THE Shenandoah Faley says of Extra
Billy Smiths speech at New Market, that
it was a shining structure of graceful
symmetry and noble proportion, with the
political philosophy and all those eternal
and immutable truths which enlightened
the venerable statesmen of our country's
pure and primitive times for a basis, and
with a superstructure glowing in brilliant
contrasts, sparkling occasionally with
spontaneous wit, and laundering, now and
then, with most indignant invective against
the base corruption and heather inhumani-
ty of our W degenerate days, that etc."
with half a mile more of the same sort.)
Now, we confess, if we have any weakness,
it is that Of admiration for occasional fine
writing. We admire it in our ~neighbors
almost as much as we do in %ourself, and
would not withhold our admiration from
our contemporary up the Valley any sooner
than We would from orr nearest neighbor
in the city. But really a "structure of
symmetry" and a "superstructure
now "sparkling with wit" and amor
6 laundering with indignant inyective," is
altogether too much for our appreciative
admiration, even if our scholarly neighbor
of the Wing does copy it as a specimen of
fine writing Haul in your metaphvrical
horns up in the Valley, or your splendid
political structures will come tumbliag
down in spite of the g eternal and everlast-
ing bases y on which they stand.

THE opponents Of the Administration
talk Of the defalcations and robberies UNI
der it. Now, see how brief q statement
shall constitute its triumphant vindication.
Of all the internal taxes assessed since
Grant came into power, charged to collec-
tors as so much cash on hand, only one-
tenth part of one per cent. remains un-
paid. And if from this be deducted what
is good and will be paid, there will remain
only one-fiftieth Of one per cent. So of
the entire sum of customs duties collected
under this Administration amounting to
S55s, 900 900, only one-fifty-fifth part of
one per cent, or $4,000 altogether, has
failed to reach the Treasury. Is that a re-
cord which can be equalled? And is it
not a complete reply to critics?
