THE TAX BILL.

The new tax bill now before the
Legislature is intended to draw
more blood, without cutting deeper
than hereto4crc.
It's many blades are 20 ent into
those tender portions OF the body
which Virginia has heretofore en-
deavored to foster and protect, be
cause their Developments have been
regarded as the conditions and pre-"
requisites of our prosperity and
fame.
1t taxes marriage licences, Minis
tcrs salaries and Church property.
Marriage is pronounced by it TO bc
a luxury which must he laid for,
while the old rakcs and dead beats
and bachelors are TO 90 scott free
OF course it is a delve at the few
privileges of the poor, and tends to
the fostering and propagation OF
lewdness. 1t offers a premium
upon illegitimacy by indirectly re
warding those who support houses
If ill>fame and who arc invited tO
people the Commonwealth with
Lastards.

it is against the people of Kansas
that the sensibilities of the Senator
are particularly aroused. Coming /,

will not recOnized en- as "a body

ne indulge in TINS egotism? Has he
read the history OF "the State" whic'!
he represents? he cannot surely have
forgotten its shameful imbecilIty
from slavery. confessed throughout
the Revolution, followed by its more
shameful assumptions for slavery
since. He cannot have forgotten its
wretched persistence in the slave
trade as the very apple of its eye +,
and the condition of its participation
in the Union. He cannot have for
gotten its constitution, which is re-
publican only i'll name, confirming
power in the hands of the few, and
founding the qualifications of its leg
islatOrs on settled freehold estate
and ten negroes " And yet the Sena-
tor. to whom that State has in part
committed the guardianship of its
goodname, instead of moving with
backward treading steps to cover its
nakedness, rushes forward, in the
very ecstasy Of madness, to expose it
by provoking comparison with Kan

And we kmowed each other so well, Squire,
You may take my scalp for fool
IF every man when he signed his nance
Didn't feel dead sure Of the pool.
Fur awhile it all went lovely;

Fur to make JOY bile his wife was dead,
And he went home middlin' gay.

SOUTHERN HISTORY.
Ben Hills Speech Before the Southern
Historical Society at Atlanta.
why the Confederate Armies
Din Not Win
DAVIS, LEE, AND JOHNSTON.

At meeting in Atlanta. Georgia,
for the formation of an auxiliary
branch of the Southern Historical So
ciety, Hon. Ben Hill made long and
interesting spe ech, in which he brought
to light many hidden facts, and cor
rected many erroneous impressions IN
regard to the history of the struggle on
the Confederate side. He clears Mr.
Davis from many charges brought
against him during and since tie war,
for which he received terrible abuse;
among them, the removal of Cen
eral Johnston from command in Geor-
gia. We give long extract from the
speech below:
GENERAL r. T. LEE.
No people, ancient or modern, can
look With more pride to the verdict
which history will be compelled to
render upon the merits and characters
of our two chief leaders-the one i'll the
military and the other in the civil ser
vice. Most other leaders are great be-
cause of fortunate results, and heroes
because of success. Davis and Lee, be-
caCse of qualities in themselves, are
yr.,at in the face of misfortune and he
roes in 1pite of defeat.
When tile future historian comes 10
survey the character of Lee, he VIII
find it rising like a huge mountain
above the unduIs: ting plain of human
itv. and he will have to lift his eyes
high towards heaven ~ catch It's sum
nit. He possessed eveg.v virtue OF
the other great commanders without
their vices. He was foe without
hate. a friend without treachery
soldier without cruelty. end vict'H
without murmuring. He was pub
lie officer without vices; private citi-
zen without wrong; neighbor with
out reproach; q Christian without
hypocracy. and a man without guilt
He was Cesar without his ambition,
Frederick, without his tyranny, Ma
poIeon, without his selfishness, and
Washington, without bis reward. He
was obedient to authority as servant,
and royal in authority as true King.
He was gentle as woman IN lie;
modest and pure as virgin in Thought,
watchful as Roman yestaa al duty:
submissive to law and Socrates, and
grand in battle as Aehhlesi
