he Daily Granssript, NEVADA CITY sceaeieamneene cenieiaieanetainemeneetii THURSDAY, MAY. 18, 1871, — Take Money and Pay for Property. The Supreme Court in reasoning out has been compelled to resort toa Kind of logic whicli it is hard to comprehend. For instance, the Court say that pris vate lands may be taken in order to secure the right of way fora railroad, “on making compensation * therefor,” and the Court therefore argues that a railroad corporation is a public use, and on these premises bases the theury that the people may be taxed to build it. It is not claimed that the right of . way can be secured without compensation, but that it must be paid for. The people of a county cannot éven vote a right of way for a railroad, without compensation to owners of the lancs over which it passes ; nevertheless, the Supreme Court, taking this as its premises, argues that railroads are public uses, and that a majority may confis' cate hundreds of thousands of dollars private property without compensaticn, The Supreme Court has theres tore assumed the illogical position that while you can’t take lands from a corporation without compensation, even for a railroad, you may take money.— The Haraminer, speaking upon this point, says: “The fact that it is ads mitted on all hands, that this right of way cannot be taken without compensation to the owners of the land, ought to be fatal to the assumption of the sub‘sidyites. A right of way througha county would cost say $20,000. It is” imperatively required that this ghould’ be paid for as preliminary to building the road. The railroad will cost, say, three million~of-dollars, and yet, acs cording to this decision, a bare majority of the people of a county, representing not one-tenth of the property holders—perhaps the greater number of them temporary sgjourners, in the employ of the railroad company, and having no pernianent interests at stake— can compel the minority tu contribute this full amount as a gratuity. In other words, you must pay for the $20,000 worth of land taken, but you can confiscate three millions of dollars of private property, not only to pay for said right of way, but.to build the road itself. Thisis the inevitable conclusion to which the logic of our Supreme Court brings us. It is the condensed meaning of their decision. Was there ever anything heard of more mons strously absurd or stupendously wrong?’ CONGRESSIONAL COoMMITTEE.—The Republican Second Congressional Dis. trict Committee met in Sacramento Monday.

THE result of another attempt to establish the authority of the celebrated “Junius” letters, which set all England ageg a century ayo, and which have been a wystery in literature ever since, is made the subject of an able article in the April number of the Quarterly Review. It claims t> have successtully -selvedthe -problem,-andalthough nearly a score of writers with widely differing results have made the same boasts, there seems to be strong grounds for relying upon its. state. ments. It awards the paternity of the letters to Sir Philip Francis, who has long been considered their author, although assuriny proof of’such an opine ion has heretofore been wanting. In order to establish the belief two Lon-~ don experts in the identification of hand writing were pressed into the sers vice. lt was discovered that the lets ters were written in a diszuised hand, butin attempting to proceed fytther than this the experts. wer6 for awhile baffled. Finally a note was found writ~ ten in the “Junius” hand to one Miss Giles, a brilliant young lady, with whom Sir Philip Francis bad danced several times at Bath. The note ac-~ companied a boquet delivered to her’ } the morning after he had escorted her toa party. With the note was also a set of verses, which it has since been ascertained were in the hand writing of a cousin of Sir Philip, who doubtless acted as'an amanuensis for him on this occasion. On this strong circumstane tial evidence, as well as other corroborative testimony, the proof of the identification of Sir Philip Francis with the author of the “Junius” letters rest. Unless we take it without question the matter will in all probability never be solved, as every ingenuity seems to have been exhausted by the London experts who have just given us the res sults of their labors. —_ 8 OF the cities in Massachusetts which voted on the question of licensing the sale of ale and beer, Wercester, Laws rence, Lynn, Springfield, Great’ Bar= rington, Chelsea ‘and Pittsfield decided about two bits for every drop of water} in favor, and Salem, New Bedford, which fell.

