AnImpOrtant Judgment.

The county attorney has been required TO
give his decision on the following case
--was indicted in 1880 for not having
paid his occupation tax. He pleaded guilty,
and the case was dismissed on the understand
ing that he forthwith paid the tax and the cost
OF proceedings. The costs were settled, but
the tax was not paid. In 1881 ne was indicted
for the like offence, and he then rendered the
tax and costs for the 1881 tax, which was re.
fused unless the 1880 tax was paid with it.
\ The county attorney rules that the man can
only be required to pay the tax and costs in
theNcase for which he is indicted, and that the
other tax is recoverable only by civil remedy.

really disappointment to the Times man, ii
was certainly not so to the great majority Of
the audience who fully appreciated the excel
lence of the wit and brilliancy of the music.
As to spelling the farce by turning it into an
opera, it is scarcely likely that two such mas
tiers of music and libretto, Arthur Sullivan. of
the Pinafore celebrity, and the editor of the
London Punch, Francis c. Burnand,- not
Burrand as the Times enormously calls him
would commit such blunder. Phe press OF
London, the English provinces, New York
and the northern American cities have almost
universally written of the opera in terms of the
hiehest commentator, and the public have
by their large attendances endorsed their
opinion. If the Times man was really pres
ent at the performance of the opera, and un-
derstood the libretto, it is difficult to under
stand, how he could honestly declare that the
sense of the dialogue was cut off by the intro
duction of songs. The Times has not the
reputation for honest or Brilliant criticism, and
has little effect on public opinion, but it is
difficult to understand how its critic can have
erred in such a common place matter as this. ="
Our correspondent makes further uncompli-
mentary remarks which are somewhat irrele-
want to the subject, and we therefore do not
care to publish them, but we are bound to
confirm the general excellence and popularity
of the opera and to bear testimony to the fact
that it is spoken of, on all sides, in terms of
general satisfaction.
