THE CINCINNATI ROAD.
TsfE aovERNouls VETO.

Gov. leslie Transmitted 10 the House
Of Representatives, . sho( time since,
his veto Of the bill entitlc( "An act au.
thorizing certain counties in thi. Com.
mcnwealth to purchase laSd for right
Of way and depot grounds. and lease the
same 10 the trustees Of TIE Cincinnati
Southern railway" The chief ground
Of the objection entertained BY the Gov.
ssncr Is founded upon . supposition,
which he maintains with great force and
vigor. that such Legislation would be
based upon the presumption OF an un-
constitutional power Of taxation. The
power Of the Legislature In the matter
Of levying and collecting taxes, he con.
cedes TO be unrestricted. 50 far as the
rate Of taxation Il concerned; but strong.
ly asssrts IL constitutional restriction in
the object for which it is exercised. Tax
q are defined to be charges or contribu-
tons imposed BY the Legislature upon
persons or property TO mise money for
public purposes or 70 accomplish the
ends Of the Government 1t, therefore,
fbIlows that any tax Of contribution lev.
led for the purpose Of promoting or Is.
sissing or building ups private enter
priseis wholly unauthorized by any consti.
tutional sanction. The Cincinnati
Southern railway. how much soever i,
may incidentally benefit the public, is
nevertheless . privais corporation, or.
ganized for pecuniary profit alone; and
such being the case Y Legislature can
not confer upon . ms3rity of the voters
in any Of the countisj named in the bill
the power to tax 4 property of the
minority in order to Use . fund to pur-
chase the right Of NJ for the road or
The ground for the pots.
The Governor ufthis veto message
has gone little fus1her than the Court
Of Appeals in its post recent decision Of
questions Of this kture. The last cases
before the courl involving this point,
were those Of III Mercer and Garrard
county courts VI Kentucky River Navi-
cation Compan} The majority of the
court evaded a5opinion as to the con-
stitutionality Of the tax authorized to be
Jy1iie act incorporating the
Navigation Company, and decided the
case upon other grounds.
Judge Hardin, however, delivered
dissenting opinion, concurring with the
majority in the reversal ofthe Judgment,
but dissenting from the reason assigned.
In that opinion he takes substantially
the same view entertained by the Gov
ernor upon the question OF the constitu-
tional authority to impose tax upon
municipal subdivision of the State for
the purpose of aiding private enter
prise, but held that, in conformity to the
opinions of the court in the case Of Slack
va. Maysville and Lexington Railroad
Company, railroads are proper objects
"a local taxation, inasmuch as they par
(e of the nature of public highways,
,serving the purpose of road for ac-
=, travel and transportation, and not
.hy conduce to the prosperity of local
immunity, but are regarded as peculiar
6jects of public interest.
The views set forth by the Governor
are sminently conservative, and if sus-
tanned by the pro per judicial authority,
would relieve the citizen Of a great
amount of spoliation attempted under
the guise of taxation.

ALEXANDER AND PULASKI.

"Tbcro i. II growing feeling in favor Of
tic consolidation Of Alexander and Pal
aski counties, says the Cairo Gszot,e.
We have had this subject under con5d-
Grafton for some time, and have come 10
the conclusion that the two counties
named ought 20 be united and made one
colnty. Tho best interests Of the people 81
both the counties demand this. Indeed,
in no other way can Alexander and Pul-
sski counties be rescued from impending
bankruptcy.
The county politicians and many other
citizens will no doubt vehemently dom
ounce this suggestion politicians be-
cause the consolidation may take from
their mouths the teat of public patronage,
the ciiizans because they have county
pride they cannot explain and the exist
cnce Of which no sensible person can COM
prchonl but all Thoughtful citizens Of both
the counties cannot escape tho conclus ion
that consolidation would be blessing,
We do not propose to entor upon dis
cussioE Of the question Of consolidation Mt
this time and will only mention in a gon-
eral way some Of tho most salient consid-
erGtions tina. havo induced ul 20 dosiro
that Alexander and Pulaski should
ming'o into one.
!, We lay this down es an ipcoulro-
ver.ible proposition: Tho limit Of taxation
upon the assessed value Of property in
Alexander and Pulaski win no. rclurn
sufficient money to tho treasury Of either
county to pay the absolutely necessary cx-
pensgs Of tho county. The limit is we DO.
love 70 cents on the 800, making sl.5O
in both counties,
2. If the counties were united, 20
cents taxation on the 500 valuation
would return othe treasury moro than
efficient TO pay all running expenses Of
tho united counties, and thus cave 70 ii q
taxpayers hlargo amount Of money md
Away. keep tho orders upon tho treasury
at par.
.. There Is no necessity for two coun.
ties within tho territory OF Alexander
and Pulaski. On the contrary, tho sparse
population Of the countics, tho absence O,
wealth from their borders and their ,len,
, tlty Of interests require tha. thoy should
. be united under one government.
a. Separated, both will he for years tc
come Stunning In debt :" both will hay,

United, taxation half ms heavy es is now

The shirts worn by Richardson's hoy were

sponded with the dress worn by
Mrs. Richardson when her body was
inferred. This WAS ascertaincd by digging
up the body. Nearly all of Richardson's
goods were found, and the boxes contain
log them, with blood-marks on their
covers, were also found. Aeddlock muir.
dsred the throo while they were asleep,
