The PITTsYLyANIA MURDER-ARREsT or
THE SoN-IS-LAw OF DECEASED AND Hrs Con-
FEssION OF THE HORRIBLE CRlME.-We re-
,-nntly announced the murder of Dir. Joseph
+ anders.,". the father of Senator Ander-
son, Of PittsyIvania. lie had for or several
years slept ut night in his store. LII assas.
sin crushed in his skull with q club, wn,,..
was afterwards found with blood and hair
on it. The murder, of course, caused great
excitement III PittsylVania county, and
every effort was made to discover the per-
petrator.
The authorities We're aided in obtaining q
clue to the murderer by Internal Revenue
Detective Cole. During the examination
| before the coroner, James NJ. CONWAY, SON
in-laW OF the deceased, asked Detective Cole
| il he thought that the murderer of Mr..
Anderson could be discovered. Cole, who
| had already been impressed with the belief
that Conway was the guilty party, looked
him directly in the eye, and replied, in
effect, 81 know now who killed him ~
Conway was visibly affected 10y this re-
spouse. Cole reported this interview to the
sheriff and others, and expressed to them
his belief that Conway was the murderer.
The result was that Conway was arrested
and committed to Pittsylyania county Jail,
where he made full confession of the hor-
rible crime.
Among the circumstances which strength.
.ened the suspicious against Conway before
his arrest was the fact that he had borrowed
a considerable sum of money from bis
futher-in-law, and afterwards "took The
benefit OF the bankrupt act" in consequence

The Stamp Tax.

The new internal revenue law makes some
changes in the stamp tax. 1t repeats, after
the lst of October next, the stamp on re-
ceiptS for any sum of money or for payment
of any debt, and the stamp on promissory
notes "for 4 less sum than $780,"
This is very well as far rs it goes. But
Congress would have done better to have
repealed the whole stamp tax. 1t is awide
field for fraud and official delinquency. IN
this city some thirty odd cases of failure to
put the t,ro-cent stamp on receipts have
been ferretted out, ind parties have been
cited to appear to show what they could in
self.defencc for the grave omission. The
penalty indeed makes it grave for the de-
lnquent to the amount OF trO cents is
inflicted in the sum Of 50, which is simply
monStrous; for it ought TO be plain to all
that few if any would Intentionally fail to
stamp receipt. Like most ofthe pains and
penalties Of The Congress since the war, ii
is excessive. This is soon to be gotten rid
of; but the whole stamp tax is based on
the principle of excessive eXactions and eX
cesSive penalties.

TORNADO IN NEW YoRK.-Hudson, July
ia severe tornado, accompanied with
hail. passed over the county yesterday after
noon, doing serious damage to crops, fruit
trees, and buildings. In kin'erhook the
steeplc of the new Reformed church was
blown down, damaging the building over
$4,000. Other buildings were damaged to 4
considerable extent.
In Client the Reformed church was much
damaged, and glasses broken from num-
Der of other buildings. In Ancram there
was general havoc among hay stacks, fruit
trees, and grain large forest trees were up
rooted and fences swept away. A number
of workmen in the fields were seriously in
iured by hailstones. Nearly every town in
the county suffered more or less. 1t was
the scycrcSt gale that has visited the county
for twenty years.

Tuv Co,oRrp CApET.-The career of the
colorcd cadet ut West Point is not plea
SAINT one. The appearance Of such person
there is a source of trouble all around. The
ATTEMPT to force strange chicken ih'o u
brood is very similar. The hen is cnrase",
and flies at the stranger with venom, anu
the chicks refuse to recognize 1t save ny aii
inhospitabIe peck of the bill. The brood IS III

put he won't do this. He holds on, en-
couraged by outside hypocrites and enthu-
siasts. He writes whining and complaining

has done, or he would withdraw from COM
pany where he can never be recognized rs
an equal. What sort of officer of the army
would this complaining colored man make,
indeed?
The whole question is with the North.
We are only g lookers-on," and may merely
express an an opinion. The northern peo-
pie are not ready for social equality with
the negro, and if Congress wants to educate
negroes in the art of war, it will have to
establish black West Point. Instead OF
which it orders IN inquiry into the treat
ment of the colored cadet. The youth that
is fit to be educated TO lead the armies OF
the United States are never going to submit
to social equality with the African race, or
Chinese, or any of the inferior types OF
man. They will have to be educated sepa-
rately. The New York Herald suggests that
those ut West Point who don't like the ne
gro should resign. Very sensible sugScs-
ton, indeed, that would probably leave the
institution solely in possession of the ne
gro.
1t is a strange folly in which the Rcpubli-
can party has involved itself. 1tpresscs the
dogma of equality of races with regard to
the negro to the extreme of ohfensvcness to
the northern white race !; but when the
question turns upon the Chinese, Republic
cans deny them citizenship.

We do not understand why the Lynch
burg Republican should say "surely the
" Dispatch misrepresents the views Oh
Lieutenant MAuRy," when the Re
publican had the address of Lieutenant
MAusy in the same Dispatch that contained
the brief editorial allusion to it that forms
the text Of the Republicans comments. We
did not misrepresent those views, which
were precisely such as we described them
to be. Commodore MAURY said that " me-
"chanics, chemistry, electricity, and the
discoveries Of physical science, have
.splaced ut our service forces far more pow
"erful and effective than any which may
"be derived from the muscular power
'of man or beast" TO show the effect
upon the muscular labor of man by the i'm
provements in science and art, he goes on
to state many facts, among them that Great
Britain manufactures more than she ever
did, and Ia more prosperous than she ever
was: "Iet the distress among her labor.
"ing classes has never been more wide
"spread, though the nation has never had
"such avast amount of surplus products to
"spare," and he adds: "What does that
"mean but this? AS the powers Of man
cover the forces Of nature and the proper
"ties of matter are increased and enlarged,
sfhis use for the mere muscular strength Of
"his fellow, the demand for human bono
"and sinew without knowledge and with
s. out the skill which knowledge gives, be-
Sc comes less and less"
These are exactly the views which the
Republican says if we correctly represented
the Commodore rs maintaining, shows him
to be " less capable astounding the depths O
"political economy than of tracing the cur
"rent and marking the tides OF the 'Phy'
"sical Geography of the Sea-" And yet the
Rep.bytcan had the speech Of the Comma
dore before it, In which the whole argu.
meut appears. This position of the address
il ineontrovertible, and it undertakes to
point out the way to provide for the conse-
auences of the substitution ofmanuai labor
by the wonderful devices OF machinery.

Every infusion of Chinese will inevitably
injure every branch of industry and trade
upon which they enter all over the country.
The native mechanics will lose their occu-
pations, and we will get cheaper shoes, &c,
by beggaring thousands of lr own citizens
and their families. Finally, the Chinese
will vote. The more of them here, the more
certain that result will lie. The man who
