It is "contended by. plaintiffs that'this'sugar
is not taxable:
1st. Because it waB not the property of the
plaintiff but was tho property of corporations
which have corporate existence within this
Kingdom and of individuals within this Kingdom,
2nd. Because thc.sugar being ladeff on board
of a forcignfesscl; 'is not, infconteraglatioh of

3rd. Because tho sugar was not in tho possessions

well as'otber Sections, make property assessable
to the persons in whose possession or
control it rnajTe on the 1st or July ol each
year. The doty of ascertaining who the true

The law imposes taxes in rem and the ves is
taxable in the hands of the person holding it
and Jhef collectoijrjnecd not look further. To
require that each assessor Should try and pass
upon titles to personal property and decide

tax operate to. rnconragc evasions
and consequently to pl.icc heavier burdens

hands of a corporation acting as a commission
merchant or plantation agent are properly taxable
to it.
The sug.ir van within this Kingdom, although
laden in the hold of au American
steamship. Any other construction would admit
of articles of great value being placed on
board of a foreign vessel in the harbor ou the
30th June, and returned on shore on the 2nd
July, and thus escape taxation. Tho case
cited, Crapo T.KeUcij 10 Wallace G10, does
not apply. This was al question whether tho
.transfer, of all.the,property of a debtor,resident
in Massachusetts by'a Judge fjtbo Insolvent
Court, passed the title to his assignee in insolvency,
of a ship then on tho high seas. The
Court held that for the purposes of this suit
the ship though on tho "high seas' was a portion
of the territory of Massachusetts, aud the title
to her passed with the like effect as if she
were physically within tho limits ol tho Stale
of Massachusetts, and bo a subsequent attachment
on her arrival in the port of fow York
was invalid.
The sugar, though its bills of lading were
mailed to the consignees in a foreign port, was,
for the purposes of taxation, still in the possession
and control of the shipper.
On this count judgment muBt be for defend -and.

Sugar Trade of tho United States.
The 2few York Shipping and Commcrciql
List had a timely article on tho sngar trade of
this country in a recent issue. It notes tho
fact that the competition of beet sngar has
now attained to such proportions that it "challenges
the supremacy of the cane product and
is contesting the privilege of controlling tho
sugar markets of tho world. This has been
the potent factor in shaping the course of the
sugar trade ialBB4, and it is likely to continue.

in regulating the value and consumption of
raw sugar throughout the world." In tho
opinion of our contemporary, 1885 will determine

tons refined sugar wero marketed in England
last-year in tho teeth of tho British refiners,
having.no tariff protection,
to undersell the American and European
sugars which enjoyed an export drawback.
Our total export of refined sujrar lastycar was
63,042 tons. J
import in 1884. In 1880 we imported 2,350
tons; in 1882, about 7000 tons;
6Uar imports 1G,000 tons; and in
16S4, 85,000 tons wero imported, being nearly
fifty per cent more than 1882. At the samo
ratio of incrcaso wo should import 125,000
tons of beet sugar in 1885 from Franco and
I Germany. The possibilities in this direction
are certainly startling. Brazil sent us more
"raws" in 1854 than ever before. Owing to a
short crop-Manila sugar fell off, but the Tcst
India Islands gavo tho usual quantity. Hawaiian
Islands crop increased by 10,294 tons.
The sugar crop of Louisiana yielded 12e, 1 43
tons, a decrease of 6,835 tons aB compared
with 1883. Tho Alvarado beet sugar refinery
produced 1,650,000 pounds of sugar during
1884. This is tho only manufactory of tho
kind in tte United States. Sorchum did not
exceed 1,000,000 pounds, and the supply of
maple sugar is estimated at 25,000 tons for
16847 About 50,000 tons of sugar wero obtained
by roboiling foreign molasses. The
aggrcgato consumption of cane sugar, domestic
and foreign, in tho United last year was 1,-265,283
tons, an increase on tho year of 8.C
per cent, accounted for by increased consumption
owing to growth of population and low
prices.
When it is remembered that the lowest
point in the price of sugar in the past 35 years
was touched during 1884, the crop prospect
for 1885 becomes important. In almost every

