no, SOMETHIMG GEN NCLEMEN.

A month has come and gone, and the
Legislature has not thus far earned its salt.
Hawk and Owl scalps, and Dog laws, and
such like measures have occupied the at
tention of the grave and reverend Senate,
and the popular House. The city Of Viii.
mington pays very large part Of the
taxes of the States, contains more than one
fourth ofthe population, and now pants sund@
special grievances, and not thought be-
slowed upon her. A system Of assessment
exists in this city, admitted to be wrong, it
makes committee of Council the Court Of
Appeal in the matter Of assessments, func-
ton no law maker with an ounce Of
knowledge about municipalities or taxation
would have lodged with such body. A
board of intelligent and impartial men
who were totally removed from tho bias
which always attaches to a partizan politi'
clan, qualified by experience to graduate
taxation by the shrinkage, or growth Of the
values of real estate, would give general
satisfaction; but the present farcial manner,
of determining how much citizen il to
contribute to the municipal exchequer-
ought to be abolished.
The Morning herald., 1877-02-05
THE TAX ON MANUFACTUAE10.

1t is hardly possible to conceive a more
shorted sighted policy, than that which
taxes the manufacturing industry Of our
State. Quite apart from its being now un-
necessary, it is impolitic apd vicious in its
character. The income tax was specially
obnoxious, because of its inquisitorial char
acter, the State tax upon manufactures is
equally so,-as returns must be made OF
the amount of business one does, as the
basis of his taxable return, this exposes the
privacy of manufacturers affairs, which
of all things, he most religiously tries to
guard from the prying intrusion Of the
public. There is no State in the Union,
where industry is still fettered by the tax
alton, but in Delaware Ought not the
Legislature now in session repeal the tax on
manufactures, and by so doing tighten the
burdens, resting on the industry Of our own
workers, and invite others from abroad to
settle in our midst. We know Of one in
stance of a negociatian for the site o.
large factory being broken short. when the
parties heard, of the existence Of the tax il
question.
We all desire the introduction o
foreign capital to enlarge our manufactur
ing industry, now can we reasonably e1
pect its incoming when our Legislators
are either so ignorant Of the needs OF in
dustry, or so welded to Bourbonism as t.
fear change.

THE FOUNTAIN SOCIETY.

Although now in Winter season, when
water is abundant, if not CONCEALED by frost,
we are likely to forget the great need OF II
in the thirsty, and baking days Of Summer
One of the presentations Of tippling, is the
ready supply Of mountaineering liquors,
to the thirsty or weary. Itmust have csme
within the experience Of almost every one
of our readers, that more than once it hap
pened-that they yearned for a drink Of
water-aud unless in tavern or some
public saloon it could not be had; shrink"
ing and sensitive person would bear the
pangs of thirst rather than have their sensi-
bilitiss pricked by entering such places
even for drink of water. To this class
the fountain gives relief. In another as
pect, the Fountain Society is worthy Of all
praise. The poor dumb animals-horses
and dogs, which heretofore painted and
thirsted for drink Of water, can now drink
freely, these unknown agonies are relicv-
Cd and comfort given to Gods creatures by
the Fountain Society.
To thehumane and kindly disposed people
| of our State, we ask assistance, countenance
and support, to Society-which fills the
measure of our humanity. Before thu
summer commences send in your help te
the Fountain Society, and aid in giving
comfort to Gods creatures.

AS MAY be noticed we have made a
slight diminution in the size Of The
HERALD but our economy Of space ena-
bles us to give as much reading matter as
heretofore, and the improved quality Of
the paper more than compensates TOR Its
shrinkage. To give chance to boys de-
sirous ofearning few dollars week these
hard times, we will sell them the HERALD
at the rate of fifty cents per hundred. Any
Industrious lad may easily earn three dol
lars per week by selling HERA1Ds when
purchased at that rate.

