Thw Redemption of 5.amis Voi f?itetl
to the State for Non Payinenit of
Taxes.
In our lur.t i ssue of August 30th, we
published u letter from Comptroller*
Oon.-ral Iloge to Hon. S. J.
TjCc, in reference to the redemption of
lands sold for the payment of tuxes, and
forfeited to the State for the want of,
bidders, and remarked at the time that
it was the intention of Mr. Lee t?test
the soundness of the Comptroller's at-,
titndc on this subject iu the Courts.
Our own views of the matter coincided
with those of Mr. l.eo, but as tho sub
ject was somewhat obscured by the
amount of legislation which has heun
had on the tax question for thepast fotfr
years, we determined to postpone any
expression until pa could embrace the
opportunity of critical ly examining the
question. This we have done, and the
enquiry has satisfied us that the Comp
troller is wrong. In the Drstplace, hp
seems to labor under a misapprehension
ot the law when he broadly asserts that
such land? cannot be redeetno 1, and re
fers to section 1 OS of the laws of 1808,
alleged to have been amended by act
of March 12. 1S72. and confirmatory of
his ox>inion. Now this section does]
not refer1 to forfeited lauds, and was
never legally amended by the act refer
red to; ami it is ?hange that Mr. Uogo
should so believe when he had bcf?>ro
him tho Revi-ed Statutes, in which this
very fcction. as well as others, of the
tax act ol 1 boo wore adopted and made
the. law of the State by act of February,
IS72, and of f..r<v by the provisions of
the Constitution Art. 3, Sec. 22, Tit
EX. Pep.
At the tiuie of the passage of tho acf j
of Maruh 12. 1S.72, no portion of the '
tax act o( 1808 was ot force, ae ofthat
year, and tluteloie, w hen the-Legiala
turo by Fee. !*. of the former,
sought to am:ud Sen. 108
and other sections of tUc latter, it nttcin
ptcd to amend a statute that was no lon
ger the law of tho ?State, h ving become
nullified by the re enactment and adop
tion of its provisions in the Code ot
Statute law, made tlu; law >f the State
by the act and iu the manner before sta
ted The Revised Statute? embody all
the Statu laws of the Stuto of Torce at
the time oTthe tinal r*port of the Com
missioners, by virtue of A. A. March 'J.
1800, passed in pursuance, of Aft. 5,
Sec. 3 of the State Constitution* The
.next report was made November
1871, so that this Code contains all the
law of & Statutory character in force ?p
to that date, and made so by A. A.
February, 1S72, and in legal contempla
tion tin sc Statutes ate to he eomider
ed as having h? en pased at the same time
?? In constructiifg a rerffM? Cede of laws
they are to be considered as- contem
poraneous arts, parts of one entire sys
(em of law."? Id nkweil on l ax Titles,
61f>. From aud after tho re-enactment
audndiption of the Revised Statutes,
the tux act passet September 15, 1308,
ceased to exist as the law of tLo State,
but its provisions were made law by act
of February, 1872. Pamphlet acts,
1872, pp. 37. It will bo clearly per
ceived, therefore, that the Legislature,
in Sec. 1 of tho A et of Mifeh 12, 1872
ignorantly amended an act that was not
of force, and that, tho only law in rela
tion to the as>c?(meut and collection of

Fuget, n carpenter, and J ack While, a

with six-shooters. A feud had existed
between tho men for some time : and a

as well settle our trouble pcre. Draw
aud defend yonrtelf." unite said he
was not armed, and Fugel replied Lb tt
he believed him r. lfhr. The nic'a then,
separated with the understanding that,
they would fight Abe first time they
met. Might before last the men again
met on the corner of Main Btreet and h
i iittle all y running up into Efta Chinese
i quarter. They bad no sooner recognize I
each other than the battle began. There
were several persons in the neighbor

