Declaration of the Principles OF the
,;Ormmune

NEW YORK, May S.-The most au-
thentic declaration Of principles yet made
by the Paris Commune is contained IL a
long manifesto, printed in the Journal
O6fcieL, of April 18th. which reached
New York to-day by the steamer Java.
That document. after explaining that the
precise character of the Commune is mis-
understood, speaks of the Paris revolu-
ton as follows: " What does she de-
mand2 Tie recognition and consolida-
tion of the Republic, and the absolute au-
tonomy of the Commune extended to all
places in France, thus assuring to each the
integrity of its rights, and to every
Frenchman the full exercise Of his facul-
ties and aptitudes as man, citizen and
a producer. The autonomy of the Com
mune has no other limits but its rights.
The inherent rights Of the Commune are
to rate the commercial budget Of receipts
and expenses, the improving and altera-
ton Of taxes. the direction of local serv-
ices, the organization of the magistracy,
internal police and education; the admin
istration of the property belonging to the
Commune; the choice of election or com
petition, with the responsibility and per-
manent right of control, and revocation
of the Communal magistrates and officials
OF all Classes the GOSoluLe guarantee OF
individual liberty. and liberty of con-
iscience the permanent Intervention of
the citizens in communal affairs by the
free manifestations of their ideas and the
free defense of their interests. Paris
wishes nothing more under the head of
great guarantees, on the well understood
condition Of regainIng, IN grand central
administration and delegation from the
Federal Communes, the realization and
practice of these principles, but in favor
of her autonomy; and, prohhng by her
liberty of action, she reserves 70 herself
to bring about, as may seem good to her,
administrative and economic reforms,
which the people demand, and to create
such institutions as may serve to develop
and further education. produce exchange
and credit, help to universalize power and
property according to the necessities Of the
moment, the wishes of those interested,
and the data furnished by experience. The
Communal revolution, initiated by the
people on the 18th of March, inaugurated
a new era in politics, experimental. posi-
tive and scientific. 1t was the end Of the
old governmental and clerical world, of
military supremacy and bureaucracy, and
Jobbing In monopolies and privileges, 10
which the people owed its slavery and the
country its misfortunes and disasters The
strife between Paris and Versailles is one

sory compromlse a -

opened, and the whole face OF the country
has undergone a wonderful change. The

of an abundant harvest was never better

As an evidence of the rapid strides Nc
have made in the science Of taxation, it
has been stated that the whole amount
collected by the general government, in
1886, was $29, ,6S4, ,l57; IN 1863, $3.50,
903, 745, and in 1870, $Al2, ,O65, ,924. From
less than thirty millions in 1886 to over
four hundred Iail6ons IN 1870 is pretty
rapid progress. Is it any wonder that the
