The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1846-08-15

o. We have but word or two to say to the st.
Clairsville Gazette, this week. The Gazette says,
"if the Ohio delegation heard this declaration e. e.
when Mr.. Brinkerboff said, tive can defeat your
biIl-we will defeat your bill,'D that he spoke in
their behalf and contradicted not that assertion,
then the conclusion irresistible, that he did speak
their sentiments" Now, we say. every person
not disposed to put a false construction ON Mr.
Brnkerhoff's language understood the above threat
of defeating the tariff bill, as only applicable IT the
House insisted upon inserting the tax on tea ant
coffee. And wesuppose. that none of the Ohio
delegation are disposed to deny that they would
have opposed, or dfeated this bill. f this tea and
coffee tax had been retained. We make this as
ser,ion from the statements of Messrs. Mcdowell
and Morris Is the editor Of the Gazette in favor
Of taxing tea and coffee' We would suppose &c
from his remarks.

NEW YoRK, August 3, l846.
To lie Editor of The Union;
The most important news brought
by the Hibernia is the ratification of the
Oregon treaty, being signed by Mr.
McLane and Lord Palmerston on the
l7thinstant. The treaty was despatch
ed by the Hibernil. %
Trade had revived in the manufac-
turing districts. Cotton was brisk, and
prices very firm, on the strength oflight
crops. The weather continued favor-
abletfor the growing crops. The En-
glish funds were firm. The ratihca-
tion of the treaty had been announced
in the British Parliam ent. Elections
had resulted tavorably TO free-trade can
didates. Macaniay was defeated with
Lord Ehrngton. The proceedings in
Parliament were moving forward with
firmness. The premier announced his
intention of bringing forward, on the
Monday following, his measure relat-
ing to sugar duties. The established
church in Ireland was not to be inter-
fered WITH. The corn market was leth-
argic; pork was some lower. A dis
position existed everywhere to give
ministers fair trial.. Money market
was easier. Payment of July divi-
dends had made money plentier. The
iron trade had improved. Nothing
said about Mexico. No mail from
Boston till s, ?. m. G.

struction that may be put upon our all
lusions to the exemption of money in
vestedin the Stocks of the State. The
doctrine is advanced that SO long as
these stocks exist this exemption must
live with them, because it has been SOL
emnly enacted, in one Of the early stat
utes creating them, that they shall be
free of taxation. We do not propose
a dry legal argument to sustain the po.
sition we take in this matter. 1t may
not be amiss, however, TO observe, tha,
at the time of that enactment, stocks
were issued, TO foreign capitalists alone,
inlarge sums, and upon what was con-
sidered permanent investments.
We had not then any transfer sys-
tenn, by which the traffic in stocks was
facilitated; nor had we men at home,
able to cothmand them in any consid-
cradle amounts. The guarantee was
to men Of other States, that if they loan
ed us their money, we would not tax
our stocks, and withhold it from their
dividends. But this is aside from the
necessity otthe argument. We would
moi tax stocks now; because that would
be to follow property. Our principle
is to tax every one according to his
wealth, without enquiring as to its in
vestment, or exempting it on that ac-
count. For Instance, the charter Of
the Trust Company, subjects it to tax
of per cent on its dividends; and as
between the State and the corporation
the courts say that is contract; and
yet if the State saw proper to abandon
this mode of taxation, and assess the
resident stockholder at hisactual worth,
he would hardly attempt to screen HIM
selfbehind the corporation, and claim ex-
emp,ion because his means were in its
stock. lfhe would OF could, that is the
very best reason in the world why such
privilege, initiating against the eter-
nal principle of justice, should be i'm
mediateIy abolished. Legally, the dis
tinction which we take may be some
what refned-moraliy it is right-and
moral right and justice are what we
want as a basis Of taxation. Above
all other things, the law should not hold
out the means Of evasion, nor open the
door Of exemption to citizens of the
State; and the people may well be
jealous of that prerogative, which their
Representatives claim to use, and their
Courts to enforce, oftying up the hands
Of those who are to come after US, in
the greatest attributes of sovereignty;
the power, and the equality of taxation.
We hold that there is no pledge in fa-
vor of any OF our own people, which
would be violated by the principle we
advocate. II a man choose to put his
money in stocks, because they are a
better investment, let him do so,-but
do not make them means of fraud; an
invitation to investment where money
shall escape taxation, whilst others bear
the burthen of paying the interest upon
this same favored investment. Tax
not the stocks; that would follow prop
erty, and affect those who are not liable
to pay our revenues; but tax money;
Dealth-aN of ii, without distinction
and let it 60 to stocks, or aught else
that may please the fancy OF its pos

lr,-The following article was handed to Us for
publication some two weeks since, but was acci-
dentaily omitted. II would be well for our tobac-
co growers to adopt the suggestions OF this letter
in relation to tho quantity of tobacco raised. II
does appear to us that if farmers would only raise
about one third the quantity usually grown, and
take proper care uf It. that they would realise more
money than they now do. We have seen letter
from Baltimore which states that good, sound con-
mon Ohio tobacco has sold this year, in that mar
ket. for $3.50 per hundred. This, as It cost $2
to pack and send il there, would occasions loss Of
so cents per hundred to the owner II the tobacco
had been given to him.. 3fiss M

We again advise you not to send any common
Tobacco to market. II is wholly without demand,
and we do not venture to give even nominal
quotation for 1t. If packers in Ohio continue TO
send forward such Tobacco, il will soon have 10
be sold, II II can be sold at ALL at price that will
not cover the cest Transportation, and sreceipi
here, simply by swelling the inspection and IN
creasing the stocks, must cause all the better kinds
TO sell for less than they otherwise would.
