The Recent Decision of the Supreme Conrt of the United Stuteia In Regard to Them An Important Opinion to Preserve. The following decision is important as showing the views of the Supreme Court of the United States. It is the first case that has come before the high est court in the land involving the le gality of tax sales and deeds under the Iowa revenue laws. The case was ar gued in the Supreme Court for Callanan, by Senator "Wright, of the firm of Wright Gatch & Wright, Des Moines: suritEMn court of Tin: united states OCTOIIEK TEKM, 1870. James Callanan, Jr., Appellant, 1 vs. y Michael Hurley. ) Appeal from the Circuit Court of the United States for the District of Iowa. A trcisurer's deed for lands sold for delinquent taxes in the State of Iowa if substantially regular in form is, under the statutes of that State, at least prima facie evidence that a sale was made, and if there was a bona fide sale, in substance or in face, the deed is con clusive evidence that it was made at the proper time and in the proper man ner. In a case where a tax-deed regular in form recited that the land was sold January 4th, and where the treasurer certified that the sales of land for delin quent taxes in the county began on that day. and were continued from day to day until January 1-Sth, and that ha entered all the sales as made on the 4th, it was held that a sale of land at any time during the period from the 4th to the 18th was valid, and that re cording such sale as made on the first day, though actually made later, did not impair the title. Mr. Justice Strong delivered the opinion of the Court The plaintiff below asserts title to the lands in controversy by virtue of his having entered them pursuant to the provisions of the acts of Congress, and the defendant Callanan claims to be the owner by force of taxxdeeds of the treasurerof the county of Cass, founded on alleged sales made in January, 1864. for delinquent taxes". These deeds having been placed upon record are, as the plaintiff avers, a cloud upon his title, and the object of his bill is to pro cure their cancellation. He charges that they are void for several reasons: First, that no taxes were levied upon the lands, or any of them, for the years for which they were pretended to be 1 cePfc tnat the property was not subject sold ; Second, that the taxes, if any there were, never became delinquent; Third, that there was no person authorized to receive payment of the taxes; Fourth, that there was no warrant or authority for the sale of the lands for the non payment of delinquent taxes; and Fifth, that no sale of the land for the non-payment of taxes, real or pretend ed, ever took place, but that certificates thereof were issued reciting, contrary to the truth the sale of the lands con formably to the provisions of the statutes of the State, under which cer tificates the deeds and conveyances were respectively made. A subsequent amendment of the bill charges sixthly, that at the time of the pretended as sessments and levies the lands were not subject to taxation; and seventhly, that two persons, Reynolds and Mead, (through whom the defendant claims) at and before the issuing of the cer tificates of the sale, unlawfully com bined and confederated with the de fendant for the purpose of preventing competition at the sale of lands for taxes then to be held in the county. These are all the objections to the validity of the tax-deeds which the original bill and its amendments sug gest Before examining them it will be convenient to notice the provisions of the statutes of the State respecting tax-sales, and respecting the effect of treasurer's deeds for lands sold for de linquent taxes. They are contained in the revision of 1S60, chapter forty-five. After giving directions for sales of land by the county treasurer for delinquent taxes, prescribing notice by advertise ment and providing for the cost of ad vertising, the treasurer is directed to offer separately on the day of sale each tract or parcel of real property adver tised, on which the taxes and costs shall not have been paid, and it is declared that the person who offers to pay the amount of taxes due on any parcel of land for the smallest portion thereof "shall be considered the purchaser. The treasurer is directed to continue the sale from day to day as long as there are bidders, or until the taxes are all paid, and. after all has been offered, if any portion f the lands advertised remain unsold, the sale is to be adjourned. The purchaser is entitled to a certificate of purchase describing the property and the amount of the tax,but the land may be redeemed at any time within three years from the day of the sale. At the expiration of three years, if the land re mains unredeemed, the purchaser is entitled to a deed from the treasurer, the form and effect of which are defined by the statute. We quote a part of the 784th section of the act as having a con trolling operation upon the facts of the present case. It is as follows : The deed shall be signed by the treas urer in his official capacity, and ac knowledged by him before some officer authorized to take acknowledgments of deeds, and when substantially thus exe cuted and recorded in the proper record of titles to real estate, shall vest in the purchaser, all the right title, interest and estate of the former owner in and, to the lands conveyed, and shall be prima facie evidence in all courta of this State in all controversies and suite in relation to the rights of the purchaser, his heirs or assigns, to the land thereby conveyed, of the following facts: 1. That the property was subject to taxation. 