TAXES ON MORTGAGES. We print below s _communication which gives “evidencs of much thought, and of a comprehen- eive viow of the matter discussed, though, as ‘will be seen by our own comments following it, o cannot entirely agree with the writer : Zo the Editor of The CI Tridbune : i Governor Dix, the New York Evening Post, andeome Western papers ars urging the exemption’ of bonds and mortgages from taxation, and clatm that the bond, socured by & mortgage on land, such taxation ‘=mounts to a second tax upon the land. The roason- ‘ing applies equelly well to chattel mortgages, I o ‘moncs-lender takes security upon wheat, corn, &c., iu an clévator, he ehould bo exempt from taxation o the ~¢ume principle; so with & man who londs upon 8 ves- el or who ells goods to a merchant and takes & judg- meat bond or any other description of personal secur- ity. 1ndeed, viewing tho question from that stand- poiut, ull taxation on Dotes or accounts is double tazi- Tion £ sach notes or accounts are_protected by prop- enty in the bands of thedebtor, The concluelon from tho prenises i, hat all dobts should be exempt. from tazation, This rule would throw the whols burden of the tazes npon the holders of lsnd and chatteis, part of whom would owe end be paying interest for a large portion of tho value of iheir posscssions, snd part would be froo from debt. Would it be right {hat these ®Lould bo taxed alike? Obviously not; therefore, in - order to do justice to the first of thess classes, fhey ehould be ailowed to deduct from the valuatlon of the property in thelr hands the azkount of their debts, and eolet the tazesall fall upon unpledged real es- “tate end chattels, i Sanks, tnsuranco companies, trust companles—in- ‘deed, all banks dealing in credits—ehould have the beneht of thia rule, and bo zelossed from paying taxes oD debts due them, both in Justice to them aad to ef- Yoct tho abject of the change, that s, the re- duction of the rate of interest, for the change ia pro- Poted in the interest of the borrowers, and it is p enough to ned no argument that if the incorporated fmoney-lenders continve to pay taxes on their credits ‘thoy cannot reduce their rate of interest, and that the Tate of interost that they charge will govern individual lendors, Thaes things being done, the way will be prepared Zor the great Feamit-? Comiross toust Tt tho National Banks to 5 per cent inferest on loans and discounts, The several States must follow with lawa reducing the Tates of interest within their borders, or if they fail, then Congress must do it for them under the power “ to regulate commerce between the States,” or if such n law ia considered 100 eweeping, the interest charge- ‘able by all corporations must be reduced to 5 per cent. Individusls would be compelled to conform, except on - questionable accurities, Ono thing is yet wanting. The tax-psying owners of chattel, real,and - persopal, will want some smecurity that theif non-taxpaying 'creditors ehall not raise the rale of interest upon them, and otherwise <control the law-making power to their prejudice, “They must, therefore, have exclusive possession of one branch "of Cangress pnd of the Stata Lagialsture, “and none but. taxpsyers be allowed to vote for mem- bers of our Chy Counol) o what would e more 13 o- and_mors none but taxpayers Eould o alowsd to vote atall, fot if tho ratks of the clasawho pey no taxes because of destitution are to be retnforced those Wwho &re exempt from taxae ton by reason of their wealth, what protection will e emall clngs of taxpayers have 7. _ We will then Lo prepared to balance and hold to- gether these debtor and creditor classes by s Monar- <h Q. E. D. Repry.—In the first paragraph of the above communication our correspondent admits the self-avident proposition that taxes cannot be collected ont of snything else than- the real sproperty, viz.: real ontate and chattels ; in other words, land and the producis of labor. Most persons would also, probably, enumerate .money =3 ons of the products of Iabor which does or ought to pay texes. But thers is so much mis- ronception a8 to what ¢ money” means that in- stead of money we shonld only ssy coin, becanse all papor money,” all notes, all bills, and bank credits are only evidences of debt, likebonds and mortgoges. 