TAXES FOR YORK COUNTY.

We learn from the County Auditor that the
State Board of Equalization, now in session at 70
lumbia has added Is per cent. to the valuation o.
the Real Property returned in York County. BY
this addition the taxable value of real estate ir
this County is raised from 81, 709, ,s2l to 1892,
1885,, The Auditor is instructed oadd Is per cent
to the return of real property of each taxpayer.
The valuation of personal property is not changed
by the Board. 1t was returned at 81, 309, 100,
which,, with the amended value of real, estate,
makes the entire taxable property of York Coun'
ty amount to $4,3Ol, ,376. 81! = .'...-#.... =
Our people will doubtless be much grati6ed to
learn that they are so much richer than they
thought they were but they viii pay: a heavy
price for their sudden increase of wealth. The pei
oentage of State taxes has been fixed at seven and
one half mills on the dollar, or seventy-fve cents
on the hundred dollars The county tax will be
three mills on the dollar, making total Of one
dollar and five cents on the hundred dollars to be
paid by the tax payer, exclusive Of poll tax.
The Auditor estimates the taxes to be raised In
York, including the polltax, at nearly $50 600.
This is pretty good load, even for county whose
property amounts to 81 OOO, ,O00. Its one of those
loads, however, which must be carried, and our
people may as well prepare to "ante-up;" tor they
will undoubtedly be called on very soon. -~i
:, TheState Auditor has issued circular instruct
ing County Auditors not to furnish to Township
Selectmen lists of property in their respective
townships. Ipasmuch as the County Commission,
ers are allowed to, and probably will, assess tax
of three mills on the dollar. he decides that no
further tax can be levied the said three mills on
the dollar being the utmost tax allowed by law tor
all county purposes. This decision relieves the
people of township tax, fixed to be not less than
eighteen cents on the hundred dollars which would
have been additional to the taxes mentioned above,
and would have amounted to not less than $7,742
in this county. e.. ,,
Township Selectmen may save themselves the
trouble of applying for property lists, under this
decision, as they will not have power to make any
assessment IN such lists :.

THE MEMPHIS CONVENTION.

/ The commercial convention, which met at Mem
phis, Tenn, on the 18th instant, was attended by
delegates from all parts Of the country, most Of
whom represented cities, though some were sent
there by State authorities, agricultural and other
organizations At the opening Of the convention,
eight hundred delegates were present, and by the
evening of the third day the number had increased
to eleven hundred. The President elected was Gen.
Anderson, of Ohio, who was colonalin the Fed
eral army, during the war .....
Politics were ignored, though every stripe OF
political opinion was present. A letter from Gen.
R. E. Lee was read, which was greeted by three
rounds of applause from all parties. Many promi.
nent men were delegates, and among others, Sena-
tor Sprague addressed the Convention. Despatch
es were received from Gems. Beauregard and FIRE.
mont, and other distinguished ''Rebs' and Union
lists, who seem to make much more rapid headway
in the work Of harmonious reconstruction than
Congress has ever been able to do.
The prominent topics we're Commercial eonnec-
tions between the South and West, direct South
ern trade with Europe, the Southern Pacific rail-
road the Mississippi evees, the Culture Of cotton,
Immigration to the South, and, connected with
the latter, the best modes Of procuring and sustain
ing labor
There was great deal of talk; but whether any
cider will result, remains to be seen; 1fresolu-
tions accomplish anything, many desirable enter
prizes may be considered as secured but resolu-
tions unsustained by action are not very material
assistants to internalimprovements. At events,
the convention will dogood in one way, if in no 9TH
er. 1t has brought the people of heretofore hos
tile sections together, outside of the arena of poll
tics. On the ground of commerce and agriculture,
they can har,nonize at once, and by so doing may
prepare the way for harmony in all things.

The Rev. W. II. Miburne, the "blind
Preacher lectured at Darts Hall last even

The audience was a large and Intelligent
one. and the lecture most interesting
The lecturer opened with some touching
illusions to his physical deprivation, and
the effect i. had upon the mind; testifyiog 70
that intitutive perception which blind man
soon acquires, concluding with beautifully
conceived and affecting apostrophe to the
sense Of sight He then, made an expIans'
ton to his audi,Ace, of ths possibility of his
taking in tbs appearance ofmen and objects,
;p,n;t;,ciy owing mainly to the fact Of his
b.rng possessed the sense Of sight the first
FIVE years Of his life, when the mind is most
sbsorptive, Of appearances. He then took
his audience with him on days walk
through Paris. Beginning with the French
mans breakfast,at noon, be walked through
the Boulevsrds, noticing the various public
buildings, palaces and prisons as he passed,
and giving brief and graphic picture OF
the historical associations connected with
them. The lecture was replete with drsmst'

exquisite humor, and Astounding in un'
strained natural pathos. The interest OF the
audience was held from the first word to the
last, and though his fine musical voice, was
renderedly slightly harsh from hoarseness,
his delivery was easy and fluent, and his
manner graceful, Notwithstanding the defect
of sight. Everybody came away with the con-
cluson, that a blind man, such as the Rev.

better than most travelled Americans use

THE Forts MArTER.-Sometime since
we gave publicity to a Davenport sensation,
occasioned by uuearthing, in a lot in the
rear of the the office Of medical gentle
man, 8 number of bottles containing fDtal
remains The bottles were said to be
twenty in number, each one containing such
remains, but when the matter was slfted Of
exaggeration, the bottles did not number
above half dozen, not more than half Of
which they were found has been the head
quarters Of some physician for nearly q
quarter of century, and is now occupied
by DR.. Peck. The matter created consider
able excitement ut the time, and coroner's
investigation WAS ordered which resulted in
nothing. That there might remain no
doubt as to who put them there, DR.. j.. W
H. Baker of Davenport, President of the
medical association of the county, wrote 10
DR.. Adler who formerly occupied the office,
but who now lives in Philadelphia. He
replied stating that at one time he had
buried in that locality lot of rubbish
among which were two fetal specimens be-
longing to himself and two others full
grown belonging to physician some time
since deceased and to another physician not
now resident of the city.
This explains the Fetus sensation fully
and entirely exonerates any resident ply.
