Tho State Roform Committoo of Wisconhin bavocalled & convention tomeot at Mitwaukeo on Sopt. 23 to nominato State officors on o plat- form in harmony with the principlos of Joffof- son. There woro 814 deaths in this city Iost wook ; 12 1esa thon the woek boford, - and 15 moro than fu'tho corresponding weck last yoar. Thoro wore 8 denths from cholora, against & wook be- foro last. Tho Erie Railroad, Prosident Watson statod yestordny to tho Dircctors, hns recovored 86,812,380 worth of proporty during tho year from tho ring by which it was plundored in the days of Fisl snd Gould,. and oxpects to compel tho rostitution of much more. . A meeting of the farmers of Livingston Coun- ty, which has boon the cradle of tho Anti-Mo- nopoly movermont in this State, was hold yester- day. A full delogation wns prosent from evory, town in tho county, and au indopendent tickot of connty officora was put in nomination, Any efforts our Government may havo mndo(to hiove the Manitobn prisonors roleased on bail, bove boon unsuccessful. Thoy will romain in prison till thielr trisl. Tho Dritish Governmont, 14 esid by Ministor Thorntor to uphold tho courso of the colonisl authoritios, Aftor all thelr fulminations, the insurgents ot Cortagona did nob firo a shot to provent Renr- Admiral Yolverton from sailing away with the Spanish iron-clads, which he has taken to Gibral- tar. Ho will recommend bis Government not to surronder them to the Madrid Administration until mattens at Cartagons aro settlod. _Tronsuror Spinnor doubts whother covoring back-pay into the Trensuly, a8 repentant mom- bora aro doing, places it logally beyond thoir roach, Tho mouoy is theirs by law, and, as tho transfor to tho Unitod States is without conmd- oration, it is © question whether any logal defonso could bo mado to the suit of an hoir-at- lay, for instance, for its recovery. - As the Indisn Agent of Fort Bill has heard nothing of the massacro of the women and chil- aron and soldiora thero, it mey bo considered o hoax. A lettor has been recolved from him, written tho day after tho date of tho massacre, in whiols ho says that tho Indians aro anxious to boon good terms with tho whito men, and can bo roadily induced to sign o treaty to rofrain from any farther daprodations along tho Toxou frontier. " Sinco Saturday, threo of tho, startlingly-woll- dono €600 countorfeit grecnbacks have beon received ot tho Sub-Treesury in New York. Experts pronounco them tho best counterfoits that thoy Lave over seon. Fow of them aro in cirenlation in Now York, and it is bolioved that thoy bavo been issued mostly in tho West, A full desgription is givon in our dispatohos of the difforences betwoon theso notes and the genuino legal-tondors, . Dntective Simmons has beon dismissed by tho Board of Police. His dismissal was precoded by the unnnimous adoption of a resolution charac- torizing the nssociation of policomen with known violators of tho law, or the accoptanco of favors from them,” as worthy tho woverest coneuro of tho Bonrd. Tho dismissed officer intenda to carry the caso to tho courts. Another. officor is to'bo arraigned upon similar charges by Superintendont Washburn ot tho noxt meeting of the Duard, ‘he extont of tho popular indignation ngainet tho Congroesmon who have taken the salary- grab may bo iunferred when the Burlington Hawkeye, the leading Ropublican papor of Iown, 'declarca : Of ono thing, however, wo feel protty sure, and that Is, that tho people of Tows will not liston with any patiouce -to any publio speaker, no mattor how eminont, whoso banda aro not ontircly cloan of the ‘salary-grab’ pollu- tion. On this their minds aro mado up.” Every momber of Congress who has talkon that money has boon oxcluded from tho stump ; oven tho ¢ party ** eannot socuro them arcspoctful hoaring, —————— Tho Chairman of tho Corporation Committeo of tho Boara of Equalization learned nothing from bia visit to Ghicago, but that County-At- . tornoy Root was of the opinlon that the Board had no right to assess thoe stock of corporations, and hiad probably advised the County Assossors to mako no returns of tho stock of the 1,000 cor- porations in Cook County. A speoinl committoo "of threo will probably bo appolnted to-day to vislt tho chlof citios of the State to gathor in- " formation for tho assossment of thoso avidoncos of proporty, on which the Doard seoms mischlev~ ously bent, Making pilgrimages has hoon a favorite form of dovotion with Roman Cutholics in every ago of the Church, Of late it has been the rage with tho French Catholics to visit Tourdes. A slmilar movement has begun among the English Catholios, 600 of whom startoed yestorday to visiy Paray-lo-Monial, the shrino of Margarot Mary of Alacoque. Englishmon are not Fronchmon, and it Is not considored likely In Eugland that tho stroam of Anglican visltors to Paray-lo- Monial will bo Inrgo, despito the ongonragomont | of tho Jesuits and tho trapproprintely-laxurious accommodations provided for the failbful on tho routo aud at tho shrino. The grain recolpts at o during tho pnst ‘ten dnys have been unprocodented, For tho forty-eight liours onding 11 n.nf. on Monday thoro nrrived horo 1,975 cars with graln, which, with the recoipts by caunl, mako nu nggregato of 880,000 bushols, Tho rccolpts of wheat, corn, onts, and barley from Aug. 29 to 11 o'clock 4. m, Bopt. 8 woro as follows: Wheat, 1,000,451 bushiols; corn, 2,803,800; oatn, 034,147; ryo, 04,7223 DLarley, 117,087, or an nggrogato of 5,406,167 bushiels, This does not includo flour, of which about 85,000 barrols wors recoived.

