Another Spanish Insult to the United
States Flag

BosToN, July ia letter has been re-
eeived at Provincetown from Captain
Taylor, Of the whaling schooner Rising
Sun, bearing report of another insult
to the American flag. On the Goth of
May he was cruising off the South Keys
of Cuba on the lookout for whales.
About 9 A. M. a school was sighted to
leeward. Capt. Taylor and his chief
mate. Mr.. Atkins, killed two small
whales and were pursuing others when
the boom of a gun was heard and shot
ricocheted over the waves and plunged
into the sea ere it reached them. Soon
two more reports and two Kissing balls
followed each other in rapid succession.
Capt. Taylor, perceiving that some
thing must be done, started for his YES
sci, butwas intercepted by the enemy,
who proved TO be Spaniard. His own
person was demanded as hostage I'm til
Spanish gunboat should make her APP
pearance and examine her paper. He
refused and they demanded his chief
mate, and were memorable. In vain he
protested, reminding them of the loss of
his vessel and claiming the validity Of his
papers, Mr.. Atkins was taken and
placed on board, the captain being left
alone to secure the whales as best he
could, difficult task in heavy sea.
For five days the mate was detained,
until Spaniah gunboat arrived and de-
claired the papers correct. This deten-
ton at this particular time IN the midst
of school Of whales was serious loss
to the vessel, and is but sequel to the
outrage perpetrated on the Ellen Riz-
pah and her captain.

readjustment of the debt the almost
universal sentiment is against an in
crease Of taxes on property. Other
subjects Of taxation has been the watch
word Of aspirants for political prefer
ment-and so far these other subjects
Of taxation have not been discovered.
The Moffett Whlskey Tax Bill was
passed in the last legislature by small
majority. Granting that it will not be
repealed OR made a nullity by the
opposition arrayed against it. and that
everything will be realized that its most
sanguine friends claim for it, yet after
all, hundreds of thousands will still be
required to fill the gap. The oyster tax
has proved failure from the beginning,
and is likely to remain so according to
the opinion of persons best informed on
the subject so long as the constitutional
provision inh:biting the imposition of a
tax for the privilege of taking or CATCH
ing oysters with tongs stands as the
organic law of the land.
The sentiment Of the State is over
whelmingly against the imposition of a
stamp tax, judging from the tate bill
for that purpose met IN the last House
of Delegates-aad so in regard to taa
on dogs to pay the public debt. What
then are the other subjects of taxation
will some one point them out so that
the State can have the benefit Of them
And after all will not the people Of the
State have to bear the increased bur-
den Of taxation whether placed on
property, or on other subjects of tax
alton to be hereafter discorerea? Oul
article is longer already that we inten-
ded at the outset. We hope in future
to be able to recur to this subject
again.

Official reports from Generel Ord
state that the Mexican General Trevino,
by direction of his government, his with
drawn from the agreement entered into
between them in regard to cooperative
movements against Mexican cattle
raiders. The effect Of this withdrawal
will be to give force to resist any at.
tempts on the part Of the American
commander to pursue raidera across
the border by force. The subject will
be matter of immediate consideration
There will be no change in the policy
of the government, however. The Mex
leans will either have to see that these
raiders are prevented from crossing the
border. or take the responsibility of any
attempt to oppose the United States
forces in carrying out the instructions
given to Gen. Ord.

LIABILITY OF 1NDORSERs ON PRO
MIssoRY NOTES.-The United States
Supreme Court in a recent decision lays
down several principles Of law in re-
ference to the liability Of indorsers on
promissory notes. 1t holds that an in
dorser is competent witness to prove
an agreement in writing, made with the
holder of the note at the time Of the in
dorsement. that he shall not be held
liable thereon where the paper is still
held by the party TO whom the indorse-
ment was made and has not been put
into circulation. 1t also holds that an
agrdem ent like this and the indorse-
ment taken together are equivalent. so
far as the holder Of the note is concern
ed, to ian Endorsement without recourse
to the indorser." 1t further holds that
the omission Of indorsers on a series OF
notes. under such agreement. to suit up
the agreemen as defense IN a suit
brought on two such notes not preclude
their setting it up in another action
brought on other notes Of the same
series, the judgment in the first action
not operating as an estoppel in the
second.
