We find from an examination of the ap-

General Assembly just adjourned are about
as follows as per appropriation bill:
For per diem, members and clerks, $50, ,272 81

To this amount some three or four thou

The rate fixed for 1872, (4O cents in view
of the reduction of taxes generally, will
not probably yield a revenue greater than
81 ,400,0 600 from all sources. This will be
the assessment, and then, of course, a
great amount will not be collected. Out tof
arrearages, however, enough may be col
lected to cover the commissions for collect
ing the tax of 1872 and the releases and
insolvent lists. Going upon the hypothe
sis that every dollar of the assessment for
1872 will be paid in by January, 1873, or
that sum, rather, realized from taxes prior
to 1872, and including that year, let us see

subject: The American nation is not
SO poor that it cannot buy ground for

reckless that it will lesYs the title to
the ground where thousands of its

mean that it will trust to the ghosts of

graves by soaring away the rightful
owners of the land; nor SO petty in its
ideas of justice that, out of all the
South, it will select one estate and lay
its strong hand upon it as punishment
for the war ; mol so undignifed that it
will attempt to hold a cemetery for its
dead defenders by a tax title, aequir.

srty by force of arms. If We are to

erts of all to cover it. /. is evident, by
the appeals to feelings, that the Gov
eminent has no valid title to the Ar,

principles
1. That while we acknowledge the

manship of those patriots who laid
broad and deep the foundations ofthis
government, securing ut once the
rights of the States severally and their
inseparable union by the Federal Con-
stitution, we would not merely gsrnish

srs, but we do hereby renew our sol
emn pledge Of fealty to the Imperish.

2. That the traffic in Intoxicating

ests of society, a political wrong ofun-
squalsd enormIty. subvsrsive of the
ordinary objects Of government, not
capable of being regulated or restrain
ed by any system of license whatever,
but i~mperatiTely demanding for its
suppression effective legal prohibition

ton.
5. Thatin view of this, and inssmueh
as the existing political parties either
oppose or ignore this great and para
mount question, and absolutely refuse
to do anything toward the suppression
of the rum traffic, which is robbing the
nation of its brightest intellscts, des-
troying its material prosperity, and ra-
pidly undermining its very founda-

object the entire suppression of the

while we denounce all reputation Of

the principles of the Declaration of In

prominence to other political issues.
5. That a Central Executive Commit

shall be to take such action as in their
judgment will best promote the in
terests Of the party.
