    opTb o " Star of the North " published at
!oom3 burg, Columbia County, comes to the
very sensible conclusions in regard
p the proposed change in this Judicial Dis
' Hut is tlic proposed in this instance,
, o per one ? Shall that rather undefined
J much misunderstood right, of apportioning
BD State, enjoyed by the Legislature, be ex
t3e;.'e,j fyr this purpose, in this instance ?
rather, should not the people to whom Judge
\V iuiot has for some time past dispensed jus
be allowed a voice in the matter? Is
IVdoctrine of "squatter sovereignty," so
|i 3S itcan be applied to the districts in
& which a State may be divided for muni-
Val purposes, to be ignored for an ob-
I paltry ( Shall the great party whose
Last it has always been to stand by the will
... ,jj e people constitutionally expressed, now
:■ t it should be sated with its triumphs of
r th and right, indulge in the insignificant
ttoairh perhaps palatable dessert of driving a
of the Common Pleas from the bench,
Hen his people wish hira to occupy it ? Shall
! Democracy of Pennsylvania, like the diseas
j"; nv! ]]pli who gratifies her desires at the ex-
L,je of her reputation, embrace retry occasion
doing itself a good turn ? We trow not.—
[here are other and better reasons for the rc-
E ral of Pavid Wilmot, thau that he makes
critical speeches. That the perverts the euils
■.'justice by favoring his political opponents
r t must very much doubt ; for his people
iou!J soon see it ; and the sentiment of self
nervation would drive them to the side of
i-ht. Xo man can know of a judicial deter
- aatioa having been brought about in his fa
[or hv virtue of his position as a partizan,
itiwut resolving instinctively that his judge
ii dangerous one. As soou as Judge Wii
cot'speople see t.iis.they will act ; iu the mean
juelet us mind our own business.

All Important Bill.
Mr NILL, the talented member from Frauk
lin, read in his place to-day a very important
bill, entitled " An act relating to the collec
tion of taxes in the several counties of the
State." Tl>e first section provides that the
Commissioners of every county shall canse
their clerk to make out the tax duplicates im
mediately after the assessments are made, cer
tify the same, and hand them over to the Coun
ty Treasurer.
The second section makes it the duty of
snch County Treasurer, within thirty days af
ter such receipt of duplicates, to give at" least
thirty days notice in one or more weekly news
papers, stating that he will attend at least two
days in each township and borough, previous
to the first day of August in each year, for the
purpose ot receiving the taxes due by each
person residing in said township ; if snch per
son pay the taxes before the first day of Au
gust, he shall be entitled to a deduction of
five per cent, on the amount thereof.
The third section provides that in case of
the taxes remaining unpaid for a period of
thirty days after the first day of August, the
Treasurer shall issue his warrant to the con
stable of the township or borough, authorizing
and requiring him to collect such back-stand
ing taxes within ten days after he has made
demand for the same ; if the person refuses
to pay his taxes, said constable may seize and
sell his goods for the taxes clue, and to pay
all cost o f such proceeding.
The other sections prescribe various penal
ties for the non-performance of the respective
duties by the Treasurer and constables, all of
which will be noticed hereafter, in case the
bill should pass and become a law.
Mr. XII.L informs us that the bill proposed
to be extended to all the counties in the State,
is already in operation in the county of Frank
lin, and has given full satisfactiou to the tax
payers of that county.
We consider this one of the most important
bills of the session, as it changes the entire
mode of collecting taxes all over the State.—
It will abolish all the tax-collectors, and we
hope it may be carefully considered before it
is passed into a law.— llarrisbnrg Teltgraph.
