Mr. Webster wrote in this old.lashioncd

"The President is of opinion that it is q
great abuse 10 bring the patronage Of the
General Government into conflict with
the freedom Of elections, and that this
abuse ought to be corrected wherever 1t
may have been permitted TO exist, and to
Ue prevented for the future.
HE therefore directs that information
be given to oil officers and agents in your
department OF public service, that partisan

A STRENUOUS effort will be made soon

French spollation claims, but with doubts
Of its success. The strong ground for tho
payment Of these claims Is founded on the
fact that the government Of the United

by q virtual abandonment Of valid claims
against that government, In consideration
Of the fact that France would surrender

Lars Larson, q young man 25 years old,
the other Charles lsaOcs, a boy OF 10,

the Taxing OF behooi property
Below is the opinion of Geo. CAN'T
on the question raised in the General
Council on collectinga tax levied on the
st. Bridset's Parish School.house, and
on the power Of the city to remit the tar
already levied.
MENFnls, August Q, 1873.
In all the States Of the Union chart
table and educational institutions are
tostered by the active sympathies and
support OF Government. IL is part OF
wise public policy TO do so.
The prosperity Of a people, and the
| perpetuity Of free institutions, depend
in large measure on the general diifu-
sion OF learning.
A doubt has been raised whether the
Legislature had power to authorize the
surrender or release Of taxes for special
objects which we're deemed worthy Of
exemption under the constitution Of
1884 This doubt has been put to rest
by the constitution OF 1870, which pro-
vides that the Legislature may exempt
such property as is held and used for
purposes purely religious, charitable,
scientific, literary or educational. "
Con. Art. 2, Sec. 2S.
In order TO carry into effect this pro-
vision Of the constitution, the Legisla-
ture has provided that property held
and used for proposes purely religious,
charitable, scientific, literary or educa-
tional, shall be exempt Section |, act
approved June 9th, 1870, Public Acts,
psge &C. Substantially the same is re-
enacted by act approved March 18th,
1873. See Public Acts 1873, page l6S,
Section 2, subsection and 3. The last
named act provides that the property so
exempt shall not exceed in value $780,
600. Shall st. Bridget's parish school
be denied the benefits OF these proVis.
ions2 1t is public school, Its prop.
erty does not exceed $2500 in value II
numbers nearly three hundred pupils;
many of them are charity scholars be-
ing unable to pay. The property is used
exclusively for educational purposes.
The lease for four years makes the lessee
the owner of the property for that time.
This lease also expressly provides that
he is TO pay all the taxes assessed on it.
The uses to which the property is put
by the owner (the lesseej being exclu-
sively for education, and this being done
in entire good faith, how can such owner
be justly or legally denied the benefit Of
those exemptions, which the law for wise
reasons of public policy has made in
favor Of all who are similarly occupied2
| am not able to perceive any distinction
in law or justice which would work his
exclusion
My attention has been invited to the
decision of the Supreme Court in Fe-
male Institute vs.. the City of Memphis,
rendered at last term; but do not deem
it necessary to extend this opinion by
comments on that case, as it is on facts
wholly dissimilar, and therefore not
authority in this case.
