| Under the provisions of the law imposing the
tax of $685. $40 &C on South Carolina and the acts
amendatory thereto, the land Of the plaintiff was
sold December l, 1863.
1t ia especially notod in advance that the consti-
tutionaity of the Acts Of August S, 1861 and June
7, 1862, and Acts amendatory thereof is not in
question. Nor is there any question as to the as
sessment and collection of the tax, the time and
No such questions mooted, and nothing will be
said Of them ip the argument.
| The Act under which the land was sold provides
6, lSs redemption and if it's requirements in that
roan, >% are complied with, then the petitioner is
ont;t,oa - redeem; if not, the law must take its
oo,,rso To I'd solo for delinquent taxes may be

nv tbe Guardian +, uStee " other person having
CHARGE Of the person OF estate of such person" !"
" ,nv time within two yea after the sale thereof
in the following manner:
/. He must appear in his own pr per persoA pe-
fore the Board of Tax Commissioners. K Ii cili-
zen he must take the oath to support the Con-
stitution of the United States. g. He must pGV
the tax and penalty with interest from the date OF
the Presidents proclamation at the rate OF fifteen
per centum, together with the expenses OF sale
and subsequent proceedings
The Tax Commissioners, appointed under the
Act of June T. 1862, are ministerial officers, and are
bound to the faithful performance OF all duties as
SUCH Where discretion is given to them by the
statute, they must exercise it In good faith; ana
where the statute is positive and definite, they are
bound to abide by its provisions. AS to the man
ner of redemption they have no discretion. Where
an applicant fails to comply with the terms OF tne
law, the Commissioners have no power to aid him'
and he, therefore, cannot redeem.
1t has not been pretended, in the argument OF
the counsel for the plaintiff, that the petition was
4 petition to redeem. Then it does not conform
to the law. But if it we're can that be regarded as
| q personal appearance before the Commissioners
an appearance attended by the payment OF money
or the taking OF an oath-thngs essential to be
| done before an individual can redeem? No Court
| would dare to nuNuy law by such construction.
What does the petition ask? The application
filed with General Saxton asks for "return" of
the land. First, Who is General Saxton. and what
had he TO do with it2 He is military officer,
with special functions namely, the care and con-
troll of the colored people. He is not a COM
mander, and pretends to no such powers. This
paper is thrown into his Office. Not having any,
thing to do with the matter, he sends it to the
Tax Commissioners. There is note on the hack

We publish to-day with sad eratifi-
cation the proceedings Of the board of
Directors of the Charlotte & South

This testimonial is a fitting tribute to
the memory of this true man and citi-
zen, whose public virtues and quail
ties, whose integrity, patriotism and
ability were mingled with the public
events of so many years but it is en-
incntly appropriate from a corpora
tion whose earliest fortunes were COM
mitted so largely to his zeal, clear
Judgment and ability. 10 the sympa-
thy SO we'll expressed by the board

Sacred Music

Mr.. Editor:
There is an evil under The sun not much
complained of, but it is not because COM
plant is irrelevant
While vocal music should bc practiccd
with regard to certain rules, it is certain
that no particular rules arc observed.
Distinctncss of pronunciation should be
The first requisite in tho qualification for
good Church music. What advantage ia
there in Notwithstanding" over SO i.
rics of stanzas In poetry?
Let tho mouth be we'll opened, and each
syllable of each word DO brought out with
distinct articulation, and emphasis, whore
it is needed, and not moutAcd up like an over
dose of hot mush and cold water.
One clement in singing is togivc clear ar
ticulation, and to do this, proper attention
should DO paid to cuphony of sound, if the
expression may be allowed
Vowcls should run into voscls with q
marked distinction Of sound, or whore the
terminal vowel runs into tho opening ono,
it should DO with distinct separation: rs
Tor instance, when tho former is "c'' and
the latter the same letter, the vowel should
have tho sound of "o' as in "bc," but
when 1t (t) terminates word before anoth-
or beginning with q con,onant then tho "o''
should have the sound Of "e' as in tho SO.
cound syllable Of counterfeit.
Another feature in pronunciation when
practised in singing is, to follow, not tho
practice Of tho singer, but that of tho COM
poser. For instance, when q writer makes
tho word "wind" rhyme With tho word
"mind," no matter what may have been tho
practice, or education Of the singer, bo or
sho should pronounce tho word with n lonc
81"
Those hints arc thrown out becouso
they arc not Inapplioable in monv
cases of singing rs We have it in this div
and generation. IF any application can bo
made OF thom, or any further thoughts sua.
gesled upou thom, The purpose of this brice
notice will be accomplished.
