a bill was fled yesterday for injunction
agaiust the collection Of the personal prop
erty tag, in which new argument is made
against the legality of the assessment. Tie
fri, who protest did not make any return,
but trusted most unfortunately to tho judg-
mcnt OF tho Assessor. They now allcge that
they hal no right to mako any return, hut
TINT by tho Constitution Of the State oil val-
uation for taxes shall bc made by officials ap-
pointed for that purpose, and that If they
had nado d schedule 1t would lavo only
servod rs guido for tho Assessor in making
his assessment They further lay stress on
the fact, Us tho grounds for the illegallity of
tho return, TINT the Assessor failed to ,so
Judgment and discretion, md also failed to
make I'LL itomizcd schedule. There arc thou
sands in tho city probably who hnvo failed
in like n,annor to mako a return, md who
will look with interest for tho decision on
this now point. It is doubtful, however, if
it can be sustained, as tho law imposes a
.luty on tho property -owncr, md lo cannot
maintain footing in court of equity to
ask relief when lie has failed in legal duty

that year, nnl its gold value or purchasing
powor was CO to Cs per cent OF specie.
In tho summer boforo tho panio the CTR.

over tho volume Of 1865, and It wna quoted Mt

After the panic tho Secretary Of tho Trcas-
ury, R1cuARpsos, Issued $4,000, 900 Of the
retired greonbaeks In tho vain hope Of rotor
ing public confidence md nrresting tho COL
lapse. In tho fail Of 1873, nnd throughout
1874, the currency atood Mt m average OF
S7GG, 000, 900, aud ita value at B8 to tl3 per
cont, which added largely to its purchasing
power. 4 couple OF months ago tile cur

ita value is now Us to 50 per cent on tho

In Wow Of these stubborn factst what war
rant bud Col. DANIELS, Of virgints, for asserting
TINT 1.-THE business depression Of the country
commenced with the adoption OF the system
Of consraction"? Tile fact is, no system Of
contraction had been adopted; but, on tho
contrary, tho currency had been steadi1y in-
tinted until the pressure OF gas blew tho head
cut Of tho boiler, and inflated credits, inflated
prices, aud inflated speculation exploded to-
gether In one tremendous crash.
Col DANIELS !" demanded that il the Gov
ernment loan u,onoy to tho banks upon the
security Of 5.o0 bonds, it should mike loans
to private citizens Whenever they presented
tho same security at tho National Treasury,
thus placing ali On equal terms"
The Colonel appears to have overlooked
the fact that the last Congress passed a I'rtt-
Ranking oct, whereby all citizens may OBJ
tain notas on the security Of bonds,--90
Of notes for 100 Of bonds, and by complying
with some other provisions in regard to re-
demption, deposits, loaua, taxes, stamps, and
sworn returns Of condition.
Now, If Col. DANIELS las any frianda who
want tue Government to "lend them notes."
hero Is q chance. If any Grangers wnnt 10
inaato the curronoy md pocket tho supposed
profit at the same time, the Frcc-Banking
law opens the way for tl1e,u to help Danish
contraction and ,nako their everlasting for
