THE EVENING STAR. W. D. WALLACH, Editer and Proprietor. ee “WASHINGTON CITY: quunspar.. JULY 20, 1865. - WF READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE SEEK OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING Th.E- GRAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER. THE INCOME TA. —__—_o—_—. : LIST OF TAX PAYERS. Serene Soir et The income returns of the Assessors of In- ternal Revenue for this District tor the year ending June 30, 165, are now in, and the re- urns compare favorably with those of 1944, as the following exhibit shows: Monthly Returns for the year ending June Doth, 1665:—June, $10,193.03; July, $18,952.72; August, $30,772.93; September, $16,311.57; Octo- er, $23,593.67; November, $29,213.23; Decem- Der, $29,557.51; January, $22,598.31; February, $18,469.16; March, $19,604.24; April, $22,298.92; May, $24,214.36—total monthly tax, $265,369.55- Annual tax for 1963, $217,606.99. Special in- come, $306,502.60. Total, $791,559.14. The whole amount assessed has been col- lected with the exception of about $11.000— 29,000 of which is on the Special Income Tax, Assessed principally on non-resident salaried officers. The number of licenses issued in 1965 ‘were 6,753. The annual list for 1865 amounts to $425.000. The annual list for 1964 amount- @d to $217,686.99, an average’ of $22,000 per month. In giving the above amount of collections in this District for the year 1865, it should be Stated that the income tax paid by the large mumber of employees of Government upon their salaries does not appear in these figures, @s that tax is deducted when thesalary is paid. Adding the tax from this source to the above Figures, together with the amount paid in the ‘way of Corporation taxes, and we may esti- mate that this community shouldered last year @ tax of from a million and a quarter to a mil- lion and a half of dollars. It should be re- membered that last year two income taxes were paid, the annual tax and the special tax of fiye per cent. The complicated work of the collectors and assessors’ offices for this district is now so thoroughly systematized by the ingefatiga- Die officers at the heads of these departments, Mesers Clephane and Pearson, and their hard- working assistants, that comparatively few evasions of the law can be practiced and the amount of revenue will beup tothe maximum available. P.M. Pearson is the Assessor of the District, with George W. Pearson as chief clerk, office 7th street, opposite the Post Office. For the out-door operations the District is aid off into 11 divisions, toall of which an as- sistant assessor is assigned in the following order:—ist division, from 15th to 19th streets ‘west, Henry O. Noyes, assistant assessor—office Wo. 20 F street; 2d, 11th to 15th streets west, ‘T. B. Marche—office 250 F street; 3d, 5th to 7th Streets west, R. B. Ferguson—office No. 6 City Hall; 4th, 7th to 9th streets west, Henry Lyles— INo. 465 7th street; Sth, all east of Ist street west, Geo. Collard—office corner 4th street east and M street south; 6th, the Seventh Ward, or Island, Geo. H. Larcombe—No, & C st. south; 7th, Georgetown, Thos. Orme—No. 100 Bridge street; Sth, the county, D.

Deyine—Moore’s Drug Store. We yesterday commenced the publication of the list of tax-payers of the District who pay @u income tax of $100 and upwards, and to-day give the list for the District complete, as sub- Joined. Under the present law, with its two-rate ar- Tangement of tax, it is not quite sosimple a matter as under the old law, to estimate by means of the tax the amount of income upon Which it is based. The following may serve "Zs a rule to those inclined to figure it out: ‘Where the tax paid does not exceed $220, mul. tiply the amount by 20, and add 6v0 (for amount exempt) for nett income. Where the tax paid exceeds $220, deduct for the amount of tax $220, as representing an income of $5,000, the balance (after deducting the $220) multiplied by 10, (the tax above #5,000,) and added to the $5,000, will show the total income. That is to say, approximately, as besides the 8600 fixed reduction allowed by law, there are incidental deduetions for insurance, taxes, rent actually paid.-certain repairs of buildings, &c., &c.

