Depend upon it, Marr Bexven's ver- sion is the one most worthy of boliof, for ho has acted tho part of oman throughout, and has dono nothing to bo ashamed of,—which is rather more than enn he said of the Mayor, THE “BACK TAXES" DECLARED LEGAL, The Supremo Conrt of this State has ron- dored judgmont in favor of the Clty of Chicago in tha enso of the “back taxes.” It will bo remombered thnt the Gonoral Rovo- nuo law of 1672, which went into oporation July 1, 1872, provided for tho levy of all taxes on tho valuation or assessment of property a3 mado for Stato tnxation, For various roasons—the city just thon recover. ing from tho consequences. of the fire, ine eluding among those consoqnonces the remission of 60 per cent of one year’s taxes after tho expondituras for that year had been made, and the loss of reyenno from the deatruction of property—it was at- tempted by tho Legislature. to provide for levying city taxes on apecinl or city valuation, Under this Inw nnd sovernt amendatory acts, tho taxes for 1872, 1873, and 1874 were loviod, disregarding the aaseesmont for Stato purposes mado under the Goneral Revenue law. Subsequently the Supreme Gonrt decinred all theso tax levies on city valuationa wero illegal, aud, so far as tho taxes wore unfair, wore void, That portion of thoso taxes nnpaid ot that time and which wore thus legally spougod out of existenca amounted to about two millions and a half of detiaro, aud unfortunately wero represent. od by outstanding city scrip bearing interest. ‘Tho city nd trented these unpaid taxes'as avwsets, but the decision of tho Court had de- stroyed them, ‘This decision lad tha effect, howover, of bringing about that reform in the city expenditures and oxcited that public intorost which resulted in tho reform of tho City Government in 1876, under which Mayor Hearn was elected. Tho Legislature of 1877 passed a law au- thorizing the City Government to extend tho tax lovios for 1878 and other years, on tho State valuation, and procacd to collect these back taxos, Judgment was obtained on this now levy in 1878, In tho menutime a large portion of the tax had been voluntarily paid, and nm year ago there remained, perhaps, $1,500,000 duo ander tho now levy for the old taxes. Of this snm about 41,000,000 was forfeited, nnd an appeal was taken on about $500,000. The presant decision of tho Supreme Conrt affirms the constitution. ality of the act of 1877, and declares the judgment for the unpaid balance of tho back taxes valid, The portion of tha tax not paid last year but forfeited to the State untler n penalty of 10 por cent hns beon extended on tho tax- warrant for this year with tho ponally; the portion appealed is also in the samo condi- tion, Judgment will be given for these taxes ot the present term, and the proporty will bo sold for these back taxes unless the samo be paid in duo time, Though the decision dovs not place diract- ly or immediately nt tho disposal of the City Governmont the million and half of dollars in ensh rovenue, it does declare that tho city has a lon on all tho proporty in default for that sum of money with 10 per cont interest sinco 1878 ‘This len 18 perpetual until paid; the ponalty, however, aftor this year will bo increased from 10 to 25 por cent, Tho cheapor way, thereforo, is to pay tho tax. No portion of this roal proporty can woll bo sold, or transferred, for mortgaged without first paying theso aud oll othor taxes, ond undor tho incroased ponnltios which taka effoct noxt yenr n neglect to pny will render tho ultimate and iuovitable pay- ment a largo one, ‘Tho outstanding scrip issmod against theso back taxes ia not much in oxoess at this time, of $800,000, This will bo rapidly taken up, and it may bo expected confidently that ont of theso unpaid back taxes tho, city will ovontually have a million of dollars surplus with which to begin the “ pny-ns-you-go” policy, to which tho city for many obvious rengons must como in order to do busiuess honestly and in a business manner, ‘Tho | scrip policy is o mero makeshift which should bo abandoned at tho carlicst possible moment. THE SILVER DOLLAR, Tn 9 recont speech made in the Bonate Mr, Zacu Citanpien, of Michigan, in presenting au array of churges against tho Democratic party, wout outaide of the record, and, to gratify a personal dovotion to a particular class, under tho protonso of denouncing” the Domocratio party, thus nssailed the bi-mo- tallic policy of the country, Ho anid: ‘ Fourth—For having attempted (there aro hon- orablo exceptluny, and long tay thoy be remem: bered) to dumage the biulness juterests of tho country by forcing allver coin into circulation of Jews yaluo than it represcute, thie swindling tha laboring man and producer by compolling hima to accopt 85 cunts for tho dollar, and thus eutich tho bullion owners at the expense of the laborer, ‘weve hundred twilllons of dollars te paid yearly to labor alone in this county, and by forcing the RS-cont