CONSTITUTIONAL POWE The World quoted Mr. Jefferson a« authority for the dictum that our political system reserves to the sey- oral Btates ** every power purely domestic,” and that i “The Federal is, In trath, our forelgn government, whiod de. | Enme_,l wlone in taken from she sovereigutly of the separate ‘We meot this with indisputable citations from the Constitation itself, wherein power Is given to Congress to protect inventors sud wuthors by patents and copyrights; to eoin money; (o establish post-offices snd post-roads ; and to blish uniform laws on the subject of bankruptcies; while, by that same instrument, the Btates are forhidden to coin money, pass bills of attainder or ez post fucto 1aws, orimpair the obligationof contracts, &e. Surely, here is enough to prove The World mistaken—and Mr. Jefferson too—in sssorting that ** the foreign depart- ment alone is (aken from the sovereignty of the separate States. The World quotes Mr, Jefforson as writing from Paris to E. Carrington (Aug. 4, 1787) that ours under the old Confederation was *‘tho best government ox- fsting, or that ever did exist,” That was, doubtloss, | fes | comes from the Senate, big with | sehemes of the City oliicials, we M, Jefferson's opinion; but the country held quite another; and this prevailed fn the framing and adop- tion of the Federal Constitution, Mr. Jefferson fur- ther wrote that— My general plan_would be, to make the States one as to every- thing connected with foreian nations, and severalas (o everything purdy domestic.” We haven't & doubt of this, Only it so happens that Mr. Jefferson did not frame the Federal Consti- tation, and it was not conformed to his views, but to those of Franklin, Washington, Roger Sherman, | Hamilton, Madison, &e., which were quite difforent. Madison afterward bowed to tho magnetism of his personal ascendancy, and wrote the famous Virginia resolves of 1799, of which, alter Jeferson’s death, he made so unkappy an attempt to explain away the meaning. But the Constitution is oue thing, and the resolves of '98 and '09 quite another; though Mr. Jefferson—having very positive notions a3 to what the Constitution should be, provided we must have a Constitution, (which he did n't want)—afterward as- sumed, asserted, or argued, that the actual Constitu- tion was the camel, or weasel, or whalo, that he would hevo bad it. The World is constrained to substitute an issue of its own invention for that whereon its discomfiture is so polpable. Premising that certain of the internal powera accorded to Congress by the Constitution wero granted to it likowise by the old Articles of Confed- eration, it agks— * Was ever anybody rash enongh, or bardy enough, to main- “twin that the Articles of Coufoderation ABSORBRD the domestic Jjurisdiction of the States 1" —With a disputant who thus puts into the mouth of his antagonist whatever words promise to serve his own purpose, we prefer to part company. TRE TAX LEVY. ‘We have taken occasion, from day to day, to speak of different items in the City and County Tax Levy now beforé the Legislature. A systom of reckless ex- travagance, waste, fraud and robbery, has sprung up within the Jast ton or fifteen years that is frightful to contemplate, and, unlese ntl‘ootna(ly checked, our City must become bankrupt. The following table shows the fearful and rapid increase of taxation: Popalation. Tazes. Por head. 202,850 $509.178 251 270,080 965,602 351 -312,072 1,904, 433 &2 2,006,001 564 15,794 3,230,055 626 630,009 5,067,275 708 L713,000 5,843, 8 19 748,650 6,932,557 10 5 1865, H0,000 15,000,000 25 At this rate of increase, the taxes, in 15 years from this time, would be $108,000,000 per annum, sud, in 30 years, $648,000,000. 1, in 1850, we had been told that in 1865 our taxes would be $18,000,000, it would not have seemed more wonderful than to now state that in 1820 they would be $10%,000,000. Our corrupt rulars bave, in addition to all this, run the City in debt about §50,000,000 all told. But enongh of argument. Corruption and fraud must be put down, Although the conspirators who rule our City have bound us hand and foot, and are robbing us on all sides, yot thoy have not been able to buy up all the people of the State. In our Legislature are to be found many bright and shining lights—many honest and true men., While the *“Ring™ bhas its tools and agents, both in the Ronate and in the House (aud we have our eyes upon them), the country has its good and true men also there; and to these last we look in this our bour of need. The mechanie and laboring man, as well as the cap- italist and merchant, look to them; and in all tever- ence and sincerity we thank God that there is a power somewhere which is eapable of protecting us. In this conneetion, we call the attention of each member of the Legislature to the very clear and able snalysis of the Tax Lovy wade by the Citizens’ Asso- ciation, The Tax Levy is the most important matter that comes before the Legidature, aud no other matter demands or needs fuller or more thorough considera- fion thau tho New-York Tax Lovy.

