At the time when thoFodoral Conatitu. tion WM adopted municipal government in America WM a very aimnpio affair , and WM munriged with ea.o and OCOflOmy through local officer. , who provided for the making anti repairing of roada , Iook2d after disorderly charactora , abated local nufeance. , a11t levied rates for the tow and ciniplo public noed8. Wimoii Limo growing Polmulatlon of a particular locality appeared to need larger powers of local government , the Legielaturo granted thorn , hut they often involved little more than the holding of faira fl8 a m.aiis of building up local trado1 the inatitution of a local court for the trial of petty ca.es , a few implo precautiona ngaiii.t tires , tim employment of watchmen , provmaion for the atreote , and authority to levy Laxca under tory narrow roetrictioni to meet the corporate oxponace for thoao purpoeoa. Stto government waa moro complicated , but it a8 vaatly leia so than it has be. come since. Chanoa , the moat ofwhich ha'o taken place within fifty ycara , have made every. thing dilForont . The railroad has como for good and for evil , and hai diaplacod no only the old atag.coach , but t. a l2rgo extent alno the win for trade and iravol of the common roads. The itate and ita municipalitioi provide the common highway and keep It in rqpamr , and it 800MB therefore to be within themr author. ity if not their duty , now that the railroad ha. become the chief conlenmenco of travel and trumnaportation , to provide timat aI.o. The tjio of coal gas baa b.como common for illuminatint purpoaea , and time proper police of all urban coinmunitioe requirea that the authorities ehould provide it , or something equivalent. ' or bettor , for public atreet.e and places. The telegraph and the telephone are to iome extent .uporceding the poit.office , and arc quite ae much a public necessity. The advance in sanitary icienco makes us acquainted with the daner of impor. feet city e-arage , and of impure water , and wo ar compelled to abandon the town.pump nnd to brim' horn a diatance an abundant supply of ' pure water for domestic and public use. Wi also see the notessity of giving to the cit7 popul. ation the opportunity of breathing pure air in parka which are shaded with trees and refreshed with fountains. Hero are imiorthnt public wants , every one of which is expensive , and must be provided for , if at all , at a cost of taxation which to our frugal ancestors would hare seemed almost like confiscation. T11 CUSTOM. When a public imoed is thus discovered or felt the first question often is wiiether it shall be met by time government direct. ly , and at ita own expense , or wjiether the franchise of providing for it shall be conferred upon individuals , with the priv- 'hugo of making it a source of profit. The former is the method which apparently is most consistent with republican inati- tutlons , f9r It grants no favors , and does not complicate individual with govern. mental affairs. But in practice it is found subject to very serious objections. We know what some of these are , for they have boon confronting us for many yearsand subjecting us sometimes to dis. aster and disgrace. The cost leads to great debts , amid these are commonly call. edreat calamities. Time management of railways , 1ightnin works7 the telegraph , or the telephone is a businose , requiring in tloso who take it up not only a scion. tific preparation and training , but also the annie attention , care , prudence , economy , and circumspection which in ally Private business are the requisites of success. Whether in the hands of a municipality - nicipality such a business will be subject. od to time proper management must depend - pond , directly or remotely , upon the an- tint elections , Those , witemi honestly coii- ducted , with exclusive regard to tue PrOPer - or municipal issues , are by no nmeans ccv- tam to bring to the front muiemi of business energy amid capacity amid wimon they do , arc not sure to put timoin in tim places most suited to their abilties. But when iIiUfliCilal elections are , as how , conduct. ed upon National issues , with which they have iio concern whatever , we mimay take it forgrmumtod that the majority of those who seek anti obtain the offices will not be mcii tlitinguislied for their busiiicss qualities , or who have boon found suc- cesiful in time mimnnagomnont of their own afFairs. Time public woiks of States and cities arc , therefore , likely to fall into the hands of those who will imot muanage them with skill or with high busimiess ca lacitY. But what is worse is , that so bug as time ? ractico continues of immaking mnummicipal oflices amid. places time spoils of party warfare , it must , .bo expected amid will certainly happen , timat time domimmaut larLy or its kcal lenders will Inanage frommm time control of public works to do. nyu profits for themselves at time expense of time commimunity There soemmis there. fore , to be strong if hot controliimg run. soils. wioiicvor time supply of a public convenience can assummme time forimi of a private amid commtinuous business , for per. mnitting it to take timat formmi amid for grant. ing to individuals time mmocusary fraimcimise for the PurPose.

