The Garfield and Arthur Banner

That handsome and magnificent
campaign banner, which has been ex-
pected for some time, was received by
express from the maker, G. Monks,
New York, yesterday, and, under the
superintendence of Mr.. John G. Houk,
was flung to the breeze, across Gay
s.re.t, from the opera to the Lamar
house, in front Of "Republican Head
quarters." It is certainly beautiful
and costly piece of work, and eclipses
by far anything ever put sfloa in a
political campaign in this part OF the
country.
The dimensions are 20x30 feet. The
body is net work. Ia each OF the upo
psr corners appears large and splendid
oil paintings Of Garfield aud Arthur,
much larger than life siza. Between
the pictures is strip lettered "Onr
Ticket" in bold and attractive letters,
aud below this is four more bars con-
tanning, with equally bold and at
tractive le teriDg, the names OF Gen.
Garfield and Gen. Arthur, candidates
for president aud vice pres dent, Al
win Hawkins, for governor, and l.. L.
Houk, for congress. The por'I ats and
lettering show off splendidly, attract
universal attention., and can be dis
tipguished for several sqaare4 Ii
nresents The same appearance on
either side is oiled and made weather
proof.
This bauLet is w made stationary
ia its p sition where il will remain
the pride of all true heated republi-
cane, during the campaign, and unit
the proud bird of victory perches upor
its folds, ere the ides of November
have flown.

States let our Legislature place the
collection of all taxes Estate, County
and MunieipaD in the hand of one
officer, such collection to be made at
such times and in such instaluents as
may be most convenient to the tax
payer, with a. penalty for non-payment,
but a0hose inaiction shall be abso-
lutelg sure; for unless the pe1alty,
whatever it be, shall be strictly en-
forced and carried out, any sys.
tenn must fail of its object. ~
Such method would involve the
necessity of altering the limits Of the
present State fiscal year, which be.
gins with November but conformity
to the calendar year would, We i'm
agine, be advantageous rather thcn
otherwise. >...'.r|; ;..;-,.-,. .
The collection Of all taxes by one
officer would also obviate the ridicu-
lous spectacle of municipal govern
nent solemply prescribing by ordi-
nance a penalty Of fifteen or twenty
per cent. for nou-payment Of taxes,
and then by subsequent ordinance or
resolution reVokiDg such penalty.
With the Inauguration of such a
system, a single aggregate tax to be
collected by one officer, and the posi-
tue infictlon Of the penalty for the
non payment Of the tar, whatever
that penalty may be, the ghost Of de-
liDquents will vanish, and we shall
see the revenues of State and county
and city increased and rendered capa-
bic of definite calculation, besides the
advantages resulting therefrom in the
general transfer Of property.

THE SABBATH.

Oh! heart of all the week!
Whence strength and gladness flow
To beautify all other days,
And make their graces grow;
In thee is full supply
Of lfe-blood for the seven,
Thy healthful pulses lift the week
Nearer toGod and heaven,
Oh, fount Of pure delight!
From thee such sparkling streams
Gush through the dryest, dullest day,
That fair aud bright it seems.
Thou warterest al the days,
Thou freshest of the seven!
And drawest from unfailing springs
Which have their source in heaven.
Oh, glorious sun Of days?
Thy glad and steady light
Shines down the vista of the week,
Through morning, noon and night.
No day so dark and sad
Though darkest of the seven
But thou csnst shed through all its hour
The radiance of heaven.
. Oh, heart Of all the week!
Oh, fount so fresh and free!
Oh, glorious sun Of all the days!
How cling our souls 10 thee!
Cheer still our earthly way
Each day among the seven,
And let us never lose thy light,
But in the light of heaven.

