By Mr. Cartel!, a resolution asking Councils to pro test against the opening of Twenty-fourth street through . olrard College grounds. ,SColonel Page *feted a reaohnion that Councils ex mese their dissent of the act of Assembly which re. •quires the opening of this street. Mr. Smith asked that, the subject he laid over and mule tee. special order for next Thuraday. Colonel Peg° opposed any such diepositlon of the resolution, bat pressed it for, decieton. The bill, without any notice to the Managers Of the Girard Estate, without any information being given to Coun •cile. was pressed through the Legislature by a single individual. This sea WAS passed upon the representa tions of certain interested parties. It ware objection .able and in violation of the contract entered into be tween the State and the City of Philadelphia upon thie,kbject of Girard College. MY, vatted hoped that the resolution would not be postponed. It was the unanimous oinion of the •Committee on Girard Estate that Co p uncils should •exereas their dissent to the act of Assembly. Mr. Fox would vote for a postponement, in order that the whole subject might be properly examined. as it was to the interest of the city. that etreet should he opened through the estate. As it now is, we hedge off. Aro or eight squares of valuable property, and if there is evidence that the barrier deteriorates from the value of a certain section of the city, and keeps •down the revenue to the clty,the objectionable feature should be removed. , Colonel Page read, in support of his position, the preamble and resolutions introduced,by himself on a former occasion. which cited the eleventh section of an old act ,of Assembly, to wit: "Ttutt no fold or street shall be laid out, or pass through the land in the County of Philadelphia becineathed by the late Stephen Girard for the erection of the collegb, unless, the same shall be recommended by the trainees or di rectors of the said college, and approvedof by the Seleet and Common Councila of Philadelphia." . This was the contract entered into between the State and the testator, by which any act looking to the division of these grounds should only be by recommendation and approval of the Trustees and Councils.

Passed. ' Adjourned.. THE COURTS. The Tax on Vapq►ltal stock—litstportant neelston. In the Supreme Conrt Judge Agnew has de livered the following opinion : The Piurnix Iron Company vs. the Ceinmonwealth. Error to the Common Pleas of Dauphin County. The important question in this case is, whether a tax upon capital stock. imposed by the acts of 29th April. 1844, Purdon 949, fotio 118, and 12th April, 1859. Pludon 951, folio 127, is a taxon dividends, within the meaning of the words 'not paying' a tax to the State upon dividends under existing taste," contained fa the 2d section of the act of 30th -April, 1804, Pardon 1,817, folio 3. The tax on dividends is a Woll-knowa mode of raising revenue for the State, upon banks.... Theand was confined in its origin eitietly to banks. The act of April 1,1835,T. is hat a reitera tion of the tame mode Of taxatiou, subjected the. banks of tee Commonwealth to a graduated tax directly,upon their dividende, increasing in propor tion, from eight to eleven per ce ea In all isitbseq dent cbartere the same mode Of taxation was parsec& The general banking act of 10th of April, 18.50, section 21, Tendon 29, toile 84. and the act relating to bank ing companies of Ist ot May, 1861, section 23, pardon Ere, folio 28, laid taxes upon dividends in like ineuner, but increasing the graduation until it rose to thirty per cent. tax on a twenty-Ave per cent. dtvldend. 'Pim act for the incorporation of iron manufacturing companies, of . loth of June, 1830, section 10, Purdon 5 70 1 folio 11, also imposed a tax on dividends of dont per cent. 'ln all instances of a tax upon diet deeds it was laid directly upon the, dividend itself without reference to the stock: e. g on dividends not exceeding six per cent.. eight per cent: exceeding sit, nine percent., &c., etc. hut the act of 29th of April, 1844, section 33, charged the tax which it imposes di rectly apon the capital stock of the corporations of thia State. If the company declared a dtvtdead or Pputt of six per cent. upon the capital, tho tax was to ie measured at the rate of one-half mill on each one per cent. of the dividend or profit: but when the cor poration failed to make dividends, or declared less than six per cent, per annum, thou a valuation'of the stock itself was to be made and returned and the tax wilt to he "a sum equal.to three mills upon every dollar of the value of the capital stock thereof, so estimated and appraised." It the corporation had not sufficient funds, to pay the tax the cashier or treasurer was to notify the stockholders to pay the same in proportion to their stock, and on failure eo much mach of their stock would besold as was required to pay their pro portion, The first section of the act of April 12,1859, also imposed a tax on the capital stock, but changed the act of /844 so far ae, instead of a valustion of the stock when the,dividend fell below six per cent. to re quire payment of the tax at the rate of a half mutter each one per cent. of the dividend made or declared, and provided for the valuation of the stock according makeoct of 1844, only when the corporation failed to or declare any divideed. The first proviso in this section itself makes the distinction between the two species of taxes. It declares "That any institution or company (except banks of issue) now liable for a tax on capital stock, as also upon dividends, shall from henceforth be exempt from any tax upon dividends." Of course it remained liable to the tax on capital stock. The die. tinction was still kept up by the act of 24tte of March, lee°. (Pardon, 956. fol. 158), which relieved banks of discount and deposit and saving institutions, which had been placed by the act of 1859 on the same footing with the banks of issue, from the tax on their div dende The meaning of a tax on dividends was thus well known in the legislation of the State, and, therefore when the act of Vela April, ip64, subjected all curvy ations to a tax on their earnings or income, except those paying a tax on dividends, it was clearly not intended to exempt from the new tax those Inertly paying a tax on their capital stock. It is not alleged that the Phenix Iron Company pays any tax on dividende as such further than the tax on capital graduated by their dividends under the act of 1859, would be considered. As the tax on capital is not to be so considered, the consequence is that this iron company was properly rated. with its earnings or in come tax. The rate of interest upon the balance found due for taxes was correctly adjudged by the Court below, under the provisions of the act of 9th of April, 18.67, P. L. 58. Finding no error in the record, the lodgment is affirmed • For the Commonwealth, Attorney-General Brewster and Deputy attorney• General Newlin. For defendant, Joseph B. Townsend anti Hon. Jobs C.
