The Railcoad Tax.

The Bank Of Commerce and the Richm ond
and Danville Railroad Company have obtained
judgment against the securities of this
County on the supercedias bonds. We are
informed that the executions hsve been issued
and placed in the hands of L. II Barton for COL
lection. The judgments and costs will amount,
probably, to eight or ten thousand dollars.
The County Commissioners have already
levied an eight mills tax, TO meet this judg-
Enept, but owing TO the complications in State
matters the tax has not been collected.
The Commissioners, at our mass meeting at
this place last year, were requested, aud di
rected 10 save the securities harmless, and for
that purpose made the mills levy, above re-
ferred to. 1t seems evident now that this
judgment will have to be paid, and rs tho
County is responsible. every taxpayer is in
terested. If the securities pay it now, the
County will be compelled to refund it to them
and as every turn in the courts adds more
cost, we think 1t better for the County to take
the bull by the horns and make provisions for
meeting the question at once. If The Sc
curiies are forced 10 pay, it will only increase
the amount, which the County will eventually
have 10 meet. and, as oil the taxpayers Of The
County, as well as the individual securities,
are interested in this matter. we respectfully
suggest meeting at this place on Saturday.

question into consideration. Let US have n

The Presidential Question.

The prospects Of Mr. Tildcn, as tho
next President ot tho United States
are Frightening every day. The ace
tion Of the Supreme Court of Florida,
ordering the State Board of Canvass
crs to make o recount, will either give
the State TO Tildcn or cause the vote
to be thrown out, which, in either
event will elect Mr.. Tilden. The

ing evidence, disproved every chn' 60

mitted by the Republicans Thc
State will either be given TO TiIden on
thrown out, that is, il there is any
regard for justice or constitutional
law left in the minds Of tho Senators
OF the United States Congress. The
people OF Indiana. Ohio, Illinois, Penn,
sylvania, and other Northern aud
Western States are rising up in their
might, and will hold meetings in each
county of the States on the 9Th inst,
wh' they will speak in no uncertain
tones TO the Senate, demanding that
the will of the people as expressed on
the 7th day OF Novcnhe, last, be re-
garded, and tImt Samuel J FriIdep and
Thomas "A. Hendricks be declared thc
President, and Vice-PreSidcnt of the

II is announced already that Sens
ators ConkIing and J. G.. Blaine will
tako issue with tho Radical conspira-

it is now asserted that that number
