remember his dress, and I saw and
heard much that impressed me, and I
cnino to Africa, and was 35 days on the

and thought I would be thrown into the

voice and said to mo : "Why seek ye

feared death. Here follow remarks to

Franklin County's Tax Suit.
The following is the opinion delivered
in the Supreme Court last Saturday
morning by Hon. Jno. M. Rright, spe
cial Judge in this ease :
Franklin County vs. Nashville, Chatta
nooga & St. Louis Railroad and the
Nashville, Chattanoogii A St. Lmiis
Railroad vs. Fiiinkliu County.
In this ense it is shown that Franklin
eotiiitj-'H trustee assessed thirty-four
miles of railroad in its houudur'icM for
the years front 1875 to 1881, claiming
they hud the right to assess the roads
as the act of 1875 nnd the amendments
thereto of 1X77-78 had been declared
unconstitutional and void in 7 Lea Mil,
the county having assessed the road ac
cording to that act for those years and
hail obtained the tuxes thereoti.
The court held that in the first place
the eonnty assessor com Id not assess for
any years previous to his term of tin
ofliee where taxes had failed to be as
sessed, or where they had been illegally
assessed.
Where under the net of 187H the de
cree of the assessors and examiners is
made final, by the legislature, eillier
party can obtain a certioraris in order
to have the case tried again before cir
cuit court, and by appeal from that to
this court.
Reallirmed, the case in 7 Lea 201,
holiling that those sections reoniiiiiL'
the property of the railroad to be val
ued in the aggregate, nod a proportion'
ment made of the same in thu various
counties according to the number of
miles in the respective counties is un
constitutional ami void ; but ns the
railroads were formerly assessed by the
counties for the years they now elaiin
to have a right to assess again, were as
sessed under the tonus of law and hav
ing obtained the taxes due according to
said assess incut, although it was illegal,
they cannot now bo heard to complain,
and more particularly so when they
have not been injured but benefited, as
they obtained more under the net of
1875 than they would if ucscsscd prop,
erly.
