THE A T DECISION"

EDITOR NEws:-Do you understand
the late decision of the Supreme Court
as !egisdnas a full tax Of q dollar and
a quarter on a hundred, on the proceeds
of our mines? INQUIRER.
Our correspondent has hit the very
word descriptive Of what the Supreme
Court has attempted to do by its late de-
eision. Whether it will prove asuccess
or not we cannot say.
In this connection w will mention
the fact that Blasdel convened the Spe-
cial Session under q proclamation and
message which declared the entire reve-
nue. law unconstitutional. The Su-,
preme Court say no TO this, and so decide
as to show that according to their pres
ent Interpretation there was no necessity
for a Special Session. None whatever.
The Special Session taI bill is just as
Unconstitutional" under this decision
as the portions Of the law of '65 and &c
referred to by the Court. Blasdel's as
sertiou that the entire Revenue Law
would be declared unconstitutional is
therefore negatived by his own Court,
when they come to an official promulga-
ton. Under the Supreme Court deci-
sion the entire, gross proceeds Of the
mines are to be taxed 81 25-a burden
Of tax which, if enforced, all through
the ~levies, will take the aggregate Of
profit in amount, for State, county and
city Or town purposes. There is consid-
cradle difference Of opinion among the
lawyers as to the correct, practical in
depreciation to be placed upon certain
important parts Of the decision, and we
presume a supplementary and explana-
atory reading may be asked or vouch-
safed from the Court. The reasoning
of the Court, as We shall hereafter show,
i, decidedly novel, and not unworthy Of
q place in the volume Of the Archy, the
Mccall, and its own faro-6le-in-set-off
decision.

IL the Paris Exhibition it is claimed
tha, the United States makes but a poor
show; but a correspondent Of the Lon
don Time, explains this by saying the
best things America possesses are just
things that cannot be exhibited at oil.
She buys her ornaments and her 6uery,
and does not make them; and he says:
"She has the best opportunities for the
investment Of the capital that is repre-
sented BY strong arms and a cool head;
aud the contributions that would really
represent her would be, not the axe, but
the sturdy pioneer that yields it, and
the thousand Aourishing cities that now
cover the plains where but a few years
ago the Indian kindled dry grass fires in
from, Of his wretched hut"

CIRcUxLocurtoS still rules in England.
The English papers record the case Of
VIM. Humphreys, aged IS years, who
has within the last month had a pension
of %. a day settled upon him for SER
vices performed in the Peninsular war.
He left the army in 1917; SO that, in
fact, it has taken William. Humphreys
so years TO fnd out what the life Of a
solder is worth, according to official
calculation. The British government
has, moreover, consumed so years in
deciding to pay ninepence to one Of its
noblest creditors.

IT does US good to read the proof Of
accommodating indignation brought out
in the Republican press at the release
of the arbitrator Davis. There is no
installing these evidences Of a peoples
disapproval of tina, high-handed act Of
assumption Of power. 1t is condemned
as illegal, cowardly and d~isgraceful to
all concerned. No true Republican APP
proves the act. All loud-mouthed
Copperheads are jubilaut, not so much
at the release Of a miserable assassin
and traitor, as at the humiliation to
which the act Of Judge Underwood sub
jects the loyal sentiment Of the country.
Already are those who were parties to
this most outrageous act disgraced be-
yond rescue. While JEFF. Davis has
been set free, all who contributed to his
release are made infamous /; and the
odium which the arbitrator had in
voked on his own head, now reacts on
the heads Of his sureties.

The Daily Miners Register, the lead
ing paper in Colorado, comes out strong
" in favor Of female suffrage. At the
close Of a long and able editorial on the
subject, it says:
"In many Of u churches, women
have a right to vote as much as men,
and vet there is no loss Of refinement, or
anything that constitutes the loneliness
Of woman's character. They have been
admitted to the same classes in colleges,
and it has been found true that the in
fuence of one sex upon the other has
always been reciprocally good. Would
not the same influence extend itself to
politics and to the forum ?"

The population of Crete and the
neighboring portions Of European Tur-
key, the inhabitants of which are in re-

Greece and the Ionian Isles contain l.

WOMAN SUFFRAaR.-The New Orleans
Time, is in a very cheerful humor. After
remarking facetiously that the South 10
now swallowing, with ~"scsrcely a wry
face" the pensnce which the Radicals
offer as a cure for all Southern evils, il
suggests that il there is any other dose
to be prescribed it might az well be
brought forward now. The Radicals
have offered the "combined wisdom,
foresight and learning Of the eolored
race" as q remedy for the maladies Of
the late insurrectionary States, and ne
gro suffrage has been accepted there
with remarkable good nature. The
Times thinks the time propitious for in
Producing other Radical "isms" and
progressive" reforms, and says it would
perhaps be "better for all parties cou-
cerned to adopt all their 'isms' at once,
and thereby save the time that will
otherwise be wasted by taking them in
rotation" Since negro suffrage 10
deemed 20 advantageous to the South,
the Times thinks the advantages "might
be increased by gulping down the doc
trine of woman suffrage" After q
handsome eulogy upon the capacities Of
woman and her fitness to occupy COM
manding positions in literature, COM
merce or diplomacy" the Time, gallsnt-
ly comedies that every reason and every
argument must be in favor Of according
to her the privilege of voting, and that
the "reconstructed South" would be the
gamer BY her participation in the cleo
tive franchise. Says the Tmss: owe
appeal, therefore, to the g~allantry Of the
male voters, to give the standard Of
'Woman's Rights to the Southern
breeze, SO that the dark precincts Of the
election polls may be illuminated BY
their smiles, and the air Of liberty that
surges around the ballot-box may be
sweetsned By aromatic odors."

SCIENTIFIC writers inform us that
wood when continually exposed to a
very moderate heat, such as that Of
steam and hot water pipes, will, in a
space Of time varying from eight to ten
years, become so inflammable that it
will take FIRE at a temperature very lit
tie over that Of boiling water. The
wood undergoes a slow process Of char
ring, and it is said only awaits the ad-
mission of air (which it gets BY shrink
ing aud c~racking) to bursr out into
fame.

"AYrI-CootIE."-This is the name of
an association in California. The off,
GERS Of the principal association Of this
name are among the most intelligent
men in San Francisco, though many Of
them are laboriug men. They know
what "Coolie" means-a Chinese slave.
They titled their society, which is OPP
posed to the importation Of Chinese
slaves to this coast. All the Auti-Coolie
Associations in San Francisco supported
the Gorham ticket at the late Union
primary. The Chiuamau's organ said
that it rejoiced because the success Of
the Gorham tickle, was an "Anti-Coolie
defes.!" The only point 10 the whole
matter is, that the "rejoice" journal so
explicitly declared itself in favor Of
Coolie importation and employment.
