first, supposing that som? ono was making a fire
at an early hour. In a short time, however, the
smoke inoreaaed-very much, so much so as to in?
crease alarm in his mind, and to satisfy him that the
house was on fire. He immediately went down the
stairs, passed the steward's room, calling fire all
the way,and found the flames breaking through
th? door of dining room No. 1. He then turned
and went back to the steeple, crying fire and
aJarrning the house. In the steeple he struck the
bell twelve times and being driven down by the
-smoke despended again. On his way down, becom?
ing bewildered, he lest his way; but meeting the
steward, and after communicating to him the

Bre-,fouoWing report of the City Attorney was
reaa^wd^?ie^ consideration of the same laid over
. J?^BonGrab?'the Mayor and Aldermen :
OsmpvEUEN : lu the year 1848 Council laid a tax
upon Bernie dividends. Two citizens, Messrs. Ed?
ward choring and William Birnie, in the sama year
refused to pay, and filed a suggestion for prohibi?
tion, on - the ground that the tax was illegal. The
??je ya* heard first by the Law Court of Appeals,
shu* Ttltemrd* i>y- ihd Oontt of timm,? ? md In
January, 1852, it was decided that the tax on divi?
dends vfoa illegal; because tho Banka had paid a
b .urns to the State, in consideration of which they
were by their charter exempted from all taxation,
whether of the State or of tho city.
On the 27th January, 1852, Mr. John C. Eurck
meyer applied by petition to Council to be refund?
ed tho amount which he had paid, under protest,
for taxes on dividends during four years. The pe?
tition was roferred to the Committee of Ways and
Means, with authority to confer with tho City At?
torney.
On the 10th Februar)', 1852, the Committee made
their report, and as * it is based almost entirely
upon legal considerations, 1 have no doubt it was
mode upon conference with mo, and nndor my ad?
vice. I enclose a copy of this report.
Tho report states that the taxes paid on divi?
dends, during tho four years last past, amounted
to a very largo sum of money. TL -.it in a few cases
thoy had been paid under what was called a pro?
test. That no protest had been made to the City
Council, nor had there neon any coercion of legal
process, and that there was much variance in the
forms of the protests. Tho ?eport concludes with
recommending that the prayer ot tho petitioners
be not granted, and that tho parties be left to their
legal remedies, should they see fit to pursue them.
The report was adopted by Council, and there
has been no other action of Council thereon, ex?
cept the reference to me upon Mr. Bnrckmeyer's
recent petition.
In the case of Robinson vs. the City Council (2
Rich., p. 318) it was held that if one voluntarily,
with a knowledge of all the facts, paid a tax which
was afterwards declared to be illegal, it could not
be recovered back. It was a voluntary payment,
not under coercion of legal process, and was a
waiver of all legal exception. In delivering the
opinion of the Court, Judge Butler says: "It would
be most mischievous to open such transactions as
these, after money has been expended upon the
assumption that it was lawfully acquired, and par?
ticularly after the payment of it may have been
acquiesced in, during nearly the whole period of
the statute of limitations."
It is my opinion, however, that if a tax be paid
by one under a distinct protest, on the ground of
illegality, while the question is being judicially
tested by others, it may be recovered back, if the
tax be declared illegal. In the case of thia
tax some thirty thousand dollars had been
paid into the Treasury and disbursed in public
expenditures. As appears by the report, some
had protested and some had not; some had pro?
tested in writing and some verbally; some on one
ground and some on another. Under these cir?
cumstances, it was deemed advisable to leave the
parties to their legal remedies, if they thought
proper to resort to them, and so make no dis?
crimination between tho many citizens, all of
whom had been paying tins tax during the period
of four years. Thus Council would refund in all
cases where the courts thought the parties res?
pectively entitled to recover.
The returns of that day are lost, and it cannot
now be ascertained in what form Mr. Burckmyor
protested. But there can be no doubt that he did
protest, and, in all probability, in as decided a
form aa any. The object of the report was to let the
Court determine what was in each case a sufficient
8retest, and so lay down the rule or rules by which
bundi should be governed in this as well as in
similar cases.
A demand like this is barred in four years if
there be no suit, and no proof of promise or
acknowledgment. The most favorable view of the
protestants is that the statute began to run from
the time that the tax is declared illegal. Perhaps
the more correct le ?al view is that it began to run
from the time of payment. It does not appear
that Mr. Burckmever commenced suit before
April, J.866. The taxes were paid in 1848,1849,1850
and 1851, and the tax was declared illegal in 1852.
'When, therefore, this matter came before me
again, after this long lapse of time, in the shape
of a writ, I felt it my duty to plead the statute ot
limitations on behalf of Council. It is my duty to
advise them, and, in case of emt, to toke in their
behalf all legal defences. If they think proper to
waive them, or any of them, under particular cir?
cumstances, they may so direct.
I have no doubt Mr. Burckmeyer did apply to
the Mayor and hold conversations with him, but I
do not find that there was any writ sued ont prior
to 1866, nor any application to Council since than*
report inl852,"n?? auy promise or acknowledg?
ment of the claim on their part. In other words,
I do not see anything to take the caso out of the
statute, if it be insisted.on.
I have endeavored to state, as correctly as J pan
ascertain them, the facts of this case, and my
views of tho law touching it. It is in the option
of Conned to say whether the plea of the statute
shall he urged or waived.
With respect, W.D.PORTER,
City Attorney.
BKPOBT OF TOE COMMITTEE OF WAYS AXT) MEANS,
, MADE AT A REGULAR MEETLNU OF COUNCIL, HELD
ON 24TH FKBBUAB?, 1852.
The Committee of Ways and Means, to wiiom
was referred the petitions of John C. Burokmyer
and Le wi? Jor voy, agent for Miss Rutledge, pray?
ing for a release of tax paid upon dividends on
Bank Stock, and to confer with the City Attorney
thereon, beg leave to report, (hat they have consi?
dered the matter referred, and' find that taxes
upon Bank dividends have bison paul to tho
amount of $33,000, during a period OZ four y?)ara,
and that, in a few cases, thoy have been paid un?
der what bas been called a protest upon the re?
turn, but in tho vost majority of cases without
any Buch objection. In no case was any protest
made to the City Conned, nor did Council pass
any resolution that the taxes should be returned
if found to be i Ilegal.
These protests vary in form. In one case the
objection is put on the-ground (that the tax is
"unequal and oppressive, in comparison with
other subjects of taxation, (not thal it is illegal),
and in others it takes a more general sbapo, with?
out any specification of reason or ground what?
ever "J ,: . ' ' ' .'*.~?f~\\' ,"! ' ,
The Committee aro advised that it is extremely
doubtful whether the Bums^ujd csn'be recovered
back in any of these coses, inasmuch as they were
not paid under coercion of any legal. process, and
that this view is sustained by the -principle of the
decision in Robinson vs. the City Council, where lt
was held that non-residents of the city who had
Said a higher price for badges than residents, u??
eras ordinance which waa declared to be illegal, j
could not recover back the amounts so paid. This
tax vas laid in good faith by, the City Council, ?nd .
the money thus collocted bas been expended for
pu bbc purposes, upon- tho m sumption that it wan
lawfully acquired.
Those who did not resist the tax have con tribu?
ted to the error; and to refund this large amount
now would work great injustice to those who are
not in default, inasmuch as it would throw the
burden upon different persona and in different
proportions from what it would have fallen at the
tune.
For these reasons the Committee recommend
that the prayer of the petitioner, be not granted,
and that the parties be left to their legal reme bes,
should they see fit to prosecute them.

