In our lur.t i ssue of August 30th, we published u letter from Comptroller* Oon.-ral Iloge to Hon. S. J. TjCc, in reference to the redemption of lands sold for the payment of tuxes, and forfeited to the State for the want of, bidders, and remarked at the time that it was the intention of Mr. Lee t?test the soundness of the Comptroller's at-, titndc on this subject iu the Courts. Our own views of the matter coincided with those of Mr. l.eo, but as tho sub ject was somewhat obscured by the amount of legislation which has heun had on the tax question for thepast fotfr years, we determined to postpone any expression until pa could embrace the opportunity of critical ly examining the question. This we have done, and the enquiry has satisfied us that the Comp troller is wrong. In the Drstplace, hp seems to labor under a misapprehension ot the law when he broadly asserts that such land? cannot be redeetno 1, and re fers to section 1 OS of the laws of 1808, alleged to have been amended by act of March 12. 1S72. and confirmatory of his ox>inion. Now this section does] not refer1 to forfeited lauds, and was never legally amended by the act refer red to; ami it is ?hange that Mr. Uogo should so believe when he had bcf?>ro him tho Revi-ed Statutes, in which this very fcction. as well as others, of the tax act ol 1 boo wore adopted and made the. law of the State by act of February, IS72, and of f..r<v by the provisions of the Constitution Art. 3, Sec. 22, Tit EX. Pep. At the tiuie of the passage of tho acf j of Maruh 12. 1S.72, no portion of the ' tax act o( 1808 was ot force, ae ofthat year, and tluteloie, w hen the-Legiala turo by Fee. !*. of the former, sought to am:ud Sen. 108 and other sections of tUc latter, it nttcin ptcd to amend a statute that was no lon ger the law of tho ?State, h ving become nullified by the re enactment and adop tion of its provisions in the Code ot Statute law, made tlu; law >f the State by the act and iu the manner before sta ted The Revised Statute? embody all the Statu laws of the Stuto of Torce at the time oTthe tinal r*port of the Com missioners, by virtue of A.

A. February, 1S72, and in legal contempla tion tin sc Statutes ate to he eomider ed as having h? en pased at the same time ?? In constructiifg a rerffM?

Pamphlet acts, 1872, pp. 37. It will bo clearly per ceived, therefore, that the Legislature, in Sec. 1 of tho A et of Mifeh 12, 1872 ignorantly amended an act that was not of force, and that, tho only law in rela tion to the as>c?(meut and collection of . rl I i I a f tf taxes and reddmpfmrr of lands now of force, ii> by virtue of the Act of Februa ry, 1872.

Tho firing was very rapid ; s i rapid, indeed, that many who heard it thought that inoro than two men were engaged in the shooting. The majority of those who were in the neighborhood when the shooting began ran uwuy as fast as their legs would Carry thorn ; but two or three men, yWo jaufthi Cnsltur iu tho iron doorways of Hurkha'ter's store, stood their ground and wilncvsel the w!i de r attic. White fell first, and ntrik ing ffg the edge of the sidewalk, rolled into a gutter about eighteen inches*in depth': Fuget fell abuu.1 .tho siiuo time, soeming !y IVo n the ?tfcot of White's last sh',t, rolling into thfl s:t:m gu'tor in vhijli White was lying, and at no great dis ?ane* from hint. Hetwoen the two men lay n bundle of gunny sack?, owing to which they wore unable to see eaoh other. F?get began to crawl toward While, who lay in the gutter unable to rise. Ho dragged himself n'ong the gutter until he reached the gunny sacks. He climbed Jup on these until he could sec his mortal onuiny, und then fired at him his two remaining shots.

They say 'thai it seems almost impossible that two men, armed with com u m six ihootcrs, could have done such rapid firing, and when the men were taken up and the pistols examined there was a general expression of puprisc on seeing they wtjre not selfeockors.
