.that the decided measures adopted by Eng

W lauded by the French government. which
* had also strongly censured the conduct of
Spain : and there is every reason to believe
thatthe Spanish Gov’_t., conscious of its own
l_weakness, and deserted by France and the
Ioly Allies, has consented to recognize the
reseJt government of Portugal. This being

‘The editorof the Register much mistake.-
us ifhe supposes we have any disposition to
quarrel with him. We assure him that we
were tiev’er more peaceably disposed in on»

inuch he may be like or “ unli,ke‘Bona'parte”

ject in view, and that is, to tear the ycil from
a ‘set ofmeii who under the tnask ofRepublic-
anisiu, are seeking to accomplish an jolijeci
from which they hope to derive a persoiial
benefit ; and if we cannot do it withotrft sub-
jecting ourselves to the epithets which the
Register seems disposed so liberally to bestow,
‘we shrill be content. \Ve are not to be divert-
ed from ‘our purpose" by such means.’ The
charge of Federalism, however", comes with
an ill grace frorii the Register at the present
moment. -‘Let theeditor look around him
and see who are his'co-adjtirors‘iri this cause.

publishers ofthe Cuuran_t', Journal, Herald,
"and Patiiot,.papers devoted exclusively to the
interests‘ ofthe Federal party, and as‘exclu-
sively supported by that "party," while the Mer-

‘ cury and Farmer, the oltlest Republican pa-

pers in the state, are on the other side. But
he need not "confine himself to his own
profession foran answer. He has coadjutors
of a most zealous ‘character among the lead-
ing members of the party alluded to in every
town in the stale, and we could point him to
those in this County who never felt a greater
interest iii any question ever discussed in the
lstrongest party tiines,thanin the decision of
-the question which has enlisted his feelings so
warmly. And why? Because it holds out to
them a chance of regaining thepovver they
have lost.‘ These tiieu rejoice in the division
\\ lrich exists among Republicans on this sub-
ject,‘and are active in sowiiigthe seeds of dis-
cord sti-ll more widely in their ranks. Nor
will they desist so long as they can find tneii
-whose only patriotism consists in the number
ofoffices which they hold. That they have
met with some success the proceedings ofa
set ofiiien in this County‘ last spring, and
which are to be acted over again at the coni-
iug election, furnish abundant evidence.-—
These proceedings go forth to the world as the

acts ofRe-publicans, but no one is deceived by

them who has any chance of becoming ac-

quainted with the facts. He who pulls the

wire is as well ktiowii as if he did it in open
day ; and it is because these things are known

that Repriblicatis have hesitated in a matter

which ,under other circumstances, they might,
perhaps, wish to see accomplished.
they have. acted as every man of corriiriou
sense would act under the satne circuiiistati-

cos, and as the editor of the Register once
acted. Vie refer him to his own files for the
manner in which he treated this very subject
when the editors ofthe Herald and other pu-
pers ofthe same stamp, were disposed to med-
dle with it. He then coiisidered it itnpurtan;
that Republicans should consult their own
interests rather than that of their adversaries,
and he plainly and honestly said so. Let him
pursue the same course now, or give his rea-
sons for the change,acknowledging his former
error. and he will be respected for his candor;
but so long as he coiitiuues to‘ withhold them
he must not be surprised to learn that he is
suspectedby many whose good opirrioii he
was once ambitions of olitaitiirig.

We cannot conclude this article without
‘expressing the hope that the the editor Ofthe
Re-gister, being, as he hiuiselfsays, so riiucu
"unlike Bonaparte,” will receive our rciiiar;-;s
with that spirit of kindness in which they are
written, and hereafter, as heretofore, endea-
vor to live peaceably with us, for we can as-
sure him that whether.‘ we take the stand or
neutrals on this or any other questiou,we have
personally none but the most friendly feeliiigs
towards liitii, and shoultl he consent “ to write.
us into notice” we shall consider ourselves
under the tnost lasting obligations ofgratitude
for his condescetision.
. FOR ‘rm: GAZETTE.

