Important Decision.

, The supreme court, in session at
Davenport, in the case appealed
from Henry County, Of Hanson vs..
Vernon township, has passed upon
the law enacted by the Legislature q
year ago, to enable cities and towns
to levy tax to aid the construction
Of railroads, declaring it unconstitu-
tional. This decision, which is not
unexpected, will affect nearly every
railroad enterprise in the state or
ganized during the last two years.
And yet it is hoped it will not who'll
~ defeat them. As aid can not be
obtained under the law, the citizens
willing to vote the tax should come
forward with equivalent subscrip-
tions to the stock, thus showing
their good faith, and ensuring the
success of the railroad projects

every State in the Union, through
the newspaper lens. He looks &C
ross the ocean and sees strange
lands, and following the sun, b.
searches oil around the world fol-
material. It will require but one
seconds time for the readers to take
in what ten hours search produced
BY him are read the manuscripts
that swarm the Office like dies in
July. It is his frown that dooms
them ; it is his hand that condenscs
a whole page into line; it is his
s:ernness that restricts sentimental
obituaries, that gives young poets
twig on which to sit and sing their
first lays.
And the power behind the throne,
in newspapers as in higher places,
is sometimes as important as the
throne itself. Correspondents, oc-
casional or regular, stand in awe
at the silent power which has che
least chance at an article. and may
send it forth in glory or humility.
And in short, as the body depends
on good digestion, SO the health of
a paper depends upon that vigorous
digestion which goes on by means
of the editor.
Ought they not to DO honored :?
And since little fame attends them,
they should at least have their crea-
ture comforts multiplied until from
that dark and dismal den in which
they have SO long endured purga-
torial residence, they are at length
translated.

Connecticut.

In Connecticut the Radi calls cleo.
ted a small majority Of the members
of the Legislature, but not enough
to enable their friends in that body
to carry the negro suffrage amend
mont Of the Constitution by the req
sisite majority of two thirds. And
they elected majority only because

total population Of only thirty-three
thousand, return to the Legislature

JupaE DAVID NoGaLE, the newly

not the most cultivated man in the

and again by every Wisconsin man,
will be readily recognized by few
who were present, as an actual oc-
currence. The judge was prosecut-
