GEN. HANCOCK AND THE TAX.

There seems to be some difference of opin-
ion as to the proper construction to be placed
on Gen. Hancock's recent publication con-
corning the collection of the tax imposed on
the people of this State by the Mechanics
Institute convention. His order to Mr.. Pc
rslta instructed that gentleman to make use
of all the usual processes of the law, to en-
force the collection Of the tax. The act of
Congress authorizes the convention to i'm
pose such tax, and Gen. Hancock comes
here to enforce the law. OF course when the
convention proceeds within the powers con-
ferred on it by law, the commanding general
is bound to sustain its acts. That he does
not intend to set up his own viii, in opposi-
ton to the law, we already know. He has
proved it in many different ways since he
came among us. But he is required to en-
force not only the laws which we like, but
the laws which we do not like. This is I'M
fortunate but it cannot be helped.
OF course, therefore, he is bound to come
to the assistance of the officers of the law
when they find themselves impeded in a way
that demands the intervention of military
power. Oeus hauCOck STATES Indbs III CGSe
the collection of the tax be forcibly resisted,
he will suppress such resistance by all the
means at his command. But no such resist
eDce is contemplated, and we have no idea
that Gen. Hancock intends to send q file of
soldiers to break open safes, and money
drawers, or to confscate mems property.
The commanding general likewise very
properly states that he has no reason to anti
cipate any ''illegal" interference with the tax
ordinance, on the part of the courts of justice
1t has been suggested that any interference
would be illegal. But legal interference
could not be illegal The presumption that a
court would issue an Illegal process is an as
sumption implying unimaginable ignorance
on the part of those tribunals. They have
right to issue processes, and, on the proper
application of taxpayers, to take other
measures for the purpose of testing the legal
ity and constitutionality of any legislative act
or ordinance. This is one of the purposes
for which judiciary is established. Consc-
quently it is to be presumed that under the
declarations made by Gen. Hancock, he would
not interfere to thwarth court of justice in the
exercise Of its legitimate functions, in relation
to this, or any other subject
