The memoria! of certain manufacturers against the payment of a tax assessed against them, received by the District Commissioners was at that time referred to the attorney for bis opinion, who, after citing the laws bearing pon the subject of general taxes and exemp bors of manufacturers, say * ©The language of the statute does not admit any ques top as to the previous employment of the property; it refers only to the actual employ- ment subseqnent to July 2¢, 1°73, snd exempts for ten years from all general taxes all property, real and personal, used for manufacturing pur- Beses, provided it exceeds £5,000 in valine.

Davis was chosen secretar: Col ‘ suid that in view of recent events d been determined to call a meeting of the association aiter the lapse of more than a year. Although they had had no meetings recentiy, | the association kas had an existence for years, and a number present he recognized as having been members fer over » thirdof a century. | The call was for business, and they tad not | come here to talk. Their brethren in the states | are doing a great and glorious work. They have risen in thelr might in support of the imperiled rights of the people of the states, and their voice | bas been heard from Obio, Indiana, West Vir- | ginia and Arkansas as the sound of many waters. It becomes @ duty with them, who have been for years under the iron rod of radical rule to express thetr sentiments. These victoriesare not temporary; they are radical—runniug through the people—and already have the wise | and good men been enlisted. They will not go backwards for revolntions never go backwards, | and when the people are again called to the | polls the majorities will be increased. To-night they would present an address to the democracy | of the country and al! friends and devotees of constitutional government, to which they will atk its unanimous appro in this ps Fo | they congratulate our democratic brethren and all others acting with them, on their briiliant | achievements in the elections in the states men. | tioped, and call your and their attention to the | vital interests involved in the present contest | between selfish radicalism and democratic ad- | hetion to correct principles and constitutional | liberty ae understood by the fathers of the rv. public, and inculeated by our great Presidents and statesmen of the Jeffersonian school. The minutes of @ meeting held on the 14th instant, were read and approved. Daniel W. Martin, Wm. Wheatly, Samuel E. | Rabbit and L. Newmyer were propused and | elected membera. | Col. Brooks expressed his sympathy for the cause, and gave some interesting remini-cences | of Jacksomanism in Obio, in which he said he believed that be wasthe first man im that state to espouse the cauce of Jackson. He asked to be enrolled as a member; which was done. Mr. ©. P. Culver, corresponding secretary, read the congratulatory address. | TRE-ADLERSS OF CONGRATULATION, The addrese, a four-page pamphiet (signed by dobp LE. Norris, presideut; U. P. Galver, corre sponding secretary,). sets forth that the noxt Presidential election is one of the most import ant in the history of the country since the adup | tion of the federal constitutioa, resuiting trom | the pelicy pursued by the republican party since the close Of the war, in the unconstitational in- terference in the iniernal affairs of many of the | states, in econtroiling their elections by ovsr- | awing the people in the exercise of the elective franchise, urder the falss plea of hostility to tae authority of the United States, turoagh the ex | ercise of arbitrary power, that they might main- } tain power, and that, ico, at the sacrifice of the | best interests of the American people, and the | time bas srrived for the people, through the bal- | lot box, to assert the limitation of Federal au thority over the states. The democratic party irom the time of Jefferson to Buchanan, ha: maintained that the U. S. government’ pos. sed only delegated authority derived fron e constitu’ Gut on the other h. the re Kean pasty bas exercired authority w par (uate ite power in derogation of the constita mi, b, if maintatned, will lead te the con: ower in the hauds of the goner- al gov nent, and the sovereign states seduce! to nothing mere nor less than provinces, to be cortrolied by federal bayonets whenever it msy be deemed necessary to maintain power. The repnbiican party, in the usurpation of power, has divided a sovereign state, which is expressiy prohibited by the constitution; inter- fered with the rights of the states tu legistating in relation to the elective franchise; constracted states without @ sufficient popniation tor the exprese purpore of amending the constitation, which was revolutionary in its character; es- tablished a judicial power for the purpose of controlling elections; sent ite missionaries int» the south for the purpose of exciting the ns gtoes, hoping thereby to produce a conflict with the whites, that they might beenabied to plonder, and, when detected in their nefarious | designs, they bave called upon the federal gov- | ernment for military interference, so as to | cover up their fraudulent designs, and create | an impression among the northern poopl= that no northern man ean live in the aouth, which 's talse and deceptive. The republican party, when they prociaim themee!ves for the union, mean the ob of state lines the absorption of al the federal government. On the other he: the demecratic party mean by union that t general government sball be confined to it« delegated authority, Jeaving to the states | the fli control of their internal atiairs. | The democratic party will again be called upon y the people to administer the government, i bring it back to the land-marks where Jefferson left it. To accomplish this desirabie | object we sincerely hope that no friend of con pal iiberty, will be led off from his party the miserable and coutemptable sub- terfuige to which the republican party has re- | forted om the eve of every election, through ag adventurers, who have | quatted in the southern states for plunder, by the eries of “*murder” and “kuklux” organize- .

