MINISTER SCHENCK.

The New York Nation publishes the
following criticism of General Schenck,
Grants Minister at the Court of St.
James, and author of a treatise on the
game of draw-poker. 1t was written
by w. j. Stillman, the distinguished
author, artist and diplomatist:
have lived abroad under many
regimes, and often had cause to blush
for the official representative OF my
country for drunkenness. meanness,
proigacy, ignorance, lncapaclty, venal-
ity; but until lived under the protec-
ting presence of General Schenck l
have never had to deprecate. as an
American, connection with swlndling.
doubt if there is another civilized
Government, the meanest under the
sun, that would dare to outrage the
self-respect of it's respectable citizens
as to compel them, year after year, to
endure the humiliation of seeing their
representative protected by his official
capacity from criminal suit. and
hearing the head of their Government
commonly and plausibly accused of
participating in the swindle identified
in it's highest personalities with mean
and fragrant frand.
Every honest American in England
runs the risk every time that he dimes
with party of Englishmen of being
made to blush by an allusion to the
Emma mine or General Schenck, and
be must blush in silence, for there IS
not one word that can be said in
mitigation of the disgrace; whenever
he takes up morning paper he may
see that some beggared victim of Grant
and Schenck has instituted criminal
action against the American Minister
for completely in swindle, which but
for his name might never have been
aswindle at all, and would certainly
not have been successful one; that
he cannot 60 to his Minister'S re-
ceptious with self-respect, or, if he
went. meet there an Englishman who
has any.
That's the way we stand, and | wish
that, since General Grant and his
official advisers are lost to all sense of
diplomatic propriety. every honest
editor in the United States would hear
our complaint, and repeat it till the
whole country felt the shame.

TAXES.

The Board of County Commissioners
will meet next week. One of the duties
of the Board at that meeting will be to
levy taxes for State. county and school
purposes for the next fiscal year. At
the last session of the Legislature bill
was passed reducing the State tax from
81 % to 80 cents on each 500 of tax
able property. In consequence of this
reduction tax of So So thisy year equals
tax of So last year. For county pur-
poses the maximum rate is ST. 80 on
each 800, and 80 cents for school pur-
poses. As no effort has yet been made
to negotiate the bonds authorized to be
issued by Act of the last Legislature
entitled can Act to authorize the Com
missioners of Humboldt county to issue
bonds for the purpose of redeering
bonds heretofore issued, and to provide
for the payment of the same" The
ACCESSIBILITY of levying the tax of thirty
cents, as provided in said Act for the
payment of the interest on bonds not
yet issued, is at least questionable.
There is no certainty that the bonds
can be disposed of at their par value, as
provided in the Act, within the next
year, therefore no necessity exists at
present for levying tax to provide for
the payment of interest on the same.
Under these circumstances a tax of
50 IS on each 500 of taxable property
ought to be sufficient for all purposes,
except, of course, the special school
tax in Winnemucca District. This low
rate of taxation compared with that of
Elko and other counties Will have
tendency to induce stockmen and team
sters to have their herds and teams as
sessed in this county, and thereby add
materially to the taxable property.
There is no great necessity for increas-
ing taxation to pay off the debt incurred
for county buildings at the present
time. Humboldt is steadily increasing
i'll wealth and population, and persons
who come to reside here in the future
can have no valid objections to paying
a part of the Courthouse debt, from
which they derive equal benefits with
others.

THE following extract is suggested
for use by teachers and pupils in
school as an exercise test of pronun-
citation. 1t must be read off immedi-
ately without pause to consider which
is the proper way to pronounce the
words:
1. A courier from st. Louis, an
italian with italics, began an address
or recitative as to the mischievous
national finances.
2. His dolorous progress wss de-
monstrated by demonstration, and
the preface to his sacerdotal profile
gave his opponents an irreparable and
lamentable wound. 49,.
8. He was deaf and isolated. and
the envelope on the furniture at the
depot was a covert for leisure and the
reticence from the first grasp of the
Legislature of France.
4. The dlation of the cbasm, or
trough, made the servile satyr and
virile optimist vehemently panegyrize
the lenient God.
5. He was an aspirant after the
vagaries of the exoreists and an mex
orable coadintor of the irrefraeible, vet
exquisite. Farrago. on the subsistence
of the desricable finale and the recog-
milton of the recognizance.

the Centennial.

A correspondent of the Boston Post,
who has been interviewing the poet
Tennysou, thus describes the Laureate
I" He is tall, gauut, shaggy-haired, with
agged-looking beard, and long, stray
ling locks of light brown, very much
tinged with gray. He wears big
SLOUGH hat and cloak, and were it not
for pair of deep, large dreamy eyes,
there would be nothing in the least
poetic in his appearance. Indeed, he
is almost shabby to the outward eye;
his manner shy, and his apparent en-
deayors to pass hither and thither
quite unnoticed."

GRANTS ACTION IN LOUISIANA.

Andy Johnson, in his speech in the
Senate on the resolution approving
the Presidents action in Louisiana
said
The President assumed to take COM
mand of the State and give these peo-
pie government. What does he say
himself upon that point? He says in
his message: 1T has been generally
conceded that Kellogg was not elected.
Whether he was or not is not altogether
certain, nor is it any m ore certain that
his competitor, McEnery, was chosen.
The election WAS a gigantic fraud, and
there are no reliable returns. Kellogg
obtained the Office, and McEnery has
no more right TO it than he has" Here
are two men competing for the guber-
material chair of the State, neither en-
titled TO it, and if there has been any
gigantic frauds in the election. the pro-
ceedings should be looked over; but
the President comes along, finds the
usurper In power, and takes it upon
himself to make the Government of the
United States party to this usnrpa-
ton. Is not this monstrous? Why,
the time has been in this country, and
since my recollection, too, that if an
act like this. if an usurpation like this
had been attempted, it would have pro-
duced a shock throughout the nation.
The nation would have been indignant
from one extreme to the other, and
would have been ready to hurl from
power the perpetrator of such an act.

The Boston Globe says al it cost
Massachusetts, $780, to bury Charles
Sumner. Double that amount to get
Ben Butler under the ground would be
o profitable investment for the Bay
State. The burial of Sumner at any
cost is something to be regretted, but
the payment of the funeral expenses of
Butler would be hailed with delight by
the nation. and the most overburdened
taxpayer would gladly contribute his
proportion.

A CHICAGO man went to visit his girl
one evening. and found her cool and
distant. After few moments standing,
remarked that he guessed he'd 20.
"Oh!" said she. starting from a
beautiful condition of semi. conscious-
ness, "won't you take a chair?''
!" Well. I don't care if do" was his
reply, and he took the chair, thanking
her kindly, and carried it home. He
says it is good chair, made of walnut,
with stuffing and green cover-just
what he wanted.
