#} Ba general result of the investigations in the three doubtful States by Congressional Committees is rather favourable to Mr. Ticp®zx and the Democrats and to strengthen the belief entertained before that he had been fairly elected. But it is also true that no authoritative deciâ€" sion has yet been come to. The reports of the Committees will in due time be presented to Congress, and it will rest with each body, the Senate and the House, to take such official action as may be deemed advisable. The only practical solution of the difficulty would seem to rest in the rejection of all the seriously disputed votesâ€"those of Oregon, Florida, South Caroling, and Louisianaâ€" which would give the election to Mr. Tiupzx. poses, and the existing exemptions from such taration. Oun a division, she motion of Mr: Scort was rejected by a majority of 12. It is probable. however, thai the motion was rejected because it might be considered in the nature of a " motion of wanrt of confidence " in the Government. In some other form the question will l.in; come before the House, when it is possible that a different result may be arrived at. One of the objections urged againat the motion was that the City of Toronto had taken the lead in the agitation with a view of taxikg the Government and Legislative Buildings, and that this would be a tax on the whole Province for the benefit of one municiâ€" pality, This may be so, but, as a matier affecting municipal government, we see no reason why property |owned by the Provinee should not contribute its quota of taxation. As a matter of fact, this Proâ€" vincial property, like any other property, enjoys the advantages afforded by the municipal administration of Torounto ; it receives its portion of benefit from the improvements and expenditures on the streets, from the [presence of the police force and from the existence of the water works, which _ provide protection against fire, We fail _ to _ see, therefore, what reasonable objection the Province could make to its property contributing a fair quota of revenue towards the municipal government of the city. There is no impropriety whatever in the Toronto people seeking to have the Provincial buildings included with she other taxable property. ‘There may, howâ€" ever, be a question whether the Legisla ture has the power to rescind that part of the law relating to the exemption of Government buildings and property, as it is contended: that the exemptions are based on the provisions of the Act of Conâ€" federation. But these interests are not the only ones involved in the question of aweeping away all tax exemptions. Toronto may have her own interests to serve in leaing the agitation, but the interest of Toronto in this matter is really that of the whole Province. ‘In the case of ‘Toronto, the most populous ant! wealthy municipality in the Province, we have an illustration of how the evil of exemption may _ gradually grown until it becomes so great as to demand redress. In almost every other municipality in the Province the volume ot‘ exemptions is gradually swelling, and the necessity for following the lead oi Toronto, (the natural leader in Provincial affairs) has been very generally recogâ€" nized. If Government property cannot be included in the scheme of assessment and taxation, their are yarious other elasses of property now exempt which may be included by Act of the Legislature. We fail to see any good reason why the land and buildings belonging to religious communities and Church Corporations should be allowed to go taxr free. These communities can afford to own land in parts of the city in which land is most valuable, and can see their way to erectâ€" img thereon ornate and costly structures ; and we do not think that very much greater effort would be required to contriâ€" bute the taxzes due on a fair and equitable assessment of the properties. We have no sympathy whatever with the fanciful and sentimental utterances that ‘are freâ€" quently made use of in soâ€"called discus Un EFriday last there was an incidental discussion on the tax exemption question in the Ontario Legislature. The matter came up on a motion of Mr. Scort, in amendment to the Address, to the effect that the House regretted, in‘ view of the great interest manifested in the question by the people‘ at large, that his Honour had not been pleased to make reference to the subject of the law relating to the taxation of property for municipal purâ€" ~emator GoRpoN, of (ieorgia, has tele grnph;-d to the Governor of his State that it is now known Mr. Ticomn had a major ity of votes, and that he will be peacefully inaugurated as President. _ There has hardly been any doubt for some time past that +Uncle Tioksx was fair‘y and honestly elected, but thers has been reason to apprehend that the manipulaâ€" tion of the votes by the Returning Boards of Florida, South Carolina and Louisiar:, backed by the active partizanship of General Graxt and Federal forces would eventually cheat the Demoorats out of their victory. We io not know what authority there is for a precise announceâ€" ment that Mr. Ticosx will be peacefully inaugurated ; and it is probable that Mr. Gorpon has simply given expression to a personal opini~n as to the ultimate result of the difficuity. It is true that the general result of the investizations in the Thd Times. yesterday mornin NewAdvertisements. OTTAWA, MONDAY he s. s. Polynesian Ormor: 68 & 70 Riowav Strest L B.

I wrote to Messrs, McC. & Co. asking them to renew for a few days, in order to give Mr. Reche time to reach the city, as I had wired him to come back at once; trusting that on his return matters would be arranged to their (Mc‘. & Co) satisfa tion. But the answer to my leiter was the arrival of one of the firm of McC. & Co., who still did not disâ€" cover, as stated in the Evening Star, that such a firm as Reche & Co. did not exist; and as [ am ready to prove by leading merchants of this cityfthat such a firm did exist, and that I was not a memtber of the same. Upon the representative of McC. & Co co}?ing to the store I informâ€" him that Mr. Reche was absent from the city, and placed in his bands a telegram showing the truth of my assertion, and there avd then paid him perlonnlly.gne sum of $100, (or one hundred dollars), and not by my representativeas stated in the Star.

To the Editor of THE TIMES Sir,â€"In reply to Mayor Waller‘s stateâ€" ment that my contract was a schedule of prices is quite true ; and at my orders a write has been served on His Worship to collect the just amount due me on a sealâ€" ed contract between myself and the Corâ€" tion, dated on the 25th day of g:.:uuy, 1875, and for such legal altera tions as were duly ordered in writing since that date, and for which the sealed conâ€" tract specifies the amount to be paid me, an® needs no comment.

Yours truly, THE TIMES, OTTAWA, MONDAY, JANUARY $ 1877 Proprietors. Worship to explain the actual amounts paid Booth & Murphy on the various classes of work which differed from the late Engineer‘s estimates, an | the deducâ€" tions, if any, on the same, and how much of the $45,678.U2, paid over and al ove the late Mr. Sowden‘s estimates was actually paid ou "extras " apart from the first contract. This fits too tight, and instead of coming squarely to the rcal issue, this great mathematician cOmes down with an abundance of figures which, I must say, reads well if they were only correct. Will those facts of Mayor Waller‘s stand criticism ? His Worsbip stated in his nominaticn (as reported in the city papers) that I had been paid on account of my sewer contract the sum of $30, 298 26, and in your issue of the 3rd inst. is Worship states as a fact that I have been paid only $24,448 04. _ ; By relurning to the minutes of the City Council of the 22nd of June last, and the same was published in the city papers on the following day, the City Engineer re ported that I had been paid only the sum of $27,92721. This amount includes moneys paid me for drain pipe, whish my first letter explains, and fully proves my statements. Another of Mayor Waller‘s facts in this same nomination speech was that my contract price was $32,148 48. In your issue of the 3rd inst he states, as a fact, that my contract price wss $32.041 16. Now it is quite evident from the differâ€" ence between Mayor Waller‘s assertions on nomination day, and his written stateâ€" ments as appear in your issue of the 3rd inst., that he could not possibly have given the matter the attention that he professes to give matters that he undertakes to dilate upon. Or can it be possible that the great mathematician intends to pubâ€" lish a now arithmetic to apply to His Worship‘s statements of facts and figures, and when the ratepayers subtract the figures, the facts will be non est comatious in swampo. _ _ Apologizing for the space I have occuâ€" pied, and as I am not by profession a mathematician as capable of changing the addition or subtraction of figures as Mr. Waller, yot I trust you will accord my plain statements, as I have been enabled to gather them from the records, in vindi cation of myself against the personal attacks of His Worship.
