The Floral Offering.

The following communication is from
one of our most highly esteemed and in
telligent ladies'. As we are led to
think it represents the opinions of
many whose wishes should be respected,
we are not disposed to withhold our con-
currence:
EDIroRs LEDGER: As there is quite an
effort being made to have the floral GER
emony to take place on the Sabbath, In
stead of Saturday, as at first intended
and knowing that a goodly number in
this city are in the opposition, we do
most solemnly protest against it. First,
in the name of the Most High God
Maker Of heaven and earth-the Ruler
of the universe-who has said: My
glory will i not give TO another" See
that thou keep my Sabbaths and rever-
ence my sanctuaries; am the Lord. -
Now to the law and the testimonies.
What saith the Scriptures Can we open
the Bible, and in any part of it find a
Justification or shadow of pretext for
such a proceeding2 Are we q Bible
reading, Sabbath-keeping people 1--WE
used TO be esteemed as such; or are we
not fast becoming so demorslized, SO
mongrelized that we are in danger Of
yielding up the very last vestiges Of our
distinctive civilization. Are we to close
the doors of the Sanctuary, set aside the
worship Of God, and go with badges
and regalia" to the city of the dead,
sacred though it is-aud the occasion,
holy and just and right though it is.
Are we 10 do thing so unheard of in our
community Would the writer in yes
terday's issue Of the LEDGER, and in the
appeal Of last Friday, on this subject,
call upon or expect those numerous
societies TO march with regalia to the
Cemetery" on a week day2 We have
had two Of those solemn and interesting
ceremonies, and such q thing was moi
even suggested. Why2 simply because
those we're business days; men could
make money, and the calls of Msnmor
could ne, possibly be set aside-but thii
time it happens TO come on the Lord
day, and We can all 60. "Will a mai

happy past in the land where we ver,

viding that any amendment to the Con-
stitution shall first be adopted by the

A Little Common Sense.

The New York Times, a very clever
sheet, but very much given to- skirmish-
ing and shy fighting, generally expresses
some Just views when it for a time
abandons the line Of smoothing over the
errors and outrages of the dominant
party, aud addresses itself to the discus
sion of principle. In the Thursdays
issue of that paper, the following para
graphs appear in long editorial. They
are truthful and worthy of reflection, but
will fall upon unwilling ears. Who
thinks at the North now2
"We fought four years, sacrificed half
million of lives, and burdened our
selves and our posterity for many genera
tions to keep them 1.-THE South in the
Union. What was all this for2 To
strengthen the nation, certainly not to
weaken it. To add to its wealth, to en-
large its industry, to develop its re-
sources, to perfect its free institutions,
and to enhance its benefcence at home
and its influence abroad. Unless these
ends are to be accomplished, unless the
Uuion is to be the stronger, frmer, and
more prosperous for having the South as
part of it, the country made mistake
in crushing its attempt to get out
"And is there not some reason TO fear
that, as things now stand, the Union is
really weaker with the South than it
would be without it2 Do the Southern
States contribute now very much to its
wealth, its commerce, it's prosperity 2 Do
they give us aid in bearing the burdens
of taxation? Do they strengthen the
credit of the nation in the markets Of the
world? Do they aid in impressing upon
the people of other nations a sense of the
superior blessings, the higher, broader,
and more assured freedom Of republican
institutions, than of those under which
they themselves are accustomed to live 2
This needs no comment. 1t covers the
whole ground. But the rulers of this
nation have no stomach for such stuff as
truth and reason. The offices-the offices
the power and pap of the government;
these override judgment, justice and
humanity. When they are all gathered
in-in "two or three years" as Seward
might say-those who misgovern the land
may listen to the unreasonable Gem
plants Of. ruined nation Richmond

Mr.. BartIetf's Argument ON the I'm
come Tax.

The North is beginning to squirm
against the variety of unconstitutional
legislation. As to the matter of taxes,
the independence of the South is nearly
achieved. The North makes the laws,
and is welcome to pay the taxes. When
bad government reduces the value Of our
property down from one hundred to ten,
there is satisfaction at least to know that
a hundred must pay ten times more taxes
than ten. The New York Herald has the
following:
We publish to-day, in another part Of
the paper, an able article from one of
the ablest lawyers in the country, show
ing the unconstitutionslity of the income
tax. The writer first quotes the Consti-
tuition, which provides that representa-
ton and direct taxes shall be appor-
toned among the several States secord-
ing to their respective numbers. re
shows that this article was very carefully
considered by the trainers of the Constr
tuition, and then goes on TO prove, BY the
highest legal authorities, that the income
tax is direct tax in the meaning of the
Constitution. Having established this
noint. he asks: as the income tax so APP
portioned r. Here he has no difficulty Of
proof; for we all know that one Congress
sional district of New York pays larger
amount of this tax than some of the
largest States or than the whole South.
A hundred thousand people in New York
city pay more than millions elsewhere;
and, as the writer Of the article referred
10 says, the State Of New York pays
eleven millions Of dollars year more
than Il ought 10 pay according TO the con-
stitutional rule of apportioning direct
taxation TO population. Theincome tax
is most unjust, unequal, inquisitorial,
corrupting to the community, antago-
nistic to our republican system of gov
eminent, and clearly unconstitutional
The people generally, and of this State
particularly, upon whom the tax weighs
most heavily, should demand its repeal.
The day was when to show law wrong
or unconstitutional was Sufficient to as
sure It's repeal. But now that the ques-
ton what is right, is not even asked any
more, and that support of the Constitu-
ton is by the weaker party, and violation
is BY the Radical and stronger, and now
that might alone makes right, what is the
sense of snivelling in New York about
right and wrong and constitutional law ?
The New Workers had better make up
