IN the House Of Delegates, on Tues
day last, Mr.. Borgess. offered a resoIu-
ton requesting the Auditor to furnish
the House an estimate OF the revenues
for this year at each OF the following
rates: at 20 cents, % cents and 30 cents
on every one hundred dollars value of
taxable property, and to inform the
House whether, in his opinion, the
taxes can be reduced without embar-
rassment to the State.
This resolution points a moral'' in
regard TO the railroad bill. The people
feel that 40 cents tax on the hundred
dollars bears very hard upon them,
and operates as "a draw back to a fair
amount OF prosperity. What will they
say when it comes to twice or three
times that tax on the hundred dollars
TO meet the interest on our share of
Nlrginia's debt? And especially what
will they say when the fact will be
shown on every hastings, as shown it
will be, that the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroads fair share of the increased
tax, amounting to one or two hundred
thousand dollars, as the case may be,
has been lost to the State, and must be
made up out of the pockets OF other
Taxpayers.
1t seems strange that any man in or
out of the Legislature, should shut his
eyes to this condition OF things so GER
tain to occur in the future. Apparent
ly it is taken for granted that "A small
matter Of one or two hundred thousand
dollars in the way OF tax, will never
be noticed by the people, and that they
will submit to its loss with all possible
complaceucy. And yet we affirm with
out fear of contradiction, that had the
issue been made in last falls election in
regard to the proposed tax. that not
half n dozen members pledged to an
exemption of the road could have been
elected. We doubt If even one mem
Der could have been thus returned. If
any doubt of the truth of this assertion
is entertained, the way to test it will be
to let the present bill go over until next
session, and in the meanwhile take the
sense of the people upon it in the NOM
nation of candidates.

Grace Greenwood on wOman's POIit.
zeal Rights.
"Grace Greenwood" whose name is
held in affection in thousands of homes
last week lectured in Chicago on "He-
roism in Common Life" Inthe course
of her lecture she alluded to the efforts
for the political emancipation of wo-
men, and her good tempered remarks
are calculeted to do more towards re-
moving existing prejudices than are
the fierce diatribes of the so-called
'strong minded" members of her sex.
She said:
Among the heroines of the present
day were those who advocated the
emancipation of woman. They had
sneers and ridicule against them, and
had only common sense and health on
| their side. 1t required heroism to adj
vocate 1t. In her heroic moments she
might dream of being Joan of Arc,
but never in her widest moments. OF
hghting against the tide of prejudice.
Young America on the street corners
would conquer her. Speaking of Civ

Pipes might be broken, and cold coffee,

In fact, husbands would begin to lose
the comforts OF home.
She was only in favor of giving the
ballot to three classes of women, First.

cation could be added. Every woman
could be required to have sewing ma

have an additional qualification, and
require every woman to know how to
make milliner'S bill, to read and
write, to know how to get new dresses.
and be learned enough TO never be be-
hind the latest fashion. Or, they could
have moral qualification, and not al
low any woman to vote who read the
New York Mercury, Police Gazette, ac-
counts of murders and divorce cases, or
the Presidents speeches. A distin-
guished clergyman of Chicago had said
that If women were allowed to
vote the result would be that thew
would soon be working in the fields
like Hungarian women. Another cler-
gymnn had said that women should
not vote, because it would disturb the
oneness OF married life. To carry out
that oneness would produce some very
queer results. Women would not be
able to go to church unless their hus-
bands did. Such argument only show
ed contempt for women. No one
could know the beautiful and uncon-
sclous martyrdom of hearts that daily
took place. She then gave a beautiful

THE refusal of Gen. Sheridan to al
low the rebels at Galveston, Texas, to
bury the rebel Gen. a. S. Johnston
with military honors, or more properly
speaking, 10 make reasonable pa
geant out of the affair, has apparently
stirred the rebel heart down that way
to its profoundest depths of rancor and
resentment. The following extract
from an editorialin which the Calves
ton NelOs speaks OF the funeral day,
reveals something of certain under
tone of popular feeling ut the South,
which is beginning more and more
openly to find expression.
1.-THE general gloom which pervaded
every Southern heart, together with the
drapery of mourning floating from
every house, serving as triple remin
der that we We're slaves and conquered.
and forbidden to follow In an appropri-
ate manner our own dear dead, will
cause the 18th of january to be ever re-
membered by the Galvestonians as a
sad, sad day. God be thanked that the
pure, brave spirit of Gen. Albert Sid
ney Johnston did not survive tho war,
TO be insulted by an arbitrary military
power, sustained and encouraged by a
fnnatical Congress.

deserves to be encouraged, is highly
amused at the contest, since appear
anceS are that there can be no agree

startled by a new nomination-"Flat-

"Flatwoods" was carried in the Senate.

describes "Flatwoods":

Legislators cannot get on without COM

THE New York Round Table con-
tinues its attacks upon democratic gov
eminent. 1t fully agrees with the re-
cent declaration OF Prof. Blackie, of
Edinburgh, that wherever the govern
ment of numbers tiourishes "there
we find the rank hot bed of
cOnceit, insolence, vain confidence.
irreverence and hollow preten-
sion of all kinds" and it finds album
dant illustration and proof in the pres
ent condition Of things in this country.
The radical difficulty about democracy,
as the Round Table looks Mt it, is that
you cannot keep it within any assign
able limits, or at any lasting equipoise. &"
The same thing may be said OF any and
every system of government, and it
will remain true so long as men are
imperfect in knowledge and goodness.
The very qualities of human nature
that make government necessary, rem
der it imperfect. But it cannot be de-
MED that men will do better for them
selves than others will do tor them.
