The lld iteirt case.
'Synop-s of'the tply of the relntors
to-the-retuin of Comptroller G ,oen
Aal ilodge.
First.. l.t. Tint it is not true th'?t
the authority to ascertain (1'b rit'd n
taxation is delegiteid to -The Goen ral
Assenbly and not to the'Comptrollor
General. Tiht the Constitution
-nowhero 'elegntes t his silo "anithority
tt the GOnelral AMsnibly, to Ex fio
'rato, and thnt this duty has hereto.
fore been perrornedl --y theo'Sate Ab
ditor, and now aippertaitas to the office
of the rasruondlenat. The Legislature
might des-:gnate t'. spedilic rate, hit
not -havlng -done so, fle 'respon
dent is amenable to the law fur not
having dono it.
2. Trhat the fnot that the -Le'gishi
ture has not fixed the speeilie rate
-on these bonds, or for the various
Stato purposos on or before Novem
ber next, is insufficient to justify the
respondent in refusing to give notice
of the ncues.ary'rato.
3. Thamt the respondent has, at fl
times, data for detormitiig the rate
neecessary ; that the 'Conditution
requires i registry to be kept df t'hie
bonds, and if any of those bonds have
been returned and redeemed this'fact
will be disolo. ed upon examination,
which examination lie is bound to
mako ; and that the excuse ot res
pondent that he is without the data
for the perforinnce of Ote -drty do
mnlided is insutiicient.
4. That if notice has been given by
-ro-pon&it of certain ratos neocrary
lor the expeises of the present fiscal
year, it is not true that. lie has no au
thority to give notioc of any other
rates ; but if the rates n.eces.ry for
paymie.t of -iiterst oil these bonds
were not levied, it is now the duty
of respondent to give notico as re
i.d bIy ih relitors.
5. That since the respondent lins
refused to give notio of this rate,
the ro!ators are entitled to ask aid of
the Court by inandaius.
S'econd. That the order of the
''ourt will not be nugatory by reason
At' the second cause of respondit.
Chat if th Court order rcspondont
to give notico and tho tax be levied,
fhe Court will prosule that resnec.
tivo ofheers -will. ,porfotm their res
pective duties. fhat the Cbutt 'Will
mnake no order regardirig udioy so
coilooted, unless it appear that'sdme
ollicer i. withiholding payment thereof.
2. That the bonds were issued in
conformity to the Constitution ; that
a conitract thureby arose between
the State and the bond holders ; and
if the. government have attempted to
alter or varny the -contract without
consent, of the loudholdors, such ct
is unconstitutional, and the relators
c:mnot bo compelled to register their
.bonida before receiving pay ment there.
for, but are entitel to paymeut
whether or not they register.
Third. 1st. T1hat they are not in.
for:ned wvhother the bonds were hy
po'thceated contrary to law or -net
but that suich statement is i-ia'fli
eiont for vaguess~.. T1hat by not of
Le~gislature said bionahi -have been
dielared lawful,; that the Liegisla
ture had powo~r to waive aniy irregu.
ltrity ini the s.doe or manmre-r of issue
of said bonds.
2d. Thia t reapondlent's allegation,
il on hearsay, that the bonds have
e-returned aind re-issueod is insuf-'
lhetent to justify the refusal of re
sponident to performithle dusty demand
ed, becanse the registry is accessiblo
to lhim, and if bonids have been to
deemed, this will appear by eon
ruitmg the registry. TJhen only can
responident refuse to levy a tax to pay
this interest.
FoiurthI. 1.4. T1hat the act of tFebru
a13 17, 1869, is valid ; it was passad
by a two-thirds majority.
2d1. 'Thit said not levies a tax sum-fi
cienat to pay interest on thme bonds
therein auuthmorired.
Fifth. T1hatt there is no established
p'ract.ico of miandamaus in thin Stat'o,
by which t he writ will not be alowd
until judgmecnt be obtained. TJhat
thu nii it w ill ha. allowedl whenever
taceo is a iight to demanid the per.
formance of a duty. That by pas.
-sage of said act, this dut~y detolved
on the respondent.
Sixth. That the court, in ordering
the pay mnt of this interest ill not
necessarily order a tax to pay the
interest on the whole debt, booatte
as to a large portion of that debt
there is no law requiring the levy of
a tax.
S3event h. That they are not inform,
ad as to the correct ness of the allega
tion as to theo public debt made in
the rev'enth cause. T1hat the court
should inquire into thme validity of
theso bonds only, and thme respondent
shonld charge theiu illegality only
aft er due inspretion and nut merely
on inftormnation.
Eighth. 'That this eourt bn. nic
coJ!Jern wvithi the general conditios
of thme public debt, or with any ar
rangemeonts made for registration
But if' the court, fuds that the rela,
tors hold bonds upon which interesi
is payable, and that the gesponsdeni
muihst give notice of the necessary tax
then the court must grant the or,
der.
Ninth. That it is true that tht
loegislaturo has exclusive power te
e. narucet de bt and provide for its pay
. ?mnent, but that the L~egia!atnre ha
perforn:.ed all it. duties. Thast
contract has arisen which tbe Legis
latureO canuot varr. T1hat respond
ant Inust levy a tax to )uy this intbr.
est, or neglpeti to do so, the courq

