Queen Yfctoria,s IsraeIites.

The town of Taunton, in England,
contains, according to the last census, a
population OF IL, 466 souls. Two of these
souls are it's mayor and vicar. The
mayors name is Jacobs, and the wears
name is Mr.. Smith. Mr.. Smith has
distinguished himself from several other
gentlemen bearing the same cognomen,
by writing to Mr.. Jacobs the following
extraordinary letter:
"TAUNToN; July 7, 1877.
"SIR-It appears to be very generally
supposed that you, who have become our
mayor, are an unbaptizeG person, ard
consequently not a Christian. If, as l
hope is the case, there be no truth in
this supposition, will you authorize me
publicly to say so, and thus relieve very
many persons in our town from an
exceedingly painful and distressing
impression? It would also be an act of
Justice to the aldermen and councillors
who have elected yO11, to free them from
the imputatfon under which they now
rest of having knowingly chosen for the
chief officer, and, in some sense, repre-
sentative of our town, one who does not
believe IN Him whom they themselves
profess not only to believe in, but to
worship as their Lord and God. pro-
pose to publish this letter, together with
any answer you may send to it. am,
your Obedient servant,
FREDERICK SMITH,
"Viear of St. Johns, Taunton"
To this illumination the " unbaptized
person, and consequently not Christ
ian, replied as follows:
TAUNTON, July 9, 1877.
"REvEREND SIR have received a
letter bearing your signature, and but
for recognizing your writing should have
deemed it a forgery. l am proud to
avow myself a member of the Hebrew
faith and of people who in free England
have attained some of the highest official
positions in the land. 1 am equally
proud to know that my Christian neigh
bors and friends have not permitted
| religious differences to influence them in
| the choice of their first mayor. [ shall
ever retain a pleasing recollection of the
| high distinction that has been conferred
on me, and l shall not permit anything
to mar the pleasure 1 feel in subscribing

WEfnd in the Kokomo Ind.) Tribune
Of the l7th, an editorial account Of the
labors Of the Rev, D. b. Updegrafr, Of Mt.
Pleasant, OHIO, at the Friends Church in
that town. The editor says that it seem.
ed to him as il the reverend gentleman
preached exactly like the Apostles used
to. The reading OF the morning lesson
and his comments captivnted the whole
audience"
zone could have collected from any ten
minutes Of that discourse great thoughts
so prominent and palpable and numer.
Gus that all the hats and Quaker bonnets
in the Westinghouse could have been
hung upon them.'
This Mr., UpdegrOG is remarks able
man. Many years ago he was a great
horse ianCier, and used to frequent the
Wheeling Island course with some Of his
iastgoing stock, OF late years, how.
ever, he has abandoned anything OF this
character, and devoted himself lealously
to the ministry.

The School Tax.

A'AlNuth AutlllseuCGl'
Mr.. Tingle's card published in yester.
day mornings Register contains matter
which, to use a familiar expression, is i'm.
portant il true. Speaking Of the action
OF the Senate on Senate Bill No. 40, Mr.,
7. says that body was actuatcd by no
consideration other than TO make the
law conform to the constitution, and do
justice. The first consideration is an i'm.
portant one, and oughtto be fully under.
stood. | would therefore ask Mr.. TinCle
or any one else who knows,
il it is actually constitutional
provision that the school moneys shall
be collected by the sherifls oil the different
counties. Ii it is, will Mr.. Tingle tell
me how it happens that the discovery Of
the unconstitutionality Of the provision
making the school taxes collectable by a
special collector was not discovered so
long as Ohio county had Republican
sheriff?
Again, il Mr.. T. is correct on his con-
stilutional point and the Legislature
concurs in,his views, will notSthc restora-
ton Of the collections to the sheriils
be retroactive? In other words, is
not that which is done in violation
OF the constitutions null and void,
and can not the sureties Of Mr..
Brown, who have had to make up a de-
felt, Indemnify themselves through this
aim Of the Senate ito dojustite." If it was
unconstitutional to take away portion
OF the revenues of the Sheriff OF Ohio
county in order 10 make it Improbable
to Republican incumbent, have not the
snreties OF Mr.. Brown right to recover
those constitutional revenues Of which he
was illegally deprived.
Il Mr.. Tingle correct, or has it come to
pass that the legislation Of the State Of
West Virginia iscontrolled solely by per.
sOnal and partisan aims and ends? 1t
would be some satisfaction to have an
explicit understanding Of the principle
which is to govern legislation in this
State. Is it to be understood that body