Cuba is estimated to yield from 600,000 to
650,000 tons. Should, however, tho
treaty, with Spain not bo ratified there

The vaults of the tower were used as prisons.
Descending tho staircaso there
could be seen tho remains of tho old staircase
built years before; also tho holes in which it
is said tho rack was fixed upon which Anno
Askero was tortured are visible in tho floor of
tho vault. In this building Guy Fawkes was
imprisoned with his companions, and it is related
of him that after thirty minutes, during
which ho was tortured, he confessed. The
walls of tho prison are covered with inscriptions
made by various prisoners."
Tho siglitB usually shown to visitors are
the armor and recalia of centuries past.
Twelve smaller towers encircle thoMarger or
White Tower. There is one lower, the entrance
to which is known as tho tjJQodygalc.
Ascending the stairway, rooms full bf curious
and great reminiscences will bo seen. On, the
wall of a small chamber on the firstfloor is n
inscription made by the Bishop of Hoss, who
was an active partisan of Mary Queen of
ScotB. Anothct room on tho same floor is
celebrated as tho one wherein Fclton, who
murdered Buckingham, blessed tho pcoplb on
tho way to prison. The historical Colonel
Richardson was also imprisoned in the same
room after tho Restoration.
Tho upper flwr of tho Tower has a room
wherein the murder of tho two Princes, Edward
and Richard, tooplaco. Its windowB
open upon a narrow passage, and it is said
that the assassins eutcrcd by these windows.
Of late these rooms- have been subdivided.
Here, after the snrder of tho Princes, Margaret
of Cheyne was imprisoned. She
was bettor known as tho wild woman who
excited the second pilgrim invasion of Yorkshire
in the reign of Henry Till., the object
of the pilgrimage being to overthrow tho
power of Cromwell aud restore Catheriue of
Aragon. In this Tower, Dudley, Earl of
Northumberland, was imprisoned, aud from
thenco was led to the scaffold. Archbishop
Cranmcr also was in custody in this celebrated
Tower, as waB also Henry, Earl of Northumberland,
in tho reign of Elizabeth. Ho
shot himself subsequently, to avoid a confiscation
of his estate.
Tho Houses of Parliament, which include
the Honso of Commons, are a vast structure
and cost 3,000,000. They are considered
tho finest buildings in tho world, are gotliic
in tho stylo of architecture, and have a frontage
on the river Thames of some 900 feet.

Bimark's Shrewd Policy.
A writer for one of the French papers, from
Germany, has analizcd the Reichstag and has
.obtained somo curious results, displaying re
markable shrewdness of Bismark in playing
off one party against tho other to gain his
ends. There is probably no national assembly
in the world with so many parties, and frequently
Bismark's backers fall far below a
majority. At present, for instance, ho has
only eighty-one out of 307 mcmbers.and these
eighty-one are divided into two factions. Tho
other 21C are divided into Catholics, Liberals,
Poles, ParticularistB, Danes and
It is BiBmark's policy to always keep
tho factions at war,an'd to so manage tho quarrels
that whon ho wants a majority he can get it
from those favorable or unfavorable to himsolf,
who want to crush tho opposition. As an illustration
of his frankness in his mcthods,it is related
that once when of the members
were united against the government measure,
he remarked to the Liberal leader: "I am going

