The following note from Mr.. Charles O'Conor con-
veys legal opinion respecting the new certificates Of
NEW YORK, March IA, 1858.
DEAR SIR-I have considered your inquiries con-
cernng the large number Of certificates for shares In
the Erie Railway Company, recently issued, bearing
date on or between the Sd and 7th days Of March
inst The legality Of these issues Is disputed and the
officers and directors who participated therein may
be compelled to redeem said certificates 1t Is not
questioned however, but that said certificates are
valid and binding as between the company and the
holders thereof In view Of pending litigation, and
for the present. deem 1t advisable that such cert-
hcates should not be surrendered for new certif-
Gates but should continue in their existing form.
am, dear sir, yours respectfully, G. O'CONOR.

The arrangements designed by nature always wise
and good and when they permitted to stand are in
varably productive of prosperity and happiness. But
the arrangements made by too often remarkable
only for the seshness and folly in which they had their
origin, and-as might we'll be antcipated-the fruits
they yield are crime and misery.

Soldiers, Fan Inl Fall mi

To get up the war and mako it
profitable TO themselves, the Radi-
cal rulers (who were formerly SER
wants only promised the soldiers
both money and land bounties
equally.
Bill No. 945, now before Congress,
only allows them land scrip by way
Of equalizing bounties. The money
bounties are repudiated
What can the soldiers do2 Why
nothing to defeat the bill but they
can do great deal to defeat those
who thus repudiate the nations
promises of equal money bounties.
To pay equal money bounties an
official report says, it would take
yet two hundred million dollars.
Large as that sum is, it couldiall be
sa9ed in two years by adisbanding
the useless Southern standing army,
and aholishing useless Radical Off

take the land scrip, and vote for q

pledge themselves to the fulfllment
Of tho nations promises to the men

Taxes Then, and ,Ta4os Now.

N p
There was a time, but a few years
since, when the Democra were in
power. The peoples taxes were
low. Indeed, nobody looked ahead
with forebodings to the approach
Of the tax collector. Not SO
now. The Radicals are in power
to-day, and there is not money
enough in the country-not green
backs enough in circulation-to pay
the peoples taxes. The following
brief paragraph, from the Illinois
State Register, contains whole
volume of truth in a very few
words pae 35tA' q ee-
"As ihsse are tax-paying times, let
the taxpayer, TO see the difference be-
tween Radical rule and the good old dayH
of Democracy, get out one of his oldtaz
receipts, made during the days Of Demo.

the items on 1t, and the total amount with

the difference, and then decide whether or
not the Radical or DemocrafiO party is
the best for the people-7Iax Payers
\ Yes, gentlemen--tax-pay
hunt up your old tax receipts, given
to you when Democrats were in
power, and compare them with
your tax receipts of last year and
this year. Theory is one thing and
practice is another. If you would
reduce theory to practice, turn to
your old tax. receipts and see for
yourselves the difference between
the theory and the practice Of a
cheap and expensive government.
If you find that you paid more
taxes or higher taxes when the
Democrats were in power than you
do now, then, when you come to
.vpte, by all means vote the Grant
Radical ticket. But if you find that
you pay ten times the taxes under
Radical rule than you didsunder
Democratic rule, then, to protect
yourselves against future increase
Of taxation, vote the Democratic
ticket. Look to the record--exam-
inc the witnesses--and then decide
as becomes men and &eemen who
would promote their own and~best
interests Of all their fellow citizens. /

The Portsmouth Republican (Black
of course) and other Radical dis
union sheets, are terribly alarmed
because the Ohio Legislature is in
session, and advises it to adjourn
and 60 home. We are in favor OF
the Legislature continuing its sos-
sion for the express purpose of un-
covering and exposing the rotten
ness and corruption in the several
departments of the State Govern
ment, as those departments have
been controlled for several yeurs
past by tribe of Apngry thieves
robbers, plumbers, Office seekers, &c,
who care nothing about the poor
people who work from sunrise till
sunset to pay the taxes levied by
the dishonest tribe above mention
ed. Let the Legislature remain in
session until the very last outra-
geous law passed by this tribe Of
tyrants is repealed-then the peo-
pie will rejoice and breathe easier.

TIE poOple ThiahiuS.

The wheels of revolutionary leg
islation will soon move on again,
and in the next six weeks the peo-
pie may see the beginning of the
end of civil government in the Uni
ted States, They seem to care not,
but there is a deep thinking going
on among the masses, and when they
find that their great right ola free
ballot to run a free government is
denied them, or that they are abridg-l
ed in the exercise Of that right, they
will wake up from the Atlantic ito
tho Pacific. Then, woe betide the
bad men who have trifed with the
people. If the. sovereigns fail to
find the wicked rulers and mete out
to them a just punishment. v
When civil government perishes,
then shall its destroyers also perish.

The Irish and Negroes,

Mr.. Hickman, a Radical member
Of the Pennsylvania Legislature,
made the infamous assertion that
San intelligent negro is superior to
an ignorant Irish Catholic, and
should have the preference to vote"
This assertion was made April I'd,
in debate on the registration law
bill, ANOTHER device gotten up to rob
the Democrats of Pennsylvania of
their franchises. The bill was pass.
ed under the previous question.

the equally notorious corruptionist
Dead duck FoRNEY with malieas-
ance in his Office as Clerk of the
Senate, in the sum Of $4,000, for
which the contingent fund Of the
Senate suffers. Forney, with his
usual nlsndaeity, charges the defal-
cation upon a relative and subordi-
nate of his named Wagner whom
Cameron endorses as an honest man.
The question has been referred to a
Committee to investigate the echarges,
and there the matter will be white
washed or permitted to sleep, as
Forney is chief dog to the impeach-
ers and does their howling through
his two papers "both daley" and
incessantly lectures and traduces