dollar on the workingmen you swindle (hem out of $280,000, 000 yearly." ‘Tho romonotization of silver and the ros- toration of bi-motalllam has novar boon a par- tisan question, ‘Cho act of demonetization ‘Was generally repudintad by all parties; the repeal of that act found advocates and oppo- nonta in both parties. ‘he frlenda of silver wero not confiued to any one party in Con- gross or out of it, Tt had ita strongest and ablost defenders and its mort bitter oppo. nenta in both parties, Conxurna and Buarne opposed silver; so did Kennan and Bayanp, Auuwon of Towa, Cauznon of Pennsylvania, Fenny of Michigan, wero a8 earnest jn support of the bill as wore Voou- Bees aud Tivusan; and tho proportion of the yote of the Republican Senate in favor of tho passage of tho bill ovor the Executive voto was an great as was the like vote in the Democratio House, On tho voto to pass tho bit over the President's veto the numbers | were: Yeas—Republicans, 21; Domoorate, 26, Nays—Ropublicany, 10; Democrats, 9, In tho Houso: Yeas—Republicaus, 75 Democrats, 121, Nays—Domocrats, 20; Republicaus, 63, hore were only 10 Ke- publicans jn tho then Republican Senate who voted against tho passage of the bill over the veto, ‘Lhe bill providing for the coinage of tho silver dollars, and making thein a logal tender, was, thoroforo, if there” woro any party responsibility in the matter, na fully a Republican measire ns it was Dowocrntic. ‘The nation of the Republicans on the question was especially emphasized by their overruling tho yoto of the Ropub- Jican President, ‘The fact is, that bill was demanded by the universul routiment of tho whole people ont- sido of the small faction interested in gold, and located in tha Fastorn States. The pop. ular fecling then oxisting in favor of the restoration of silver coinngo cxista just na gonernlly to-day; in fact thousands oro in favor of the silver policy to-day who woro afraid two yonrs ngo that specia resumption might bo embarrnssed by it, but ‘who now clearly understand that the restoration of allvor alone maida the resumption possible of maintonance, ‘The silver coinage to-day js the vory anchor that holds the National cred- it. In assailing tho-silyer policy, thereforo, Mr, Cuanpven is simply denouncing the Re- publicans in and ont of Congreas who fairly reptesonted tho sentiments of their constitu: onts and of the people generally of nll par- tles, Nor is Mr, Coanpuer any more fortunate in his comments on tho silver question. His wholo statement is a succession of falsehoods 80 gross ns to be wholly inexcusable. Sinco January Inst there has boen no monoy in cir- ‘culation in this country that has been depro- ciated; tho gold, silvor, and paper have had tho samo value, have been exchangeablo, and each has beon able to purcliasa as much as the other, . ‘Thera has been no mnn compelled to pay out silver dollars for 85 cents; thera ns never been nday whon the silver dollar or tho paper dollar would not purchase ag much of anything as the gold della. ‘Chere has nover been aday when the gold cigio would purchaao any moro silver dollars than it would paper dollars or gold dollars, and nover a day when tho holder of silver dollars has baen compelled to pay the slightest premium for gold. ‘fhe American silver dollar passes ns curront and will purchase as much in Europo as will the gold dollar, ‘Thoro is not n laboring man or any other man in all tho United Statos, including Detroit and tho State of Michigan, who has evor lost one cont by tho coinage of silver dollara. When ho mado this state- ment inthe Senate, when ho asserted that the Inbor of this country lost $180,000,000 annually by tho coinngo of tho silver dollars, ho statod what ho kuow and whatall tho mon around him know to bo a most inde- fonsible falschood. If his purpose in making such statemonts bo to coerce or bulldoze tho Ropublicans and the Ropublican party into an hostility to bi-metalliam, and in- to support of non exolusive gold currency, thon Mr, Cuanpuer has undertaken a job beyond his powers, ‘Tho silver dollar is tho protection guaranteed to the American people against any scheme of cou- iseation resulting from an cxelusively gold currency. So long as tho American people lave the legal option to pay debts in gold or silvor, the gold or silver coin of tho United States cannot depreciate relatively, and tho variations of tho prices of metals caunot impair the value of the coin, nor can tho failure of tho supply of either metal or the combinations of monoy brokers furnish a “corner” in olthor gold or silyor ns to do. privo the people of the freo usa of tho othor. Mr. Cianvirn’s statement concerning our silver dollars was ill-advised, untimely, im. politic ns a.patty matter, grosaly malicious, and scandalously falao, “GENTLEMAN oe ON THE SITUA- Senator Pexpreton, of Ohiv, has been conmuunicating his viows to a reporter of the New York World relativo to the effect of the Into extra session of Congress