New York Supremo Court—Chambers.
Important Opinion—Legal 'Vender Notes, Alios
“ Greenbacks,” ore Liable to Local Taxation.
TtKFOItE JUDGE LEONARD.
The. People ex rcl. The. Bank of New York
sis. The Board of Supervisors of the County of
Neu s York. —On the 26th of February a motion
was ramie by the relator lor mandamus to com
pel the Board of Supervisors to audit the re
lator’s claim lor (lie refunding of luxes paid
in 1808 and 1804 upon capital invested in legal
tender notes. The following opinion was yes
terday delivered by Mr. Justice Leonard deny
ing the applieaiion :
In the act. of 1802 the legal tender notes arc
called money. The principal object of the act
was to give them currency as money. They
draw no.interest. They were put into circula
tion, and have been received in payment of
debts, public and private, ns money. The va
lidity of ttie act has been sustained by the court
of last resort. The judges of that court, in the
different opinions or arguments in relation to
the eoustitutionality of the law, speak ot them
as issued upon the credit of the Government,
and as a means of borrowing adopted by the
Government, but the conclusion does not fol
low that they are not to be considered ns money.
The notes are not commercially known as pub
lic securities, nor are they dealt- in as such. It
is only indirectly that they operate, in favor of
the Government as a means of borrowing.
Unlike “ Government securities ” they are pay
aide on demand. They are not within the ex
emption from taxation given by statute in re
spect to the various loans offered by Congress,
and were received by thejjovernvnent as money
when their bonds were offered for sale or to
effect, loans. I think Congress did not intend
that they should lie exempt from local taxation.
For these reasons lam inclined to hold them
to be money, and as such to be subject to taxa
tion. The application is denied, with costs.
New Printing Press.—There has just been
completed and put in running order at the Got
eminent printing office one of the most won
derful pieces of mechanism in the shape of a
printing press that has ever been exhibited.
The press is of the, Bullock patent, and, as an
exhibition of some of its powers, wc will men.
"tion: The press will print in one hour 20,000
sheets of C 4 pages of document matter ; while
doing this it feeds itself, (the paper being in
rolls,) wets the paper, cuts the sheets, folds
them, and, by a dial connected to the press,
keeps tally of the number ot sheets printed.
Only two men are required to have entire con
trol of the press, thus doing away with the ne
cessity of persons to supply it with sheets, or,
as they are called, feeders. The invention Is
certainly a wonderful one, and has been visited
since Wednesday’by a large number of persons,
who could not realize the power and utility of
the machine.
Wo understand that Mr. Parsons, pressman
at the office, has been engaged to set up and
have charge of one of these presses at the Paris
Exhibition.
Sermon of a Hebrew in a Christian
Church.—Rev. Dr. Max Lillenthai, the Rabbi
of the Jewish synagogue in Cincinnati, occu
pied the pulpit of the Unitarian church, in that
city, on Sunday morning last. He took for his
text, “Fear ye not; stand still and see the sal
vation of the Lord and the subject of his dis
course was “A free Church in a free State.”—
This was, probably, the first occasion of the oc
cupation of a Christian pnlpit Gh'iSunday, by a
Jewish preacher. fuwff
2n-U)cckln Constitutionalist
diaries F. Browue. (Artemas Ward.)
i The deal it of Mr. Chns. F. Browue, better
, known as Artemas Ward, is announced by the
cable as having taken place at Southampton on
the Ttli Inst. Mr. Browue was bom in Water
ford, Ale., anil-at a comparatively early age went
to the West and served as compositor in sever
al newspaper offices, among them the Cleveland
Plainilealer. While thus engaged lie wrote
several humorous articles over the signature of
Artcmns Ward, which were marked liygenniue
wit and shrewdness. Extensive reproduction
of these articles in other journals opened the
highway of a peculiar literature to him, and
dropping flic composing stick, he readily enter
ed upon it. After a brief career as occasional
correspondent of sundry Western papers, and
as contributor to sundry periodicals, he came
to this city, and witli several of his friends en
gaged in (lie publication of Vanity Fair, a
weekly publication devoted to fun and satire.
