Decrease of Rural Indebtedn ess.

The reports OF the Indebtedness of the
towns of Maine indicate a large reduction
within the past ten years. At the close of
the war the rural town. were heavily in
debt for soldiers bounties. The taxpayers
in nearly all such towns set themselves res
olutely to the work of paying up. In ten
years scores of towns have paid their entire
indebtedness, and all have reduced it large
ly, excep. few that have loaned their
credit to railroad enterprises. This fnan-
cial exhibit Of the farming section of Maine
is most encouraging, and more than any
other cause will enhance the value OF
farms. Taxation has come to mean some
thing TO our people, 80 that the man who Ia
looking for farm will, among his first in
quiries, ascertain the Indebtedness of the
town. IL it amounts TO ten or twenty per
cent. of the valuation he will go elsewhere,
for taxation to pay town debts has come to
be considered a mortgage which man
cannot discharge even il he has got the
means. 1t is not altogether improbable
that the high taxes in cities will influence
many who have left the farms in the re-
cent flush times to get rich at light work in
cities, to return to their old places and take
others with them.

O'Brien's Six Shows.

The EOs'y Epening and Commercial, the
leading newspaper of Delaware, says of
the performances of John O'Brien's six
shows, given in Wilmington:
The performances given in this city yes
terday by John O'Brien's circus were well
attended aud gave every satisfaction. The
acts were all new, aud performed with
such accuracy as to elicit the warmest ap-
plause. The clowns were original and de-
corous, the gymnasts faultless, the horses
10 good trim, and the costumes and every
thing about the show had that fresh and
neat appearance which adds to the comfort
of performance OF any kind. A feature
of the circus is the display of wild animals,
Shch is superior to any that has been
witnessed here for some time. Mr.. OBrien

Of the Peninsula we can recommend hi.

The Brandon Murderer and Suicide.

1t will be remembered at the time Of the
Brandon murder, the murderer and suicide,
Charles Williams, was claimed as native
of Bristol, England, and that he went from
this country to Bristol in 1876, and return
ed to America. ]. @. Hawkins, the eff
cient coroner in the case, wrote to the
mayor of Bristol, England, informing him
of the murder, and the clam of Williams
to be from that city.
Mr.. Hawkins has received a reply from
the chief constable of the city, dated a,
Brodewell street, Bristol, England, 10Th of
June, 1877, in which Mr.. Hawkins letter
of the 18th of May is acknowledged, and
says; "The police of this city have not
been able to ascertain anything about
"CharleS Williams" asked the newspapers
proprietors to take notice of your letter,
and herewith enclose short extract from
the Bristol Times" The extract from the
Bristol Times narates the circumstances OF
the murder and suicide, and notes Mr.
Hawkins letter.

The New Orleans daily Democrat. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1877-1880, 1877-06-21

We desire to call the attention OF
those who are In the habit Of being re-
miss In the payment Of their capita's
personal property and license taxes TO
the first section of Act No. 80 Of the ex-
ira session. It reads as follows:
SECTION /. Be IL enacted, etc, That hereafter
the Administrator Of Finance Of the city of New
Orleans shall have authority (if in his discretion
he deem ft) to bring suits for taxes on capital or
personal property and licenses where the amount
involved does not exceed one hundred dollars,
before any Justice of the Peace of the city Of New
Orleans in whose district the defendant or de-
PENDANTS may do business or reside, and said
justice shall have power to issue such iDunctons,
provisional seizures and other orders in the
prosecution and collection Of said taxes and
licences which by existing laws may be issued for
that purpose.
We believe that the Administrator of
Finance will "in his discretion deem fit"
to enforce the collection, not only of the
taxes mentioned In this act, but of the
real estate taxes Of this and previous
years, by all means in his power. In
the efforts he will make to that end he
will be heartily encouraged and sus-
tanned by his constituents. The people
Of this city and State should be willing
to endure some privations for the sake
OF placing the fiscal affairs of New Or
leans and Louisiana on a sound basis
and showing that they are worthy of the
great boon OF self government which
they have secured after such desperate
struggles

struggles,

The Lonely Life Of CoIored west
Pointer.
Flipper, the colored cadet at West
Point said the other day that he had not
suffered much on account of his race.
The first year was very hard, as the
cadets all made their dislike manifest
in variety OF ways. "That," he said,
was IN a great measure caused by the
bad conduct Of Smith, the colored cadet
Who preceded me. When the class
found out that was not like him they
treated me we'll. The professors act to-
ward me in every respect as toward the
others, and the cadets, I think, do not
dislike me. But they don t associate with
me. / don't care for that. III they don t
want to talk to me / don't want them
to, I'm sure" Save in the recitation
room Flipper never heard the sound Of
his own voice for months and months at
a time, but he was kept so hard at work
all the time that he did not mind 1t, II
he should join a regiment, however, he
would be more alone even than he has
been at West Point, for the association
with other officers in the line OF duty
would not be 80 close as it has been
with the cadets. He would be isolated
ostracised- he would feel it more
keenly because he would have more
leisure for social intercourse, and his
mind would not be so occupied as it has
been at West Point with studies. Sena-
tor Blaine advised him to 20 South, be-
come leader Of his race and grow
famous.

As will be seen by our dispatches this
morning, Judge Hilton attempts to
make some explanation to the New
York press concerning his conduct in
refusing Mr.. Seligman accommodation
In the Grand Union Hotel. These rea-
sons (p). which he gives. are calculated
to excite as much surprise as did the
original offense. His first motives were
alleged to be founded on race discrim-
ination, but they were apparently
based on bitter and vindictive feel
ing againt the individual. With sim
gular frankness he now says that what
no did was done In the interest Of
the property which he represented, vir-
tually because he felt like giving the
affront, as he does not state how or in
what manner the presence of Mr.. Selig-
man would injure that property We
are glad to see that this unwarrantable
conduct is likely to be denounced in a
public meeting.
