THE CIVIL SERVICE.
An Address to the President-elect.
GEN. GARFIELD IN FAVOR OF A FIXED
TENURE OF OFFICE.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 26.-A delegation from
the New York Independent Republican Asso-
citation to-day presented an address to Gen.
Garfield. The document aludes to Gen. Gar
fields record on the civil service question, to
the danger threatened our institutions by the
"spoils" system, and expresses the belief that
in the present state of public opinion Gen.
Garfield, ss President, may safely establish
rules for appointment of government employees
on the sole test of merit and to secure them
from summary dismissal upon the accession to
power of new political party.
Gen. Garfield In reply, after discussing the
civil service question, said he hoped to have
the cooperation of Congress in establishing a
legal basis for all routine appointments, so it
should not be in the power of any body, not
faithful apointee during his term of office, be
the term long or short.

BANK TAXATION.

An Important Decision by the q. S. Cir
cult Court.
NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-An important decis-
ion was rendered in the U. s. Circuit Court in
suit of the National Exchange Bank of Al
bany against the receiver of taxes of Albany
to restrain the collection of taxes imposed on
shares of the bank for 1879. The Court decid-
ed in favor of tn bank, on the ground that the
act Of 1866 is invalid and furnished no authori-
ty to the assessors to assess bank shares because
the act does aot permit the bank shareholders
to deduct their debts from assessments. The
Post says that the banks in this city will prob
ably Immediately take proceedings to secure a
full benefit of this decision. The amount of
taxes imposed upon bank shares in New York
city is more ST. 100000.