Amorlcan Jpbors In Paris.
A comical, successful and innocent practical
joke was recently played off by two
young American artists upon sundry of
their comrades and countrymen in Paris.
Thejr dressed up a Moorish peddler who
was in the habit of frequenting their studios
with his wares, and also of occasionally
acting as their modeh to personate an
Eastern Pacha. Attired in a scarlet robe
superbly embroidered with gold, a vast
white turban, a rich silk sash sustaining a
knife, in a green velvet scab
bard and a Mahometan rosary, a white
bournous and a pair of white slippers, the
Moor looked an Oriental dignity to tho
very life. The most absurd part of the
joke was that he took his metamorphosis
quite au seneux, and insisted upon being
treated with all tho deference due to area!
Pacha. The young artists then took him
down to the Hotel Chatham, and introduced
him on all sides to the American habitues
of the place as Suleiman Digna Mustapha
Pacha, a special envoy from the Sultan, a
general in the Turkish army, etc., etc.
His Excellency was an immense success,
some of the party present who had spent
some time in the East declaring that the
evidences of high birth and breeding in
his physique and manners were unmistakable.
After a pleasant evening and much
conversation, carried on through the medium
of one of the painters, who had planned
the joke, and who spoke Arabic (it
was deemed best to suppress tho Moor's
real and extensive knowledge of French
and English,) tho Pacha took his leave,
inviting his new friends to como to visit
him, and promising to get up a lion hunt
in their honor onhis vast estates in Africa.
Tho American artists then took him to a
' restaurant and treated him to a sumptuous
dinner, after which they drove back to the
studio, apd the Moor laid aside his gorgeous
borrowed attire to assume tho garb
of an Oriental pedlar. Excltangc.
Rare Culchaw.
A young lady from ono of tho normal
schools in Boston was recently engaged
by a resident of this city to teach two little
bright ones their primer lessons. She
wore ''beauteous" glasses and looked lovingly
at the little ones.
"Gome hero, my little darlings. Do you
know I am to impart tho necessary information
to fit you for your mature years!"
"Yetb," lithped the smalleth one, while
tho other one stared.
"Well, now, darlings, if you will produce
your primer I will see to what proficiency
you havo attained. Oan you tell
me what that letter is?"
"I don't know."
Don't you dear? Well, now, listen to
me, and I will indicate in a lucid manner
tho formula, by which you will never fail
to recognize it. It is the first letter of
the alphabet in most of the known languages.
It is naturally tho first letter be
cause it represents tho first or most infantile
of sounds that uttered by the mere
opening of the mouth without restraint.
To fix it thoroughly remember that it is
Eyramidal in form, the angle at tho top
eing more or less acute and a cross-bar
bisecting it in a line parallel with tho
base."
"A-a-ah," said both wonderingly.
"Yes, dears; and now wo will go and
walk. Exercise is most beneficial."1
Left-Handed Artisans-
. "Is there a left-handed barber in "this
shop?" asked a man as he walked into a
tonsorial establishment on Grand Avenue
early in the week.
"We have one, sir. Take a chair."
A reporter watched the strange customer
as the left-handed knight of the brush
scraped his chin, but could not discover
anything different from the manipulation
of a right-handed man, but there was just
the same, and here it is:
"You see," said the boss barber, "when
a man is shaved all the time by a right-handed,
barber, the beard is pushed over
toward the right and when it grows out
it looks like a lopsided mop. The left-handed
barber counteracts this tendency,
and the roots are directed the way they
should go. A left-handed barber is a new
wrinkle, but he is a good thing to have in
the house."
Yesterday two blacksmiths were conversing
in a south-side saloon on the relative
abilities of two helpers.
"Jim is a good enough man," said one,
but he can't use his left hand."
"You Bee," said the speaker in response
to the reporter's query, '-blacksmith's helpers
have to stand on both sides of the
forge, and while one strikes right-handed,
the other hits with the left If a man can't
hit straight with his left he's no good."

