METROPOLITAN TAXES

BROWNE'S."

are not a good

thing for a small city. The Council wjpely bears this fact in mind. iti

FOWLER, of Tennessee, unites with Ross, of Kansas—both of impeachment notorietv—in the "Liberal" movement.

THE Fort Scott Monilor" says that there never wag a Senator elected from Kansas without bribery, except Jrar LAKE.

THE "Journal's" temper is now as balmy as a May morning, and it is behaving itself with commendable pretli-

THE "Golden Age" moralizes at considerable length over the death of the "Revolution" newspaper. Its infancy was watched over and nourished by the congenial trio, Mrs. STANTON, SUSAN B. ANTHONY, and GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN, and TNEODORE TII/TON seems to think the latter caused its death.

A SEDALIA (Mo.) correspondent of the New York "Times," who was a delegate to the late Missouri Republican Convention, says: "The Republican party in Missouri is united, compact, thoroughly organized, and eager for the defection of SOHURZ, GRATZ, BROWN & Co., who for two years past have been in secret alliance with the Democracy."

THE Indianapolis "News" thinks "the coal road will have fewer advocates than ever when the people go up to the City Treasurer's office to pay their, taxes. One dollar and seventy-four and one-third cents on the hundred is pretty steep, but add another dollar, perhaps two, to pay the interest on coal road bonds and to make up a probable deficit, and the holders of city property will begin to Bell out very fast and move out into the country, or lo some other cities, where the taxes will not eat up all the profits."

THE Indianapolis "Journal" irreverently remarks that "it must be humiliating to Mr. HENDRICKS to be compelled to play end man for the DAVIS-PARKER 'combination, and perform for the third time his celebrated 'walk around' in an unsuccessful canvass for Governor of Indiana. Mr. HENDRICKS is getting pretty well along in years, and it is cruel to task his waning energies with such heavy and fruitless labors. How chopfallen he must be when he is compelled to exchange the dignified reticence of a Presidential candidate for another hot summer's work with the Democratic roustabouts of Indiana. Trot the old nag out, gentlemen! we are anxious to compare his military record with General

IT IS announced that the the Washington colored people intend to hold a mass meeting to pass resolution.* calling on the Philadelphia Convention to consider the claims of the colored men for the Vice Presidency, and to demand that the Republican party shall accept the standard of Mr. SUMNER'S bill for civil rights. The Chicago "Journal" thinks, if this is so, they intend to make fools of them' selves. It would be the greatest con ceivable calamity to the negroes to have the Republican party break itself upon the wheel of color prejudice. Nothing would please the Democracy more than for the Republican party to go into the ampaign with the old negro issue still at the front. That battle has been faught and won.

The Sales of Arms Debate. From the Providence Journal.] Isn't it pitiable? An attack has been made in the Senate on the President, the Secretary of the Treasury and the Secretary of War. It had been heralded for months it was announced as something to fall on the Administration with a terrible force, with a crushing weight that would carry-everything before it. It came, a bulky and formidable preamble, ending with a resolution of inquiry the preamble asserting all that the resolution proposed to investigate The majority offer to pass the resolution without a word of debate, if the offensive preamble, for which they could not vote, were omitted. This was not what was wanted not investigation, but speech making was the purpose of the movement. So the preamble with all its gratuitous assertions was insisted upon. A few sturdy blows knocked it to pieces, and the movers did not stop to pick up the chips, but abandoned it, and asked to withdraw it. But since the statements had been made and insisted on, the majority thought that the parties accused were entitled to a vote on them, and permission was not given to withdraw.

And after talking a fortnight on the question, it is narrowed down to this. Can the law authorizing the Secretary of War to sell the arms that were unsuitable for service be so construed as to convict the chief of ordnance of a technical violation of it? Might not some of the arms that were sold have been repaired and made serviceable? On the whole, did he not make a mistake in the exercise of the discretion conferred on him by Congress? It is not pretended that he could have had any improper motive in the selection which he made of arms for the market. The charge of a discrepancy between the War and Treasury Departments was disproved by the figures on the very page from which the materials oiit of which it was made had been collected it was abandoned by those who had, with so much flourish, intro duced it. It did not stand an hour's discussion. It was a pricked bubble.

