Progressive Taxation.
Tue experiment which New Zealand is making in what may be called progressive taxation ia attracting attention. Land and improvements upon land are taxed separ- ately, improvements being exempted from
taxation when valued at less than $2500. But improvements valued at more than $2,500 are taxed at a gradual’y increasing rate until a value of $15,000 is reached, when the rate is the same as that upon land. Another progressive tax is estab- lished upon landed estates valued above $25,000, rising to over a dollar on 8 hun- dred where an estate is worth more than a million. The plan is to tax the rich more than the poor, and perhaps in no way can this be effected in a more equitable man- ner. For many years New Zealand has laid a progressive tax upon inheritances, and although this has not prevented the creation of great estates it has both checked the process of accumulation and lightened the burdeus of small property-owners. The inheritance tax has the merit of being easily collected, and with difficulty dodged.

The Behring Sea Question.
Tue arbitration of this important matter will proceed next Spring. On both sides a goodly array of counsel will be engaged. ) The United States government seems to be depending « great deal upon its strength iu
this respect. The New York Sun says:
«The Hon. Edward J. Phelps, in chief, as- sisted by Messrs. Carter, Blodgett and Williams, aided by son-in-law Lansing of the immediate domestic circie of the present thrifty secretary of state, and abetted by the entire legal staff of the state department, the whole working force of the department of justice, and the able jurisconsults of the treas- ury, not to mention two or more lawyers re- tained in London, and others of whom the Sun knoweth not,—such is the imposing array of twenty, thirty ur forty regular and special counsel now engaged in getting ready to argue
we «hich, as every intelligent man knows, is foredoomed to failure on every one of the points submitted for adjadication !”
The Sun concludes :
‘*Meanwhile what becomes of the main ques- tion, the preservation of the fur seal, so valu- able to this country and to the civilized world ?
“The seal is lost sight of in the splash and spume raised over the preparation of legal jauibbles with which t» put through as glori- ously as possible a possible case to its inevit- able failure. Until this elaborate farce of arbitration is acted to its end, the main ques- tion must wait.
“And when the decision has been pro- nounced against us at Paris on the poiats fore ‘mulated ip the amezing treaty to which Gen Harrison and the Republican senate consent- ed, in what position shall we be to take up successtally this main question of the protec- tion of sea! life against poachers in Behring Sea and in the North Pacific.
**The seusible course weull be for our gov- ernment to take immediate steps for a prac- tical international arrangement to protect the seals, and to allow the ‘‘American case” at Paris to go by default, even if forty retaining fees are thereby furfeited.”
—It is stated that the votes of the teliers are not counted in making up the record of a Sritish parliamentary vote. As there are two on each side and as the speaker does not vote, there must have been only five absentees from the division of Thursday night. The house is composed of 670 members and 660 voted. 7--ere
—When Robert Lowe, afterwards Vis- count Sherbrooke, became Chancellor of the Exchequer he wrote these pathetic lines, which, as the London Speaker says, reveal 4 side of his character which was not conspicuous in the eyes of the world :

Ambition has naught left her to acquire, Success is come! But, ab, it comes too late.

VESSEL, AND CREW RESCUED. A GALLANT DEED!
ad
A heavy northeasterly gale, which has been blowing for two or three days past along our shore, increased on Frilay last to such degree as to cause our fishing fleet to scurry for safety inside the harbor. All were not so fortunate, however, for about 4 p. m. the sch. Merry May, (reorge McKay, master, from Pictou, bound for this port with a cargo of coal, in the effort to make the harbor, was thrown upon the
bar in the midst of the _ breakers, in a position to endanger the safety of the vessel! and the lives of her crew. The
break water was, by this time, covered by a crowd of spectators, who watched with intense excitement the unavailing efforts of the crew to free their vessel from the dan- gers that surrounded her. The boat which hung from the davits astern was smashed by the heavy sea continually breaking over the vessel, and the fragments washed upon the beach. At length the moving spirit in all emergencies of the kind on our beach, Mr, William Carpenter, foreman fur H. M. Churchill, Esq., called on his crew of hardy and fearless fishermen, and, incit- ing them by both precept and example, started through the heavy surf in one of Mr. Churchill's seine boats tothe rescue of the imperilled mariners, which was accom- plished about 7 p. m. The captain was the last man to leave the ship.
Very much credit isdue Mr. Carpenter and his crew, also to Captain Gauthier who steered the boat through the heavy surf, for their arduous and perilous labor on this occasion.
Ac this writing the gale has abated in some measure, and as the vessel is now lying in an easy position the hope is that when the sea goes down the cargo may be taken out and the vessel floated on the returning tide,

