procession was secured early in the morning.
The New York troops started up from the
steamer r. E. Lee, where they were quarter
ed, at 10 a. m, and were joined by the Bos-

companies from the interior of the State.
The music of the bands was the first intima-
ton that the festivities were commenced
The authorities issued proclamation pro-
hibiting the use of the streets to any kind of
vehicle and even horses and riders, except
such as were part of the procession. Last
night the officers of the Louisiana Guard
gave reception to the officers of the Seven
ty-First National Guard, the Spaulding
Guard of Buffalo, the Charlestown Cadets
and the National Lan6ers of Boston. The
men of the visiting companies attended the
theaters. The carnival procession was one
of great brilliancy and originality. The Wis
iting soldiers, after march through the
town, were stationed at points SO as to get
the last possible view of the procession.
The parade was one of the most magnif-
cent sights ever Witnessed in this city. The
royal pageant consisted of 222 hoats and IL

OF City Property to
Seizure tor Debt.
Plttsburg Post.


The decision of the supreme court
of the United States in the suit
against the city Tor rather taxing dis
trict) of Memphis, embodies impor-
tant principles of public policy. 1t
will be remembered that the city of
Memphis was disincorporated on the
ground that it was unable to pay its
debts. It was Invested of its mu~
nicipal charter and made a mere, tax
district of the state under the man-
agement of commissioner. But
the creditors brought suit against
the tax commissioner in the United
States circuit court and obtained a
decree compelling the applica
ton of all assets of the city,
including unpaid taxes, to
the payment Of their claims. The
court also appointed a receiver and
enjoined the tax commissioner from
interfering with the assets and taxes,
and it even went so far as to hold
that all private property in the dis
trict was liable for the debts of the
defunct municipality. The supreme
court undoes all this, and decides
adversely to the creditors on every
point involved. It decides, first +:
That what is usually regarded as
assets of a city-parks, public build
ings, water works, fire engines and
other similar property-is not sub
ject to execution to satisfy judg-
ments against the city for debt; that
they are public property ofwhich the
city is only trustee, and can not be
sold for the city's debt. Besides be-
ing public property, they are neces-
sary agents and adjuncts of govern
ment and for this reason, also, they
can not be seized. Second, the
court decides that the property OF
individual citizens is not liable for
the debts of the city. except through
regular taxation. The local laws in
some of the New England states i'm
poses this liability on private prop
erty, but the general law of this
country does not. Third, the court
holds that taxation is a Legislative
not a judicial function; the power tc
assess, levy and collect taxes comes
only from the legislature, and car
not be usurped by the courts mol
. be delegated by them to any officer
: such as receiver Or marshal.

A Child Bird Charmer.

There lives near Harrisburg, o.
in an out Of the way place in Hancock
county, about three miles west of Mt.
Blanchard-a very remarkable child
only years old, who seems to have
the power to charm birds at will.
Her mother first noticed this strange
fascination the child possesses about
year ago. The little girl was out
in the dooryard among bevy of
snowbirds, and when she spoke to
them they would come and light on
her, twittering with glee. On taking
them in her hands and stroking
them, the birds, instead of trying to
get away from their fair captor,
seemed to be highly pleased, and
when let loose would fly away a
short distance and Immediately re-
turn to the child again. She took
several of them into the house to
show her mother, who, thinking
she might hurt them, put them
out of doors, but no soon~
er was the door opened than the
birds few into the room again, lit
upon the girls head and began to
chirp. The birds remained about
the premises all winter, flying to the
little girl whenever the door opened
The parents of the child became
alarmed, believing that this strange
power was an i'll omen, and that the
much.dreaded visitor, death, was
about to visit their home. But death
did not come, and during the las1
summer the child had many pei
birds. The child handles the birds
so gently that a humming bird once
in her hands does not fail to return
Last winter bevy of birds kept hel
company, and she played with then
for hours at a time. Every morning
the birds fly to her window, AM
leave only when the sun sinks in tn
west. The parents of the little gin
: are poor, superstitious people, an
: have been reticent about the matte
, until lately, fearing that some grea
t calamity was about to befall them.

TIE present system Of holdin

The present system Of holding
the quarterly county court is worse
than a failure. We mean the plan
of dividing the1ljussices..c comprising
the court into two sections, making
to all intents and purposes two
courts, composed Of tno....sets Of
men, entertaining different views
perhaps, when the court should Be
one. 1t was intended as matter
of economy, paying only half the
Justices instead of all. But it il
the poorest sort of economy. The
legislature should provide remedy
We would favor. abolishing the
county court entirely, and turning
the business over to three or avt
commissioners, but if We must have
the county court, let it be full one
always composed Of the same se
of men, instead of alternating be
tween two sets Of men.
