Gen. F. 4. Drake, of Centrrille. Iowa, and Mr.

H. Hill, if Keokas, Iowa, wbo are at present In this City, arj greatly interested In the maUrial and political prosfcerity of Missouri, and both have had peculiar faeihtiee In observing the coarse of events In that State! and especially of noting the gradual Steps taken toward the repudiation of county and township bflfcds, which has now culminated in a conflict of authority between the Federal and coun ty courts. Tills conflict resulted, on Wednesday, an order Issued br Jndge Dillon, cf the Unitci States Circuit Court, sitting at St Lonia holding Judges Bown, Gale, and Pparkt. of Scotland County. In contempt for failing to enforce the payment of taxes levied to pay the interest on tae county debt In accordance with a former order, of the Federal court The three County Jodcls, so the Marshal reDorted, had fled from Memphis, the county seat in order to avoid being served with the court mandate, and the Marshal was.ltherefore, unable to serve the papers.

A. J. Haker. who represents tbe holders of several Of the Stotland County bonds, made a motion that a now rule be ordered, and that It be sufficient for the Order of the eburt to be left at the usual places of resi 4nce of the I udzes of the County Court, Instead of their being sqrved personally. This point will be decided by JnVlge Dillon before further proceedings Are taken in vie matter Oen.

Drake and Mr. Hill gave to a TiIKT reporfer, yesterday, a fall history the events which have led to the proceedings be fore Judge I't'ion. Oen. 1 The bonds subscribed for by the counties if Missouri have been declared valid by the Supreme L'ourt of the United States. The tax- pavers of thel several counties still refns ng to psy the coupons, suits were broosht before Jndge Dillon.

in the I'nitid States Circuit Conrt. Judgments Were obtained, bnt the Counties had no money to Satisfy the juttjments. The Connty I'ourts refused to make a lewy of taxes to pay tbe judgments, and. ef course, the only recourse of the bondholders was to go againl before Judge Dillon. The Circuit Court of tbe nited States tbeti issued a mandamus brderlngthe L'cranty Courts t)levy tasrs to meet the Interest due on their bonds.

The tax wat levied, and was pin for collection In the of the County Col! ctors. The people of the different ifountios wh eh were interested at onee organized themselves into what they called ami tnxparers' associations. They notified the attorneys of the State, by pu ilieauons in the different newspaper, that, if they nttenijited to talk to the County Courts ar to the 1 rilctors In reference to their ax they troulddoso it the peril'of their lives. They went to the editor 1 of the newsoapers and threatened to Withdraw tl eir patron.tge unless the journals indorsed their riews tn repudiation, and to the shame pi tne editirs or Missouri. 1 must sav tnat' they wiieele.

I Into iline with surpri.ing alti-nty. J' rvas talking to one of them one of tbe Memphis editors onl; a few days ao, and he said to rie. 'What can I do The people demand repudiation. I depend 01 the people for my living. I have no choice in tli but to seem to atree with them, though at nrt I despise the whole business, and believe that i will end in ruining our State.

The Anti-Tax-pa ers' Association slso notififl the Collector that they attempted to lew on any prrp trty in satis ation of this tax they "would do at the r.l of heir lives. The situation was a puiiar fine, and on which t-nuld only exist in cr hi one of th extreme Southern Mate." i Did the Collecacrs attemt to levy on anv pron-rty 1 They mi lie a request to be allowed to lew. and -how tbut ri ended can best be told bv" reference to a sin ne instance. In Scotland County tho Collector all umptod to levy upon hordes and other personal ierty. for the purpose of collecting tl Coupon tasi s.

The people hud paid sli the other taxes, and a 1 they objected to was the pavment of the interect the couiitv bonds. They refused to aiiow the illector seize anv of their property, but all agreed to give him a delivery bond, and to deliver the property called for into' his hands, at Memphis. tV county seat, ou a certain dav.

and the owner hid ft cents for the animal. At tbe same time the mob gave the bystanders to understand thut anv man who bid against hiin 3id so at the per. 1 of his lite. The Col-h etor took no bid. knoeked down the horse, the owner paid 1 is 5 cents, and led the auimnl away amid deafening ilr.

from the frowd. That was the way ill which pro pert was sold taxes to pay the interest on thi county bonds of Missouri. This mob Or these ul.ttors. as they called themselves, required erer mun in the assemblage' to wear a white ribbon, and hey demanded that -verv business man around the sonare in which the was held shonld hang out a white ilac in tolteu of indorsom-nt i of their action. There Was but one business house hi the squar brave enouch to def tho mob anil refuse to hauc out trie white That was the Scotland unty Hank.