His letters in that journal were widely copied
in the daily press, and the name of Artemns
Ward soon became familiar from one end of
the land to the other. Jq a short time the in
terest, of tlie public in the enterprise flagged,
and it was confided to Air. Browne’s splc charge,
lmt after a spasmodic revival, shared the fate of
all similar adventures In this country.
Somewhat discouraged tiy the result of his
endeavor, Mr. Browne made sundry attempts
at regular work upon the daily newspaper
press, but finding the labor uncongenial, he de
termined so embark upon the field of lecturing. 1
With this purpose he made a trip across the
Plains, indulged in an apochryphal capture by
the Indians, encountered Brigham Young, vis
ited the Mormons, and returned with his mate
ria] to New York. His lectures, embellished
and explained by the paintings which he hu
morously described, were successful in a popu
lar sense, but. the pecuniary return was compa
ratively slight. lie then went to England, lec
tured with great success, and was offered a po
sition upon Punch, which he accepted.
Shortly after this lie was taken seriously 111,
and, by tile advice of his physicians, went to
Southampton, where lie remained until his
dentil. But a few days since letters were re
ceived from him indicating a hopeful conva
lescence, and expressing the intention of re
luming home so soon as the acuteness of his
disease should pass away.
Mr. Brown was about 85 years of ago, tall, ,
well formed, with a florid complexion. His
mind was quick, analytic, ami accurate in its
judgment of men and motives. Personally, he
was tender-hearted, kind and gentle in his
habit, generous and thoughtful in liis dealings
with others. His humor was undeniable, and
that lie did not prostitute it -to any immoral
ends is not the least of his merits. He leaves
many sincere friends, who will mourn the
genial companion not less than the successful
humorist and writer.
In his last will and testament he forgot not.
the craft to which he belonged, hut made pro
vision for an asylum for snperanuated and dis
abled printers.
T7is funeral took at Kersall Green. The re
mains were followed so the grave hv a great (
number of literary gentlemen and friends, in- ]
eluding many Americans. The United States
legation was represented by Mr. Morris, secre
tary to Minister Adams.

■The congregation of thcJTr.ev. Mr. PoliVy’s
church, being very reluctant to close up their
Sunday entertainment for yvnrit* of funds,
adopted the above advertised manner of pre
venting that necessity', and wc are. gratified (?)
to announce that it was a complete success. I
over one hundred dollars was real
ized, ami the delighted public will rejoice to 1
know that the Reverend gcnllemnn, assisted liy t
1 lie same and oilier mem Iters of his eougrega 1
tion, contemplate a repetition of these exhibi
tions.
Should the Lecture Room prove too small for
the andtenee, the church will lie fitted up with
a stage, curtains, etc , and used for the exhibi
tion, as the Broad is the- way Church is deter
rained to please the public, and secure to them
selves the blessed advantages of the gospel.
Who would have believed, only a few years
ago, that such progress as this, in this direction,
would have been made? It is attributable
largely to the IJ ad co-operation of the ministry
in the fairs, hot suppers, tableaux, theatrical
exhibitions and lotteries which were so cfHeicnt
in procuring money for enclosing soldiers’ cem
eteries, for church repairs, parsonage furniture,
organs for public worship, etc., at a time when
onr beloved South was too impoverished to
give money for such purposes, unless they
were well paid for it, in pleasure other than that
which arises from “the luxury of doing good.”
The Church and the ministry, it will be seen,
have in a few years taught flic world a very im
portant lesson, that is, not, to give a single dol
lar so the poor, the ministry, or to any benevo
lent or religious enterprise without first putting
them in a good humor by a ball, a theatrical re
presentation, or a clerical show ! May not you
and I, gentle reader, live to see the minister
(baton Sabbath morning “mourns” unto a peo
ple that, will not “lament,” on Sabbath night
“pipe” to them that they may “dance” ?
Truly, “the world moves.” All jesting aside,
what would Christ and the Apostles have said
to Christians who were raising money for re
ligious or any_ other purpose, liy exhibiting
their personal charms before a gazing multi
tude ?
