the rights Of the States.--Eaqa'i'er.
Not so. Here is the report of the decision
as it was telcgraphcd from Washington:
"Thc Supreme Court holds that the statute
of MARYLAND is in violation of that clause OF
the Constitution which guarantees to the cut
zcns of each State all the rights. privileges,
&c. of citizens in the several States, ana thal
it IS therefore void; but the view Is taken INIT
il is not violation OF the commercial cause
of the Constitution if the tax on residents ana
non-rcsidcnts is equally laid
In brief. the court decides that fax upon
e,mn,e merchants or commercial travellers
IS constitutional, but tax upon them DE-
cause they are (oras) noii-residcntS is not con-

Of the Richmond members upon the PROPOSE

issue of bonds under the funding bill. 1t is
unjust in tint papcr to infer Il want of SYM

Virginia The Wing is very unfair in the
same paragraph i'll 50 constituting al article in
this paper Us TO make it offensive to the peo-
pie Of the state The object Of that article,
as its language plainly showed, was to cheer
the people OF Nirginla--to call their attention
to the bright prospects of this city, based
upon her approaching intercourse with the
thrifty people of the West, and to assure them
that through this city they would share the i'm
Incnse benefits of that intercourse. That was
all. The idea of Wanting our independence
OF the State was never dreamed OF. The flct
Is, we are not independent OF the State; but,
b. the help Of the rich commerce of the
West, Richmond will grow more rapidly
than Il she depended wholly upon Virginia,
AMI Virginia will thereby derive. all the
greater benefit from Richmond The popu-
lation Of no metropolis is more devoted TO
their State than are the people of Richmond.

REGISTERING A LEITER.-A citizen went in
to the postofice at Clarksvillc, on Friday, says
the Roanoke Valley with money letter to be
registered The postmaster got down his big
envelope, his blanks, his pen and lux, his book
Of instructions, brakes Plantation Bitters
almanac, with Mrs Winslow's Soothing Syrup
receipt-book. Then he drew up his stool and
sat down. Citizen told him, MIR Postmaster,
| am in hurry; please be as quick asyou can.
P. NJ. said, ''Well, you must give time to do it
right. Postmaster went to spelling over his
instructions, examining the blanks &c, but he
could not make it out; then he looked in Drake q
Plantation Bitters almanac to see what day of
the month it was; then he looked in Mrs: Wins
lows receipt t-book to see if there was any re-
ceipt for registering letters, but he found no
comfort there the citizen said: ''Mr. Post
master, can you tell me how long will have to
wait p. NJ. replied: You must give he
time to do it right But p NJ. had to ac-
knowledge at last that he could not do it at all.
The gentleman took his letter and money home
again, and wrote to the parties that he had
tried to get a letter registered, but could not,
aud the mails by our route are too unsafe to
send without registering We congratulate