End Of the Modoo War.

his little hztellet'. Sdidiero and scar
pions alike broathe teoe -freely, und
the voice of the grasshopylAr will be
again beard in the land.
We confess our disnppointmont at
the termination of this war. At first,
we were apprehensive for Captain
Jack, when Sherman issued that order
of ext ermination-; and frhon The noble
W~armI Springs were brdughet 'te'the
front, iwo gave up all hope. 'Jut
Ca[ptaini Ihck was as ubiqu'itous a's
the Irisheman's'fica, and we beghoi to
theink thiat like t'hio tortoise in tite
arithutetio, 'he neavor wetd 'be over
ta'k'en. And now after'having delud
ed us'into the speculation of bettling
our last .'lollar on 'him., heha ig'no..
main dsily thrown 'up the iponge.
Our'faithi in Ind ian natnu'oe hs been
eonsidera'bly shakecn 'by the 'Ca ptaini~
t'r'eao'hery towaris us. Wo can ae
count for his voluntary surrender,
only on the hypothesis that his con
tempt for the prowebs of Un'ble Sana is
so inoffable 'that thu lho does not fear
harm even when disarmed an~d in his
clutches. We fear ho has mnado a
mistake. The army of the United
States has long boon noted for war
ring upon captives and defeneeless
women and children ; and the mnilita
ry Courts have the blood of more than
one innocent victim on their skirts.
We regrot td give U, as our unbiased
opinion that Captain Jack ivill swing.
Our sympathies are enlisted in bo
half of the old follot, for his admira.
ble pluck. We had confldently k
pccted that his distinguished ability
would have won him promotion at the
bands of the M~odoo Congtest but
the probability ftoW is that be will be
raised on s diff-ont liie ebtirely.
WVe beospeak fail- play for Captain
Jack. True, ho may fiot have ovine
ed any well defined ideas on the sub
ject of honesty; and his head wftb cer
tainly not clear on the hiviolability of
flags of truce, but his audacity and
consumimato impudence in defending
his home, cover a multitude of sins.
Tfhd old folks say, set a thief to
catch a thief." Woe advise President
Grant to immrediately promote Cap.
tain J1ak to thre Cohonelcy of the
regiment left vacant by the vagaries
of Pribee Fred, and dispatch him
forthwith to Texas, where the Kicka
poos are snaking things so lively.
This Aight we would view *ith com-*
placoy, not earing a etraw whethor
Jack whi is the Kickapoos or the
Kickuipoos whip .Jack. If Jack be
victorious, let hin go homne to his
I family in his little lava be.

ho. On the contrary it gave credit for
ovory ntot of honesty, real or' apparent,
of which the part-y in power have
been guilty. If it whs not lavish of

undoubtedly just a little tender. It
to declare that the taxpayors should
