m . Floating Debt.

The floating debt of tho city, It is said, has in
creased during Ihe past year to the enormous sum
of eighty thousand dollars, Notwithstanding the
high rate Of tau levied last year. A bill Is now
before the legislature asking the authority of that
body to fund this debt. The Council must col
lect the money by tax and pay nifitis not funded;
OF they may run it through another year al high
rate of interest," and levy the usual amount Of tax.
Or, Ifthey pay It frOmthe taxes collected, they
will create another debt which amounts TO the
same thing.
There are lprge number of property holders
and others who desire to escape the payment of a
higher rate of tax and therefore urge the fund
ing of the eighty thousand dollars floating debt,
and also say that willie the city is laboring with.
out money it hns to work TO a disadvantage as
those who contract for work always charge higher
when there is prospect of waiting for money
The number Of those who desire TO become com
petitors for contracts is curtailed greatly when it
is understood that the city IS out of funds, and
the pay is only TO be got when the council sec
proper 70 go into the market and borrow money.
1t is doubtful whether the Council had the legal
right to contract large debt OF this character
and some persans take the ground that those who
Noteo 10 create the uept are individually hable.
This may possibly be Law in this case. Bot we
can readily suppose cases where it would be neces
sAry for the Council to create debt or allow the
city TO suffer very heavily. Such, for instance.
might be the etse if by some extraordinary occur
renee our water works should give way and the
reservoirs all require to be rebuilt. question
might arise of course where councilmen would be
responsible Otherwise that body might go into
extensive specblations. Like the city of Boston
they might buy up the low grounds and fill them
up. The WOrA, if it proved profitable, would be
hsld Legitimate enough but If it proved un-
profitable, there might arise this question of per-
Sonal liability and succeeding COuneilmen refuse
10 pay debts thus contracted.
The question which deeply concerns the people
H. how and iot what purpose this great floating
debt Of $4,000 was created. After paying such
heavy tax as that Of last year it seems one of the
nyuteFies of the day. What have we TO show

TIueUsURYLAw.


The subioined petition respecting the usufy
laws signed by 3.oSs of the Wholesale business
Rrms of New York city--not the brokers @ stock
gamblers, but the solid business men and msf-
chants has been forwarded to the legislature OF
New York We extract the petition from an able
article in The Finaneier" of the 18th inst, the
whole Of which is well worth attentive peruaal,
but our limited space preventing Che insertion in
full we commend the following to the careful con-
sideration of the legislature of eur own State:
Tie Honorable the Senate and assembly Of the
Sac Of NsW York, AibaHysE
The undsrsirped. merchants Of the city OF New
York desire TO call the attention OF your honora-
bio body to the injurious workings OF the usury
laws of this State.
Our constant experience proves that legsl res
trictons upon the rate of interest are utterly in-
efectual as a protection to borrowers; and, that,
by preventing tree competition among all classes
Of lenders they iniuously restrict loaning opera
tiops. and cause the average rate of interest TO
range higher than it would in the absence oil al
tempted legal regulation.
We regard said laws as being among the most
fruitful causes of the monetary crises Which now
90 Frequently derange mercantile operations; and
further as being opposed in principle to that free
between buyer and seller which reg
ulates values so perfectly in every other depart
ment of business.
whom the usury laws are designed to benefit, we
therefore respectfully pray that oil such enact
ments may be rescinded from our stItute books
except SO far as may be necessary to determine
the rate of interest in contracts wherein no rate is
specified and that hereafter our citizens may Gu
Joy the advantage of free trade in money.

= ocaI Option Law.


The local option law, which has been before the
Supreme Court Of Pennsylvania, for some time
was declared constitutional, by majority of the
Court on Monday.
It is somewhat like the license OF no license law
that was passed by the Legislature of Delaware
about twenty years ago. authorizing the people, al
N election 10 vote whether there should be eeus-
81 issued to sell liquor in this county or not. The
s'ection was carried by the emo license" voters
Bat the matter was carried to the Courts The
question was argued by the late Hon. John NJ
Clayton, and decision was rendered that the law
was unconstitutional
In delivering the opinion Of the majority Of the
Court of Pennsylvania, Judge Aguew said 1T
was an admitted cardinal principle OF governme1t I
that the Legislature which is the agent Of the
pie, cannot delegate its legislative power to any
other person But what did the Legislature In
this instance do? 1t passed a law prohibiting the
sale Of intoxicating liquors in the Twenty-second
ward, and provided penalties for breach of its re-
quirements. Thus 1t was perfect law when II
left the Governors hands the vote of the people
did not make the law, did not give force 10 any
prohibitAtiOn1 did not create penalty, but simply
expressed an opinion upon the law their senti.
ments and wishes in regard to it.
Such vote might be very useful in ascertain
t0g the utility or advisabiliiy of particular Law
and when the legislature simply calls TO its aid
the vote of tie people to ascertain their views. il
acts strictly within its proper sphere"
Chief justice Read and Judge SharsWood dis
Sented from ihe majority. Justice Read read his
opinion, which maintained that the power of ina
king laws was given to the Legislature, and by
express words confined TO that body the corrsc-
tlOn OF haSty and unWise legislation being proyi-
dsd for BY The vetoiDg power, vested in the Gov
ernor and the Legislature could no more dele
gate ita functions than the judiciary. The law
the Chief Juttce thought, had force or vitality
until voted upon. 1t was enacted, not by the Leg
lslatuFe, but BY the votss. This was permitting
portion OF The citizens to inhict upon another
portion unealled for punishment Of unwonted pen
Alnes The population Of the city, already large
and rapidly growing is sufficient 10 show that q
prohibitory law cannot be enforced here FoT
these reasona the act was deemed unconstitution-
al.
II this WeIe constitutional why could not the
Lsghlature devolVe this power upon a minority
II they could delegate II to a msjonty they could
delegate it tp q minority
In referring TO the prohibitory law Of Massa-
ehusetta, The Chief Justice said it was notorious
that liquor cpuld be had in every botsI- restsn-
rant, and oyster saloon in Bosto,I The Law is in
Iaet deaa letter there, the evil being to encour-
ago deeepnon. ialsehOod, and fraud, and to ancus-
tom estlAsns 70 daily violation Of law.
