The Fire Saturday Morning,

About two o'clock Saturday morn
ing the night watch discovered that
Corbin's block, on the corner OF Mich
igan and LaPorte streets, was on fire.
Soon the fire bells were ringing and
the firemen with hundreds more OF
Plymouth's citizens were hurrying
along the streets. The smoke pour
ing out OF McKelvy's and Corbin's
windows told that the fire was not a
miniature one, and that the entire
block Was in great danger. McKelvy
had reached the building before the
engine could be got into position and
attempted to enter and il possible
save HE books and valuable papers,
but the smoke and flames drove him
back and he gave up all as lost. But
now Plymouth's gallant firemen had
their engine in position and we're soon
to show that they could save the block
from destruction, where unorganized
effort without the aid OF an engine
would have been utterly powerless,
and in twenty minutes the hundreds,
that believed on their arrival that
within few minutes the REPUBLICAN
Office and Houghton's and Crawford's
stores below would be wrapped 10
flames, to end perhaps in the destruc-
tion OF The entire block, saw the
flames subdued Up the stairway
and in the window from LaPorts
street two steady steady streams OF
water were poured and the fire was
extinguished. with only about two
hundred and fifty dollars damages
to the building. MessTs. McKelvey
and Corbip lost considerable amount
in stationary, etc.. while the goods in
Crawford's crockery store were dam
aged about two. hundred dollars 10y
water with which tile room was flood
ed. Houghton Bro, grocers, sustain
ed some damage from the same cause.
Both firms were fully insured.
The REPUBLICAN office, separated
only by IA partiti n from the room In
which,the fire ragged. escaped unharm-
ed. Without fire engine and dis
ciplined band of fremen it must have
been entirely destroyed. The fire
originated near the partition in one
or the other OF the real estate Offices.
How 1t orr mated will Pre- badly never
be known, but the prevailing opinion
seems TO be in favor OF spontaneous
combustion OF refuse matter, either
Ia the closet used by MoKelvey FOR
storing his wood, or under the stair
way in Corbin's Office. Others think
that mouse found dead in the room
the next morning had nibbled par
Tor match thrown in with other CON-
bustible material and started the
flames, but from whatever source the
fire originated, Plymouth feels thank
ful that one OF the finest business
blocks in the city escaped destrue-
ton.

A team ran away on east LaPorte

but could not bring the wheels Of the
wagon over the walk, and were
caught. The driver was thrown off

TILLMAN UNDER THE PALMETTO. -
From the Washington correspondence
of the Charleston Ne,cs and Courier we
copy the following. Tillman under the
palmetto is an omen of good:
South Carolina has been congratulated
upon having full Democratic represen-
tation in the House. The three new
members fill with grace aud dignity their
respective chairs. A good joke is told
upon the representative from the fifth
district in his selection of his seat. The
ceiling of the hall is fiat and divided into
panels of stained glass, in the centre of
each Of which is the escutcheon of some
one Of the States. OF course the palmetto
is conspicuous in one of them. This
dignifed member was accosted by a
friend, who had observed him audibly
soliloquizing to himself, with the inlui-
ry, "what are you thinking about?" With
measured words he replied, II was just
looking mt the palmetto tree (pointing to
the cciling) and wishing l might draw a
seat Immediately under it" Presently
his name was drawn, and two seats directly
under the coat of arms of South Carroll
ma were vacant. Our friend could not
decide which was most perpendicularly
under the palmetto, and while he was
hesitating which chair to choose the 9TH
er names we're drawn, and he had to
scramble to get either of his cherished
seats. He got it, however, and no
doubt the palmetto tree will inspire,
rather than shadow, some of his resplcn-
dent efforts before the expiration Of the
Forty-sixth Congress.

