Sec ond Controller Maynard has rendered an important decision under the additional bounty a-t of July 2", I;!?.

The Supreiii Court having decided that the tax law is constitutional except in a mi nor i. articular, wtrch will not alter the amount received. Chief Clerk McCammont says as to the amount of revenue he will get under the law : " I can't tell how much the revenue will he increased, as the blanks have not been sent out yet. There are sev eral counties in which the assessments are not completed yet. Scattering returns, how ever, indicate that there will be S'O percent increase over the old law. This per cect will not be kept up. Under the old act the rev enue was about JooO OH). This may be in creased now to l,W)fd or $2,tj0.l at least three times as much as heretofore." Cashier Livsey estimates the available reve nue under the new act this year at about $1.000 0 0, owing to some of the counties re ceiving credit for unpaid tax in former years. For instance, All-'gheuy county this year will receive a credit of almost j-XJ.(0., leaving the amount turned iuto the Treasu ry very smali. There are other counties that also have large sums to tiieir credit. The second week ol court .convened at 10 o'clock Monday morning.

Or-EsiMi or Someuset's FittrT Opeka HoiSK. The new Opera House, the first one ever erected in Somerset Comity, was opened last Tuesday evening by the Bella Moore Dramatic Camimnv in the ponular play " A Mountain Pink." lhe large audience that ! crowded the building was certainly flatter- ' to the siirightlv voung actress, and very encouraging to the enterprising young gen-! tlemen who own the house, which is a de- i cided credit to the town. We gavca descrip- j tion of the building, stage, and scenerv m a i former issue. Over seven hundred people witnessed the performance of " A Mountain , Pink," and quite as many were present Wednesday evening, when " The LUnites " was played by the same company. " The Danites " requires the full strength of Miss Moore's company in its preduction. It is a ! most exciting and highly interesting play, j and the audience was completely carrieel i awar with it. The " ledge" was most ad- mirably personated by Mr. Hanna. while Mr. Louis Egan, as the " Heathen Chinee," call e-1 forth rounds ot appiaase and peals of laughter whenever he appeared. Miss Moore most excellently rendeerd the characters of Nancy Williams and Billee Piper. "A Mountain Pink" ran smoothly from beginning to end. and ibedilferent members of the troupe threw themselves into the plot with creditable force-and energy. Both plays were well received, but Wednesday evening's performance was the more gener ously applauded and was generally conceded to be the better of the two.