The mob which perpetrated this outrage and defied the 'power of the 1'nitcd Stat' courts was hut one of a number in different conn: los of the State. It evidently knew that it would be 1 ustained by the State in its act ion. as. in fact it was. hut, a short time afterward, the latnrc passe 1 a law in relation to the lew ins and collecting of to its.

That law provided that the county vourtb shoul 1 have power to lew taxes for the payment of inte on the State debt, for State purposes and forscho and county purposes, but should have jo bower to levy a tax for any other purpose utfless bavingfirst the State ireuit Court of the tireuit in wl ieh tbe connty is situated, and secured an order fro ru that court to make the levy, and any tounty conr making a levy contrary to this law and any ofli er attempting to collect a tax so levied ga'nst the irovisions of this set. was made liable to-a fine of and to imprisonment. This is the law which as declared Unconstitutional bv Judge Dillon at St Louis, the day hefore vesterdaV. But Whether it le unconstitutional or not, its "passage Shows thai the Legislature of Missouri ia in full Sympatby nth the repudiation schemes of the people, and of the county eourts. liy the provi-Slons pf the act.

The fact is, the tendency An Missouri is to repudiate." 5 Mr. Hiil- Yes and tnis tendency is driving oat the best nail of the population of the State. It is Affecting all buainess Interests.

If it is not checked soon tbe rei ult. will be tbat the better part of the Citizens of 1 lissonri will leave the State, and imml-gration thit ler will cease. It Uforcinzemigrants from the Last am I from the far West to pass by Missourt and to go tc Kansas and Nebraska, to a couatrv not nearly as gc od as Missouri, but where law and order twevall. In all the counties where this element of repudiation exists, business Is paralyzed, property is depreclatini eapltal refuses to enter, and that which S. already mere is trying to pet out.

If the United States couits are not obeyed, what safety has a-y man in loar Ing his money I If counties can renu diate their bonds, may repudiate their loans. Cat iltalists are naturally avertf to loaning any more ra oney in Missouri until a better feelin prevails there with regard to the payment of honest debts.

Th whole movement is simply and rnrelv a rebellion ai ainst the General Government a de-Banceof tie United States courts, aad as such it should be tieated.

CHEAP TRANSIT IX KE IT-JERSEY.

A MEETING OF ECBL'EBAN RESIDENTS APPOINTMENT OF A COMMITTEE TO CONFER tVITH RAILIiOAD MANAGERS. A well-attended meeting of the New-Jersey Association was held yesterday afternoon at No. 17 Cortlandt-street to consider the beat meant of nrgins and accomplishing the Improvement of existing transit facilities for passengers between this City and the towns and cities of New-Jersey ncsr by. Henry J. Yates, Msyor of the City of Newark, was called to the ehair, and Mr.

William O. McDowell acted as Secretary. Chairman Yates, in a brief address, stated the objects of tbe meeting, after which Mr. McDowell tpoke at great length. Ke said there were 'i lines of railroads converging on tbe New-Jersey shore of the-harbor toward this City, and there were sufficient n.eana of rapid transit for people living in New-Jersey, but that the railroad charges were too high for single rates.

Although tbe commutation rate a established ere liberal enough. It they were payable daily, taere waa a large class of persons who could not iw avail themselvcsof them, because they eould not advance so much money as was required to pay for a year's travel at one time. As an instance of what might be done, he said the Eastern Kailroad of Maasachusetts. running to Boa-ton, a few years ago begtn the running of working men's trains to aud from Lynn, a distance of 'i miles, the fare being only 5 cents for the whole or any part cf the trip. The first train was run in 1 The next year, one train alone carried dnrlne the year 'JGO, 560 passengers, and the net profits were $7 Ml per trip.

Mr. McDowell offered a resolution, which was adopted, providing for the appointment of a committee of in per-ons to confer with the representatives of the different railroad companies whose roads terminate at Jersey City or on the harbor, with a view to reaching some conclusion to enable the citizens of New Jersey to avail themselves of a system of cheap and rapid transit to anil from New-York. Messrs. Coffey, of liackensack Inglis, of I'aterton Dong-lass, of Dellevne PeJdio. of Newark, and other gentlemen addressed the meeting, urging the views exnrese.d by Mr.

