Addenduna. The same question came before
the Court OF Appeals in New York in the case
of the city Of Utica VS.. Churchill ct ais, q Iliia

property, but permissible of the authority Oh Tie
State to tax the shares OF national banks
where they are located, or where the share
holders reside. as it shall determine by an en-.
abling act. saA.. ...
Chief Justice DEMO- in delivering the opin-
ion of the Court says, "Our laws, prior to tie
enabling act, required that the taxation of per-
sopaI property shall be in the town, or ward.
where the tax payer resides. was at first in
clined to the opinion that the provision Of the
national banking law, so often referred to,
might BIO considered as a change of our own
law, and might be sustained on account of its
relation to the national banks which are with
in the sphere of national legislation On
further reflection 1 have concluded that
1t would be more correct to hold that
the effect of the provso is to permit the
States so to shape their laws OF taxa
ton as to tax all the shareholders at the place
where the bank is situated, as has been done
by the enabling act" .t o..
Though the Judgment of the Court IN tnat
case was reversed by the Supreme Court of
the United States, on the ground that the New
York enabling act authorized tax upon the
shayes of stockholders in national banks at
greater rate than upon shares in state banks,
the correctness of the decision as to the discre-
tioadry power of the legislature to designate
he place of taxation was not questioned by the
United States Court. If the State legislature
has authority to fix the place Of taxation for
tori, has it not also the right to designate the
pace for whose use the tax shall be applied
The New York Court goes much further in
the assertion of State authority than I have
deemed it necessary to go, as the enabling act
OF this state raises the single question whether
the Legislature has the right to determine the
application of a tax assessed by its own au-
thority. JIG. D.

SHOCKING RAILROAD AccDENr.-Thursda
night the down freight train ON the Portland,

who was lying upon the track at the crossing
just east of the North Berwick junction. The
body of the man was torn and mangled in the
most shocking manner, the whole train having
passed over it. 1t proved to be Mr.. Theodore
Junkins, of North Berwick, and it is supposed
that in fit of intoxication he either laid down

Contributions for tho Relief Of Sufferer
by the Great Fire.

by the Great Fire.
We find the following paragraph in the
Springfield Republican of May 3D.
1t is said that two-thirds of the 100000 con-
tributed for the relief of the sufferers by the
greet Portland fire in July still remain in the
hands OF the committee.
We know not from what source the Repub-
lican obtained its information, but we do know
that it is entirely erroneous.
The whole amount received by the Mayor
was S56214014. The Executive and Relief
Committee received about $4,000, making the
total contributions $537, 14O.14. Of this amount,
$3.50, 31302 had been paid out up to Wednesday
last, and yesterday further amount of about
$1,000 was paid out.
A large proportion of the balance has already
been voted, by the Executive Committee, to the
sufferers, conditioned upon rebuilding. So
soon as the buildings are commenced and in
stage of progress, the owners will receive the
appropriations. st4a 4e-a-a- .as
The Executive Committee hold sessions on
Tuesdays and Fridays for the purpose of pay
ing out the appropriations. 1t has been an ex-
tremely laborious as we'll as unpleasant duty
for them to perform in allotting the gener-
GUS donations which poured in from all parts
of the Union; but they have acted judioiously
and with great care in the task which was COM
mitted to them. s~-
