IIcuco now measures of governmental policy hro constantly necessary, nnd tho party that is Incapablo of bringing them forward, to adjust them to tho public wants, and to adapt Itself to tho public necessities, Is Incompetent to tbo successful ilovtl opement and management of our public nti'iilrs. Wo regret to say It, but tho truth is there, Is a little too much conservatism amongst our Democratic Legislators, Stnto nnd federal, Just now. They want a llttlo moro of tho breath of life breathed Into tbcm, or a doso of politi cal salts gorglcd down them to work off tholr slovenly Inaction. To opposo everything and propose nothing, Is n rotten, worthless, dctestablo platform, nnd ono that novcr can recclvo much of public sympathy or any of public ro apect. Federalism and Whlggcry both died mainly of Conservatism, and all parties of ono Idea that havo arisen havo gono down because, they bad but ono idea. Our healthy American pub lic demands that which Is efficient, de cisive, vigorous and progressive. In past times this was tho standard of De mocracy nnd tho party must como up to that standard again if it would be successful or deserve success. Let our Legislators therefore show themselves equal to tho occasion nud they can com mand success, but as sure as thoy con tinue., to draggle at tho tall of conserva tism thoy are doomed.

Will the; people longer luwuu uuu uinun i iwwwnnti For a few years past the schoolmns. lers havo been talking about laws to compel pcoplo to send their children regularly to school, but this V(as looked upon rather as a means of calling atten tion to tho Importance of voluntarily compclllng.reguIar attendance. Recent ly, howovcr, the Radicals of the eastern states, who dlctatotthe policy of tho Badlcal party, havo embraced this new form of tyranny uud will no doubt ptjsh It to adoption, If that party h contin ued in power. Tho substance is that tho domestic control of children is to bo taken out of tho hands of parents and'transferred to tho Federal Govern ment to be taken from parents and mrnucuover 10 J' enteral riu-ruii appoint ees, who aro to inspect our chlldren,nnd order them off to school.to tho control of any scalawag who may at the time have charge of tho neighborhood school I No matter that tho teacher may be cruel or otherwise unfit, a personal .enemy, ono you may despise, a fool or a scoun drel, or thafyou may deem your child for any reason unfit, to go, or want to retain it at homo for cause. satisfactory to yourself, the petty Federal officehol der will say go, and you must submit to tho dictation or suffer tho penalty.

