peal. The court below proceeded on the
principle that the power of taxation be-
longs exclusively to the legislative branch
of the government, and that thu
Judiciary cannot direct tax to
be levied when none is authorized by the leg
islature. This court holds, in careful opin-
ion delivered by Justice Field, that although
the power of taxation is legislative peroga
tive, it may be delegated to a municipal cor
poration, or that when such a corporation is
created, the power of taxation is vested in it
as an essential attribute for all the purposes
of It's existence, unless It's exercise is in ex-
press terms prohibited. When, therefore,
authority to borrow money, or infur an obi
CATION to carry out any public object ia con-
ferred upon a municipal corporation, the pow
er to levy a tax for its payment or the dis
charge of the obligation accompanies it,
and this too without any special mention
that such power is granted. 1t is always
to be assumed In the absence of clear re-
strictive provisions, that when the legis-
lature grants to city the power to create
a debt, it intends that the city shall pay 1t,
and that its payment shall not be left to
its caprice or pleasure. Whenever a power
ITO contract a debt is conferred, it must
be held that corresponding power OF pro-
yiding for its payment is also conferred. The
latter is implied in the grant of the former,
and such implication cannot be overcome ex-
cept by express words of Limitation. In the
present case the Indebtedness of the city of
New Orleans is conclusiveiy established by
the judgments recovered. Owing the debt
the city had the ROVER to levy tax for its
payment, and it was clearly its duty to do So.
The payment was not matter resting on its
pleasure but a duty to the creditor, and
having neglected that duty a mandanus
should have been issued to enforce its OBJ
servance The Judgment of the lower court
must therefore be reversed, and the cause re-
manded, with directions to issue the writ in
compliance with the petition.

who are ''bone of their bone and flesh OF

can be done with less expense even, than it
will take to educate and maintain them
apart. l am informed they can get fifty
years lease on a lot in Oxford, Mississippi,
rent free, and their education secured free of

6cient to build for them little home, raise
the mortgage on the homestead so that it may
not be sacrificed, but applied to their sup
port, and raise enough to keep them from
want till they are able 10 support themselves.
In this home they would have the christian
guidance of an affectionate aunt, and the
BEST educational advantages the south affords,
besides each others converse and society.
Certainly this is not much to ask. Let US
call meeting and see if something cannot

work? If we fail to take care of the children
of those who died with our dead, and for the
dead and living, then indeed, are we un-
worthy Of heroic sacrifices, and have ''lost
