Especial telegram to the Dspatch.J
WASHINGTON, September l6.-The District
Legislature called on the Governor to-day
and INDUCED in little speech-making of a
gratulatory, and on the part of one or
two gentlemen rather serious, order. The
President of the Council declared that if the
new Governor would relieve the city from
its financial embarrassmcnts and establish its
credit upon Il firm basis it would be matter
of congratulation everywhere; and the Gov
ernor, in replying, thought proper to disa-
gree with this functionary, and said he be-
ieycd the city was better off financially than
most other American cities Of its size. Hc
also thought that the General Government
would recognize the justice of helping this
District to free itself from the debts that are
over it,
Il Iappcars very evident that Congress 1T
the next session will have ample opportu'
tunity to discuss the demands and ncccssi-
ties of the nations capital. IIMoS.

Worcester, March 81.
Mr.. EDITOR Section 81 chapter "a of
the General Statutes reads;
g The grand list to be completed on the
fifteen day of May, for the assessment of
town and highway taxes, shall be the list on
which all school district and village taxes
voted on the first day of March, or at any
time thereafter whiting one year, shall be
assessed"
Said section was amended at the last session
OF the Legislature by striking out the word
March, and substituting the word April.
Now the question is, on phat last an taxes
voted at the last annual school meeting, to
be made. Do taxes voted in March 1873
come under the old or new law.
This may be perfectly plain to the law
makers but find some others do not under
stand how it should be. INQUIRER.
No. of the Public Acts of 1872, which
makes the change referred to, went into
effect on the 1st day of January. 1t would
thus seem plain that taxes voted in March of
this year will have to be assessed on the
Grand List of May, 1872. That is how it is,
but why 1t should be 50 we don't know, and
refer Inquirer to Senator l.. H. Kellogg. of
Benson, Rutland County, who introduced
the bill making the change

We admit the provocation was or eat, but
does it justify a resort to violence and person
al chastisement? We think not. The free
dom of the press, unless il. degenerates into
unbridled and wanton license, must be re-
spected. The laws are made to protect
all members of society, to restrain each
from injuring the other, and to punish
every man for his offences against the
rights of his neighbors, or of the commu-
nifty at large. 1t may safely be trusted
to do these things all in good time. Is it
not plain, then, that the individual who takes
judgment and the execution thereof into his
own hands, commits grave ofense not alone

WafCIman. What of the Nieht ?

Mr.. EDITOR; In the course of my reading
of late | have discovered some things which
| do not understand, and as editors are sup
posed TO know some things which others do
not, appeal to you to help me out of my
dilemma.
Ii. appears that convention has recently
been held, the call for which was signed by
a long array of Honorables and Doctors of
Divinity, enc the object Of which waste ask
Congress to SO alter the Constitution OF the
United States as TO make Is distinctly recog-
nize Almighty God as the supreme source OF
government; Jesus Christ as the supreme
law-giver; and the Bible as the supreme
fountain of legislation. Perhaps | do not
quote tt e exact words, but | think 1 have
the idea.
In that convention Dr. Jonathan Edwards
is reported as saying that the earth would
soon become a hell, if the constitution was
not soon so amended. Mr. Holmes is report.
ed to have said that New York would vet see
her streets flow with blond. Mr.. Milligan is
reported as saying that the constitution
drafted in the May Flower in 1920 was in
'avor of Protestant Christianity, and he
thought no one opposed thereto had any
right in this country. 1t is also reported
that DR.. Treat, Of Vineland. attempted to
speak in.-opposition to these sentiments, but
was met with cries of g Put him out" " Sit
down, g Shut up" ETC., from all quarters
of the room.
Now does all this mean that when these
Christian brothers get their God, their Christ
| and their Bible, into the constitution, that
none but members of the Protestant Church
are to enjoy any rights, political or civil, in
America ? If not, what does it mean?
learn from the NeD York Tribune that
the United States Evangelical Society sen,
letters to their kindred societies in every
part of the world to meet them. through
