THAT "DEcIsIoN."-It seems clear
that the late decision Of the Supreme
court is not clear. If you hold it reads
for the enforcement Of the law Of '67,
you start on a circle which logically
"swings round F" to a declaration of the
entire constitutiopality of the former
Revenue laws. One thing is more and
more clear, every day, that the Revenue
laws of '65, and Sc, would have brought
into the treasury q hundred thousand
dollars surplus, in two years, over and
above all expenses. You cannot figure
away the COURAGE" Of calling the
Special Session. In Jul judgment, as
before expressed, the decision Of the
court is q "legislating decision,-in-
tended to levy Sl.26 and Sl.25 on our
mines' proceeds. II is 3 pity that the
Judge was not more explicit. It is not
often that lawyers are 50 wholly at vari-
ance, as now, on the effects of a decision.
If the principle can be made to hold
good, that by taking out a portion Of a
bill, by a process Of Supreme court eI-
section, you can legisiate BY Court and
Court Interpretation of the Constitution,
against the known understanding and
will of the legislature, let us know.
It will be bran new doctrine. It should
be crystalized, and sent to the Paris
%ernosition.

sold his share to Geo. W. Bliss, and
Howe was enabled to buy out Bliss.
From ls49 to 1854 it was q dear fight
for his patent right. Howe gained n
complete victory. The final decision Of
1854 was made when nine years had
elapsed since the completion of the first
machine and when 8 years of the term Of
the FIRST patent had expired. Then

KRUrrScHNrTT ON AND OFF THE
DECISION.

We have been favored with a call
from our friend Assessor K~ruttschnitt,
who with the last Revenue law in one
hand and the late Supreme court decis-
ion in the other, candidly confesses that
after two nights sleeping over it, he has
retired from the Judicial forum, and
fallen back IN FIRST principles and COM
mon sense. He has not found two law
yers who agree as to the correct inter-
probation Of the decision, nor one that
is willing to risk his reputation on q
construction of the construction"
Herr Kruttschnitt says that it appears
most probable that the Supreme court
intended to make a legi,lating decision.
But there are so many go-backs in the
reading, that it is difficult to swear
what is affirmed. In regard to one OF
two Of the assertion, in the decis-
ion, our Assessor says, they are not
true,-they are very far from being
tEuc. nc sogs, Ai AAss1uSo, SHes she
mines pay on every dollar of ore in the
limit Of law. The assessments or the
mines, he says, are the closest Of all.
If the common Interpretation of the
d~ecision-the common suspicion as to
its meauing-be true, Mr.. Kruttschnitt
says that the mines cannot pos,i6ty abide
it. They are taxed on a system Of actual
worth, with a power to investigate as
to their value, such as is held over no
other kind Of property. II, really, a
supplementary special session Of q Leg
i~slature for Nevada has been held in the
Supreme Court rooms, the Assessor does
not recognize its statutes. He says he
has been a public officer for many years,
but he never before heard Of Assessors,
or other county officers, being repri-
manded by Supreme Court for
not deciding on the constitutionality
Of a law, SO as to draw more taxes
from the people. He quite agrees in
our view, that one thing is eleGr-that
the present Court consider, or 50 affect
to consider, the Assessors Of the State a
set Of fools, but if ever his humble judg-
meut meditated on q document which
indicated foolishness in its inditers, the
decision" is the first and foremost Of
that list. Mr.. Kruttschnitt says the
personal property" SO called, the i'm
provemsnts Of the mines this year pay
a tax amounting to $i5, 900. Our wor-
thy Assessor is "st sea" so far as the
decision is concerned; Ferguson's dash
ing msdcaps are surging about him,
whenever he launches forth on the last
Supreme Cour, schooner. In truth
and to get IN land-he is philosophic-
ally cool on the subject; but you'd like
when abused by the Supreme Court, to
ascertain the real reason for the abuse
in a context tina, can be understood by
lawyers and laymsn Of average sagacity.

A RUSSIAN engineer exhibits a rail

crablo curiosity, The object is to save
the power gained in decent, now
lost in the friction of the brakes, with
wear and tear, and use it in and ascent
To do this the engineer has attached
TO the locomotive two very heavy fly
wheels. Going down hill they act as
IA brake, and the force they gather will
carry the train up an equal rise, less
the friction. Here a model train load
ed with water runs down sharp in
cline, the water runs off, and the force
ofthe tly. wneel carries the train back
to the place ofstarting. In this way

incline, from the pit mouth for example