2. That the taxes were not paid be fore sale. 3. That the property conveyed had not been redeemed at the date of the deed. And shall be conclusive evidence of the following facts: 1. That -he property has been listed and assessed. 2. That the taxes were levied accord ing to law. 3. That the property was advertised for sale in the manner and for the length of time required by law. 4. That the proierty was sold for taxes as stated in the deed. 5. That the grantee earned therein was the purchaser. 0. That the sale was conducted in the manner required by law. 7. That all the prerequisites of the law were complied with by all the offi cers, except in regard to the three points named in this section, where the deed shall be prima facie evidence only. And in all controversies involving the title held under such tax deed exe cuted substantially as required by law by the treasurer, the person claiming title adverse thereto, in order to defeat the same, must show, either that said property was not subject to taxation, or that the taxes had been paid before sale, or that the property had been re-, deemed from sale according to law. And no person shall be permitted to question the title under the deed without first showing that all taxes due upon the property have been paid. ss. 784. The whole act exhibits an intention of the legislature to enforce the pay ment of taxes, by securing purchasers at tax sales in their purchases, and thus making it dangerous for owners of property to neglect payment of tixes due the State. It removes difficulties which had before existed in the way of establishing a tax title, and at the same time it works no injustice to owners of land subject to taxation. The law de termines when the taxes should be lev ied, and when they shall be paid, and it eives ample time within which to make the payment. It was under this act and in conformity with its provisions that the treasurer's deeds were made, through which the defendant beloV made his claim. They are in the form prescribed by the statute. If the act is to have any effect at all, it is plain that the deeds cut off most of the averments upon which the plaintiff bases his at tempt toobtain the cancellation heseeks. It is not open to him to aver and prove any allegation he puts forward to es tablish the invalidity of the deeds, ex- tinctly provtd. and it Is not necessary that it should be. If they were not sold until several days later, but yet while the sales were in progress, unad journed, and the treasurer certified them as sold on the opening day, it was at roost but an irregularity, which can not avail the plaintiff. It has not inter fered with his right to redeem. He suffered eight years to pass after the sale without asserting any right During all that period he paid no taxes performed no duties which he owed to the public suffered the defendant and those under whom the defendant claims to pay the taxes levied from year to year, and now, when it may be pre sumed the land has increased in value, he seeks the cancellation of the tax deeds, without even offering to redeem or to refund the taxes which the pur chasers at the sale have paid. He seeks this in the f;ve of a statute which in effect declares that irregularities shall not suffice to defeat a tax sale, and when in view of the evidence it is ex ceedingly doubtful whether there was any irregularity. In this attempt he cannot succeed. AH the questions presented in this case have been decided by the Supreme Court of Iowa, and decided adversely to the plaintiff. (Phelps vs. Meade et al 41 Iowa, 470.) The case was an attempt to set aside a tax-deed of lands sold by the treasurer of Cas3 county at the sale in January, 1804. The averments of the bill were the same as those made in this case, and the case was heard upon me evinence taken on the case now before us. The rulings of the court were that if there was a bonaflde sale in substance or in fact the tax-deed is con clusive evidence that it was made at the proper time and conducted in the proper manner. And where a tax-deedt regular in form, recited that the land was sold January 4th, and the treasurer testified that the sales of land in the county for delinquent taxes began upon that day and were continued until the 18th, and that he entered all the sales as ot the date of the commencement it was held that a sale of land at any time during the continuance of the sale was valid, and that the recording of the sale as of the first day would not im pair the title. We do not find in the unreported case of Butler vs. Delano, to which we have been referred, anything conflicting with what was decided in i'helps vs. Meade. The facts of the two cases, so far jus we can gather them from the opinion of the court in the latter, were widely differ ent The same may be said of the un reported case of Thompson vs. Ware et al. The decree of the Circuit Court is re versed, and the cause is remitted with instructions to dismiss the plaintiff's bill. COXSITM mo CURAHLK.