JIM CAPTURED),
Officer Carroll, of Picto 1,
=
Captures the Man who is Suppo: ed
to have Killed Steadman, the * Moncton Policeman.
—
“Jim” was ¢aptured Friday evening | ist before dark, by officer Peter O. Carr ll, who, unknown to any but a few of he police cfticials, started out on a little de: ec- tive busiaess on his own aecount.
Mr. Carroll accompanied another offi ser with a prisoner from Nova Scotia to L or- cheater on Thursday, and reached Mone on that day. He read the various storie: as given in the newspapers, and came to he conclusion that ‘*‘Jim’” was the mans en by Mr. Steeves near Coal Branch the f{ rst of the week, and that he had not yet zot very far. To Ald. Forbes, a membe of the police committee, he unfolded his ; lan for the capture. Ald. Forbes, who |.ad known Carroll in Pictou, rendered all the assistance possible, and Mr. D. M. Wil ur, who had previously been sworn in a. a special to engage in the search, j ined C ar- roll. Before midnight Carroll and Wil sar were both thoroughly disguised and re dy tu take the Quebec express for Rogersvi le, with the result as given in the fullowing despatch, received in Moncton about seen o'clock on Friday evening :
Harcocvrt, Aug. 12, J. Temple Forbes :
Arrested Jim; on 38 for Moncton. cheers for Pictou,
Ti ree
P.O CaRRoL.
There was a large crowd at the rail\ray station on the arrival of No. 38, notw th- standing the downpour of rain, and there was a great crush to see the prisoner wien he was taken off the train. He was tur- ried to a hack and taken to the police | ta- tion, where another crowd had gathered to geta lock at **Jim.” On arrival at che police station Jim’s head was dressed by Dr. Botsford. He had a bad cut over -he right eye and his nose was swollen and |is- figured, the result of coming in contact ¥ ith Peter Carroll’s knuckles. The news that the prisoner had been brought to tc wn spread rapidly, and many expression: of pleasure at the capture were heard on -he street.
MR. CARROLL'S ACCOUNT OF THE ARRI'ST
Peter O. Carroll’s statement of the ar est and the route taken by himself and Will ur, before capturing the much sought for “Jim” is as follows: We left Moncton Friday a. m. about 1 15 on the express for Rogersville, arriving there about 2 46. We walked back on the track to Kent Junction, where we boarded the train and came di wn to Harcourt. There we learned tht a suspicious looking character had entered the house of a Mr. Timpson down at | ass River. A dozen eggs, a psir of shoes nd a hard hat had been stolen. We grt a team and drove down to see the pe ple robbed. They described the circumsta: ces and supposed it wasatramp. From th:re we went to a neighbor's named Ja nes Thompsoa, who informed us that a tr mp siept in his barn Thursday night. F om there we tracked the suspecc, his foote: aps being plain in the mud after the prev >us night’s rain. Shortly after leaving Tho ap- son's we hired a team, Thompson gi ing with us to drive and show us the vay. Some five miles out along the road he foc tsteps we were tracing turned off int» a house. I said
“BOYS, I THINK HE'S HERE,
I will go in and see.” I then left Mee irs. Thompson and Wilbur in the wago n at che gate and went tothe door of the hoi ss. fhe man of the house, Robert Carter, ras sitting close to the door on the right h nd side. Isawthe man whom I suspa ced was ‘‘Jim’ facing me about tive feet fi om the door. I asked the man of the hous: if he had seen 4 man pass his place in he last half hour. I had my eye on Jim: od noticed him start up, but I took the | re- caution to be on my guard for a surp ise and be ready if he attempted to drav a a revolver. I scanned the suspect and aw that his description answered *‘Jim’s” ta nicety: Carter, in reply to my quest ion said he had not seen any suspicious look ng character pass his place that morning. | edged in and stepped quickly to the sid: of my man and asked him where he belong 2d. He replied that he belonged about rine railes from there, and was working witl a man onafarm. I kept my eye on him ; nd said to Carter, ‘Do you know this ma: ?” to which he replied that he did not. I ti en asked the man of the house to tell the n en > the wagon to come into the house. With that
JIM PUT HIS HAND IN BIS POCKET
very quickly. [I noticed the movement ; nd grabbed him by the wrist, but not bef re the revolver had been pulled half way 0 at. 1 dealt him a blow that kaocked him agai ist the wall and with another I sent tim sprawling to the floor, face downwards, 1is hand still clinging to the revolver und>r- neath him. I was on top of my man :nd was on the point of drawing my revol er and putting it to his ear, but on sec od thought I put it back in my pock et.
1 hit him a third time and he sung out “That will do. I vill give up.” If picked him up and fied
him out the docr, but he still clung to his re- volver. (ace outside I grabbed his revol ver and took itaway from him. Wilbur tl en came up and I handed him the revolver. He held a revolver to Jim’s head while | pat che handeuffs on him. There were no shots fi) :d. We searched him and found three rez 18, wo caps, one silk and the other a fire. aud-aft plaid. Besides this he had the r- volver I took from him, which is a Bos -on Bulldog No. 38 calibre and contains ive rounds, Besides the five shots in the revo! ver he had three cartridges in hie pocket. A. :er he was arrested ha said to me, “BIG FELLOW, SHOOT ME,
I will be hung anyhow.” He also added i
shot the man he didn’t know it and was « cr
tor it. “Jim” said, “I would give my he te blood if the man was living alihough I do .x0t know him.” He admits having fired {our random shots on the night he escaped. He siid he wished they had blown his brains « ut for it he shot Steadman he was willing to be hang, but if he didn’t kill him he didn’t y ant to be hung. The revolver fouad with him he sail, was the only one he carried. Jim old his captors he had spent about $250 with -:he girls at the house. No money was found on the prisoner. The prisoner wis warned nc . to say too much that it might be used in evi-
he
dence against him, but he said to Carrol, “If I could have got my revolver half an inch more out of my pocket I would have fixed you, but you were too quick for me,” TT. i