DOUBLE TAXATION, Theo State Board of Equalization of Taxes has now beforo it tho question whether the State shall tax tho property of corporations onco, twigo, or threo timos. . For purposes of couven- fonco in tho mattor of business, & groat many companios have Leon organizod undor tho laws of the Stato. In some cases, thoso companics have special privileges, such a8 tho horno-rail- way companien; but tho groat majority of thom Lavo no powers not equally opon to ali other cltizons, Tho proporty of all theso corpora- tions,—that is, tho roal ostate, bulldings, furni- turo, and all othor tangiblo proporty,—is, of courao, taxed just Iiko the proporty of all other citizens. But It iz proposed now to tax all theso corporations, first,.on all tholr roal and porsonal property; sccond, on their cnpital stock; third, on® their franchiscs, which, of courso, aro their chartered privilogos. Thore aro thowo who claim that thoro i3 no dou- blo taxntion in this, But it even extonds be- yond, and lovies another tax on the shares of tho stock Lold by the stockboldors porsonally. Tho Constitution gives the Legislaturo power to tax property, whothor belouging to individuals or corporations ; it also gives powor to tax peraons or corporalions “owning or using frauchises aud priviloges in such manner ns it shall from timo to timo direct by genoral law, uniform as to tho olnss upon which it operatos.,” But tho Consti- tution did not intend that the Legislature shonld tax tho eame thing more than onco. A corpora- tion is an aggrogation of tho subscriptions of o certain number of persons, who unite their capi- tal to fnvest in and carry on & cortain businoss with their 100,000 cash thoy purchaso renl ostato and buildings, stocks of goods or ma- torinls, mochinery or tools. The cortificntos of stacle oro writton ovidences of tho intorost of the respoctive porsons in tho property of the company. Wlen, thorefore, tho States toxes tho property ownod and held by the company, it oxhausts its power; whon, in addition to taxing tho proporty, it also taxes the papor ovidenco of such proporty, it duplicatos the tax, which is bo- yond tho powor of any Legislaturo to do. Tt mny tax the franchiso or privilege, but that ia when tho franchise or privilege is n special ono, and not ono that is open to ovorybody olse. TFor instenco, if twolve shoomakoers, instead of carry- ing o' businoss separatoly, unite and under tho genoral Jaw organizo as a company to make shoos, how much is the privilogo to mako shoes Jolntly worth to thom in oxcess of tho right ench of thom had to make shoes soparatoly? In that cnso, thoy gain mno frenchise or privilogo by tho ack of incorporation that thoy did not have be- foro; ond to tax thom on thoir proporty, and bon on their anpilal stock, and tlion on thoir franchiso, and possibly, slso, individ- nally on_ their respectivo sharcs, is piling tnx after tax on the samo propoerty in a most reck- loss and illogal mannor. A franchiso or privi- lego in tho menning of tho Constitution to ho toxablo must have somo special valuo, Tho man who hina loarned o trado can Lisrdly bo taxed un~ dor nn fden that ho has n franchiso or privilego of soiting type, or cutting atono, or making clothes. How can ono man ho taxed for & privi- logo which is equally open to all other porsons ? How can tho Bonrd of Equalization fix the valuo of a privilogo whicl is oqually freo to any person who exorcises it ? % Tho duty of tho Board of Equalization is o plain ono: that duty is to see that all tangible property s taxed “in proportion to tho valuo® thereof, and, having gatherod in all this, try and find sny Intangiblo property not reprosented in that alroady taxed. Whon it has taxed all prop- orty onco, lot it close up its sossion and adjourn, Timo spont in an endoavor to tax tho same prop- certy two or throo times ovor In timo wasted, and any action looking to that ond munt of necossily dofont itself, The roprosontatives of tho Grand Italian Union in the United 8intes, at thelr fourth annual Con- grosa hold in 8, Louis Jast weok, adopted a very slrong potition to Congress for such logislation a8 will stop tho trafle in Ilallan childron. The potition statos that this eruol trado is not of ro- cont orlgin, but has progressod for conturios, ond that it i tho dosive of iho Italisn pooplo, throughout thoe entiro longth and breadth of the country, that the oxtromo rigors of o utrong law sholl bo vieited upon any of their unwarthy countrymen who “shalt .bo engnged in this dinbollonl ocoupation.” 