TAXATION.

EDITOR BULLETIN: - find the
following in the 1dUertiSer's article
on "The years Trade and Taxes"
"The assessment upon real and per-
sonal property in 1885 is less than
either of the previous years"-re-
ferring to 1884 and 1SS3-''where-
fore it follows, that despite the
steady growth in wealth of the
country, there has been more tax
shirking this last assessment than
formerly" This / believe to be an
erroneous conclusion. In fact, | take
the 40rertiSer'S figures to prove the
reverse. If $266,O00 was fair
assessment for 1884, S254 900 is eX-
cessive for 1885; because the
shrinkage in value of taxable pro-
perty during the past year repre-
sents Il much greater difference than
the assessment figures indicate.
Considerable real estate that was
readily salable at given amount
in July of 1884 was seeking in vain
for purchasers in July of 1885 at
twenty-five percent less. The Id
oe,tiSeS is apparently forgetful of
this fact, erroneously assuming that
values had steadily increased during
the year. TAXoLoGY.

parent to the British throne, who is
now Al years old, is described to the

condescending or patronizing ap-
parent in his bearing, but with in
finite tact. grace, and dignity char
acterizing every salutation and

be portly, with thick, short neck,
round, full face, long body, and

Terrible, II True.

WILSON, n. c., July 3.-Willie Sans,
aged 6 years. son of farmer living near
here, to-day murdered his infant brother,
aged 3 months. The child had been
given him TO hold, and he went out in
the sun with it. He had some time ago
been taken to a child's funeral, and man
ifested great interest in its burial, which
he did not seem to understand. lie has
frequently prattled about it recently, and
asked many questions as to how the child
was got into the coffin, and when It would
come out. To day, when he reached the
grove, about three hundred yards from
his fathers home, he took small box,
which he had previously carried to the
spot, and after scooping out grave in
tho sand ty small brook, he placed the
infant in the box, nailed down tho top,
and buried it, even going through the
form of delivering u prayer and singing
the hymn. After he had filled the grave
he stamped on it, and slowly went back
home and told his mother what he had
done. Ho said it "was just like Mrs.
Arthur's little baby'r funeral" The
mother hastened TO the scene, the grave
was reopened. and the infant found dead,
with its right arm broken and its skull

contempt. Nor should the Supreme
Court be Increased with n view of per.
mitting divisions Of the Court to pass
on different classes oi cases. It is q
small portion Of causes that are appealed,
and though our present Court has been
hard worked, yet we have IL from the
best of authority that the work is grow.
Ing lighter, and the Court does not
desire an increase in its me.nbersip, as
they do not think such increase would
add to the efficiency Of our system
The greatest objection which we have,
however, to the views Of our contcmpo
rary, is to that portion in which it advo.
Gates the abolition Of the right to trial
by jury in all civil cases, except those
involving fraud, and the substitution of a
trial by one or more Judges. The sub.
ject Of fraud is one Of equity Jurisdiction,
and though the verdict Of juryman be
resotted to for the determination of
specific facts, the verdict is only to en-.
Tighten the conscience OF the Court and
does not bind the Court; therefore in
abolishing jury trial in all cases except
fraud, the Ncws and Courier would prac.
tically abolish jury trials in all civil
cases. But this change would not relieve
Of the necessity of summoning a jury,
for they would have to be present to try
questions of fraud, and the greater part
of tho expense would still be incurred.
We are old foey enough to favor the
jury systctn. 1t takes men from the
yiciunge, who know the character of the
witnesses, aud who can judge more cor.
rectly and justly between them than one
or two Judges could do. The upanmous
verdict is right, to prevent passion or
prejudice from sometimes getting control
Of the Jury. TO permit. Judge 70 de
eide questions of fact would cause the
Supreme Court to have jurisdiction OF
appeals upon the facts, or place the
rights of litiganb absolutely In the
hands of one man. This would be too
much power It would inevitably lead
to corruption and oppression. We want
rs little onc.man's power in this country
Us VIC can have, and instead of abolish
ing the jury system, we favor eleyaling
and improving it by having the law
properly enforced aud the juries taken
from the best men Of the country.
The laws delays are vexatious and
expensive, but they are better than a
system which would place the country
practically under one man power.

FOrenan's Fearful Fall.

Several days ago the C5astitution con.

there Is hope that he may survive fall
which 1t seems impossible for any human
being to have suffered without Instant
death.
Yesterday DR.. Willis F. WestmoreIand
returned from TallnlAh Falls, whore he
had been called to see young Foreman.
The doctor says that his injuries are very
severe, but are not necessarily fatal. His
right arm 10 broken and there are several
bruises oil over the head, face and body.
A severe wound was made 10 one of the
legs, which penetrated the bowels.
The patient Bnffers severely, but is
perfectly conscious and relates tho cir.
cumstanoes Of his accident. He was
walking on the edge of one of the LOFTY
precipices near Tallulah Falls, when a
stone turned and he was precipitated
down.
At every few feet of his frightful dc.
scent ho would strike ledge Of rock or
o tree which would break the force of his
fol! but would not stop him. Thus he
bad a succession of falls until he reached
the bottom of ravine nearly three hun.
dred feet below the point from whero he
fell. AT one place he hnd perpendicu.
lar fall Of fully thirty feet. BY the time
he had reached the bottom of the rayine

dead. For twenty.fou hours he Law
