THE TAN RATE FOR 1869—REI:or..rs or THE FINANCE COMMI.TTEE.-111 Common COUReli yes terday afternoon the Finance Committee re ported the following: GENTLEMEN : The Committee on Finance re• spectfully submit the annexed ordinance to levy and fix the tax for the year 1869. They have fixed the rate at one dollar and eighty cents, and have made the allowance nine, instead of twelve per cent. No greater difficulty presents itself In municipal legislation than the fixing of the tax rate..J3ince 1851 no rate has been fixed sufficient to meet the expenses of the city government. Several causes might be alleged for this failure to fix an adequate rate. First. the want of time to make the annual appropriations before the arrival of the time for fixitag the tax rate ; second, after the appropriations are made and the tax rate fixed, the necessity for the passage of special appropriations : third, the aversion on the part of members of Councils to imposing heavy taxes on the people. This last came it seems to be difficult to overcome. The rapid growth of the city demands large mu nicipal improvements and it-has been the policy of the city government to provide fpr permanent improvement by loans. and the contmittee regret to say that that a minority in Select Councils, al though having supported appropriation bills for permanent improvements to be reimbursed to the treasury from loans to be hereafter created, obstinately refuse: to vote for the loan bills. They alleged before the election as a reason that the money was to be used for election purposes, and . Total $l 9 507 1 163 now that the election is over they still persist in And it will thus appear that there will be a de their opposition to the loan bills Their opposi- neieney at the end of the year 1869 of over one tioxi to these bills, together with the course pur- I million five hundred thousand dollars.

If paid after the first day of September, and on or before the first day of October, an addition or penalty of one per cent ; and if not paid until after the first day of October, then an alditiolibr penalty of two per cent., shall be to and payable on the same; and if not paid until after the first day of December, then an addition of three per cent. shall be added to and payable on the same. Mr. Littleton presented the following minority report: To the Select and Common Councils of the city of Philadelphia: The undersigned, members of the Finance Committee. cannot agree with the majority of the said committee in fixing the tax rate for the Year 1869 et one dollar and eighty • cents on the hundred, because they believe that this rate will not realize a sum sufficient to meat the estimated demands upon the, city treasury during the corn ing year. With the result of the experience of the last five or six yearg, and the present condition of the City Treasury before them, it was hoped and be lieved that at last a rate would be decided upon , adequate to provide for current expenditures— ' but from the action of the majority of the com mittee it appears that the expectation was delu sive and that the course of folly is still to be con tinued in reference to city finances. It would seem unnecessary to say that the same rale should govern a municipality as would influence a prudent man in the conduct of his business, and that it is as imperative a duty for a city or its rulers to provide adequate means for its an nual expenditures as for an individual to do the same thing for his domestic or business engage ments. But for years this familiar and simple rule has been neglected and repeatedly violated. In no one year since the war began has there been a tax rate producini a sum cesual to current ex penditures. Year after year have deficiencies been accumulating, until the debt of the city has assented gigantic proportions, exceeding the debt of the State itself. No decrease has been ef lected,but accumulation has been steady and con tie uous. To such a course, if recklessly con tie d, there can be but one termination—bank ruptcy; and only one remedy can be applied—a tax rate sufficient for all current appropriations or expenditures, estimated and special, which can be made for or during the year in question. A slight glance at the Controller's estimate will show how insufficient is the rate agreed upon by the majority of the committee: The liabilities of the city for the year IKtYI are estimated 5u Coact ding that the estimated in come from souries other than taxation will be realized in full at expected 3.761;,:62 73 And there remains to be provided tor by taxation tfb 8.1;22,721; 77 The property subject to taxation is classified as follows: 7 Amount subject to full rate $416,- 029,699 all 'I su per cent., will pro duce Amount subject to two-third rate $24,236;286 ® 1.20 per cent., will produce Amount subject" to one-half rate $21,772,6.12 ®,) 90 per cent., will produce Total produce at LSO rate is .• The Controller requires from taxa tion The amount realized from IMO raw Deficiency acuording to Controller's estimate But two very important items 'of expenditure have been omitted in the Controller's estimate of expenses: First—Special appropriations during the year 184;9, for which there is no provision. ~,n(l—Claim of the State for taxes now due and to fall due in 1869. The amount of extra appropriations for the present year, 1868,t0 November.only ten months, is i1d1,539,794 74. If we concede that only one third of this amount will be made for the year 1869 (and thie we believe to be a very moderate calculation), there will be added to the deficiencies over 14500,- 000. The amount vow due to the State for taxes in arrear is at least For 1869 the State's claim will not be less than Total Add to this amount the deficiency now ascertained, according to Control ler's estimates above Add also estimated amount for extra appropriations in 1809 MM=l::== : I' GIU .

