Plaintif testified that he ywent to the defendant’s saloon to serve a sum- mons, and that the defendant being provoked by ‘that fact, made an attack upon the plaintiff, in ‘which his bartender assisted, and in consequence yoi which the plaintiff was soverely injured and juch out and bruised, causing the vomiting of jood and confining the plaintiff to his house jor everal days. The delendant testified that the plaintif® was \poisterous in his behavior and make an attack ‘ppon bim, during which tue de.endant was knocked ‘down by the plaintiff, and that his barkeeper qgmerely interiered to protect him. The Court ‘eharged the jury, who found a verdict for the laintim of $5,000, to which the Court added two d @ half per cent allowance. GOURT OF SPECIAL SESSIONS. i Clubbing a Wife. Before Judges Otterbourg, Sherwood and Smith. Mary sullivan and her husband, James, have not been as happy lately as could be wished. James be- came fonder of ardent spiris than he had ever been of Mary and sbe comp.ained of this as intolerable, ‘whew Coupied with the fact that he cluos her now and then for amusement. ‘ihe Court having seen James several times before and heard naughty re- ports of him, sent him to the Island ior three eee Cruelty to Animals. Davia McCormack is a gentleman who does not ‘Vike to see horses abused. He regards them of ‘value, and consequently worthy of consideration, He charged Alexander GruryfMiesch with having felled a horse to the earth by a blow from a bar ‘ofiron. From Mr. McOormack’s statement it ap- jared that the animal was assaulted behind @ ear and seriously, if not fatally injured is testimony was corroborated by several wit- messes Who saw the assault. Alexander was put ‘on the stand to testily in wis own bevall, and told the ollowing story of his wrongs:—‘‘The day be- fore | licked the horse I bought her at the horse jarket up town, aud the day after I licked her I iad to bring her back and sell her for $20, half ‘what I paid for her. When she was in the market @he ran very good, but when 1 got her out she e@lways wanted togo backward, und | had to club yher to muke her move at all. 1 did not hit her with @ bar 0! iron; it was a piece of wire.” Alexander thus lost $20 on the horse, two days’ liberty for treating it unkindly and a fine of $6 for the sup- Pf ol the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty Animals. Honorably Discharged. Some days since a young man named James Moore was arrested on suspicion of stealing a pocket bouk from Patrick Dolan and sent to the Special Sessions for trial. Counsellor Hummel ,@ppeared for nim, and the Court gave him an hon- orable discharge, it having been proved that the risoner was of good family and unblemished putation. COMMISSION OF APPEALS CALENDAR ALBANY, May 16, 1874. ‘The following is the aay calendar of the Com- Mission of Appeals for Monday, May, 18:—Nos. 114, 84, 187, 138, 139, 142, 144, 147, 148, 1 ‘The Commission adjourned until Monday, May 28, at hali-past ten A. M. RADICAL REFORM. Letter No. 3. Tax Eprron oF Tax HERALD:— __ My second letter closed with the proposition that ‘she trades be organized, as of old, with the powers end privileges of corporations. This communica- ‘tion will review that other question of the rights end {interests of the working classes—inflated Mouse rents. The people of this State succeeded ‘to the rights ofa Lora Paramount, They grasped ® sceptre which Blackstone declares that of & “aniversal lord and original proprietor of all the fands of his kingdom. The ultimate lord of every foe, who holds privileges of escheats and pther feodal profits;” this sovereignty succeeded 0 @ right in all its land, in the form of what the Jawyers term an estate in remainder, But the land Renure Of the days of George III. had been aictated by landioras. Shaped at Ruoning Mead and at Bt. Stephens by & rapacious nobility, it embodied Bn overthrow of that which is now an inheritance pf this people, prerogative of the Crown. The Re- public of New York may, thereiore, challenge with propriety that tenure of a class, challenge it with ithe spear of natural justice and the sword of demo- wratic policy in its invasion of the privileges of the povereignty. ‘The encroachments of the British nobles on the ‘yublic right in land have been extended by this NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, MAY 17, 1874.-QUINTUPLE SHEET. State, Ninety years ago the Legislature, blinded Probably by passions of the revolution, passed an act declaring land to be held not in fee but in al lodtum, In that release of certain conditions of property in the soll the biow dealt at the Crown goes to vitiate some of the right hela in land by the sovereignty im the form of an estate in re- mainder. The rights assumed by this people are, however, not only those of succession, ‘The revo- lution plucked all that belonged to the public {rom the grasp of both king and baron. The sovereignty which it bestowed 1s supreme in all the plenitude of the people’s pleasure. It baits not at the limi- tations set upon it by either the nobles of England or the Legislature of New York, but goes on to the full extent claimed by William of Normandy, so far as his assertions of sovereignty are sustained by Natural justice and democratic policy. By suces- sion this people hold in land the rights of a “Lord Paramount,” of @ “Universal Lord,’ of an “Ulti- mate Lord.” What do these rights cover, where can they apply, if private property in the soil go, as claimed by commentators, from the use to the substance ? Again, the original title veats in the State. Much of this being proper to the sov- ereigaty that original title cannot be transierred to the citizen in its entirety. The remainder, that which is inalienable, can assuredly have no resting place, no existence, if the conveyance to the in- dividual extend beyond the use to ‘he substance. Some reservations held by the sovereign in land are express. Including the right of way, the rigat of conde: tion, the right of escheat, the right of forfeiture, these amount in fact to ownership. Em- bracing, oe these reer vations ay at ownershtp covers in tie :tee.h of even the abolition of title in fee, a right which declares a8 broadly as the exaction of peppercorn or mili- tary service, that the lan lord ts but a tenant of the sovereign. The