Rut timey receive fromn time I State mony other franchises and privil. egos. They are permitted , as has been said , to imava the ski of the eminent do. main , and to occupy pimhihlo streets and places. Sometime. timoy arc favored in the matter of taxation ; somnetimmics the power to tax is employed to aid them ; and always there are exceptional rules of police for their conveniemmco arid protec. tion. All these am. special favors which they receive from the State to enable them to set up amid carry on with profit their business as common carriers ; and the inducement- riot the right - to gratmt them must be found in time fact that th.y mmvi created to subserve public ends , It is quite certain that they could be given power to interfere with private property on no other ground whatever. We have , then , railway companies existing as common carriers , and subject to the common law obilgation to make ty reasonable charge. . But what arc reasonable cimargos ? Itessoimablo prices in guimeral mire such prices na are determined by deimmand and competition , and timoy do not necessarily hose their character as reasonable , because under time pressure of demand and in the absence of compoti- tioii they become very profitable. if , therefore , a railway corporation is to ho regarded as occupying in all respects time position of a comnmnomm law carrier , large profits will not necestarily determimao its charges to he unreasonable. But when thin compamiy receives from tiio State special rivilcgos and graimte of power , on time undorst.anding that these are confer. red in the public interest and to subserve Public ends , it is notby any means certain that its profits may not justly be used as a tent of the reasonableness of its charges. Time clmarter in grantI for time mutual benefit of the state and time corporatora ; and , while it contemplate. reasonable returns to the latter in'reatni.nt , it cannot fairly be understood to contoni- Pinto anything more. In determining what are such returns , all the risks to which Limo invostmdnt is subject are to be taken into time account ; and it is obvious timat these are much greater than tim risk which attends time loaning of money on security. But charges can only be rogu. latod for time future , and timismust neces. aariiy be done , either by the company itself or by the State , upon estimates if the business likely to be don. and its cost. That the company could not bo exclusive judge in doing thu evemi at the common law line already boon seen ; and , as no third power can intervene except by mutual consent , it seems to followof necessity that theStimto may limit profita as well as ciiarges. The judicial decisions go to this extent , that when the State cetablishos a maximum of charges these charge are to be deemed prima facia at least rerionablo. A D1T1ZitNCfi. Time case of corporations which are createdto servo public ends in now ways and by newzneans ofnew inventions and d1coverioa difThr fronithatbf ratijiad companies in this.that their busineasbe. ing new , duties and obligations of except. . ional character have not been prescribed for thema by thocomon law. A telegraph company , fir example , is not a common carrier , and therefore does not comb Under - der the rules which control the carrier's business. But there is precisely time asmue reason why the State should regulate - late lie business and keep its charges within the limits of reason that applies to the business of railways. The telegraph exists only by permission if the State , and is only constructed by the aid of time eminent domain. Time main object in granting the aid is to promote time public convenience and welfare by means of tote- graph as a public agency , but incidentally - ly and as of consideration for its services to the public , the company is expected tea a profit forIts members. If the charges that are to produce this profit may be urn- posed at discretion time State is at the mercy of the agent it has created ; the main purpose is subordinated to the mci- deliLah. There can never be aay implica. tion Limit this was the intention in any grant for a public purpose. A fair and reasonable use of the grant must always be understood ; and obviously what the pub. lic shall pay for time conveniences which time grant secures for it is a matter of the highest moment. It is just as much within the proper police authority of the State to keep a telegraph company from abusing ta powers in the matter of charg. 09 aS it 15 to prevent other abuses. And this may bo done in strict accord with the principles of the common law and by vir- turo of powers which are inherent imi ivory sovereignty. FaANduzsxs : But to grant such a franchise is to give a special privilege which presumably has pecuniary value. It ii therefore to prefer somne citizens , who are rondo the recipients if time grant , over citizens in goneraland ; timough timis is unavoidable , it is in sonic 801130 invidious , Iii many cases , also , tue privilege from its nature must be ox- clusivcand ; we mire to have porsorma carry. ing on a busimioss as it public agency , with time ptblio as a cuatommmer , but without time coimmpctitiomi which , in time case of ordi. nary business. is supposed to be time wimolo protection against extortionate do. imiands.