Boston, July 20.—The commencement at Harvard College yesterday attracted a numer- ous gathering. There were greater manifesta- tions of interest than attended its exercises at any time during the past four years. The de- gree of Doctor of Laws was conferred on Gen. Meade and others. The wife of Gen. Ewell proceeded to Fort Warren yesterday morning with an order from President Johnson for the release of her hus- band, and on taking the oath of allegiance he was liberated. They both left for the South last evening. From New Orleans. Carro, July 20.—The steamer Continental, from New Orleans ox‘the 12th, has arrived. The Red River country will raise no crop but corn this year, except in a few localities. A vessel sailed from New Orleans for St. Petersburgh direct, with a cargo of cotton be- longing to New Orleans merchants. The wheat crop in Louisiana is better than ever before known. e The sugar crop will not be as large as last year. Among the passengers from Eastport, Miss., is the rebel General Roddy, who has applied for pardon. An Affray at Poughkeepsie. Povenkerrelse, July 20.—Anaffray occurred here last night, resulting in the death of Thomas Demott. Itappears that Demott approached Wm. Stevens, of the crew of the four oared boat, which was beaten in the great race on Tuesday, and accused him of selling out to the New Yorkers. Stevens earnestly denied the allegation, and on Demott repeating the charge he struck him a powerful blow with his fist, knocking him down and breaking his neck. Stevens immediately gave himself up. Con- siderable sympathy is manifested for Stevens. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR, Office of the Washington Aqneduct, Wash- ington.

Their Arrival and Departure from For- tress Monroe—Their Destination Sup- posed to be the Dry Tortugas. We announced some days ago the departure of the convicted conspirators, Mudd, Arnold, Spangler and O’Laughlin, on board the steam- er State of Maine for Fortress Monroe, en route, as it is supposed, for the Dry Tortugas, where it is belieyed the prisoners are to be confined. The State of Maine arrived at Fortress Mon- roe at 4 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon. The prisoners were in charge of Brevet Brig. Gen. Dodd, and wore irons on their anklés. When first placed on board at Washington, they also had on manacles. These last fetters were re- moved after the steamer left her wharf at Washington. On the trip down Mudd and Spangler were very cheerful, and employed their time in playing backgammon. O’Laughlin and Ar- nold, on the other hand, seemed much de- pressed in spirits, and were melancholy and reserved. On herarrivalin the Roads, the State of Maine anchored, and Gen. Dodd went onshore and communicated with Washington by tele- graph. Justatsundown the steam-tug Chowan went alongside of the State of Maine and the four conspirators were placed on board of her. The Chowan then steamed alongside of the U. S. gunboat Florida. The four prisoners were put on board the Florida, and that gunboat im- mediately steamed to seaward. MUDD, GREAT SALE OF GOVERNMENT STEAMERS AT THE NAVY YARD, At noon to-day the second great sale of steamers took place in the presence of a large number of persons, among whom were repre- sentatives from nearly evefy seaport in the Union, and under the direction of Messrs. Wall & Co., good prices were obtained for those sold. Previous to the sale the propeller Little Ada, which has been doing duty on the Potomac, Was transferred from the Navy tothe Treasury Department, and therefore was not sold. The first offered was the side-wheel, Com- modore Reni, length 17s feet. This boat was built originally for a ferry boat. and was used tor some time as an ice boat in New York harbor. She was purchased some two years since for the flotilla, and has been used as the flag ship of Vol. Lieut. Com. ©. Hooker, com- manding the Rappahannock division of the flotilla, and as such was on several important raids. This boat was started at $10,000 and auickly bid up to $18,000, at which price she was taken by ML. J. Brandt, of Baltimore. Side-wheel Commodore: Barney, length 143 feet. The Barney is also a purchased boat, and has been mostly employed since her purchase on the North Atlantic squadron, doing duty most of the time in lower part of Chesapeake Bay, on the James, and in the North Carolina sounds, under the command of Lieut. Williams’ and Livingston. She was started at $10,000, and knocked off at $13,500, to the’New York and Brooklyn Ferry Company, from whom she was originally purchased about two years since, The side-wheeler Morse, 143 feet, formerly attached to the North Atlantic Squadron, which has a new boiler in her, was started at $10,500, and after some very spirited bidding, she was kkocked off to the t Boston Ferry Company for 925,510. The Crusader, 169 feet long, which was pur- chased for and served in the Paraguay expe- dition and afterwards fitted ont_by Captain Maffit, since of the rebel pirate Florida, and under his command was a very efficient yessol in-capturing slayers in the West Indies, was started at $5,500, and finally bid off to Thomas P. Morgan, of this city. The side-wheel Thomas Freeborn, formerly a New York tug, which was purchased among the first by the Government, and which has been in active service on the Potomac ever since, at one time under the command of the lamented Captain Ward, who was killed in the summer of 1961, near Mathias’ Point, where an attempt was being made to effect a landing, Was started at 34,000 and bid up to $13,000, Mr. Anthony Raybold, of Delaware city, being her purebaser. The Anacostia, familiarly known as the “Old Gray Mare,” purchased originally for the Par- aguay expecition, and subsequently used as a tender to the yard, until the commencement of the war, when she went into service on thd flotilla, was. sinrted at $2,000.and knocked off td Mr. Thomas C. vde, of Philadelphia, for $3,300. The propellor Verbena, 73 feet long, and but eighteen months old, was started at $5,000, and atter some ee bidding, was knocked off.to Mr. W. E. Gladwick, of New York, at $8,950, The propellor Henry Brinker, 82 feet long, With double engines, and nearly new, was started at $4,000, and soid to J. S. Howell. of New York, for $5,200. } ; The propellor Dragon, 92 feet long, and near yas com: The schooner.Adolph Hugle, 109 feet long; and incomplete order, was put fup and starte; at $4,000, when the bidding became very spir-. ited, and in a short time she was run up ta $12,500, and taken by Resin A. Robinson, of Absecom, N. J. } The schooner Bacon, 95 feet in Jength, was started at $3,000 and run up to $5,700, Mr. Wm. White, of New York, being the purchaser. The Banshee, 213 feet long, and steel-plated, said to be yery fast, was put up, but there be- ing no bid of $30,000, (the Government ap- peepee she was not sold. The Yankee ikewise did not receive a bid of $6,200, nor the ety of $7,000, and they consequently were not sold. i The entire amount realized was $121.300, and the sale is considered a very successful one; The prices obtained were all above what wag expected, and in some instances they wer nearly 50 per cent. better. Those presen: seemed to think that better prices could not haye been obtained in any other part of the country. { It is expected that another sale of vesselg will take place here in about three weeks, THE SOUTH CAROLINA DELEGATION. The delegation composed of Gov. B. F. Per; ry, J... Orr, formerly Speaker of the U. S, House of Representatives, C. J. Elford, J. W, Grady, W. ¥. Leitch, and F. Blodgett, which, arrived a few days since from South Carolina, had an interview with President Johnson yess terday. The delegation started for Washing; ton to ascertain what might be done towards reorganizing the State government, and while on the way, Mr. Perry, for the first time, learned of his appointment as Provisional Governor. i The interview yesterday waa a very agreeas ble one. Formality was dispensed with, and the subjects under consideration were freely discussed. The delegativn propose to unite with Governor Perry in reorganizing the State Government, and will at ounce take gteps to abolish the parishes, to elect Presidential elecs tors by the vote of the people instead of the Legislature, to ratify the amendment to the Constitution abolishing slavery, and to estab+ lish a Government in consonance with the principles of the National Government, ang the free States. H Governor Perry last night: prepared a proc Jamatior, which was sent to South Carolina to-day, to be issued at once calling fora con» yeution to be held on the third Monday in No- 5 vember, the election for delegates to take place on the first Monday of the same month. } OLD CAPITOL PRISON. t Frederick Clinton was arrested and commit+ tea tothe Old Capitol Prison yesterday, for ap> pearing in the streets in the uniform of a Brig- adier General, and having in his: possessio: pers.

