The Tobacco Tax.

Senator WTTHERs very justly objected to
the anticipation by the Senate Of the action
oil the House OF Representatives on the to-
bacco tax. But We trust that Senator Nc
PHERsoN's movement, spurred by the Lo-
RILLARD monopolists, may hurry up action
in the House. There is no. good reason
why that body should be delaying its
action on this tobacco-tax bill. 70 IS q
shame and an outrage upon the natlon-
upon commerce and industry an
important subject like this shoutd be
detained 50 long while time is wasted upon
matters that are OF no earthly moment to
the people. 1t ii not surprising that people
should satirize the great national Congress
for Its wtndsness and iaWbo6e power. One
wit says it Is discounted by Holland, which
mas ten thousand Wind-mills; another says
that 1t should be named after the locality
whore sAasoN won his great victory, which
being interpreted is the place where was
lifted up the sawbone. s..SS3

House does not dispose of she tobacco bill.
3 We shall be delighted Il the LoRrLlARD,s
are beaten as they should be. All monopo-
lists are enemies OF mank kind, and merit the
public aversior. These men now stand
forth as the body and power OF the enemies
.of the tobacco tax, as they are OF the vast
body OF people who cultivate and Zeal
In tobacco. They ought to be beaten
Tor che sake OF humanity, since they seek to
repci honest enterprise and cripple the en-
ergies Of youthful and unWealtby ambition.
But whether they are to be beaten or not
let the trade and the people know it. This
is the great point. Let all know il, and lei
those who are now detained in idleness,
with daily losses, go to work. If the State State
favors the LoRILLARDs let it. AT all events
let the question be settled, and let manu-
featuring industry and the tobacco trade go
ahead as well as they can.

Repeal of the Bankrupt"

1t is gratifying that the bill repeating the
bankrupt law is about to become law. 1t
takes effect on the first Of September next,
the Senate having backed out under the spur
of Fictitious excitement gotten up to
scare them, and amended. the House bill
which provided for the immediate repeal Of
the law.
The bankrupt law never ought to have
passed. 1t has been the cause Of a vast
amount OF rascality, and has greatly cor
rupted the people OF the nation. But let
us make the best OF it: The merchants
will have to keepup their vigilance to avoid
a species Of swindlirg almost new III the
land that has been generated by this vicious
bankrupt act. The 1st OF September Will
come in time, and will end law the like OF
which, we trust, will never again disgrace
the statute-book.
A wise and properly-guarded bankrupt
lava law OF involuntary bankruptcy
would be OF commercial value. but such a
law as that we now have is the worst OF
things for commerce and for public honesty
and social virtue.

Two premiums are offered for the best
production on wheat. & On page 15 OF cata-
iogue Ia the following: For the best acre
OF wheat, not less thnn forty bushels, $50
md ON page IS, 9. To the young white man,
between the age OF eighteen and twenty
i've. who, By bis unaided labors. shall raise
from i've acres of land the largest and best
cropof wheat, $40"
The distinction between the two Is mani
fest. In the first, any farmer may select
from his crop, without regard to surface
sown, his best acre, ndifit exceeds in yield
forty bushels he may compete for the pre-
MUM. The second is designed for the en-
couragement OF young farmers OF limited
means, and the Yield not being specified, ne
who shows the largest will be entitled TO the
premium. The conditions are the same III
both cases, and will be seen by Ruli 90,
as follows:
T /" Applicants for premiums on farm crops
will remember that the land on which the
crop is grown must be in one piece, ana
measured by competent surveyor, whose
aIUuuflL luuSb accompany ehS oNseS.A1SAAo3
the location, kind, condition, and prepare
ton OF the soil; the previous crop, and bow
MANFRED; the quality, quantity, and kind
OF manure used; the time, expense, and
manner Of sowing; the cultivation and har-
yesting OF the crop, and preparing IT for
market; and the actual yield must be stated
in writing, and sample OF the. product ex-
hibited at the Fair.
These conditions may appear to some to
be too minute and rigid, but it is the object
OF the Society, whilst it confers it premiums
on successful exhibitors, to gather at the
same time information which can be i'm
parted to others, and thus encourage in
creased production under improved modes
Of culture.
The offerings OF the Society for all kinds
OF farm and garden crops are liberal, and
designed to invite the largest display and
most active competition.

