Bonne at Frankfort, 872 GoiD closed in New York yesterday at 134135. THIS EVENING Hon. WILLIAM D. 'KELLEY, of Phila. delphia, will address our citizens at the City Hall—and, the Hall will be full. Judge KELLEY, through the course of a long public career, stood well forward among the foremost and most eloquent advocates of Republican freedom, against the special privileges of a class or a race, and of American interests against all for eign rivalry. Our own Commonwealth has had, at home or in its. National coun cils, no truer or more efficient representa tive. We hope to see his audience, this evening, swelled by the presence of every citizen who believes in the liberty of man, and in the pita claims of home industry. None such will go away tonight unsatis fled. De NOT FAIL to read the address of the Republican State Central Committee, /which is elsewhere published this morn ing. It is spirited and hopeful and w' imply repay perusal. pnr. project for the establishment of a new Market House on Fifth avenue, for the accommodation of people residingte the outlying wards, was not considered yesterday, owing to a press of ether mat ters. We confidently believe that the site selected by the Market Committee will be finally adopted- Trim new water works question was not reached in Common Council yester day until so late an hour as to preclade the possibility of its being duly considered and discussed. ' Considerable opposition to the site favorably acted upon by, the Select branch, was manifested, and it , is not improbable that the entire work will have to be gone over before any selection is made. We think it would be proper and prudent for every member of the Common Council to visit the CoLzmAN- Thum property before the next meeting, so that he may be enabled to vote I in telligently on the merits or demerits of the site.selected by the members of the Select branch. Tnz brief tour of Gov. GRAR:through the *stern end of the Mate has been a series• of ovations to the distinguished gentleman. He has everywhere been accorded a happy and hearty welcome, and we want no better evidence of his popnlarity than that famished by the people thus far in the campaign. His speeches have bedn masterly efforts, emi nently worthy of his character and repu tation, and not inconsistent with the rela tions he bears . towards the entire people of- the Commonwealthta as their Chief Executive. Dignified, nthful and just, earnest, sincere and conscientious, Gov. GRAM: has succeeded in his recent tour lu making many new friends and in add rag vastly to the personal popularity he so deservedly enjoys. Tan liberal Republicinthun whit"' con/ . mends itself to a large proportion of the most intelligent and patriotic citizens of . West Virgltdk and which the President sneer: sally endorsed a few days since, dose not ploie thit tarictint Pharisee of our party, Senator Boreman. This gen tleman proposes to resist the abrogation, by the Republican party in that State, of the existing restrictions upon the suf frage, evidently preferring that this..bu sincss shall be delayed until that extreme moment when its Republican control shall be quite out of the question. It t is hardly necessary to add that, if he can have his way in the premises, he is very likely to be at that time found outside of the Republican lines. When we observe the fishy complexion of divers politicians whom our West Virginia friends have heretofore persuaded themselves to trust, and bow disagreeably their performances in office have come short of their previous profession, we find'much consolation In the assurance that better days and truer representatives are yet in store for their Republican organization. THE DELAY, AND ITS FRUIT. Spain has waited so long for a King, that Republicanism demands to be heard in the control of the situation. The new ConstitUtion expressly recogulies n ited monarchy responsible to the national will, and the Republican Deputies in the Cortes were, with but one or two exceptions, unanimous in pronoun• cing their adhesion to . its provisions. But the necessities a the situation change rapidly when a revolution le suf fered to remain incomplete, and the odds now are that the game of monarchism has been piayed with too deep a finesse. Spain can wait no longer for a regular and permanent government. - Prim and I Serrano must give place to Castellar and purely republican institutions ) or hold their own status at the point of the bayo i net. When Visitellar, at Saragossa, a few days since, urged upon the twenty thous and Spaniards who heard his voice, that monarchism should be resisted to the last, it was easy to foresee that an hour of trial was soon coming for that people which had dethroned despotism with out a .struggle, • and which had borne the progress of intrigues the most insulting to Spanish pride with a calm patience astonishing to the world. The same revolution, not a counter one, at last advances with that step which hag been plainly foreseen,- ear anast d Spai ee n, which has for more than a y p been better governed without a crown than ever be fore by an immemorial line