'Fhio notion of the Italians s timoly, and will bo Indorued vorystrongly byall classos of tho community. The immenss incrense of the strolling juventlo musicians in thia city alono, within tho last yoor, sbows to what oxtent thiy whito slavory 18 carriod on, Tho oauso of humanity demands Uit tho two Govormments should tako stch mensuren a8 will supprons tho abominablo -traflo, and punieh the brutal pudroncs, whoso greed subjeols theus childron’ not only to abducuon from their homes, but o o treatment ns tyranniend ond ornel a8 over murkod the days of African ulnvery. INOREASED RAJLROAD FACLUITIES, Tho irmouse buninoss of this oity thin soison in tho way of railrond récoipts ds shown clo- whoro in this papor, During tho last ton days noarly fivo and a half millions of bushols of grain Liavo beon rocoived hore, principally by rail.: "Thoso eamo, of courso, from tho West and South, In tho enmao timo thero hiaa boon o vast business donoin shipping goneral morchandiso toall points in tho Wost and Souttiwost. In sddition to thie trafllo dixect to Clhicago, ocoupylng, on an aver- g0, 1,400 or 1,600 cars n day, thord is o daily ar- rival hora of 500 onrs londed with through froight, from points at the Wost going to tho Enat, and’ from polntsin tho East to points in the Wost. Thoso cars arrive hero by tho various trunk railways doing bueiness horo, snd have to bo transforrod from ono rond to tho other ovor tho rondwaya whic, for tha moat part; pass through tho city. This trausfor businoss has beeonlo so groat, and the unavoidable delays of . tronelt through tho city aro so mauy; that tho long-talked-of railrond for thiu apcelal buslness of transfor ng becomo an imperativo nocessity, Tho Chicago Trausfor Railrond Company bins, thiorofore, been orgamzed, with tho following- named porsons comprising tho Diractory: . 0. Moldrum, Benjamin T Allon, Goorge 8. Bowen, T, 8. Dobbius, IT, B. Latroboe, and James Walsl, | Theso gontlemen all have a ripo experiencs in rnilrond mattors, and are woll known in businces circlos. ‘Thoy aro likely to command tho confi- donca of tho entiro railfond community, If wo undorstand tho plan of this Compauy, it is to construct arailway at somo point on or near Boventy-firat btreet, running thenco west noven or eight miles, thonco north ag far ns Montroso, This routo will intorcopt overy raflroad on which through froight is mow rocolved in Chicago. At onch point whoro it intersccts - anothor road, s yard will bo provided into which all cars losded with throngh freight will bo roceived by tho Transfor Company, and these cara will bo by that Company immediately taken to tho points of in- “torscction with thoso ronds over which the samo aro to bo taken, whothor golngs Enst or Wost, and there delivered to guch road, By this ar- rangemont, the tracks in tho city of “the various Compenies will bo relieved of tho through froight business, and tho trans- for of through freight trains can Dbo rondered completo in less than twolve hours, whon' it now talas, on an average, thrco dnys. It is estimat- ed that o car in motion oarns $10 a dey, aud nothing while idlo; the delays in’transfor in this city, it thoy averago throe dayw, involvo n loss to tho railronds, in addition to (he actual cost of trounfor, of nearly €80 a car: By tho means of this tranefor road, this loss.will bo’ wholly obviated. ‘It is mot improbablo, that, whon this road is constructed and i in fall opo- Tation, its groat convenionco in the tranafor of through Treight will load to olher arrangemonts. Thero is no roason why such a company should not act ne a -clonring-houso befweon all the rallroads doing business in Chica- go and having intorchangesblo accouuts for froights and for use of cavs. Tho unprecedentod volumo of busincss this season tuxes the facilitios of tho soveral roads, in pass- ing through thoe cily, to their utmost capneity. To have tho transfor of through freight taken from tho tracks in the city, and wado outsido ab convoniont points, will bo & great rolief. Wo understand that iho Company is alrcady laying off their routo, aud seoking tho right of way, and, with abundant meang nb its command, tho rond will bio pushed to complotion rapidly. DISCOURTEQUS POLITICIANWS. * The Will County Auti-Monopoly Convention, ‘which met at Joliet on Monday last, whilo it did many excellent things, was needlessly ungellant and discourteous in ono thing. It passod somo very pithy but admirablo resolutions, and made Bomo strong nominations, and, undoubtedly, if tho members of tho Convention are harmonious in their purposes and direot thoir onorgies aright, tho tickot will earry tho county this fall, Theso facts should inve mado the Couvention moro aminblo, gonorous, and gallant than it was in its treatmont of Mrs. McIntoeh, whoso name was Drought beforot as o candidato for School Buper- intendent. No eloction having taken place on' the firat ballot, Mre, MeIntosh's fitness for tho placo wag canvagsed by several members, upon: the very absurd ground that tho party would bo hield up to scorn and woakoned if it nominated & woman.
