THE GENERAL ASSESSMENT LAw,-THe
Amerscan's Annapolis correspondent says:
"The discrepancies of the new assess
ment law still remain the subject of COM
ment, and many are of the opinion that an
extra session will be called in order that a
proper remedy may be provided. Since the
adjournment many of the members have
been called upon to fill other political offices,
and hence new elections to fill their vacan-
cies would be necessitated in the event of
an extra session, and a new Speaker of the
House would have to be chosen, as Mr..
Hines is now the commander in chief of
the oyster navy.
That the act is contradictory and badly
deficient, no one can deny, as the short
comment in last Fridays american (repub-
lished in The Wing last Saturday pointed
out, and no ordinary means can rectify it.;
and any moment now may witness the suing
out of an injunction to restrain the asses
sors from valuing the property exempted
from taxation under the leading section of
the act. There are other sections of the
act that provide for the assessment of spe-
citic property, but there is nothing either
in point of fact or by implication in them
that binds that property in the face of the
definite relief granted by the first section
to taxation. The distinction rests between
the meaning of taxation and assess
ment.'"

Baltimore Kallroad has purchased the
Junction and Break water Railroad, extend
ing from Lewes, on the Delaware bay, to
Harrington, on the Delaware Railroad.
This road was TO be portion of the Balti-
more, Chesapeake and Delaware Bay Rail
road, branch railroad from Harrington
to Queenstown, in Queen Anne's county,
completing the road between the two bays.
The p, w & B. r. r. already controls the
Delaware Railroad, and by this purchase
now gains control of the other route also.
General Custer reports from Fort Lin
coin, Dakota, that on the morning of
April 23rd, band of Indians attacked
some herders near the fort and drove off
eighty mules. Six cavalry companies pur.
sued the Indians and recaptured all the
stolen mules, besides seizing part of the
Indians stock. One of the savages was
wounded. The commanding officer at
Fort Fetterman, Dakota, reports that two
Sioux fired into the camp of his scouts on
the hight of the Goth ult. Captain Carle-
ton, of the Tenth Cavalry, commanding at
Camp Augur, Texas, states that Indians
from the Reservation fired into his camp
on the night of April 9Th.
"A boy, sixteen years of age, committed
suicide in Boltimore, by taking arsenic.
He had quarreled with another boy on the
day previous, in the Hanover Market, and
had struck his antagonist on the head with
mallet, producing slight concussion of
the brain. He was arrested and was held
to bail to answer the charge of assault.
After he had been released he got an idea
into his head that he would have to 90 to
the pententiary, and to save himself from
the apprehended disgrace, he purchased
twenty-five cents worth of arsenic and
swallowed it at single dose, which pro-
duced death in short time.
Eleven of the General Appropriation
bills have been acted upon by the House

passed the Senate, and have been returned

STATE TEMPERANCE ALLIANCE.

The State Temperance Alliance held its
first annual meeting in Baltimore on We'd
nesday last. The attendance was large,
but not quite equal to expectation, The
American says. The following is the SUBJ
stance of the resolutions passed:
1st. That the action of the Legislature
of Maryland, in defying the will of the peo-
pie, is an added incenti to unremitted
labor.
I'd. That we declare war upon the rum
interest in which no quarter shall be asked
Or given.
Sd. That to success the help of women is
absolutely essential.
4th. That we will prepare a special
pledge for clergymen, special pledge for
women, special pledge for voters, a special
pledge for property owners, special pledge
for physicians, and a general pledge to total
abstinence, each of these prescribing par
ticular modes of action that are pledged to
be adopted.
9th. That we will secure eight temper
ance prayer meetings weekly, in eight Sec
tions of the city.
9th. That we will get up handsome
ornamented family pledge to be displayed
in parlors.
7th. That the Church is called by God to
aid in the temperance work.
Sth. That the little visible support given
by the clergy of Baltimore to the temper
ance cause is deplorable.
9th. That ministers of the Gospel are
earnestly urged to come to the front as
leaders IN the temperance movement.
10th. That the ministers of this city are
urged to organize temperance pulpit
movement, and require each clergyman to
preach one temperance sermon every four
weeks.
11th. That ministers elsewhere be urged
to carry out similar movement.
18th. That Boffin's rooms are desirable,
and capitalists should establish them.
BY the report given in the city papers
the session seems to have been somewhat
stormy. Mr. William Scotch, of North
East, was appointed Vice President of the
Alliance for this county.

