Flag is loosely thrown; the whole is sup

The Tax Of one per cent ON Merchants
Passed by the House OF Delegates.
Contrary to what we had hoped, and
been led to expect from what we had
heretofore seen in the Richmond papers,
the bill placing a tax of e-per cent on
the gross sales of merchants in this State,
has passed the House of Delegates, and so
far as that body is concerned, ha. become
law. We find that all our delegates
strenuously fought it to the last. Mr..
Richardson made a speech against it,
and so did Messrs. Edgiugtou and Knote.
Mr.. Edgiugton offered ryder to the bill,
exempting the border cities from its oper-
alton, but all to no effect, as the bill, when
put upon its passage, was carried through
by a vote of rs ayes to % nays. From
the House the bill has gone into the Sem
ate, and there has been carried up to its
third reading, which looks very like the
next vote would make it q law of the
State. If this bill passes, there is no
telling the effect of it. 1t looks now as if
it must PROSTATE the commercial business
of the Commonwealth, and like a second
edict of Nantes, drive the men of capital
and energy beyond our borders, in quest
of less oppressive laws. 1t is probably the
most unjust and CALLING measure ever
offered in the Legislature of any State of

WrnoK have four candidates for Sheriff

WE now have four candidates for Sheriff
in the field, viz: Messrs. Dorsey, Heburn,
Gill, and Sights, and there is certain
ty of at least two more, and very likely still
more. The gentlemen nominated SO far,
are we believe, all members of the Oppo-
sition in some sense or other, and it will
therefore be next in order that we have
some specimens of the various grades and
shades of Democracy prevailing herea
bouts. We have forty or fifty Admins
tration Democrats in the county and they
ought to be represented. We have two or
three times that many Douglas Democrats,
and they of course ought to have cham
pion. Then there is the Wise School, Every
scarce) and the Hunter School, with
smattering here and there for Breckin-
ridge, and perhaps two or three people who
hang to somebody else. All these bran
ches and divisions should have candidates,
for as we said the other day, one man has
about as good chance as an other, if
his family kin is moderately numerous, in
the present divided and split up state of
politics.

The Pittsburg Gazette in commenting on
Gov. Letcher's announcement of a treas
ury deficit and call for still heavier taxa
ton, remarks as follows:
This deficiency was created by Gov.
Wise in his Harper's Ferry demonstration,
which he brought about for the purpose,
as he declared, of "giying the boys taste
of military discipline" This may have
been very delightful pastime for the late
Executive of the "Old Dominion" but it
has proved rather costly "fun" to the tax
payers of the ancient commonwealth. 1t
is the uore serious from the fact that the
people are now taxed almost beyond endu-
rance. Business, domestic and foreign, is
taxed-land and personal property are
taXed-money is taxed-occupations aud
incomes are taxed-and indeed every kind
of property has to bear more than its
share, except the SLAVES. To save this
species of property from government
visitation, n resolution is now pending to
levy forced contribution of one per
cent. on the sales of merchandise. As
this law affects the "Pan Handle" region
very seriously, we are not surprised that
many of the residents of that locality re-
gard with favor the proposition now before
our Legislature to purchase that section of
Virginia, and annex it to Pennsylvania
They are heartily tired of a system of
laws which subjects every kind of indus
try and enterprise in their own common
wealth to the domination of the Slave
Power. Gov. Letcher will have happy
time of it in meuding the breaches made
by the Wise dynasty-a work which will
require more craftsmanship than he is re-
puted to possess

IT will be seen by an announcement in
our advertising columns, that His Honor,
Judge Thompson, is out again for election
to the position he now holds as Judge of
the Circuit Court. Whether the Judge is
to have the race all to himself, we do not
know certainly, but we have heard ru-
NOR that a lawyer in one of the lower
counties has determined to offer himself
for the same place. This position is both
an honorable one and a profitable one,
aud what is peculiarly good about it is,
thai it lasts so long-eight whole years
long as four Sherifaltics, or four elections
to Congress. A man only has two or
three chauces at it in his life time, and if
he lets slip one good opportunity to run,
he has no sure thing that he will everhave
another. This being the case, it becomes
those gentlemen of the bar who have any
idea OF offering themselves for this honor
able and profitable place, to make up their
minds very soon, as election day is only
some two months ahead, and great many
ropes will necessarily have to be laid in
that time.

The communication of Frank H. Pier
point, Esq, of Fairmont, which appears in
our paper to-day, will excite, we have no
doubt, a wide spread interest, inasmuch as
he is one of the ablest lawyers and one of
the strongest political men in Western
Virginia.
His statements and arguments are strong,
bold and unimpeachable. and putforth with
a resolution and manliness not to be triHed
with. A reading of the article will at
once impress the reader that this thing
called political heresy-this thing called
free soilism, is fast losing its reproach,
and is rapidly taking root not only among
the people, but among the public men of
Western Virginia, and if it progresses
within the next year or two, as it has
within the past two or three years, it
must successfully contest the power of
the now dominant party. That it is
bound to do so sooner or later, no think
ing intelligent man can shut out from his
view. Solomon has told ua that the thing
which is, is that which has been and that
which shall be. and this thing called free
soil heresy is principle of that kind
Since the beginning its destiny has been
to go on conquering and to conquer. 1t
never was put down. 1t can not be put
down. 1t is just as sure to triumph in the
end as the morning is certain to rise upon

can clubs, or affect to look down upon
such things as something of despicable
kind, because they commence among
the lower working millions, do we'll to
laugh while they may-but let them re-
member that the sure, certain destiny of
the whole matter is final success.