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
Mr. Reddin's Fine.
takes to deplere in print that a wrong re port has been published about himself, he should be careful not to circulate a false report about one of his ‘‘ brother” druy- gists. I am the unfortunate being to whom Mr. Reddin refers as having been fined $1,62 for what he calls ‘‘the same offence.” As a matter of fact there is no parallel between the two cases. While 1 am sorry that Mr. Reddin had to pay a fine of one hundred dollars, I feel bound in self de- fence to correct his misstatement. Mr. Reddin was tined because he himself sold a bottle of brandy without having a doctor's order~—a breach of the new liquor act. I was fined the mimimum fine of $1 62 bs- cause one of my clerks, on a certain Sun- day, before this act came intu power, in my absence and in direct disobedience ci my explicit orders to the contrary, sold some rye whiskey to a man who made the same professions as did Mr, Reddin’s cus- tomer. This was a breach of the old Lord’s Day Act. There certainly was an illegal sale, for which a tine had to be imposed ; the employer is liable for his clerk’s actions so I was the one tu be fined not the dis- obedient clerk; but His Honor the Stipen- diary Magistrate, mghtly recognizing that while legaily liable | was personally abso. lutely innocent, imposed the nominal fine which so disturbs Mr. Reddin, whs has probably not risen in public estimation by having written his letter which appeared in your paper of this date. Yours, etc., Lawrence W. Watson, 13th August, 1842.