DICT IN THE MARY HARRIS CAS Ose ey of the juryin the case of Mary J. s for. the killing of Adoniram J. Bur- Troughs was not unexpected. Juries—and they but reflect popular sentiment—in cases where they believe woman to be wronged, are pretty sump, if the exact letter of the statute law will not justify an acquittalyto fall back upon the unwiitten law} or tbe law as they think it should be, rather than as it is. This being the admitted state of facts, the question arises whether it 1s not quite time that our criminal code should be revised, and itbe made somewhat nearer an exponent of public sentiment. This effected, we may hope fo see our criminal trials relieved of the tedi- ous process of building up paroxysmal and dysmenorrhea insanity defences in behalf 6¢ good looking young women who shoot incon- stant lovers. In this case, it will have ap- peared, both the defence and the prosecution positively denied that the honor of the prisoner had been wronged; the injury was one of the heart. THE CAVALRY CORPS. The last regiment of the cavalry corps at- tached tothe Department of Washington left for home yesterday. The headquarters of the commanding general were broken up last night, and the corps has ceased to exist. Gen. Whittaker, commanding the corps, will pro- ceed home and report by letter to the Adjutant Generat. The General entered the service as a private in the 2d New York cavalry, (Harris Light,) the regiment in which Major General Kilpatrick was Lieut. Colonel, and Major Gen. Davies and Brig. Gen. Duffie were majors. PARDONS. Nearly two hundred applications for pardon were received again to-day at the Attorney General's Office, all of which, with few excep- tions, were from the $20,000 class. Among the applicants are Neil S. Brown, ex-Goyernor of Tennessee, and Judge Ridley, ex-Chancelior of thesame State. Captain Edwin Wilmer, Provost Marshal of Delaware, sentenced to the ‘ penitentiary some time since by Court Mar- tial, and George Hood, sentenced to the peni- tentiary for passing counterfeit Treasury notes, are among those pardoned. RESIGNED. The resignation of Thomas U. Walter, archi- tect of the Capitol extension, has beenaccepted by the Secretary of the Interior, Edward Clark, formerly a student of Mr. Walter, who has been acting with bim during the progress of the work, takes charge temporarily of the architect’s department, sub- ject to Major B.

There has been so much discrepancy of state- ment in regard to certain remarkable scenes in the court room yesterday, that we subjoin an accurate verbatim report-thereof: Mr. Carrington said: Thereare four questions submitted to you, gentlemen of the jury, for your decision. ist, Was this homicide charged im the indictment committed by the prisoner at the bar; 2d. Was it committed within the juris- diction of this court; 3d. If it was, is it = case of excusable homicide upon the ground of insanity or any other reasop; 4th. If not excu- sable homicide, is it murder or is it man- slaughter! I propose to consider these ques- tions seriatim. I will consider the first two propositions together; and in doing so I haye only to briefly recapitulate the evidence. The curtain rises; the scene is laid at a board- ing house in the oy of Chicago. The heroine of the bloody tragedy makes her appearance. A good, sprightly, black haired girl. She was without either father or mother at that time It is then she forms the acquaintance of Louisa Devlin, another beautiful, charming, and ac- complished lady. Louisa Devlin invites her to go to her millinery establishment. Prompt- ed by an “insane impulse” she accepts the in- vitation. [Laughter.] What sort of a milli- nery establishment was it? I wanted to find. out, and in the most courteous and respectful: manner, for no one is more courteons to a lady than myself, I asked her how many young ladies she had in her employment. She threw herself back on her dignity and said, “That is my business, and none of yours.” There is Mary Harris ina millinery establishment, the character of which the proprietress is ashamed to describe. Judge Hughes.—Miy it please your Honor, 1 dislike to interrupt counsel, but where in a closing argument the evidence is clearly mis- stated, an interruption is not only tolerable, but itis the duty of counsel, whose client is affected thereby, toso interrupt. There is no evidence here whateyer a3 to the character of Miss Devlin’s house, It is true the District Attorney did ask her how many persons she employed in.her house, and she replied “That is my business.” An ap; Court, and the Court acted her to answer the question, but a discuseion springing up at the time, the question was lost sight of, and no answer was given. The District Attorney.