cur EAt Of Revenue.

Speaker Bates bill in which the iut X d.
ptGieilcy is shown Of IA 100 rapid rcduc-
tioh of the sac debt, if passed would
be a great relief to the taxed business
Industries o. the State and especially
OF This city. Some six hundred thous,
and dollars due the State by Railroads
mostly IN Sussex County and secured
to the state by first mortgages have
usually been reckoued as IL part of the
state debt. iDednrt this from the total
debt proper and it III pe seen that very
little tate debt remains, and as the
taxes collected from the Safe are more
than sufficient to pay thu interest, MIR.
Bate proposes that the taxes on manu-
factories and industrie, shall be reduced
in that ratio. The object Of Mr.. Bates
bill is a good one, but it is IL question
whether it would be expedient to pass
the bill provided the Legislaf ure would
put the excess in taxes where it could
do the most good We do not wish to be
looked upon as advocates Of high taxes
hu the people of Delaware have become
used to these taxes, and if the money
they pay was pat to u good use there
woulG be less objection to paying them.
With the taxes that are paid Delaware
should ltot lag behind in many needed
reforms. If this excess in revenue was
applied TO the purposes Of education,
there would be but little complaint on
the part of the enterprisng manuiac-
turers and merchants who pay it. From
year TO Year is the old complaint that
education has made but little progress ;
that properly qualified teachers cannot
be procured to teach our public schools
and that in some sections the school
terra scarcely exceeds four months III Il

New York Sun.
The Society for the Prevention OF
Cruelty to Animals has begun a criminal
prosecution against Peter Duvernoy, a
French cook attached to the Lotus club,
for having cut off the tail of SlOO cat
with cleaver.
The cat appears to have been in the
habit of coming into the club kitchen with
predatory intent. On Friday, being fish
day, there were mackerel in tho kitchen.
The cat came in and smelt of q mackerel.
This displeased the cook, who drove her
away and audibly threatened her with
vengeance dire if she returned. On Satur-
day the cat again intruded, and in driving
her out the cook struck blow at her re-
treating form with his cleaver. which
deprived her of portion of her tail.
If man tries to steal from your water
melon patch and you pepper him all over
with small shot, people think you have
done rather smart thing: If you are
travelling on Long Island Sound and
carelessly kill an occupant of the
same stateroom uuder the impress
sion that he is a burglar it is mat
ter of no great consequence. But if you
happen to hurt a cat that persistentiy
makes raids upon your larder, the gravity
of the offence cannot be overlooked by the
officers of the law.
Many a man who has wounded or per-
haps slain a fellow man walks the streets
of New York scot free, but a cook who has
made a cat bobtailed must 60 to prison.
