EVERY NIGHT THIS WEEK. Court of Quarter Sessions—linportan Charge of Judge Mellon. The December term of the Court of Quarter Sessions commenced yesterday morning, Judges Mellon, Adams and Brown on the bench. The list of grand jurors was oalled over sixteen answering to their names. ’ traverse jurors answered to their names at the first call. The returns of the constables of parties Belling liquor in their respective districts were then received. As is generally the case, not more than ono-thiid of the offi cers made their returns. The grand jury was now Bworn by Mr. Fullwood. li is eonfuituted thus: j w' Blackburn Foreman; Sam’l Andrews Henry Ackley, J >hn Barkley, David Car nahan, J ss. Carson, jr., Wm. Curry John Dougherty, Wm. Ewing, .Jacob iercer A. H. Gilleland. Wm. Hune, Edward Kearns, Caleb Lao, ir.. John Moore, Jas. Rigby. Judge Mellon then proceeded to charge the grand jury, at great length, on the subject of our railroad indebtedness and the heavy rate of county taxes. After remarking upon the light calendor for the te-m, and the national troubles the Judge spoke of the avalanche of debt with whichjjonr county ia burdened, briDgine the machinery of the public business to al. most a dead lock, and rendering it a mat ter of doubt whether the witnesses will be paid this term. The assessed valuation of our property, (including occupations! is $27,955,098, viz: Pittsburgh, sio 534 70s. Allegheny, $3 703,641 ; rural 'district boroughs and villages. $13,606 686 This Will hardly be increased by the assessment ?° w progre,<!

By this shewing at least one fourth of the property ir, the county h - longs to her credit-.,is, wb : e the Jtiis „»*. in cyan a worse condition Tnis do.-, zul include borough or l. wnabip debts or the amount necessary to be raised fo- ordinary annual ex pens-.-8. • J Pne estimated t»xs-? f-r next ye&r for county puroosc-e, five mills; for rJ’ ! - road purposes, thirty-five mills; for sch .'ol purposes, 8$ miiU; poor tax, JJ mill taxes, aveiaged wuh township an- I ’road taxes, 2 mills; State tax, 2* null,; BpH ; ai do. for intere.-t on $3,000,090 loan, A mill special do. for reiiei of v.>J-.,nteers,’4'miii»; direct tax, 3 milis—making a total of 02 milts The Judge goes on la fay : •■in l:i , , the ci.ioa an sssossm.'iu to meet the in terest on its own •; • I railroad dt'U must be added to lha i.irvgcing. Interest on all the railroad debts is payable semi annualiy, and the principal is due at about twenty years hence. You have seen that to pay thecounty railroad interest due requires 35 mills, and subsequently, for accruing in.erest, 5$ mills per annum. Besides this it requires to meet lha interest due from the city of Pittsburgh, 50 mills, and 10 mills for the accruing interest afterwards • and for Allegheny City 30 mills, aDd 6A mills afterwards. The aggregate taxes for all purposes next year is therefore as fuh low«: In the rural districts of the county 62 mill* In t‘ e city of Pittsburgh 112 « ’ Jq Allegheny city 92 « After the prrsf-nt accrued interest is paid, and this year’s two mill relief tax is paid, the aggregate for all purposes will be: For the rural districts City of Pittsburgh Allegheny city It thus appears that for next year oar taxes will be about double the average in« come or rent estate, and after which near ly equal to it. Except in a few very favor able localities, the net income yielded from real estate dees not average over six per cent, on the valua ion. Four per cent , I am told, is nearer the mart. Whereas next year it will require, in tho rural dis tricts, over six par cont; in the city of Pittsburgh over eleven per cent.; aod in Allegheny City over nine per cent. It is a sad picture to contemplate, and has already produced its legitimate effects ir dJpresrihg the markot value of real estate In every part of the county; and if no remedy is found, it must soon also depress business, of all kinds JNo business, or property invested in business, can stand suoh exactions and compete with similar business in neighboring counties where no such exactions are made. Capital will be withdrawn from the infected district and invested elsewhere, and the languishing prosperity of Pittsburgh come to an end ” The Judge goes on to Bay that we are clearly liable for all these taxes,and quotes the deqision of Judge Woodward, some two .years since, in support of that view After some remarks cn compromise which he individually preferred, although he was of opinion it was not for the Court, but the Grand Jury, to recommend it, the Judge says: **l would say, however, that no time is to bo lost. Wo must act. The Bherff or U. S Marshall holds the respeo. tive treasuries. Ar,d poiiios he,‘ding cou pons of bonds that may turn out wholly invalid, or on which tnrrty par cent msv not be legally recoverable, are receiving payment in full. If one is to be paid in full, all should be, and no one deserves payment sooner than a nether. I would, thereloro. have a compromise if we can and at once. Otherwise a proceeding to stop the com;cued bringing of suits, and accomplish a U.ia. adjustment, which might still eventuate in en amicable ar ratgen-.e-.'t. Whatever course you may thick proper to r-commend to bring about 1 some resu-I k, t ,l matter, whether vou i act u; on y our o .v:; Ic.; . ne.bility in eug» . gesting terms cl cornp,-n, ur advise the Commis ioners to ad. p. some line of ac tion, or call together the citizens to con sult, there is no use in wasting time in de lays, or in vain regrets, or crimination,or denunciations. Let tho people accept the facts of the nature and extent of their llei. birtty as It Is found to exist, and provide & remedy accordingly.” He then comments upon tho origin of this debt and the impossibility of escaping from it; also the effect on our properey and says; *Suoh Is the effect of holding snoh debt, to be estimated and collected as rates and | ‘ j®* k* r dther tax purposes are collected; and here the necessity for prompt action, to obtain the best termß that may be h-.d, or redeem or liability to its minimum; and there is no occasion for reflections against the bondholder. It is not his fault that we are in such predicament; and it is natural and to be expected that he will take the most be can get by his security, and use all the remedies which favorable log station has placed at his disposal. And we have no occasion to despond We should be thankful that our railroad debt is not twice as much as it is. It might as well, perhaps, have been the one as the other. There was no reason for its being so little except the modesty and forbear | ance of the diflfereat railroad companies and by a judicious compromise, or com! pulsory adjustment, its present amount may be greatly reduced, so as to leave it possible to pay it, and still have some in. come from our property left. If W e get this matter once rightly adjusted, and are not overwhelmed with other public bur. dens, we might, by inaugurating a system or economy and retrenchment and reform in our public expenditures, again restore our finances to & healthy condition. Then follows a suggestion for settling the amount of liability: “As the proceed, mg necessary to apply this remedy would probably be by bill in the Supreme Court making the bondholders and railroad company, Jand oily or county, parties, asd enjoining a suspension of all other suits, elsewhe-e, and a stay of proceedings 10 lo'T l * 10181 or full nominal amount until the real amount is settled and ascer. “lined, the saving in the matter of costs alone would be immense. As it stands now every bondholder brings his separate suit on his particular coupons—and as in such suit the remedy indicated above can hardl y be applied, and whether or not, suits and costs are accumulated to an oppressive ex lent” He then refers to “numerous small leaks in the public purse,” which he says mieht be stopped and in conclusion enjoins them to scrutinize care'ully the county ac. counts and ascertain the truth of the rumor that the Commissioners have drawn funds from the T.easurv to pay their fines, and oavo not liquidated them. The jail cslonder for the present term of court is exceedingly light. The names and their oflenc<s, are as fol. I Frujj.’;to3. r-P'UfHt; !