McDowell and asking for later trains on tbe railroads, as well as for tbe running of Sundav trains. The meeting adjournea, subject to the call of the committer of 10 appointed to confer with the railroad managers. WAS JAMES OAIR KILLED? WHAT CAME OF A DIlCNKES' BRAWL A MAN DIES FROM A FRACTURED BKXLL. James liair, of N. 240 West Sixteenth-street, died yesterday from injuries received during a drunken brawl, which took place during the early part if last Sunday morning.

On Saturday night Gair, Oeorge W. Eastman, of No. 68 Eighth-avenue. and William Mooner. of No.

37 West Forty third-street. went on a spree, and they nil got very drunk. They spent the night in drinking, and at an early hour on Sunday morning the three men, much intoxicated, went to No. 43 West Korty-third-stroet. to call upon William Mooney'a brother.

Hugh F. Mooney, who. together with William, Eastman, and John Clark, live in the boarding-house kept at that number by Frank Clark. John's brother. Willinm Mooney and Eastman found their way to their rooma.

and they left Gair etaggerinif abont the baliways. While doing so he made a gret deal of noiae, and aroused the ire of John Clark. He left bis room and ijutrreled with Gair in the hall. In defending himself, (lair made a movement which John Clark sava he believes was an attempt to draw a pistol. Clark went inko his room, and armed himself with a heavy whip.

He taised an alarm, which brought the tiro Moonevs and Eastman to the scene. Gair was then set upon bv the three, and during the light which followed John Clark is alleged to have struck iair three times on the head with the butt-end of the whip. Hugh F. Moonev is said to have been at the time armed th a flat-iron, but there is no evidence that he struck Gair with it Gair fell to the floor under the and his assailants lett him there and went to their rooms. Next morning Gair was tound in the ba-semmt of the same building, insensible and covered with blood.

He was removed home and placed under the care of a physician, but he did not recover consciousness, and died yesterday morning. The Police of the Sixteenth Precinct were informed of Gair's condition on Mondav night, and tapt. Kyan sent Detectives Cairns and Malarky to investigate the matter. They learned the above-named facts, and arrested the two Mooneys. Eastman, and John lark.

When Gair died yesterday Coroner Flanagan toolc charge of the ense and the prisoners were turned over to him and he remanded them to await tho result of the in.juest. Coroner Flanagan made an examination of air's body, and ascertained that he died from fracture of the base of the skull, bat it could not be learned how it was caused. The prisoners claim that it was caused by Gair falling d'jwn the basement stairs. EOLICE REFORM. WHAT A SEROBANT OF THE FORCE SATS ABOUT THE POLICE COMMISSIONERS.

"A creut deal of the abuse heaped on the Police of thus City said a Sergeant of an up town precinct last evening, is caused by the ignorance of the general public as to what constitutes the duty of a policeman, and by the incapacity of the Commis-sioners now in charge of the department. The fact is that we do not dare to do our whole duty, cspe-cially in the case of persons who have any political i.illttence whatever. The complaint of any blackguard who has a friend in the person of a bar room politician is sure to be entertained against us by the Commissioners, whose main object seems to be, rot to secure emelent Police service in the interest of the citizens, hut to curry favor with the politicians and hangers-on of the Municipal authorities. The purpose of this is obvious. They want to retain their own places and draw their salaries as long as posaihle.

and thev rare nothing for na tureof the means by which they secure this oud The result is perfectly natural. Under such management the Police force Is bound to become ineffi-eient. if not absolutely demoralised. Captains and Sergeants and patrolmen are as anxious to retain their positions as the CommUsloncrs are to bold their own. and unless they are perfectly sure that thev can do their duty with sajety to themselves they neglect to do iu Mayor Cooper may not be Influenced by the purest motives in the world in his war on tbe Hoard of Police Commissioners but if he removes the present heads of the department he will do a great thing for the Police service of this City.

Hia appointments of their successors may not be all that ronld be wished, but he eertain'y cannot appoint anybody who will less efficient than the present Commissioners, and the chances are that for a timo at least, the new board will fulfill I's du tics with something like fairness, arid the disDlsy of something ot executive If the Police service of this lily is to be improved, tne good work must begin at the fountain head, in Mullwrrj--street' CAM1LLO DOXXARUM31A SUICIDE.

Donnarumma fretted over what he "-ailed the utter and irreparable rum of his home until his mind became vislnfy affected. His wife and daughter did a 1 thetr power for him. but he kept faiang gradually. During Mondav night he seemed eV peciai.y anxious to be left alone.
