The good ship Union's voyage is o’er,
At anchor safe she swings,

Her joyous welcome rings:
Hurrah ! Hurrah I it shakes the ware,
It thunders on the shore, —

• One Nation evermore!

Election, Tuesday, November 7th.
We hot* our Re* delß will bears wilb us tt,is
week yet in the small amount of reading matter
which we present them. The Law requires that
the voters list shall be published, and we cannot
avoid the pressure on our columns. We hope
shortly to enlarge the Union and will then en
deavor to make amends to our Readers.

Another Ticket.
We are told that a Convention was held in this
place on Monday last for the purpose of nomina
tingan independent County Ticket. Their pro
ceedings seem to have been involved in considera
ble mvstery and uncertainty. It is said they nomi
nated Nelson Cooper, for Treas ; F. C. Fossett, for
Sheriff; D. J. McCauley, Stephen Miller and John
Zimmerman, for County Commissioners. Inde
pendent Tickets have always fared badly in this
County and we predict the above will share the
common fate. Personally the Regular nominee.,
are good men, of known ability and integiitv,
and as such the union meu will give them a
hearty support.
Important Decision.
A few weeks ago, we received a letter from Mr.
J. W. Webster of Harford Co. asking us to make
inquiry whether he could distill some Sorghum
molasses as an experiment and not for sale, with*,
out paying a Revenue Tax.
Through Mr. E. F. Church, Rev. Inspector,
this letter was referred to the head of the Bureau
•t Washington, who replies as follows :
“A Distiller’s license must be required to be
taken by every jierson running a still, without
any other exception than is provided by the ex
press letter of the Law. Druggists and chemists
only, may use a still for the recovery of Alcohol
used in scientific processes, without being licens
ed as Distillers. Mr. Webster will therefore be
required to take out a license lor the prosecu
tion of his “experiment.”

| The ftttapntan A<Vt.oa—So little h-.s lately j
1 leen said of tula Institution that nttnv persons
have almost forgotten its origin and design.— '
For the tienefit of such and of any others who 1
may feel interested, we will give a short account
of it. Moses Shepperd, a wealthy and charita
ble menilier of the Society of Friends, on htg de
cease* few years ago. denoted half a million
Dollars for the purpose of establishing a first
class Asylum for the Insane. In accordance with
the will, a Board of Trustees was appointed with
J. Sam in Norris Esq., as President, who pur
chased about 400 acres of land adjoining Tow
sontown, between the York Turnpike and Chits.
St. Avenue, for the purpose named in Mr. Shep-
I*erd’s will. On a fine elevation near the centre
of the property, the Asylum building is to tie
ereeted, according to a design by Mr. Vaux
of New York. When completed it will consist of
two main wings, each 400 ft. in length, with a
space of 112 ft. between intended for a Chapel.
The foundation for one wing is laid and a small
portion is under roof. The building will be of
brick with heavy stone foundations, slate roof,
fire proof, and when finished, will be one of the
largest, most substantial and ornamental build
ings of the kind in the world. The Institution
is designed to be strictly curative in its character,
and every possible care is taken to secure the
health, comfort and safety of the inmates:
Water will be supplied to the building from
a spring on the premises.
During the past summer an elegant stone man
sion in the Gothic style of architecture has been
put up for the residence of Mr. B. Vanhorn,
manager of the Farm, and various other inprove
ments.have been made and are in progress on
the Farm. Everything is being done iu the
most durable and artistic style and the institu
tion promises some day to be the pride and boast
of our county and State.
Serious Accident.—On Friday morning of
last week, a man named Patrick McKenna had,
his foot badly crushed in Mr. Abram Shertzer’s
threshing machine. Dr. Piper was immediately
summoned who found it necessary to amputate
two of the toes on the foot. Mr. McKenna was
driving the horses in the machine at the time
and accidentally had his foot caught in the cog
wheels. Farmers should be careful to have their
horse power well covered with hoards while in
use. It may save many a crushed limb. The
unfortunate man is doing well under the treat
ment of Dr. Piper.
The Philadelphia Central R. Road —The
route for this new line from Balto. to Philadel
phia, has been surveyed and will be permanent
ly located in a short time. The new Road will
leave the Phila.. Wil. and Balto. line at Stem
mer’s Run thence passing through the 12th and
11th Dists. it will CIO6B the Belair Road at Mr.
Brooks’ and the Gunpowder River at Mr. John
Fox’s Saw mill. It will prove of immense ad
vantage to that section of our county in devel
oping the fine water power found there, and li
ning the streams with Mills and Factories.
The American Hat and Cotton Press.—We
would chII the special attention of Farmers to the
above Press, advertised in our columns to-day.
This press will pack hay at least twice as compact
as any other press in use, thus saving a large
part of the present cost of transportation by Rail
Road or Steamboat. It has been successfully tri
ed and its power proved. Those who have large
quantities of hay to ship will find it greatly to
their advantage to examine this Press.
The Season.—The sharp frosts of the Inst few
weeks admonish us to prepare in time for the
cold weather approaching. Our readers will
find in to-day’s paper the Card of Constable and
Fairchild, who have opened a clothing establish
ment at No. 16 North St. Balto., We are assu
red that these gentlemen thoroughly understand
their business and that they have a fine stock of
goods. The Public would do well to call on
them.
Resumed Practice.—Maj. Gen. Jno R. Kenlv,
so well-know as the brave Commander of the Ist,
Md. Inf. at Front Royal aud other bloody en-
has resumed the practice of Law in
Balt, in the Bible House building on Fayette St.
Appointment.—Jas. W. Thompson, has bepn
appointed Post Master, at Phoenix, vice M.
Slothower, resigned.
ov. Bradford has appointed W. T.
Blackiston. Magistrate in the 1 lib district, aud
Nathan Warfield in the Ist.