4 PRETTY GAME.

On the porch of Mr.. Everson's
6ue residence in NJ, on a
beautiful evening, about sunset,
stood Julia Everson, a beautiful
young lady, with deep blue, lus-
strous eyes, and Francis Rowley,
a tall handsome young man, his
face glowing with health and his
department that Of . perfect gen.
tleman.
Your father said Francis, ad-
dressing Julia, lis as determined
as ever, [ suppose, about this af-
fair of-of the marriage {? His
look was averted from her while
he pronounced the words.
'Determined!' Julia Everson ex-
claimed ; why papa is SO bent
upon my becoming Mrs. Opjohn
that he would die Of rage, [ think,
were my resolution known to
him
'And that resolution is, Julia
sTo give Mr.. Upjohn plainly to
understand that the times we live
in are not those which tolerate
the afiancing Of two children in
their cradles merely because
their parents happen to be friends.
Besides this George Upjohn has
the manners of q regular clod, and
has passed his whole life in some
obscure place out West. Do you
believe in proverbs, Francis p
why do you ask?
Because I do julia Everson's
face wore a look of very firm de-

To what particular proverb dc

to keep her resolution.
You mean then Julia BY com.
ing the nightly eloquent over

and get pooh-poohed for your
palms, she replied, with a slight
laugh. No, I mean something

order; without them it is licentious.
ness, aud civilization is rolled back.
Intelligence, property and character
should control the government; if ig-
norance and venality are installed into
power the ruin Of ell will BE the re-
suit. fhe government should protect
all Of its citizens everywhere in all
their rights and privileges. 1t should
be its glory to protect even the poor.
est under its flag. Its Jaws should be
enforced alike against all, aud nothing
is So wholesome as the certainty
of their. enforcement. This all good
men should help to do. 1.-THE laws
prove hard or unjust let them be re.
pealed. Hayes, upon the whole, has
made good President.
Garfield is man of shining talents,
vast erudition and high cultivation.
He made himself. He has travelled
the road and knows all of its ins and
outs, from the poor boy with wild
owed mother to the last round Of the
ladder Of fame in this couptry} to
which any man: can mount. No man
who obeys the laws of the country
need fear him. There? is DO reason
why he should not make an excellent
President. No man is more familiar
with the history and laws of the coup-
try than he is. III mistake not, you
in an editorial on the heels Of his
nomination congratulated the country
that we would have good President

To the Editors of The NeWbewy
Herald It is the duty of every MEM
ber of the General Assembly to con-
slider what, if any, defects there may
be in the existing public laws with
the view to remedy them by appro-
pirate legislation. One among the
greatest aud most patent Of such de-
fects is in the system of assessment
and taxation. The present inquiry,
however is directed to the defects in
the system of taxation only, or rather
in the mode Of collecting taxes.
A casual inspection of the tax du-
plicates will show of how large a por-,
ton Of her revenue the State is an
nually deprived by the failure Of tax
payers to comply With their obliga-
sions; and this evil increases from
year to year. 1t is an evil which can
be accounted for in but one way, viz
that the State either cannot or will
| not enforce the payment of the taxes
Every year and sometimes more
than once in the year, We see official
advertisements of the sale of long lists
of property, which yield no fruit to
the State, and, in fact, only serve to
increase the public expenses, the
State invariably forfeiting the pro-
perty to herself and leaving it in the
possession and enjoyment of the delin-
quent, while increasing the expenses
incident to such, sales. 1t must be
admitted, then, that such sales have
been and are nullities, until at last
many,who do not consc;entlously feel
their obligations and are actuated by
other motives, pay no taxes at all, conf
dent that after the lapse of years the
State will say to them, 'ifyou pay one
or tUo yeaas' tax We reuit all arrears,
and yet enjoying along with others
who have paid all their taxes the ben
e6ts of the government whose citizens
they are and whose interests are their
interests.
If this condition Of things be suf-
fered to remain unchanged the result
r,ust be general decentralization among
the people in respect 20 the payment
of taxes and eventual bankruptcy of
the State. Decentralization in one
respect will inevitably lead to demoral-
izatiou in others.
We now narrow our inquiry down
to the question Of taxation in incor-
porated towns or cities, which are in;
vested by the State with a power of
taxation within themselves for their
corporate purposes. Here an addi-
tional difficulty presents itself, and
that is the complication arising from
conflict of the respective liens of
State and city; as for example, 3
lien attaches for non-payment of taxes
due the one, which may be quickly
followed by the others lien attaching,
to be augmented, perhaps by an addi-
tional lien in favor Of the first for a
subsequent non-paymeut. If not other.
wise an evil, this certainly is an o.
stacle in the transfer Of property. We
do not say that the present system
cannot by any possibility be worked
harmoDiously, but we do say that it is
so enyolved and cumbrous as to rea-
der its efficiency a practical imposs!-
bility.
! Now is there no remedy go i
