8 AN IMPORTANT SUIT. Constitutionality of the lorom About to no Contested. la tne Circuit Court of 8t. Louis county, Mo., onel William H. Piichartt baa commenced a it against Captain Bart Able, United States Collector, for the amount ot his income tax, (iosed upon his profit for the year 1866. The suit involves the broad question of the MBStitntionality of the income tax, and as such tMH be viewed with interest throughout the Union. If we mistake not, it Is the first instance in which the constitutionality of the tax has keen contested, although it is well known that some of the most diHtinguished Jurists in the ountry have questioned the authority of Con gress to lay the tax. We understand that the T?1H be transferred from tbe Circuit Court f the county t Ue United States District Court without delay. The following eitract from tbe plaintiff's pctl Won will show the grounds on which be bases as proceedings: Plaintiff fnrthar IkIvk tlmt Hftld tax SO levied OPOn fcls Income, rains, and profit, for the year tw6 Is a tired tax. and a such It Is levied In violation of tbe Constitution of tbe United Htatee, and particularly 'lolatlon 01 the third paragraph of section one w Article one, and ol the fourth paragraph or tne ninin erllnn nt ftftlri Artlr-I. That turM levied UDOD the Income, gains, and profits ot Individuals by the act of Conferees under which defendant assumes to act. ana under which defendant baa assumed to demand and forcibly to collect the laid tax from plaiutlir, have ever Been apportioned among tbe several btatea In cluded wlihlu tbe Union, according to tbelr reiipecllve numbers, nor bave tbey been levied In proportion to tbe census and enumeration of Inhabitants as re quired In said Constitution: and the tax aforesaid Messed against plaintiff, aud for tbe payment whereof said levy was made, is Illegal and void. Thai snld tax being tbns unconstitutional, Illegal, and void, and tbe payment or the same having been obtained from plaintiff by durers and seizure and dmtralnt of ale protlta, and defendant having no rlxht to de mand the same, plaintiff alleges that delendnnt is Indebted to him In the said Bum so Illegally taken from the plaintiff as aforesaid, so levied upon the plalutlffs Income, gains, and prollts for the year ISM, amounting to l- 63, and the proportional pen alty assessed thereon and the corns of sucli war rant, (mounting to Is 6S. amounting in the aggregate to tbe sum or 11713, and that the Hald suui is now due and owing to tbe plaintiff by aefendani, nnd lor vrblcb nm, with Interest and costs of suit, plaintiff aaks Judgment.

Pelrsol, Democratic; candidate for CHy Treasurer, to a member of the U. B. Senate: Fbii.adei.fbia, June 23, 1802. BIr: I take the libertv of addresalDK you upon the subject of tbe. proposed location of tbe United States Navyardat League Island. I bave been Informed, and I believe. League island has been wholly reclaimed troin tne river Delaware, and is only prevented from overflow by large banks of stone and earth. It la snnounded, except upon one side, by a marsh, and lor this cause, as well as from Insalubrity, It bas been unimproved and unoccupied, except as pasture land, at a moderate rent, since lta reclamation. Tbe fust land la from six to eigbt feet below bigh-water mark at all points, and -would cost over a million dollars to level aud fit for use as mucb as will be required for the large purposes projected. If the object Is to erect foundries, tbe spongy- natwre of the soil would make It ImDossible to get a proper foundation for tbe buildings except at a great cost, nor could a well of sufficient, sieptn oe uug lor large castings, it coma not cost less than two or tbree million dollars In bip-bouses, dry-docks, and other slruolures now in the old yard, which would bave to be abandoned. 27iu. the gift of the Inland would be ttfar, ana still nearer if $ks,uw,uw were auaca to the ait towards flUinrj it for use. Most of the Md carnenters employed In the yard now reside in Kensington, nearly eight miles dis tant from tne island, wuere iiiey wouiu con tinue, as Government work is not suttioiently regular or remunerative to Induce a permanent removal. ' Tbe Island Is at least five miles from the supply stores of the city. Tue approaches are as low as the Island itself, and unfit for bulldlnn nnrnoses. and far distant from hydrants, gas, Improved streets, police and rail roads. 77ie nlaee hit onlu to be visited and seen to de monstrate its unfitness, and I would humbly suggest a visit by a committee of Congress for thA nnrnnsa. hoforo so treat an outlay Is In curred or promised, where performance is im possible. There are minor objections, wnion i will not nrira. I am as earnest as any mua- rtelnblan In the desire of the location of a first- class yard, but It Is my duty, Impelled by the ante feelings which you have, to state to you, as a publio man. It will cost at leastour million nniinrm in tit. t .em 17 lie Inland for the least elti- eleucv as com Dared with the present yard. If you add foundries, etc., that will be an addi tional expense, which 1 will not undertake to Mil mate. The present yard may be extended for about two hundred ana tifty iriousana aouars, ana jtwimb all the ground necessary nou) ana nereajier -wun ml tlixturbance or delay.