rCoxoux..wHo ARE TAX PAYERs

ECONOMY-.WAO ARE TAX PAY1BS
Certain schools in Wilmington, the
the classics are taught to rich mems child
rem. This is wrong, such people if they
want advanced education, ought to pay for
it: We reitsrate that the cost Of education
comes from the pockets Of renters, a. we'll
as owners Of houses. The five or more
thousand poor men, who pay rent, from
$12 to $25 per month, each and every one
are charged in the rent with the taxes,
which their landlord hand oyer to the
city or State; it is the tenant not
the landlord who pays the school or
other tax. Is it fair or honest
to tax the humble poor. for the education
of :.well-to.do mans child,in branches o.
study, not within the iutendment Of the
common schools but property taught IN
our Academies.
The Rugby will take charge Of the class
ical education Of our young folk. The cost
of every thing has! fallen, the scheol board
alone, is oblivious Of the fact that gold mas
fallen from 205 to 105, and that war prices
are no longer obtained by the laborer' nor
paid by the employer.
If John Jones' wages had been cut down
in one of our factories, from $l5 per week
to $40, is there any good reason why sallle
Jones, the school teacher, should not sub
nit to like curtailment, as one OF the con-
sequences Of the enforced enconomy OF the
day. Good schools are necessity; educa-
ton is factor in civilization, which can
not be omitted, but there is no reason why
| it should not be obtained, at the same re-
duced price, as any other idispensable
element of life.

to say it closed crowned with sue
cess. There were several accessions
to the church and warming up of
the members generally.
We are sorry to say, some thought

School House in the way Of tearing
it down, but the old house would
not yield to the power applied, and
it still stands, though in a dilapida-
ted condition, forcing the Directors
to rent another room for school pur-
poses.

Col. A. 4. Brown

The Ross County Register pays
the following merited compliment to
Col Brown, the Republican candi-
date for Senator from this district,
every word Of which viii be heartily
endorsed by the Republicans Of
Highland, and we Will Just add that
they intend to do their full share IN
re-electing him to the position be has
filed so creditably to himself and
the district. The Register says
Col. Brown is well entitled to ez-
perience a swelling at the heart over
the high compliment paid him by
the Republicans of this District
not merely that they nominated him,
but the manner Of doing 1t, From
neither county came a single object
ion. Called upon as the Colonel was
during his recent term tosvOte upon
questions Of all kinds, local as well
as State, affecting the interest favor
ably or adversely Ofmany of his con
stituents, the confidence felt in his
rectitude of purpose, and the uni
versal belief that he voted upon
every question honestly and cOnsci-
entiously, is weI-evidenced by the
fact that not a voice was heard In
the entire district against his nom
nation. Democrats as well as Re
publicans unite in testifying to his
honorable and useful career as Sena-
tor. He was steadily at his post /;
gave every question upon which be
voted careful and intelligent con-
sideration was always prompt In
attending to the subjects brought
before him by his constituents, and
in every way acquitted himself with
credit. His record recommends him
in the highest degree to the voters
of this district for reelection, and
we are confidently of the opinion
that they Will express their satisfac-
ton with Col. Brown by giving him
an Endorsement backed by a hand
some majority.

Mr.. Dumenil is a gentleman, for
whom we have a high personal re-
gard, but his best friends must ad-
NIT his incompetency for the Office
of Prosecuting Attorney. The coun-
ty ought to have a prosecutor who
is at least capable of drawing up an
Indictment in proper form. Mr..
Dumenirs blundering in the indict
ment of Nancy Henness, in the in
fanticide case at the last February
term of Court, is believed to have
prevented the defendants conviction
of the crime of murder. There was
probably not one of the jury who
did not believe her guilty Of causing
the death other child by some means;
but as the indictment contained only
one count, viz: charging that the
the death of the child was produced
by dro,0njng, the jury we're necessa-
rily confined to that count alone
Had the indictment contained anoth.

is good reason to believe that the cru
el and unnatural mother would have
been convicted.

Politically, we are very quiet in
Penn, too quiet, I fear. True, we
have a Republican President, but,
my friends, do not forget that the
action of the Ohio Legislature this

and both Houses of Congress against
the Executive will be a new expert
ence to Republicans, and one which
I, for one, have no desire to see.

Newell" 1t has come out since
that he had been guilty of other lit
tie pilferings, characterized by a
boIdness which gave bad promise for
reformation, though in some cases I
think he might have used the horse
thiefs language:
'aThough for me one thing might be said
That I, as well as the horse was led;
And the worst Of whisky spurred me on,
Or else the deed would have never been done"
Our winter schools have not all
