Answer to the Dispatchs Question.
IFrom the Petersburg News 25tb1

tfroh the petersburg News, 27th.
We will answer this question of our friend
with pleasure on his own figures. If" Jones y
can save $50 on his tax. bill By paying $50 in
money, and "Smith" can save $50 by nav.
ing $40 in coupons, then oil TAXPAYERS will
be considerably benefited by Fuikerson's
amendment" whether they pay In money
or coupons. The result would be that the
coupon.man would save $40 more than the
cash.man, and should therefore support the
amendment; and as a coupon is worth
specific value TO the State whether it sell
for $40 or 500, then if the State receives
more coupons this year than she did aast she
will have liquidated more Of her bonded in.
terest than she could otherwise have done,
and therefore she, too, should support the
amendment !"
But the revenue Is already too little to pay
the interest; and to "liquidate more y of the
debt with less money IL but little better thaa
stealing. The Ners weuld scorn TO act on
such principles in its private dealings.
Why repudlate 20 per cent. of the value
OF the couponsy Why not all? Is it more
dishonorabte to swinde q nan out of fifty
cents than out of tenf
The Neacs goes on to say:
"But let US address practical question
or two to our friend of the Dispatch. Why
should the bondholders be expected to dis.
pose Of their coupons at seventy cents in the
dollar! Would they not prefer going to
our Treasury and receiving four per cent, or
What interest We can pay, and certificate

into the Treasury, place them all on on
ao,,.l;tv, and leave the State untramme'ied
and free to pay all she can equally to all nef
creditors? We should think SO.
on il n|ain common sense that IL must pe
90 and ail the bluster Of the funders IS only
intended to Intimidate the representatlFes W
,ho rern,e, They are mistaken II they sup
nose that the few coupon'desiers ha'eu''ine
rights in this Commonwealth" ~,e $1,000
First. this is not question as to "cou'
non.dcs,ersn at all. II is aquestion OF honor
and honesty. If BEAST BUTLER heid tse eou'
pons the obligation Of the State to take them
fcr g all taxes, debts, and demands due the
sts,eo would be none the less for that
reason. e-.
Secondly, if the effect of the amendment
would be to render the coupons 80 nearly
worthless that nobody wouie sell them, or
could afford TO sell them, it's evident tnat
the amendment Is a measure OF repuaia'
tion-nothing more nor less. The State has
solennly coveEanled to take these coupons
at psr for taxes, Gtwould bea trick unworthy
of suy State to promise tstake coupons ioi
taxes and then say that It did not promise
to take them at par, and 20 gentleman In tnt
Legislature which passed the funding ac
meant that they were to be taken unoel
4 sar,) and her highest court has deodee
i the contract to be binding upon her; ane
/ therefore for the Stateto depreclate her OWL
] paper, as the Neus tells us Mr.. .FuLKExsoN''
amendment would depreciate it. would be al
an act of bad faith which we hope Virgins
never will be guilty of. We are surprised
to find the Ners even apologiziDg for such
measure. Whatever its advocates may pre-
tend to think, and however honestly tn
Neus may favor it, it is none the less an at
tempt to make the State of Virginia buy ii
for forty cents her own notes that she pro
missed to take for fifty. That such eonduc
would be dishonest in man, the Ne0s woui|
be quick to admit Why it is not dishones
in State which has four hundred million
of property wherewith to pay debt 0
thirty millions We cannot understand.