SAlderman Steinmeyer :
e Committee on Brick and Wooden Buddings
to whom was referred the petition of Mr. John
Kenney, to erect a wooden building on the north
side of 'fradd street opposite to Limehouse street,
Report.
That when a similar application from Mr. John
G. Itgen, they did recommend that the petition be
! granted, and be allowed to erect a wooden building
I on his lot, on the north side of Trodd street.
That they did so from the impression, derived
from the reading of the act of 1856, in relation to
wooden buildings.
That upon further consideration, and after refer?
ence with the City attorney, they have come to the
conclusion that their first construction was erro?
neous, and that the intention of the legislature to
confine the erection of wooden buildings to the
west of a line running from South Bay, wost of
Legare street, as far as Trodd street, where Legare
street terminates, thence up Tradd street to
Savage, and west of that street as far as Broad,
where that stroet terminates, thence up Broad
street to Franklin, and then west of that street as
far as Magazine Bareet, where Franklin street ter?
minates, and thence along Magazine street to
Wilson street, and west of that street to Boaufain
street, Ac.
There is some vagueness in the phraseology of
the act, but your committee arc now satisfied,
that the line last indicated is the one intended by
the act.
In other words tho m caning is that if tho lot bo
on the square, bounded by Legare street, it must
be on the west of Legare strcot, if it bo on the
square bounded by Savage street, it must be weat
of that street, and if it bc ou the square or
squares, hounded by Franklin street, it must be
weet of that street, Ac.
The lot in this case is on the square bounded by
Savage street, and is not west of that street.
They therefore recommend tbot the petition bo
not granted.

UNION COUNTY.-We regret to learn that it is
probable that some of tho farmers of Union
County, will have to stop working their crop?
for ute want of corn for their families
and horses. The corn heretofore sent to that
county has been distributed for bread to the
destitute, while those who are carr ymg on farms
have looked oat for their own supplies bat the
difficulty now is, they have no money to bay with,
and bat few can obtain credit. Men who, in for?
mer years, sold from three to ten hundred bushels
corn, have not now a month's supply of food of any
sort, and no money to purchase what they need.

The New York Bvtnwg Pott of Tuesday. May 21,
says :
The loan market ia easier. There ia little inquiry for
accommodation, and in thia respect a marked chango baa
been developed since yesterday morn-ng. We observe
also among the banka and ether lending institutions lesa
disposition to discriminate against the sounder railroad
aecuri?ee aa collaterals. The larga carninga of the roads,
and the prospecta of good crops seem to ba among the
chief causea of thia new and encouraging symptom of
resuscitating confidence. The rate for call lonna la the
aame as before-6a6 per ceet-but surplus balances are
with difficulty employ ed without some concession. Com?
mercial paper ia dull at 6a7, with very scanty offerings of
the highest gradea.
