WAsnlSGToS, Jan. go
Mr.. Scott Of Pennsylvania presented n
petition of the Philadelphia board Of
trade protesting against any reduction of
the appropriation for publication of the
nautical almanac committee on commerce.
also petition of the Philadelphia medical
society asking for increased rank and pay
in the medical corps of the army, and
that corps be opened for promoting
military affairs.
Mr.. Chandler of Michigan presented a
petition for the extension of the money
order system to every postofice in the
United States, and the reduction of charges
in such offices referred to committee on
pOstoiliccs.
Mr.. llamlin presented a memorial of
the governor of the District of Columbia
in response to certain statements made in
a memorial presented a few days ago by
Mr. Thurman, which was read. The
governor says the district officials have
not sought, and did not now seek, to
eyade the fullest investigation into the
affairs of the district.
1t is further stated that the charges had
been disposed of by Tic courts, when it
was well known that many of the charges
had never been before the courts. The
memorial of the governor further referred
to the investigation ordered by the House
this session. That investigation was mere
IL as to the books of the District and no!
as to the officers.
Mr. Edmunds ell what hayc we got
to do with that
Mr. Conkling Of New York said that he
desired to say one word, not touching on
this or any other petition, because it was a
subject in which he felt no sort of interest
only that justice be done No request had
been made to print this memorial. Had
there been he would have objected. On Il
recent occasion when memorial was pre-
scented it was read at length but the Senate
refused to have it printed.
1t had been published in the newspapers
that the Senate refused to receive the petit
ton, which was absurd Among the fun
damcntal rights of the people, beyond tho
reach of the Senate, was the right to pcti
ton. lie deemed it to be his duty to bring
this to the attention of the Senate, hoping
that narrow circle outside might be
made to understand that tho Senate did moi
refuse to receive that position. In truth
and in fact the Senate refused TO print the
petition in accordance with the rule. Tho
petition was presented read and allowed
to take its own course as part of the legis
lation of Congress. The time had yet to
come for him TO occupy the time of the
Senate in making a personal explanation
or denying anything relating to himself

He thought railroads in Vermont were not
as yet able to pay a tax. The principle of
taxation should be benefit to the young
men instead of capitalists.
Mr.. w Harrison brought up the fact
of life insurance and the exemption Of
dividends received from that institution
He also referred with much interest to his
hearers, upon the usury law as now exist
ing, and which he thought might be ma
tcrially improved for the public good
Mr.. 8 b June made some sarcastic re-
marks regarding the railroads and their
high rates Of tariff. He saw no reason
why they should be exempt from taxation.
He also thought that government bonds
should be taxed.
Mr.. f. II. Griswold explained the sys-
ten Of the exemption Of bonds which
was perfectly just, and that it was folly to
talk Of taxing them bonds that were
issued to-day were liable to taxation, while
others would remain exempt until the day
OF redemption. Mr.. Horace Barnes, Mr..
Abijah Ellis Of Ira, Hon. n. r. Sprague,

Meeting of the Brandon Farmers and
Mechanics Club.
BRANDOS. Jan. 30.

BRANDON, Jan. 30.
The annual meeting OF the Farmers and
Mechanics Club OF this village was held
this evening and much interest was mani
fested as is usual. President Spraguc was
in the chair and the following question was
before the meeting for discussion, viz: as
it right or in accordance with Republican
principles to exempt any class of property
from taxdtion?"
Col II II Merritt opened the discussion,
by remarking upon the universal interest
taken in the question, and that the same
was the cause of more litigation and dis
pute than almost any other subject. He
referred briefly to differences which ex.
listed in the laws of taxation in the differ
cnt countries, and then proceeded TO speak
at length as to the system of taxation in
this country and especially in this state.
In the start it was necessary for this peo-
pie to he taxed, to clear away the wilder
ness and establish n nation, and all Of
which was cmnently proper to pay tribute
for their necessary improvements He re
fcrrcd to the question, oft repeated,
whether our railroads. school-houscs and
churches should be taxed; he Brought up the
many varied opinions held on both sides ST
the question and laid tho same open for
those who followed to give their views pro
and con. Taxes, he considered, might be
much less if our officials did not gather up
so much of the money. He thought if tho
state of Vermont should pass a law obliging
railroads to pay tax that many of them
would cease to run, or make larger tariff
sufficient to balance the tax imposed He
| did not think it policy to tax church prop
erty, schOol-district or those who come
here to build up our manufacturing in
terests.
Mr.. 5. c. c. Durkee, who had been APP
pointed to speak, being absent, tho chair
called for volunteers.
Mr.. II. A. Sumner said, among other
things, that if those who mourn and COM
plain on account Of heavy taxes should step
out from under the protection of our
Government and be exposed to the
dangers of our countries they would
soon find how great blessing it was
to be able to pay these taxes for
protection of their lives and property. lie
thought all property should not be taxed
aud instanced the Brandon Graded School
as an institution that should be exempt,
Intelligence and morality were the very
bulwarks of our system of government and
they should be allowed to increase in
power in every possible way 1t was the
same in relation to church property. liz
then spoke of the railroads which were
taxed three per cent had at once RAISED
their tariff six per cent.
Mr.. Horace Ellis agreed with the pre-
ceding speaker in regard to that class o
property that should be exempt. Rea
Estate was considered as the only sounC
