The Hon. DAVID l.. WELLrs hns written short
and sllarp letter to our New York namesako
oil the unfairness and tho illcgality of taxing
tho evidences Of property, such as morgtapcu,
notes, etc., in addition to tho property itself.
Tho taxation Of mortgages has been justified
on the ground Tint tho mortgngo was thu
title to as much Of tho land nortgeget rs tho
money advanced would buy. But tho lansl
is taxed, md tho holder Of the original title
pays tho tax. Lovying on tho mortgage
title, then, ia double taxation Of tho sanle
property. This is grossly unjust. Tho fal-
lacy which undcrlics MI taxation Of evidences
Of indebleness is, tint titles aro property,
that thing is wl,at it represents, that noto
for 800 is 500, Or, in word, that pic
ture Of a mountain is the mountain itself.
A1r. WrLtEs humorously adds that this theory
"aemits of d 1nan having ton acrcs Of wood
land in tho crown Of lis hat, church with
long steeplo in ono cont pocket, and four
story brick block, with possibly mil1-priyi
legc, in tho other"
The Supreme Court of tho United Stntes
has decided That State cannot tax lnnd bo-
yond its Jurisdiction, and that no two States
can tux the samo piece Of land. This decis.
ion makes it possible for any man holding
| mortgage OIL property outside the State in
which lie lives to resist in tho Courts any at.
tempt to tnx that mortgage.
All taxation should bo Oh property. No
now property is creatca by giving note or
mortgage, which are merely written promises
to pay money. II money is taxed, tho note
| representing 1t ought not to be. Il land is
taxed. tho mortgages representing part Of it
| ought not to be. This is tho gist of the
whole thing. Promises and agreements nra
not property. Only property should be
taxed Therefore titles Z. C., evidences, ot
| indebtedness) ought not to DO taxed

Tho text of tho financial bill passed by
the Senate does not remove tho blindness or
intltstiuotncss which seems to ronler the
meaning obscure III certain particulars. The
act clearly removes all tho restrictions upon
the aggregate issue Of notes by the National
Banks, and provides that tho Secretary shall
"retleem" the legal-tonder notes of tho
United States in excess of three hundred
millions Of dollars to the amount of so per
centum Of the inoreasou issue Of Nationnl
Bank notes. This redemption is 10 con.
tinuo until thcro shnll DO outstanding tho
sum Of $500, 100000 of such legal.tenlor
United States notes and no moro." This
seemingly is very plain, but what is
meant by ''rodemption The mcro
tn1sing in Of the groenbacks, and putting
tholn ayay in the vaults Of the Treasury un-
til wanted, ID ono kind Of redemption; to
talso tl!ena in, mud cancel and destroy them,
aul not issuo other; in lieu of t]lo,n, is quite
another form of redemption. When Senator
SHERMAN was ns1sod which form Of rcdemp-
tion WAS intended by tho bill, Ito declined
making M answer. When asked If these
uotcs, when 'redeemed," might not 10 is-
sued again, or others in place Of them, he re-
fused to answer From all this, tho country
is to understand TINT tho redemption Of
| Treasury notes prior 10 1870 is to bo subject
to tho discretion Of the Secretary Of the
Ireasu1y TO roissuo thom whom in his opinion
1t is dosirable or oxpediont.
After January, 1870, tito bill requires that
tho Secretary "shall redeem IN coin the
Treasury notes then outstanding OIL prosonta-
tiop," &o This plan Of redemption Is easily
| understood. But the bill is a little Opaque as
to tho mode l1y which the Secretary is to got

liminary or preparatory redemption Of tho
eighty millions. For both those rolonap4ions

The Constitution Of the State Of New York
provides TINT it may bo amended from tinao
to tin,o, and tho process consists Of the ap-
proval Of IN amendment by the concurrent
action Of the two uouseE Of the Legislature
in two different years, and 1lnal approval
BY tl,e people ut the polls. At tho last Cleo
ton the people ratified number Of amend
ments, including two Of great importance.
Ono Of these providea for tho sale Of all tho
minor State canals, and tho other, copied
substantially from tho Illinois Constitu-
ton, prohibits special legislation. After
tho ratification Of these amendments
by tho people, to tho great dis
may of those whose business was thus
sunlmarily cut oil, 1t was discovered by tile
lnttor TINT those amendments, after they had
pnased the first Legislature, wore changed by
tho second Legislature, and it was contendea
thattheyworo therefore void, because theyhad
not been approved by the Legislatures in tho
precise form in which The people had ratified
tl,om. This point has been submitted to Mr..
CHARLES O'CoNoR, who lns given an elabo-
ratio opinion, in which ho maintains that the
amendments are valid. he declares that it
casanot bs maintained that State Consti4u-
ton which provides means for
its own amendment cannot be al-
tered or varied in my othor manner.
The present Constitution Of Now York
WAS adopted IN entire Disregard Of the man.
ner provided in the Constitution which it SGT
aside. There aro also many other precedents
Of llie character. After An sble review. Of
tho facts, he contends that the action Of tho
Legislature in 1874, submitting tho amond-
1nonts to the people and tho ratification Of the
amendments by tho people, arc, taken alone,
sufficient to give validity to the amendments.
He insists tint, Whenever they SEQ fit, the
people Of State can alter their written Con-
stitution, and this right cannot bo denied or
abridged by anything contained in the Con-
stitution itself.
This is clearly tile true doctrine. The peo-
pie acting ut the polls layo tho samo power
to amend their Constitution as they had to
ordaiu tho Constitution originally.
