favored the multitude Of patriotic people
annually charged with the duty Of saving
their country, than was last Tuesday.
Still, the vote WAS quite light. The prin-
eipsl interest conferred on local candidates,
and tickets were wonderfully ''scratched"
and "split." Not one ticket in every si1
voted, by either party, was entirely
"straight." It is safe to say that seven
teen thousand tickets were printed for use
in this county, casting less than three
thousand votes. The day passed quietly,
without any fights, drunkenness or arrests.

The Sun claims 10 be informed TINT the
proposition submitted by General Sickles,
orl,y Nj. Paul Forbes, as tho special agent
Of the State Department, to Regent Ser
sano, relative TO Cuba. was in substance
that Spain should forthwith xecognize the
independence OF Cubn, under tho govern
ment Of Cespedes; that Cnba should become
bound for the payment OF q specific sum as
compensation to Spain for the Withdrawal
Of her authority; that bonds Of the Cuhan
Government shall be issued therefor, guat-
anteed By the United States; that an Ar1nis-
tioe shall Immediately be declared between
the Spanish and insurrectionar3 forces;
that the Spanish shall withdraw 81 soon as
the t1ipartlte treaty is duly ratified BY
Spain, Cuba, and the United States, and
that in default Of the acceptance Of these
terms the United States will without
further delay recognize the Independence
Of Cuba" The Last quoted item is egi-
| deruy untrue, as it would bo equally mil
0dr cit in diplomacy to accompany 80 deli
cate an offer by so gross threat, and
absurd in law to make Spaints refusal to
sell her island ground for Recognizing
the independence OF Cuba, when VIC were
| not Otherwise prepared. to accord even
-belligerent rights to the Cuban insured
tionists. The remaindar Of these terms
seem moro probable.

The WhlAkey manufacturers are again at
work preparing united prayer that the

will not deceive the country. This prop
osition has two motives. The present tax
is too small to admit Of any corruption Of
the Federal ofhcinls By division Of it, and,
consequently, the tax is mainly collected

Is, therefore, no constitutional limitation
on the power Of Congress whatever, except
that it would not be competent for Congress,
without constitutional amendment, to
remove the capital to any point
without first obtaining from
the State in which it should be located d
cession to the United States Of district
not exceeding ten miles square, including
the capital Such cession conveys Nero
ly exclusive Legislative jurisdiction. not the

restore to Maryland its State jurisdiction

TAXATION rRICKs IN M1gsIss,ppr

The Memphis ArnancAe, good rebel
authority, thus describes the system Of tax
sstion on industry imposed on TINT State by
the rebel planters Of the johnson Recon
strucsion Convention, with the clear intent
TO make the laboring class pay Ill the State
taxes, the colored portion Of the laboring
class paying far the largest share:

The -Aeaznntht might have added that
while batbers, draymen, hc~, most Of whom
are colored, n1e taxed often more than
their annual Eent, the lawyers, phyaicians
and clergymeu, who are nearly all white,
pay Little or no taxes in connection with
their business. But there is m easy sene-
dy for the nbove. Let the Republican
party, which represents the working clAsses,
get control Of the State at the next cleo
ton, and then let them show tho landed
aristocracy, not an acre Of whose land ia to
lease or for sale to colored men, trick in
taxation worth two, four or si1 Of that un-

them tax the l3,000-acre plantations, say
one mill per dollar on their value for the
first thousand acres, ten mills Per dollar on
the second thousand, per cent on the
third thousand acres, s per cent on the
fourth thousand, 10 per cent CD the fifth
thousand. ard 80 On, upon sliding scale
somewhat like our income taI This
will soon bring tho land mouopolists to their
milk, and will Cause every holder Of moro
than ono thousand acres in Mississippi to
divide up his plantation and offer q part

Of the State and would benefit al1 classes,

Whoever wants more ia land uonopolist,
and Of Ill oppseeso1s Of industry they axe
the wort. The effect Ct such system ot
taxation would be to not only cut up the
large plantations and facilitate their pur.
chase by Andless 1aborers aud tho rapid
settlement Of the State, but it would cause
the very class who hare been sh1tking theil
taxes for few yeara past to pay all The
