Mr.. SECRETARY RoBEsoN, the Jolly
chief of the Navy Department, has
appointed gentleman who rejoices il
the name of Elijah W. Hagar to a
chaplaincy in the United States Navy.
Mr.. Hagar is now the Rector of st.
Georges Episcopal Church in Utica,
New York, and will remain there until
ordered to report for duty. We are
prepared to think well # any gentleman
who is so fortunate as to bear the scriptu-
raj name of Hagar in addition to that OF
Elijah, and We are not, therefore, sur
prised to learn that he is a clergyman
of responsibility. But admitting all
this, the appointment is one that
ought not to have been made, for Mr..
Hagar, it is said. is a gray-haired
man, fifty years old, OF thereabouts ;
and gray hairs disqualify a man for
appointment to chaplaincy in the
United States Navy. The Navy
Regulations of 18th April, 1865, con-
tain the following
"Sec. 227-An applicant for the
Office of chaplain must be not less than
twenty-one, nor more than thirtY-five
years of age"
As soon as Mr.. Hagar shall be sixty
two years old he will be put on the
retired list, with So, 100 as his pay for
life, without having served his country
long enough to entitle him to so hand
some a support. But this is a small
matter to the good-natured Secretary,
who doubtless thinks it an amiabie
weakness to provide for his superan-
nuated friends at the expense of the
people, even though it be in violation
Of law. That man must indeed have
a small soul who would not do friend
q favor if he could do it without cost
to himself.

THE NEW YORK HERALD AND


The friendly relations existing Of
late between the New York Hcrald
and the Captain General Of Cuba, seem
about to be disturbed. Indeed, the
Captain General has gone SO far as to
arrest Mr.. C'Kelly, the especial Com
missioner of the Hcrazd," and a
"eourt of inquiry" has been appointed
to examine into the charge of that he
had upon his person papers OF the
instruction"
Ii Mr.. OKelly were simple citizen
of the United States, we should feel
appreLclsive that his life was in great
danger, or, at best, that he would
undergo a long imprisonment. As it
is, however, Lr. O'Nclly occupies a
stronger position. He is especial
Commissioner Of the New York
Uerola," and that mighty power has
already laid down It's ;l.imatun in the
shape Of 4 double-leaded editorial of a
column and half III length. The
Ucrald distinctly and formally says to
the Captain-General: "And here it is
proper TO say that VIC and the civilized
world VIII hold him responsible for
the fate of Nj. O'kelly." And then
not satisfied with that declaration,
again formally says to him: "We
shall hold, and this country Will hold,
both General CebeIIos and the Spanish
government responsible for the fate o.
our Commissioner.
If anything can save NJ. O'Kelly, ii
viii be the power Of tie Herald. a
paper that requires one hundred and
twenty columns Of printed matter fol
a single days issue, and that receives
thirty-fve thousand dollars in cash fol
the advertisements il single issue, is
not q power to be despised. We
rather think, however, hat the p'lblie
is getting somcwlat tired Of The
troubles Of Ec..a2a Commissioners il

TAXATION IN LOUISIANA.
a WofuI Ficture-Twen Millions
to be Collected.

