THE TARBORO MERCURY.

L.
This Journal has lately striven to make a home
thrust at in regard to ad ualoren and asks us to
get off the fence stating that yelping in the
trail of the Gandard and working mems association.
We have always endeavored to make a trail fo1
ourself and have heretofore had as respectable
sheets as the Mereu,y yepng at us, disturbing us
just little does the howl which reaches from
Edgecomb county. When it gets cent it may
possibly close its jaw.
The 1nercury has taken upon itself to exhibit its
lack of information upon the first principles of po
litical economy, together with number of issues
placed before the Democratic party, which it must
accept (woe be to it, it must, forsooth loose its
valuable support! The Mercury has withal mis-
quoted We did not say in favor of od
valorem advocated now but we did say that we
were in favor of the principle of al ualorem. Now
does the Mercury profess to know any thing about
government? If so, by what right is taxed
in any shape? Is it not for the support of Govern
ment and is the support of Government not de-
manded because of the protection it affords to the
citizen? This being the case, man ought to pay
taxes just in proportion to the amount of protection
received. This is ad odlorem. You might as well
try to hurl the from its proud eminence as
to deny this great principle of political economy
The one is founded upon the necessary laws of ma
ture, the other upon the humanity requiring neces-
sity of the existence Of government. Justice will
never be accomplished till we conform
possible to the pri. cpe of ad calorem. Inviduous
distinctions ought not to be made in taxing, no
than in the proportion Of immunities to be en-
jo ed by American. When the time comes for
opposition to the thing feared by the Mercury, we
may possibly not be a whit behind factous
friend in Tarboro, in battling for the of ustice
nor does it follow that because may oppose the
taxing of negroes al colorem, that must show
our ignorance of right by opposing the whole
principle.