The other branch of the inquiry is reduced to a painful effort to convict our own government of malfeasance towards another power that has made no complaint of its action to prove by the testimony of foreign witnesses that our govern* nment was not sufficiently careful in the sale of arms, made in the open market, by public advertisement, and in full view

of .agents of the government, that never considered itself wronged, till many months afterwards, on the strength of a report in a French newspaper, that France had been cheated by its own agents, the highest officials of the United States are arraigned before the Senate.

Great Depression in Real Estate—Depreciation in Value—Rents Falling and Taxes Bising—Failure of Savings Banks.

T" fE T&-

Letter to the Rochester Democrat ana Chrom'clc.] Property holders are experiencing the troubles peculiar to this class. A few years ago there seemed to be no end to the advance in rents. I have hnown whole blocks of houses renting for §3,000 per annum, to which §1,000 was added, and paid readily, but now the figure is depressed to a corresponding degree. The question, indeed, is a trying one how rent can be paid at all. The almost universal complaint among merchants is, "Our business is so cut up that it does not pay," and many old established men would abandon trade if there was any other field to enter. There has been an attempt to sell real estate this season by the usual method of auction, but the failure has been very apparent. An auctioneer recently remarked, "Nine-tenths of all the property we have offered this season has been bid in by the owners." As an illustration of the market, I may say that I know a house and lot which was considered a bargain two years ago at 514,000, the price then paid for it, and which has just been sold again tor $12,000. Another illustration is found in the fact that a friend, who is esteemed a good judge of property, was called to fix a value on a house in "the Sixth avenue. "The way the market is now going," said he, "the place js worth $20,000." "Twenty thousand!" was the reply of the astonished owner, "why, it cost me more than $30,000."" I know an experienced business man who owns a large amount of real estate in which he has invested about $60,000. He has a small amount paid on each house, the remainder being secured by mortgage. If this property should be sold at present, its owner would lose his entire investment. In contrast with the depression is the prospect of an increase of taxes. Dropping into the receiver's office, I was informed that they would be one-quarter higher than they were last year. 1 presume that this is due to the fact that the ring wasted enormous sums and left the city debts standing. Having been taxed to enable Sweeny, Hall, Tweed and Connolly to embezzle millions, we are now to be taxed in order to pay the bills which they contracted. This is a hard prospect to real estate holders in view of declining rents, the latter having been generally reduccd from ten to thirty per cent, this spring. It is feared that the depression will last for several years, and at any rate it must remain until business improves. Another very remarkable fact is that most of the real estate both in town and country is mortgaged. Almost everybody seems to be in debt, and it is a very rare thing when property is clear. I heard a solid and judicious business man remark, "I have got three houses and there is not a piece of paper on any of them." It was no small boast for these times, especially as it was made by a mechanic who commenced without a penny. The failure of the savings banks has stopped the payment of many mortgages, for they held the deposits which had been cherished and increased for the purpose of applying in this manner as soon as the required amount should be reached. But ieeling ia the first ward is sufficient to mob

Roche or Selmes, but Hank Smith has shown his. good will by offering $50,000 to assist in paying the deficit created by the first mentioned. Mr. Smith was unfortunate in his associates, and his crowd of engagements prevented his close in spection of the bank operations. He should have avoided accepting the presidency of an institutian which he did not control. From my acquaintance with Mr. Smith I cannot believe that he would pervert the bank funds from their legiti mate end. It is highly possible that an attempt will be made to procure legislative exemption of mortgages from taxation. This measure would at once remove these petty savings, banks and leave the business in the hands of a few strong institutions. At present, while mortgages in the hands of private parties are taxable, those held by savings banks are exempt. This difference is unreasonable and unjust, and has given a start to these institutions whose failure has created such excitement and distress.

