PROPOSED URBAN CITY.

THE rural portion of the State of New York
it appears, is thinking of divorcing itself from
the metropolitan portion, on the ground of
political incompatibility. From the tone in
which the metropolitan press speak of this
suggestion, there can be little doubt that
whenever the people of the rural districts
may formally propose to take their leave the
people of New York city will be perfectly
ready to answer, ''you can not take anything
that We would more willingly part withal
The proposition is now agitated in the interest
of the Radicals who wish to get rid of
the overwhelming Democracy of the city.
But whatever they might gain by
the separation, the general advantages,
political, municipal and commercial,
which would ultimately result from
it for the city would perhaps be still greater.
The truth is that the connection, in the
bonds of common statehood, between New
York city and the most of the country por-
ton Of the State, is purely arbitrary and
utterly non-spontaneous Add to this the
political hostility of the country portion
which so frequently controls the Legislature,
and by this means interferes in the affairs of
the city with vindictiye and oppressive legis-
lation, and it is easy to conceive the irksome-
ness of the association to the people of the
city. The pretext of the interference has
been the correction of the otherwise incurable
profigacy of the local government. But, if
we believe the rural as we'll as the metro
politan press, this prohigacy is greater now
than ever before. Plainly, then, State intru-
sion has not afforded the desired remedy. 1t
has doubtless aggravated the evil by dividing
responsibility between city and State authori-
ties and deluding citizens with the fallacious
idea that, somehow, abuses will be eradi-
Gated without any special effort on their
part The best thing for the city would be
such change as would devolve upon its
people the necessity of looking sharply and
constantly into the condition of their NUM-
cipal affairs. This would not fail to bring
home responsibility with wholesome effect to
public servants in all positions. The case Of
New Orleans is very similar. The substantial
people here, as in New York city, have been
too prone, as a general thing, to let alone
municipal affairs, in the vague and indolent
hope that, somehow, they would come out
right. Here, as there, they wake up now and
then to confused notion that affairs are
going wrong and they set about remedying
the consequences of their previous Austen
ton and insouciance by some such organiza-
ton as citizens or property-holders asso-
citation. But an ounce of prevention, timely
and positive, would have been worth hun
dred pounds of this tardy and problematical
remedy. No doubt New Orleans as well as
New York would be better governed as an
urban State than as city within the para
mount jurisdiction of State

We have not kept up with the Florida i'm
broglio; and we do not profess to know the
merits of the difficulty. What seems to be
plain is, that the carpet-bagger who calls him.

himsels for the carpet-bagger who calls him.

awags End negroes who call themselves sena-
tors take part with the lieutenant governor.
We forgot to state that the carpet-bagger who
calls himself governor is named Reed, and that
the carpetbagger who calls himself lieutenant
governor. is named Gleason, and that Gleason
calls Reed thief, and that Reed calls Glea-
son ditto. All of which rs probably true !;
but gains nothing in credibility by the source
from which it comes. The Florida thieves
have fallen out with each other-now let US
see how long it will be before the honest men
get their dues.

Telegrammatic and epistolary Conway has

Telegrammatic and epistolary Conway has
written letter to the New York Times by
way of personal explanation-the said per-
sonal explanation consisting of an assertion
that Col. Surgeons Endorsement on the
Grant and mendicant Conway's letter to
Grant regarding the First Infantry sis both
malicious and groundless." 1t will be remem-
bered that this Endorsement charged Conway
with attempting to collect money to which
he had no legal claim, sort of enterprise so
congenial to the prehensile fingers and accu-
mulative habits of vagrant and mendicant
carpet-baggers, that nobody was in the least
surprised to be informed that our superin-
tendent of public education had been i'm
proving his opportunities for that kind of
practice. 1t is only strange that he should
view tho statement in the light OF an
accusation, since, in the absence of such
a record, his history as a representative
of sublimated carpet-baggery and vagrant
and mendicant "loilty" would be sadly de-
fective. In his letter to the Times, Conway
reiterates that the First Infantry have been
CORRUPTED" by association with "rebels" in
this.city, and he now accuses Gen. Buchanan
of being mainly responsible for this deplor-
able condition Of the regiment In consider
alton of which the amiable Conway again
recommends that Gen. Buchanan and the
First Infantry be set to work scalping Indians
on the plains. But how if association with
the savages should again corrupt" the
regiment, and convert it into a body of whoop-
ing enemies of itinerant carpet-baggers? Is it
quite fair in Conway and his fellow Radicals
to want to intrust the care of the frontier
to men; who, according to Radical asser-
tons, gre sure to be corrupted" by
"rebels" and who would be Just as likely
to be corrupted by wild Indians? The
fact is that what Conway means when he
says that the First Infantry have been corrup- l
ted is that they have conducted themselves
like gentlemen and soldiers, and they have
discharged their duties without exhibiting a
spirit of hostility towards the people among
whom they are stationed. Conway seems to
think that soldiers are like dogs, and that
they ought to be chained up to prevent them
from losing the fierceness and ferocity which
this mild hammered carpet-bagger considers
an essential element of the soldierly charac-
ter. Fortunately the officers and men of the
First fantry know that their duty is to act like
men ard not like brutes; whereas it is by all
IuoanIs ioo-irvu w o~,--y --ii---,..~s
that trey should act like brutes and not like
men. In this sense they were probably ''cor.
ruptedH long before they came to New
Orleans. At all events they seem to know
Conway entirely too well to run any risk of
being corrupted by him.

