A Legal Decision.
‘ A legal decision of some importance has been delivered in the Montreal Superior Court by Mr. Justice Johnson. The city of Montreal claimed $200 interest or ‘‘ in- creased” of a tax for non-payment at the proper time on an assessment of réal estate. The Judge held that the city could not re- cever, because the Acts of the Local Legis- lature of the Province of Quebec assuming to give powers to the corporatien to im- pose such a penalty or ‘‘ increase,” are ultra vires beyond their constitutional powers, any increase to the assessment on
account of their non-payment being neither | ——-
more nor Jess, by whatever name called, than interest; and all matters respecting interest being exclusively within the do- main of the Parliament of the Dominion. The St. John Globe fasks how is it as re- gards ‘‘ discount” for the prompt payment of taxes? Is that also ultra vires ? > 000

The Zulu Trouble. |
The sooner Sir Garnet Wolseley gets to Zululand, the better for the British arms, for the last advices from South Africa are not en- couraging. Lord Chelmsford has once more abandoned the plans which he had adopted for the future prosecution of the campaign, and has decided upon another scheme, which may or may not be found practicable. The diffi- culties of transportation are enormous and almost unsurmountable. Fuel and water are both lacking on any route that has yet been proposed. At Kambula, no fuel is to be ob. tained at a less distance than four miles. At Ingwe, there is no fuel, so that a supply must be carried with the troops to that place from Utrecht. A depot for the main body of the army has been formed on Blood River, and over one thousand tons of stores are now being transported to this depot from Helpmakaar. The distance is 49 miles, and 500 wagons are required for the service. The burning of the
forage for the animals must all be brought forward from Helpmakaar, at an enormous cost,
