HANaED.-On Friday last. "a tho Cr;m;. :.

and Samuel Fl. Poston were sentenced
to be hanged. by Judge Flippin, for the
murder of Vlrglnian, named Schof1eid
IN Cuba County, about u year ngo.
Judge Flippiu then spoke as follows:
Samuel II. Foston, This is one OF the
saddest cras in my life. Our parents

cnt with my official duties, would tbnt
this cup could pass from me-. But I
cnnnot now shrink from tho performances
OF this sad md Official rcquircmopt. aud

though other victims may full to nvelee

tenco OF tho court that yon be- remanded

~, within ono milo aud h,lf of tho
court house OF said County, and then 10
nc hanged by the neck until you are
dead may God have mercy on your
soul" ~
When Poston was called, both the
Judge and Poston wrro very mncl,
moved. Poston shook like an aspen leaf
and had to grasp chair for suppoft.
At tho conclusion Of tho sentence, Judge
flippln WAS in tears, as was also neurIv
all the largo crowd gathered there. Il
was n most affecting scene, and will over
DC remembered by those WHO Witnessed
it.

Board of Education has adopted the follow
ing
"Whereas, from returns in this Office it
appears that some school districts in the
State have failed to vote "a tax for district
school purposes; therefore be it
'sResolred, That if in any such case the
means are raised by private subscription or
otherwise for furnishing school-houses, fur
niture, apparatus, textbooks for INDECENT
children, pay of the board of trustees, and
all other means and appliances, needful for
the successful operation of the schools, then
the State funds may be apportioned to the
district, Just as if the tax had been voted
provided, that in all such cases satisfactory
evidence must be furnished this board, by
the certificate of the trustees and the coun-
ty superintendent, that the provision made
is just and impartial, and such as will Sc
cure the benefits of the school system to
the people, as required by the constitution

OUR NATIONAL FINANCES AS COMPARE
ED WITH THOSE OF EUROPE.

ASD vsAAA AAAO1AS VI A<CANOh A<s
We must not judge Of the comparative
credit of our government abroad altogether
by the relative quotations of our bonds and
those Of foreign governments. No, sensible
man or capitalist, we suppose, doubts that
the government of the United States is as
stable as any in Europe. In fact, looking
at the condition of things in Europe, the
United States government has a more con-
servative basis than most governments there.
Then, as to the comparative resources and
ability to pay, the American republic
stands in the first position. a. No one
can doubt our ability TO pay the
debt, even within ten or fifteen years,
when it is, considered that with all
the vast expenditures of the war and
liquidation Of an enormous amount Of float
ing Indebtedness we have paidsoR upwards
of hundred millions Of the principal year
ly. There is no apprehension that the
United States cannot or will not pay every
dollar of the debt. The reason our securi-
ties are not higher abroad-that our skies
do not bring much more in the market than
the British three or three and half per
cent. consols-must be found in other
causes. One of these causes is, as we
have stated, the greater value of money
in America, and, consequently, the price
of the bonds in our own markets. Another
is the abundant supply Of these bonds
in European markets, a supply which which has
been greater than a steady demand, and
that has been forced by the necessity Of
sending SO many abroad to make. up the
balance of trade against u.s. If wei were
less extravagant, imported less goods and
exported more produce, and if the profits
of shipping were more in our favor, we
should soon see AN appreciation IN our
securities. The notion that is most wealthy
and economical, that keeps the balance
of trade in its favor, and obtains the
greatest profits from commerce, mu must
hold other nations under financial con-
troll and subjection. Then The want Of a
permanently organized and consolidated
debt is always disadvantage with regard
to the market value Of It. Our whole
financial system needs to be- placed on Q
better foundation and to be under the man
agement of abler men. The resources d
the country are surprisingly abundant and
the credit of the government, intrinsically
is good enough. All we want is better
revenue system, an economical administers
ton and an able finance minister in thu
treasury department. ,..,,.

POLITICAL PARTIES.


