The New York Mail Steamship Company

The Ineame Tax Case at flaCala.
BUFFALO, N. Y.. April 19.—1 n the Reve
nue case decided yesterday by Judge Smal
ley, it appears that Mr. Brown was sum
moned before the Aasessor of the Thirtieth
Districtin July, 1865, and required to testify
in regard to the income returns made by
him in 1862 and 1863, and the special income
tax of 1864.
The Assessor claimed that Mr. Brown
was owner of $120,000 in railway bonds at
the time stated,while he returned an income
of only $15,000. Brown stated that he had
sold the bonds, but refused . to inform the
Assessor to whom he had sold them. He
was brought up on an attachment before
the Judge, who was to decide whether be
was bound to give the information - de
manded.
After a full argument by counsel. Judge
Smalley decided that the 14th section of the
Revenue law was norretroactive in its effect;
that the assessor having returned his list
of assessments to the collector, has 11.3
power to institute a fresh inquiry or
compel the production of books and
papers.
Ha says there should be some limit of
time beyoud which this inquisitorial power
of the Assessor to examine into private bu
siness transactions of every person should
not be exercised. It follows that the Asses
sor had,no authority to call Brown before
him when he did, and that Brown was
under no obligation to answer any question
put to him.
Judge Smalley holds further, that if
fraudulent returns were made, the remedy
is by indictment imderithe fifteenth:section,
or for perjury, under the forty-second sec
tion of the Revenue act. Mr. Brown wa4
ordered to be discharged.
HOARDING COM-A woman died in
Chester county, Pa.,recently, leaving be
hind her eight hundred and twenty-nine
dollars in coin—nearly( all of it in silver
half-dollars, the rest in gold. It was found
in two parcels after death, locked up in her
bureau. She was a single woman, quite
penurious in her habits, and lived entirely
alone on a small lot inherited from her
mother. The money was taken to West
Chester last week and sold for the benefit or
her estate at the current market rates. Thie
money was the accumulation of thirty or*
forty years, and it is noteworthy that not a
single coin was counterfeit. There were als >
about 150 pennies—some of them perhap
will be interesting to the curious. Living
alone as she did, unprotected, adjacent to a
woods, and frequently absent from home,
her humble cabin never tempted to violenco
or outlawry. She ied at the house of a rela
tive, where she was taken sick while on a
visit, her treasure having had no one to
guard it. She made no disclosure of the
money, and it was only on an examination
of her effects it was found.
THREE HUNDRED AND FORTY Indiana, Of
the Yellow Medicine tribe of Sioux, the
remnant of Little Crow's band, who com
mitted the massacre in Minnesota in 1862,
and were taken prisoners by Gov. Marshall.
have been sent up the•l‘lissouri river, to be
settled ins portion of one of the Territories,
where they will be watched and kept ont of
mischief. One of them boasts that he killed
and scalped a doen white women. Thirty
nine of the ringleaders of the massacre were
tried and hung, but Litttle Crow made his
escape with a portion of his band. These
Indians, of whom about one hundred and
fifty are squaws, have been.held as hostages
ever since.
