was all that could be desired in the way
OF comfort and pleasure. The fresh aver
breeze came through our open st2te-
room doors and made it delightful The
almost universal caId-playing for amuse-
ment on board OF boats was not to be
seen on this, and the passengers assem-
bled together at night and listened with
the utmost attention to sermon. l
suppose that this line Of packets is one
OF the greatest, If not the greatest, Of
river packets in the world. Where will
you find a nation navigating such a
river as this with such boats as this?
And where will you find liBe Of pack
cts with more capital invested and a
greater number Of magnificent boats
than this? And all moving with the
utmost regularity, 30 that if you stop at
any town from st. Louis to Memphis,
they can tell you just when an Anchor
line boat will be along; and extending
down to Vicksburg. Captain nd. Storm,
the brusque and manly type Of the river
man, is well known at the elevator.
Captain John A. ScHdder, the president
at st. Louis, is quiet man, o! fair COM
plexi0n, fine features, and gray hair,
and / have never failed to find him at
his post OF business. PAUL BAGLEY.

There is no doubt class of people in Fir-
pinia. I hope not a large one, who find taxes
orieyous burden. They. are alluded TO
by Governor Kemper as the proprietors " OF
farms whose annual production falls short OF
the amo11nt of their annual taxes whose In
disnensable farm.animaIs and implements,
and lands also, are sold for taxes !; and all
through no want Of industry or economy on
the nart of the farmer." IF an industrious
and economical farmer owns farm on which
by q reasonable amount Of labor he cannot
raise enough to pay, the present taxes Levied
in Virginia It strikes me the Legislature
couldn't well do him greater favor than 70
compel him to sell out and betaket himself to
some more useful occupation. Imagine, II

The people of Virginia are slow to appre-
bend that our civilization has undergone
change wrought by the emancipation OF Inc
negroes and that our future work must. De
in those peaceful, industrial occupations
which in ages called heroic were tnouSnt
unworthy of noble souls. In the past, agrl-
culture was the dignifed occupation OF
wealthy shareholders, but it was the slaves
who titled the ground under the charge OF
the overseer, whilst the proprietor, exercl-
sing only q general superlntendence, 1ound
ample leisure and opportunity for the exer.
else of social amenities and the cultivation OIL
these chivaTric feelings which, in our estlma-
ton, marked the gentleman. Many or our
best people, reared under such auspices, mus
untitled to meet the ineXorable deman0s vi
the new civilization into which we are pass
ing, and too old to change, have sat down
with folded arms and sad hearts
to contemplate their untitled neids
rapidly coming under the dominion
of the sassafras and the broom-sedge because
their negro cabins are empty. To them the
tax gatherer is n terror. Humanity Dlds US
sympathze with them as the victims OF a
cruel misfortune; but we cannot shut our
ewes to the fact that they have become the
impedimenta in the march of progress. If
pe would move forward they must be left
behind. 1t is nothing new. The wheels of
human destiny ever move on, merc'essly
crushing those who stand in their path. We
cannot afford to accommodate taxation to
non.producing property-holders, nor can we
afford to sacrifice the prosperity of the Com
monwealth in a vain attempt to succor them.
" The greatest good to the greatest number"
is the primal law of republican government.

The Public Debt.

The legislators are feeling about the pub
lie debt "to get the hett of it," as people
aforetime were wont to say. 1t Is not handy
to get at, and cannot be lifted without a
strain "altogether." Caucuses and com.
mittees have been considering it, but thus
far find great deal OF trouble in reaching
any conclusion that appears to meet with
more than partial favor. The funding act
stares always in front, aud how to
turn it is the question that Is always
uppermost. 1t is manifest that as long
as that is looked upon as the great OBJ.
stacle there can hardly be any united and
practical measure for paying the public OBJ
legations.
While referring TO the subject we invite
attention to several communications which
have appeared in the Dispatch, signed q B.

be serviceable at this time of decidedly too
much dependency. Wepublish this morn

A Fair RepOrt-At Last.

We have the truth at last from the sub
committee on Louisiana affairs, composed o.
Messrs. CHARLES FOSTER, Of Ohio, one OF the
most liberal and most consistent Republican:
in the House, who was rejected in October
last by small majority because of the high
reputation he had established, though in The
Safe generally the Republicans lost heavily
WILLIAM WALTER PHELPS, OF New Jersey!
Republican; and GARRISON n. POTTER, o.
New York, son Of Bishop POTTER, of Penn
syvinia, and one Of the abest Democrats il
public life, who declined to be q candidate fol
rejection in the last campaign-tWo men,
bcrs Of the dominant party and one Demo
crat. Their report published in the Dispatch
Of yesterday has been like Drummond
light suddenly thrown upon community oil
robbers and outlaws with all the implements
Of their art, all their plots and schemes
OF diabolism. The whole world looks upon
them, as it were, in the broad light of day
and tue "whole committee" with.Mr. g. F
HOAX (not the better man E. r. HoAR) at
their head, cannot make these desperate men
appear in more favorable light.
The report Of the sub. committee is com.
plcte yindication Of the white people OF
Louisiana from Radical aspersions. There
is no direct censure Of those outraged peo-
pie, and only one case Of implied censure-
that Of the conduct OF Mr.. WILTz and that
was case with which the Federal Govern.
mcnt had no more right to interfere than
the caitiff KELLOGG, and he no more than the
Kahn Of Tartary.
This great document must exert power
full influence over the whole country. If we
did not believe this we should think the
American people themselves no longer fit fol
selfgovernment, and ready for the yoke of
vulgar despotisnl, whose power would be
ruthless and too great to need the support
of the SANDERS of whole communities by
corrupt partisaps aud paid iniormers.
