Unconstitutionality of the Tax Sales. A ease of considerable importance has iest been decided in the Third Jud'cirj (i limit, by Juige John T. Ureen, in .rhiv-li the recent ect of the Legislature "to provide a summary" mode for purchasers of lands at tax "sales being put into possession," is declared unconstitutional aud void. The circumstances of the case, as given by the Charleston Ntw*, are as follows: Certain lands of Mrs. Kate McMillan and others were sold for taxes in June, 1872, under the oct of 1*72, and were purchased by IiOuLs Jacob?. The first owners of the property, through their attorney, S. W. Maurice, E-,q., made application to Julge Green for a prolrihition to restrain ti o sheriff from proceeding under the act A tcmpoary injunction wasgranted, which, after argument, was made perpetual and absolute by a formal decision. The argument of Mr. Maurice was very exhaustive and complete. His main points were as follows : That the act of 1672, under which the sale was made, is a "bill for raising revenue," :.iwl originated ia the Senate instead of the House of llepresentatives, as required by the Constitution of the State. That the act is unconstitutional, because it rHutcs to more than one subject, and th.ar<the.subjects are not expressed in thtf title. That the effect of the act of 1873, as w jil as that of 1872, is to deprive the citizen of his property without the judgement of his peers or the law of the land. That the act of 1872 undertakes, upon its fitoc, to amend a repealed statute. That the same act, upon its face, authorizes only the sale of forfeited: lands, whereas the land was sold as delinquent land, and hence the sale was void for want of authority. The point was also mado that a tax deed, if for delinquent lauds, must be sealed with the private seal of the officer who executes it. If for forfeited lands, the title to which is iD the Government, then it must be in the fir ui, and'possessed of the characteristics, ' of a grant under the great , seal of the State, signed by , tlie Governor and countersigned by the Secretary of State. Other grounds were taken in the argument of the counsel, but the court, without euteriug upon the consideration of those, granted the injunction, upon the broa'i principle, uia ?ow? w- dww Constitution, (article I, section 14,) "that no person shall' be arrested, impri.-'ored, despoiled or dispossessed of bis property, immunities or privileges, put <ut of the protection of the law, cx* i!oJ or deprived of his life, liberty or estate, but by the judgement of hb peers or the law of the land." ? 11 &ajt* A Chinese paper is to be started in Han Francisco. Wc have placed it on our exchange list. Of course this necessitates the learning of another language by our loci1, lie is already conversant with three, English, Irish and Scotch, but h is no objection to adding to his linguistic acquirements. He has hunted up all the accessible text books on the 'celestial tongue. They eonsist of two tea boxes from Geo. Watcrhouee, the covers of seven packs of fire crackers from Mrs. Morelli; two willow patcrn plates from J. Apple; a letter of Horace Greeley, written duriug the recent campaign and a tac simile of the autograph of dtufus Choa'. With these he will be ready to translate all the current news of Hong Kong arid Pekin and steal the jokes, to be found in our new exchange. Sale of Forfeited Lauds. The comptroller gcucral has decided th.it forfaited lands cannot be sold at the treasurer's sales for a loss amount than the penalties and taxfcs. The sale of 1872 i held to have been a special sale, at i iiich they cculd be sold to the highest bidder. As many wiles were made ut the r 'cent sale in this county for sums very much lc.-s thuu the taxes and costs the question as to their legality is now raised. Wo cannot sec how the auditor can deli? cr deeds for them. I The"Assessment for 1873. A* new assessment of the real and pcrwmI property of the state will be made this year. Our county auditor gives the l.rr.iwxr nntip>> tn nnmnrtv nwnm in ?n. i other Column. We urge upon our peo- i pic the importance of making prompt ami fill! returns. Especially should they l?e careful to bound their lands properly, i If this were generally done a large ] amount of land which has always escaped taxation would be discovered. We tbiuk our auditor sincerely desires te get up a c Ji ioct duplicate this fall. He can do so < ii he is aided by the well di8}>oscd citizens. The Glorious Fourth.

