The Minstrels.-LaRue's troupe of Ethiopian
performers, gave their first entertainment at
the theatre last night, to an appreciative
though not very large audience. The weather
was too unpropitous for general turn out.
All seemed perfectly delighted with the good
music and clog dances. The various songs and
cnorusses In the first part, were excellent in
their line, and those of more sentimental
character were well. sung to the accompani-
ment of a good band. The clog dancing was
also much admired the banjo and Picolo
solos were first rate and the after-piece
Managers Trials was quite laughable. The
singing by Ricardo, and his personation of
IN illson," were extraordinary. His few ope-
ratio airs were admirably rendered and the
deception intended was complete in every
respect.
Tonight we are promised an entire change
of programme and we cannot doubt that the
theatre will be well filed.

THE QUESTION OF TAXATION.

This is question in which the people of
Tennessee are vitality interested in. While
every honest man feels individually re-
sponsible for portion of the State debt,
and feels that the disgrace of its repudia-
ton would rest, to some extent, upon him
personally, there is no man but that would
favor reduction of taxes to the very low
est possible figure consistent with the pub
hchonor and public credit. The Memphis
press has INDUCED in the discussion Of this
question to a considerable extent recently,
and we believe the appeal and Avalanche
each favor reduction of taxes. A recent
editorial on the subject in the latter journ-
al has some remarks on the subject, writ
ten in an admirable spirit, and which con-
tains some good suggestions. Instead of
charging the creation of the State debt
entirely to the Republican party, the AUa-
Laache has the following sensible and
truthful remarks:
1.-The burdens, instead of Tightening, grow
heavier with each year. Offices have been null
tipled for the benefit of office-seekers, and the
masses of the people alike unnterested in place
bills In the guise of reform and retrenehment
new taxes have been wrung from the people to
sustain the new offices. The constitutional con-
vention was grand Office mandatory. One
of It's chief works seemed to be the providing
of official crumbs for those whose mouths had
been so long open to receive them. These are
patent facts.
Now, that is honest talk. We do not
pretend to say that either one of the par
ties in Tennessee are wholly responsible
for the debt. 1t would be strange if any
man OF set of men should so conduct pub
lie affairs as to steer clear of any error at
all, and there is no sense in quarrelling
about how the debt has been created. The
question now is, how shall we pay it, so
as to prove the least burdensome to tax

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.

We publish in full this morning the
opinion of the Supreme Court in the cele-
brated Wing and Register Libel case. 1t
will be remembered that Col. Baxter
covered a Judgment for $4,000 In
the Circuit Court some months ago,
from which the defendants appealed
to the Supreme Court. The main
defenees relied on in the appellate
Court were, first, that the Judgement was
too large, indicating passion and prejudice
on the part of the jury, and secondly that
the libel complained of, having been part
of the proceedings in Court, was a privi-
legged document, and the newspapers
were justified in publishing it. 1t
will be noticed that the opinion overrules
both these objections and distinctly says
it would not reverse for either cause.
The point upon which the case was re-
versed was mainly because the plaintiff
introduced as evidence an extract from the
Cincinnati Enquirer, re-published i'll the
Wing, claiming that it was pertinent to
prove malice.
The case goes back to the Circuit Court
for new trial with the other cases still
pending. The opinion of the Supreme
Court, as we understand it, leaves the de-
PENDANTS without any legal defense for the
libels complained Of, so that the only ques-
ton for the juries to determine in the tri-
ais hereafter will be the measure of the
damages to be awarded. The reversal is
on technical grounds and does not affect
the merits of the case.