The credit of the State shall not, in any manner, be given or loaned to or in aid of any individual, association or incorporation ; bor shall the State, directly or indirectly, become a stuckholder in any corporation or association.” ‘How does the Supreme Court get around-this clause? Can the State under-this-provisionguarantee the interest upon railroad bonds? Or can it, as Justice Wallace says, “avail itself of the energy and skill of a private corpos rations,” by giving State credit to private individuals. If this power is denied under the clause quot¢d, cana ‘county, the creature of the State, des riving all its powers trom the Legislature under the Constitution, do that which by the Constitution the State is expressly prohibited from doing. Vetily Demoeratic Courts are entirely sound on the Constitution. Nor even the hardships of war seem to dampen the German ardor for reading. It is related that an officer in the Landwehr before Paris asked his wife tosend him Kant’s “Kritik of Pure Reason.” Prussiau Minister of Justice, when before Paris, wrote home for books, and his father sent him the “Institutes” of Justinian. A Heideiberg student, who was called away to serve as a private in the artillery, and was first before Metzand then through the campaigns against the Loire army, suffered great hardships in the field, Lut the only complaint in his home letters was that he could get no books. — ‘The sou of the Tue New Orleans Picayune, in an article on the advantages of immigration, expresses the opinion that ‘a half dozen of our best war steamers could not be more profitably employed in time of peace than in bringing monthly loads of immigrant passengers free of charge. No more useful occupation could be found for a thousand consular agents than the diffusion of informa— tion in Buropean countries about America. No more philanthropic or patriotic business can offer than that of attending tothe wants of the strangers who seek homes in this country.” A RELIC of the war with Tripoli has recently come to light. An officer of the war steamer Querriere, at Tripoli, Africa, states that on the 9th of April last the crew of that steamer raised the anchor of the frigate Philadelphia, which has been lying at the bottom of the barbor of Tripoli ever since Decatur burned the ship in 1804.

Finally a note was found writ~ ten in the “Junius” hand to one Miss Giles, a brilliant young lady, with whom Sir Philip Francis bad danced several times at Bath. The note ac-~ companied a boquet delivered to her’ } the morning after he had escorted her toa party. With the note was also a set of verses, which it has since been ascertained were in the hand writing of a cousin of Sir Philip, who doubtless acted as'an amanuensis for him on this occasion. On this strong circumstane tial evidence, as well as other corroborative testimony, the proof of the identification of Sir Philip Francis with the author of the “Junius” letters rest. Unless we take it without question the matter will in all probability never be solved, as every ingenuity seems to have been exhausted by the London experts who have just given us the res sults of their labors. —_ 8 OF the cities in Massachusetts which voted on the question of licensing the sale of ale and beer, Wercester, Laws rence, Lynn, Springfield, Great’ Bar= rington, Chelsea ‘and Pittsfield decided about two bits for every drop of water} in favor, and Salem, New Bedford, which fell.

The credit of the State shall not, in any manner, be given or loaned to or in aid of any individual, association or incorporation ; bor shall the State, directly or indirectly, become a stuckholder in any corporation or association.” ‘How does the Supreme Court get around-this clause? Can the State under-this-provisionguarantee the interest upon railroad bonds? Or can it, as Justice Wallace says, “avail itself of the energy and skill of a private corpos rations,” by giving State credit to private individuals. If this power is denied under the clause quot¢d, cana ‘county, the creature of the State, des riving all its powers trom the Legislature under the Constitution, do that which by the Constitution the State is expressly prohibited from doing. Vetily Demoeratic Courts are entirely sound on the Constitution. Nor even the hardships of war seem to dampen the German ardor for reading. It is related that an officer in the Landwehr before Paris asked his wife tosend him Kant’s “Kritik of Pure Reason.” Prussiau Minister of Justice, when before Paris, wrote home for books, and his father sent him the “Institutes” of Justinian. A Heideiberg student, who was called away to serve as a private in the artillery, and was first before Metzand then through the campaigns against the Loire army, suffered great hardships in the field, Lut the only complaint in his home letters was that he could get no books. — ‘The sou of the Tue New Orleans Picayune, in an article on the advantages of immigration, expresses the opinion that ‘a half dozen of our best war steamers could not be more profitably employed in time of peace than in bringing monthly loads of immigrant passengers free of charge. No more useful occupation could be found for a thousand consular agents than the diffusion of informa— tion in Buropean countries about America. No more philanthropic or patriotic business can offer than that of attending tothe wants of the strangers who seek homes in this country.” A RELIC of the war with Tripoli has recently come to light. An officer of the war steamer Querriere, at Tripoli, Africa, states that on the 9th of April last the crew of that steamer raised the anchor of the frigate Philadelphia, which has been lying at the bottom of the barbor of Tripoli ever since Decatur burned the ship in 1804.
