Pho roman, If taxes on manuctures. effect

The repeal OF taxes on mannctures, eHect-
ed during the last session of Congress, is
dyelt upon as mistake, embarrassing the
Government and benehtlng the manu1ac-
turers rather than the consumers. Inc
latter class, he thinks, will experience no
relief until there is corresponding re.
duction of the tariff. Nevertheless, 1t Will
be impracticable to attempt to restore
these taxes in the face OF the opposltlon
which would be made. Therefore he re-
commends a tax ON sales to make gooo Ine
loss of revenue from the tax on manufacco
lures. The average annual expenses OF
the Government, including interest, ne
believes, can be kept within 5O,OoO,Voo;
and the receipts ought not for the presenoe
to exceed $500, 000,0 00-the S50,0o0,UOo

Let strife come, an she will TOtwav
Before evening on the following day the fnll
particulars Of the surrender had reached the
city. On the first train had come some of the
paroled prisoners. These had brought def.
mite intelligence of the twelve days siege: and
on the Union side who had fallen. and who
still lived to add their own modification and
regret to the general grief at the terrible dis
aster.
Throughout the city, those who were Of
Union sentiment were inconsolable at their
losses; nor was this regret confined exclusively
to the federals. There were many Confeder.
ates who mourned a friend or brother lost
among those who had fallen on the Union
side. Among the list of the dangerously
wounded, Colonel Taylor saw, with profound
emotion, the name of the brave Colonel r
w. Grover. In the fercest of the FIGHT and
whilst leading his regiment with conspicuous
gallantry, the heroic soldier the steadfast
friend, fell to rise no more. His wound was
mortal, though he fingered for DAYS and
weeks and closed his eyes at last. surrounded

gallantry
Nor was this the only one. Further on. q
name appeared which made the brave old
man shiver with awe. Silently he handed
the paper to Laura and Zera, who were sitting
by his side, and pointed to the name which
had made his heart stand still.
Yes-there it stood in conspicuous tvpe. a

The heart sunk in their bosom with repret-
sorrow brooded over each face as they read

with enthusiastic applause by the Denoc-

isheeerd,a manner in Which Mr. Pendle-
ston himse5la has endorsed Mr.. Seymour,
as the champion pss she white mans party,
ut is scarcely possible that even the most
: ardent admirers of the former will offer
any opposition to the latter Had Mr..
Rendleton received the nomination, his
supporters must admit that he would have
;had to accept, as ne has accepted
.the declaration of principles laid down in
the platform put forth by the Cor7ention
An this respect, therefore, heana Mr Seq
mour occupy the same ground Like those
great leaders of the Democratic party,
Wright and Marcy, Mr. Seymour is
a man of the highest order Of talent, un-
questionable craftsmanship. and unsQllied
Integrity in his private relations The
7cnsungtances under which he was nomi-
mated give pecuilar strength to his claims
previous TO the meeting Of the Convention
land during its session, Mr. Seymour had
..persistently refused to permit his name to
be presented in connection with the presi-
:.dency. 1t was not until, under the rigid
application of the tWo,tlirds rule, it was
@ascertained that none Of those who had
gbeen shalloted for could receive the nom
:ination, tina. ali eyes were tarnet to Mr..
-. and ehs Mas unanimously chosen the
,stsassara .aearer of the great Democratic
party, Notwithstanding his earnest appeals
to his friends to withdraw his name.
No man ever came before the American
lpeople with fairer political record, a pp-
trer character, or brighter chance for sue
cess. than Mr. Seymour Whilst be was
not our first choice, we cheelfuN7 accept
him as the representative Of the principles
put forth in the platform which will be
found in our columns to-day, and if we
had vote, would support him with all our
energies. If the negro-supremacy consti-
tuition to be submitted to the people ~
August shall be defeated, as we have no
doubt it will be and aught to be, it is
scarcely possible that Virginia will be ere
constructed in time to give Der voice in
the next presidential election yet, in view
of all possible contingencies, it is the duty
of the white men of this State to organize
and prepare for the coming contest.
