ment of taxes.
The Committee of Highways have already re
duced tho amount asked for by tho department
!UO,000. The Committee on Gas-works have re
duced tho amount asked for over 00,000. The bill
for public schools has been largely reduced, and
the other bills will undoubtedly be reduced more or
less. It Is calculated that the saving in the reduc
tion from twelve to nine per cent, in tho discount
will save over $100,000, so that it can be safely calcu
lated that if the loans are made which should be
mude there will be a margin at a tax rate of Slat) of ,
over a million of dollars.

The session of the Pennsylvania Anti-Slavery
Society was resumed yesterday atternoon. Alter
a lew remarks jrom Mrs. Molt, Mrs. Grew, and
Mr. Powell of the An'i-Siawry standard,
Wendell Phillips was called on lor u few
remarks, and he spoko subs'.autially as follows:
There was one thing which had espe
cially distinguished tue negro question,
and that was its simple, specide cha
racter. We have been eimp!y a tocicty tor
the abolition of negro slavery. We have dog
gedly hinged all our movements on one simple
idea. Now we are just ueaiing the port: the
harbor is in 6lpnt; it bas not been a poor
voj ape, nor was the labor light. Ours was the
Christian test ot the age. Futy years hence our
history will be made of the quarrel between the
races, und our romance will consist of the pic-iuiet-que
clement ot that quarrel. It this society
had been spread Into general Christianity, we
would be now where we were in '33. The Instinct
of the opposition saw exactly the strength of
anti-slavcrj its one idea. We shall never
entirely get rid in our day of social prejudice,
but we cuti clean the orpauic luw. A r ation cau
make a step thut cannot be recovered. The
speaker's criticism ot Andrew Johnson was, not
that he has lost the country four years, but that
we shall never stand again wheru we did in
1805. The journals now give us all the depth of
water we require persistent etiort will oo the
work. And yet the miracle of a nation's regene
ration may be taken trom u. We have been
chcand In so many tbiuns impeachment for in
stancethat it is impossible to say. but he had
faith faith held for inauy weary year?, aud not
now to be relinquished. It Grant gives us a safe,
rctpectable Cabinet, merely It is pissible that
the country may drift back into the spirit of
the times before the Kebellion. We must not
expect any prompt humanity from Grant;
Lu is simply a soldier, though he may be an
honest one. What we tnieht have got was a
man who would have been to the whole country
what butler was to New Orleaus. Wade was
that man, but Senators knew what he would do
if elected, and were alraid of him. The Presi
dent, when he bought Hose, wasted his monev.
The speaker continued his criticism of General
Grant and other public men at some length, and
with great severity. The question in the war
was, which shall own this belt of continent,
Calhoun or Massachusetts ? 100,000 graves have
answered. We have lought the battle, though
only half awake. The trouble now Is that Grant
is not an abolitionist. Our anti-Blavery tue
must last till that time when the lav of the
country is cleaned. The reticence of Grant a a
Foidicr was proper, aa a Presidential candidate
it was disloyal. God has given us the hour and
the text; one more effort and we shall berable to
redeem the original pledge of the Anti-Sluvery
Society, to make a black man and a white mun
equal lielore the law.
The Treasurer's report was then read, by
which it appeated the amount in the treasury
was $20-15, and that dor a' Ions received during
tie year amouutcJ lo $200. The report wa
accepted.

ki r lo 111 Kriorl ul the t iuuuce Com
mittee ol Council.
Office of tjie City Treasurer, Philadelphia,
Dec. t), 1808. To ibe Select and Common Council.-'.
Gentlemen: In a report to your honor
able bodies, submitted by the Committee on
finance on Thursday last, censure is cast on me
as the City Treasurer, "for reserving the re
ceipts liom taxes tor 1B(J8 to pay the interest
due January 1, lHti'J, instead ot providing for
the same by a temporary loan, as has been the
course bcTetolore pursued by previous City
Treasurers."
As this could ocly have Decn written under
a misapprnei,8iou of the law by which the
City Triustrcr is j;overneJ, permit me to c:ilt
jour atuntiou to it, as it is found in '-An ordi
nance to authorize a loan to pay claims against
and to definy expnn-cs ot the corporation,"
apP'OM'd Leee ruber 11, 1S5S.