J. ROBT. WARD, j
A PEACTICAL QUESTION.
IS IT CONSTITUTIONAL TO TAX BEAL ESTATE AND TUB
mortgage on it?
has been the custom of the County
Commissioners to tax both, which I think
is both unjust and unconstitutional. The fif
teenth Alt. of the Declaration of Rights says,
‘ Every person in the State (except paupers) or
person holding property therein, ought te con
tribute his proportion ot public taxes to the sup
port of the Government, according to bis actual
worth in real or personal property.”
The County Commissioners, in laying the tax
es, ought to act in accordance with said Article,
which they have sworn to support, I have been
trying to be relieved from paying two taxes, find
ing it hard enough to pay one of them. Four
years ago I called on Mr. Quinlan to ask him to
bring it before the Legislature, but that
Legislature suddenly adjourned Sine Die.—
I then wrote. to our member R. Johnson,
hut received no answer. 1 wrote to anoth
er member who replied that it looked favorable
and that was the end of it. I see the old B dird
of Commissioners is offered for re-election". That
implies pay double taxes. Now 1 contend that it
is the duty of the Commissioners when they are
making the Levy to proceed thus:
A’s property is assessed at §3OOO. In look
ing over the Records they find that B has a
mortgage of S2OOO, against him, which makes
A’s “actual worth” just SIOOO, for which be
should be assessed and no more.
Again A tells B, 1 will buy fifty acres of yoor
old field, for which I will pay you S4O per acre.
B says you can have it if you give me a mort
gage and pay whatever taxes may be on it. A
agrees to the terms. Now I think the county
rate on such lands is about three-fifths of its ac
tual value, which would make the rate of A’s
property §24 per acre—say s3o,—that is SI2OO.
Valuation Si2oo at 65 cts. on ihe bund, is $7,80
Mortgage S2OOO “ “ “ “ “ $13,00
$20.80
If I have made this correct, it is easy to see
what Mortgage property pays into the Treasury.
If it is objected that A oughJ not to pay the tax
es on the mortgage we reply, that borrowers are
compelled to submit to just such terms. And
very justly too when we see the large amount of
seven-thirties offered to the public, and our Leg
islature in passing a Bounty Loan, took care to
exempt it from taxation. You will also find that
Ground Rents are exempted, so that capitalists
have great inducements for investing their fonde
in non-tax paying investments. By exempting
one species of property from taxation you make
it heavier on another.
If a person invests his money in any of the
above exempted property, he does not even pay
for schooling his children, provided he send*
them to the Public Schools. No matter what
the amount he holds, he does not even pay as
much as the widow with seven children would
pay on a mortgage of SIOOO unless she bad
made an agreement with the mortgager.
1 stated above that the Legislature exempted
the Bounty Loan from taxation. Now you see
their wisdom. They tell tbiir constituents, You
must pay taxes on the amount you borrow, bnt
the State must not. Or in other words, the
Mortgager must pay. If the State or County cre
ates a loan and the authorities levy a tax o f one
dollar to the hundred, they would be compelled
to pay a premium of from sl7 to S2O on the
hundred to obtain it else capitalists wouldn’t in
vest in it.
To conclude, J see by the last County paper,
that the old Board of Commissioners was re-nom
inated. Four other names were before the Con
vention among which was mine. I did not per
mit it to be offered expecting to succeed. But if
the citizens of the County are willing to give the
foregoing a trial I should like those favorable, to
select a new Ticket and test the matter. lam
opposed to the practice of the present Board. I
called on this board several years ago with refer
ence to the matter, but received no further satis
faction than— Pay your taxes on your mortgage.
I therefore call upon all those favorable to ihe
movement to assemble at the Court House ia
Towsoutown, on
Wednesday , October 18 th, at 2 o'clock , P. M. t
to take into consideration the best remedy to be
applied. JOHN FOX,
Eleventh District.