of kings, is invited to discard the forms, of royalty forever. The ambition of the Regency has made the opportunity of the people. The in trigues which have procrastinated the oc cupation of the throne promise now to result in overthrowing that throne for-, ever. Republicanism, the idea of nation al liberty and popular self-government, has thriven while the Regency has pal tered; it is clearly fourfold stronger now than at the elections which summoned the present ,fortes to the government of the realm of a deposed Queen. The coming struggle will show whether the Spaniards have ripened, under the strangely fostering experiences of the years past, into such complete fitness for self-government as shall justify and sus tain the counsels of the 'Republican leaders. If Spain be all ripe for demo cratic institutions' as Castellar and his friends evidently believe, her people will make short work of the intrigues of Ser rano, the bayonets of Prim, and the linger ing hopes of the monarchists. .4. SLANDERER SELF-CONVICTED. Some days ago the Commereialoifier recapitulating the details of a "People's" movement in Cincinnati, against the Re publican organization, expressed in strong terms the belief that a similar movement in Allegheny county would be productive of beneficial results in defeating and rebliking bad men who were candidates for office. In consequence, on' Saturday last, we appealed to our contemporary to name the improper candidates, and to specify in what their bsdnes3 consists. In reply we got this, and no more: “There is a chance to some "organ" to read leading R o e r p u w b e i n a y papers l m i o New fiue onrtkl a u a t n f I the party fur Inculcating the policy and import ariels Of bolting corruptluoista wher<V , r they manage to procure a nomination.

It is not blasting men's reputations hy sug gestion or inuendo. It is not confounding the innocent with the guilty, by imputa tions so general that they cannot be met. But this is plain and manly denunciation, accompanied by direct and pungent spe ettleation. In this way we would have the Commercial deal with those against whom its malice is aroused. But we know it will not so deal. It is not in its nature to be fair and honorable. Besides, it has no accusations to make against any one of the Republican candidates, either on the State or County ticket, which it da l es undertake to, support with a show -of ;evidence. It prefers to earn a cheap and unsubstantial reputatidis wi 6h igno rant or passionate readers as a champion i of reform, by sweeping but unsupported defamation of whole classes. • Besides, the Commercial forgets that it put in a prompt and fulsome endorsement of the ticket and every man on it. What has occurred to change its views and pur poses in regard to them? If it has come into possession of fresh facts which war rant its change of front, why don't it re veal what the facts are, and so vindicate itself as well as confound its opponents? We offered, weeks ago, if our contem- porary would make out a case against' any Republican candidate to join it in, compelling his withdrawal, or else in securing his defeat. ,We' announced, in the broadest terms, that we repudiated the pretended obligation to support bad men because they managed to be regularly nominated. From that position we shall not budge. now or hereafter. But the Com mercial fails to point out any one man on the ticket who is objectionable in character or qualifications. It has been standing as an accusor for months, but obstinately refuses to tell who it is incensed against and for what reason. We cannot 'join hands with it in so flagitious and dis reputable a crusade. So long as our neighbor maintains its present attitude, it ought not to wonder that it receives no countenance from the Republican National, Stan, County and City organizations. If it was engaged in hunting corrupt men out of positions of influence, it would be rendering l torious service to the party, but it does nothing of the sort. It simply assails the party, without specification and proof, as persistently and commonly nominating bad men. On this ground it urges in a withdrawal of confidence and support from the party; and urges independent movements for its overthrow. When we set- out a week ago It was with the intention of constraining the Commercial to take such an attitude *as would abundantly satisfy all reasonable citizens that it had in point of fact no def late complaints to make against any one candidate on the Republican ticket; in other words, to demonstrate that it was not a reformer, but a disorganizer. Hay accomplished all that, we now go about other business. • - MR. PACKER AND 1114 TAXES. the point raised against Mr. Packer that he has dishonorably evaded the just payment of taxes has produced such effect upon the voters of the Common wealth, that his leading advocates have been forced to take up the matter. Of course, in dealing with the facts e they n deavpr to make them carry the beat possi ble face, to this end straining them from their natural connection, and interjecting some statements which are not facts, but