now DICK sCHELL FAILED WITH JOHNSON
AND SUCCEEDED WITH GRANT.
From the Cincinnati COMMERCIAL

From the Cincinnati Commercially
1t appears that Vanderbilts partner in
speculation, the Hon. Dick Schell, has
been playing his part in furnishing rea-
sons for Pres ident Grants consideration
why the central railroad should not be
compelled to pay its tax to the govern
ment. 1t is possible that Schell did not
offer to furnish funds for the next presi-
Dental campaign in case the decision were
favorable to the railroad. His own often
repeated account of his failure when he
attempted politico-Hnancial trasnaction
with Andy johnson, ought to have pre-
vented him from making any such offer.
Four years ago, or about impeachment
times, money was very badly needed by
the johnson party in Washington for po-
litical purposes. 1t was of the utmost i'm
portance to johnson himself that the
means should be procured for carrying on
certain elections, and for other political
objects. At this juncture Schell turned
up in Washington and procured an inter-
view with Andy.
ave heard, Mr.. President, that money
was needed to help the interest Of our
party ?"
"Yes," said Andy, "very much needed (;
and have heard that you were willing to
raise some of it?'
"Yes," was the reply, perfectly willing
glad to do it. But now, Mr.. President
let's talk business. There's forty or fifty
millions Of government gold lying in the
treasury which ought to be sold in the
New. York market; and ifyou'll give me an
order on Secretary McCulloch, telling him
to give me the selling Of ten or twelve mil
lions of that gold, III furnish all tho money
that's needed for the elections"
"Well, sir |" exclaimed johnson, as he
rose from his chair, swelling up to twice
his natural proportions and towering
up to double his ordinary height. "Well,
sir" exclaimed he with wrath on his face
determination in his voice, and manner
which made his interocutor suppose he
would be knocked down on the spot, "no
such corrupt transaction can be carried
on with me, and no such presidential order
shall ever be issued elections or no elec-
tons, political success or political perdi-
ton Good day, sir |"
And one Of tho parties instantly disap-
peared from tho white house, at more
rapid pace than he had entered it, and
feeling considerably less important.
This would be good anecdoto for sec
rotary Boutwell, to tell president Gran
when he gots back TO Washington.

D1scoUST on STATE TAxEs-It was an in
genious mind that devised that clause in the
statutes, which RENTS four per cent. Of the
amount paid i'm to allsuoh as settle their State
tax bills before the first Of February. Very
many constables deduct four per cent. from the
amount assessed, but find when they come to
settle with the State Treasurer, thst ;hst iunc-
tionsry insists most rigidly or atriot constTuc-
ton Of the law. This Is all right on his psrt,
if the Law vas rot Of his drafting. But we say
that whoever inserted this provision, made big
blundsr irbe f5-esaw the trouble AID vezation
and loss that would ensue from it, then HuHder
is too mild word to use in the case. Many IN
honest constable inds himself from ten to sixty
dollars out Of pocket after adjusting bis &C
counts, Just because Of tae unfortunate wording
Of the statute. The exsc; amount to be paid IN
can be found only by an inconveuieut and some
shat lengthy aTithmetical operation and We
affirm Whist we know, when We say that not a
few collectors are unsble to compute the reduced
tax And even if they were all competent. it is
deal OF labor to adjust (say) seyenty-fye
thousand taz-bills according 10 fis lar. We
sincerely wish that this labor were divided be
tween the man who drew the bill and the con-
mittee which reported it. Iffcur per cent On
the gross amount levied Is toe large a deduction,
then make it three per cent. The exact amount
saved to the State by this catch in the law, is one
six hundred and fitch of the whole and Of
this the larger moiety, we opiue, cones cut Of
the pockets Of the c5nsiables. The difference 10
this city, between the reduced tx, as 1t is, and
the tax as !; should be, Is aboa: ffty-siz dollars
