But there I can be Ho danger apprehended by any sane men , 1 of the Court House being demolished by the pro-1 timed change of grade. Next, we are told that the Catholic Church is in danger of corning down. "Justice” and theleOld Citizen" both forget that I that Church is built upon a rock, and cannot filth! Moreover, if reference is lead, to the numerous pet ' titions lately presented to our lion. Councils, it will be seen that as strong adherents to the Catho lic faith, and as good members in the Catholic Church as the "Old Citizen," respectfully petition Councils to lower Grant street, at Filth, thirteen I feet; and these do not live on Fifth street, between Wood and Smithfield : hence the vile slander, in our opinion of the "Old Citizen," who says that only ten or Twelve, who live on Fifth street, ask for this change of grade. If he was as conversant with the names of the petitioners for ten or thir teen feet being taken ow Grant, at Fifth as he is with the actions of the Committee of St. Paul's Church, be would see that our most respectable • citizens from Ferry str/et,and all over the city, even out to the Cokes, that is beyond the Eighth I Ward, see the propriety of reducing the grade ten orthirteen feet. at Grant and Fifth streets, and have signed petitions to that effect. It may be , said that a protection wall is necessary, if the • grade is lowered. That is necessary at the present ! g •ade : hence we see that all the additional expense! in a few perches more of a protection wall ; and, that will be a small matter among so many rich , men. The Cathedral, as all our citizens know, • stands at least thirty feet back off the street; hence there is ticedenger of it coming down. And its for,' excavation, we find it is not their intention to grade their lot any lower thereit mewls; and when the whole matter is impartially %sighed, we find that the exaggerated amount, of the "Old Citizen' must dwindle down. ut most, to a very few hun dred dollars. The next objection is t \ he•destruction of Avery's buildings, which Thomas ''airman and two others, under oath, estimated the real estate and buildings at ten thousand dollars. We think all the injury that Mr. Avery's buildings will sustain is, that he will be under the necessity of lowering his pave ment, and putting a few more steps to his front doors; lint the " Old Citiaen," eager to make his sum look large, puts this down at fifteen thousand dollars. But; air, it may be that we are erring in not making allowance for the old man, who made these calculations. We might go on and Show ' that every item to which -he has referred ,is , egregiously exaggerated ; and to, us it is astonishing that the e Old Citizen," (and'. it may be that he considers himself respectablt",) would attempt to' draw so largely on the po'''re ignorance, 'as to ex- pect the most ignorant to Believe•such statements; which are destitute of 'every: the shadow of plausi; bility. We are, of the opinion of _many others. that if Fifth street, from Roes - to Smithfield, was paved at the present time, before one year Would relapse: oar citizens generally would, strongly nine, for their Uwe' convenience and the chi's good, the reduction of Grant, at Fifth, ten feet at least. Our County Commissioners petitioned-re this effect; and would have continued so' ter die, had it not been for the influence that - some` of our jaundiced.eyed mdivide , alsexerted over them. But our-honorable COuncife are .not to be deterred frorn carrYinc,_' not, the-mill of.the citizens by such visionary:calcu: latdrr. , - . SEVENTH WARD.- For Oa Misrl.iog Mt, Eorron .—As the committee on appeals!, from the a wl.ft.s meat of Water Tax are to mret Monday, I Would call their attention to a matter of some interest to a-large number of our viliz4ns _those who base beretnfope kept houses of public erdertaieroeut. At the last session of our Legisla• lure, a law was passed, submittieg the (potion of licensing public houses to the voters of the respec. tire districts. If the Court are of opinion that 1. that law is constitutional, and ;proceed to carry ; I out its pros isions, they will of ; course grant no I lacenAs in the city, because there was a majority; against license in every ward; consequently, those' who hose heretofore been engaged in this husinets must give up their occupation, and turn their at. ; teution to something else. They have all been as sestet', however, as the consumers of water in theirl line of business, for a year ending the first of April next. Now, a question will arise, as to whether! they can be made pay for that which they do not use ; or whether the City Councils have a tight to assess them for an occupation which she laws of the State have taken away from them. For one, I think the • committee would save much trouble by adjourning over to such tine as they,. can see the action of the Court in relation to the matter, and regulate their course accordingly because if the Court decide against the licensing of public houses, the collection of these taxes will , be resisted ! and as the law says in cases of con• tract, there must always be a consideration, a quid pro quo, they will be resisted effectually, The persons assessed will refuse to pay, and then they roust be summoned to 'answer an action of debt ; a ul for the reasons above mentioned, they will put the city into the costs. It wilt not do to say that under the ordinances or laws in relation to this matter, that the collector, in the event of refusal to pay, has a right to levy and sell for the taxes. If he would attempt lt, he would find those ordi nances but a poor protection to him in invading rights which are guarantied to the citizen by the constitution. Here, then, is a matter in which the city is concerned to the amount of some three thousand dollars, depending upon the way in which the Court shall dispose of the license question. It the decision is against licenses, there must be that much of wdeficiency'from the assessment for this year. Should not the committee wait the action of the Court, and then call Councils together to make up the deficiency. JUSTICE.