A RrA,-7rru1 sroRy.-Coleridpe re

A BEAUTIFUL SToRY.-Coleridge re-
lates story to this effect: Alexandria,
during his march into Africa, came to a
people dwelling in peaceful huts, who
knew neither war nor conquest. Gold
benig offered him, he refused it saying
that his sole object was to learn the man.
ners and customs of the inhabitants.
"Stay with u.s." said the Chief, "as long
as it pleaseth thee" During this inter-
view with the African Chief, two of his
subjects brought case acknowledgment.
The dispute was this: The one had
bought piece of ground, which, after
the purchase, was found to contain a
treasure, for which he felt himself bound
to pay. The other refused to receive
anything, stating that he had sold the
ground with what it might be found to
contain, apparent or concealed. Said
the Chief, looking at the one, "You have
:" and TO the other, "You have
daughter; let them be married, and
the treasure given them as a dowry."
Alexander was astonished. And what" }"
said the Chief, "would have been the
decision in your country?" 1--WE should
have dismissed the parties and seized the
treasure for the Kings use." "And does
the sun shine in your country?" said the
Chief; "does the rain fall there? Are
there any cattle there which feed upon
herbs and green grass?" Certainly"
said Alexander. "Ah," said the Chief,
"it is for the sake of those innocent cat
tie that the Great Being permits the sun
to shine, the rain TO fall and the grass to
grow in your country."-Boston Adrcr-
tiser.

duced to perhaps one cent per pair. Does
that not assert this association to be a
vast monopoly? And if so, is it to Sc
cure protection to such corporations that
the Constitution confers upon Congress
the power to protect Inventors for linn
tied time in the exclusive right to their
inventions? By no means.
Mr. Speaker, to my mind tits problemati-
cal whether congressional protection
could be given justly 10 the unfortunate
inventor who, either from choice or ne
cessity, disposcs of his property before its
utility or success has been tested
and secured. And surely, sir, it can no.
where be shown even by implication that
this protection is justly due to corpora
ton or association who have been and
are receiving aud for some time yet will
receive most exhorbitant income from
their investment in the inventions and
discoveries of others.
In conclusion, Mr.. Speaker, l assert
that if this House can favor the extern
sion here asked for there cannot arise
case in which the applicant should not
be encouraged to belive that there was
always hope to secure an extension OF a
patent.

City Debts Must be Paid.

WASHINGTON, March 81, 1879.
An opinion of Importance to all hold
ers of dishonored municipal bonds, and
one which is decisive of a certain class of
cases, was rendered in the Supreme
Court to-day in the case of Morris Ranger
against the City of New Orleans. The
litigation arose out of an application for
a writ of mandamus to compel the au-
thoritics Of that city to levy tax to pay
certain judgments rendered against it
upon bonds issued to the New Orleans,
Jackson and Great Northern Railroad
Company. The city set up as defence
that there was no legislative authority
for the levy of such tax. The petit
toner demurred to this answer, but the
Circuit Court overruled the demurrer
and denied the writ, whereupon the petit
toner took this appeal.
The court below proceeded on the
principle that the power Of taxation be-
longs exclusively to the legislative
branch of the Government, and that the
judiciary cannot direct tax to be levied
when none is authorized by the Lcgisla-
ture. This Court holds, in careful
opinion delivered by Justice Field, that
although the power of taxation is legis.
lative prerogative, it may be delegated
to a municipal corporation, or that when
such corporation is created, the power
of taxation is vested in it as an essential
attribute for all the purposes of its ex-
istence, unless its exercise is in express
terms prohibited. When, therefore, au-
thority to borrow money, or incur an
obligation to carry out any public object
is conferred upon a municipal corpora
ton, the power to levy tax for its pay
ment or the discharge of the obligation
accompanies it, and this too without any
special mention that such power is grant
ed. 1t is always to be assumed, in the
absence of clear restrictive provisions,
that when the Legislature grants to
city the power to create debt, it intends
that the city shall pay it, and that its
payment shall not be left to its caprice
or pleasure. Whenever power 10 con-
tract debt is conferred, it must be held
that corresponding power of providing
for its payment is also conferred. The
latter is implied in the grant of the
former, and such implication cannot be
overcome except by express words of
Limitation.
In the present case the Indebtedness of
the City of New Orleans is conclusively
established by the judgments recovered.
Owing the debt the city had the power
to levy a tax for its payment. and it was
clearly its duty to do so. The payment
was not matter resting on its pleasure,
but duty to the creditor, and having
neglected that duty mandamus should
have been issued to enforce its observ-
ance. The judgment of the lower Court
must therefore be reversed, and the cause
remanded, with directions to issue the
writ in compliance with the petition.