This is not the mptin the bistory of the country to be press. The attempt was made by the ¢ of the sedition law, {n 1708, during tne administration of John Adams, which was pro- nounced by the Supreme Court of the Uaited States unconstitutional, aud which produced the defeat of Joun Adams and tue election of ‘Thomas Jefferson, who brought the government | back to the landmarksof the constitut'on by | strictly adbering to its express delegated aa- | thority, and the country moved onward in peace. }roeperity, and security. The government of | the United States is com posed of three co-ord!- | bate branches—the Executive, the Legislative, | and the Judicial—each of which is independent ofthe other in the exercise of their constita- | tena! functions, which proves conclusively to | every rational mind that the framers of the | constitntion studiously guarded in every essen- 1 tial lar, ths idea of central tion, because it pressiy declared ‘thai | powers not delegated to the General Govern: ent are reserved to the people and the states.

Mr. R. 8. Davis said there were some of the address he could not indorse. ail Enew that nothing was made by calling people bard names, and he thought the people of tue comntry would langh at the ascocistion whea they read the address. It did not seem proper to him for the association to call peopie ‘‘carpet- baggers,” &c., when we have hai thesame kind of government or worse here. The address to bim read more like the opinion of Chas. O"Uoa- ner, Reverdy Johnson, or Jadge Black on the Louisiana affairs. (Mr. Norris.—“Very high aathority.”| What will the people say whea they read the address and copeider how the Dis- trict bas been robbed by the same class of car- pet-baggers as had operated in the South’ They will sey “D—n such people, they had better jook to themselves.” They should call the attention of the country to the manner in ‘which we have been ruled by people from other places, bow the taxes bave been heaped up on us and property ruined.

If there is any city outuide of hell being robbed it was thi: 4 it Was shere nonsense to use such terms as ‘leagues of plunderers” as toother parts of the country. The Chairman.— What is your motion, Mr. Davi Bir. Davis continuing: My motion will bo to refer the addrees to @ committee for revision, ard with instractions to embody the griovances He wished it to go out that the Feopleof the District gre worse ground dowa to-day than the people of St. Petersbar, Constantinople. The whole address reads to Lim like &a extract from one of Prof. Kenue- day's lectures before the Law School. Mr. G. P. Culver said the motion was supar- finous, as the tax payers association, to waom the subject of the grievances of the District be- longed, was considering that subject. Judge Moore.—I would like fo inqnire, ie it isaiab or Webster's phophecy the gentleman does not like? Mr. Davis.—I would leave it to the court. Judge Moore.—Nothing cau be more apropos than Isaiah's words: “The valleysshall blossom ee theroe,” Sc. He waseare ISAIAH WAS A GOOD MAN —both ware goud men. Mr. H. S. Davis said that at the preliminary meeting the auestion came up as to tle griev- ances of the District, and it was decided that it Was not & proper subject for the association. He hoped the address would be adopted, with the quotations of Isaiah and Webster. The motion of Mr. kK. S. Davis was lost, and the resolution of Mr. Moore, adopting the ad- dress, was carried unanimously. Judge Moore offered a resolution directing the chairman to appoint a standing committee of tive, to whom al) resointious shall be referred. H.S. Davis.—That will take all the democ- racy out of the members; they are able to judge ior themeeives. ‘The resolution was withdrawn. Judge Moore offered resolutions declaring that the general government possesses no powers not delegated by the states; that all powers not del- egated belong to the states or people, and dep- recating “the radical doctrine of centralizas fon” as dangerous to the liberties of the coan try which were referred, aud the meeting ad- uurned. ‘Tar Orrics oF Ls oP GAS AND MareKs.—As some strictures in Tus Stax editoriatly lately in regard to the recently ap- poitted inepect0r of gas were written ander the supposition that be had fu'ly entered upon his duties, itis only justice to him to give the fol- owing data showing the facts in the caso and serving to set bim right before the public in the mutter: jaw of Congress, creating the office inspes of’ gas and meters, Wesfapproved June 1, butit wae not until August the 19th, that the inspector waa com- missioned, and on the 21-t of same month he entered upon the duties of the office.

Judge Wylie heard the case on bill of answer and depositions, and dis- missed the bill for want of jurisdiction and without prejudice, and from this decree conr- Plsinact appealed. It appears that Joseph Abbott died in April. 1861, and left willy one clause of which reads: “If m: said) son, Richard, shall die leaving a child or children living at his death, I give and devise to euch chtid or children and their heirs 85 tenants in common, all the real estate here- iuberore devised to my said sou for life; and it my said son shall leave any child which shall die leaving a child or children, then sach child or children of a deceased child living at the death of my said son, shall stand in its or their parent's place and stead, ani have the same share and interest in said real estate its or thet arents would have been entitled to if then li ing. But if my eaid son shall die withoct teay- ing issue living at his death, then I give nnd devise the reat estate hereinbefore devised t> my said son for life, to my said granddanghter and her heigs; and if my said granddanghrer shail die Without leaving issue living at ber death, then I give and devise said lot num: bered one, (1,) in square namboted 225, and the adjoining part of lot nnmbered 2, in said square hereinbefore devised to ber, t0 my sald son \icherd and his heirs, and if my said son and said granddaughter shall both die in the lite. time of said wife without leaving issue living at their death respectively, then I give and devise to my said wife and her heirs all said real estate ae fore devise to my said son for life, and «2% lot nombered one, (1,) in square nam: §, and adjoining part of lot numbered ) in unid square hereinbefore deviaad to i antdaughter.” And it ig om this age the case turns.