3 If taxes can not be got out of anything but what is of intnnsic value, viz., real estate chat- tels, and coin, it must be spparent thatit isa delusion to imagine they can be collected out of wmortgages, bond.n,&mnfinsnrynnteu ‘bank notes, or bank credits. these are only eyvidences Ahat the holdor of such documents has had real roperty,—land or chattels—but that he has oaned them to some oe else. No matter how much taxation mey k2 disguised by tho show of vollecting Stato revenue from Teal roperty, 1t ull cumes out of the real pnxed at last, and he ho bazraws sesl prapsriy snould secogiise thie Inevitable liability which ita possession carrics withit. We do not, therefore, sgree with onr correspondent _ that justice = roquires - that wmen should be allowed to leduct the amount of ' their debts | from the valua- for taxation. Neither jon of their proj we adumnit the necossity of any of the conse- onces ho essumes in the way of usury laws and o clusive logislation of tax-payers. Humanity w bas a5 much right to a voice ‘in legislation ‘a8 property. Interest, like taxes, cannot coms ont of any- thing else than ‘property, and if the ma- chinery of taxation were directed against“real property alone, it would as inevitably reach the Income of the capitalist, who Las losaed his real estate capital. and receives back annually a cor- tain per cent of its increase, as the tax on mort- gegos now certainly falls on the land mortgaged. THE PACIFIO BAILBOAD SINKING FUND. When the Government subsidy to the Pacific Railrosds was first authorized, the railroad com- panies were required to set aside annually 5 per cent of their net earnings, as & sinking fund, for the liguidation of the debt to the Government, has boen claimed, and belicved, in some quarters, that the subsequent modifications of the railrosd charters, by which the Companies wero permitted to make their debt to the Government a second instesd of & gt mortgage on the rcads, they were reloased from this 5 per cent ginking fund clanse. But it seems the railroad Companies themsclves do not beliove they are legally released, s they now find it necossary to make another kind of ex- cuse for the non payment of this 5 per cent. Their ploa is that thero are bridges to be built, now rails to bs Iaid, depots to be built, otc., eto., in short, that the wholo construction this plea X _ a8 literall zorrect it is not impossible that in strict mold! ance with tho_contract intheir charters they were never entitled to any of the subsidy bonds which they received on the completion of every ten miles of the roads.

The following were tho receiptsand shipments of produce at this point during the past twenty- four honrs, and for the corrosponding date one year ago: 1873, BECEXFTS, 4,597, Withdrawn from store yesterdsy, for city consumption : 2,068 bu whoat, 6,626 bu corn, 2,022 bu oats, 109 bu rye, 4,897 bu barley. The following grain has been inspected into store this morning, up to 10 o'clock: 49 cars wheat, 109 cars corn, 10 cars oats, & cars rye, 9 cars barley. Total, 163 cars, or 107,000 bu. There was a little more business done in com- ‘mercial circles to-day, aad gonerally ot higher prices; which fact, strangely enough, was prin- cipally due to the transportation difficulties to which we alluded this morning. The great diffi- culty experienced by the provision packers in ro- moving the vast accumulations of product in their establishments, has induced some of the heaviest firms to suspend pecking—perhsps not to be resumed this winter. materially the demand for of the hogs Stock Yards daily, place This action lessened money to take care they have bought at the and was presumed to a little more at the command- of operators in other departments. Hence s littlo more tion' to buy, small advance in prices. . Not much importance seel the rumors of @ belligerent which resulted in 8 ms to be attached to attitude on the part of Bussia toward England. Thero was & slight flurry in wheat early, which was tracosble to the war news; but it was 800n over, and it eventually tronspired that both wheat and corn were lower in Liverpool—showing that the British com- mercial public are, not enpecially alarmed. But there is a respectsble minority of our com- miercial men who think that a war is cortain, and - that it will involve mearly all the powers of Europs and Asis. Some of these bought to the extent of their available means to- day, in support of their belief. They held that Russia hos boen the fall of Sevastopol, that preparing for this ever since sho is spoiling for & fight, and that the usual pradence of England will not avail in staving off the encounter with & nation which does nob arbitrate, except when sho plays the role of arbitrator. 1t is difficit to judge wiat would bo the fature of our produce mar ets if the whole of the 0ld World should en- gage in one vast struggle as a prelude to the “good time coming " when men shall know war 10 more.

