venture to say that never before the pre-
sent year, and we believe we may say the
present discussion, has this objection been
urged against tax law--that 1t dtG pay
regard to the Ualue of the property It tax
ed, and did endeavor to establish some
ineligible proportion between that value
and the amount Of the tax! Yet this
just this and nothing else-is the objection
now made against the trhoIe principle OF
ad valorem duties. And, ludIcrousIy
enough, this objection puts itself forward
with the phrase, and as if in the spirit,
of compromise between protection and
freet rade.

The Tariff,

The bill, which passed the House of
Representatives, is yet under discussion
in the Senate. Several speeches have
been delivered in that body against il, yet
the friends Of the bill remain silent and are
anxious for the vote to be taken.
The opposition party propose no amend
ment but go against the measure entirely.
Their lengthy speeches must oe intended
to secure 10 them the chances arising from
delay. Mr.. NILES delivered speech
against it on the Goth ut., which is the
las news from Congress.
The following remarks, taken from the
Washington Union of the 2Ist, fairly pre-
sents the character and effects of the wing
tariff of 1912, and the present bill, and
the views and objects of the two parties

NAVIGATION OF THE COLUMBIA. We
have given to our readers, the remarks of
Mr.. Peel, in reference to the Oregon trea-
ty, and it will be seen that he speaks of
the right Of the free navigation of the CO.
lumbia, secured to Great Britain as per-
petual. The English papers claim the I'M
limited right of navigation by the treaty,
and assert that the American papers are
in error in connecting its duration with
the charter Of the Hudson Bay company.
The Union, on the other hand, stated that
the treaty gave to the Hudson Bay compa-
ny, and British subjects trading with that
company, the free navigation of the river
during the continuation of its charter
There is contradiction here. Yet we can.
not believe that the Senate has surrender
ed TO Great Britain the navigation of so
important a stream as the Columbia. The
publication of the treaty will remove all
doubt.

We give the following item of news
from the Vicksburg Sentinel, with its non
consent to the intended attack. We have
met with several statements that such an
attack was in contemplation, and that a
council of naval captains was or would be
held to advise on the best means of making
the attack, and we are inclined to think
the report is true. We have heard many
speak with surprise of the delay in ma
king the attack.
We think the taking of that castle would
do much-very much--towards termina-
ting the war And that otherwise we should
loose much in the estimation in which we
are and would be held by the Mexicans. II
the castle could be stormed (of this we
know not, but think it can be) then
then let it be done and that speedily,
and let its future holders be decided here
after as may be just and right.
"ArrAcK on VERA CRUz.--Rumors that
the Cabinet have determined on an attack
upon vera CRUZ, ana mat COUNCIL OF
veteran officers is to be held at Washing
ton TO advise upon the best system of at
tack, continue to thicken. We have little
doubt that the attack has been determined
on; but we must insist that unless the post
is 20 be held permanently, its taking is not
worth the blood and treasure it will cost

Mr.. CalhOun'S Rennrt,

We have examined Mr.. CALUoUN's re-
port on the memorial ofthe Memphis Con-
vention with care. 1t is an able docu-
ment and well worthy the attention of all
The subject of the report is of vast impor-
lance to the west, and, if we are not mis-
taken IN our own judgment of the signs of
The times, the doctrin laid down by Mr..
CALHOUN, in reference TO the power of
Congress to improve the navigation of the
Mississippi, will become popular. This
much we say, and we feel much pleasure
in the powerful reason by which he sus-
,ains the construction which the demo.
cratic party have given to the constitu-
tional powers of Congress, on the subject
Of internal Improvements generally. Yet
we must withhold our assent to the con.
illusions to which he has arrived, as to the
power of Congress, to improve the navi-
CATION of the Mississippi and other rivers,
and we may at some other time haze
something more to say on the subject.
We give to our readers the following
extracts:
The Charleston Mercury, speaking of
Mr.. Calhoun's Report on the memorial of
the Memphis Convention, says: "We can
see no answer TO his argument; we be-.
lieve it unanswerable. Not, however, as
Vindication of loose construction Of the
Constitution or ofinternal Improvement by
the Federal government. 1t goes no step
towards these ends. Nothing ever ema-
mated from The author more distinguished
for manifest and pervading veneration
for the Constitution. Every principle is
drawn directly from that instrument, and
every Limitation of the State Rights doc.
trne, IS sternly enforced. There is no,
tnlng vague either in the argument or in
the conclusions; no advance is made under
cover of q mist, and when we reach the
deductions, we know exactly what they
cover. A singular cearness and precis-
ion of definition characterIzes the whole
document. Yet with all this, Mr.. Calhoun
reaches conclusion hitherto deemed in
admissible by the Republican party, that
the Federal Government has the power OF
improving and rendering safe the naviga-
tion of the Mississippi and its principal
branches-a power which has always been
identified with that to build and improve
harbors of commerce, 10 construct roads
and to improve the navigation of every lit.
tie stream in the Union. Il is by carefully
separating it from all these, by referring
1t TO distinct grant Of the constitution,
and establishing It's identity in character
and object with the power to make safe the
navigation of the Atlantic coast, that Mr..
Calhoun arrives at conclusions to which
every State Rights man can heartily as
sent"
Mr.. CALHoUN's REPORT have
given the report of the committee to whom
the memorial of the Memphis Convention
was referred, the most careful considera.
ton; it asserts doctrines for which the re-
publican party have always contended.-
We recognize in them the doctrines Of
Gen. Jackson on the same subject-doc.
trineS long known and sustained in the
south aud south west. We publish par
OF the report in this paper and will com
plete the publication in our next number

Wednesday Morning, :; August 5, 1916.

~ The Senate, on Ike 18th, by vote
of 81 TO IL, passed bill, in accordance

of the Mississippi, Ohio, and Arkansas

JOHN RANDOLPH, by his will, emancipa-
ted his slaves, and bequeathed them 5000
acres of land in Ohio, and money TO ena-
bic them TO settle upon it.
A few days since, we saw it stated. that
they had gone to settle in Mercer county,
Ohio. But the citizens of that county had
objected TO their settlement in the county,
and hence these negroes (about 400 in
number) had dispersed through the coun-
try. What comment upon abolitionism?

The OREGON Treaty.

Sir Robert Peel in his valedictory an
nounced the settlement of the Oregon
boundary question, which was received
with cheers, and the opposition TO Mr..
Peel expressed "great degree OF pleasure

cause OF quarrel between the United States
and Great Britain is terminated d" with

The British Ministry.

On the I'd July the House of Commons
divided on the Irish Coercion Bill. On
ascertaining the vote, Ii was found that
there was a majority of % against the
ministers. This vote IS creditable to that
body, for a more Ubiquitous measure was
never perhaps proposed in any legislative
body, and if it had passed would have been
a disgrace to the English Statute book
Sir Robert Peel had proved his love Of
country, in passing the Corn and Tariff
bills, and thus bringing bread To the labO-
rers door. But in endeavoring to degrade
the Irish peasantry by reducing them to
the condition of the Russian serfs, as this
coercion bill would have done, he merited
defeat, and we rejoice in his failure.

NEGRO SUTFRAGE.--The convention in

giving the right of suffrage to negroes,
should be submitted, on its own merits, to

convention adopted clause giving the
right of suffrage to sOhite males over 81
years.
