The Priyation of Richmond

We say in all sincerity that the trouble OF
the inefficient express system upon the At
lantic, Mississippi and Ohio railroad is caus-
ing very great injury to this city. We 90
not accuse the president Of that road of any
intention to impair tue prosperity OF Rich
mo,d. So fsr from it we cannot question
his oft repeated and emphatic declarations Of
his desire to sec il thriving. We cannot,
then. see why lhe difficulties Of the express
system upon bis road should be continued.
We trust that he will not delay such changes
as are necessary to give the people Of Rich
mond full express facilities in their trade
with southwest Virginia, with which they
once had large aud prosperous business.
We are getting less and less familiar with
th,t part of the State, and our trade with it
is diminishing. We beg all the friends of
the Atlantic, Mississippi aud Ohio to do all
they can to secure to Richmond and to the
people on the line of the road the advantages
Of gu active and satisfactory express bust.
ness. Ali concerned will hail such system
with satisfaction, and the State will be
greatly benefited by it.

In his message vetoing the Suffolk bill
Governor kEsrER said:
"I,pon the well kaown rule ofconsleuc',oh

That il 10 say, the expression of one th'ne

Tho Constitution declares that the Governor
must be thirty years old, the expression Oh
";h,vty" excludes the idea that the Legisia'
tire could pass a law requiring him 70 pe
,hjrty-fiye, or forty, or any other greater age
Or when the Constitution cxcmpts "pro'
,crtv used exclusively for State, county
municipal, benevolent, charitable, educa'
,;onal. and religious purposes" the expires
sion Of these words excludes the loea tha'
anv other kind of property can be exempted
from taxation. WAY
Apply this familiar rule OF law TO the mer'
chants tax, remembering meanwh''e uia'
from 1869 till now it has been he!u tt'a' 'ne
Jori>laturc could not tax merchants licenses.
The Constitution says that
.The General Assembly may levy tax

rule Of all lawycrs-the "expression OF the
above occupations excludes the idea that
merchants can lie taxed upon their licenses.
Thty were clearly excluded when the words
"commissien merchants" were inserted ana
the word merchants omitted. Where

tence of tie same paragraph, proceeded 10
tell how merchants should 5c taxed, rs loi-
lows:

The Governor night just as well save the
Court Of Appeals the trouble Of upScttlng

value. 1t increases the tax upon OILY one
class. If next year the Legislature should
determine to pay tic interest upon the pub

would proceed to increase the present ruin
Gus tax upon merchants as ifno Increase had
been made this winter. There is no more
in petitioning The Executive to

scmb'y to pass one or defeat one. We would
fain hope that Governor kSMrER has veto
ready for this abomirable bill.

The Financial Question.

There has been talk. rs our readers have
been informed. OF new bill upon which
The majority OF Congress may be brought to
unite. But the kilograms yesterday dis
couraged tie hope Of any such union on the
plan described. It looked to the issuing Of
i per cent. national bond cXchangeabe at
par FOR greeabackS, which might be en-
ployed in the redemption Of $40 bonds.
Free banking vas to be Incorporated with
these provisions. The plan would probably
put srccnbacks on par with gold, and By
paying them cut in the redemption OF 5.20's
thc Supply Q: currency would be kept up.
Assisted by the free banks, NC suppose we
miuht we'll expect that there would be 10
curtalment of sufficient s,ringency 10 coca
sion oppression.
But we look for no liberal measure from
Congress. The Presidents veto ard the
inability OF the Libcrali.ts in Congress 10
muster 4 majority sufficiently strong to
override the veto settle the question in favor
Of the stock and gold gamblers Of the North.
General GRANT has broken his promise to
obey the will of the people, and adheres 10
the policy Swallowed forth by the "9rad-
griuds" and gamblers. He is moneycd
man, and knows how it is. He has had
amlrosal hours with the bankers. Poor
Henry" IClewsl whose failure grieyed the
President 50 much, has taught him some
cherished principles in finance.
So the bankers and money rings have the
field, and will never permit any liberal mea'
sure to pass Congress il they can help It.
Should one pas. however, it will be strans'eo
in the White House. Business had as wei!
go on, as the President says, without any
"great expectations" 1t Will, OF course y
on; but what money-corners in New 1or'
may again stop business, and how long DC
fore they do so, we shall see.

Major Thomas Rowland died in Baltimore
Yesterday. He was appointed to the United
States Military Academy from Virginia, his
native State, and such WAS bis natural aptl-
tude for his studies, and his assiduity, that
he arose to the head of his class. His edu-
cation was interrupted by the breaking out
of the late war, and his resignation and
espousal Of the cause of the South. He
served with distinction in the Confederate
army, attaining the rank Of major, and was
charged with the performance OF dithcult
and arduous duties on the stats OF Generals
L max and II. w. Ransom. When HOSTILE
es closed he matriculated at the University

preached an hour and twenty minutes in the

church there was scarcely standiDg-room, so
densely packed was the building. The aisles
were filled with chairs and benches, and this
fact prevented us from hearing much that
was said. He preached an hour and forty
minutes. These two sermons, taken to-
gether, embraced as much eloquence, logic,
and vivid imagery as any series OF sermons
or people have ever listened to- Courier.
