The village Of Rabasso is almost COM

Corr. Of the New Orleans Times Democrat
The great stone was with difficulty trans
ferred to the yard of the university, where it
remained until 1873, when, after its numerous
vicissitudcs il found final resting place in
the patio of the National museum. At first
sight this unCOuth monster seems an insight
" mass of hands and claws, in the midst of
which a deaths head appears with ghastly
prominence ON n closer examination We
find that the statue represents a woman in
stead of face she has the head Of a serpent,
the folds of which extend around the body,
while the dress j. formed Of innumeraDle
snakes. She is still further adorned Ivy
necklace OF hands, and AT her grdle, in front
and behind, she wears a skull the feet,
rudcly and clmmsily carved. terminate in
huge claws and at the base Of the statue is
mark which indicates some affinity with the
god of death.
This complex deity, composed OF 50 many
heterogeneous elements, has been the con-
stant wonder of tine vulgar and the subject Of
endless speculation among the learned. Tho
commonly received belief is that the figure
is the persOniticatiOn Of the dread HuitZil-
pochtli, the Aztec Mars, bat those initiated
into the mysteries of archaeology reject this
hypothesis, and dispute as to whether it be
the Goddess Ieoyoamiqui, who was supposed
to receive the souls Of warriors killed in
battle, the latter being sent to dwell for y
season in the sun, where they wcTe in the
process of time. transformed into humming
birds; or tOatliCuo, the great earth GODDESS.
''rhe latter was considered the prOgcnitrX
of mankind; she was wOrshipped in the
grand temple OF the City of Mexico, in part
of the building called Atlanlco; a woman
was sacrificed To her every year in the IZacu-
ALI, which means the place of snakes. The
number Ofhands on the statue are symbols of
the creative power OF the earth: the skull or
nament ON the waistbelt represents the deity
of death, as she was supposed TO receive the
bodies of all who died, and keep them in her
bosom till the day of resurrection. The teeth
Of TlalOc, the god of the waters, are intro
duced as signifynP that the greater deities of
earth, lite, creator and fire were thought to
repose on water and the feet of these dcitcs
are generally Urnamentcd with shells Of tho
sea-
II the above theory hc true with regard to
the curious and grotcsque image that stands
guard over tho sacrificial stone, il seems
strangely appropriate that after. all the
snporstitious and benightcd worship paid to
the Aztec Cybcle, she should at last find her
temple within the halls of science, and that
instead of the sanguinary rites that formerly
dotiled her altars there should now he only
the peaceful votive offerings of learning and
of genius.

LANCASTER, JANUARY %, 1855.
A Direct Contradiction.

Some people are trying to reconcile The
refusal of the Pennsylvania railroad direc-
tors to ioin with the anthracite coal COM
panies in their agreement to divide the pro
duction of the year among them in liked
proportions, with the same Pennsylvania
railroad directors agreement with the BAL
timore & Ohio railroad company to divide
the bituminous coal production between
them in fixed proportions.
1t will be remembered that the Penn
sylvania directors have resolved that
the interests of the company and the pub
lie demand that they shall place no restrtc-
tions upon trade, and that they therefore
refused to agree with the anthracite compa-
MES upon an allotment to each mining and
carrying company Of its proportionate
part of the calculated anthracite con-
sumption of the year. This refusal
is not based upon the claim that
the Pennsylvania is not given its fair
proportion, but is put upon the broad
ground that such an agreement is sviolat!v
Of public and business policy.
1tcertainly is not easy TO discoverthe differ
ence between the anthracite agreement
which the Pennsylvania rejects and the btu
minous compact it accepts, so far rs the pol
ey proclaimed by the directors isconcerned.
The distinction claimed between the two
cases is that the anthracite companies re-
strict the total production Of the compan-
les in the pool to certain amount, while the
parties to the bituminous pool do not re.
strict the total production, but only agree
to supply the market in fixed proportions
But clearly this is distinction without
a difference, inasmuch as the limit
Fixed by the anthracite pool is that which
they calculate TO be the total consumption
Of the coming year and il this consump-
ton proves to be greater, they viii he tie.
lighted exceedingly and will raise the limit
Of production accordingly, quicker than
anyone can say Jack Robinson. Theil
agreement Is simply to supply what tht
market requires more than this the btu
mious companies will not want to supply
It would not be wise business policy
The combination in each fuel will give tn,
market all it will take at their prices. Tn,
aim Of each is TO keep up prices by prevent
ing the over-supply which competition vii
produce, and to give TO each member hi
fair allotment Of the plunder The Penn
sylvania if it agrees with the Baltimore 4
Ohio to divide the supply of the bituminou'
market between them in fixed proportions
certainly will do just what its board o
directors have declared to be against il
policy and that of the public. There il
no explaining away of the contradiction