C. Mayo and his wife. 1 The happy couple bore the congratula- 1 tions of their, friends with becoming confusion^ just as though only a quarter : of an hour had elapsed, in stead of a 1 quarter of a century, since the ceremony ; had been performed. The following poem, by H. 0. Judd, was read! by J. 0. Thompson: TIME'S RAVAGES. 'Ah me!' said she, and s ightly sighed, "Surely I'm growing old j These tresses once my joy and pride Bleud silver with their gold.1'' r "TUmnlfH where eunid'hcld his court. And whence he shot hts arrows, Time ruthlessly^?or is it sport ? Is plowing with his harrows." "These eyelids had a tender way Of droopihg a* wflh passion ; A trick that on! jr vwrtb can -play, And age finds out of fashion."' "A rose-bud month they said was mine,. Inlaid with seedling pearls," A casket held almost divine By all?except the girls. But even pearls grow dim with years? Strangely, with constant fretilng? "Mine, after much of pain and tears I've saved, by golden set ing.,' "This chin, round, firm but delicate. No feature was so charming In early days?sadly of late Its fullness grows alarming. "Swan like" they termed my fair white throat. With Juno's bud and shoulders," I tear "passe" would be the vote To day of all beholden. But neither age nor time can steal My heart, still warm away; Who stole it once I shan't reveal! It ne'er came back?to stay. And for a score of yaars sad more, With children round m? growing, Breams of the halcyon days of yore Have seemed less bright or glowing. And I'm consent tho' youth has fled, And beauty too has faded, That winters that have bleached the head, The heart have not invaded.

"A Nation loving gold murt rule this place, Our temples ruin, and our htcs deface." t' Dbyde.n The good people of Beaufort, having been advised of the sailing of the hostile fleet for Port Royal, very naturally to<?k counsel together as to the course to be pursued by them, in the event of the reduction (now, no longer doubtful,) of the batteries at the entrance of the harbor. It must be borne in mind that almost the entire male population was away? nearly all being at Buy Point, where orders had been given prohibiting leave of absence to any one; and from which point, retreat, in case of disaster, was thoughtimpossible. Tho people in town were thus thrown entirely upon their own resources, as well in the matter of advisability, as of practicability of removal. It is welt known that several (few however,) were in favor of remaining; but thev were so largely overruled, that their oounsels were of no avail; a small number ...nlnA/l romnin in nnv not for" I VOVI ? VU w 1 VUJH IM >U v. J the purpose of welcoming the invaders ; but, compelled by circumstances growing chiefly out of conciderations of comfort and convenience to themselves. Nor was it couiectured, that on the approach of armed soldiery, the retirement of women and children, would be construed as a voluntary resignation of their estates into the hand of said soldiery; least of all, that it would be deemed a political ofTcncc meriting the forfeiture of whatever might thus l?e lefl by the retiring non-combatants. It had been customary for families, at their pleasure, to go abroad, entrusting their interests and their effects to the care of faithful servants, not having a thought that, by so doing, they should in any wise, invalidate their rights. Indeed, it has been the practioe of modern times to notify nor* combatants 'of intentions to shell, in order &c., that they might retire. These, anticipating bombardment,-and, by no- means, sure of the customary notice, ^retired without awaiting the usual fbrm. In this was found the great offence. Tidings of the arrival of the fleet in the waters of Port Royal, not only set at rest the question of destination, but of ultimate result. The anxiety already existing iu Beaufort, now much enhanced by confirmatory intelligence of the maguitude of the armada ; and the presence, too, of a fine steamer ready to take all who might desire to go, added to the exhortations and entreaties of those about to leave, soon moved the feelings ot the few who proposed to remain-, aiad a general stampede ensued When the troops from Bay Point, including, of course, the Beaufort Artillery reached towu on Friday, they found it, already, almost deserted. Lieut. Johnson had remained on the island, directing the transportation to St. Helena, until after midnight, and, with T. B. Chaplin, had returned to Trenchard's Inlet, before daydawn, in search of Exhausted and missing men. lie did not reach Beaufort till sunset on Friday. Landing at i'i ? foot of Carteret s\, (now Bennett's dock.) he looked in vain for one living- creature, human or other, throughout the length of Bay st. Walking up as far as the Arsenal, then turning down Craven, to Fast St., hr did not meet one porson until he hud nearly reached the bridge on Federal alley. There he encountered two German mechanics, who informed him of the time and manner ot the citizens departure. They also were just about todcavc, on foot. Tlic name of one citizen has been mentioned, who did not leave town until Saturday *; and I kuow two others who, having led it, revisited it ou that day. From this brief narrative it may be learned that the abandonment of the tow a was complete, and that it was xcoomplishod under the advice and lirection of our elder citizens only, the poungcr men, as mentioned shore, being ibseut on duty. There is no evidence of iny military order compelling the ovaouation of the place; but many declare that they left under the oonviction that there was such an order. It is a matter of no sonsequenoe, as such an act had neve^ been deolared unlawful, with or without inch order. -The right to k$ve one's swn, at pleasure; has always been uninestionable. If a householder retires 10 bed without seeming his dsore, and i burglar enter and "spoil bis bouse,". :ht misadventure is charged to his own leglect; indeed, some spiteftd wretch night even say, "sirred Hni right }x' but who will justify the burglar's act? V (unless, hiuif elf of the.burglar fratern will uphold him as having done "what he had a right to do ?" Is pickpocket on the railway train just in plying his vocation, because, forec the weary traveller has no business as!
