LONDON Jan. 2S-The Berlin dispatch 10 the

objected TO the course OF Austria AMI Germany

tremely improbable. Italy herself having taken
precautionary measures against Infection by

OF vessels from southern Russian ports. is not
likely 10 cndeSVOr 10 interfere with the action
OF German and Austria in that direction. The
Russians complain Of the stir made about the
plague, especially Of Germany'S action i'm
making sanitary pTecaution a sort OF niema-
uonal affair. They assert that all proper pre-
cautious VIII be taken by them. and as proof OF
the efficacy Of the measures already employed,
point 10 the fact that since the outbreak OF the
disease il has made no progress beyond the
places where IL first made its appearance. The
Vienna newspapers reply TO these Complaints,
and say that. according TO the understanding
come 10 by The last international sanitary con-
gfeSS OF Europe, the authorities OF each cOun-
try were at once TO give notice of the fact TO
the other countries on the appearance within
The borders OF any epidemic, and make regular

served in the present instance until communi-
cations on the subject appearing in Russian

A Decision Adverse 10 the Govern

ALEXANDRIA, Jan. 2s.-Judge Hughes read a
long written decision on the points raISed by
the instructions asked for 10y cOunse. in the Ar
lngton case, on the opening OF the L. =. circuit
court here to-day. The court decides 10 grant
instructions asked for by the plaintiffs. and 10
refuse the instructions on the same points OF
law prayed for by the defendants. lie holds that
the supreme Court, had in two contested eases.
settled the principle that owners OF land sub
lected TO the direct taxation or Congress- under
the act Of 1869 3, had a right 20 pay the tax at
any time before tax sale, through friend or
agent as well as In person, and that tender of
payment or practice OF the commissioners re-
fuSlng payment OF tax, by a friend or agent.
prevented pcrfeCture and invalidated tax sale
made after such tender or after the adoption or
such a practice. The judge considered with
elaboration the distinction sought TO be set up
by defendants counsel between such a sale
made 10 a private purchaser and one made TO
the United states, and held that although the
supreme court had not passed upon any case OF
q sale made To the United States under the cir
cumslanceS described, yet that there was no
principle of law, and no provision OF the acts or
1862 90 that would Justify such distinction and
give the Inited States such a title, IL a pur-
chaser, under a sale. which would be void If
made 10 private purchaser. He therefore re-
fused the Instructions asked by the defendants.