—May it Please your, Honor, I did not interrupt counsel in their ar-' gumentand I hope they will net in mine. If I misstate the evidence, which your Honor knows I will.not do intentionaliy, 1 haye no doubt you, sir, will correct me. The Court.—A counsel in the closing argn- ment, knowing thatthere is noone to come after him,ouhgt to studiously keep himself within the. prescribed limits, unless he wants to be inter- rupted at every stage. He ought not to pervert or misstate the evidence—I do not mean to say that you haye done so in this case—but I do: think that there is nothing in the refusal of Miss Deylin toanswer that question to justify. the suspicions which haye been inferred by the counsel. The District Attorney.—Is that a question of law, your Honor ? j The Court—(with emphasis.)—It isa ques-' tion of law, sir. The District Attorney.—Gentlemen, after the, attack, which has been made upon Dr. Bur- roughs— { The Court— (very earnestly.)—Yor shall not retaliate upon Miss Devlin for an attack upon! Dr. Burroughs. You must confine yourself to, the legitimate application of your remarks to) the evidence of the Miss Deylins. It is ani abuse of your position to make such an attack as that upon such grounds. ; The District Attorney.—What had I saidp muy it please your Honor. i The Court.—You know, sir. ; The District Attorney.—You had not heard,! sir, for I had not completed the sentence. What lL intended to say was this: That after the at- -tack, which had been made upon Dr. Bur roughs by the learned counsel, had I not a right (they justifying that attack upon the tes- timony of the Misses Devlin,) to attack her tes- timony. The Court.—You shall not retaliate upon the Misses Devlin. You haye a perfect right to at- tack the Miss Devlin’s testimony as to its in- consistency, either with itself or with the oth-) er evidence, but to launch out in sucha latis tude of inference as that you were going upon, in regard to the character of tne house of the Misses Devlin, whose reputation has not bee: attacked, either for truth or in any other re~ spect, I cannot permit it ina closing argu~ ment. The District Attorney.—You will bear in mind, gentlemen of the jury, that I did not iny terrupt the learned counsel. You heard the attack upon Dr. Burroughs, of which I shalk have something to say after. You know [ must not dare tolay my fingers on the Misses lin. De Court.—The Court did dot say so. I will not permit you to misrepresent the Court or | the witnesses. The Court has giyen you ex- ress permission to comment upon all the evi-+ lence given by the Misses Devlin, and com- pare it with itselfand the other evidence in the case, and sift it to your heart’s content; but upon the mere refusal of one of those ladies tell you how many clerks she had im her plac: of business, the urt will not permit you to launch out m the great latitude of inference you were going upon. . < H The District Attorney.— With the permission ofthe Court, and you, gentlemen of the jury, I will say that I do not think any witness cons tradic' Dr. Burroughs. They justify th attackimpon him from inferences. drawn fro: what he said. I Shout I had the same privi lege, but I bow with due deference to the de cision of the Court. In this case, as im ever, ether, I intend to discharge my duty in thi tear of God, and without the fearof.man, Ni man can say With truth that I was ever tocower or to falter im the discharga of my duty. , Oath Cou Well yousal not goa in betveen you and tbe Rem conae eet You not utter another syllable on that al was made to the; ject. I will pnt you in the hands of th Marshal if you do. The District Atwrney.—Again, I sny, and I will endeavor to argue under the mstructions of the Court. The Court.—Well, proceed { The District Attorney.—4 will proceeéf * The Caurt.—In order. The District Attorney.—1 was about te argue as to ube inference to be drawn from the testi- mony of the woman Devlin, her manner, and her answer tothe question which I pnt, which I thonght was competent, but I understand his Honor to say I was wrong in that opinion. Judge Hughes.—I hope * suggestion from me may assist the District Attorney in the dis- charge of his duty here. I have no disposition to embarrass him, in his argument, and I am sure that he must be able to perceive the awk- wardness that results from keeping up & con- troyersy of this sort, and I trust he will con- fine himself to the evidence, and relieve me of the necessity of any further interruption. As to attacks upon Dr. Burroughs, they were le- gitimate in the case, and I expect him to make such @ reply to our argument on that point as may seem proper. The Court.