TAKING MORTGAGES, ETC.

In our comments on the Legislative
proceedings of Thursday last, we referred
to Mr.. George Richardson's allusion to
the power of the Legislative Assembly
in the matter of taxing mortgages, and
without intending it conveyed a wrong
impression Of that gentleman's position.
He did not, we understand, question the
power of the Legislature to pass any law
it might deem polite for the regulation
of the payment of taxes; but he thought
that in the case of the mortgage tax the
borrower would continue to pay it in the
shape OF high interest, despite any law
to the contrary, until cheap and abund-
ant capital seeking investment should
bring him relief. The main dependence
of the debtor class for relief, therefore,
lay in cheap money. AT the same time,
Mr. Richardson favored the taxation OF
mortgages as already provided for.
We are in unison of opinion with Mr..
Richardson upon these points, and we
likewise think that his suggestion for
Board of Equalization for each Island, or
for the entire Kingdom, an eminently
fair and practical one. The inequalities
of taxation amount to positive wrong
to individuals and fraud upon the
Government. Amy experienced assessor
will admit this. What should be done,
therefore, would be to enact a law pro-
viding for the constitution of Board OF
Equalization, to be composed OF expert
epced and independent men who will do
their duty fearlessly The effect of this
would be to add largely to the revenue
and establish an equitable basis of taxa

killing Fish in the Canary Isles.


One day when we were on the beach
peering about among the pools at low
tide, we saw three men come to the edge
and gaze intently into the water, point
ing at something therein with great
earnestness. A couple of them i'm
mediately stripped to their trousers and
waded to an outlying rock. Standing
thereon for a moment and shading their
eyes with their hands they again care
fully peered into the water. Then l saw
one of them throw something into the
sea. 1t was a small cartridge of dyna-
mite, which in a second exploded, cast
ing up the water violently. The cart
ridge had a fuse, which was lighted from
one of their cigarettes-for all were
smoking. Apparently every one smokes
all the time. Instantly after the ex-
plosiOn the men sprang into the waves
and swan theoretically thither. Then
we saw that they had flung the torpedo
into the midst of school of fish, and
that it had stunned many of them, who
were floating helplessly on the surface.
One man carried a cord, on which he
strung them through the gills as fast as
they were picked up; and thus they bag
ged in a few minutes fourteen nice fish
of five or six pounds weight each. The
men seemed as much at home in the
water as ducks.-Canary Isles Cor. De-
