During the present week no less
than ten appeals have been made TO
the court Of common pleas of Dau-
phin county, from accounts for State
taxes settled by the Auditor General
and State Treasurer. The appellants
are the Philadelphia and Reading rail
road company, Philadelphia n d
Reading coal and iron company,
fremont coal company, Preston coal
and Improvement company, and Dar,-
vile, Hazleton and Wilkesbarrc rail
road company, Fast enpsvl,ania
railroad company, Picke. lnr Valley
ruilroa1 company. Colsbrookdale
railroad company, P.eading and Col
nmbia railroad &C many and Perki-
omen railroad cotdpany.
The claims contested are large
amountir g in the first instance alone
to neoiiy $50,00O. In nearly every
case the principal one of the 'speci-
u cations Of objections" is that the
law imposing the tax is in conflict
Sith the first section of the ninth
article OF the new Constitution. As
we predicted would be the case. th,
adoption Of that instrument has in
volved the Commonwealth in expen-
sieve and vevatious litigation with
the heaviest tax paying corporations,
who are ever ready TO embrace any
opportunity to ovade their liability
to the State.
Nearly all of the corporation tax
laws have been rendered Intellectual
by it, and it is imperative upon the
Legislature to so alter or amend
them. that they may, il possible
comply with the requirements of the
new organic law. We understand
that a bill for this purpose has been
already introduced. II so, it should
DO acted upon mt once, rs every
moment Of delay subjects the State
to q loss Of revenue. While upon
this subject it may he as well to cor
rect the impression which seems to
prevail, that there is desire on the
part Of the administration to increase
taxation. Such is not the case.
The Auditor General s report shows
that the revenues Of the Common,
wealth during the last year were over
seven millions Of dollars. Treasurer
Mackey, in his report, estimates that
hereafter, he can, with six millions,
meet the ordinary expenses of the
Government, and redeem one mil
lion Of the public debt.
It will thus be seen that instead OF
increasing taxation it is proposed TO
get along with one million less
revenue than that of last year. The
million of taxes it is proposed to dis
pense with were repealed last year.
There would be no difficulty in raising
the six millions required, were it not
for the fact that several of the taxes
have been practically annulled by adj
verse decisions of the United States
Supreme court and the adoption OF
the new Constitution. The taxes thus
affected are the taxes on loans, ton
rage and coal. The revenues derived
from these sources in 1873 were as
follows:
Tax on Loans, S6SS,332 %
" Tonnage, 3s5.37O 9C
" Coal, 1886, 6,353.91

Il Government OF White Mem for white
from the Baltimore American, 9th.l

from the Baltimore American, 9th.l
II is so long since the Hon. Benjamin O..
Harris, OF st. Mary's county, has favored his
fellow citizens with Il letter, that those OF us
who only knew him through his proclama-
tions imagined that he had ceased to tight
the inevitable. aud had accepted the existing
order Of things as something that it would
be useless to resist. In this, however, we
were mistaken. Mr.. Harris flames out in Il
fierce manifesto in St. Mary'S Beacon Of the
4,h instant. rcpudiating the fourteenth and
fifteenth amendments to the Constitution Of
the United States, and declaring it TO be his
unaltcrable purpose to oppose the recon-
structiou acts while life shall last. He, no
doubt, means what he says.
Mr.. Harris announces himself Il candidate
for Congress in the Fifth District Of Mary
land. and lays down the platform on which
he proposes TO stand. He holds that the last
two amendments to the Constitution are
utterly cold, and have no binding effect on
tie conscience Of the citizen, because they
were adopted by the southern States while
under duresS. Says this courageous states
man When / swear to support the Con-
slitu.ion I swear not to support the four
teenth and fifteenth amendments; and In
every case in which | may come in contact
with them, or any offspring from them, VIE
Their as private citizen or public servant,
shall invariably maintain those views"
Coming down to practical matters, 0lr.
Harris SAYS that, if elected TO Congress, his
first official act would be motion to yacate
all the seats held by cOlored men, to the end
that they may be occupied by aohite men. In
case of any contested seat, he pledges him.
self to vote for that contestant who seems TO
have had q majority of the votes of the aoh'te
electors, without paying the least regard TO
the votes cast by negroes on either SIDE.
Having thus disposed Of all the colored
| members of Congress, he would propose an
| amendment to the Constitution providing
that none but white men shall vote or hold
office within the bounds of the United States,
"thus establishing beyond doubt" says Mr.
Harris, "that this is completely white
mans government, and that white men shall
exclusively rule within our limits"
Mr.. Harris says that, in looking through
| the district there does not occur to him the
name of a single Democrat Of the least po
litical prominence who did not 60 off in the
Greeley stampede. If such Il man can bt
found BY the Congressional Convention, anG
is presented us the Democratic candidate
Mr.. Harris will support him. He gives no
tice, however, that be will tolerate no candi
date who voted for Greeley, and that if any
man who went after strange gods in 1872 is
nominated, be himself will run as an "inde
| pendent Democratic candidate" and viii
appeal for support to all who believe in hi:
motto: "Tbe white race shall exclusively
govern our country"
