PORTSMOUTH, August 5. A special meeting of
the board Of aldermen was called this afternoon
to see what action shall be taken to protect the
City's interest in the Portsmouth & Dover rail
road to consider the proposition now before the
legislature wherein the Eastern railroad in New
Hampshire asks to be authorized to issue bonds to
amount not exceeding the amount of its capi-
tai stock, and secure the same by mortgage of
its road franchise aud all other property owned by
it to q trustee or trustees resident ID New Hamp-
shire, and that any sale thereafter made by virtue
of any power contained in said mortgage in case
of default shall be held to be good and valid
foreclosure of the same. After earnest consider
alton OF the NATTER the board unanimously agreed
that if such legislation was made it would serious
ly impair the security for rental, diminish the value
and possibly prevent the pay ment of dividends
upon the shares of stocks 10 the Portsmouth 4
Dover railroad in which this city is interested to
large extent, 1t was voted that the mayor be
thorlzed and requested 10 oppose any such legisa
tloD before the legislative co mmittee, and TO asso
ciste with him such persons in aid of tue object
of his visit 10 Concord as he may deem exped tent.

quany of goods, has at last been soly ed by Sheriff
Kent In whose charge both men are, and now In
Jail 10 th is city. 1t appears that Ward is less
than Charles W lay Ion of Newburyport where
he has respectable connections, and Haley Is a
well known individual named Jeremiah Toomey

has been at the Ipswich honse of correction and
the Westboro reform school, OF which latter place

Cost Of RAINING the County.

We elsewhere publish repor
of the proceedings Of the Board o
Supervisors of this county; con
tanning list of the allowances
which comprises the county cx'
penses for the preceding sis
months, less $500; 1.-THE amount
realized by sale Of bonds for cur

ing issuance OF Warrants except
when money is in the treasury ia

anccs aggregates $5,655.
We believe we are safe in assert
ing that this is one half, certainly
one third less, than the cost Of run
ming the county prior to the pas
sage of the said act. The benefits
Of the operation of the funding act /,
containing the provision above re-
fcrred to, are unmistakeable and
promise speedy liquidation Of
the county debt, as well as great
reduction in the expense of carry
ing on the county government. Of
course there can be no very con-
siderable reduction OF taxation un-
ill the funded debt is paid off.
Now may not these benefits be
secured by our municipal govern
ment also? On a smaller scale we
witness the same evils Of the credit

til our town finances will become

which Is dcsirous and Jealous to
avoid this elimination, to take this
matter under advisement and Pc
tition the Legislature for the pas
sage of..a funding act; coupled
with . provision for the issuance
OF . sufficient amount Of Revenue
Bonds to defray current expenses
until tax paying time.
IN this connection We append
the following from Che Governors
recent message.
l desire TO call your attention to
the subject Of Municipal Taxation.
Some legislation Il needed to put a
limit upon the power of cities aud
towns to levy taxes for corpora
ti0n purposes. In some instances,
taxes are levied In currency by
cities and towns in excess Of those
authorized by the Legislature, for
State and county purposes. SO
grevi0us has become the burden Of
municipal taxation, that IN many
localities the proposition Is sug-
gested and seriously entertained OF
surrendering the corporation char
tcrs, and adopting some plan which
will secure benefits al least equal
to those secured by the charters.
aud at inconsiderablc expense.
While the taxes assessed and col
lected for the purposes Of paving
the necessary expenses Of the State
aud counties, are much less than
during any year Of the past seven,
yet the heavy taxes still assessed
and collected by many municipal
corporations prevent the relief
which should be experienced. Il
is doubted whether the corpora
tions confer benefits at all com
mcnsuratc with thebnrdens which
they impose.
The subject deserves very care
fnl consideration at your hands.
