TAXING BONDS.

The Standard says in relation to taxa
ton of bonds:
THE Journal must know that the govern
ment never promised not to tax them itself
that no court has ever decided that it cannot
tax them, and it knows that the government
has taxed them by way of the income tax
trifing in amount to be sure, but enough
nevertheless to establish the principle, and it
knows that the democracy propose to have
the general government tax them and not
State or municipal authorities.
And the Journal knows that the govern
ment never did tax them, that the courts
have never decided that the government
should tax them, and moreover that they
never will be taxed under this or any other
administration. We are surprised that the
Standard should advocate taxation of
bonds, for non-taxation is one of the sensi-
BILE precedents established by very re-
spectacle line of democratic administra-
tons, and for the democracy to Ego back
upon the "old fathers" that they admire SO
much is ungrateful indeed. Let the
Standard study the fathers" repent, be
wise, and harp no more about taxing
bonds.

THE BONAPARTE ASSASSINATION

THE BONAPARTE ASSASSINATION
The assassination of Victor Noir by
Prince Bonaparte, occasions great excite
ment in France. The murderer is son
of Lucien Bonaparte, a brother to the first
Napoleon and cousin to the Emperor
lie is fifty-four years old, and has been
engaged in quite number of desperate
fights on his own account. The paper of
Rochciort denounced the Bonapares as
assassins and called for vengeance, but
has been suppressed. The funeral of
Noir took place on the 18th. Dispatches
says :
The Government expecting a demonstra-
ton, made extensive preparations to preserve
order, and at an early hour all its police and
military arrangements were complete. During
the morning people began to gather round the
house where the remains were lying, coming
from all parts of the city.
At eleven O'Clock 5000 workmen from the
Faubourgs had passed up the bouvelards on
their way to the funeral. Many carriages,
with ladies dressed in mourning, drove to the
house to Join in procession. At one p. NJ,
the Populations of workingmen visited the re-
mains. The streets from the Place de la
Concorde to the Rue de Anteuil were filled
with vast throngs of people. Fr
The carriages containing noted persons were
surrounded by the crowd and their occupants
cheered. The weather was cold and heavy
rain was falling but the number present con-
tinued to increase. Between2 and O'Clock
more than 100000 persons were assembled in
the vicinity where the remainsreposed. Henri
Rochefort attended the funeral, and his APP
pearance called forth great demonstrations of
enthusiasm from the people.
The remains were taken to Neumy for in
terlnent, whittier they were followed by a
long procession. The crowd wanted to pa
rade with the body through Paris, but Louis
Nor, brother of the deceased, refused his
consent. At the cemetery there were fire.
quent shouts of ''Vive la Republique J" and
the Marsellaise was repeatedly sung by the
people during the day. While Nj. NJ. Roche
fort and Raspail were coming down the
Champs Elysees, accompanied by great
crowd, who were singing the Marseillaise,
they were stopped by a regiment OF troops
and the crowd was ordered to disperse.
Rocheiort, claiming his right as a Deputy,
passed on to his Chamber, where he arrived
pale and excited. The Champs Elysees,
were soon cleared by the troops. Two bat
talions were stationed near the Hall of the
Legislative body, and five regiments were
massed on the Boulevard close at hand. The
crowd finally dispersed without offering re-
sistance, but some arrests were made by the
Police.
