Nj. Brizzolari and Mr.. Phelan, of Mem
phis, had q quarrel which assumed public
character, ending in a Judicial decision
against one Of the parties. Immediately
upon this decision, Phelan sent a note to
Brizzolari, requesting him to name place
outside the city where he would receive
formal communication. Brizzo1ari desig-
mated n village opposite Memphis, on the
Arkansas side, and the time, next morning.
At the hour named, both parties, with
friends, were present. Phelan peremptorily
challenged, and Brizzolari promptly ac~
copied the weapons were navy 1avolyets,
distance fifteen PAGES, to fire at any time
after the word, and continue firing unH

r1ver and in full view from Memphis.
When the hour drew near, the bluffs on the
Memphis side Of the river were crowded by
several thousand spectators. Brizzola1i
and his aids took passage on steamer, and
the bout was filled with people. When the
steamer roaohed mid stream, tug came
alongside and took Brizzolari off, and the
steamer landed its passengers. When the tug
got near the shore, they met a skif with
white flag, bearing the adverse party. It
appeared that the Arkansas Sheriff WIS pre-
pared to arrest the whole parry, As the
skiff neared the tug, Phelan saw: Brizzo-

Here, then, lisa fair illustration Of the three
modes of ta1ation. Under the direct sys-
TEN, the State Of Illinois exercised an ab-
solute control over the imposition OF the
tax, not imposing penny more than was
needed for each specific purpose, and the
whole tax, less the cost of collection, was
paid into the State Treasury and applied in
its proper portions to the end for which it
WAS laid.
Under second illustration OF tariff for
revenue, the United States levied tax of
S2o,o5e, 800 on ten and coffee, and the
whole sum, less the cost of collection, was
received into the National Treasury.
The third instance is fair and striking
illustration OF taxation for protection The
United States, in its tariff, imposed tax
upon consumers Of pig iron, salt, blankets,
and cloth for women's cloaks, to the
amount Of $50, SEQ. 900, of which there was
paid into the Treasury, less cost of collec-
ton, s., 756, 600. The other fifty millions
WIS paid over to tha-salt company of Onon-
daga, the iron furnace companies, and the
blanket and cloth manufacturers. The
whole revenue needed by the gov
ernment to pay the interest on the
public debt is S12O, 600, 900. The protec-
tive tariff diyerts over $50, 100000 Of the
tax paid by the people on these four arti-
cles, from the Treasury to the pockets Of
certain privileged persons; thereby neces-
stating other taxes to make good the de-
iciency. The country is taxed by the tariff
and under the Internal Revenue Inv to pro-
iuce 800, GOO, 900 Of revenue year. The
Tax bill includes 1000 objects Of taxation.
Sine-tenths OF these objects are taxed rs
pig iron, salt, blankets, and cloakings are
taxed, not for revenue, but for the benefit
OF privnte persons. Twenty-Five articles in
the tariff, if taxed for revenue only, would
produce as much revenue to the govern
mcnt as the entire 1000; and the extent to
which the people are taxed, p1undered, and
robbed, under this indirect form of pro-
lection, may be estimated from the figures
We have given Of the four articles named.
Another form in which this taxation fol
private benefit may be illustrated. is the
tax On pepper, mustard, and-allspice. The
ta1 on mustard seed is 8 cents per pound ;
on mustard. II cents on unground pepper
the taI is Is cents per pound, and on
ground, is cents, and On allspice the same as
pepper. It will be seen that, in the case OF
mustard, there is difference Of cents 8
pound, and in each of the other articles o1
cents pound, against the ground article.
This tax is levied upon the consumers 70,
