Match Tax In Evance.

One Of NJ. Thiers' financial failures has been
the tax on matches. In 1871 a tax of four
centimes on the hundred wooden matches, and
fiye ceatimes the fifty on wax matches, It was
caic1Iated, cal would produce "a. .00O, 900 annually
such rate that the duty only yielded at the
rate OF $500 900 year, while the price Of
matches rose enormously. Tho government
them resolved to make the production Of
matches monopoly, and sell tito the highest
bidder, and two Marseilles houses already en-
gagged in the manufacture have bought the
the privlledge for %. 800 900 q year; but the
price OF matches Is fixed at about forty cents
the four thousand matches. The mon0polists
also pay the government duty Of nine cen
times tne one thousand on all matches expor
iosty in its way, as It is r. return % to the oo Ole
system OF farming out tie revenue, which
was supposed to be forever banished from tn,
economy Of civilized modern states.

THE Yarmouth -Pinchback imbrOglio was
before the Supreme Court on Thursday, and
after hearing of argument by able counsel
ON both sides the court held their decision
sub curia until Monday night. The country
will wal with deep interest for its decision,
for its decision will probably be final.
In the meantime the Executive has already
recognized Pinchback as the acting" GOver-
nor of Louisiana. The insertion Of this
world "actng" evidently shows that Grant
does not mean to commit himself entirely to
the Pinchback faction. And should the Su-
preme Court decide in favor of the Yarmouth
flank. then the President may lecsgnizc him
as GOVERNOR without the acting" and say
that Pinchback was only recognized provi-
isonally to await the dicision of the Supreme
Court and to keep the peace in the inte-
rim.
The question before the court was. as We
said in former article. preliminary one:
and is raised by the motion Of the counsel OF
Pinchback to dismiss the case. 1t was held
| by the court that this motion could not be
heard at that stage Of the case: The real
question il, however, the jurisdiction OF the
court Ifthe court decides against Yarmouth

The Rev. Father O'Connel Of Norwich Che

present for priest The other night, for he found
upon the doorstep Of his parsonage basket. and
in the basket was female baby. aged about six
weeks. and with the baby was bottle Of f"sooth-
inc syrup" There was also note requesting
ths reverend Father 10 baptize the child By the
name of Mary. which We suppose, like good
vail was accommodated at the parsonage during
the night. and, but for the soothing syrup, >
sweet time Father O'Connell would have had

A NEW QUEsTIoN.-The death OF Horace
Greeley. after the presidential election at which
he was candidate, and before the result has
been proclaimed by the Elcctora! College. is
an event, ne believe, without parallel in the
history Of the country. Tie question now
arises, for whom shall the votes be east OF
those States that went for Greeley and Brown !,
1t is question that seems 10 puzzle the Cree
ley and Brown electors themselves, aud has
attracted the attention of the Democratic and
Liberal Republican National Committees The
leading journals of the country al! seem 70
differ as to what course should be pursued
The Cincinnati Commercial thinks il would BE-
graceful acquiescence in the decision Of The
majority should the vote be cast for Grant;
while the Enquirer and several other papers
insist that the electors have no discretion in
the matter, but simple duty to perform by
casting their votes for Greeley and Brown
The New York Tribune. on the other hand.
takes the position that in accordance with the
spirit o! the Constitution, the electors should
vote for Gratz Brown. The New York World.
however, says that the electoral vote intended
for Greeley cannot be cast for any other per-
son, but should be cas-: for blank. The CUES
ton is Of no Importance, other than as const-
tuting precedent. as it cannot possibly affect
the result, no matter how the vote is cast; but
as we know of no law prohibiting a person
voting for dead man; and as the electors
have plain duty to perform, We don't see
how they can avoid voting for Greeley, wheth-
er dead or alive
