A LIBERAL TREATY WITH CHINA.-According
to Washington despatch to the Ne0 for&
Herald, information has been received by the
Government, that Mr.. Reed, our Minister in
China, had made liberal treaty with the Ce-
lestal Empire, similar to that made by France
and England. "we are to have a Minister at
Pekin. 1t is said that the Emperor regards our
country with great favor. 1t is supposed that
the dgnifed neutral position we held in the
late war has made an impression highly favora-
BILE. The same may be said of Russia; and it is
understood treaty has been made with that
power on the same basis as with the United
States. Russia has behaved SO friendly through
its Admiral and Minister there in taking MIR.
Reed up the river to Tien-siD, when our vessels
were not able to ascend, and in other acts OF
sympathy, associated by general unity of ac--
ton with the United States, that | understand
it is contemplated to give official expression TO
the Russian government of our appreciation of
such conduct. The news of this treaty has been
made overland by way of Russia and Europe"

County Finances.


The facts which we have heretofore published
in reference to our county finances, seem to have
satisfied every body that something is wrong III
the management of affairs Justices OF the
Peace, equally with other persons, are at loss
to explain the enormous increase in county tax
alton and expenditures within the last few
years. No public buildings have lately been e
erected, no bridges built, no roads constructed
(more than usual) nor other costly improve
ments made; yet we find that while the amount
of the county levy in 1916 was S4,SS' 20 anu
the assessment on tithables 70 cents, the levy
is this wear S15,193.75, and the assessment $3.50
Why is this9 The taxpayers would ike TO
know and it is clearly the duty OF the County
C,urt to find out. The Court, however, sat
two whole weeks at the August term-all OF the
Justices, moreover, being summoned to attend
on the first day, to transact some business In re-
gard to free negro-and no step was taken to-
wards reduction of taxation and the extrava'
CANT expenditure of public money.
The fact of the very great and unaccountaole
increase of county expenses having had SO little
influence to bring about investigation ana re-
form, we have taken the trouble to obtain from
the Clerks offices of several OF the ADJOINING
counties statements bearing upon the subject
In the following table the Magistrates and tax
payers of this county can compare the taxation
here with the amounts raised in Rockingham,
Albemarle and Rockbridge:

Barbse,s Fisher Girl.

Those of our citizens who visited the inimita'
bic 'Coquette" will be pleased to learn that be-
fore very long they may have an opportunity to
see the "Fisher Girl" just completed by the eel
ebrated Virginia Artist, Mr.. Barbee. A Bslti'
more journal thus speaks of the Statue: 1t is
the figure of woman, or rather of young girl,
perfectly made, seated upon the beach, and in.
tently engaged in tying knot in her net. That
is the whole story-if story it can be called,
which requires no explanation, and can be taken
in at glance. There is no installing the voca-
ton of the young girl; the shells and pebbles
strewn around her, the illet of sea-shells encir-
cling her brow, and the net which she is mend
ing, sufficiently indicate that. Her hair, very
properly, instead of being dressed and braided,
is merely looped up by means Of the tllet, and
left to hang in q dshevelled mass upon her neck
Her neck is arched forwards, and the head,
slightly inclined to one side, bends gracefully
over her work, upon which her attention appears
to be completely rivetted. Altogether it is
work of very superior merit, appealing power
fully to that sense of beauty which makes
pretty, graceful woman, even in marble, pleas,
ing object to contemplate, and characterized by
perfect chasteness and purity, alikein design and
in execution.

~ The Democratic press of this State are
Mortified at the idea of Southern anti-Democrats
encouraging any movement towards a union
with the Opposition at the North. This is nat
ural, as they may well feel alarmed at the pros
pect of defeat. We wonder if they would refuse
the assistance of Black Republicans in national
election2 Some of them are now excessively
anxious "for the reconciliation of those factions
which have SO long paralyzed the strength OF
the New York Democracy" One Of these fac
tons, be it remembered, is the party which sup
ported Martin Van Buren, for the Presidency, in
1S4S. Where is the difference between afilia-
ting with the followers of Van Buren,, and uni
ting with the supporters of Fremont2 If the
Democracy may cooperate with the first, why
may not the Opposition seek the cooperation OF
the second

NORTHERN "Anl1Es.n-The National INTEL

NORTHERN "ALL1Es."-The National Intelli-
gencel is at q loss to discover what are the pre-
else points of difference between the Democracy
of Pennsylvania and the Republicans with refe-
renee to the pending phase of the Kansas ques-
ton. The former as we'll as the latter are in
favor of the immediate admission of Kansas into
the Union, without regard to the restriction of
the English bill They also take ground in ia
vor of a protective tariff. In New Jersey, the
case is no better. The Congressional Convention
of the second district, which met at Burlington
on Tuesday last, endorsed the Administration,
the Cincinnati platform, the tariff Of 1916, and
the immediate admission Of Kansas! Our Vir-
ginia Democrats seem to overlook these facts.

