The People VS.. Taxation.

The Constitution of 1852, az
ticle 123, contains the follow
ing provision;
"All property on aohich ta1es
mag be levied in this State shall
be taxed in proportion to its
value, to be ascertained as di-
rected by law"
Article 124 of the Constitu-
ton of 1864 and article 118 of
the constitution of 1868 are
identical, and as. follows
Taxation shall be equal and
uniform throughout the State.
AH property shall be tared ile
proportion to ITS GdIue, to be as
certained as directed by law.
The General Assembly shall
Rave polcer to exempt from tar0-

poses" sc.
In section Cd of An Act en-
titled San act to provide for in
creasing the revenues of the
State, and raise means to pay
the interest on the State debt, "
approved April 4th, 1866, and
under which act the present
State taxes were assessed and
are sought to be collected, We
find the following F.:
"Be it further enacted, &c.
That the following property
shall be exempt from taxation
All lands and lots of grounC

and all other property belong

IF the Legislature had an
right to exempt the above PR

MIR. EDITOR: The last tax
law of one per cent. imposed
by the Radical Legislature ap-
pears to be unconstitutional. It
levies the tax on the assessment
of 1867, which makes it clearly
to my mind retroactive. Retro
active laws are forbidden by
the constitution. The Legisla-
ture would have equal right to
levy a tax according to assess
ment of 1860. r.

fundamental principle of our
government that every species
ofproperty shall bear it's por-
ton of the burthen of taxation. !
Under this fundamental princi-
pie the Legislature, without
such right conferred by the
Constitution, would have no
right to exempt any species of
property from taxation.
That the trainers of the con-
stitution of 1864 so understood
this to be a fundamental prin-
ciple ofgovernment, and inten-
ded to incorporate it in that
clause of the constitution that,
"all property shall be taxed,
&c." is mnde clear by the fol-
flowing clause in which the
right is reserved to the legisla-
ture to exempt certain species
of property from taxation, to-
wit: property actually used
for church, school or charitable
4 purposes" And made still
clearer by the manifest differ
ence to be found upon exami-
nation, between article 123 of
} constitution 1852, and article
124 of constitution of 1864, and
118 of constitution of 1868. In
the case of the city of New Or
leans Us. the Commercial Bank
of New Orleans, reported in
! 10th La. An. Reports, page 735
: and 736, which arose under the
constitution of 1852, the Su-
preme Court of this State held
that the Legislature had the
right to exempt property ofthe
) defendant from taxation be
cause article 1913 of constitution
=, 1852 reserved the right of the
, Legislature to "erenpt amy pro