on tho politica of tho country. ‘Tho following is o part of tho interview: “What in your opinion will to the effect of the veto nctlon of Mr, Hayes on the varlouy bills?” “fhe action of resident Haves has been to MMustrate and intensity tho very broud tesue bo- tween the partlos, ** Does the issue between him and the Democrat stand uny differently than {t did six montheagoy" ‘The Repablican’ party haw put ftaclf more squarcly, by the speechew ond votes of ite moat prominent Cougressjonal leadura, in favor of the question of the powerund duty of tho Federal Goy- ernment to nso the army of the United States upon thoday of olection at the polls or anywhere vlsc, and ifthe result of wuch uvo ts the intimidation of Voter and the prevention of « frov election, nover- thelcws that ty all right, Prestdent Haves mildly Alsclaima for luinsclf personally tho risht to use the ormy tu [nfluencs elections, but o¥ un organ of @ great party ho asserts not only such right but o duty to uso tho troops tu keep whut ho calla tho peaco of tho United Staten at tho polls, Wheryforo any ono can veo that the lroopa so used can, under the Influence of any strong partisan Marshal or General, intimidate yYoters who uro opnosed to tho Adminivtration— and the degreo of intimidation varies elmply with Individual {dlosyncrasics. ‘Then all the apecches made in the Senate, but fer wore thuac in the House of Representatives, have out the Nevublic- ‘on party undeviatingly on tho ground of neluy the army a8 one of the instrumentalitles of Its parti- Han atrength, ‘hey have gono further in that dl- rection not only than over was thougnt of bofera In Amoriean polfticu, but almout as far as wae over thought of by Narozon Ut, So that you readily percetye how President Wares by his vetacs, which aro realty plankw in platforms, las been the means of drawing sharp Ines, In the yolumes of the Congresslonal Record will bo found spocches which, when dispassionately read, would astontut the Auserican people, and porplox oven Republice ang who could read thom whhout tho passion en- Rendered by the strife of this extra sesslou," ‘This report warrants tho assurtion that Mr. Penpreron has doliberately misrepresented tho nctunl conflict batwoon the Prosidont and the Democratio Congrosa.

Indeed, he ndmitted as much aub- seqitontly in thi very samo intorview, for, in recounting whatthe Domocrats had finally accomplished, ho shid that the law had beon fo changed that horepftor soldiors could not be used in any offcetnal way at the polls.” But the Army bill which finally becnme a Jaw received almost a unanimous Republican yote in the House and@ was approved by the Republican Presidont. If, thon, it, aecont-- plishos what Mr. Pexpneton says it docs, tho cirennatancos attending its passayo and approval show that the Ropublicans were not struggling to maintain military despotism nor tho right to nse the United States troops for partisan purposes, ‘Thus Mr. Puxpieton is convictod of insincerity out of his own month, Ho was betrayed: into this contrn- diction, as othor Domoernts will be who shall Beok to justify the courso sof their repre- sentatives at tho lato sossion of Congress, by asonao of failure and n premonition of de- fent, Thoro was an ntter Democratic dofoat ko far as tho original purpose of tho oxtra session isconcerned, So faras any nasuranco was said to be ruquired by tho country that thore is no purpose on the part of the Ro- publican Administration to uso the army for partisan purposes, that hna boen conveyed by tho acqniescones of the Republican President and the Republican members of Congross in tho very first proposition which gave stich an assurance without impniring the right and power of tho Governmont to onforce tho laws, THE CAMPAIGN IN OHIO. Tho eluction which is to bo held in Ohio this coming fall has much of tha same Na- tional importance which was attachod to the gencral clection in the satno State fonr yoare ago and provious to the Inst Prosidontial olection, Tho conditions are rovorsed in ono respect. Four yenra ago it-was conceded that the success of the Republican candi- date, Mr, Hayrs, would mako that gontlo- man a formidable candidate for tho Repub- Mean nomination for Presidant; this year it is falt that the olection of the Democratic candidate, Gon, Ewina, will givo him a strong hold upon tho noxt Democratic nom- ination for Presidont, There is good reason to believe, therefore, tlnt tho canvass of tho Stato will be os thorough and tho contest ag spirited this year as it was whon Q. B, Hayes and “Rise-Up" Wio1ast ALLEN were tho candidates, Every trustworthy indication of the result, thus far, is favorabla to Ro- publican success, ‘The rival candidates aro both mon of excellont churacter, but Mr. Fosren has o personal ndvautago over Gon. Ewrxa in his greater popularity, Te hosn faculty for making frionds which Gen, Ew:no is said to Inck, and, so far as tho personal influonao of tho two candidates