ANOycI aquarium.

The Geological Gardens At Brus

without parallel in Europe, and
might be introduced advantageous
| " in the Central Park at New York
| 1t is an immense aquarium on no
vel principle. In n large artificial
cave, which contains n number OF
winding passages, is adorned with
stalactitics, and is altogether quite
us interesting Ms if it were natural,
besides being dryer and more, airy
i'm this quiet and cool retreat are
fitted up number Of glass rescr-
voirs, lighted by gaslights above,
and supplied With an unusual varl'
ETY. OF iinny inmates. Standing be-
lore oae of these reservoirs, the
habits and motions of the fish can
be observed with perfect case, The
spectator, fiat the bottom of II rlv-
cr, could not enjoy better advanta'
gcs for ichthyologcal investigations
Pressing his nose against the glass,
carp and bass will calmly seem to
rub their sides against il. Huge
cells will glide sinuously out OF
rocky hooks and hout it with their
tails II sullcn dog fish, hideous to
behold, will stare at it with stolid
Indifference; and stupid fish OF d'
vers kinds will pause before it in
placid imbecilit|. In other com

wave which seem to, be half flower

Latin names. Halt II

the curtdas display, which Brussels
claims rs the finest of the kind in
existence. At Chcrbourg in France,
something Of the sort was recently

The Gamers Hump.

Modern research has determined
a curious circumstance ofan organ,
ic contrivancc in the camel and
lecch, unlike, as they are in struc
ture, function and habits, which
has reference to supplying them
with food from storchouses in their
own bodies, till supplies are attain
able from other sources.
The hump is an immense collec-
tion Of fat stored in reticulated cells
piled one upon another, which is
concentrated food. When fodder
cannot he had, as frequently occurs
on their long caravan travels in the
desert, peculiar set of absorbent
vessels draws upon the magazine
the hnmp-carrying the fat into
circulation till food from without
puts d stop to the draft on the back.
Tine hnmp is very sensibly dimiD-
ishcd at times-evcn. being almost
compl lctcly lcvcled, but that which
was thus Borrowed TO sustain life
temporarily is Immediately replaced
when the stomach is set in motion
again in its accustomed manner.
The medical lcech, or blood-suck
or, low us il is in the organic scale
of life, is as carefully provided for
in regard to the contingencies of
life as the King of the country. As
the blood passes down the gullet OF
the leech, the current divides right
and left 10 enter two latheral tubes,
instead Of entering directly into the
stomach. These canals are folded,
zigzag, backward and forward in
loops as it were, from the head to
the tail. When perfectly filled, the
leech lets 90 its hold. 1t is then
plump and full, with stock of food
on hand that may ordinarily last
from one TO two years, in case it
has no opportunity to take in an
other in that long time.

TO il,e Taxpayers 5r Texas:

Your, Convention, which recently ad'
iourned, among otkcr resolutions adopted
one directing u committee Of seven to- pre-.
pare an address to the people of the State
advising them in what particular manner
to resist through the courts OF the country
the payment OF the school house, anu such
other taxes, as are deemed illegal.
The Convention, by resolution, declared
(haying first taken legal advlce) that the
order for the collection of one per cent. al
vaiorem for the building OF school houses,
ETC., under the fifth section of the act, en-
titled "An act to organize and maintain .
system of public free schools in the state
of Texas laws of 1871, page 81, is Illegal
and void, and the people are advised not
to pay the same, but only lopay one-elghlh
of one per cent, for the above mentioned
purpose, authorized aud levied by the
eigth section OF an act entitled "An act TO
give effect to the several provinions OF the
Constitution concerning taxes Laws
1871, page 43. .4y 49,,
In discharge of the duty devol'ed on us
in the premises, we spy to you:
|. The one per cent. ad Uatorem, authorl.
zed by section 8, of The act aforesaid is IL
leBal anu Nolu, anu e"hh'', ~
the State be enforced, be collected from 'he
taxpayers of the State for three reasons;
l. The law itself is fatally defective, be-
cause it fails to name the properly On
which the one per cent. dd pdtorem Is 10 Dc
levied. ,4..
2. The law is fatally defective in that it
delegates to The, DIRECTORS OF the schoo'
districts the power to levy taxes on the
people-a power WHICH cannot be delegat-
ed ty the Legislature TO said directors.
g.. The said section is supplied by the
eighth section, and, repealed or put IN
allegiance, by section 32 OF the act last
mentioned. 80,
IL. There can be no question but what
there is o, direct conflict between section D
and section Of the two acts. They both
have the same purpose in view, VIZ; 10
raise fund to school houses, etc. section
levies one per cent; section SLEEVES one
eighth of one percent The act of which
section IS q part IS the Junior law. The
two sections cannot be harmonized. Ihe
one or the other must fall.
jill. The junior act is published as nav
ing been approved on the 22d Of April,
1871 the senior law (school law as ap-
proved on the 2ith of April, 1911. inns
publication Of said acts is well establish
ed fraud, deliberately perpetrated by uov-
ernor Davis. The Journals OF the Senate
show that when he approved the, school
law, viz: 2ith Of April, 1871, 1t hsd then
been a law for seven days, and had been
law three days before the tax law was
presented TO him for approval. <The fsols
and circumstances surrounding the sp'
proyal Of these laws show that the Gov
ernoF, without authority and without
right, sought TO change them in their dates,

In addition to the above, each taxpayer
had to pay the commission for assessing
his nd vaiorem tax, which it is supposed
will amount to about three per cent. on his
ad valorem fax.
Your Committee believe, from the best
examination they have been able to give
that subject, that the expenses OF the gov
crnment and the present rate of taxatioa
are excessive. They think the ordinary
annual expenses of the government should
not exceed S605, 900.
They believe that an ad valorem tax of
one third of one per cent. for the State,
and one.sixth Of one per cent. for the coun-
ties, with the present poll ,taxns, and Ii
cense, and occupation taxes, will produce
an amount of revenue ample TO meet all
necessary expenses, besides aifording a
liberal amount for public schools, and still
leave a surplus in the Treasury.