W. E-LITTLETON, J. F. DILLon. Also, an ordinance fixing the rate at $2 30 on the hundred dollars. Mr. Littleton (U.) moved to proceed to a mooed reading. • s . BISHOP STEVENS.—A letter from Bishop ' cite vets, relative to Ills 11101111'y to deliver, the ser mon at the consecration of Bishop Morris yester day,. reads as follows: DICK:ISSE op Pnrinsyz.vANA,- - Birrinifnam, -Dec. 1, 1868.—My Dear .Dnetor : Yon can but faintly Imagine the great sorrow I feel in not being able to be with you this day. To have this consecration _ take_ place in my Diocese and to haveone of My beloved presby ters elevated by it to the espicopate, and yet be debarred the privilege of taking` ny assigned part in that solemn service, is indeed a ' peculiar trial. But God, in His loving mercy, has seen it best so to disable me and larme aside that it will bo a month - at latistbeforeT real - Awe - my . duties. I bow cheerfully to the will of my blessed Lord, and only pray that the abundance of my afflic tions during the past nine months may redound to His glory and the well-being of His Church. As I cannot be present to say in the sermon which I wa's appointed to preach what I should like to say of and to the Bishop elect, I feel that it Incomes me in this public manner to record my sense of the groat wisdom of the House of Bishops in nominating my beloved brother to his missionary episcopate, and my belief -in the eminent fitness for the office of him who was thus the unanimous choice of the-General Con-' vention. Ho has my confidence, thy sympathy, and my affection.. I shall follow you in the consecration service this day on -my sick bed, and join heartily in every prayer that shall be offered in his behalf. Most heartily do I Implore for him a fresh anointing of the Holy Ghost, that he may be thoroughly furnished for the great work which God has called him to do on the Pacific, shore. The text which I had selected,_ and .upon which I was writing the consecration sermon, when I was interrupted by my accident, was the pointed exhortation of Him who walketh among the seven golden candlesticks to the angel of the Church of Smyrna—"Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life." May God who has called him to this office, endow him with all fidelity and spiritual wisdom to administer the affairs of his missionary juris diction so that the Church of the Living God may be strongly built up there, resting solely upon the foundation of the Apostles and Pro phets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cor ner stone; and at last give hiM that crown of lite that fadeth not away. I remain, with great respect, very truly yours, WILLIAM BACON STEVENS. • PEDLAR CLIARGRD Whim ZORGERY.—Alexander Soloneki, a pedlar, was yesterday arrested by Detectives Fuller and Brown, for swindling. It seems that he took a written guaranty purport ing to have been signed by A. H. Marshon to the house of Lanning & Roberts, No. 209 Market street. about a year and a half ago, and desired to make a purchase of goods. On the strength of his assertion that the guaranty was genuine, a bill of s4bo 59 was sold him. On this he paid $143 48. Not being seen for some time, the firm inquired, about the matter and found the name of Mr. Mershon to be a forgery. The accused also calied on Mr. Thomas H. Stauffer about the same time and on the signature of Mr. Mershon bor rowed $lOO. This was also a forgery. The pri toner stated at the hearing that a brother of Mr. Mershon signed the two documents. This was proved untrue and he was committed in default of $32,000.

NOVEL MODE OF OF:TAT:TING MONEY.-A lad, of about sixteen years of age, was accused, before Ald. Boitler, yesterday, of obtaining small sums of money by means of false telegraphic des patches. Ho had been employed in one of the telegraph offices, and his arrest grew out of a similarity of handwriting of that in the despatches with his own. He then confessed that he had written and delivered the forged messages. One — of them hadgiven a good deal of uneasiness to the family of Mr. Theodore H. Vettorloin, North Broad street,as it announced that a son had been killed on a railroad, which was a pure invention of the writer. The lad was sent to prison for trial. s OME3I A. citm - yr nr altr: N,tv nit U. —A. man named Jno.Carrigan,employed at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, yesterday afternoon fell through the sky light of one of the buildings to the first tloor,and was shockingly mangled.

