orgun, probably speaks the sentiments of the
Freuch Government when it says that Government will not receive Mason and. Slidell
or any other Southern commission. It is:
-poasible. the Presse has so declared as a blind
to the real intention of Napoléon II, but it
is not probable, inasmuch as however strong
may be the antipathy to governments by the
people, France has always considered the
United States an ally necessary to check the
presumption and arrogance of Gieat Britain.
Tho-old hereditary hatred of England which
“exists among the Freneh is a pretty sure
guerantee that France is not disposed to
_ combine with England to crush a nation necessary to maintain the balances of power, and
whose destruction would give to Great Britaindomination on the globe.

But, we will give the Marysville organ’ of

Aelight it amazingly, desirous as it is of pick‘ing up more on this mining tax question. —
We are going to assure that sheet, that,
living in the mitnes,-and having been engaged
directly or indirectly, in mining most of the
time since 1849, we have never been able to
see why miuing claime of real value should
not be taxed, and we so argued about camp
‘fires years ago, when we relied on the pick
aud shovel to gain @ living, as some men about
us can attest. There is no terror or sense of
injustice in the breast of the honest and
thinking miner .in the idea of paying a reasonable tax. Miners can reason as well as
‘the editor of the Express; in truth, we will
turn them out against. any class for strong
intellect and unimpeachable honesty; and for
real and substantial patr/otism the miners of
the State will distance all.
They can see that touses erected in the
wooden towns_about the country -are taxed
for what they are worth, and that claims the
owners would pot exehange for all the, houses
of wtown, pay nothing. ~They can see that
these houses are subject tu depreciation and_
destruction by fire, bat as long as they stand
‘they pay to support the Government, The
ower indeed. pays a tax on their-valne, and
also a tux on the business he carries on in the
houses. ‘The miners can see that four-fifths
of the litigation in our courts is about mining
-¢hims; and thatthese-cases are novel in their
nature dad expensive. No reasonable miner
will insist that the few that are engaged ing
other avocations should be made to pay the
cost of supporting courts, and government
generally, mainly for his benefit. He is not
aselfish being to that extent the Express
would have him, by any means, but is disposed to yield to any thing that is right, and
submit to nothing that is wrong. 1f the courts
are of benefit to him in maintaining his rights,
he is willing to pay for their support.
Now, hundreds of cases may be seen in the.
mines where money, from small sums up to
‘immense amounts, has been paid for claims,
the value of whieh can be determined with
as much certainty before ‘working as the
value of a ditch or a building in a mining
town, Ascltims are now proapected and
worked the miner can tell with as much exactnews what they are worth as the farmer in:
the vulleys can say of his land, the worth of
which is determined by the crops it will pro.
duce and these depend upon the season, gophers, squirrels, ete. At any rate, property
is valued for taxable purposes by what the
owner estimates it te the Assessor, The
oath of the owner is considered good, and a
miner who would not exchange his claims for
buildings, farms, or money, ought to be able
to swear va to. what he considers the value of
is claims, taking into eonsideration all chances. and pay taxes teeordingly.
“When a sound argument is made against
taxingNuining claims of acknowledged value,
it will be time to-meake further argument.—
Thas far, the poeket of the miner has been
wldressed and not Tits judgment. We contribute these remarks forthe benefit of the
aeeesh press. Let the most.be made of
