That Railroad Tax.

The Finance Committee. came into
Council on! Tuesday evening .with.a re.
port recommending q levy Of so cents on
the one hundred dollars valuation Of real
estate, so cents on every tithable and 90
cents on every one hundred dollars valua-
,tion Of personal property, and in addition
thereto Il tax OF so cents on every one
hundred dollars valuation Of real estate
for the purpose Of paying compromise
railroad bonds. ~
Fifty cents all round tho board is a
pretty stiff tax and. indicates that there
must be- considerable stress from some
quarter on the Treasury. II is the out
side limit Of taxation under the city
charter; and the addition Of the railroad
tax shows that the resources Of the city
are being drawn upon to their utmost.
OF course there was strong opposition to
the adoption Of a railroad tax Of 80 cents,
and II was finally cut down to. 25 cents
and passed by the Second Branch. Be-
fore it becomes law, however, it must
go through the ordeal OF discussion in the
First Branch, which meets on Friday
night. An important element in the levy
OF this extra tax for railroad purposes IN
the legal authority for 40 doing. Every
body who knows anything Of our unfor-
tunate railroad investments understands
for what purpose a special enactment
was passed by the Legislature on March
18th, 1860. Such as are not posted on our
railroad history can turn to page 40 Of
the ordinance book for. information, Sec
ton iodriof 'tl,e act provides; "that all
such taxes shall bc applicable to the pur-
poses Of this section compromise bonds)
and no other purpose" Beginning with
page 2sS OF the ordinance book, is spread
out in full all city legislation in regard TO
the railroad tax. Does the City Council
claim that any of the conditions provided
for either by the act Of the General AS
sembly or the city ordinances formed in
accordance with that acI, now exis49 II
they do not exist the levy aclearly with
out legal authority.

LONDON, September. 1S,1The Vienna
correspondent Of the Times reports that
in consequence OF renewed representa-.
lions of the European ambassadors at
Constantinople the resolutions taken in
Council on Wednesday Of last week were
reconsidered Sunday, but the result OF the
fresh deliberations was the same as be-
fore with one exception, which was in re-
spect to the new investiture OF Prince
Milan, it now being, required that the
Prince shall only 90 TO Constantinopre
10 pay homage 10 the Sultan. No mention
Of Montenegrins is made in the conditions
which bears out the statement that the
Turks desire tobreak the solidacy between
servia and Montenegro and treat with
them separately about terms OF peace
The resolutions as finally agreed on were
submitted on Sunday to the Sultan, who
considered the conditions exaggerated
and ordered a convocation OF an extra
council Of 80. This first act OF the sovereign
will be startling asit eeems that, ID did
not surprise them who knew what
occurred at the first reception Of the
Turkish ministers by the Sultan after
the proclamation. Then the Sultan ex.
pressed his dissatisfaction at the course
affairs we're taking. He said II was nee.
essary to make friends aud show England
that no more atrocities would occur
The war should be brought to a close az
soon as possible, Turkey giving fair con-
ditions. IL his present advisers were
unable 10 effect this he would find Others
who could. The effect Of this allocution
was stunning, especially to the Grand
Vizier, who has kept ,his room ever since,
The absence Of the Grand Vizier is con.
sidered hint to his younger colleagues
to lose no time in the action on tue
ideas Of tie Sultan. They VIII thus avert
the danger threatening all. Much de.
pcndence Ia placed on Mahomond Damod
the sultans brother.in.law, on whose
advice its supposed the Sultan mainly
acts. ~ '.|'
