The Tax Ordinance and the Bank*.
E/titor Mominq Sew* :
The tax ordinance lately passed by the
City Council, is the subject of much discus
sion among all classes. 1 have read it closely
and have been impressed with the various
features therein contained, especially with
the marked discrimination in favor
of the hanks. Why these institutions
should be so particularly fvaored I know
not, but it seems to mo that they are fully
as able to hear taxes as any of the loan asso
ciations, insurance companies and other
corporations. Why, then, are these banks
not equally taxed with those corporations ?
I find on examining the tax ordinance of
1874 that this discrimination does not
appear.
Section II of that ordinance levies a tax of
“oue-quarter of one per centum on all hank
stocks, except bonds of the city of Savan-
Special 9otuts.
‘•Tkerc , s .Million* in It.”
It is perhaps unnecessary to say that all
classes of theatre goers will be delighted to
learn that on Monday evening next the
distinguished comedian, Mr. John T. Ray
mond, will commence his long talked of
engagement at the Savannah Theatre.
Mr. Raymond is well known in Savannah,
having been iu years past manager and
comedian on our boards, and among our
citizens there is a great desire to see him
since ho has achieved such a national
reputation. Ho will, during his engage
ment, impersonate that matchless por"
traituro of a speculative American, “Col.
Mulberry Sellers.”
A Baltimore exchange (the name of the
paper has escaped our memory) has this to
say of Mr. Raymond:
“Since his last appearance in Baltimore
the gonial Co’onel has unfolded his magnifi
cent schemes to large aud appreciative audi
ences in all sections of the country, and in
the Southern cities ‘they are waiting for him
now.’ Mr. Raymond has for years been
recognized as one of the best American
comedians living, but the astonishing suc
cess that his portraiture of ‘Col. Mulberry
Sellers’ has met with may be attributed to
the fact that the ever sanguine Colonel is a
character most theatre goers have been
acquainted with iu every day life. The
strong points of the character are admira
bly brought out by Mr. Raymond, who
seems to be firmly impressed with the
Idea that -there are millions in the optical
liniment, the great land scheme, and the
mammoth mule aud hog speculations. The
play had a most remarkable run in New
lork this season, and, judging from its suc
cess, the character will become as lastingly
popular as Jefferson’s ‘ Rip Van Winkle,’
or Owens’s ‘Solon Shingle.’ During his
recent engagement in Boston, the critics
unite in saying that the character of ‘Col.
Mulburry Sellers’ is one of the few
American dramatic portiaits that will live
to be remembered by the next gen
eration. The 4 Gilded Age ’ was writ
ten by Mark Twain expressly for Mr.
Raymond, but neither author nor actor
anticipated anything like the success the
drama has met with. As has been remarked
by a well-known theatrical critic of New
York, it is doubtful whether there is another
comedian in the country whose nature and
abilities would suit the character ot ‘Col.
Mulberrv Sellers’ as well as Mr. Raymond.
In addition to the genial, whole-souled, but
somewhat erratic Colonel, there arc* a num
ber of other exquisitely-drawn characters in
the play, and those persons that do not wit
ness tho ‘Gilded Age,’ daring its coming
production at Ford’s Grand Opera House,
will miss a raro dramatic treat, and any
number of hearty laughs.”
Our Foreign Trade—Savannah Rank*
Third in Export*.
The following table shows the imports
and domestic exports for tho month of No
vember, 1875, at the ports named. It will
be observed that whilst Savannah’s imports
are trifling in comparison with those of
other ports in the matter of domestic ex“
ports, she ranks third among the ports
n&mdd, leading Philadelphia over $2,000,000,
aud San Francisco and Boston over $3,000,-

