THE HEAD OF MIR. SUMNER.
From the Richmond Enquirer.

From the Richmond Enquirer.
Mr. Charles Sumner has gone up! What
difference does it make to us? The fall of the
great man may astound New England; but
the management of the Government is
such that we in Virginia feel little interest in
it. The idea which plain young men in the
South, who have grown up since 1860, have
of the United States Government is, that it
collects taxes and appoints outrage commit
tees. lot of hungry oreatures-strangers
to us-go around periodically assessing and
collecting taxes, prowling after whisky ana
tobacco, and, associated with this impress
sion, is vague feeling that spies and lying
wretches are gathering up testimony TO lay
before Congress with the object of giving us
fresh trouble and vexation. What part
or LOT has the South with trivial
exceptions) in the excellent Government
which we are said to enjoyp What represen-
tatien have we got? Northern papers talk
about ''the Southern Senators" and when
the matter is looked into, "the Southern
Senators" are Mr.. Warner, of Alsb anna, Mr..
Revels, of Mississippi, General Adelbert
Ames. of mississippi, Mr.. Sawyer, of South
Carolina, Mr. Harris, of Louisiana, Mr.. Abi-
iah Gilbert, of Florida, etc.-negroes and
carpet-baggers. In the House of Represen-
tatives South Carolina has the happiness of
being represented by four or five negroes;
and yet, at the instance of an imported
"Governor," the "Government Is preparing
to send troops down there to strengthen the
hands of the negro Legislature, which has
everything its own way.
MIR. Sumner or General Grant-it is all one
to u.s. Senator Morton is as bitter as the
dethroned chairman of the Senate Committee
on Foreign Affairs. The amount Of their
popularity in their estimation, depends on
which shall outstrip in the race of blackening
and prosecuting the South. The only inte-
rest we have in their quarrels is that it may
help certain people ''to get their dues"
Mr.. Summer has been at the head of the
Foreign Affairs Committee since 1868, and
we believe has exhibited very considerable
amount of ability in that position. He was
never absent from his seat in the Senate
has been always sober-is a man of hard
work-and has been the Robespierre of the
Revolution. 1t remains to be seen whether
bringing him to the guillotine will be an end
of the Reign of Terror.
MIR. Sumner is not an amiable man, and we
are afraid he is in a very bad humor He
obviously chung the wrong tom cat" when he
tackled Grant. The President never relin-
quishes purpose, and is reckless of expendi-
ture in obtaining his object. With all the
patronage at his disposal, the contest was O
very unequal one for Mr.. Sumner, who had
nothing to stand on but his irreproachable
propriety and his burning zeal as hatel
of the South. 1t was the leverage of ''tht
loaves and fishes" against influences purely
moral.

is A TARIFF A DEFENSIBLE FORM OF
TAXATION?

From the n. Y. World.
The Cincinnati Commercial, in comment
ing upon Mr.. j. S. Mills recent letter upon
protection in the United States, says: -"The
British have simplifed their revenue laws
but have not free trade, and America needs
above all things (after internal peace) free
trade for the legitimate development of her
natural resources. A distinction is here
made between the strictly revenue tariff of
Great Britain and free trade. The Cincin-
natl Enquirer has also taken exception in
no mild terms to the revenue tariff scheme
of the Free-trade League; and has even gone
so far as to denounce the league as "bond-
holding, aristocratic association because it
advocates duties upon tea, coffee, and sugar
-'the necessities of the poor man." And
lastly comes the New York Bulletin, with
arguments cDuohed in the ponderous Ian
guage of text. books and encyclopedias, to
show that all forms of tariff are necessarily
bad. AS the Bulletin presents arguments
and appeals to authorities In support of
its position, we devote this article mainly to
answering it, confident that while doing so
we are at the same time exposing the un-
tenableness of the ground occupied by
the Cincinnati papers. The BuHetin OBJ
jects to q revenue tariff as a means of
supporting the Government because it dis
eliminates and touches unevenly upon the
different classes of products; for it then
diverts capital and labor from those indus
tries which are naturally most remunerative
to others which are naturally less SO, thereby
producing disregard of the natural condi-
tions of production and involving q virtual
| waste of the labor of the country. For this
reason a discriminating tariff is the worst Of
all possible forms of impost, whether designed
for protection or revenue"
The answer to this objection is that a
strictly revenue tariff is one which taxes only
such articles as cannot be produced in any
quantity In the country levying the tariff, aud
that, therefore, capital and labor cannot, by
the operation OF revenue tariff, be diverted
into Improbable pursuits. The taxes upon
tea, coffee, tin, and spices have been enor-
nous for the last ten years, and yet there is
no domestic production of these articles, sim
ply because we have neither tropical heat nor
tin mines. The Badlletin, evidently seeing
the answer which can be so easily made to its
first obje ection, falls back on a second and
urges that 'ihe discrimination of one nation
against the products of another is an injury
to the country Disseminated against, dis
qualifying it for full reciprocal commerce
with the country making the discrimination. "
1t further says;-
| 'sOf course governments must be supported by
imposs on trade ana the only question with refer
20 the taxes Is how they can be 30 applied as
TO touch all branches OF production and trade most
evenly, produce the least possible derange-
ment In the natural relations OF the several branches
| OF business. We submit that as yet no plan has
been preposed which SO fully meets the case as that

for the innumerable ailments of the married
woman there is q mantel-shelf full of tonics,
elixirs, and bitters, German and
native, all warranted ''free from
drop of alcoholic mixture" Opium, in
its artificial and crude state, Is used
to an extent of which only physicians and
druggists are aware. We have no heart to
say one word of blame in view OF this dis
heaItening record. "The sensation OF sud-
den relief, says the Lancet, replacing acute
pain or nervous exhaustion, is exceedingly
grateful to tired end suffering women; and
Il is no wonder that by swift degrees they
come 20 seek with avidity for this kind of
oblivion" Whatever words of warning we
have to say to this class of women are
offered with the sincerest pity.
There is a class of female tipplers, how
ever, for whom we have little compassion and
no respect; the would-be fashionable matrons
and girls who not only drink themselves be-
cause they consider it en- Tegle to do SO, but
urge stimulants upon men, not knowing nor
caring whether it may not be death for them
to touch them. Intelligent people are learn
ing more of the physical effects of liquor. In
the best houses in New York and Washington
none was offered to the guests on last New
Years day-a significant hint, which the vul-
CARER ORDERS let us hope, will accept in
time. Familiarity with champagne brands
we assure these aspiring matrons, will not lift
them into the Brahmin class; and young
girl is never less attractive in the eyes of men
than when she personates a Bacchante.
Every man has secret, pure, gracious ideal
of a maiden and mother; and womanly
woman at the wssh-tub, in the market place,
or on the rostrum, does not destroy that
fancy. But the belle of the ballroom, whirl-
ing half-naked in an immodest dance, her
face unnaturally red, and the smell of liquor
on her breath-pah! "Give us an ounce of
civet, good apothecary, to sweeten our
imaginationsl"
