The Auditors Circular.

We are glad that the Auditor has issued a
circular TO tax collectors In regard to taxing
commons for taxes and the collection OF taxes
nnan the same. lit shalt be found that the
school fund will be destroyed, or that the
State Government will be put in jeopardy OF
it's existence, by the law as it stands, the next
General Assembly can repeal it, with the
concurrence Of all men Of every party, or
raise the rate of taxation so rs to prevent in
Jury to either the State Government or the
public school system. We desire TO see the
law tested. We believe it will operate beau
tifully-that the State taxes will be ulor'
easily and more generally paid than ever oc-
fore. The coupons become currency. Ink
money Of the country viii not |"

foot up an amount almost equal 10 tiii'

in the State outside Of this city. Ihi' mono!

NOT be done. Coupons Will perform the
same function. 1t would be singular re-
sult if Richmond should next winter bc
found arrayed against the law and the eoun
trv in its favor. Anyhow, we wish 10 sec
the law tried for one year at least. Let

operation.

GENDER II GRAHMAR.-Wc have read arll-
Giles dispuraging English grammar because
it makes the gender of words depend upon
the gender OF the thing or person spoken OF.
Whilst in the Latin language, for instance,
tcrminational ca" may make thing TO he
of the fennininc gender instead OF the neuter,
in the English tie fact determines The
gender. Whilst in the French the sc per-
forms similar service to that performed hy
the ga" above named, and cher malesty the
emperor" is good French, (of course, we
mean merely TO say that the word "SG "
which preccdes "mdjeste" is fen1lnne) IN
English we disregard terminaional letters
altogether in asceltaning gender. This fea-
turc of English grammar has subjected that
science to no little uufriendly criticism. We
were, therefore. somewhat surprised and
gratiiied when we learned that HERBERT
SPENCER claims this feature as an advantage
which English grammar has over French.
In his philosophical phraseology. he says:
"No ono who considers language rs an in
s.rumcnt Of thought, wlicl is good in pro
portion as its special parts are definitely
adjusted to special functions, can doubt that
meaningless use Of sender' is defect. |!
Is undenilblc that to employ marks OF gen
der in ways always suggesting attributes That
are possessed, instead Of usually suggesting
attributes that are not possessed, Is IN inn

Co-operatiye Societies.

We have never had any hope that these
societies could accomplish much good for the
working classes, though there seem to have
been some successful ones in England and
elsewhere. In EDMOND ABoUT's work Oh
Social Economy he quotes from Monsieur
CnABAUp, president OF the working clas5 dele
gates ut the Universal Exhibition of 1862,
and founder Of several cooperative societies,
this remark .ln order that Il cooperative
society should succeed, ii must have at its
head Il man of superior intelligence, Of llr-
impeacbable honesty, and Of uncquallcd
Z" dbaegatton'-and then adds, significantly:
"All of that stamp who are met with ought
"to be taken from The workshops and made
81 into deputies, projects, senators, ampasSa-
"dors, and Minister'S When such men
shall continue TO be workmcn, oucr'ers VIII
have become accepted leaders In society
such men are usually Tot those who possess
unequalled abnegutiou." On the contrary,
they either find way or force it 10 preiermenl
in some walk of life. and leave their fellow
workmen just where they always were ano
always will be so long as egoisin rather taai
altrusm shall govern men. SHAKsrEARi
SAYS, elf two ride horse, one must ride
behind" We see no possibility of reversing
this rule in any society or political coumu
nifty. Cooperative societies aid all Other
means adopted to break its force must fail Il:
general thing, though there E,ay be eXcep
tional successful ones, The attention o
thousands of great ninds all over the civil
lied world is now directed to the subject OF
sociology or sociological laws. II they fail
to find a remedy for the evils under which