On Friday of last week Mr Hucka- t,EW from tho Senate Committee on Constitutional Reform reported n bill to tho Benato which provides for a Con vention to amend tho Constitution of tho Stnto. It Is In marked contrast to tho bills which havo been proposed In both Houses by Radical members, and If enacted Into a law will Bccure n fair convention and a fair decision by tho pcoplo upon tho amendments Which tho Convention shall propose In tho first placo by tho arrangement which lsmndoitilhoblllfor delegates at largo and for district delegates, tho Convention will bo constituted, pretty certainly, of an equal number of mora herefrom each party, whlloopportunlty Is nflbrded for tho choice of good men. There aro to bo 32 delegates at largo and each voter of tho Stato Is to voto for no moro than 10. This application of tho limited voto (after tho oxaraploof Now York) will secure 10 to each party. Then district delegates aro to be chosen upon tho plan of tho frco voto (oxcopt In Al legheny and Luzerne) bo that' all tho pcoplo shall bo fully and Justly repre sented. In Allegheny and Luzcrno tho limited. voto Is applied so as to secure tho samo object. Tho number or tils trlct dolcgatcs Is to bo 103 and tho Stato is divided into convenient districts for tho purposo of selecting them. Ono Important featuro of tho bill is tho provision that one-thlrdof tho mem bers may requlro tho separate submis sion to tho peoplo for their adoption or rejection of any amendment proposed by tho Convention. This will afford tho pcoplo full opportunity to discrim inate between good and bad amend ments and to accept only thoso they shall fully approve. Tho compensation of members of tho Convention is fixed at $500, and tho duration of tho Convention Is not to ex ceed 100 days of actual session. Tho provision to voto upon tho ques tion whether a Convention shall bo cal led, at tho samo timo the delegates aro elected, Is a very unnecessary complica tion, which will bo very likely to lead to mischief. In fact tho proposition would bo better suited to a Juvcnllo de bating society than to grave legislators. It Is tho amendments that nro wanted, and it Is tho business of tho Legislature to havo theso submitted to n votoof tho peoplo. If they approve they will adopt them and If they disapprove they will reject. That Is tho only decision of tho peoplo that can bo effective on tho subject. Relief from Taxation. A gross tibuso Is being carried on by tho Legis lature In roleuslng Incorporated Ceruo tcrles and Churches from taxation. The former are generally money making af fairs, nnd therefore ought to bear their share of taxation. Thoso of tho hitter that apply for relief from taxation, are not tho humblo churches of poor congre gations but wealthy establishments which estimate their valuo by thous ands and millions. Tho release of these of course transfers tho taxes from them toother objects of taxation. In refer Ing to this subject tho Philadelphia Age says: "Proparty fo tho amount of fifty million dollars has been withdrawn from taxation In this city by tho Legis lature, and yet tho work goes on, In stead of taxing personal property, tho above leak should bo stopped. Thcro is no moro reason why land used for cemetery purposes should bo exempt from taxation, than land sold and held for building uses." A Constitutional amendment taking all power from tho Legislature to ex empt property from tho operation of laws imposing taxes, is greatly needed. If tho exemption was applied to poor Churches and Cemeteries ntonc,lt might bo well enough, but It is not these that mako tho application or receivo tho benefit. It Is tho wealthy ones, and tho larger their real valuation tho moro vc hement they become. In demanding re lease. Convention ltclegntK. Wo observo tho Inquiry mndo In sev eral papers why Allegheny and Luzomo are subjected to n different rule of elec tion In Mr. HuckaIiKW'h Convention bill. Onorrnon Is that theso counties hnvo respectively seven and llvo dele gates, and theso numbers do not divide readily inlu fractions. Perhaps tho controlling reason Is that It Is a princi pal purposo of tho bill that each politi cal party shall hnvo Just one-half tho delegates In tho Conveiilli.n. ' To ac complish this with romp? ratlvo ccrtnln ty It Is nccusnry that Allegheny bo divided so ns to olect 1 Republicans nnd a Democrats, nnd Luzcrno .1 Democrats nud 2 Republicans. Thoso editors who ltnnglno nn unworthy purpose do great Injustice to tho author of tho bill. The t'onl .Miners. Tho public generally wcro glad to learn that tho Coal Minors had ngrccd to go to work Inst week. They wore to a great extent In straightened circum stances, nnd mnny of them In nctunl want. Hut nt this Juncture tho Rail road companies raised tho freight so high that tho operators can not send their coal to market, and consequently but llttlo mining cm bo done. Wo agreo with tho Laucastcr Intelligencer that "tho Legislature should take prompt action In this matter. A regu lar rato of charges for carrying coal should be Uxed by law, and so fixed that tho law cannot bo evaded. Tho Interests of producers nnd consumers nllko demand such protection from tho State." C'oiiipllmeiitnrj- Vole. It Is to bo hoped tho Democratic State Convention nt lis next meeting will do nwny with tho folly of " complimentary votes." Tho thing has grown Into an ovil, that calls loudly for reform. Con ventions havo been accustomed to give " complimentary votes" to Tom, Dick and Harry, ns a preliminary to earnest business. As a sort of skirmish prac tice to get tho lay of tho land nnd to enable tho rent contestants to feel ench other's weak places, It has been tolor oted heretofore, but tho llttlo crcn, tures who onco got n tasto of such 'complimentary votes" nro suro to turn up on overy occasion thereafter, and finally becomo clamorous and an noying In asserting tholr claims to real nominations. They seem to think that certain number of " compllmonta- rles " ought surely to bring nbout tho real thing. To get rid of theso pests, tho Convention should stop tho prac tice of " complimentary " voting, nnd mako It clear that oneo being before n convention establishes no claim to n nomination nt any timo thereafter. Pottscitle Standard. If thcro is a class of crawlers on tho face of tho earth who abovo (or below) all others descrva hearty contempt, it is tho spoonies who hang nbout con ven Hons coaxing for "complimentary" votes, or who persistently annoy editors for puffs. Wo admit wo havo never been troubled much by them, as wo havo a short hand mode of disposing of them. But tho act of a delegnto who casts n "complimentary" voto Is scarce ly less contemptiblo than it Is to seek It. Let tho press denounco both, nud bo careful to avoid tho practice them selves, and between tho two n reform may bo effected. When onco under stood by tho titmouses that they must look to somo other i-ourco for notoriety they will ccoso to bo troublesome.

After all the parades on tho subject by tho sensation papers, it appears that tho Tennessee arrived safely nt San Domingo without accident or unusual delay. The fuss nbout her was puro Invention, gotten up expressly to mako n demand for sensation papers. Tho officials at Washington nil tho timo maintained that there was not tho least cnuso for alarm.

Wo learn from Harrlsburg that two Important powers in tho Stato have ta ken a determined stand against calling a Convention to propose Constitutional amendments. Ono of theso Is tho Rail road Interest, which fears that Its gen eral powers and Immunities may bo curbed, and the Stato Treasury removed from Its grasp. Tho other Is tho gang ol vultures who annually gorgo upon Legislative corruption. These Interests are working with energy, not to mush in direct opposition, which would bo futile, but In creating discord and by getting up impracticable bills.

