The AcourTTAL OF PRINCE BoNAPARTE by the
High Court of Justice at Tours has created
an immense sensation and much astonish-
ment in France, but in other parts of the
world astonishment would have been the
result of the opposite termination of the trial.
The High Court of Justice is an institution
organized to acquit in such a case as this.
The article upon it which we published on
Saturday will show how exceedingly difficult
it would have been to secure verdict of
guilty, even with the material modification of
''extenuating circumstances 1t would un-
doubtedly have been much better for the i'm
perial regime to have SO manipulated the
affair as to secure a slight recompense to the
people for the useless killing of one of their
number, by the inhiction of nominal pun
ishment, at least, upon the passionate scion
of royalty. The Rochefort faction will now
be enabled to claim that Bonaparte may
slaughter whom he will without encountering
the risk of punishment, and such claim as
this will be productive of not little
mischief.

MARYLAND appears inclined at last to Sac
cept the situation" She has hung back as
long as the persecution and prescription of
''niggers' promised to bring forth good re-
suits in the endeavor to keep up on this con-
hnent white mans government. But now
that the fifteenth amendment has received the
sanction of the requisite number of States,
and only awaits the final action of Congress
in the case of Texas and Georgia before it is
proclaimed as part of the fundamental law
of the land, the nigger-hsters of Maryland
begin to exhibit signs of weakness about the
knee joints. The committee of the Legisla-
ture on the subject of the registration of voters
have reported bill striking out he words
''every white male citizen" from the laws
affecting the franchise, and providing that
every person shall be registered who possesses
the qualifications under the Constitution of
the United States and the laws made in pur-
suance thereof. If the extremely Democratic
Legislature of Maryland should pass affirma-
lively upon this proposed measure, it will
display more wisdom than is usually exhibited
by the Democratic Legislatures of the latter
half of the nineteenth century. But if the
Democratic Legislature of Maryland imagines
that by such legislation it can wheedle the
large oelored vote of the State, or any con-
siderable portion of it, into the Democratic
ranks, We fear bitter Disappointment is in
store. Maryland Democracy is not of that
stripe which is likely to find favor in the eyes
of the enfranchised freedman.

THE DEL1yoUENr TAX BILL.


BILL for the appointment Of a Collector
of Outstanding Taxes in the city of Philadel-
phia, having been passed by both branches Of
the Legislature and signed by the Governor,
is now a law and if its provisions are carried
out it cannot fail to benefit the finances of the
city. Under the present condition of affairs
it has been found impossible to follow up de-
linquent taxpayers with proper diligence,
and the consequence is that thousands of dol
lars have annually been lost to the City
Treasury b..
The bill provides for the appointment by
the Receiver of Taxes of person to be de-
nominated the Collector of all Outstanding
Taxes, who shall hold Office for three years,
and shall give security, in bonds to be ap-
proved by Councils, in the sum of three hun
dred thousand dollars. 1t is made the duty
of the Receiver to hand TO the collector the
registry of all delinquent taxes due the city
on the first of February, 1871, and in each sue
ceeding year the registry of the previous year.
The collector is authorized to collect the
taxes either out of the personal or real estate
of the delinquent and he is invested with full
power to levy and sell either the personal or
real estate. If description of taxable real
estate is not contained upon the Receivers
books, it is made the duty of the collector to
procure description and charge the cost of
the same to the owner, the cost not to exceed
in any case the sum of one dollar, and to file
liens, take judgment, and sell the real estate
upon which such taxes were levied within the
succeeding six months; provided, however, in
cases where the unpaid taxes shall not exceed
in amount ten dollars, he shall not expose
the said real estate for sale, but keep the
Judgment against it revived, and in all cases
of sales for taxes the collector is authorized
to bid for the property sum sufficient to
pay the city's liens on the same; and in case
of purchase to hold the same for the use of
the city subject to redemption under existing
laws. .,.. e..r
Under this bill the penalties and costs now
added to delinquents bills are retained. The
collector is required to make his returns
under oath to the City Treasurer every two
weeks and monthly returns to Councils, and
to the Board of Revision of Taxes a list of
such bills as are uncollectable. t5E
Various penalties are provided for the pun
ishment of the collector in case of the non-
performance of his duty, and his compensa-
tion is fixed at five per cent. on the amount
that he shall collect and pay over to the City
Treasurer, out of which he is to pay all the
expenses of advertising, Office rent, clerk
hire, and any other costs of collection.
Burdened as the city of Philadelphia is with
load of debt, it is of the highest Importance
that every dollar of the taxes should be col
lected, and those who habitually shirk their
responsibilities in this respect be brought to
| terms. .t 30. ... 11 l..s

WHO rs TO BLAME?

OK Saturday evening meeting was held in
the Fifteenth ward, at which serious COM
plants of insufficient water supplies were
made by number of gentlemen present. 1t
appears from their statements that for some
time past none of the residents of the district
in question who lived north of Spring Garden
street have had water above the second story
of their dwellings, and that even their
kitchens have not been supplied on Satur-
days, 80 that, while all their domestic arrange
ments depending upon regular supply of
hot and cold water have been seriously de-
ranged, they have been compelled to carry
water up from their cellars at the end of
every week. At this season of the year,
when the springs are high and the rivers full
to overfowing, there should be an abundant
supply for every one, especially in region
which suffered no special inconvenience
during the drouth of last summer. What is
the matter? Has the Chief Engineer been
tinkering with the Spring Garden Water
Works?

of her diversified industries. 1t would be
difficult to find Representative who would
supply this great need 80 well as Judge
Kelley. No new man could render equal
service, even if he possessed extraordinary
talent and zeal, until he had gained years of
experience, and gradually acquired the capa-
city to command the attention Of his col
leagues which the member from the Fourth
district now possesses in q remarkable degree.

The ONEIDA CALAMITY is receiving elabo-
tie discussion in England. The Pal MqH
|oSetfe, while condemning the brutal con-
duct OF Captain Eyre, expresses, however, the
hope Il at seme palhating circumstances may
Vt be announced which will tend to relieve
the English captain of the odium cast upon
him. But, as our readers are already aware,
he has condemned himself out of his own
mouth in the testimony taken at the official
investigation and, although he has at present
escaped with merely nominal punishment,
the United States Government is not done
with him. We trust that determined effort
will be made by the President to have full
justice neted out to this prince of pirates;
but, even if the effort should fail, or not be
made, Captain Eyre is henceforth an outcast,
and will wander about the world with the
brand of Cain upon him.