A Long Journey for a Fugitive—He E*
cape*.
It will be romembered that a month or
two since young Hamburger, book keeper
m tho tobacco house of Messrs. Myers Bros,
suddenly left the city, and an investigation
into his accounts resulted in the discovery of
divers inaccuracies. It being ascertained that
he had gone to San Francisco, officer Julius
Kaufman about three weeks ago was depu
tized by the firm to proceed thither with a
requisition from the Governor of Georgia.,
arrest the fugitive aud bring him buck to
Savannah. Kaufman, who is known as
one of the shrewdest, moBt efficient and
fearless officers in the city, prepared him
self for the long journey, and it was confi
dently expected by those who knew him
that he would return with the fugitive,
provided the latter was in the land
of the living. He reached San Francisco
safely, aud arrested Hamburger, but the
latter having influential friends iu that city,
the writ of habeas corpus was brought into
requisition, aud the usual delays of the law
, followed, but Officer Kaufman came
out all right, secured his man
and started Southward. A rela
tive of Hamburger’s accompanied him in
order to see that he had every justice at a
trial, to employ counsel, etc. On the route
Hamburger was taken sick, and the vigi
lance which Kaufman had previously
exercised was, it is supposed, somewhat re
laxed. Whilst on the cars, just before
teaching Nashville, Kaufman saw that
his prisoner was comfortable, and, as he
thought,secure,aud being greatly iu need of
rest, concluded that it was perfectly safe to
indulge himself. Alas, for numau expecta
tion ! Iu the morning when they arrived at
Nashville, and were aroused, it was found
that the sick bird had spread his
wings and flown. Great wa9 the
consternation as the cause and man
ner of his flight could not he determined
Hamburger’s relative was equally as sur
prised and dumbfonnded at tho sudden
flight as was officer Kaufman. He came on
direct to Savannah, and reached here yes
terday, leaving Kaufman in Nashville to
endeavor to ascertain something in regard
to the escaped prisoner. Nothing could be
learned, however, and wo understand that
Kaufman has left for Savannah aud will ar
rive here to-day, when the full particulars
of the mysterious escape may be
gleaned From the facts as reported
to us wo can discover no
cause to attach any blame to officer Kauf
man, and it is to ne regretted that he has
had so long and tiresome a journey for
nothing.
Rcatli of a Valuable Horse Through Care*
less ties*.
In the laconic column of yesterday’s News
appeared a paragraph stating that a plow
had been picked up the previous night in
the street, near the corner of Bryan and
Whitaker, which it was supposed had been
dropped from some wagon. Such, however
was not the case, &dJ we have since learned
that the plow figured in a tragical occurrence.
It seems that a driver for Messrs. Bacon
A Bowles, wood dealers, drove his wagon up
iu front of the store of Messrs. Palmer A
Deppish, shortly after dusk on Monday even
ing, and hitched his horse to some plows
which wero on the sidewalk, and then went
off somewhere. During his absence the horse
a very tine black animal, became frightened
at some noise in the street and started off,
pulling over two of the plows to which the
hitching rein was tied. The racket increas
ed the Iright of tho animal, and he dashed
wildly up the street, the tongues of the
plows striking against his legs and body,
cutting them badly. Ho had not run far
before one of the plows dropped, but the
rein was securely tied to the other, and the
strap being strong, it remained steadfast,
aud as tho horse continued at a full gallop,
it was at times thrown high in the air by
coming in contact with the curbing and ve
hicles on the route. Near the corner of
Bryan and Whitaker streets the animal
managed to get rid of it, hut by
this time was very badly cut np,
and bruised, in fact perfectly helpless, one
of his legs being broken. He was carried
off and subsequently killed.
As there are two hitching posts in tho
immediate vicinity of Messrs. Palmer A
Dcppish's store, it seems strange that the
driver should have utilized the plows for
that purpose.

The Augusta Constitutionalist, comment
ing upon these figures, remarks :
“Some of these days, when we have direct
trade with Europe, Savannah may be able to
sell her cotton for foreign goods instead of
buying them at a New York agency; and
when our Augusta merchants shall go to
Savannah and other Southern ports for their
stocks, instead of across the Potomac river,
we shall be a great country indeed.”

A Fraud.
It is believed that the party who appeared
at tho Theatre on Monday night as Professor
Herman is the same who engineered the
“Galaxy” troupe in Wilmington, N. C., and
which was pronounced a first-class fraud.
The performance was ridiculous, the so.
called Professor particularly distinguishing
himself by murdering the Queen’s English.
The handsome presents which were to be
distributed consisted of common steel key
rings and other similar trifles. Many of the
envelopes sold at the door contained blanks,
and yet the party had the cheek to attempt
to sell more in the audience. The Professor,
who it appears rejoices in many aliases, an
nounced that he would play last night, but,
as might have been expected, he quietly
folded his cloak and silently stole away.