This was n caso submitted to tho Court for decision. Tho Court delivered tho following opinion, lo wit: Uv tho act of 22d April 1810. Purdon's uigest vol pi ii'.j, annuities, over iwo iiutiurca dollars, nro mntio name to as sessment and taxation, nnd all property real or personal, (not tnxcit minor ox Istlnc laws) held, owned, iisedor Invest ed by any porson, In trust, for tho use, benetlt and ndvantneoof anv other nor- son, Is also mado liablo to a tax of three liilllsupon every dollar of tho valuation thereof. If tho bequest for tho benefit of Isaac Fowler is an annuity within tho mean ing of tills net, being under two hundred uouars, men it is not tnxamc. An annuity Is defined to bo a yearly 'I payment of n certain sum of money "granted to another In feo, for llfoor " lor years, charging tho person of tho " grantor only. Co. Lltt, 1 U, 0, 1 Win. " Jixrs. 722, 2 Ulk. Com. 10." This bequest Is not of n certain sum neither Is It a chargo upon tho person of tho grantor, nor upon any devise under tho will of tho testator. In both theso essentials it falls to come within tho definition of nn annuity. In tho first place, tho fund Itself, out of which or from tho Interest of which tho yearly payment was directed to bo mado, was uncertain nod could not bo ascertained until tho estate was settled; and in tho next place, tho legatee was entitled not to n certain amount nor to tho interest on u certain sum, but toalthat might bo received from tho investment of tho share of tho cstnto bequeathed to the executors in trust for tlio son. Tho in terest, whatever it might amount to, wns given to tho son for life, and the principal was given over nt his death. This principal amounted to $2,800, which at 0 per cent, interest produced a lc.s sum than $200, but invested In 7 3-10 TJ. bonus it amounts to more than that sum. It is truo tbat when a testator directs tho Interest upon a certain sum to bo paid uunuauy to a legatee, it is to be understood that tho interest nt tho letral rate is to bo paid. But when a fund, as in this caso, Is placed In the nanus or a trustco who is to nay tho In terest to ono person for life, nnd the irincipal over nt ins ucain, all ol tlio nterest received Is to bo paid to tho person cntiucti to mo interest,. in ineso rcsnccta trio cao is material. ly different from that of Berks county vs. joncs-j. ii. in. ncrc ino sum civ- en was fixed, to wit: tho Interest on S20U0 annually, liy ncccpllnir tlio t o- viso of tho land, tho dovlseo becamo liable to pay tho legacy or annuity. Tho person to whom tho annuity was L'iven had no Interest in tlio land nor any other fund which produced Interest, under an circumstances no was to re ceivo ills 3120 annually, no moro and no less., isow, in an respects ma giu to Isaac Fowler by tho will of his father, was different from that In tho caso Just cited. It Is similar, In fact almost Identical, with the bequest In Spangler V:". York county, 1 Harris 322. In which It Is c early sliown in inooninion deliv ered by Uell J. that when n testator di rects n portion oi ins esiaio 10 no vcsiou in n Mint!, too interest oi wnicu is to do paid to it legnteo thereof for life, and tho fund ut death to bo distributed among Ills children, that tho fund is taxauio lor muio ana county purposes. It was thcro held that by n bequest such as this n technical trust Is created strictly within thocognlzaucoof it court of equity, and which may bo enforced, on tho application of tho cestui que trust under our statutes, wcro uio luntt in danger from tho misconduct of tho trustco or tlio iipprciicuuett i.iiiuru oi tho security, our courts would iiiterfero at tlio distance of tho eettul que trust, nnd should the principal sum bo event ually lost wiinout ueiuuii oi too execu tor, who for this purposo is n trustee, (Wncatley vs. uaugor, 7 uarr hsj) no would not be llablo to mako good thu amount. An annuity aopenus upon no contin gencies It Is payable at all ovonts out of thocstato of the grantor. But hero tho luuil passes out ot tuo estate 10 Isaac for life ami to ins lieirs a( ins death. Tho will upon this subject H ns fol lows: "I leave In tho hands of my " executors for tho uso of my son Isaac " Fowler ono equal sharo of my estate " to bo put in saw nanus iy my exeeu " tors, ho the said Isaac Fowler recelv " lug tuo yearly interest ior ino support 'or ntmsell during ino. nnu mo priuct Mini to bo Faultily divided among Ids " liolrs at his decease." Tho fund so given Is subject to tax' within tho worus oi mo statuto, ns wen ns within Its spirit and moaning. It H held nnd wed or InvestedUi trust for the uso, benclit and advantago or Isaac Fowler during his life. It was upon this grouud that tho fund was held lia ble to taxation, unu not tieeuusu tnu in terest on tho fund amounted to over :200. When an annuity Is taxable. It Is the amount of it only that can bo taxed. Tho anuultant is not llablo for a tax upon me, mnu wnicu prouueus mu annu ity. Tho distinction which I havo mado between tilts' caso and that of Berks count v vs. Jones. Is recognized In tbn nnlnlon of tho learned President Judgo when ho speaks of tho caso of tsprangicr vs. xoru county unu says in that caso " tho fund was to bo Invested for tho uso of tho widow."
