Mr.. Faulkner remarked that he was Undue
ed to offer the following resolution in
consequence OF letters which he had receiy
ed from several intelligent citizens of the
county of Berkeley Their representations
exhibited gross disparity between the real
and assessed value Of many of the buildings
10 that county lie had the fullest confidence
in those representations, and doubted not but
that the same evil existed to an equal ex-
tent 10 other parts Of the Commonwealth. II
was subject well worthy Of the action of
able and intelligent officer of Finance Of the |
State (Mr Health who fully concurred in |
his views, and as also in the want of some
provision in the law to meet such cases The !

In his resolution.
Resolred, That the Committee Of Fl

ency of providing by law for the revaluatlon |
Of buildings which may be either increased !
in value by repairs, or the value whereof ms |
be diminished by gradual decay, and that
they have leave to report by bii! or other

The great spring Of all organized repub-
fcannm is the performance of the will of
majority. Without that there is. no govern |
meni; bat the most prolific of evils .anarchy.
Our Union is republican po!ity; it is sys |
tenn, not Of association merely, but of in |
tegral government ment to be republican in |
essence as well as form, in agency as well |
as profession. Congress was designated 10
be the organ of the will of the majority, the |
general government, the representative of
The Sovereignty of The People, which is as
an active principle. the will of the majority |
These definitions are unquestionabe. Con-
ieqIentiy, when the will Of she majority is |
sacrificed to the violence or threats of mi
nOrity, the Union, too, is virtually sacrificed |
constitutional order is gone-ansrchy sub |
Sltuled: the mere machinery or mechanism
OF the political strulture may remain, yet al |
Ways in 40 precarious condition, by SO poor
stenure, that no reliance can be placed up
on It's survivorship.
