VERMONT'S TAX LAW.

The second years trial of the Iron Clad
tax law of Vermont is at hand. Assessors
will be chosen throughout the State at the
annual town meetings on the first Tuesday of
March. This law is a very searching one.
1t aims to tax every form of property which
can be discovered, and it provides stringent
measures for discovering it. Every taxpayer
is required to furnish list of his property,
including debts due, mortgages, stocks,
bonds and other securities. The list must be
verified by an iron clad" OATH and one of
the penalties for false return is the levy of
tax twice the sum which otherwise would
be lawfully due. The assessors also are
obliged to take iron clad'' oaths, and are
punished as for perjury upon failing to per-
form their duties. The immediate outcome
of this new and energetic system is that in
the first year of the operation of the law the
assessed valuation has increased from 800, =
100000 to $163, 762, 900. The increase in
personal property, which the owner could
more readily conceal under the old system, is
$31, 322, OOO but the increase in real prop
erty, which could not be hidden, and which
the assessors must nave unQerEalueQ Is pol,
$4,000.
The law, Notwithstanding its severity, ap-
pears to have been faithfully complied with
all over the State. The only assessors who
are known to have failed in their duty are
those of the towns of Hinesburg and Willis
ton. They are charged with having assessed
certain property at less than its cash value.
They have been indicted for perjury and will
be tried at the coming April term of the
court A number of rich men in all parts of
the State refused to furnish lists of their
property, and their taxes were doubled, ac-
cording to law. They claim that in this re-
spect the law is unconstitutional and the
question will be argued at the general term
of the State Supreme Court next October.
One good result of the law has been that
taxes were lower last year than for two gen.
erations past, but its workings have not been
uniformly pleasing For instance, Burling
ton last year lad an assessed valuation of
SIS, 900, 600, but three estates, aggregating
$500, 900, have been driven outside the city
Or State, and the total sum that will, in one
way and another, be taken from the tax list
will probably be not less than $1,000, 900.
The same state of affairs exists in other
places The further operation of the law
will be watched with much interest by those
interested in the subject of taxation.

The Truthful Pilot.
From the vicksburg Herald. ]


The passenger, who was going down the
big river for the fizst time in his life, secured
permission to climb mp beside the pilot, q
grim old grayback who never told lie in his
life.
MANY alIieators in this river ?" inquired
the stranger. after a look around.
mot so many now, since they got to shoot
in 'em for their hides and taller, !" was the
reply.
Used to be lots, eh ~
"I don't want to tell you about ien, stran-

"Why ~
Cause you'd think was alvin to you,
and that's sumthin' 1 never do. I kin cheat
at keerds, drink whiskey, or chaw poor ter

stranger.
"And I've counted 3, 459 of 'em on one

big to tell, but government surveyor was
aboard, and he checked EN- of as 1 called
out"
81 haven't the least doubt of it." said the
passenger, as he heaved a sigh.
I'm glad o. that, stranger. Some fellers
would think was liar when I'm telling the
solemn truth. This used to be a paradise for
alligators, and they were so thick that the
wheels of the boat killed an average of forty
nine to the mile !"

True as Gospel, mister! used to almost
feel sorry for the cussed brutes. cause
they'd cry out cen most like human being.
We killed lots of EN-, as said, and We hurt

True as you live, he did. 1 don't 'spect
I'll ever see another such a kind, Christian
man. And the alhgators got to know the
Nancy Jane, and to know Captain Tom, and
they'd swim out and rub their tails agin the
boat an purr like cats, an look up and try
to smile ~
"They would ?'
Solemn truth, stranger! And once when
we grounded on bar, with opposition
boat right behind, the alligators gathered
around, got under her stern, and bumped
her clean over the bar by grand push It
looks like big story, but never told lie
yet, and never shall I wouldn't lie for
all the money you could put aboard this
boat
There was painful pause, and after
while the pilot continued:
''Our ingines ein out once, and crowd of
alligators took a tow line and hauled as for
ty-ive miles up stream to Nicksburg :"
They did2''
"And when the news got along the river
that Captain Tom was dead, every alligator
in the river daubed his left ear with mud asa

The passenger left the Pilos-house with
the remark that he didn't doubt the state

and replied
"Tbsr's one thing 1 won't do fer love nor

prizes seven marauding vessels and their
crews of sixty men. Some of these vessels
made haste to flee from the wrath of Virginia
and were not captured till they had almost
reached the capes. Others surrendered at
the first gun and hauled down their colors'
Some of the vessels and men belonged to New
York, and some were Virginia vessels used in
open violation of Virginia law. The crafts
are forfeit to the State, and these men are
amenable to fine and imprisonment. 1t is
thought the governor will be content to take
the vessels for the State, and allow the cap
tives to plead guilty, and then enter nolles in
their cases.

The law passed by the Legislature of this
State in 1881, imposing license fee on all
peddlers, was repealed last week on the
ground of it's unconstitutionality. But some
restriction is to be placed upon pack-peddlers
for the protection of the rights of merchants
who pay taxes in the towns and very naturally
object to having their trade interfered with
by peddlers who pay no taxes. The Judiciary
committee has reported bill which fully
meets the case, and at the same time is not
open, it is believed, to the objection of I'M
constitutionality. This bill imposes alicense
fee of SIS upon all peddlers excepting those
selling provisions or produce grown in the
United States. The object of this exemption
is to avoid interference with the many far
mers who go into town to sell butter, vege-
tables, etc., from house to house. 1t is fur
Their provided in the bill that the selectmen
of any town may, at their discretion, abate
any license, and that any town may vote that
the law shall not be operative within its
limits

married the second time before he died, and
leave his wife that he married the second
time, and then was to die and leave will,
and was to make the will before he died, and
then die, could his second wife's children,
after the will was made, come in for their
full share of his property if he bought $50
acres of land after he made this will? And
does it make any difference to his second
wife's children whether the first wife's chill
dren, which were born before he married
the second time, come in for their share of
his personal property which he had before
he died ?''

The British troops in ireland do not like
the work they have to do, and there is there
fore a great deal of desertion among them.
Three men belonging to the Thirty-frst
Light Infantry, charged with DESERVING from
the Buttevant barracks, County Cork, told the
magistrates that they were no longer going
to remain in ireland to be pelted with brick
bats, and that every facility was afforded
them outside of the barracks for obtaining
change of clothing and getting away by
steamer. The commanding officer at Linn
erick warned the magistracy that his men
would fire if pelted or annoyed by the mob.