—It was a yery unpleasant thing for me, and I was yery reluctant to interrupt counsel in the course of argument, and would not have done soin this case, although I ob- served the impropriety of it, had it not been called to the attention of the court by the coun- sel on the other side. This is a case of the greatest importance, and I am reselyed that it shall be conducted orderly and properly, and eepeciay, am determined to see that the coun- sel for the United States, who so ably repre- sents the interest of the Government here, en- dowed with natural gifts of eloquence and power with the jury, shall not in a closing speech travel beyond the limits assigned to counsel on these occasions. Mr. Carrington, leaving this branch of the argument, proceeded with his remarks. Mr. Carrington, in referring, in another por- tion of his speech, to the causes which actnated the accused to commit the homicide, said: It was hatred and jealousy, for she told her law- yer that her love had turned to hatred; and, gentlemen, it was money. She did not want money, but Lonisa Deylin did. I say, not- withstanding the euloginm pronounced npon her, that she is a woman without delicacy, without refinement, and without sensibility, for during this trial she has sat here giggling while her friend was on trial for her life, as though she were in Quincy street, Chicago, at the house of Ellen Mills. Yar. Bradley.--May it please your Honor, I denonnce such an accusation in the strongest terms that man can. There has not been one word of reproach cast upon Miss Deviin from the beginning to the end of this trial, and I de say that no gentleman would use such lar- guage towards a woman. The District Attorney.—I shall not be pro- voked, ifthe gentleman’s object is to insult me, into any impropriety. I baye only discharged my duty as in my hnmble judgment seemed proper. I might make the same remark in regard to the attack on Dr. Burroughs. : Mr. Bradley —The man who denounces this woman without the evidence in the case war- ranting it, trespasses beyond the license of counsel, and abuses the character of a gentle- man. The District Attorney.—All I have to say is that I return the insult. Mr. Bradley.—You can return the insult as much as you please. je The Court.—Mr. Carrington, the Court will not permit you to go on without expressing a strong condemnation of language of that kind, which it thinks entirely without foundation in the evidence. «Mr. Bradley, (to the Court.)—Thank yon, sir. The District Attorney.—Will your Honor be kind enough to make some remark of that de- scription. in regard to the attack upon Dr. Bur- roughs? The Court.—That occasion has passed. 1 understood the attack upon Dr. Burroughs to be confined to the character of his evidence, compared with itself, and compared with the evidence of other witnesses, 1 thought that it was a pretty severe investigation to be sure, but then it was not a mere calling of names and denunciation without evidence to support it of some kind, whether sufficient or not. To think that this denunciation npon the Misses Deylins moral reputation, outside entirely of the evidence in the case, ought not to have been made, and is deserving of the strongest and severest censure which the Court can declare. I had hoped, Mr. Carrington, that you would not go beyond what you knew, and especially in regard toa female witness, who is here, to all appearances, without a protector. Mr. Bradley.—And who challenges the closest investigation as to her character, and I speak with the authority of gentlemen of the highest reputation in this country. The Court.—I do not wish to prejndice the case at all by what I have said, either one way or the other, and I hope the jury will not so regard it. The District Attorney.—I thought I was en- tirely justified by the evidence. I may be wrong, but 1 think my attackis not half so severe as that made upon Dr. Burroughs. The Court.—You must not retatiate updn the Misses Devlin. Mr, Bradley.—This witness is introduced under my protection. I am responsible for in- troducing her asa lady of i aia and char- acter; and I regard the attack upon her as an attack upon me. I know her from the reputa- tation of men of the highest character in this country. Lreferto Mr. Armstrong, of Balti- more, andto Mr. Shoemaker, of Adams’ Ex- press Company, and others. The District Attorney.—I refer to the whole city of Chicago in regard vo the Rey. Dr. Bur- roughs. When he is denounced I thought it was my duty to expose prapert the testimony of the Misses Devlins. The Judge thinks I have gone too far, and so does Mr. Bradley. L will say, gentlemen, that it is not material to this case whether you believe either the Misses eva or Dr. Burroughs, or discard both of em. Mr. Carrington then proceeded to discuss the third proposition. At the close of the argument mutual explana- tions and apologies followed on the part of Mr. Carrington and Mr. Bradley. —__»—__ Affairs in Georgetown, CanaL.—Business continues actiye along the entire route.