The following year the banks were relieved
of this tax, and required only to pay a spe
cific tax in common with other corporations,
as will appear from the following section
quoted from the tax ordinance of 1875 :
Section IV. * “Aud every person or
corporation, other than bankers and banks,
taxed according to their gross earnings, re
ceiving interest on bonds, notes, mort
gages. judgments, etc., except bonds of the
city of Savannah, and other bonds exempt
by State law, shall pay a tax of one per
centum on the amount of such interest so
received.”
Now, Mr. Editor, can you explain to me,
and to many others equally interested iu
the subject, why other corporations should
have been taxed one per cent, on the intei'-
est received on bonds, notes, etc., daring
the year 1875 and that banks should have
been exempted ?
The new ordinance, however, goes further
by imposing an additional tax of one and
one-quarter per cent, upon interest derived
from bonds, etc., by other corporations and
at the same time exempts the banks, as
will be seen by the following
Sec. IY. Every person or corporation,
other than hankers aud banks, taxed accord
ing to their earnings, receiving interest on
notes, mortgages, judgments, or other evi
dences of debt, except bonds of the city of
Savannah and other bonds exempt by law,
shall pay a tax of two and one-quarter per
centum on the amount of such interest so
received.
I do not doubt or question the superior
financial wisdom of the Board of Council,
but confess I cannot perceive the equity of
such discrimination, and I ask if you can
enlighten me ? Imjui&eb.
Jumped 111* Bond.
On Monday last & paragraph appeared in
the Mousing News in which it was stated
that a young man, under the influence of
liquor, had attacked a colored boy on Bryan
street and cut him severely in the hand. He
was arrested by the police, hat, knowing
that a warrant had been taken oat for his
arrest on the charge of assanlt with intent
to murder, we omitted mention of his name
until the misdemeanor should be disposed
of in the Police Court and he turned over to
a magistrate. He was, however, released
at the barracks, on a $100 bond, to appear
at the court on Monday, Mr. George Jansen
becoming bondsman. He did not appear,
however, and yesterday it was ascertained
that he had left the city. The name
of this party is Charles DeLorge, well
known in connection with the killing ol
MacDonald at Thunderbolt on Christmas
eve, 1873. The particulars of this late affair
are as follows: On Saturday evening, De
Lorge, who apparently had been drinking,
whilst coming up Bryan street met a negro
boy,whom he assaulted without provocation.
The negro retreated, and DeLorge con
tinued on his way until he reached Feeley’s
stable, iu front of which was the buggy of
Captain James G. Clarke, in charge of his
colored boy, who was waiting for Captain
Clarke and'Jadge Tompkins,wno were about
to start on a ride. De Lorgo, it is stated,
ordered the negro to let him get in the
buggy, and made an attempt to enter it,
which was resisted by the boy. He there
upon savagely assaulted him with a drawn
knife, inflicting a severe wound in the hand.
Captain Clarke had the warrant issued,
and it is thought that this coming to the
knowledge of De Lorge, induced him to
levant, leaving his bondsman to plank down
a one hundred dollar bill for his kindness.

Painful Accident.
Last night about twelve o’clock a colored
employe at the Gem Saloon, Andrew W.
Lodky, whilst in the act of lowering one of
the rear windows, met with a rather painfal
accident. The sash slipped from his grasp,
and in an effort to catch it he ran his right
hand against a pane, smashing it. The
gla-s cut his wrist, inflicting a severe
wound, from which the blood epurted
freely. The cut was properly dressed
by Captain Robert Donald, the well known
stevedore, who proved himself a capital
surgeon, well entitled to a diploma. Ho
was ably assisted by Mr. Alex. Fernandez,
who deserves credit for the tremendous
nerve ho displayed on tho occasion, by
holding Andrew’s arm while the wound was
being dressed. In a short time, under such
experienced treatment, Andrew was quite
serene, and will be cooking oysters as usual
to-day.

Caution to Housekeepers.
Owing to the increasing cost of vanilla beans
used in the manufacture of extract of vanilla,
spurious compounds are being thrown upon the
market purporting to be pure vanilla, but pre
pared principally from Tonqua beans. This naus
eating substitute costs the manufacturer less than
one-twentieth part as much as the genuine van
illa bean. It can readily be detected by its odor.
It Is used principally by tobacconists for per
fuming snuff and cigars, and was never intended
to be used as a flavoring for the various com
pounds prepared for the human stomach. Bur
nett’s Extract of Vanilla is prepared from selected
vanilla beans, and is warranted entirely free from
Tonqua or other deleterious substances.