An amendment hae heen gmuggled into the City Tax Levy, in the Lower Homse at Albauy, which covers the guietest and at the same time the heaviest swindle that our h-enduriug tax-payers have yet scen. The job of widening Ann-st.—a rotten day’s work of an expiring Mayor and Common Connei seomied until now certain of abortion, from that snleguard of the luw which probibits the fiual confir- mation of the report of the Commissiouers if one-half tho property-holdors affected oppose it. This whole- sale confiscation of property for the benefit of a rail- road and a few private individuals must have failed under the law. For by the law the Commissioners of Estimate and Assesment are bound to assess, for the benefits conferred by auy street improvement of this kind, not cnly enough to pay all demage inflicted, Dbut enough to cover all their own expenses in addi- tion. This would have made it the interest of the owners of uineteen-twentieths of the property affectod 10 oppose the confirmation of the final report of the | THE METROPOLITAN BOARD OF e e e 1and, #o far as the same shall be in excess of asscssments benefits thereto after the same shall be determined by the Com missfoners of Estimate and Assessment, and the report of such Comwissioners confirmed by said Court. Such bonas ehall be issued {n the same manner and form as othier bonds of tho sald (I;':ly‘u“muld. mn:nug l:'lot leas than tweuty years, and aring interest at the rate of seven por cent per agu - ooy, "Tha. proceeds of the, sule of such honds shiali be paid into the City Tressur: all be disbursed from timo t0 time as may b required or the said purpose, and for no other, The Bosrd of Supervisors of said County shall annoally Dy tax, for the payment of the anonal interest of said boids, sum sulliciont for that purpose; aud tho yoar pre- teding the maturity of said bonds & snm shali be in like manner Taised sufiiciest {0 poy the principal of said bouds.” The law of 1816 says: “And the sald suma and estimates of compensation and re- and reimbursed to the said Mayor, y, by the persons and partics inter- ested and entitied as owners or otherwise unto or in the lao tenoments, heraditaments and premises deomad to be benefl by :g’al;wnm‘. xtending, enlarging,” &o.—{ Valentin's Laws, The law of 1839 provides that ““on the application for the confirmation of the report of the Commission- ers of Estimate and Assessment,” “1f, upon hearing such application, s who appaar by or award for damages, to the amount of a_majority in smonnt of the whole assessmoots and awards, shall appear aud object to further proceedings upon the said report, the Court shall order the same to be discontinued, and the same shall shonoe- forth be discontinued.”—( Valentine's Laws, p. 1,223, The thing is simple: silence the men whose land is taken by paying them twice what their property is worth; silence the men whoso property is benefited by assessing them but half the actual benefit, Or, if that is not enough, pay three times and assess one- third, Who cares? City bonds will cover thg diffor- ence, bo it two millions or be it three. But this is not all. Those who have watchod the movements in real estate while commissions of this kind are sitting, understand how much money is suddenly acquired by the lucky ones who happen to know that house and lot No. 5 wiil be assessed lightly, that heavy damages will be awarded on No. 30, and, that the Commiseioners will reconsider their present determination to assess No. 50 $40,000 and will re- dnco the agsessment to $10,000. Such little arrange- ments, which have placed these commissions among the most lucrative offices in the City, have hitherto had one limit; the assessments for benefit must in all cases equal the awards for damages, and there must not be sufficient injustice to disgust & majority of the property-owners. Not so in Now-Broadway. In this paradise of plunder, the two millions’ worth of property to be taken, may be bought for threo by those who some how have an idea that the Commissioners will award five for it. ‘We may now cease to wondor why Judge Barnard appointed on this commission not one of the gentle- men propozed by the property-holders, not one of the gentlemen proposed by Mr. O'Gorman on behalf of the City, and we may understand why his appointees wore his own father-in-law, the representativo of the chief of Mozart Hall (who is a large property-holder in the vicinity of Ann-st. at present, if not prospect- ively & larger), and the representative of a still larger property interest, and one which might otherwise have been fatal at Albany to the success of this precious job. i ———— The President’s communication in reference to Oaths of Office that were not taken in the Southern States, will meet with popular comment on one or two points. First, the President, with several of his Cubinet, blankly acknowledge tbat they have dis- obeyed & positive law of the land in appointing to offica prosupposed enomies of the Governmout who conld not take the oath of loyalty. Second, it is averzed that such disregard of the law was necessary to collect the revenue and run the mails. * No one,” says the official dispateh, * could have regretted more than the President and Cabinet the necessity which existed for this course; but there seemed no alterna- tive; and it was confidently hoped that, under the cir- cnmstances of the case, it would be approved by Con- gresa,” This looks like begging the question. The public will wonder, in view of the severe overstrain of soveral vetoea to prove the Freedmen's and Civil Rights bills unconstitutional, bow it camo to pass that the President himself could break so plain a law. But their surprise will not cease here. If it was necossary to modify the law in order to collect the revenue, why was not Congress at once summoned to ! _— Tho Seccssionists of Texas Lave, by one ruthloss wweep of legislation, resolved that the whole of the great school fund of that Btate shall be exclusively de- voted to White children. Such flowers of spoech that the * school system of New-England was a mag- nificent failure,” and that education itsclf was o questionable blessing, wero absurdly not wanting to decorate this wholesalo sacrifice. There was a propo- sition that colored assessors should be allowed to col- lect a freedmen school-tax; but this fell through under a hoavy majority. The constitutional smendmeat, that “no person shall be a Representative or Senator unless he be a White citizen of the United States, and | a resident of Texas for the last five years next preced- ing his election, was a proper corollary to this sct. The sovereign State of Texas is plainly taking ways and means to educate itself out of the Union sgain; but wao deeply question whetlier it shows even s Machia- vellian prudeuce to legislate against Southern Blacks and Northern Whites at the same time. It is & good way of not educating the Whites to shut the freedmen out of school. How Texas mekes an oracle of its White Ignoramus !

Inspector Exrrsox made & report upon the dumging- grounds used by the contractors for cleaning the strocta, every ono of which is represented in & villanous condi- tion.
