Justice
in it?
One Of the delegates from this county to
the Constitutional Convention was Mr..
Fuller. It is freely stated i'll this city that
he will make from ten 10 thirteen thousand
dollars by these sections, inserted in tue So
called Bill of Rights, {saye the mark) for
144o oNAtAA- -A4U LII "t1ISt 1tIlNfe In the
case is that the loss in this particular in
stance will fall upon the School section
properly in This city, in the vicinity Of the
Custom House, Post Office, &c. This
property is benefited 81 in the proportion
Of 1000 to that of $4,000 or $4,000 to
Mr. Eul1cr's, nevertheless Mr. Fuller is
not made to pay for the enhanced value to
his, IS lie justly should he.
Under that Infamous provision, all a man
needs to do is to get a packed jury to assess
his damages at IS high rate IS possible
and he can have IN improvement Of i'm.
mense advantage, both on account Of dam.
ages to he paid and actual benefits to
accrue. Either stop must be put to all
improvements, such: as opening streets
roads, &c, or they can be carried on b,
robbing people Of their property and de
priying them Of their rights:

Let it be remembered, now and always. of
thc Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, th3t its
Board Of Directors BY large majority refused
to require its employees to take the oath Of
allegiance to the United States. Whatever
lying excuses may be offered for this conduct,
it is simply disloyal, and should be disconn-
tesanced By all loyal men The miserable
sycophants Of vulgar and barbarous aristoe-
raey, still cling to their idolat1y, and doat up

THE NEW C0NS1 1ITUTION-ASSESS
: mEfTS, DC.
The new Constitution contains some
shameful provisions respecting the yalua-
ton Of property damaged or benefited by
proposed improvements, the collection Of
taxes for special assessments, &C. None but
purblind OF wilfully malicious or dishonest
persons could have incorporated such pro-
visions in the organic law Of the State.
In article VII Reyenuc) We find the fol-
lowing:
SEC. s. The General Assembly shall provide
levied virtnc q aay law 1his IS sha be
chne aGe upon certain day. and also for their pay
meut into the treasury On some certain day. And
ete. with the amount Of their defa!cation ami the
En;res Ct their Eurctics- shall be reported to the
attorney General, or county, OF city, or other Mt
torEct> fur sueh proceedings under such penalties
as may be by Law provided.
Now if this means anything, it means
that all special assessments for county, city
OF town purposes shall become due and
payable upon certain day: If it does not
mean this, all that part referring to county,
city or other attorney is mere surplusage.
We take it, then, it is meant that all coun-
ty and city assessments are 10 be paid into
the various treasures upon certain fixed
day and no other. Let us see how such q
provision will work: Suppose the day
named SHALL be in the fall of the year, how
is work which should be done dur
ing the summer to be prosecuted
through the winter? And must the
money collected for the work remain
idle for months in the treasury? Again,
should bridge he destroyed, court
house, schoolhouse, OF other public build
ing be burned up, the rebuilding could not
bc accomplished, in most instances, for all
indefinite period, unless some party could
he found to advance the money. But this
is not always profitable, especially in small
Places. or in cities where a multitude OF
Improvements are Icing constantly prose-
cuted. Indcedthe principal improvements

sewers, culycrts, &c. Asidewalk is needed

ing, say by the middle or end Of Septcm
her, but the work cannot be commenced
fcr nearly an entire twelve~month. Two
orthrec Of our bridges are swept away By
freshet OF other casually, and they canno
be rebuilt for months. In the meantime
traffic is impeded, and thousands upon
thousands Of dollars lost to property-hold
CHS, willie the public generally is put te
immense Inconvenience.
No matter at what period Of the yea,
the day for collection is fixed, it must re
suit in great and unnecessary inconveni
cnce; money will be collected for improve
naents at one time which cannot be used
and money will be wanted for improve
| ments at another which cannot be OBJ
tained- Thus the peoples money, insteai
Of being in the peoples pockets, will lii
for months in the various county or cit,
treasures, OF rather in the hands Of som,