The New Orleans Picayune, in an
article upon the question of paving
taxes to the Kellogg usurpation, has
the following
Are the taxpayers of this city, who
are in any doubt whether they will
combine with their fellow-citizens to
resist the attempts, by the most outra-
geous and shameful modes ever pro-
posed i'll n country processing to be
free and Republican, upon orr people
by usurping government, aware of
the amount of taxes which it is pro-
posed to collect this year.? Many of
these flatter themselves with the idea
that they Will get off with a tax of five
per cent. Stasa and city. This ia a
Srievous error. Besides the regular
State and city tax for the past wear.
the act of the bayonet Legislature to
enforce the collection of taxes. which
our readers will find in our columns
to-day, gives to the State officers the
same power and authority to collect all
antecedent unpaid taxes for the years
preceding the last as are conferred in
regard to the taxes of last. wear. The
taxes viii amount for the State we
learn, to S7,O00,OOO, which, added to
the $1,000, 900 collectable for 1872, will
swell the grand total to say S12. OoO.-
900. which can be collected by the
same processes provided in the infa-
nous enforcement act passed by the
Kellogg Legislature. Add to this the
city taxes ;1ncollected, and we have the
enormous sum, say of $40, 100000 or
over twenty per cent. of the assessed
value of the property of this city.
which is TO be collected according TO
kellogg's proclamation by civil or
criminal process ont of the people. 1t
would be well for those timid or over
prudent people who now propose to
pay their taxes for last year, to bear in
mind the effect of their submission to
such demands which is simply an &C
4ulescence in the. spoliation and con-
fiscaticn of the property of this peo-
pie for the emolument of jObbers, adj

as o private gentleman, that DR.. Whit
aker was best known.
He died at the old homestead and
was buried with his forefathers in their
old grave yard few steps only from
the house in which lie was born. He
died as he had lived, good and true
Christian. His last acts were for the
relief Of the poor and sick of his neigh
borhood. Indeed, the great exposure
he underwent in nursing his poorneigh-
bors, is thought to have brought on
the violent congestion of which he
died. A good man has gone down to
the grave, full of years loved and
honored by all who knew him.

MR. PLIMSOLL AND TIE SIEEE'
OWNERS.

The loss of the atlantic, and the great
destruction of life accompanying it,
coming 80 quickly in the wake OF that
of the Northfcet, painfully enforccs
and illustrates the necessity of that
reform Mr.. PLIMsoLL of the British
Parliament is so earnestly and jealous
~ laboring for It will be remem-
bered that Mr.. PLI2IsoLL has recently
printed. published and circulated, at
his own expense, a book designed to
call the attention of the British public
to the criminal negligence of ship
owners In sending to sea overloaded
up by declaring from his seat in Par
6ament that his sole purpose in seek
ing the place he then occupied was to
obtain an official enquiry into the
great grievance he was seeking to
remedy.
In his book and in his public
speeches, Mr.. PL1MsoLL has not hest
tated to fortify his demand for reform
by giving the names of owners who
had sent vessels to sea in criminal
disregard of human life. Some of
these men were prominent on account
Of wealth, and social and political
station but the knowledge of the fact
did not prevent Mr.. PLrMsoLI from
srrAigning them before the bar..of pub
Lilo opinion, in such manner as truth
and justice required. In consequence
of this he is threatened with numer-
Gus libel suits. But for attempts Iat
intimidation of this sort, he is well
prepared, being gentleman Of ample
means; and in addition thereto, aceor-
ding to the English papers, he is con-
stantly receiving letters proffering
such pecuniary assistance as may be
necessary to enable him to carry on
the fight boldly and successfully.
There would be little need for other
proof TO save Mr.. PLIMsoL1 harmless
before an English or before an Ameri-
osa jury upon charge Of ibeling ship
owners, than the simple recital of the
manner in which the iIl-fated Atza,stac
was wrecked on the rocks at Mars
Head, and the causes that Jed thereto.

THE CONNECTICUT ELECTION.

Our readers will see by thedispatch-
es contained in our telegraphic col
umns, that the Democratic party made
heavy gains in the election held il Con-
necticut on Monday. Last year Gov
ernor Jewell, the present Radical in
cumbent, was elected by majority OF
twentY-eightvotes over all competitors.
The Legislature stood, in the Senate,
fifteen Radicals to six Democrats, and
in the House one hundred and twenty
four Radicals t. one hundred and
eleven Democrats. At the last Congress
sional election three of the four Rep
resentatives elected were Radicals. Ii
the results indicated by our dispatches
truly represent the feeling of the poo
pie at the North, there would seem to
be little need for either new party or
a new name. We congratulate our
brethren in Connecticut on their glori-
GUS victory.
