"; fBy Telesraph to the Mornlmt Star J ' '
. Washinoton, April 20. Tie United
States Supreme Court rendered an impor
tant decision to-day, in the group of cases
1 known, as the Virginia coupon tax cases, in
. ' volying the validity of recent legislation of
that State with reference to the payment of
K State taxes in coupons of State bonds. The'
v decision was against the .State and in favor
of the bondholders on all the material
points. The Court holds that all legislation
of the State which attempts to evade the
- obligation under which it rests to receive
, coupons of its bonds in payment of State
taxes is unconstitutional and void, because
It impairs the obligation of contract; that
. the tax-payer, having once, made due ten
' der of coupons in payment of his taxes, is
under no obligation to pay such taxes in
money, but may rest securely upon his
" right to have the coupons received when
-offered; and that the tax collector who
attempts thereafter to forcibly collect
i such taxes by levying upon the tax
payer's property, is not shielded by
legislation of the State, but makes the at
tempt at bis personal peril. The Court
Jiolds, furthermore, that the suit brought
jBgainst a tax collector for the seizure of a
-ax-payer's property after due tender of
' - coupons, is not a suit against the State,
;bnt. is a suit against an individual tres
passer, acting without legal authority of
. the State. The opinion was delivered by
Justice Matthews, Chief Justice, and Jus
tices Bradley, Miller and Gray dissenting;
Justice Bradley delivering the dissenting
; opinion. - "
A delegation from Georgia, consisting of
Gen. John B. Gordon, Senator Colqmtt,
Hon. N; J. Hammond, M. CKiser, Wm.
T. Newman, E. P. Howell, H. W.
Grady, W. A. Hemphill, Jack W.
Johnson, C. "A. Collier, John N. Nunn,
Allison Green and John A. Fitten,
'- called at the White House this af
i ternoon and formally invited the Presi-
dent to visit Atlanta, Ga., during the ses
sions of the Commercial Convention, in the
latter part of May. Senator Colquitt and
. Gen. Gordon addressed the President and
impressed on him the great good to the
South which would result from a visit by
him. The people down there, they said,
. did not of tea have a chance to see the
Chief Magistrate of the nation, and now
that they have .one of their own choice
they were extremely anxious to have him
among them, if only for a day, so that they
might become better acquainted with each
other. Gen. Gordon said he wanted the
President to come down South, just to see
' how they lived and see or himself how the
colored people lived and were treated by
their neighbors. The President received the
delegation very cordially, and told them
frankly that he wanted io accept their invi
- tation, but was unable to say just at pres-
: . est whether or not he could leave Wash
: iagton at that time. He was informed that
; all the members of his Cabbet had been
invited to attend, and it was -expected that
- at least three would accept. The President
then said he would lay the matter before
vhe Cabinet to-morrow and give the com
- naittee a definite answer on Wednesday.
He then invited them to attend his recep
; tion to-morrow evening.
- Judge Durham, First Comptroller of the
'. Treasury,; has given an opinion in a case
coming from Charleston, S. C, on a quea
tion as to whether any portion of interest
collected on direct taxes shall be refunded.
He holds that under the decisions of the
Court of Claims all interest collected for
. the period prior to the expiration of sixty
days immediately following the fixing of
the tax, shall be refunded, and that the ap
propriation made -by section 3,689 of the
Revised Statutes is available for that pur
pose during the fiscal year that claims are
presented to the Secretary of the Treasury,
and during the two fiscal years thereafter.

The Afghan Frontier Question A
Less Favorable Outlook or Feaee.
fBT Cable to the Mornimr Star.l
'- London, April 20. It is stated in Liberal
circles that negotiations regarding the fron
v tier question have assumed a less favorable
aspect, owing to the revival by Russia of
questions which had been regarded as finally
settled. The Standard says that despite the
apparent peaceful settlement of negotia-
- tions, there are indications sufficient to warn
reasonable men against the assumption that
the storm has passed. There is no abate
ment in Russia's ardor in preparing for war,
and the exultation of the Muscovite papers,
instead of remedying evils, suggest that
' they may attempt to push their advantage
; beyond the limits which Mr. Gladstone's
Cabinet even can tolerate. ,
r - The Timet says' that hopes of peacet are
iv pot founded on - intelligence of any - new
V element entering into England's treatings
, , with Russia. It is simply known that in
. the Cabinet a cold fit has succeeded the
,hot. We do not learn," says the Times,
- .-"that any definite proposals, offering new
iground for. agreement, have been presented
or accepted by either side; therefore, it
would be madness for the government to
-suspend its activity in preparing for war."
The Nepaulse Government is drilling 22,
000 Gorkhas in anticipation of the Indian
Government's acceptance of their offer of
;v assistance. . -
"" v It is rumored among Berlin diplomats
; ' that Lumsden is soon to be recalled.
The Khan of Bokhara has written to the
.. Ameer, who is his son-in law, advising him
V against war with Russia.
