Ia the debate in the House on the District items of the appropriation bill the question of the rate ef taxauon paid in the City of Wash- ington, Mr Lawrence, of Obio, in opposing | those items of appropriation, said: “It isa fact that I desire should be borne in remem- bramce that the taxation for the last nine years in this city has averaged only eighty-six cents upon $100 of taxable property, at a valuation of aot more than one-half its actual value, so that the actual taxation for this city has been less than forty-three cents ou $100, while the con- ststvents of almost every member on this floor have been taxed, instead of forty-three cents, two dollars on $10, or two per cent." Mr. Lawrence doubtless aimed to be accurate im this assertion, but if he will take pains to inquire a little farther he will find that it gives & very incorrect idea of the amount of taxation levied here. Years ago the rate of taxation was low here, 50 cents on the handred dollars, | ithas year by year mounted up until in 1568 it has reached $1.25 upon the hundred dol- | iors; and with the largely increased expendi- ture necessary im the future for improvements | pon a scale commensurate with our needs,and for the support and education of the immense contraband population brought here by the war, itis quite certam, that our taxes will speedily mount to those paid by the most beavily taxed communities of the country. Mr. Lawrence's idea that the rate of assess- ment here is not more than half the value of Property is also erroneous. At the time of the fast general assessment, in 1564, rents were bigh, real estate was up, and the rate of assess- ment was marked up to a pretty high figure, It is doubtless the case that in one or two rap- idly improving localities in the city the value of property has gone up yet higher than assess- ment value, but we are quite certain that in three-quarters of the city this is not the case, snd in fact we believe that a large proportion of the property-holders would be glad to sell at | the rate fixed by the assessors. Tax Worktxo Peorte—aAll the operativis at Sprague’s cotton mills, at Baltimore, Connecticut—the largest in the United States— struck for higher wages yester The mits Stopped work yesterday afternoon. The me- | chanics on the New York Centr: ilroad continue their strike. In Colorado, it is announced that, owing to the g: scarcity of female help, servant girls are getting from $10 to$t5 8 week. The Government is said to be reducing the working force at all the navy yards one third. One bundred and thirty mo- chanics have been discharged this week from Charlestown (Massachusetts) Navy Yard. Forty-three workmen were discharged rom the department of Steam Engi- neering, at the Navy Yard at Portsmouth, on Saturday, and a large number of carpen- ters and other workmen were also discha A strike among the female employes at Clark's thread factory, at Newark, New Jersey, was some time ago reported. It was a strike against & reduction of wages, but a compromise was made, and the girls returned to work.

ENCOURAGING STATE OF Arratrs.—General Howard yesterday received a report from Col. | Sprague, Assistant Commissioner of the Bu- Teau for the State of Florida, in which he states that the conduct of the freedmen has been good, and the prevailing disposition is to devote | themselves to honest industry instead of idling about towns. The past season was discoura. g ng and without reward, but the planters are | encouraged from the disposition among freed. | men to renew their contracts to look w | this as a misfortune only. The conduct of the freedmen during the pohtical excitement | incident to elections and the assembling of the con yention at Tallahassee has been very satis- factory. The influential leaders among the freedmen belonging to the State counseled mod- eration and an obedience to law. ‘Phe resence of the military at Tallahassee | .d @ most salutary influence upon the colored Politicians from Northern States, Colonel | Sprague says.