is concerned, tho former will bring more atrongth to the Ropublicans than tho latter to tho Democrats, An adverse influence will ba brought to bear against (ren. Ewrsa, too, from the Eastern wiug of. the Democrntic party, which fears that big clection ns Gov- ernor of Ohio would Jcad to his nomination for President, and which apprehends that such an event would bo fatal to the Domo- eratic ambition to gain.control of the Gener- al Govornment, Alli Democrats aro im- pressed with tho importanco of carrying Ohio this fall, but the hard-money Democrats who now that Ewzva could not, oa a Prosidentral enndidate, carry a single Enstern State, aro inelined to think that the loss of Ohfo this foll will be less disnstrous to the party than Ewrno’s nomination for President would be, ‘This feeling is cateulated to impair Gon. Ew- 1na's chances of success vory scrioualy; ‘Cho National ixaues in tho Ohio campnign aro distinotly marked, Perhavs tho fnaucial question is the most conspietious by reason of Ewrno’s candidature, ‘This gentleman is one of the pioncers of fintism, and haa dono moro than any ono elao to giva that school of fluance apecini dosiguation and local Labita- tion as “the Ohio Idea,” He is n firm be- lievor in tha notion that tho value of money can bo fixed by Governmont stamp, or flat, and favors the schome for fixing the currency of the nation by constitutional amendment nt a certain sum por capita, Ho was tho author of tho temporary modification of that genoral schema which Sountor Tuunsan subsequently adopted oa his own, viz: Tho retiremont of National-bank notes and tho substitution of legal-tonder Government notes to the same amount, ‘This propomtion was generally undorstood by ita frionds and by its opponents to bon preliminary stop in the effort to secure an irradcomable and practically unlimited paper currency ad the only money of the country, It was felt on both sidos that the doubling-up of tho presont volumo of greenbacks would broak down resumption, bring about na new depreciation of tha Government currency, and thus furniuh the excuse and opportunity forsetting the Government printing-machines to work ogniu, und for reeling off fat scrip to any oxtent that popular delusion might demand, This project was thoroughly cau- yaased in tho last gonoral election in Ohio, when ‘uvrstan and othors advocated it on the stump, and the result was the defent of tho Deimoeratio party whioh sustained it, Since then resumption has bocome an Accomplished fact aud a demonstrated suc cess, and it is sonrocly possiblo that fintistn in any form will bo ruecived by tho people of Obio with as much favor as it was a yonr ago, whon it was repudiated, ‘The only dan. ger which the Republican ticket enconntors from this isene is that those Republicans who aro infected with tho delusion may bo in- duead to yotogtho straight Greenback tickot, whilo the Democrats who beliovo in it will voto solidly for Ewra becauso they regard him ag a more advanced flatist than any man running a8 @ straight Grocnback candidate, ‘Tho intolligonce aud consorvatism of the Obio people, however, as evinced in former cluo- tions involving the samo issue, warrant the prediction that Ewina, as e flatist 08 woll Democrat, will bo rejected. ” ‘The issuo made by the Democratg ‘in’ tho lato extra session of Congress can scarcely fail to strengthon the Republicans in the Ohio campaign. It is well yuderatood that tho goneral purpose of the Democrats was to reassert the doctrine of Hlate-Noveroignty, and that the dooprino wasto bo uxod in the first instance to deny-!the' right of Govorn- ment supervision ‘over National and Con- gressional olectioi#, ‘This was to be ac. complished by,'Fepoaling or uulhfying the Election lawa:sllo great majority of the Ohio peo; plovecdrtajuly havo uo sympathy with thig:}irégrammo, ojther in its goneral design or its particular application. ‘fo Obio ps'\é every othor Northern State tho vindipafion of State-Sovervignty iinplies the right ‘of secossion, which tho people of Ohio resisted at tho sacrifice of thousands of Urayo mon; thosa peoplo will not be in- clined to indorse that doctrine now by olect- ing a Domocratic tickat in tho face of its reassortion, Nor will the majority of tho Ohio people approve the proposition to repent the National Election Inws, ocithor on tho ground that they ara in violation of the doctrine of State-Sovercignty or for nny othor reason, Ohio's oxporienco with the Etcotion Inwa ia that they aro designed aud usod to proteat Congressional elections from frand, and to punish tho villains who poltuto the ballot-box. ‘Tho intelligence of tho Ohio poople and thelr dosira to maintain the elective xyatem will prompt thom to con. tribute by the dofent of Ewrxa to tho dofeat ot tho Demooratio offort to remove all restraint ngainst fraud aud violence at the Congressioual cleations, ‘Tho Democrats aro endeavoring to mako & point of Gon, Ewrno's career in the Union army.