Tne third secnou reads, "The faith of the city
of Philadelphia Is hereby pledged to her credi
tors, thai a tax for the year I16U shall be levied
on the rei.l estate within the bounds of ihe eanue,
valuta according to the assessment thereof in
th year le55, at the rate ot seven and a halt
mills on the dollar, to be designated as a 'Lon
tax.' and annually thereafter that a sufficient
tux, unucr the like designation, in eicti and
eu-ry year on the said teal estate, accordiu to
die the n assessed value thereof, bhail likewise
be levied, lor the purpose ot paying the interest,
end wuhiu thirty jeurs trom tho date thereol
the piiiiclpal,of the public debt ot the city,
and to continue until tho principal of the
said debt shall be extinguished, and no
longer; and the said tat - shall cover and
tccuie all the appropriations made in the
seveiul ordinances existing at the time of said
levy, creating Kinking fuuds lor the redemption
of all loans, an well as cover and pay the
interetl on said loans. Said tax shall be in
cluded as an item under a separate head in the
eDtire city and county lax, to b levied in each
jenr as aforesaid, and the Receiver of Taxes, at
the tuxes lor each year are collected aud re
eeived by him, shall hand over to the City
Treasurer, together with the niouey received
by the taid heceivrr, a statement of the amount
of loan tax. a aloiesaid, iuctuded in everv such
pament to the Treasurer, aud the said Trea
surer shall forthwith pa?n such proportionate
amount to a separate account, to 03 called tho
City iH-bt Account,' and the monev included
in the mid account shall cot be applied, under
any pretense, to the payment ot auy claluj, or to
any purpose or object other than the interest,
nnd after that is discharged the prlucioal, of the
public debt of the city, as heiembuiore set
ti rth; BLd any encroachment on the said fund
lor anv other purpose or object than as a ore
taid thall be a miudemeanor in otllce on tho
part ol said Treasurer."
TblB section wa designed to b3 and is a
peruuneut pledge by the city tnat an adcquv.e
provision shall bo made wbhh shall be anplie 1
only inr the n polar n iyrneut of the iutcre.i.
The pledge rau neither be set Hslde nor repealed.
It li binding cn the Councils, and under trie
penalty of a misdemeanor must be complied
with by the City Treasurer. It is a contract lo
which there are two parties, the city and tho
loan-holders. If violated by the Councils, it
can be enforced by the judiciary. If dig regarded
by the City Treasurer, he must suffer the
penally. The best interests of the city being
depeiioeiit on its scrupulous observance, I am
very sure that jou will allow no impression to
exist tl a, either on vour own pnrt or that of
any city ollicial, there Is a desitp to evad or iu
the f liehte.-t degree to Impair, a la w which 19 so
eminently ytbe and lust. To this law, nior"
than to any other cause, is to be attributed the
hieh credit which the city ot Philadelphia now
enjojs. The scrupulous care be.-towed on the
Biuking funds, the adequate orovisiou mude
lor the prompt payment of the Interest, im
i ait confidence to th? lenders of money, and
make the loans of the city a tavoruo invest
ment. Your honorable bodies will fully appreciate
the importance of this subject, au 1 particularly
tit this mouicnt, wheu large loans are cooteni
platid which cannot be neeotiat"d if tho views
so ii't-onsidera't ly expressed by the Committee
on Finance are allowtd to pass unnoticed.
To remove the lalsc impressions they may
have created, and protect the credit of tiie city
lr m their consequences, as will at myself from
unjust aspersions, 1 have been induce I to ad
dress jour houorable bodies, aud to express, as
1 have hi reiu done, most unequivocally that the
law, both b gaily and morally, is binding on the
City Councils and the City Traurer.
If, however, there should exist anv doubt on
this point on the part of your houorable bodies,
I respectfully request that it be submitted to
the City Solicitor lor his opinion.
Very ie?nectfully, your obedient servant,
JoBEru N. Peibboi., City Treasurer.