The Intense excitement called lorlli by the agitation of this question for the past several months, has abated. The forces have met in a hand- to-hand struggle ; both sides fought bravely .... ,r : , and manfully, and both ca.ue off Tictonous " SO lUCJ T The liquor men were repre- ! sented bv the ablest coansel that could be procured, and the temperance people were bo less ably represented. In its last issue the Hebald gaTean ac count of the openinglof the fight Monday night, when arguments were made by W. H. Rnppel. Val Hay, A. H. Coffroth and Elder Peter Yogel oa behalf of the remon strants, and bv H. L. Baer. Esq.. on behalf of the aetitioners. When court assembled Tuesday evening the usual crowd was in attendance, and the argument was ontin ned on the side of the liquor men by Col. J. R. Edie, John H. Chi, J. R. Scott, and Den nis Meyers, Esqr's. There was no session of court held ft'ed nesday evening. Thursday eaening W. II. Koontz. Esq., continued the argument for the license applicants, and Col. Isaac Hugus closed the argument for that side. Messrs. Ruppel, Hay and Coffroth then concluded the argument on behalf of the temperance people. The court gave the utmost liberty to both sides, patiently aud attentively listened to all they had to say, and when they had fin- rshed took all the petitions, remonstrances and tapers in the different cases, to give them a fair and impartial examination De-1 fore making a dacision. The matter was again taken up at Friday evenings session of court, wnen Judge Baer made the same order that he had maele in Bedford relative to all bar rooms being kept on the first lloor, tc Under this rule all applicants who are granted license, lift them with the understanding that they will be revoked il within thirty days their bars are not kept on the first floor, in a room opening on the street, and without screens or blind tloors. They must also agree to close their bars not later than 10 o'clock t. h. The opinion of the court delivered at Bedford was published in the Herald of week before last. At this session and the session ot Saturday morning, the following rulings were made In the matter of the application for license : There being no remonstrance against the application of F. J. Foller, at New Balti more, George H. Uellayen, at Glencoe. Fred Durr, at Pocahontas, made by the citizens of the several towns and townships in which the applicants reside, and none but general remonstrances made by citizens of Wellers burj and Dayidsvillc against licenses any where, and these not verified by oath under the rules of court, therefore li censes under the laws of the State, andsub jeet to the rules of this Court, assented to by the applicants by lilting their license, are now granted to August Koehler. Davids ville; Frank J. Foller, ew Baltimore; Fred Iurr, Pocahontas ; George H. I)eHa ven, Glencoe, and J. J. Kennell, of Weliers burg, to expire on third Monday of May term, 1KS7. j Fourteen citizsns have certified and sign- Eighteen other citizens have signed and cer tified for Mr. John Hite, and four have made like affidavit of fitness and necessity. The sain of the citizens certifying and ask ing tiiat license tie granted is 4J. Against this a remonstrance is on file denyiug the nevessiiy, but not attacking the fitness of the applicants, or their houses, signed by 2 male citizens and ."12 ladies. The petitions for aud against are equally respectable, but the remonstrance is irregularly on file, not having been sworn to, aud is in violation of the rule ol court. Our plain duty is to grant the Pcense, which we now do, to John Hite and Samuel Custer, as in the pre ceding ruling. . Thirty-seven tsoiis, citizens of Addison, have certified and signed petitions for li cense to be granted to Charles A. Mitchell and Edward Nicklow, of whom four made affidavit of fitness and necessity. Addi tional petitions signed by a large number are on tile, but irregularly so, and cannot be considered, and the testimony of seventeen ;ersois (citizens) taken on rule, is on file. Against this apears special remonstrances signed by ten males, twenty-three females, and sworn to by four citizens, assailing the necessity only. In addition there is irregu larly on file, against the rules of court, be cause not sworn to, petitions signed by 23 men and C7 ladies. On the case made, the court deciding judicially could not rule otherwise than to grant the licenses asked for, as petitioners and remonstrants are equally respectable. Licenses are now graut ed to Charles A. Mitchtl! and Edward Nick low, as tinder the first ruling. The applications at Confluence are in due form, and in compliance with the law. Be sides the lacl that the petitions are in form, aud verified by the affidavits of two persons the affidavits of sixteen jiersons appear on ti le testifying to the fitness of applicants of two houses and the necessity of the public houses. A remonstrance is on file signed by 19 men and 22 ladies denying the neces sity, but not verified under oath, and iu contiict with the rule of court. To refuse the licences would be au abase of the judi cial power. The licenses to Scett Sterner aud R. T. Frazil are now granted, as uuder the tirst ruling. The application of Joseph Schroe k.is withheld, to be acted on at ad journed court, because of allegations both as to fitness of the place made by a member of the bar, and the propriety of grautinj, more than two in theniace. The application of Lewis J. Esken, from Berlin, is in due form, and in compliance with the rules. It is made by an excellent citizen, and certified Ui by twelve reputable i persons ; it is supplemented by the atlidavit of ten citizens. A special reoionstance sign- " ."V " - , I ""S"--.! sworn to by twelve reputable citizens . ,., , . is on hi v.

We purposely declare that we base the judgment of the court on the case made by the papers oo tile : it we have erred, our. action can possibly be reviewed, as the court above will have the same light and facts, precisely aa we have had. The gener al remonstrance, large and respectable as it is. being that of eighty ladies and five men, we have not considered in our ruling in this case. The license is refused.

