change was that in the month of May many
wealthy people left the state for watering and
other resorts, who could be found here on the
first of April, The change thus proposed would
conform more nearly to the time fixed in other
states,
Mr.. Thomas Hills, one Of the assessors of Bos-
ton, objected to the change, as it would disar-
range the whole system of assessing, as now
fixed If any change was to be made he thought
that the first day of January in each year should
be selected; but he would not favor this until
selectmen and assessors were elected for term
Of three years.
On an order to consider the expediency of
amending the revised statutes, so as to exempt
incomes derived from professions, trades and
employments from taxation, Mr.. Beard, of
Brookline, who offered it, claimed that such tax
alton was wrong, both in principle and practice,
as taxes should be levied only on property, and
not on trades, etc, which were obtained after
hard study. This income tax was also abused
in the manner of its employment, for in differ
cnt towns the boards of assessors had different
rules of construction, from which, practically,
there was no appeal. The man working on a
salary in Boston, and living out of town, either
has saved money enough to purchase q house,
or else he pays the taxes or rent for one, which
entities him to all the privileges of the town,
and they had no just right to tax him for what
he obtained solely by knowledge.
Mr.. Hills opposed the proposition, and said
that while it might not materially affect Boston
or Brookine, it would detract largely from the
prosperity of many other municipalities, and
would seriously affect the cause of education, to
which much of it was applied.

WEDNESDAY. JANUARY as, 1871

Ii can be seen in the reports from France, that
the French people desire peace, which the pro-
visional government refuses to accept. Since
the late overwhelming defeats of the French,
Gambetta has delivered furiously defiant and
warlike speech, at Lille while, at the same
time, all the papers of that city are advocating
peace, much to his disgust. Gen. Trochu tells
his colleagues that it is necessary TO surrender
Paris to the Germans, since ali the French
armies outside the city have been defeated, and
there is no force in Paris capable of raising the
siege; but his colleagues answer with fury and
accept his resignation; but, after appointing
"triumvirate' to succeed him, they dare not
take the responsibility of directing the defense
of Paris; therefore, Trochu is reinstated.
The insane refusal to make peace is due chief
ly to Gambetta. He is really the head of the
provisional government, and has done more
than any other man to raise armies and con-
tinue resistance since the battle of Sedan; hope
less resistance, it is true for the struggle was
decided in favor Of the Germans, when the EN-.
peror and his army were captured, and the war
should have ended at that time. Gambetta and
his associates did not then expect to succeed
any more than they expect to succeed
now. But they said, to fight on defantly, will
draw the people to us and enable us to organize
the republic. They forgot, that, in France just
now, want of success is regarded as treason, al
though they themselves have made Bazaine,
Palladines, and others, feel this. The truth is,
Gambetta and his supporters, have made the
republic impossible; but, perhaps il was already
impossible, even while they declared it, They
appeared to think so then, for they positively
refused to hold an election for a constituent as
sembly.
1t is plain that organized resistance to the
Germans can not be maintained much longer.
Paris will surrender; in some way, peace will
be secured; and then the election of consttu-
ent assembly, to establish a new government,
can no longer be delayed. The assembly when
elected, will not organize republic. There is
now much less hope of its doing so than there
would have been four months ago. A restora-
ton of the empire, for which the Bonapartsts
are plotting, seems no less impossible 1t is far
more probable that France will restore the Or
leanists; and it can be said safely, that the
Count de Paris is far better and wiser man
than Louis Napoleon Bonaparte.

The CnIored Cndet.

A correspondent of the Army and Navy Jour
nal, writing from West Point, says: about the
colorcd cadet too much has already been said
will only add that, to my positive knowledge,
he has been entirely ignored and unmolestcd
by his fellow cadets" The purpose of the
writer, whom we need not quote at greater
length, is evidently to make it appear that
Smith, the colored cadet, has only himself to
blame for his misfortunes, and that his comrades
are not at all in fault. They have simply, ac-
cording TO this defender of theirs, who claims
to speak from his own knowledge. ignored
him altogether. That is, Of course, they have
refused to associate with him, to allow him to
join in their amusements, or TO speak to him
except when compelled by the requirements of
the service. The ignoring process, in all proba-
bility, was not wholly negative, but included
contemptuous looks and gestures, supercilious
words not addressed to him, but to others in his
hearing and for his benefit, and various annoy
ing practices of that character. This kind of
treatment is not only much more difficult to be
checked by the authorities of the academy, but
it is also infinitely more exasperating to the boy
than any positive physical rough usage.
He would be a marvel of patient endurance if
he did not occasionally break out with some
kind of protest against such ingenious cruelty.
Then, when he breaks dipper over the head of
one of BIS termentors, or kicks another, these
exemplS v r0ang men eXclaim with wonder at
his violent and dangerous temper owe have
given no provocation," they say, eve have en-
tirely ignored him." 1t is not a question of IA
miliar association with an uncongenial compan
ion. The young men are not obliged to make an
intimate of Smith, but he has a right to the or
binary civilities of decent society. In with
holding them his fellow cadets are guilty of
conduct unbecoming officers and gentlemen, and
they are towards and hypocritcs when they pre-
tend to be innocent of any occasion for his mis-
behavior. 1t is not easy to deal with this kind
of persecution, and very likely Smith may not
be able to endure it with such success as to re-
tain his place. But if he is driven out, it ought
to be remembered that, from his associates at
least, he has not had fair play.

Then they built fire, and proceeded to cook
their bananas as usual. While they were thus
cooking their food, Maui suddenly sprang from
his hiding place, and seized one of them, with
the wood, and the bananas. At this the rest
took alarm, and brushed the fire out with their
wings, and even swept away the ashes. Maui
then tied the feet of his bird, and was about to
wiring its neck in revenge for his disappoint-
mcnt, when the Alae called out, "Kill me not, or
you get no fire."
"Then give me the fire" demanded he. go
and rub the stem of the taro leaf for your fire,
was the answer. So he obtained taro leaf and
rubbed away, and the hollow made by his
rubbing remains in the stem of the leaf to this
day. Again he demanded of the Alae, "Give
me the fire. If not, you die. There is no
escape"
go and rub on the stem of the ii leaf" re-
piled the bird. So he rubbed away at the stem
of the ii leaf, but no fire appeared, though his
rubbing made hollow which remains in the
stem to this day. His wrath flowed over, and
he went back determined to kill the bird. But
the Alae again spoke, saying, "Kill me, and you
lose the fire." So he demanded once more the
secret of the fire.
Then said the Alae, "Go and rub the 10ai"
Now todi means water. So he went and rubbed
the surface of the water, but without success.
"Now thy death is sure Thou shalt mock me
no longer" said he to the bird. But the Alae
replied, at was your own fault did not mean
wai-maoli, (water) but the tree called waimea."
So he tried the wood of the waimea tree, and at
last obtained fire. And as n punishment for
hooking him, he seized the bird aud rubbed its
head on the ignited wood until the raw red flesh
appeared on its forehead; wherefore the bird is
called A-lae, (burning forehead), to this day
Male Wreath.