In other words, the guns are not of sufficientcalibre to destroy the iron shield of said ships, and of others like them. It is a matter of doubt Whether the celebrated eleven inch gun of Captain Dahlgren would effect such an object, even if rifled, and while it is thought that the fifteen.inch Hodman gun, (throwing a four hundred pound ball,) might, if pu Un position, it is staled that no apparatus has yet been devised for properly mounting and working it. There are two of this class of ordnance at Fortress Monroe If then a war with England is to be predpb .ated upon us, it will become necessary at once to obstruct the channels to the har bors ol the country.” Mah Killed at a Saw Mill A dis< treßsing and fatal accident occurred at the baw-mill of miller, .Nickel, & Cu„ Port rerry, on Saturday about noon.

I UTEST BY TELEGRAPH Last Night's News np to Two O’elock, , Interesting from .Missouri, Otterville, Mo , December 23-—Part of the prisoners captured by Gen. Pope at Black Water last Tuesday, passed down last night on a Epecial train. Among those sent down are Colonel Magoffin, brother of Governor Magoffin, of Ken tacky, Colonel Robinson, who bad com mand of the rebel force at JBlack Water, and who was in the battles of New Springe) Wilson’s Creek and Lexington, Colonel Alexander, who says that he fought in all the battles, Lieutenant Colonel Robinson, Major Harris, Doctor Smith, one o’ the wealthiest men and largest slave holders in Missouri, who has done everything in his power to aid and corns fort the enemy. McKown, Sheriff of Bon ton county, who, it is said, by misrepre* eentation gained admittance into one of our camps, made a diagram of it and left, and that night tho rebels made an attack and killed 1G or 17 of our men Dr. Moore, of Syracuse and many others who have gained notoriety by their zeal and labors in the secession army. Many of the prisoners wore a kind of um.orm and have served with Price for several months. They all say that they have been well treated by the Pederals and seem to think that they will Boon be re leased by Price. The wagons, horses and mules were turned over to the Quarters master at Sedsiia. The troops are again in possession at Lamino. We wore absent on this expedi tion jußt five days. In this time we ma.oh. ed about 100 miles in a direct line from the place, and scoured the country through which we passed for a d’Btance of 40 or 50 mUf6 on each side of Ihe route—took about 1.500 prisoners, 1,000 horses and mules, 1,000 st“nd of arrr.b, 100 wagons and quan ta's of stores, supplies and clothing.