The following is the report of Brevet Major- General Reynolds, commanding the Fifth Mili tary District, which embraces the State of Texas: r,. ;!t s. MILITARY DISTRICT, STATE. OF TEXAS, AUSTIN, NOV. 4, 1868.—A djut«nt-t: enerai United States A ring, Washington, D. C.—GENERAL : have the honor to forward herewith an annual tabular statement of expeditions, scouts, and re ports of movements of the various regiments serving in this district for the year ending Sept. 30, 1868. Armed organizations,generally known as the Ku-Klux Klan, exist independently or in concert with other armed bands in many parts of Texas, but are moat numerous, bold, and aggres sive east of the Trinity river. The precise objects of these organizations cannot be readily explained, but seem in this State to be disarm, roe, and•in many cases occasion may oiler, murder [lilted States officers and soldiers: also to intimidate every one who knows anything of the „organization but will not join it. The civil law east of the Trinity river is almost a dead letter. In some counties, the civil officers are all. or a portion of them, members of the Klan; in other counties, where the civil officers will not join the Klan, or some other armed hand, they have been compelled to leave their counties. Examples are Van Zandt, Smith and Marion counties. The county seat of the latter is Jeffer son. In many counties, where the county offi cers have been driven off, their influence is scarcely felt. What political end, If any, •is aimed at by these bands, I cannot positively say, but they attend in large bodies the political meetings and barbecues which have been and are being held in various parts of the State, under the auspices of the Democratic clubs of the dif ferent counties. i'7,188,5:;() 58 291,07:', 42 193,953 77 Et7,r;5,563 77 b,622 ,72G 77 7,975,5f1:1 77 $647,163 00 $ 2( JO, 000 $ 3 )0,000 The speakers encourage the attendance, and in many counties men have been indicated by name from the speaker's stand as those selected for murder. The men thus marked have no course left them but to leave their homes, or be mur idered on the first convenient opportunity. . The murder of Degrees is so'cotamon as to render it impossible to keep an account of them. Many of the members of these bands of outlaws are transient persons in the State. The absence of. railroads and telegraphs, and great length of time required to communicate between remote points, facilitate the diabolical purposes. These organizations are evidently counte nanced, or, at least, not discouraged by a major'- , ty of white people in the counties where the , bands are most numerous. They could not oth _erwise exist. I have given this matter dose at tention, and am satisfied that a remedy, to he of ,fective, must be gradually applied, and combined with the firm support of the army, until these outlaws,are,punished or dispersed. They cannot $64;,163 500,000 51,772,317 51 1;507,163 / pi 0 Affairs in Texas. be punished by the' cli/11 courts until 'Borne ex , ampler of military; commissions shotV that .men can be punished in Texas for murder and kindred crimes. _Perpetrators :of such crimes-have 'not heretofore, except in very rare instances, been punished in the State at all. Free speech and -free press, as the terms are generally understood In other States, have never existed in Texas. In fact, the citizens of "other States cannot appre ciate the state of affairs in Texas without actual ly experiencing it. The official report's of lawlessepss and crime, so far jrom being exaggerated, dtV_ not tell the. whole truth. Jefferson is the centre' from which moat of the trade, travel, and lawlessness of Eastern Texas radiate; and at this point, or its vicinity, there should be stationed about a regi ment of troops. , The recent murder at Jefferson of Hon. GI W. Smith, a delegate to the Coitstitu. tional Convention, has made it necessary to or der more troops to that point. This movement weakens the frontier posts to such an extent as to impair their efficiency for protection against the Indians, but the bold wholesale murdering in the interior of the State seems at present to present a more urgent demand for 'troops than Indian depredations. The - frontier posts should, however, be reinforced, if possible, as it is not improbable that the Indians from the North west, after having suffered defeat there, will make heavy-incursions into -Texas.- - To restore measurable peace and quiet to Texas will require for along time that troops be eta= Boned at many county seats, until by their presence, and aid if necessary, the civil law can be placed in the hands of reliable officers and ex ecuted. This will be th 9 work of years, and will be fully accomplished only by an increase of population. I am, General, very respectfully your obedient servant, J. J.
