The Legislature and tho Tax Bill.

To TIE Eaitors Of tie Daily Neaus:
GENTLEMEN Your paper of the 5th has just
met my notice, and while have no word Of de-
fence for tho Tax Bill which is the subject Of your
structures, I do ask to be permitted to say very
fow words which may satisfy your citizens that the
Charleston Delegation were not oblivious of the
interests of their constituents.
1 was in Columbia during the late session of the
Legislature, and in the House on each day that
the Tax Bill was under consideration; and obioc-
tionable as the Bill in it's present form may be re-
garded by the people, had it not been amended by
motions OF the Charleston Delegation, it would
have been received with much louder complaints.
These amendments very materially modified the
Bill, and were adopted by the House. On the se-
cond reading in the Senate most of the amend
mtpts we're stricken out, and the Bill restored al
most it's original form; 1.-The Housa refused its as
sent, and tho Blu as passed is the result;trs, Of
committee OF conference, in which the Committee
sustained each ITS o,on Uouse-and second, Of o
committee Of free conference, which reported at
near tacetue O'Clock at night, when it was evident
that the session must either be prolonged or the
Bill be lost, and the operations OF Government
cease. Hence its most Objectionable features
This is unquessionably duo to the late period of
the session at Which tho Committee of Wavs and
Means introduced the two most important bills-tho
Appropriation and Tax Bis-and this may be OBJ
which bills requiring appropriations may be in
troduced. The Committee Of Ways and Means
will then be enabled to approximate the amount Of
revenue required, and report tho Tax Bill earlier
in the session, when it can receive the careful in
vestigation which it's Importance demands. And
am also inclined to the opinion that q preliminary
discussion early in the session would authorita-
lively settle the principles which should control
tho Committee of Ways and Means in the imposi-
ton Of taxes, and materially obviate the difficult
ties Of the present routene. throw ont those
suggestions for the consideration Of. members,
whose position and experience enable them to di-
rect the course OF legislation.

WASHINGTON, January 14.-Assocate Justice
Field to-day delivered the opinion Of tho U1lted
States Supreme Court Il the Missouri lest Oath
case of John A. Cummins, Roman Iathohc
Priest, who was indicted for preaching and teach
ing without taking the oath prescribed BY the Con-
st1tution Of that State. Being plaintiff in error,
The court decided tho Test Oath in this case to be
unconstitutional, being in the nature OF punish,
nent without trial, and in it's character er posi-
fncto. and as bill of attainder, the Judgment OF
tho court below is reversed, with the directions
that the plaintiff shall depart without delay AS.
sociate Justice Field also delivered an opinion OF
the court In the er pdTte cases OF Garland and
Mari. who, having taken part IN the late re-
bellion, asked to be admitted to practice. Tho
court held that, as the State imposes punish
mont which may not have boen impossible at the
time tho offence was committed, 1t is, ln@lts ma "a
ture, an eG post facto law. Attorneys are not 9th
Gers Of the United States; they are officers OF the
c,lt+, ID hold their Offices during good behavior
The court is not tile register Of the adlcts OF any
other power. The appl cants have received
pardon from the President, which relieves them
from the consequences of their offence, and makes
the citizen, in the eye OF the law, what he was be-
fore the offence was committed. Congress cannot
limit the prorogative of mercy, and cannot fetter
it by legislative restriction. 1t follows that the
prayers # tee petitioners must be granted, and
also the PRAYER Of Mr.. MARI The rule which re-
oures attorneys to take tho Test Oath must be re-
scinded and the order is made accordingly. AS
sociate Justice Miller, for himself, Chief Justice
Chase, and Associates Swayne and Davis, read u
dissenting ouinion.
