BANKS AND TAXES.

1t has been concusively settled, by decision
of the Supreme Court, that the shares of any
and every stakeholder in any National Bank
are subject to State and local taxation, unaf-
fected by the fact that part or all the capital OF
said Bank is invested in National obligations.
Those obligations are not locally taxable as
such, but their use as Bank capital is. In this
decision, the Supreme Court has affirmed, we
believe, a decision of the Court Of Appeals o.
our State.
We reiterate our record of this import
ant decision for the guidance Of assessors and
taxpayers. Hitherto, if we mistake not,
owners of shares in National Banks have felt
justified in emitting from their return of prop
erty subject to taxation. so much of their capital
invested in National Banks as they presumed to
be invested in National securities Thus IL
Bank, having capital of 100000, had
5000 900 invested in those securities, each
stakeholder felt warranted in returning to the
assessors but oue-third of the amount of his
stock. This is justifiable 10 longer. He must
return and pay taxes on every dollar OF his
stock; such being the authoritative exposition
OF the law Of the land

WHAT Is 1T Z

The N. Y. Times probably means something
or other with regard to the pending election in
Connecticut but seems unable or unwilling to
indicate what it is The last of two or three
attempts at it is aptly entitled "The Connecti-
emf Muddle"-the "muddle" being not at all in
Connecticut, but wholly in The Times. 1t beats
all about the bush, and finally quotes passage
from speech of somebody from Illinois, and
thereupon proceeds to say:
These things cannot go on without disrupting the
Republican party In view, therefore, OF an inevitable
rupture il behooves the people to weigh al evidence
for and against the President the one side ana the
leaders in Congress the other and decide when Is
nearest right. 1t is more than party question III
reaches above and beyond party. And IN determining
our own course we should each for himself endeavor
10 learn how we can promote the restoration OF the
Union the stability of the Government ana the pros
peIity Of the country"
Will somebody be good enough to help The
Times tell us what it is at Is it for Hawley
or English the Union ticket or the Copper
head' Do try once more, neighbor and see
if you cannot speak so that plain people can I'M
derstand you!

A GRAVE ERROR.

Tile Daily Necs, with reference to TIE pro-
posed celebration, by the Colored Unionists OF
Richmond, of the first anniversary of the flight
Of the Rebel Government from their city and
the resulting collapse Of the Rebellion, says:
THE TRIBUNE 10 not satisfied with the acceptance.
In good faith by the South Of the results Of the war
but insists that she shah burrah her defeat and
make merry over her caamities."
The above-to speak with exceeding cour-
tcsy-is utterly mistaken. We wish no one to
"hurrah' nor to "make merry" over the Rebel
lions collapse and overthrow who regards these
as "calamities" That would be abhorrent hy-
pocrisy. But, on the other hand, We do most
firmly insist that those who-whether at the
North or at the South-do at heart rejoice and
thank God that the Rebellion and Slavery re.
ceved their death-wound on the 81 of April
last, shall be at liberty publicly to manifest
such joy, without hindrance, menace, intimida-
ton or disturbance of any kind; for this is their
clear natural right, and to restrain or forbid its
enjoyment would be fragrant oppression.

The curio .tv to learn the details Of The re-
form bill 10 be proposed by the English Gov

when Mr. Gladstone, in lengthy speech, ex-
planned the details. The bill reduces the quail
fcations of county voters from fifty
pounds to fourteen pounds occupancy, and
for boroughs TO seven pounds rental,
and to dodgers paying ten pounds for
apartments. The measure will add about 400 OoO
to the present number of voters. The total
number of voters in England, Wales and
Scotland amounting in 1864 to ], l25.754, the
new bill (Which does not affect Ireland) will
increase the aggregate number of voters in this
part of the kingdom to about 100000 in a
total population of $4,000, 600. The bill deals
only with the franchise, leaving the distribution
of representation for another session.

THE NEW VETO.

Having been among those who could not
help evincing impotence with the tameness
and slowness of our Government when the
knife was first thrust at its life by slave
holding treasoR-haying with difficulty endured
the imbecilities and treacheries which culmi-
mated in the Bull Run disaster-haying found
it impossible 20 endure silently, unprotest-
ingly, the obstinate dawdling and purpose
less strategy of Mcclellan and Buell-yet hay-
ing lived to see all this, in Gods good time,
work out for our country grander, truer deliy-
erance than was contemplated by our short
sighted ken-we feel moved to thank Andrew
Johnson for his undersigned but most important
demonstration of the vital truth that no class
or race can be trusted with the rights Of another
but that the only security for Liberty and
Justice inheres in the securing of All Mems
Rights under the only safe guaranty of All
Mems Votes.
Let us thank Mr. johnson that his Veto is so
sweeping He might have phrased it more
cunningly; but he has chosen TO let US know
that il is not this particular bill that has pro-
voked his opposition, but that any measure
whereby Congress shall attempt to protect the
Southern Blacks against White abuse
and oppression must encounter his de-
termined deadly opposition. 1t is not
to mode of doing the thing,
but to the thing that Congress proposes to do,
that Mr.. Johnson's main objection lies; conse-
quently, it is idle to hope that any bill which
provides-no matter how cautiously, timidly-
for the protection of the Blacks, will receive
his sanction. 1t is, therefore, idle to consider
his reasons in DETAIL since bis main objection
is not to any detail, but to the purpose and
necessary scope Of the measure.
Let us rejoice, then, that it is thus made still
! P'Dtc'7
ton than that Of their Opn potes. The Freed
mans Bureau must 90; the Civil Rights Of the
Blacks must remain such, and only such, as
their respective States choose to accord them.
If, then, they are to remain subjects and Pa
riahs in the land of their birth,
/ they can have no rights at all; fol
the bone thrown by contemptuou'
pity to beggar'S dog is not his by right but by
grace and favor. The Blacks must vote, Of
those who hate them will verify their own pre-
diction that they cannot live free among us, bu
must perish from of the face of the earth. Hap
PLY, there is another issue-that to be attalnc,
through legal recognition Of the cat trut.

OF course they are. The Herald charges
forty cents per line for ordinary advertisements;
and it prints Sunday edition, which THE TRI-