The claim set up by the man Belot against
the city for compensation on account OF
damage inflicted on him by mob, is another
remarkable instance of Radical insolence.
This mans party or faction, or whatever they
may be called, deliberately deprive the people
of New Orleans of the power to protect per-
sons and property, and lodge it in the hands
of officials appointed by the so-called COVER
nor; these officials organize police which is
no police at all; mob breaks into Belofs
house and smashes few cigar boxes, and he
claims 500, 600 from the city by way of COM
pensation. Even if this person had lost
what he says he has lost, he would
have no legal claim against the
city; but the truth seems to be that he
did not lose one-tenth of the sum which he
demands. In fact, as we learn from Mayor
Conveys message to the council, on Tuesday
evening, the assessment rolls of the city show
that Belot returned only $500 of all kinds of
property for the year 1868. As the mayor
very properly suggests, the process by which
$500 for taxable purposes was expanded into
$500 for purposes of demands on the city
treasury, is very remarkable indeed. It
could only be accounted for by the claimants
relationship to member of the vagrant and
mendicant Legislature which recently met
in Dryades street. We rather think that
Belot will have hard time getting that
S26, 600.

CITY TAXES.

For the information of our readers we have
prepared, and submit herewith, table show

from 1852, the year of consolidation, to the
present: tar rua1 '

These taxes were levied upon the assessed
value of real estate and slaves only, and were
proportional between the Districts with re-
gard to the old debt of the former corpora
tons. In 1856 the tax became uniform
throughout the city, and was limited by the
charter of 1855 to one and half per centum
on real estate, slaves and personal property
ghe full amount permitted by the charter has
been levied from 1856 to the present time,
with the exception of the years 1862 and
1868, in which years the tax was reduced to
one per cent, and in 1862 personal property was
not taxed at all It will thus be seen that with
the exceptions of the years 1862 and 1868 the
tax has never been lower than it is now. The
total assessed value of real and psrsonal prop
erty and slaves in 1861 was over S125, 900, 600,
and the total assessment is only $12s, 900 900
for the year 1868. While the assessments
have increased very little, the expenses of the
city have increased very materially, in the APP
preparations for public schools and for
wharves, particularly. In consideration of
this fact, the Legislature of 1856
should have taken some action to-
wards amending the city charter SO
that the council might increase the rate of
taxation. An extra tax of one-half per cent
for the years 1866 and 1867, only would have
saved the city the necessity of increasing its
issue of notes, the deprecated value of which
has cost the treasury, during the last year, in
increased prices paid for contracts, and for
work done by the surveyor and street CON-
million of dollars. Had this course been
adopted, the floating debt Of the city, instead
of being nearly five million dollars, would
probably be less than half of that amount
The sooner, therefore, the city can fund
its floating debt, and receive into the treasury
for taxes, licenses, and other dues, United
States currency only, the better it will be for
the whole community. Moreover, the tax
proposed under the ordinance authorizing the
issue of three millions of bonds for the re-
demption of city money, is mere trife when
we reflect upon the great good to be attained
These bonds are made payable in twenty
five years, but with steady increase in the
value of taxable property, as compared with
The last fifteen years, the bonds will be alb
sorbed by the sinking fund or surplus of taxes
collected over and above the interest to be
paid, within fifteen years. If the city should
determine to issue two millions more of bonds
to pay the balance of the floating indebted
ness, it would not be necessary to levy an
exfra
