Sunday School with their Superintendent, James
Cross, the Mount Mary Sunday School, superin-
tended by S. Paxton, and the Locust Grove Sun
day School, superintendent by T. A. Clayton, to-

Schools, and general turnout by the surround

GEN. BEAUREGARD.-In relation to report
of speech of his, published in the N. Y Ex-
press published last week. Gen Beauregard has
addressed the following note to the Baltimore
Gazette:
Il notice an article copied from the New
York Express Of the 18th inst, in which certain
political opinions are stated to have been ex
prssed by me at a dinner given to me by friend
at the New York Hotel. The dinner was a
private one, and the state ment Of the Express,
being but brief and incomplete abstract of
the remarks which [ made whilst conversing
with the few friends present, conveys an
erroneous impression of the views expressed
by me on that OCCASION.
Being still an outlaw in my own native
country, do not feel called upon to publicly
uphold its Government especially at this time
when the country is divided in opinion as to
whether Congress or the Executive constitute
''the Government. But am free to state
that unless the conservative element of the
nation soon awakens to the dangers which
threaten the liberties of the country, [ confident
ly believe that its form of Government will, ere
long, be changed to military despotism, after
a period Of anarchy more or less prolonged.
Yours, very truly,
G. T. BEAUREGARD.

For the Spectator,
Subscription to the Railroad.

The County Court of Augusta, at its last
session, determined to submit to the vote Of the
people the question Of county subscription Of
100000 to the Central Railroad, or rather the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad. | object to
this whole system OF county and town subscrip-
tons to public improvements, as essentially
wrong The Legislature may properly appro-
pirate money raised by general taxation for OBJ
jects promotive of the general welfare. 1t is
the constitutional duty of that body to consider
and decide such matters. But upon what prin-
ciple can the practice be justified of authorizing
A, B and G to decide by their votes at the polls
that D and E shall be taxed for any purpose
whatever? The system is agrarian and vicious.
[, however, did not propose to discuss the
question of principle. The important matter
for us to decide is, whether we shall vote for
dollars is large sum- IF levied per capita,
each man, woman and child in the county would
pay about $40. Have we not taxes enough,
present and prospective, without assuming this
additional sum? Those who are flush of green
backs need only wait till our new government
is inaugurated, and they will be depleted to
their hearts content know it is said this is
only loan of credit, and the county will not
be required to pay the amount subscribed.-
But [ am incredulous, and predict that if the
subscription is ordered, every dollar Of the three
nun0feG thousand VIII sooner OF ldtGF Ue Wrung
out Of the people by the tax collector.
And wherefore should Augusta county sub
scribe for building Railroad to the Ohio river?
What good will the road do us? Some gentle
men who are interested in West Virginia lands
will undoubtedly be benefited. The State Of
West Virginia will derive great good from it.
But how are the people of Augusta to be COM
pensated for their expenditure? LII enhances
the value of their lands, the only effect Of that
will be to increase the amount of taxes at fu-
turc re-assessment Our people have nothing
but land left and very few have more than
they want to keep. The Railroad will not make
the lands more productive, or the products
more valuable. Far from it. The object of
the proposed Railroad is to open a highway
through the State for the teeming products of
the Mississippi Valley. The farmers of Au-
gusta will then come in direct and immediate
competition with those of the Great Vest
What good will that do them, or any body de-
pendent upon thems
This enterprise is presented to US as some
thing which is to promote our peculiar inter-
ests, and when [ am asked to invest my money,
I naturally ask how | am to be benefited
thereby. As citizen Of Virginia I heartily
approved in better times of appropriations from
the public treasury to CONSTRUCT the Coyiagton
and Ohio Railroad as a citizen of Augusta
county In these latter days, when nothing flu
ture is certain except high taxes, [ as heartily
oppose the assumption of any additional bur
den. \.

The Revolution.

The New York Herald is still crying out
against the mad and ruinous revolution, which
under the name of Reconstruction, is fasten-
ing untold horrors upon the country. 1t de-
clares:
Tossed about as we are in this political gale,
we turn to the man whose hand is at the helm.
From him we expect reform. The tide has
reached its flood. We have cursed the poor
negro by too rapidly elevating him and in the
coming reaction he will soon curse u.s. We
have done all this for political purposes In
the emancipation Of the blacks we have gone
so far that we threaten to enslave the white !;
all this to the grievous injury of BOTH The at
tack and defence of the one absorbing color
have given birth to two great attempts at die
tatorship-one by Mr.. johnson, one. by Con-
gress. The former was defeated by the latter !;
the latter must now be defeated by the former
This done, the battling political forces will come
to mutual concession and unity of action The
country may then take rapid march to union,
peace and a brilliant future. First, however
must be swept aside the division of executive
power as Congress tried to arrange it in the five
military relationships.
In his determination that he will defend his
branch Of the government Andrew johnson
is right and the nation, in its cooler moments,
must thank him. Sheridan broke loose from
executive control-from the control of his mill
tary commander. He is removed 1t is a
splendid lesson of discipline to the army. Gen.
Sickles, forgetting. in partisan feeling, his mil
itary duty, disobeys the orders of his superior
officer, and thus destroys the great principle
that gives an army force. 1t is right that an
example should be made Of him. The Presi-
dent has done the country service in removing
him. Would that throughout the whole ma
chinery of government the same rigid discip-
line were infused. The nation, now almost
breathless, might breathe free again. Woe to
North as we'll as South if these States are to
be cut into irresponsible military relationships
When Congress makes law in accordance with
our constitution they hand it to the Executive
power and say, 'There it is; execute it. -
Were he, overridden by military officers, to
prove unworthy the trust, then well might Con
gress impeach him. Let him sweep away fifty
district commanders, until he finds set who
can understand that they are responsible to the
Executive-the Executive to Congress-.