public being, therefore, the owner inalienably of ail land, what can its convey- ance carry with it beyond the right of perpetual use? The soil is part of the sovereignty. Its pro- duct can be transterred by the individual to an‘ Other realm; but, even where the straightening of & fence would make the change, the soil itselt can not. Now, these two facts are themselves suiti- cient to show that the distribution in the title to land stands tnu: ‘he rights of ownership belong to the sovereignty ; to the citizen the rights of use. The price paid to the sovereign for land in this ar is understood by both parties to be nomi- nal. The consideration of their conveyance is, in fact, their settlement, their use. If the lands be withheld from production in jpresonve. ot ismine, the title can be treated as null and void, Like a Corporate franchise, it becomes, not only in natu- ral right, but also by failure of consideration, sub- Ject in that case to forfeiture by non user. Private right in land 1s limited in reagon and the mood of society to its use. And this use is subject to restrictions, to even forfeitures jor the public good. But on grounds of justice and policy it car- ries with it, nevertheless, the mgh¢ growing up under its exercise, the tenant’s right to the value of his improvements. Such appears to be the sub- stance 01 all title held by individuals in land under those interpretations or modifications of # baro- nial tenure called for in the justice and reason of things, by the plenitude of the people’s sover- eiguty. That a remainder inthe value of a city lot belongs of right to the people, is demonstrable by an analysis of the sources of that value. The owner, as he ts called, has, it is true, given the lot its real value; but canit be said that it is he who has given tt ita market value? Certainly not. By their presence, their industry, their taxes, their legislation, thelr protection, this market value in its excess above the real value, is the product of the people. To urge absolute, tutal ownership in the lot in justification of the appropriation ol that excess by the individual, is a violation of right and reason, @ violation of the prerogrative of the sovereign. ‘The public remainder in the prices of realty bg be shown pointedly Bs special Ulustration. in- Hudson county, New Jersey, a boulevard had been undertaken at the cost of the opie. If the expenditure contemplated had een made, estimates snowed that private parties holding titles on the route would have been bene- fited by an enbancement of what is called their property to the extent Of several millions, By what process of reasoning cun it be shown that that enhancement of market values—arising as it would have done from an expenditure of the credit of the public—would have belonged, in natural justice or in arepublican reudering oi law, to a Jew individuals? In Brooklyn a certain area of land Was ten years ago a wiiderness, nut saleable at over @ jew hundred dollurs an acre. Public money tothe amount of miilions was applied to the creation ofa park in its midst, and, benold you, the market value of that wilderness rose to $30,000 or $40,000 an acro! On what principle ot Teason or justice can it be held that the so-called “owners” of those wild lands became possessed of @ right in them at the value of Pruspect Park lots, @ price ninety-nine hundredths of which is the pro- duct oi tne money and enterprise o! the people ? Property should, it is true, be inviolable. Its pro- tection to the last limit of its right does not, how- ever, demand that it be protected in wrong. And beyond property tnere ia eigarty another rignt in realty, a right in remainder, which belongs to the public. As develo;ed by the peopie, that other Figut represents ab actual, an ascertainable quan- tity. Borrowing a term used in a somewhat differ- ent sense in Scottish jurisprudence, that estate in Temainder—representiny the difference between the real and the market value—is designated here, in contradistinction to property, commonty. But the commonty in realty cannot, it may be objected, be asserted because of innocent purchase. Inno- cent purchase was not an iene obstacle to the abolition of slavery. And there is a degree of innocence which pubiic policy cannot suppose. It certainly cannot suppose an innocence which amounts to moral obliquity. The vendor ol a city lot may have sold it on the understanding or rep- resentation that it was exempt irom taxation and from ail public rignts and reservations, the com- monty included; but whether this was done in iraud or accepted in “innocence,’’ the sale cannot Vitiate one tittle of the rights of the sovereign. Rural prices are but little if anything in excess of the value of property. “denial” in settling and clearin, @ tract of land in the wilderness 1s a prima sacie justifica- tion 01 suca @ price as $50 anacre. But the case is very widely diferent in cities, where land sells in the market at the rate per acre of several mill- tons. I propose, therelore, that, holding agricul- tural bol ae | to constitute a right, gvod to the fullextent of the market price, the public shall take steps now to come into the enjoyment of that Which passes in city,values, beyond property, into commonty. An oficial assessment of all city realty onght to be made on the basis of real values. Limiting the interest on the capital representeu by those values at the maximum allowed on money, the product of that interest added to that of @ small percent- age for maintenance, on the value of each parcel Of property, would supply @ just limit on the pri- vate right to rent. ‘'n2 individual protecte: the use of his property and in the full value of its improvements, the public would come thus into the enjoyment of its remainder—its commonty. By a simple justice, a beneficent intervention of the sovereignty between a baronial tenure and the rights of the people, labor would become in this way lightened of burdens that now weigh crushingly on its energies by a reduction of rent— taxation from thirty to forty per cent. of Its toil, to the rate paid under that head in Europe, elgnt or ten per cent. Reserving for my next, my last letter, the ques- tion of restrictions on individual wealth, I have the honor to be, Sir, &¢., &c, “ ‘iM, BUTT HEWSON. New York, May 11, 1874.
