Am III-Judged Scheme.

We see that Mr.. Wiley Wells (Repub-
lican) has introduced bill to refund the
cotton tax in the interest of common
schools. 1t is simply intended for the
county of Buncombe, and will be treat
ed accordingly.
We regret to note that Mr.. Cook
Democrat), of Georgia, has also intro
duced a refunding bill. He has better
prospect of riding to the moon in bal
loon than to carry his bill through Con
gress, but, while he cannot succeed in
securing its passage, he can very mate
rally injure the prospects of his
own down-trodden section in the
Presidential election. Even if he
could pass his bill with six times
sixty millions of Z. S. bonds paya-
BILE to the Southern States as in
demnity for the tax, he would
not compensate them for the damage
they would sustain in the capital ii
would furnish to the Radical party in the
pending election. The organs and
demagogues of that party have al
ready raised howl, and are fright,
ening the nation by the clamor thai
Democratic victory will saddle the
Government with innumerable claim:
for damages from the South, such as the
recognition of the Confederate war debt

They have turned their backs upon thu
past, and are seeking to repair its disas
tiers not by special legislation for the ben
eft of any class, but by restoring t
power party which will concede to eacl
State alike the enjoyment of all the i'm
munities and principles which the con
stitution was designed to secure.
In reference to this refunding job,
Washington correspondent of the NeN
York Tribune says:
A year ago strong lobby was organize
for the purpose of securing refund OF thi
tax The certificates showing its paymen
have been bought up in the South at nomi
nal rates, and were said to have been hel
by few spectators, and had they succeed
ed, those interested would have made
clear profit of from $30000,000 to $4,000,
: 900.
, This year several new plans have bee
proposed. One is that the tax shall b
refunded to those who actually paid it, with
out regard to present ownership of the Gel
tificates showing such payment. AnOthe
proposes to issue United States BONDS, equf
in amount to the tax paid by the citizens
each State, and to make those bonds pei
petual free school fund. the interest TO b

member from Alabama, distressed them
by saying that the colored people had be-

the rotten governments of the carpet