What would tliey say to the expenditure of
hundreds of dollars upon dress and other
paraphernalias, to secure one hundred dollars
for the Lord ?

American Blood Purifier !
THE QUEEN S DELIGHT!
ean Alterative and Blood Purifier, is the mo (ft perfect
vegetable compound of alteratives, tonics, diuretics
and diaphoretics ; making it the most effective invig
orating, rejuvenating and blood-cleansing cordial
known to the world.
In introducing this new and extraordinary tiiedicimi
to the public, observation leads us to remark that too
little attention is paid to the “ life of all ilesli,” the
Wood. Many diseases, and, too many complaints,
which have their origin in a vitiated state of the Wood,
are treated only as symptoms and results ; whereas, if
ttie remedy had been applied to enrich the blood nml
render it pure, both cause and effect would have been
remove*). The Queen’s Delight is offered to the
afflicted as a sure remedy for those diseases arising
from au impure condition of tho Wo ad. It has a direct
and specific action upon that fluid, aud consequently
renders the blood puro. It is said, oil high authority,
that “ man no sooner begins to live than lie begins to
die, and that the characteristics of the living organism
ate ceaseless change and ceaseless waste.’ It is
obvious,-therefore, to every reflecting mind, that unless
the Wood is pure, ill supplying the waste tissues with
material, it must he the cause ot innumerable ills and
constitutional disorders, such as Scrofula, Rheuma
tism, Hepatic Disorders, Consumption, Inflammations,
Fevers, &c. Life and health is only to he maintained
by the circulation of pure artericl blood.
We therefore advise every one whose blood is ill tho
least vitiated by indulgence or excess, and whose con
tention is impaired by disease and is suffering from
Rhematism, Liver Complaint, Consumption, Scrofula
or King’s Evil, Carbuncles, Boils, Itching Humor of
the Skin, Erysipelas, Skin Diseases, Tetter, Roughness
ot the Skin, Pimples, Blotches, l’ains in the Bones,
old Ulcers, Syphilis and Syphilictic Sores, Indigestion,
Inflammation of the Bladder and Kidneys, Pains in
the Back, General Debility, and for all complaints
arising from deficiency and poverty of blood, to use
ttie Queen's Delight.
Females of delicate constitution, suffering from
weakness and depression of mind in consequence of
those complaints which nature imposes at the period
ol change, have a Mfasant and sure remedy in the
Queen’s Delight.
Children whose fair and ruddy complexion gave ear
ly promise of heaUbhind beauty, hut too soon become
blartchcd hnfl 'paTv by some hereditary taint of the
blood, will have the rich boon restored by using the
Queen’s Delight.
The ur.acciimated and persons traveling ir.to warm
countries will find the Queen’s Delight a great protec
tion from all malarious affection and diseases which
originate in a change of climate, diet and life.
The extraordinary’ and unprecedented cures per
formed by the Queen’s Delight Compound is attract:
ing the attention of every one, not only at home, hut
abroad. The merits of this compound are being felt
and appreciated everywhere. Hear what they say of
it in New York : “It is a remedy ot much importance
and value, exerting an influence over all the secre
tions, which is unsurpassed by any other known al
terative. It is extensively used iu all the various
forms of primary and secondary syphilitic affections;
also in scrofulous, hepatic and cutaneous diseases, in
which its use is followed by the most successful re
suits.”
Its properties as a remedy were first introduced to
the notice ol the profession by Dr. Thos. Young Si
mons, of South Carolina, ns early as 1828, as a valua
ble alterative remedy in syphilitic affections, and
others requiring use of mercury. Dr. Simons’ state
ments have been endorsed and extended by I)r. A.
Lopez, of Mobile, and Dr. 11. R. Frost, of Charles
ton. From the reports in ita favor, there seems no
reason to doubt the efficacy of this medicine in Sec
ondary Syphilis, Scrofula, Otttaneous Diseases,
Chronic Hepatic Affections and other complete
benefitted by alterative medicines.