Mr. EdiIor—-I cannot ‘ agree with the
“ Farmer,” that it woulclbe so very oppressivt.
to lay a tax oti looms, or any other iristrunients
ofindustry, though neither tradition or history
informs" us of such a practice ever being a-
dopted in this State. To assess a l'armer’s
cart and plough,or a mechaiiic’s tools, could
not amount to a great sum. ata fair valuation;
but I do cordially agree with him, that taxes
ought to be equally distributed among all sub-
jects accordiug to their ability, and _to press
on all proper objects of taxation as equal as
atmospheric air.

Our Assessment law points out all objects
oftaxation except faculties, which part is lelt
at the discretion of the assessors; and they
have improved upon the old platform mode
ofassessing mechanics for faculty, who em
ployed a capital in their business; by singling
out a few who have from hard labor and poor
living, laid by a few pence to comfort them
in their old age, (for which they pay taxes to
the utmost farming) and have assessed them
for the faculty of working with their civil
hands frotn day to day. This is what “ Mr.
Citizen.” as he is~called, complains of, being
one oftheir number, and of right a little selr.
isli willial.

Nowl appeal to the Fa. mer himst-lf. if,after
carrying in his list according to law, he should
be assessed -for the faculty of holding his
plough and gathering his crops, whether he
would not consider that a, hardship. I verily
believe if we could bring this .ubject to bear,
however selfish-he might be, or think ollir-rs
to be, we should get his vote at least to alter
the mode oftaxatioii, at all the liazards of
creating newdiseases. ' CITIZEN.

The bachelors in the state ofNew York ‘are
at presentin a sorry condition, having been
thrown into a state ofthe utmost confusion,
and almost ofdespair, by Gen. M’Clure’s mo‘
tion to relieve the Dogs frotii taxation, and
lay the burthen upon them. In the city ot'N.
York, however, they are detertriined not to
brook such an outrage upon their character,
and have accordingly held a meeting, at
which they tuuied out en masse, andiadopted
a preamble and resolutions which would melt
the heart ofa much more obdurate than than
that ofthe General. Their’ condition is’ iridecu
a pitiable one, and ought to receive the corn

{zev ed fromthe lonely coridltgion ofa state of
“ single bless'edness,’? as they bitterly term it,
and introduced to the purer delight ofwetlded
life. This we suppose the meeting had in
view in appointing a coriimittee to memorial-_
ize the legislature on the subject. This coni-

common Schools in New York.-It appears
from the reportofthe superintendent ofCoui-4
tiiou Schools in the state of New York, pre-
sented last week to the Housegof Assembly,
that ofthe 7°23 towns and wards in the State,
72l__have made "returns according _to law;-—
'l‘hat‘i_n these towns there are 8114 school
districts, and of course the same number of
schools; from 7544 of which returns of which

have been received : That 34! new School

districts have been formed during the year
1896, and that the number which have made
returns exceeds that of the last yearby 497 :
That in the 7544 districts reported, there are
4li,l52 chiltlren between the ages of5 and
15, and that in the common schools of the
same districts 431,001 children have been
taught during the year 1826, the general ave-
rage having bet.-ii about eight months. The
sum ol‘3l8'5.96.5 has been paid to the various
districts during the year; of which $80,000
were from the state treasury. 3949244 by a di-
rect tax upon the citizens’ of the respective
towns, and $1l,7Ql frotn local funds belong-
ing to several counties. These returns show
an increase of l5,556 ofthe children between
five and fifteeh ; and the number of children
taught in the common schools, has increased
13,688 since the last annual report. By the
reirirns of 1816, it appears that the niiniher 0
children between 5 and 15, was 36,843 more
than the nutnber irisrri-icted «luring that year
in the common schools; in the year l826,the
number between five and fifteen, is 16,200
less than the number taught ; making a dif
fereuce in favor ofthose instructed, of more
than 50,000.
