AN IMPORTANT QUESTION.

A serious difficulty seems TO have con-
fronted the County Commissioners in the
way of making the usual levy for the cor
poration of Rockville This difficulty arises
by reason of construction placed upon the
decision of the Court of Appeals rendered
In case of the County Commissioners OF
Prince Georges county against the Com
missioners of Laurel, which will be found
elsewhere in this issue.
Although this decision was rendered on
the 1st of May last, it does not seem to have
been generally known, and its production
just at this time, when the County Commits
sioners are engaged in making the annual
levies for the county, is not only surprise
to many, but it has produced a most painful
anxiety with those who are interested In
the growth and progress of the town. The
march of improvement In this town for the
past few years has been rapid, and although
the corporate powers of the same were con-
siderably enlarged by the last Legislature,
yet under the provisions as therein embed
led, the Commissioners of the same are
without authority to increase the corporate
tax or borrow more than they have found
it already necessary TO borrow in order to
meet those exigencies that attend the i'm
provement of any growing corporation.
| 1t is understood that all other incorporat
ed towns in the county are affected in the
same manner by the decision in the case re-
lerred to. The County Commissioners have
the matter under consideration and will
reach conclusion before the levy has been
completed