It has bee , ' immposcd mmii- dcv the influence of a fear thtc without it not only were corporations likely to be. conmo too powerful for elToctual control , but ala. that the State was in danger of stripping itself for their benefit of cisen tial powers. Tim rownit To REOULLTIICIIANOES. There are still some charters , however , tlmat , having leen gramitoil without the condition , are not subject to repeal or aniomidumont at time legislative will ; thorn are also immiportamit frammchmises in time hmamids of umicorporated persons , Amid 1mm ox amnining time State power to regulate cimanges , it acermis necessary to commaider it , first , as it would exist at the common law ; second , under charters not repeal- able or amendable ; and , third , under charters which are subject to legislative control. First-Of the corporations serving pub. hic ends time most important are railways. These are chartered that they may estab. hish time business of carrying for hire the property and the persons of those who may desire that service. This is a busi' ness well known to the common law , and has bag been recognized as having a semi-public character which made it aim exception to private business in general. The law permitted persons to assumne the character of common carriers only upon certain conditions , ons of which was that timey should carry impartially for all per. Sons. And another condition was that they should carry property at reasonable rates , and in the absence of special bar. gain time law , when necessary , undertook to determine what might be reasonable rates under the circumstances. But , subject to timeas and a few other condi. tions , any one might ofFer his servises as a public carrier ; he needed no State per. mission for the purposo. And no doubt he might build a railroad and operate it in his busimmess if ho could purchase for his track a right of way ; but he would operate It under the same conmmnon law conditions which other public carriers rnustebueyo. He would , therefore , be under the restriction that his sharges should be reasonable. Second-Where charters exist which have beengrantedwithont the reservation of the power. to amend or : reie i , the Stt6 must abide by the' grant , and , if it was improvident , macat suffer the conse- quonces. All that can be done is to see that the incorporators themselves observe the conditions of the charter according to its : true intent , and , if they fail to do so , to ferfoit it. This is time rule of constitutional - tutional law , and it is also time rule of public honor and integrity. Charters , however , are not often their owa suflicient interpreters ; and the question of constructions iii respect to the power to make charges and accumulate profits Is often troublesome. The grant of this power is sometimes subject to a maximum limit ; and when that is the case nothing which observes time limit can be deemed abuse. But more often the grant is either silent on the subject of charges -in which case the corporation by impli. cation would be empowered to fix them- or it gives the power to the corporation in general terms and prescribes no maximum. In the first of those cases the right of the State to restrict corporate charges is unqimestiomiable. In the second , though Ion" ' amid earnestly contested , it is now we'll settled. The ground on which it is affirmed is , that the State , in conferring upon the corporation the right to charge for the services rendered to the public , without expressly abdicating the power of control , must be understood to have reserved it. All corporate grants are to be strictly construed , and it must always be assumed that the State proposed - posed to give nothing which It has not given in express terms , and that the ? rantoos have bargained for amid secured in express terms everything they were to have. A railroad charter , therefore , which authorizes the company to establish such rates for time convenience of persons and property as it shall from time to time determine by its by-laws , confers the power subject to time higher authority in time Statu to regulate the rates itself if the circumstances shah seem to deimmmid its interposition.

The steamuiiiip City of New York , which arrived from Sidney on the 7th inst. , brought to this port among its liv. lag freight fifty Imoad of Australian sheep , imported by J. B. Haggin. At Limo first glance itwouid seem like "carrying coals to Newcastle" to bring sheep from far. away Australia to California , but a brief explanation of the reasons for so doing will at once show time importance of time undertaking. Australia , as many are aware , is one of the greatest wool.pro- ( lacing lands in the world , in fact , wool is the leading staple of that great island continent. The umriginal flocks of those colonies are believed to have- boon deny. ed from those of George JV. which in their time wore the wonder of England's yeomanry. Upon this foundation the Australian sheep owners have , with care and persistence , bred a distinct class of sheep , more closely resembling the Spaa. ish than time French menino. The Aus. trahiana have in times past imported sheep from France , Saxony amid England , while our Vermont-raised flocks , the highest staimdard of the American wool producers , have contributed fresh blood to reinvigorate the Australian sheep. Particularly in thatcountry has the breeding - ing stud.aheep been carefully managed and the result is , as Mr. Haggin believes , that time Australian sheep are to-day for wool.producing purposes superior to those of Califonmmia. Their wool is free from grease and has therefore less dirt in the fleece , a matter of great moment when it is censidored timat wlmero ummwashed wool is transported for long . distances the freight charges arc considerable. Again , the wool of the Australian is of bett.r quality and soils at a bettor price ; it is not so close and the fiber ii fully as strong and fine as the American wool amid rather excels iin length. dor these reasons Mr. Haggin has concluded that the intermingling oL.tho bioo of these famous woi producr of Australia vith his California flocks will benefit the latter. About ten years ago he imported five Australian sheep , but mme particular attention was paid to time results obtained. Two years ago Mr. Haggin imported five other highly bred Australians and inter. bred them with native-born sheep , the progeny showing up stronger and hardier than pure.brcd natives. Satisfied with the result obtained , time present imports. tion of fifty wa made. They were purchased by Mr. Haggin's agent at the ureat annual studsheep sale in Australia of 1883 , at prices ranging from 15 guineas or about 76 , to 150 guineas , or $776 50 each. Of course , the expense of bringing the sheep to this country is considerable , and , as yet , no other person 1mm Bought to import them. The lot mentioned are now at Sacramento , whore they are attracting a good deal of attention from sheep raisers , The finest alterative and anti-bilious medicine on earth , is &ma.tUam Ncr. vine , $1.50.
