For the Enquirer.
TO THE MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL
ASSEMBLY OF VIRGINIA.

Gentlemen: From the report of your proceed
ings, it appears that you took an early opPortu-
nifty of roting 10 eaeh Of yourselves copy Of Mr.
Robert G. SCOTS lale revision of the criminal
laws oil Virginia, and thai you soon thereafter
distributed a copy 10 each of the Judges and Pro-
scouting Arornes in the Commonwealth, and
that not single member OF your august body
has, up TO This hour, ever thought OF distributing
the work among the poor, unpaid Justices OF the
State. Now, gentlemen, as you and the Judges,
and Prosecuting Auornes, are all handsomelypaid
for your services would il moi have been more
equitable, just and proper, 10 have given the work
10 those who get no compensation for their SER
piees, than 10 appropriate ii 10 yourselves, and the
other high dsuiIares who are in the enjoyment Of
fat Offices, and leave the poor, unpaid Justices,
who are your constituents, TO either grope their
way in the dark, or to1 themselves with the price
Of The work, after y,u haze tared them once for
copies for sou,scires and The Judges aud Atiornes
FIR The COnrnlol,rca III?
The writer OF this hasty address has been a
Justice Of The Peace for The last twelve or thir-
teen years during which time he has been &C
lively engaged 10 the duties OF his Office, without
either form books, law books, or any other
works 10 direc or guide him, save those he pur-
chased with his own means, (unless an annual
copy of the session acts of your honorable body
may b considered an exccplion,) and without
any particular desire TO carp unnecessarily al
your proceedings, he respectfully begs leave TO
say that The rshs and Interests Of himself and his
brother Magistrates have, in his opinion, been
most unaccouclahly disregarded in your late pro-
ceedines in regard 10 the distribution of books
In conclusion, gentlemen, permit me to ex-
press The hope that you will review your pro-
ceilings, and promptly provide means for fur
nishing every Justice in the State with an ap-
proved Form Boot, as we'll as copy Of tae
iate Rerisnn at tie Girl ard Criminal L'Ss Of
Virginia, and your petitioner, as ia duty bound,
will ever pray, &c.. &c.

THE NATIONAL FINANCES.


In the Charleston Evening News We find the
following excellent article. LIS views are mot
only sound and unanswerable, but (and here we
differ with the News) they, in our opinion, re.
spond 10 the popular will. We cannot believe
that the American people will refuse 10 bear
slight burlhen upon their lea and coffee, and other
free articles when the country demands money to
sustain its honor and secure peace. We yet
hone 10 see Congress satisfied on this point, and
cheeriully coming forward 10 support the recon-
mendal,ons Of the Executive, SO necessary 10
maintain the national credit, and bring about
successful termination OF difficulties which all
deplore:
1.-THE Washington Union of Friday has an ar
licle in relation TO the national finances marked
BY good sense and sound principle. 1t commen-
ces with The just discrimination between war
and a peace system OF revenue. The Union
then shows that the first objects of just imposI
are uutaxed articles for temporary war purposes,
taxing luxuries highest Il commences with
duty on tea and coffee as one which the country
can well sustain, and proceeds 10 slate thai IN this
category of taxation should be embraced all ar
ticles wha,e YER which pay no dnty under The pre-.
sent tariff. II then contends for me proprely oi
imposing lakes on lururies, first through an i'm
posi-. and then il this form Of taxation should moi
yield Sufficient revenue, an excise on all luxu
ries whatever.
"We believe that this order aud succession OF
taxation contains the principles OF sound fiscal
system. We think if Immediately embodied in
scneme Of Federal taxation, the public credit
would be soon revived, and loan would be
taken up with no difficulty. Between Two and
,bree millions of dollars raised nv an ifnpost on
lea and coffee, and an equal amoun''rroduced, by
incre ,sed duties or an excise on luxuries, would
be productive not only Of the hsppie,t conseqn"n-
ces 10 the public credit, hu, we ha reason 10 TX
on the adoption Of such system for The Il
moral consequences on The character OF The con.
test We are wagin2 with Mexico II j MOI con
sidered, il appears TO rs, that a system OF nance
commensurate 10 the conJuncure Ct war, IS an
element OF Strength as important as the creation
ol armies, for nothing weakens, in greater O.
gree, popular government whose deliberations,
in crisis OF hostility, vaciate between sound
principles of h.cal policy and slavish ODE
iieDce 10 The popular feeling"

The Wings bave con,ended that the reduction
of duties on sugar and molasses would prove de-
s,ruc,ive 10 the best interests Of Louisiana. Sc
nator johnson, OF Louisiana, boldly advanced
this position The N. o. Courier meets The ar.
gumeni with facts, and says:
"This destruction is all imaginary on The part
Of our worthy Senator. The crop Of The year
1916, though no, so large as that OF 1872 IS yet
a favorable one compared 10 the average of sea-
sons-and the prices are very satisfactory this
wear. So Tar from the Tariff Of 1886 being de.
struc.ivc to the sugar interest of Louisiana il is
well known tina, many of the planters on Red Ri.
yer, and other parts Of the State, have abandoned
the culture OF COTTON and entered upon that OF su-
gar Notwithstanding the very suspicious appear
ance Of the cotton market. This fact ia worth a
thousand Of MIR. Johuson's imaginations."

VOLUNTEER MOVEMENTS IN WEST

A letter from Cabell C. a., of the6lh January,
audes to The formation OF a volunteer company
for Mexico. The Regiment was called together
on the 4lh inst, when fifiy-,hree stepped forward
and enrolled themselves as ready 10 march ard
fight in their coun,rys cause. They were to
start on the 7th for Wayne C. H., where the Re-
cimens was 10 meet on the 9Th, hoping 10 make
up The requisite number. Though this company
will be formed too late 10 be accepted by the
Stale, i, shows that there are some gallant spirits
in Cabell county. The citizens of,he Courthouse
have subscribed $500 for their benefit, and Chas
Conner $50 public-spiriied gentleman deserves
to be named with praise) has made donation OF
500. Again, we say, well done old Cabel She
has Sc, patriotic example for her neiehbors,
which will not be lost upon Them, should the