AN EsCoRT.-It is rumored that num-
ber of our highly respectable and moral
young gentlemen contemplate establishing
in Annapolis branch of the Association
recently organized in the West, whose
object it is to furnish young ladies who
have no regular beau an escort to church,
concerts, lectures, and other places of
amusement. All members have to undergo
a rigid examination as to character, etc,
before they are admitted and they obligate
themselves to obey all the orders of the
Executive Committee. Any lady wishing
an escort has only to apply to the Presi-
dent of the Association, naming the even
ing an escort is wanted, and young man
is detailed for the purpose. AS soon as
young man becomes engaged in marriage
he must withdraw from the Association.
The Roman Catholics of this State are
making preparations for a religious pill
grimage to certain remarkable spring
or fountain near White Marsh, Prince
Georges county, where a special service is
to be held on Ascension Day, the 14th
instant. 1t is expected that many persons
will join the pilgrimage from this city.-ib

REPORT ON THE SANBORN FRAUDS.

The Committee of Ways and Means
have submitted to the House of Repre-
sentatives their report upon the investiga-
tion of the SanboIn contracts. The re-
port gives statement of the law by au-
thority of which the Sanborn contract was
made. and of the manner in which the law
was reversed by orders from the Treasury
Department, commanding the officers of
the Government to assist Sanbern. The
committee find distinct violation of the
orders of the Treasury Department requir-
ing persons applying for contracts to set
forth in a written statement, under oath,
the amount and character of the claims to
be recovered, and the name of the person
withholding it. In this connection the
committee cite the insertion of all the rail-
roads in Appleton's Railaoay GUIDE in a con-
tract. The committee find that officers in
the pay of the Internal Revenue Bureau
were placed at the disposal of Sanborn,
and that they collected most of the amounts
placed to his credit. They find that the
Secretary and Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury, without authority of law, gave
letters to Sanborn's agents, calling upon
officers of the Government to aid and as
sist them, and that two of these agents
were still further armed with power by the
secret, service detective commissions. In
the opinion of the committee, very large
per centage, if not all, of the $437, 900 COL
lected by Sanborn were not proper sub
ject of contract under the law. The COM
mittee find one instance where collusion
between Sanborn and some one in the
Treasury Department is evident, being in
regard to a payment by the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Railroad CON-
pany, information concerning which could
have been furnished only by the Depart
ment. The committee find that whereas
the law prescribes that the persons con-
tracing shall assist the proper officers of
the Government, the misapplication of
power virtually displaces them by the crea-
tion of a new bureau for the collection of
taxes at cost of fifty per cent. The COM
mittee were unable to find where the re-
sponsiblity of the loose administration of
the law rested, finding from the testimony
of the Secretary, the Assistant Secretary
of the Treasury and the Solicitor of the
Treasury that with each the contracts were
acted upon by official routine; they find
that the testimony of these officials was
contradictory, and look with serious appre-
hension upon their efforts to transfer the
responsibility each from himself to the
other, and that they deserve severe con-
demnation for the manner in which they
permitted the law to be administered,
though the testimony does not prove that
they acted from corrupt motives. In con-
clusion, they recommend repeal of the law.

account of Senate amendments. The leg
islative bill, having passed the House, is
now before the Senate. The Indian bill is
! pending in the House. The Military Acad-
emy, Deficiency, Post office and Diplo-
matte Appropriation bills have been re-
ported to the House, but not acted upon.
The Pension, River and Harbor and Sun