The Supreme Courts Differ.

The supreme court of Pennsylvania and
the court of appeals of New York have de-
cided oppositely question of great impor-
tance to the states The state treasurer Of
Pennsylvania says that the treasury of the
statesuffers severely from the decision of the
supreme court in the case of the common
wealth against the Pennsylvania coal com
pany to the effect that the law taxing the
capital Of PENNSYLVANIA corporations auth
orizes only the collection of the tax upon
SO much of the capital as is invested and
represented by property in the state, and
that SO much of the capital as is represented
in property outside the state is not taxed
by the state.
/ The court Of appeals Of New York, in
the case Of the state against the Western
Union Telegraph company. which was y
suit to collect the tax levied upon the
capital Of the company, under a law similar
10 that of Pennsylvania, has Just decided
that the tax is collectable upon the whole
capital stock of the company, wherever
invested.
There may be difference in the word
ing of the statutes of the two states,
which will warrant the difference IN con-
struction but as we understand the mat
ter, there is no such difference. Both taxes
are laid upon the capital stock Of corpora
tons, The New York court holds that
this is a tax upon the franchise and not
upon the property, and the PENNSYLVANIA
court holds the opposite.
1t is noteworthy that the decision of the
Pennsylvania supreme court is in tne in
terest of the corporations, in accord with
the established tendency of the opinions
Of this court for some time past. Eyi-
IDENTIFY the legislature needs TO look
into the subject 10 see whether
New York shall collect tax upon the cap
i,al Of her corporations invested in Penn
sylyania, while Pennsylvania hand is
stayed in collecting tax upon that of her
corporations invested in New York.

IL Works Both Ways.

General Secretary John jarrett in his
annual address to the American Tin Plate
association, sets forth with emphasis that
we imported last year S,ls2.s worth Of
tin plates, the production Of which in this
country he says would employ over 6s 900
men, and add TO the support Of over 500
900 Of our population.
Mr. Jarrett would have the conclusion
drawn no doubt that high tariff on plates.
preventing their importation, would be ana
unqualified benefit resulting in giving
work TO many unemployed people, while it
effected no injury 10 offset this. This is
what the logieians call a "aoa Seqait,sr.
There are many millions of people in this
country affected by the price Of tin and
hundreds OF thousands of handworkers
employed in industries which would be
seriously crippled il not eiltirely paralyzed
by<. material increase in the price Of tin.

1t is a grave question whether they should
be imperiled to establish new and minor
industry.
The tariff question, its high protective
advocates must concede, has two sides.
Private interests must yield to popular
rights. Here and there, undoubtedly
a new industry could be established by
levying new and higher duties but the
general line of tariff legislation henceforth
must be in cutting down duties and en-
larging the free list. What the country
wants is new markets rather than new in
duStries

TuE amount of work which is expected
from the New York fire department may he
roughly guessed at when it is stated that dur
ing the last three years there have been
G,57S fires in that city. This is an average Of
about six every day. And yet of all these
fires only lis were permitted to extend TO
other buildings and but 40 buildings were
destroyed. This is great showing for fire
department, and vet our own city has been
proportionately fortunate in its fiery vista
tions. Since the Inquirer building burned
fow years ago, there has been no fire of any
consequence within the city limits, and those
that have originated were promptly exiting
uished. The wonder now is how Lancaster
so long dispensed with this most necessary
department of the city government