A Pestilential Epidemic in Persia— Rerisitation of an Aucient Scourge.

Constantinople (January the London Times.]

31) Correspondence of

When the report of the outbreak of a pestilential epidemic in Persia, near the Turkish frontiers, reached Constantino pie, notwithstanding the assurances given by the Persian Government to the effect that the epidemic was not the plague, the Ottoman Sanitary Department, while recommending the greatest vigilance to the sanitary officers at the frontiers, hastened to dispatch Dr. Castaldi, the Ottoman sanitary delegate attached to the Turkish Embassy at Teheran, to the spot to inquire into the nature of the disease. Dr. Castaldi has now sent in his report, which is most carefully drawn up, and contains most valuable information. In his opinion, there cannot be any doubt on the character of the disease which has made its appearance in the Persian Kurdistan. The malady is characterized by a strong fever, accompanied by typhus symptoms, with the appearance of i*ubos under the arms, in the groins, and in the neck, of carbuncles in various parts of the body, and of spots scattered over the whole surface of the skin it carries the sufferer off quickly, attacking several houses in one place and several persons in the same fami' -, and transmits itself from an infected place to a healthy one. Such a malady, says Dr. Castaldi, cannot be anything but the Eastern plague of former times. According to the report, it is during the last winter that the plague appeared in the distict of Mukry, in the Aderbinjan, in two villages situated a short distance from each other, and called Djoumouchan and Arbanouz. These villages have been completely depopulated, only seven or eight persons having been spared by the scourge. Unable to trace the existence of the plague beyond the district of Mukry, Dr. Castaldi feels at a loss to point out the causes which have produced the epidemic, for the district is not only the healthiest in all Persia, but has escaped from the famine which has so cruelly visited and continuis to visit the other parts of that Kingdom. If an outbreak of the plague, says Dr. Castaldi, was anywhere to be apprehended, it would be surely in the Khorassan and in Fars, where the famine made such frightful ravages, where men enough could not be found to inter the dead bodies left unburied in the streets and in the bazars, and where parents sold their children tor a few francs, to save them from starvation and provide themselves with a little bread. Dr. Castaldi therefore inclines to think that the plague in the Persian Kurdistan should be attributed to the excessive dryness and to the cattle disease, which the district of Mukry shared in common with the rest of Persia. HuTopinion on this point, however, is not admittedjhere by the health authorities. They maintain that the plague in Persia is the consequence of the terrible famine which prevailed in that country, and must have been imported into the district of Mukry from other quarters in the interior. They, moreover, under

stand that Dr. Castaldi has been nnable to trace the epidemic further in the interior for getting at the truth in Persia is next to impossible, and the Government itself is generally only made acquainted with the epidemic existing on its territory through the authorities of the bordering countries. It was the Ottoman Sanitary Department that first intimated the existence of the plague in the Kurdistan to the Persian Government. The mortality caused by the scourge, and ascertained by Dr. Castaldi, is approximately calculated as fol lows: AtBana, 53 at Kaninias,_4 in Karava, 27 in Djoumouchan 62 in Arbaneuz, 39 atUtch-tene, 100 in Sandiak 35 at Gultepe, 12 in Charab,.18 at Rahim Khan, 27 and in Akdjevan, 13 total, 390. Dr. Castaldi further declares that the epidemic in question haq exhibited the well known characteristics of contagion. He concludes by stating that since his departure from the Kurdistan no further news respecting the plague had arrived atTeherau, except a communication to the Persian Government to the effect that the plague had disappeared, a communication to which .he does not seem to attach great faith,

REV. DR. BETHUNE once went on board a crowded ferry-boat, and was looking for a seat, when a man unknown to him started up and said: "Doctor, take my seat it is an honor to give such a man a seat. Ever since 1 heard of that big church in New York trying to get you away by giving a call of $5,000 and you said you'd see 'em d-d first, I have had great respect for you, and I think it an honor to give you a seat."