The first of the averments is denied in the answer and there has been no attempt to sus tain it by evidence. Besides, the statute declares that the deed shall be prima facie evidence that the property was subject to taxation. They are made af firmative evidence. The allegation of a fraudulent combination to suppress bidding at the sale is entirely unsus tained by anything in the proofs, and so is every allegation upon which the bill founds the charge that the deeds are in valid, unless it be the averment that no sale for the non-payment of taxes, real or pretended, ever took place. The treasurer's deeds, however, contain a recital that he did, on the 4th day of January, A. D. 1864, by virtue of the authority vested in him by law, at the sale begun and publicly held on the first Monday of January, A. D., 1SG4, expose to public s:de at the court-house in the county aforesaid, (Cass,) in substantial conformity with all the requisitions of the statute in such cases made and pro vided, the several pieces of real prop erty above described separately, for the payment of the taxes, interest, and costs then due and remaining unpaid on each of said peices of real property respect ively. The deeds further recite that at the time and place aforesaid the per sons to whom the deeds were made af forded the most favorable bids, and that the several pieces ot property were stricken off to them at prices bid. Now, if it be conceded that under the statute the deeds containing these reci tals are only presumptive evidence that the sales were actually made as recited the burden is still on the plaintiff to re but this presumption. And we think that instead of having rebutted it the evidence in support of the presumption greatly preponderates. We need not refer to it in detail. Suffice it to say that there is not a single witness who is able to deny that a sale was made, and only one is able to testify that ten years after 1864 he cannot recollect it while others testify affirmatively that it was made. At the treasurer's sale in January. 1064, there were large bodies of land offered, and the sale was con tinued from day to day. Whether the lands now in dispute were sold on the fourth day of that month or at a later day during the sale, is, perhaps, not dis The Talmud. Jews, Protestants, and Romanists all agree in receiving as canonical the books of our Old Testament But as the Romanists would add to these the apocryphal books, so the Jews insist on adding their oral law. They say that when the written law was given to Moses, inscribed on two tables of stone, God also gave another and verbal law explanatory of the first which he was commanded not to commit to writing, but to deliver down by oral tradition. When Moses came down from the mount, they tell us that he first repeat ed this oral law to Aaron and his sons, and then to the seventy, and finally to all the people, each of whom was ob liged to repeat it in his hearing, to in sure its correct remembrance. Just before his death, they say, he spent a month and six days in repeating it to them again ; and then, they assert, he committed it in a special manner to Joshua, through whom it was imparted toPhineas, and so on through the long line of prophets, and afterward of teachers, down to the time of Judahthe Holy, who lived in the second century, by whom it was committed to writing lest it should be lost. This work, con sisting of six books, is the famous Mish na of the Jews, which, with its Gemara, or commentaries, constitutes their cele brated Talmud, in which is compre hended all their learning and much of their religion as a people. The whole work is held by them in far higher esteem than the Bible, so much so, that they say the Bible is water, but the Talmud is wine; and they even declare that he who studies the Bible when he might read the Talmud does but waste hi3 time; and that to sin against the latter is far worse than to sin against the former. So implicit is their con fidence in this oral law, that it is almost useless to reason with a Jew out of the Old Testament; for he is ever ready with an answer from the Talmud, with the authority of which he is fully satis fied.

Gilbert "White tells a most dramatic story of a neighbor who had lost most of his chickens by a sparrow-hawk that cameglidingdown between a faggot pile and the end of his house, to the place where his coops stood. The owner, vexed to see his flock diminishing, hung a net between the pile and the house, into which the bird dashed and was entangled. The gentleman's resent ment suggested a Gt retaliation; he therefore clipped the hawk's wings, cut off his tallons, and, Gxing a cork on his bill, threw him down among the brood-1 hens. "Imagination." savs Mr. White. "cannot paint the scene that ensued; the expressions that fear, rage and re venge inspired were new, or at least such as had been unnoticed before; the exasperated matrons upbraided, they execrated, they insulted, they triumphed. In a word they never desisted from buffeting their adversary till they had torn him in a hundred pieces."
