Ex-senator Brownlow does not ALWAYS
give sood advice. either to white or CO.
iored men. He too frequently substi-
tutes passion and prejudice for reflection
and calm Judgment. But on n recent
occasion, since the passage of the Civil
Rights Bill. he presented to tho colored
people Of his own anil other sections
Of the country some excellent ad
vice in relation to their behavior under
the new state of affairs. He says ..the
best thing the colored population can do
is to accept the situation in which these
laws place them, and to reverence and
obey all the laws of the land. carefully
avoiding everything calculated to array
the prejudices of the whites against
them, OF to bring about unpleasant rela-
tions between the rnces." II the cx-Se
nator will now rap sharply over the
knuckles that class of politicians who in
flame the passions and prcjudices of
colorcd men for their own selfish pur-
poses, he will add to the strength of his
position in the estimation of good men
OF all parties.-PAuodelphia Times.

The Merchants LiceMse-Tax.

The following is summary OF the opln!on
of the Court of Appeals OF Virginia, declaring
the merchants tax law constitutional. The
several propositions are argued at length by
Judge Christian, who rendered the decision:
Commonwealth VS.. Moore & Goodsons
|. The lO4th section OF chapter 21O OF the
acts Of 1874. imposing license tax 90 the gen
eral merchant is not in conh ct with the CoDstl
tuition of the State or of the United States, aud
il therefore valid.
II. The courts cannot declare q law uncon-
stitutioual unless 1t Is expressly or by clear
implication 10 conflict with the Constitution OF
the State or OF the Uuited States.
Ill. Taxation is legislative power inherent
in every sovereignty, aud can be exercised by
the Legislature, whether particularly speched
in the Constitution among the powers 10 be
exercised by it or not; its powers over 1t are
supreme, Icept when restricted by the or
gauic law.
w. The act in question is clearly within the
grapt of legislative power
V. What busin Gao or cannot be reached
by the "ad valorem system" must be deter
mined ONLY by the L legislature.
VI TIE courts have nothing to do with
matters of legislative policy; they cannot de-
clare au act Of the Legislature void because it
may coualct with their opinions of policy, ex-
pediency of justice the wisdom and justice of
the legislative body, and its relations with its
constituents. form the only security, where
there is no express Limitation, against exces
siye taxation and unwise Legislation gener

VII. No opinion expressed BY the court as
to whether the act complained of is unjust, un-
equal unwise, or oppressive to any class.

ferent doors trying to secure at least nearing
room.
The Diplomatic gallery was crowd ed to reple-
ton With the representatives OF foreign POWERS,
who paid the strictest attention to Mr. Scbuz.
The elegance and beauty Of the dresses OF the
ladies OF the diplomatic corps was especially
noticeable.
The foor was occupied By a large number of
privileged persons, Including about hundred
members of tine House Of Representatives, al
most the entire Cabinet, and many distinguish

of the Senator'S speech it is conceded on
all a;des that il was statesmanlike effort, and
worthy of the reputation he has achieved Of
being one of the abIest men 10 the country. 1t
was lofty in its tone and free trom all that

He seemed to appreciate the importance OF
the situation, and to desire solution OF the