Note.-Tbe sample Of wheat required
above need not be a bushel, but simply suf-
ficlent to show its quality. There are also

SOUTH Boston, May q, 1873.
Editors Dispatch: The long season in
May seems to be over. The farmers cannot
complain OF "dry seasons" and "no
plants" for there never were better seasons
nor plants more plentiful. The quantity OF
tobacco planted is not so large as usual, but
special effort will be made to improve the
quality in this section.
The breaks at the several warehouses IN
this place for the last month or two have
been very large, and for fine grades the
prices have been reasonable.
I ascertain, through Mr.. W. T. Carter,
the accommo dating agent at the South Bos-
ton depot, that 2,49S packages OF loose to-
bacco, weighing 2,7S5,004 pounds, were
shipped from this place during the past
year, ending on the 21st instant. A very
large majority was consigned to Richmond.
The rest found sale In Danville, Petersburg,
and Durham, n. G..
During the past week our county has
been visited by no less than three hail
storms. On Tuesday last severe storm
passed over this place, and again on Friday.
The early vegetables were in many places
totally destroyed. On Saturday storm
passed over the southern portion OF the
county, which was very destructive indeed.
Hail fell in great quantities in the neighbor-
hood OF Hyco and Blue Wing-sweeping
everything before it, The stones were
larger than mans fist, and in almost every
conceivable shape. We hear Of no loss Of
life, but the destruction to the crops and
gardens has been very great. Major Is. l..
Ragland, who seeded one hundred and sixty
bushels of wheat, thinks he will save but
little more than seed. During the storm
lightning struck near the residence OF Mr.
B. W. Terry, near Black Walnut, killing
fine colt. The oldest citizens declare they
never saw such hail and such destruction.
At Rocksboro', y. g., the hail, learn, was
larger than at Hyco.
Rev. John B. Turpin, Of Black Walnut,
has been granted leave OF absence from his
churches for three months. He leaves about
the 10th OF June on visit to Europe, and
will proceed as far as Rome, where he will
spend some weeks with his old friend, Rev.
George B. Taylor, D. D. Rev. Dir. Holmes,
OF Danville, is expected to accompany blr.
Turpin in his journey.
Monday was our court-day, but no busl-
ness of general importance was transacted.
Politics at times ran high, but as the wea.
Their was cool, the crowd not very large,
and the bell-punch" not very active,
everything passed off quietly. Candidates
were plentiful, and looked happy. The
tempting offices of County and Circuit
Court clerkships have made nearly score
OF very good fellows as polite us IS French
dancing-masters."

A Remarkable Murder, and COnvfc-
ton by Strange Circu mstantial Evil
dGnce.

dence.
Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.l
EsTILLvILLE, SCOTT COUNTY, VA.,
May 90, 1878.
There was concluded to-day one OF the
most remarkable trials for murder that ever
occurred in this State-the case OF the
Commonwealth as. Daniel Dean, for killing
Henry Fugate June %, 1877. The case was
made out wholly by circumstantial evil
dence, and there have been over seventy
five witnesses examined, and the cost OF
the trial will amount to near 81 1000. The
trial lasted fourteen days before the jury
found verdict, and the court Is still en-
gagged in taking down the testimony prepa-
ratory to certifying bill Of exceptions.
Dean was convicted OF murder In the tlrst
degree within one honr from the retirement
of the Jury. There have been two trials OF
the case before-one in July and one in Sep
TENDER, 1S77-in which the iuries failed to
agree: and the other result was such feel
ing as to REQUIRE the venue to be changed
and Jury to be summoned from Washing
ton county.
Fueate was shot whilst plowins corn in
his fields by Dean, who was concealed in
the woods close by. Dean soon made his
way home, and was to all appearances in
dustrlousy engaged in blowing in his own
fields, half-mile Oft, when the alarm OF
Fugate's shooting was circulated.
Dean nut up strong alibi defence; but it
was made out by members OF his family
only. A strong motive was shown, which,
with threats and peculiar gun which he
used that left mark upon the rail from
which he shot, with the fact that LETT
banded man must have done the deed, and
that he shot left-handed, and some tracks
which were proved to correspond with
his-al these, together with the sagacity Of
a dog belonging to Fugate that trailed Dean
some distance, and some other facts, con-
WINGED the Jury Of his guilt.
The dIi6twas not set up unit! after the
examination before the justice.
There was another powerful circumstance
in connection with the case that had great
weight. The prisoner introduced wit
ness by the name Of Harris, who proved
facts which, il true, clearly showed him in
nocent and established his Glibi. But the
Commonwealth commenced to contradict
this witness. Becoming scared, he sent for
the attorney for the Commonwealth and
asked permission to come into court and
confess to the jury that his evidence was
false. 1t was granted, when the witness
disclosed that hehad been suborned by one
OF Deans lawyers, named Alfred Harris,
who had agreed to give him S75 toswear
what he did.
Immediately on this denouement the law
yer {{Harfis) took to the woods, and the She
riff has not been able to apprehend him, al
though the Judge trying the cause promptly
issued q warrant for his arrest. sss
This case will don btless be carried to the
Court OF Appeals, and VIII settle many new
Eand difficult points OF law. y -
The trial took place In the County Court
