Sunday school Concert.

The concert given by the Congrega-
tional Sunday school Thursday night at
the church proved very entertaining af-
fair. The evening itself was delightful,
and the little folks sustained their we'll
acquired, reputation of giving very in
teresting programme. They were all
well up in the parts assigned them, and
everything passed off smoothly and agree
ably to the audience present. Financially
it was not so great success as the for
mer one. the treasury of the school being
increased between five and six dollars.
This is not as well as was anticipated,
nor as the demands of the school require.
The school is very much in need of addi-
tions to the library, and it was hoped
that the ayails of this entertainment
would enable them to make their much
needed addition. The school is i'm very
flourishing condition, and the children
are deserving OF better accommodation
i'm the way of books, the number now in
the library not being sufficient to provide
the whole school with books, as il should.
However, what was received will be OF
great benefit. and doubtless the school
will be grateful to those who contrib
uted.

Business in Justice Sammons' court has

This morning Edward Aiott appeared
before the court, escorted by E. PaqIiette,
who arrested him last night for being
drunk. He listened to the evidence, and
concluded he was drunk, and so inform
ed the court. He was assessed So and
costs. Either because he did not have
the money, or to show his contempt of
the court, he refused to pay and was
committed to Jail for fifteen days. He

Taxes on Five.year lands.

The Lansing Republican says in re-
gard to, the decision of the Supreme
Court in regard to-the tax on five-year
lands that the far reaching decision of
the Supreme Court in regard to the tax
OIL tiye-year lands Iamount to this: The
law of 1869, being headed ''tOr the uni
form assessment of property and the
collection and return of taxes thereon
cannot apply to tax levied prior to its
passage; therefore it applies to no
sales of land for taxes unpaid in any
year. previous to 1869. Where the state
has sold such lands for less than the taxes
and charged the deficiency back to the
counties, the claim of the state against
the counties is invalid. As the five-year
law was repealed III 1875, there is no
machinery left for the collection Of those
old taxes. While the state will have 10
pay such counties as are ahead, she can
not recover from such as are behind.
Careful and systematic action must be
taken by the Legislature, or that appall-
ing "balance" in the state treasury will
melt away like glittering icicles IN April
and heavy direct taxes will become
necessary to pay our state bonds and in

The Range Lights.

We are glad to learn that the range
lights are to be pushed rapidly forward
to completion, and that the prospect is
that they will be in working order by
the lst of July. The lights have been
purchased, and are all ready to be set up
as soon as the towers can be completed,
and it is the intention of the department
to commence work on them as early i'm
the season as practicable. Messrs.
Humphrey and Baker have agreed to
both deed the amount of the dock prop
erty desired by the department for the
lower light, and to divide the purchase
price equally. This secures the site to
the satisfaction of the government, and
insures an early commencement OF the
work. These lights are very much need
ed, and will prove of great advantage in
navigating the channel of our har-
Dor.

Inland Navigation.

The prospects of early navigation into
Burt lake are far from encouraging. Lo-
cal commissioner Chandler made a
visit to Indian river during the week,
and ascertains that the bar at the mouth
of the Sturgeon is much worse than last
fall, and that only very light draught
boats Will be able TO pass over it, The
work above the Sturgeon done last sea-
son is i'm good condition. The success
OF failure of navigating our inland waters
now seems to hinge on shutting off the
supply of sand from the Sturgeon river.
satisfactory proposals for constructing
dam not having been received, Mr..
Chandler examined. the feasibility OF
turning the course of the river and
emptying it into Burt lake. This would
insure the navigation ofthe river forever
and the cost is not estimated to be much
above that Of dam. Mr.. Chandler will
receive proposals for diverting the stream
according to plans aid specifications in
his Office. If contract could be made
at once for doing this work, Indian river
might be made navigable for the latter
portion of the season.

the work will soon begin and be pushed
forward to an early completion. Some