Two additional crevasses opened in
the Mississippi levees on Saturday night,
one short distance below Prentice Miss,
and the other at Glencoe, sixty miles be-
low. Another break was expected
at Prides. The private levee at Wal
nut Bend, Arkansas. is broken, and the
Falls, Farquharson and other rich planta-
tions are inundated. 100 acres of the two
plantations named are planted in cotton.
A large volume of water pours through
the crevasse at Catfish Point, which is
now $50 yards wide. Appeals for aid from
the flooded country south of Napoleon,
Ark, have come to Memphis, and relief
committee in the latter place is busy filling
orders for supplies. New Orleans dis
patches state that there is no abatement in
the Louisiana floods, and reports of misery
and destitution are still coming in from all
quarters.
The Arkansas question was considered
in the Cabinet session at Washington
Tuesday, but no decision was announced.
The Attorney General stated that the
attorneys for Brooks had asked day or
two for the completion of their argument.
A Little Rock special to the st. Louis
Democrat says that Saint Johns College,
the Baxter headquarters, was searched on
Monday morning, by regular troops acting
as police, when an unfinished report of the
arrest of the Supreme Court Judges, ad-
dressed to Baxter, was found upon table
where it had been left " in the haste Incl
dent to departure" United States troops
were formed in line in the streets of Little
Rock three times during Monday night, to
prevent an advance of Baxters forces.
Brooks was reinforced last night by COL
ored company. Chief Justice Mcclure
had writ of habeas corpus served on the
Baxterite Generals, Churchill and Blocker,
yesterday, for the release of Judges Searle
and Bennett. The officers replied that
martial law was established in Pulaski
county, and they recognized no orders
which did not come from their superiors.

MAY DAYS DAWNING.

A correspondent sends us the following
seasonable verses, which are quite pretty
and appropriate to the season. We sup
pose they are original. At all events they
will answer as handsome tribute to the
season and we adopt them in lieu of our
weekly notice of the advance of the flower
crowned nymph, Flora, though there is
rather too much of old ocean in them for
the latitude of Elkton.
Awake ye sluggards the day is dawning
Delicious and soft in its garb of gray;
Awake It's Mays first pensive morning,
Awake it's the first of balmy May.
Soft and dreamy the suns first beaming,
Turning the sea into molten gold,
Mounting higher in splendor cleaning,
Lighting the woodlands dark and cold.
Incense sweet from orchard blooming
Blends with the breeze from ripping
And the roar of the breakers distant boom
ing
Comes with a sound subdued to me.
Birds with plumage bright and glossy
Fly through the greenwoods' mystic
depth,
And sing by deep dells green and messy
Where the modest violet slept.
Mystical voices in chorus blending
Greet the May morn fresh and fair;
Roses their sweetest fragrance sending
Out on the early morning air.
May day is dawning in misty splendor,
Gold and purple the eastern sky
Shedding a radiance soft and tender
Where the willows droop and sigh.

A New CURRENCY BILL.-The Senate
Finance Committee has substantially agreed
to allow the Chairman, Senator Sherman,
to report a substitute for the House Cur
rency bill, each member of the Committee
at the same time reserving the right to
offer amendments to it. The bill will pro-
vide for free banking, rele ase the reserves
on circulation, except per cent, which is
to be deposited in the Treasury, and require
reserves on deposits to be kept by each
bank in its own vaults. In these particu-
lars the Committees bill will not differ
much from the House bill. To prepare for
specie payments the proposed bill will re-
quire the retirement of greenbacks equal
in amount to so per cent of the new Nation
al bank currency issued, the retirement to
begin at once and continue until the volume
of the greenback currency is reduced to
$500, 600, 900.
The redemption section of the bill is SUBJ
stantially that so often advanced by Senator
Sherman. 1t contemplates the redemp-
tion of greenbacks after January 1, 1877,
whenever presented in sums of 81 900, or
any multiple thereof, in gold, or five per
cent gold bonds, at the option of the Gov
ernment; the greenbacks thus redeemed to
be used by the Secretary of the Treasury
as any others in the Treasury.
The intlationists on the Committee are
understood to favor postponing the retire.
ment of greenbacks until the National
bank circulation reaches 1882. 100000.