Au excellont girl sho was, no doubt, and wo believe sho, has been to Mr. Panny an estimable wife. Sho is o lincal descendant of one Joun’ Itype,—no doubt abont the Intter fact elther,—who camo to this country from England in tho year of our Lord 1832,—abort the timo Jacnson was threatening to hang Jonn C. Canuoun ns a irnitor, ote, ete, Joun Iixpn wean fool to leave England, for he had n couplo of broth- ors in Indin who wero about to die for his bonefit, so to sponk, and leave him somo millions in good pounds sterling. “But Joun didn’t know it “all tho same,” aud so ho left for the United States,,whera he married a Fronch woman, went to ght the Fronoh and Tudians, and was killed in battle, ‘Choro wera several lots of Hyprs in this country, and it so happened that, somo’ years ago, tho wrong lot got wind of tho fact that thera wora two or threo hundred million dollars, moro or less, snugly tucked away in tho Bauk of England, all for tho Hypz family, but unfortunately to tho credit of the High Court of Chancery, ‘his wrong lot of Hynes petitioned to havo the sum divided up amongst thom. But tho High Court of Chancery was vory technical about the matter, and flually convinced tho potitioners that they wero all wrong; that Joun Hypx was not so much ns a fifteenth cousin to any ono of their grent-groat-grand- fathora. About a weok ogo Mr, H, 0, Panxr, 86 Front street, Now York, ascortained that his wife was no common Lynx; in a word, that sho was dosconded in a direct line from the unfortunate Jonn who married a French woman, and died fighting his wife's conntry- mon and the Indinns, Mfr, Pande told his wifo immodintely all abont her progenitor Joux, and hig brothers Josuua aud Hom. runey, who, it acema, wero rex) good follows, veritublo Cheoryble Brothera, who huggod one anothor every morning before they wont into the counting-room, and invarinbly kissed like a couplo of soliool-girls whon they ro- tired to their bachelor couch.

But, on the whole, ho is very cheerfil, as who would uot bo with the near prospect of drawing from the Bauk of England §300,000,000? Will he no- cept bills of oxchaugo or domaud gold? What if ho should insist upon gold aud bring it all ovor to tho United States ina lump?

Thero may bon hitch, howovor, That Iligh Court of Clancory has disappointod several very enthnaiastic men in its day. Mr. Panne, should keop in , mind Diorexa’ cvlobratod cause of Jarndyce and Jarnlycs, of which ho said: ‘'Innumerable ehitdren Wve heon born into the causo; innumerable young penple have married into it; Inunmeradle ol! yeoplo have dicd ort of it, Scores of peovle have delirionsly found themaelven made parties, in Jarndyce anid Jarndyce without knowing how or why; whole familica have ine horited tegendary hatreds with the rult, ‘The little ninintét or defentan® who was promised a sieo rocking-horse when Jarndyce and Jarntyce shoult bo settled, has grown up, possessed ‘himself of n real horse, and trotted away Into the other world, Fate wards of courts have faded Into mothers and krandinothers; a long processton of Chancollors lias come fn and gone out; the fogion of ‘biltein tho salt have been transfurmod Into ‘mere bills of mortality; there are not three Jannpycrs left upon tho earth, perhaps, since oll Tox Jannoyer in despair blew his brains out at a cofoc-house in Chancery Inne, but sarndyce and Jarnilyce still drags its dreary length before the courts porcuulal- ly Nopeless.
