x PROFESSIONS.

1t may be constitutional. but it certain
ly cannot be regarded as absolutely right
to tax a profession. 1t is less SO when
there is no assessment upon other avoca-
tions. The late Ubiquitous legislature pass
ed a law taxing lawyers twenty-five dol
lars and a half-counties have the right
to lay the same tax. and town corporations
can do likewise. These taxes with the adj
dition of ten dollars from the government,
amount to seventy-seven dollars fifty cents.
But few lawyers are able to pay this sum,
and,pay the necessary expenses of living
1t amounts almost to a prohibition, and is
an unwise and and oppressive enactment,
because it is discriminating legislation.
Income should alone be taxed, and men be
: compelled to contribute to the support of
their government in proportion to their
actual earnings, in money paid. AS a
general thing, lawyers are under the ne
cessity of indulging their clients and wait
ing for their fees, until the disposition of
their suits. The farmer, mechanic trades
man, &c, are taxed according to income,
and why not the lawyer, who is generally
of that class of men least able to stand ex-
orbbitant taxation. We hope the incom-
ing legislature will have the good sense
to repeal this scandalous and unjust law.

THE DUTY OF THE NEXT LEG
lSLATURE.

If the next Legislature does its duty, ii
will at once make a clean sweep of the leg
~islation of its predecessor. Every honest,
intelligent, well thinking man, regardless
of party demands it. Every interest of the
State, financial, commercial and education
al, demands it. Honor, integrity and respect
for our character at home and abroad de-
mand it. Civilization and christianity
demand it. Justice, with a million
tongues, demands it. The whole people,
rich and poor, high and low. black white
and mixed, and the young and old; yea
all nature animate and inanimate demand
that the foul stain shall be blotted from
our escutcheon. Will the incoming leg
~islature prove a Hercules to cleanse the
Augean stables of our State Government
is the question revolving in the mind and
falling from the lip of every one interest
ed in the public welfare. This is expect
ed and demanded. Shall we be disappoint-
ed and refused? We hope not.

THE WAR.

81 The bloody war that has devastated the
fairest fields of Europe, has been conclu-
ded, and its two mightiest kingdoms,
France and Prussia. are at peace. The
terms of peace are much more %lenient and
conciliatory, than could have been reason
ably expected after such a bloody and ter
rife warfare.
The indemnity demanded by Prussia,
is only three hundred and twenty thousand
sthalers, or two hundred and fifty millions
of dollars in our money. The territory
is no larger than at the beginning exacted
by the Germans, namely, the whole OF
Alsace and Lorraine, with the fortresses OF
Metz Nancy and Strasburg. The pride and
feelings of the French we're respected by
the Germans, and in desisting from march
ing through their capital and making any
demonstrations of joy over their humil.
iation.
The Germans nave exhibited a magma.
ninity and disinclination to make cruel
exactions which is something new in the
"anpals of European conflicts. and is the
browning honor and glory of Prussian vic.
tories, and e~minently worthy of the strict
rest imitation.
What kind of government will Franc,

SURE u OF WEALTH.

We have always st%renuously maintained
that the prosperity and advancement of
our country depended almost entirely up
on the development of its natural resour-
ces. We shall never grow weary in i'm
pressing the importance of this fact upon
the minds of our readers, and in the eff
fort, by the p~lainest argument, of induc-
ing them to enter upon the work. We
have a soil adapted to every kind of pro-
ductive growth, and a climate SO mild and
genial as to insure their full maturity
The exhaustless supply of the richest and
most valuable minerals, invite the hand of
industry. and the capital of enterprise
Notwithstanding all this, what is being
done to improve our lands, introduce new
productions and throw our ores INTO the
commerce of the world. There is no rea-
son why we should be poor, for there is
every reason why we should be rich, if the
unstinted gifts of nature can make a peo-
pie rich, if availed with energy and de-
termination. We complain loudly of the
scarcity of money-our inability to pay
taxes, debts, and support schools, whilst
at the same time, we, as a general thing,
are doing literally nothing to remove these
financial embarrassments. Let US 60 to
work at once and in earnest, determined
to concentrate our energies to the devel-
opement of the natural wealth with which
God has SO ~abundantly blessed us. There
VIC shall have no grounds of complaint be-
cause of poverty, if we have any now, and
thrift and progress will every where be
manifest. School houses, colleges and
churches will dot onr plains and villages !;
we will have improved machinery of every
character. Good roads will ramify in ev-
cry direction of the country, and railways
will be constructed to meet every demand

THE BLOODY DECADE.

lss Most probably, the last ten years will
be noted in history as the Bloody Decade
of the nineteenth century. Many attempts
of subjugation have been made, and many
enormities perpetrated by the nations of
the earth. The flames of war nave swept
over fair lands destroying their beauty
and prosperity, making them one wide
spread scene of ruin and desolation. In
almost every quarter the bayonet and
sword have sheathed their cruel steel in
human flesh. Cntold crueltiesss have tor
tured the human race, and countless hearts
have bled with unspeakable agonies.-
Naughty and intolerant Spain crushed
the brave Cubans. and their sentiments for
liberty and independence. France sent
her unmanagaeble rabble to Mexico, and
in blood attempted the crime of erecting
the Macmillan Empire.
q Our own beloved land was cursed with
q war of frightful and unparalleled pro-
portions, in which a million and n half of
men were sacrificed. The plains OF france
still smoke with awful hecatombs of slaugh-
ared thousands. France cries to the world
CT food. and weeps over her vast ac-
lmulation of woes. Beyond the Rhine,
les Prussia, weakened by the struggle
nd also filled with mourning. The earth
. crimsoned with blood, and deformed by
he CHASTITY ravages of human passions.
lore money has been expended in slaugh-
,er than for the promotion of literature,
and the arts and sciences. This is the
ledger of the Last decade. This the heri-
tage it has bequeathed to its successor.
Man is the great enemy of himself. He
writes his history in his own blood, and
seeks his fame in precipitating his W
ruin. Most especially has this been exem-
pli6ed, in marking the last ten years with
blood and crime.