flagrant misrepresentations. Onthe Philadelphia Age Saturday, made a vigorous but unsuccessful attempt to prove that Mr. Packer had ever sought to avoid the payment of never taxes properly assessed or assessable. Its as careful, however, not to make any u sion to taxes alleged to be owing to the General Government on several millions of dollar&in bonds held by that gentle man, or on income from other sources. The first point it makes is that Mr. Packer did not chriage his residence from Mauch Chunk to Philadelphia, in order to get rid of taxes, but to meet the neces sities of his business. Now, we are aware that a place of residence is very much a matter of intention rather than of argument. A. man may have as many homes as he can afford, or finds conven ient. But, we must be allowed to say that when the Age gravely affirms that Mr. Packer, having a fortune of twenty millions of dollars, took up his abode in a third-rate hotel, and stays there year after year, because he can find no dwell ing house to shit him, it makes s state ment which it is really difficult to accept, especially in view of other facts which cannot be Ignored. Mr. PACERS'S taxes at Mauch Chunk amounted in 1867 to more than half of the duplicate of that borough. It was at this precise pinch that he put in the plea that he was no longer a resident of. Carbon county, but was a'resid of Philadelphia. So far ,as this &cument stance counts at all, it is not in favor of the position taken in his behalf. But it is claimed for Mr. PACS= that in 1867, when he contested the payment he of his taxes in Carbon county, did so because his personal property was as sassed ae well as his real estate, and this on the plea that hispersonal estate should have been assessed in Philadelphia. It is farther claimed that he paid the whole as sessment, with the under3Usuding that thencefonvird his paiong .property should sotto Aated'ln Carbon. The ta testitwisn2l4o4mo= in him to pay a large sum of taxes for which he was not legally liable. It seems more probable that he consented to pay those taxes becsase none had been as sessed against him% Philadelphia. The inference would be that in Philadelphia, at least, he had kept quiet as to his claim of being a citizen there, insomuch that he was not on the assessor's list. The only other point of consequence brought forwaid is, that prior to 1868, Mr. Packer was individually liable for taxes upon interests held by him in the Lehigh Valley Railroad, and that the C9mpany was made liable therefor by act of As sembly of that year; and hence the dif ference between the respective assess ments at Manch Chunk and Philadelphia., This will not do. The act of April 29,1 1844, made interests in any incorporated company subject to taxation, and in cast dividends were not declared and paid, provided for an appraisal of the stock, and subjected the stock itself to taxation. The plain meaning of the law was that th l e respective companies should pay thes,e taxes; but a somewhat loose practice may possibly have grown up; some com panies paying and others leaving te indi vidual stockholders to pay, but of h this We have no evidence, and none especially in the case under consideration. The act of March 31, 1864, extended the application of the former statute, but so far from modifying it, providld for the forfeiture of the charters of all compa nies that failed to comply. The act of .May 1,1868, which was de signed as a general revision t e pf the iris system of the State, made no change \in the taxation of stocks or dividends, but only made'it mandatory on the varieus corporations to pay the thxes assessed on their capital or earnings. It cannot, therefore, be true that an alteration in the law in 1868, released Mr. Packer fr m a large amount of taxation to which he had previously been liable. Whoe er will take the pains to compare the stet tes of 1868, 1864, and 1844, will see that is is so. If we recollect right, the Lehigh Ve ley Railroad was not completed until the summer of 1867. The first quarterl re turn of business made by it to the A di tor General, in conformity with the tax laws, was made in November of 'that year. When it commenced paying divi dends, we have no means of determin ing. Prior to paying dividends that stock was subject to appraisement each year for purposes of taxation, and the Company itself was bound to respond.. So far, then, the Age has not cleared this case at all, but only contrived to show how little can be offered in de fence of Mr. Pecsain in the matter wherein he is incriminated. If it, has more light to shed, the voters will be glad to see it. It has become decidedly fashionable for rich men to be strangely poor one day in the year, and that is the day they make returns to the asses• sore. There has been more of this than the masses are willing to stand, or than the general government can endure. It may be that whoa Mr. Dada:o shall have the income taxes for last year re assessed, additional information may be accessible on this head. Let him.hurry up, ,S 0 that Mr. PACKER'S case may be authoritatively expounded before election day.

