Mr. Derlckson yesterday offered resolution
in tho State Board Of Equalization that 10 per
cont OF tho cash valuation be adopted az tho
average rate Of assessment Of property returned
for 1874. and that tho Committee on Corpora
tioua and tho Committee OH Railroads 10 gov
srncd by that prccoutago in making up their ro-
port on tho assessment OF capital stock and rail-
road property. In supporting this resolution,
Mr. Derickaon made aome romarls, print-
cd in full elsewhere, which provo that
lie is thoroughly fami1ar with tho subject
Of state taxation, and that son,o worry romark-
able gel1ymandoring has been done IN the way
Of assesaing property In Illinois during the
preaont year. Tho proportion OF tho nasesa~
ment to tho actual cash value varies al1 the way
from Is to GO per cent in the different counties,
and Nr. Derickson makes tho Insertion that tho
actual cash value of tho horses aud cattle alone
exceeds tho assessed value Of all tho property iu
the State. Mr. Derokson's remarks are worthy
the attention Of Taxpayers gonorally.

Tho Finance Committee of tho Common Oo,,u-

reached after long consultation with

and Doard Of Public Works. Mr. Clos-
bro,,gh, the City Engiuoor, surprised
many Of tloso present by saying TINT
tho supply of wator iu nearly onc-half tho city
is insufficient for the noods OF tho Fire Depart

Few people know how deeply indebted tho
United statoa iB to nussia tor kindly services

whispered that Russian influence prevented the

enabled to say before cur renders trustworthy
information, mover before published, In support
OF tho truth Of this rumor.
Wlon Gov Curtin, on the eve Of his return to
this country, went, In his capacity II Minister to
Russia, to take formal leave OF tho Emperor,
the latter closed tho conversation substantially
in these words: ~ wisA cir. TINT you would,
upon your return. express my hearty thanks to
tho American people for tho reception they have
given my son tue Graud-Duke Alexis" This
It will be remembered, was shortly after den.
Graut had refused to return Alexis call, and tie
latter had left Washington In disgust Gov.
Curtin noticed tho Emperor'8 failure to send
thanks to tue Government a. we'll as the people.
He supposed, however, that 1t was 9 slip
of the tongue until the Empress bade him
farewell In almost precisely the same words.

Tho strength Of popular opinion In Canada as
compared with the samo in the United States is
very clearly manifested by tho overthrow Of the
Provincial Government Of Quebec, which Inns
boen under tho Leadership Of II. Ounlot. Tho
cause which has lol to its overthrow ia only q
land transaction by NJ. Arohambault. ono Of tho
Ministers, to which IL. 0uimet gavo Ills assent,
ind in which, by tho exchange Of private prop
erty for Government property, tho former made
Bo,ne money. In this country, such &
transaction would hardly havo excited COM
ment, but III tho Province of Quebec
it aroused sucll q storm OF indignation
TINT tho whole Ministry was compelled to
resign, although but ono Of its number lad boon
directly connected with the affair. In thiB couu-
try, tho Fort Smelling swiudc was consummated,
and popu1ar indignation LAS boon freely ex-
prcased, but who has resigned? In Canada, a
whole party abdicatoa on account of transaction
which eau bcar no comparison in turptude to
the Tort snoling fraud, and yot every participant
in that job clings resoutoly TO Ills post.

Absolutely no political Significance sttaches to

By none could it be punished without d confessed