ing an ox team' the driver walks on the

"English Spoboa Here."
Tibbitts tried to worry ono of these Parisian
salesmen and for once succeeded. He
stopped the party promenading with him on
tho Boulovard des Italiens at a jeweler's, who
displayed in hiB window tho legend, "English
Bpokcn." The "English Bpoken" in the
shops is good enough, as a rule, to explain
tho nature and quality of the goods and that
is all. Further the English-speaking
salesman has no more idea of English than
ho has of Ashanteo. Tibbitts marched boldly
in and the English speaking man appeared. He
waB) a well-preserved, bald-headed man of 50,
and at him Tibbitts went.
"Do you ppeak English?"
"Oiu yeea, monsieur."
Tibbitts grasped his hand enthusiastically.
"It's refreshing to meet one in a strango
land who can spoak ono's own language."
"Yees, monsieur."
"Well, what 1 want to know is, is the Chicago
and Northwestern railroad cutting rates
the samo as the other roads and do they cut
for western-bound passengers the samo as for
eastern, and do you havo the remotest idea
that tho cutting will bo kept up till September
whon I return,and docs the Pullman sleeping-car
company cut tho samo as tho railroad companies.'
"Eh, ihonsieur? Zoeao watches"
"You don't quito understand me. You see
tho Pullman sleeping-car oompany is quito
distinct from tho railroad companies, and ono
may cut rates without tho other. See? Now,
what I want to know is "
Tho bowildorcdFroncbman,who Bpoko English,
stared in a wild sort of a way, but his
politeness did not desert him:
"Eos cot zo watch, ze diamond, zo "
"Not yet. WhatI want to know is, who
is Lapham and Miller who havo been elected
to fill tbo vacancies occasioned by tho resignation
of Piatt and Conkling and is Miller going
to bo a tail to Lapham's kite, or aro thoy
both square, bang-up mon, and "
"Will monsieur look at zo goods?"
"No, no. Is tho Chicago and Northwestern
in this row?"
By this timo tho Frenchman was out of patience.
"Monsior talks wat yoa call 'im gibberish.
I'avo not zo time to waste. Eef it ces
zo watch "
"Sir," replies Tibbitts sovorely, "when you
announce 'English spoken' you should Bpeak
English, or at least nnd ore tan d it. Good-morning,
or as you don't understand tho plainest
English,
He had succeeded this time, and should
havo restod on his laurels. But Tibbitts,
alas, always overdo what they undertake. Ho
had attracted so ranch amusement from bis
first experiment that ho tried it over again the
next day. He entered a similar place and
commenced tho same thing.
"What I want to know is, is the Chicago and
Nothwcstern in th.6 railroad war, and do yoa
suppose tho cutting ot rates will continue till
September, when I return, and "
'Indeed, I cannot tell yon, sir. It is something
I do not keep the run of. You had better
apply at the American exchange or the
Herald office."
This in tho best and clearest American Eng
lish, xoor Tibbitts had fallen upon a bngbt
American, who was turning his knowledge of
French to a good account by serving as a
salesman in Paris. Mr. Tibbitts smiled a
smiled a ghastly smile as he bowed himself
out of the place. Bad marksmenwho by
chanco hit! tho bull's-eye, should bo very
modest and refuse to shoot again. Even
Napolean, great aB he was, fought one battle
too many. 'Ibledo Blade.

"Ah, yes," said tho collector, eying tho
bundle of new hills he unrolled; "I Bee. You
have the pneumonia."
"You mast havo sat in a draft," said the
cashier.
"Have you taken anything to check it?"
asked tho book-keeper.
''I should dollar," said tho sick man: 'I'm
losing my appetite, and can't take cash for
breakfast."
"May be jou have the remittent feTer," said
the letter clerk.
"Is your circulation at all affected?" asked
the cashier. -
"Is it Ihe first dime you've felt this way7"
asked the collector.
The invalid nodded a cent.
"To be franc withyou' be Baid, "lam
glad you take so much interest in the case."
"You don't-appear to weigh many pounds,"
the book-keeper said, feebly, as though he
was manly enough to be ashamed of it.
"No wonder Im losing," said the sufferer,
"when I havo a chill every day and shekel
night. I'm shrunk all up."
"Yes, said the collector, "you Beem to be
short." '
"At least," said the book-keeper, "you
are no thaler."
I guess," said the strange man, looking in

Ono morning Douglass Jerrold and
Compton proceeded together to view tho
pictures in the gallery of illustration. On
entering the anteroom they found themselves
opposite to a number of very long
looking glasses. Pausing before one of
these Compton remarked to Jerrold :
"You've come hero to admire works of art;
very well, first feast your eyes on that
work of nature 1" pointing to his own
figure reflected in tho glass. "Look at it;
there's a picture for you!" "Yes," said
Jerrold, regarding it intently; very line,
very fino, indeedl" Then turning to his
friend, "Want's hanging, though 1"