White, who was passing along the side
walk When the firing began Fug t
placed himself behind an aw ling p >ft
nt the corner of the street and alley,
while White stood on the side walle.
Tho firing was very rapid ; s i rapid,
indeed, that many who heard it thought
that inoro than two men were engaged
in the shooting. The majority of those
who were in the neighborhood when the
shooting began ran uwuy as fast as their
legs would Carry thorn ; but two or three
men, yWo jaufthi Cnsltur iu tho iron
doorways of Hurkha'ter's store, stood
their ground and wilncvsel the w!i de
r attic. White fell first, and ntrik ing ffg
the edge of the sidewalk, rolled into a
gutter about eighteen inches*in depth':
Fuget fell abuu.1 .tho siiuo time, soeming

White was lying, and at no great dis
?ane* from hint. Hetwoen the two men
lay n bundle of gunny sack?, owing to
which they wore unable to see eaoh
other. F?get began to crawl toward
While, who lay in the gutter unable to
rise. Ho dragged himself n'ong the
gutter until he reached the gunny sacks.
He climbed Jup on these until he could
sec his mortal onuiny, und then fired at
him his two remaining shots. White
aroused himself, and by groat clfort
rai>ad his pistol an 1 fired his last shut,
which rolled Fuget from his p isition on
the s.; aud, cud' 1 tho uosporu'e md

When the firing ceased and only
groans were to be heard, the citizens
rapidly collected, and poob a great
rrowd was on the bloody battle fiel I
Tho bleeding and groaning men wore
carried to where they could be carod
for. Fuget, however. ne?d: \ but litllj
care, as ho Was dying when taken up .
and lived less than ten minutes. The
shot which proved fatal struck him in
the lote groin, SCYeriug a largo artery,
Ho bIM frightfully. Wbitos wounds
wero three in riiTuitter. and of stich a
naturejh.it they must u bessarily j.v >ve
fatal. One shot pulsed through his
body, from side tu tide,.just ubove the
hips ; another tutored ins right breaat.
and ranging back, lodged agi'mst his
spine ;' tho third BrVdck him in the
lower j art of the abdomen, passing
through tho bladder.
Alter the shooting, and while his
wounds were being examined. White
said that hcrwas fired nt by another nun
besides Fugot. This mau, he said, was
a large matt( with heavy blaok w.ii>k,ur?,
?Who sfobd ' fn the alley le lo'n ; up fut i
Chinatown, and fired three snots ni him,
alter which he ran away up the nlley
Afterward, on being more clusoly
quaslioued about this man, White
refused to say anything more iu regard
to him, or to givo his name, cvon if ho
knew it Many persons who were in
the neighborhood at the time of the
shooting are quito certain that more
than two men were engaged in it. They
say 'thai it seems almost impossible that
two men, armed with com u m six
ihootcrs, could have done such rapid
firing, and when the men were taken up
and the pistols examined there was a
general expression of puprisc on seeing
they wtjre not selfeockors. Sovcral
bullet? struck tho iron shutters of the.
store, and the men who sereoncd thefn-]

Curl osniosof Sea Water.
The piinciples in tho circulation ol
the wafers of life sea were beautifully
shown before the Royal (jcographical
Society, Engl md. recently, by a simple
experiment. A trough with plate gU-w,
side-*, about si.v, feot iu'ig ;iud a foot
doep. hut not mprc than an inch wide,
was tilled with water. At one end a
piece ol ice was wedged in between ilia
-ides to rcprepen* (he p.d ir eoM, while
the tropic heat was represented at the
oihcr end by a bar ol mVd illaid act o s
I the surface ol" the water, the projecting
end of which was h .?ted by a spirit
tamp. Hod coloring matters was then
pul iu at the warm end, und blue at the
cold end 80 that the currents could he
traced. The blue water, chilled by Ooll
tact with the jco, immediately fell dowu
to the bottom*, crept slowly along, and
I gradually ro.-e toward the surface of the
equatorial end, after which it gradually
j returned along tho surface to the start
ing point. Tho J rod water crept first
along the surface of the polar end, tbon
: fell to the bottom just as tho blue had
, done, aud formed another stratum,
creeping back again along tho bottom
and coming to the surface. Each color
made a distinct circulation during tho
half hour in which the audience viowed
the experiment.