Colborn, Marshall. nineteen Secial remoiist ranis, is stithcient- ly made out to war-ant the court in refusing him license. Tbo licen-ie to Bm-kman and Haines are granted : tiiat of Alexander Rhode, is refused. Id the matter of the application for license at Mcyersdale: Vpon due consideration of all the petitions, remonstrances and evi dence, the court is of opinion the prepon derance is with the applicants, and deter mining the matter judicially on the cases made, we grant the licenses of Nathaniel Slicer. John 81ieer. Eliza Baer, Robert Guthrie and E. C. Walker. This may be a large number, but there is nothing before us to warrant refusing either. And we think the weight ot evidence is against the appli cant at West Salisbury, and his license is refused. In the matter of the applications of Mrs. Eliza Tayman and Wm. J. Higginbotbam, for tavern licenses in Somerset borough, the Court, on careful examination and due con sideration, find, 1st. That the petition of each of said ap plicants is in due form, and the fitness of the applicant aud the bouse, and the neces sity of the ho.se, as a public house for the entertainment of strangers and travellers, is duly certified to by at least 12 reputable cit izens on each petition. 2d. That the truth of the facts set forth are sworn to as required by the rules of Court, by two affiants to each petitk n and that the bond is in due form with ample se curities. In the absence of anything appearing .to j thecontrary on this showing, each appli- j cant was entitled to license under existing : laws. : To these applications remonstrances were filed, as follows : 1st. General remoastrance by citizens of the town including ladies and gentlemen numbering !J voters and 542 non-votera. This remonstrance was against granting license anywhere in the county, and alleges that there is no necessity for such license. Like petitions from all parts of the county, are on tile. As a rule these were general, and were in no case considered as a factor in determining the question. 2d. A special remonstrance, signed by 121 citizens ol the town, all of tbem. or nearly so, voters, and embracing many of the most reputable citizens of the town, alleging 1st. That neither of the applicants has met all the reiiuiremenu of the law in the mat ter of the petitions, in this tbat they are not certified to by at least 12 reputable citizens. 2d. That one of the applicants is not of good repute for temperance. 'ii. That one of the affiants to petition is not of pood repute for Temperance. 4th That the houses are not necessary for the accommodation of the public and enter tainment of travelers. This remonstrance was verified by the oaths of two prominent gentlemen of the town, who testify that the facts st f- Ttb are true, and was su:i!ciiH-iiU'd by evidence taken on rule and the depositions tiled and read on the hearing. Tne evidence was in the main against the proprietor of ore of the bouses, and involv ed the violation of the law and applicants fitness and thou;;h definitions were taten in reply aud filed ami read, the case made was not succnwuliy ausa-ercii. tint one witness testified to any violation of law by lhe other house, aud lhat was not sufficient even if true, to warrant a refusal of license, in the light of all the facts. There was aiso evidence of aa attempted combination to conil or induce the Court to change its ruling at a former term, by dosing their doors and turning out all the gnet-. including one of tue As-ociate Judges during a fuil attendance at court; this how- j evens not considered in the determination of the-e cases. They could so close and turn out their guesta after tiiey claimed to keep a public house and could with impu nity even curse the court if tbat atlordtd any sjiecial gratification. But that certain ly is no excuse for the courts violating its duties in the determination of the present applications. If by such folly they arrayed a community against themselves, it's a mat ter of their own invitation; as against the 27 citizens certifying to the necessity for li censed houses. 121 of their fellow citizens of t:ie highest rrsL-tabiuty, allege tiiat there i.,.nni. .,,.1 ... dueed; sbow that thoaKh there has been nu license siuce January Term the public, and travellers and strangers have been quite well entertained. A mere allegation of no necessity, based on merely temperance views of the question, even when made by 121 against 27, might not avail to prevent li cense, under existing laws, but when the allrjta and pnJntta are made to concur, the Court can't clse its eyes to the efl'ect the pro'jf makes oil the case even though some of the members of the court might personal ly ditler in their views of necessity. To avoid the dangtr ot deciding on arbi trary discretion, the Court looks only to the case made by the .etitious, remonstrances and evidence as required by the Act of 1873, and previous Acts, and though the town of Somerset may have iu ai! 300 votes, if the one-half of these purix-eiy remain inactive, aud take no side, neither asking fora license or remonstrating against, the Court cannot be eipoted to assume that they are either for or against, and therefore, as it views its dilty when it looks at, ana duly considers the petitions, remonstrances and evidence filer! in the cases, ami heard at the hearing, and decide the matter judicially or the case as made, it will have done its whole duty under the law, as it understands it. In this light mid the light of the rulings of the Supreme Court, we are clearly of ouin io:i the weight of evidence is largely with thtf remonstrants, and though the duty is unpleasant to the court, it must under the law refuse the l.cvuse of both applicants. Complaint has been and wiil be made that j private niterr-is are struck down by Courts refusing to grant license ; if this is so, how easily it can be remedied. Let ail the peo ple join in demanding a plain legislative ex pression and we will be relieved of Jndge made law. If our ruling aroases the peo p'.e of the countv, so that they demand a legislative expression, it will have subserv ed a good purpose, but in any event, we have determined thee cases on the petitions, remonstrance and evidence, and have put ourselves on the rec- on. so mat our ruling may oe rev.ewea. aim i.ence are conscions mat we penormea our whole duty under laws which we do not make but administer. Prr eurimn. As soon as the above rulings were read the larce crowd in the court room sought the open air, where they could better give vent to their feelings some in denouncing the court and his rulings, and others in praising him and upholding his opinions. The one question that seemed most general ly to puzzle the average layman was, why Somerset should Dot need a single licensed honse. while her neighbor, Meyersdale, had an actual necessity for five. It was produc ed in evidence before the court that durine. the year ending January 1st, lSo,over 17.(kX guests had been entertained at the two Som serset hotels, the Somerset and Glade House. It was estimated that at least 4,0O) had been entertained at the Central, making a total of over 21,000 persons entertained at the, Somerset hotels within a single year, likely more than bad been entertained by all theotber hotels in the comity durine the ,. ,rinA . . On ifeundav evening the temperance people l..r-.T' V" , "u" .-"l.T" banners. Speeches were made by Ilevs. Bash. Wakefield, Weakly, Vogel and Hon. John Cessna. The liqnor men all predict that there will be a wholesale liquor estab lishment in Somerset within a fortnight. About year ago mention was made in these columns of the arrest and trial of Gra ham l'earre, a son of the late Judge Pea re. of Cumberland, the charge against him be- in. th,t he entered the bed-room of Mrs Kirklandat the Albion hotel, Baltimore, and attempted to commit an assault npon her The jury foand mm guilty, and the case was then take to the court of appeals. That conrt on Tuesday affirmed the decision be low and the verdict stands. PwxiRAM or CaaEjtosnca asb Lj or I March for MehoBial 1ay at Somerset. J Somerset Silver Cornet Baud. , Col IS. P.