THE OTOICNOR•TICE. CASE. The Final Decision of the Referee viii \ dicating the Messrs. Tack. The general business community must be thoroughly acquainted with the his tory of the case Which has for some time past occupied the attention of the Phil adelphia Quarter Sessions, of James O'Connor vs Brottens, a vexatious snit growing out of an oil transaction made by the defendants in their cap acities as mmission merchants acting ss factorsco forthe plaintiff. prior to the commencement one suit, the Messrs. Tack sustained an enviable reputation forhoneaty and integrity, and their friends ware f ag grieved that the charges made by Mr. O'Connor should have obtained publicity before any opportunity was afforded for them to. tie fairly and squarely met in a court of Justice: At the inception of the announcement that the suit had been commenced, the Pittsburgh Petro leum Association, having large confi dence in the defendants, unanimously passed a resolution asserting their faith in their honesty and asking for the sus• pension of public opinion until such time as the matter might be isosed of in a legal • manner. The p l ai nttiff ten aciously followed the case, and bad-en gaged in the prosecution very bright and able legal gentlemen in order to insure the conviction of the defendants evi dence of an exhaustive and thoroughly searching nature was taken, and proved voluminous enough to fill a enteel sized boat:. Indeed, con sideregd from every stand point the trial was a most remarkable one. and as it has resulted in a beggarly award to the plaintiff whose claims amounted to over thirty thousand dollars, the vindication of the Tack Brothers is full andsomplete. They had much at stake iu the legal duel, inasmuch as their vast business connections, their high reputation as commercial agents and operators and their personal characters were involved in the issue- They now emerge from the legal ordeal with name and fame as bright as ever and with no diationorable act fastened upon them. We herewith subjoin the decision of the referee which is final and conclusive, both parties being willing to acquiesce to t as it conies from such a distin guished, honorable and unimpeachable source. It may be welt to preface the statement with the announcement that while Mr. O'Connor's claims amounted to 131,881.25, the Messrs. Tack put in counter claims of $3,978.79, and the award taken on claims and counter claims, several of which have been allowed either party, making the balance of the award in favor of 3.1 r. O'Connor. Here to the decision by ex-Judge Story of the Supreme bench, the Referee; "I, the undersigeed,to whom the fore going reference was made, under a rule of the Supreme Court of January 21, 1869, having been duly sworn justly and equitably to try all matters in variance submitted to me, having heard the par ties at length by their counsel, and hav ing considered their claims, proofs and averments, do report that J. find there is due, and I so award, to the plaintiff,from the defendants, the sum of six hundred and ninety seven dollars and eighty.eight cents. In explanation of this award, I add that I have charged the defendants with the differences due the plaintiff on their sale to him and Robert Finney of twouty-five hundred barrels of oil, in March, 1837, with interest thereon; also with what the plaintiff has become liable to pay in consequence of his contract with M. and P. Badetty, made through the. defend ants, with interest thereon, and also with one thousand dollars money, bad and received by the tiefendants to the use of the plaintiff, with interest thereon. / have disallowed ALL °mint c Loins OF TEE PLAINTIFF AS NOT SUSTAINED IN LAW AND IN FACT. I have credited the defendants with commissions e irnal so far as I think them entitled thereto, and with interest thereon. I have also credited them with money expended by them in settlement of a contract of plaintiff with Kirkpatrick dr, Co., also with five -eighths of a sum cf money expended by them in tae s u m merit of a contct f the .pintiff with Bunker Bros. it ra Co. , with intere ai st on said sums. The larger claims of the defen dants I have disallowed. By the agreement under which the case was referred to me, it was stipulated reference , and the acompensation of the phonographer, as well as the taxable costs of the civii . suits, which have been instituted, both as against the defendants and the suit against the plaintiff, shall be paid by the party or parties against whom the referee shall make his award." I have not thought this authorized me to include the costs in'those civil suits in the sum awarded, but at the request of the counsel of both Parties I report that of those costs and expenses there have been paid by the plaintiff, including in terest thereon, the sum of seven hundred and eighty•two dollars and ten cents, which, under the agreement, is duesfrom the defendants to the plaintiff.

One of the truest and most stiggestice ideas can be obtained from the caption at the bead of this article; for of all diseases which impair human health and thorsen human life. none are more prettalent than those which agent the lungs and pulmonary tissues. 'Whether we regard lung diseases In the light of a merely slight cough, which Is but the fore-runner of a more seriotut malady. or as a deep lesion corroding and dis solving the pulmonary structure, it is always pregnant with evil and foreboding of disaster. In no class of maladies should the physician or the friends and family of the patient be more seriously forewarned than in those of the lungs, for it is in them that early and efaelent treat ment Is most desirable, and it is then that danger can be warded off and a cure effected.