All indications point to reorganization
of parties at no distant day. We are &C
customed to look upon all institutions
around us as permanent, and to cling tt
forms and creeds in politics, as in religion
long after the occasion which gave them
birth has passed. The expanding life o.
society leads to constant rebellion against
these rigid forms and organizations. e '
A political party is simply an organiza.
ton of men, to accomplish some end which
is reached by legislation. That end ac-
complished, the party would naturally
either disband or reorganize, by adopting
some new work. 1t has been found a con-
venient instrumentality for effecting results
and associations which bind the members
together; so there is reluctance to disband.
1t is not good economy either, to throw en-
tirely away the bridge that has carried us
safely over; for while its timbers are sound
and its bolts hold them together, it may be
used again. So we instinctively cling to
parties which have been the exponents Of
great and living principles, and brought
together, out of the masses of the people,
men of similar tastes, interests, and pur-
suits. -,
Thus the party name and organization
survive the work which first called men to-
gether. This, however, will not long retain
coherency in any body of men. There
must always be the magnetism of a great
purpose to give party permanence and
enable it to sway the destinies of people.
And this can only be maintained by keep
ing itself in advance Of the average develop
ment of its time; not too much but far
enough Ito lift its members. steadily to
higher levels in the upward progress Of the
race. Like the march of conquering
army, it must never pause to recount its
victories or indolcntly rest on its laurels.
1t must boldly push forward its standards
into new fields of achievement. When
ever old abuses block up the pathway of
man it must send forward its pioneers to
clear the way. Whenever innocence and
weakness lifts its helpless hand against
power and oppression then its surried
ranks should burst upon the foe like
a thunderbolt. 3ri req s'''ss
b If party would make itself great and
permanent, it must be positive and con-
structive. The new wine of progress must
rot be found within the old cracked bottles
of Conservatism. We are to ask ourselves
what is the work of to-day? if we would
work wisely and build, so that the ages shall
bless and be blessed for our working. The
business of the Republican party is to dis
cover what the people need to reach the
highest prosperity and well being, and ad-
dress itself earnestly to the work of provi-
ding for those needs, It must accept and
vigorously assert this as its mission. Fear
less and alert, looking on all sides Of all
questions fearlessly, it must be bold, ag-
gressive, and filled with love and zeal for
the country, for truth, and for universal
humanity. Then it will be strong with all
the strength of the worlds growth, and no
power can prevail against it.

Dangerous Sastatiom.--Ab bout 10 O'Clock
on Saturday night, colored man fell from
the Danville railroad bridge, near. Vaux-

of a tree hanging over the water where he
hung until near daylight Sunday morning,
when he was rescued by some gentlemen
who, in passing over the bridge, heard his
cry for assistance. His position was dis
tressing. If he let go he would drown, to
hold on was terrible. He preferred the
latter, thereby proving his love of life. .s

For Veal or Woe This evening, at s
o'clock, in the office, in this city, of Grants
policy man, Raleigh Z. Daniels, ESQ.,, will
assemble some of the ablest political talent
of the State, to determine the policy of the
Democratic party to be pursued in the fall
campaign. No feature will be so lamenta-
BILE to us, as an admirer of the old Whig
party of Virginia, as to see Old Line Wings
cheek by jowl with Democrats, who, in
days past, were regarded as unfit associates
for those 'swho recognized each other by
the instincts of gentlemen The at
tempted destroyers of free government are
now arm and arm with those who struggled
so manfully against their rebellious efforts.
Is, 8 'Tis true, and at present there is no help
for it. The Wings have been cajoled into
an association distasteful to them, and
which, but few years ago, would have
been spurned from them as vipers and
scorpions. ''Politics make strange bed
fellows'--ride Hunnicutt and others.
Whatever is done, will be of an united
and harmonious conduct, so in contrast
with our own party, particularly here,
where we are divided and torn by conflict
ing interests. Let us gather from the ex-
ample of our adversaries fruit for rehec-
ton, and determine to close up ranks, and
give them in the fall another Appomattox
defeat. m ttieSs. go
