"A Rev. Mr. Brayton, a returned

The report Of the New York tax commission
ers, prepared, it is understood, by Mr.. Wells, is
attracting much at ention in other states as well
as in New York. 1t proposes an entirely new
IS stem Of valuation and assessment, and urges
the importance of the change, on the ground of
the simplicity, fairness and efficacy of the new
system, and the conspicuous defects of the
methods now in use. NJ. Wells, in a letter Just
published, complains that the newspapers have
misunderstood and misrepresented the report,
In consequence either of its lack of clearness or
their lack of care in reading it. The report does
not, be says, as has been represented, recon.
meud throwing the whole weight Of taxation on
real estate, and wholly exempting personal
property, thus greatly augmenting the present
burdens OF real estate; SO far from this, the
system proposed would, by equalizing assess.
mene and efeetually taxing the great bulk o!
personal estate, materially diminish the rate Of
taxstlon now imposed on real property.
Mr.. Wells in his letter gives the leading fea-
lures Of his new system. 1t proposes 6rst 10
provide for the taxation Of all corpora,ions
created by the state which are in the nature of a
monopoly. In this class are included gas com.

ance society met in fremont Temple yesterday,
and was called to order by Mr.. J. NJ. Usher.
After some preliminaries, Mr.. VIM. H. Baldwin
of Boston, having been called to the chair as
temporary president, appointed a committee on
permanent organization, who reported for presi-
dent Hon. Edward s. Tobey, for secretaries VIM.

and list of one hundred vice presidents among
whom were Governor Clafiin, Oliver Ames,

sa Norcross, Fitchburg; Alfred Hitchcock,
Fitchburg; H. C. Gueley, Clinton; George E.
Towne, Ftehburg.
Mr.. Tobey, on taking the chair, made brief
address, saying they had met here to-day to
seek a solution of this old subject, trying to
avoid ordinations and recriminations, as this
cause can only be carried on with unity of
purpose. But recently the nation had risen to
the sublime height of striking the letters from
four millions of men, but to-day millions are
suffering from bondage more awful Intem,
pcrance is at present fortified by false public
opinion, and upheld by social custom. Against
| this they needed the influence of the press aud
the pulpit, the church and the Sabbath school
to enable men to become law unto them
selves.
He appealed particularly TO protesting Chris
uans to abstain from the use OF Intoxicating
beverages. If it was a sacrifice to abandon thu
use oil vine, then for their personal safety they
should give it up; but If, on the other hand, /
Is no secritce, then on what principle could the,
. keep up habit which causes such crime ant
misery in others?