THE TARIFF DEMOCRACY OF PENNSYLVANIA
The whole Democratic party of Pennsylvania
Lecompton and Anti-Lecompton, seem to be
coming out in favor of a protective tariff. at
large Democratic meeting in the large Democrat
ic county of Berks the other day, the following
resolution was unanimously adopted:
''Resolved, That we are unqualiiedly in favor
of the repeal or modification of the Tariff OF
1857, and earnestly desire that adequate protec-
ton shall be secured to the great industrial In
terests of our State and country"
A Democratic County Convention met in
Lancaster on the 18th, and nominated James M.
Hopkins for Congress by reclamation. He made
aspeech accepting the nomination, taking ground
against sectional strife and abolitionism and in
favor of the admission of Kansas and the adop-
ton of such tariff as would put every furnace
in blast in the State.
There it is. While the Virginia and South
Carolina Democracy are preaching the doctrine
of Free Trade, their Pennsylvania "allles" are
clarnorous for protection to their manufactures
And yet the party is unit, upon all questions,
in all portions of the country

HY-The Yindicator inagines that he has
caught the Spectator in very awkward predics'
ment. We are sorry to dispel this agreeable de-
fusion in which our neishoor is reveling, but
are compelled to do it nevertheless. He says we
advocate union of all the Opposition forces,
North and South, against the Democracy, on the
around that..the slavery issue is settled; while
in the same breath VIC assert that the Kansas
question will be re-opeDed next Winter, and
launch fierce invectives at the Democracy for
raising q storm Of sectional strife. "Whst glar-
ing inconsistency is this!" he exclaims. A few
words will serve to show that there is no incon-
sistency in our position, and relieve our neigh
Dor of his exuberant JOY.
We DO hold the Democracy responsible fol
much of the sectional strife which has disturbed
the country, and censure them for not having
settled Kansas affairs finally at the last session
of Congress, instead of adopting such misera-
bic expedient as the English bill. Kansas will
DO before Congress again as soon as the people
of that Territory can prepare a State Constitu
ton, aud thus the controversy will be renewed
with more or less virulence. But Kansas will
be admitted into the Union in spite of the res
friction of the English bill. All the Democratic
candidates for Congress at the North who have
spoken on the subject, including some who voted
for the English bill, have avowed themselves in
favor of disregarding the restriction. Even
VIM. II. English, the father of the bill, has re-
pudiated its provisions, in a speech delivered at
New Albany, Indiana. The Southern Democ.
racy will, of course, make a fiery resistance to
the admission of Kansas, but the Northern Dem
ocrats and Republicans will carry Congress, and
the President, we do no doubt, will acqui-
esce. The Kansas controversy will thus be set
tied, and with it every subject of contention be-
tween the North and the South removed from
the halls Of Congress. All this will occur long
before the Presidential canvass comes on, and
in anticipation of time Of peace, we desire a
union Of the Opposition elements, with view
to the election of President.
In another article the Vindcator commiser-
stes our folly in anticipating the overthrow Of
the Democracy. 1t would be useless for us to
give him the facts upon which our opinion is
based. He don't recognize the comet which is
visible every night, and stoutly denies that we
have seen it Now man who don't know a
comet when be sees it, cant be expected to ''dis-
Germ the signs of the times!"

THE SYRACUSE CoNvENrIoNs.-Th New York
Commercial, conservative Wing journal, re-
ferring to the failure of the Americans and Re-
publicans to effect union at Syracuse, says:
"a combination will come, however, in time
A little more experience only in the school of
defeat is necessary. Indeed the two conventions
seem to have resolved that the next election
shall decide the question. They have respective
ly nominated tickets that will call out full par

Of the parties, afford basis for future negotia-
ton and agreement. Well, be it So"
The New York Express, another conservative
paper, says union will be effected as soon as oil
the 'poiiical machines" are smashed up. IL,
says the Express, Popular Convention were
summoned, inviting everybody Democrats and
Wings, as well as Americans and republicans
the smashing up would take place. This is the
true position. The Republicans must not calcu
late upon Substituting other parties, but must
dsband and then meet them on some common
ground. Otherwise we would as soon see the

ourEn-one of the most remarkable facts re-

QUREE-One of the most remarkable facts re-
corded by NJ. Boudin is the immunity which
towns, especially the larger and more populous
ones, enjoy from accident to life by lightning
Thus between 1900 aud 1850 not single death
was recorded from this cause in Paris; and in
1786 it was calculated that out of75O,ooo deaths
in London during thirty years only two had
been produced by lightning. Comparing these
numbers with the total number of deaths from
this cause, and with the fact that twenty five
per cent, of all happen under trees, he holds it
reasonable to conclude shat lightning finds
more victims in the open country than in cit
ies." The average annual number of deaths by
lightning in France, from 1885 to 1852, inclusive,
was seventy-two. In 1886 there were Ill.
