Special Taxes,

The assessments for street improvements
are only one third of the cost upon the prop
erty Immediately benefited. This, to fair
minded men, is sufficient reason for prompt
money scarce. This has caused delay, but we
are glad to learn that with the increase of
money lying idle among capitalists has come
an increase of the payments of special taxes.

YOUNG CATHOLICS FRIEND SOCIETY.

annual meeting and ElecCon OF Omcers,
The twenty-fourth annual meeting of the
Young Catholics Friend Society was held at
Carroll hall on Sunday evening for the purpose
of hearing the annual report of the General
Society and electing officers. The society was
called to order by Mr.. James Lackey, vice
president. The annual report was presented,
showing that the amount received from dues
was Sl3S.75 greater than the amount received
the preceding year, while the receipts from
other sources were smaller. OF the amount
received $50 were donated by Archbishop Bay
ley. The net proceeds of Professor J. ". Phil
ips' lecture and donation from a kind lady o.
st, Patrick's parish made up the balance of
the amount.
The president in his annual report speaks of
the death of eleven active members: among
the number bis honored predecessor, John
Carroll Brent, esq.,, one of the organizers and
the first corresponding secretary OF the society,
for many years its president, and from its or
ganiZation to the day Of his death a most ex-
emplary member.
ELECTION OF OFFICERS.
Mr.. George K. Petty was elected president.
The other officers were all reelected from last
year, the list standing as follows: George K.
Petty, president; James Lackey, vice president;
Joshua Huntington, secretary; John Simonton,
corresponding secretary; Rudolph Eichhorn,
treasurer; John Bingham, book keeper; j.
Howard Bushnell, steward.
The retiring president, Mr.. J. Edmond
Mallet, will leave to-day for Tulalip, Washing
ton Territory, having received an appointment
as Indian agent at that post. The society
last evening adopted the following resolutions:
Whereas we, the officers and members of the
Young Catholics Friend Society, of Washing
ton, D. c., have learned that J. Edmond
Mallet, esq, president of the society, is about
to remove from this city, thereby sundering
his correction with US; and whereas we think
the occasion fitting one for the expression of
our appreciation of his services as president of
the society: therefore,
ReSol0ed, That We tender our sincere thanks
to Mr.. Mallct for the constant interest mani
tested by him in the welfare of the society, and
We recognize the fact that whatever success it
has achieved in the prosecution of its beneyo-
lent ends has been due in great measure to
bis zeal and uutiring energy throughout the
seven years Of his presidency.
Resolced, That by the uniform kindness
which has characterized his personal inter
course with the members of the society, he
has acquired place in our affections which
will not be vacated by his absence from our
midst.
RcSolred, That we offer to him our ardent
wishes for his future success and happiness
wherever his lot iu life may be cast.