Wheat was more active, and avoraged o Digher than on 'Chango yesterday, thongh most of the transactions to-dsy were made at sbout the advance gnined last evoning after the receipt of tho warlike nows from Europs. The market openedstrong, and sdvanced 3gc, but it was while thers wWere only & few = operators present. After awhile selling orders poured in quito freely, and prices fell off, becoming quite weak when Liverpool was quoted lower on two or three grades in that markot, The short inter- st “flledin” liberelly in the morning, but there was not much going long ; and compara- tively little doing after 12 o’clock. The propor- tion of trading for February was rather greater than nsual for the past fow days, there being mora of a desire to sottlo up for noxt month, aa delivery day comes_on Saturday, and there are fow hero who are ambitious of the hanor of car- Tying, even for 8 day or two; and this makes o great difference in favor of tho March option.

According to the returns of the London Board of Trade the foreign trade of Groat Britain for the year 1872 reached the enor:nous total of §3,- 046,000,000, The following comparison and com- monts are made by the Economist of Jan. 11 : W come then to the facts which the returns now beforo ua tellus about the trade of the year. Those who figures have certainly every cause Yo o matiated: - S4ding togeiner the General fotala of our trade, as shown abovo, we got the following com- parizon Tmports. Ezports. Total, £303,976,000 £255,062,000 £609,338,000 S0,754,000 225006,000 653,620,000 Increase £22,022,000 £32,696,000 £55,518,000 —These Sgures are not quite completc, for thero {sa largo amouint of re-exports, which reduces conaider- ably tho differenco in amount between our imports and exports, but they aro still enough to show the astonisbing magnitude of our trade. Tho bare fact that Inst year we bought from other nations £350,000,000 worth of goods, which we had somehow to pay for—an nmonnt equal to £11 per head of the population, or £55 yor family—shows how much wo are indebted for {ho comforts and conveniences of lifo to the foreigner. There wis no complaint st year that people at home were not well cnployed, but thoy wers _employed {0 large extent in creating things to buy with, and not in ‘producing nrticlea for direct consumption. The em- ployment is the important thing, and surely 1o Pro- Tectionist will bo left fanatic enough to ssy that all tho sugar, tes, cotion, timber, wool, and other articles which we bonght from our nelghbors might better have béen produced at home. " This is n fair result forthe year, faking the do- creaso in one month with the incresse in another, though, of conrse, it remains to be seen whether the year which has now commenced in the midst of s Pariod of high prices will show an_increase over ita ‘predeceator, - Itia all the more likely to do_ 8o, how- ever, 0a trade has alresdy been checked, snd in 1873 we shall probably have the Sgures of a revived trade, although nt a higher lovel of prices. Asaconfirma. tion of the real increase of our busizess in 1872, the figures of our ehipping msy be referred to, Wo slionld ‘have had fewer ships arriving and depsrting if we had been doing less trade. But, n fact, the entries and clearances “ with cargoes at poris of the United Kingdom amounted last year to 37,147,000 tons, a8 compared with 35,502,060 tons in 1871, “The Iat sot of facts which we sball noticeis in con- nection with our trado in bullion. England is the bullion entrepot of the world, aud i _consequence of {he special demand for Germany last year the facts sre nnusually interesting. On balance, sa we havo lstely pointed out in elaborate articles, wo usmally receive ‘more bylllon than we export, our annual excess of old isaports slone being from four to five mil ons, The difference is used up in coinage at hows and in fhe arts. But last year, a3 wo bave insisted for months, there was & strain upon ua and the o courso of trade was reversed. The complete figurcs for the year confirm our account of the matter.
