shipped by those eight men alone, and
of that amount they state that 10000
pounds was from Buncombe, balance

THE TALLEST.-Prof. W. &. Sim
mons writing to the Recorder from
White Mountain House, y. II. says:
The rough stone-heap constituting
the summit of Mt. Washington is the
crown Of New England and was for
a long time thought to be the highest
point of land in North America. east
of the Rocky Mountains. The New
Englander was reluctant to concede
his error Oh this point and it was only
after the most accurate measurement
that he could be convinced that North
Carolina has several peaks higher than
Mt. Washington. The height of ut.
Washington, New Hampshire. is s.,
$50 feet while the height of the High
Peak, North Carolina, is 6, 707 feet
making a difference of more than 400
feet in favor of our High Peak. In
deed. the average of eight peaks of the
Black Mountains of North Carolina is
6.61O feet, or more than 300 feet higher
than Mt. Washington. So, also. the

BLACKw We have from Nessrs.
WooDHoUsE & PARHAM, the agents in this
city OF the American publishers, Btaclc-
GOODS Magazine for April. This venerable
magazine maintains with astonishing energy
its great fame. It has bad its very brilliant
periods-for instance, that when the electric
light OF the pen Of CHRISTOPHER NORTH illu-
mined its pages; but it may be said that
these were only the extreme elevations, like
those OF the Alps which rose from the range,
which never fell beneath the standard OF
grandeur. Blacknood still has its monthly
discourse on great political questions, in
which still predominates its enthusiastic de-
yotion to Great Britain and those stout SEN
timents denominated Glory" Russia has
furnished the editor with material for the
greater part OF two years. The concluding
paper OF the present No. is upon the Russo
Turkish question, the proposed congress
being the theme discussed BldckCood
says, sit is undoubtedly the duty OF this
"country to be prepared for prolonged
land arduous war, but at the same time ii
sis premature to abandon the hope that il
"may be averted." Or course it is. Nc
man knows this better than Lord BEAcoNs
FIELD. We hope Biacharood may be re-
lieved from the monthly discussion Of tho
Eastern question in little while.

CINCINNATI SOUTHERN.-The Legislature
OF Ohio has passed bill on the subject OF
the Cincinnati Southern railway, and the
people OF Cincinnati don't like it. 1t looks
as though they are all satisfied now that
they have the elephant. The Cincinnati
Commercial acknowledges mistakes, the
princiral one of which is that the city
"ought not to have gone into the business
of railroad-buiIding at all,'' ''but," says
that paper, So here we are" and it proceeds
to argue that the best Of the situation ought
to be made.
We would say that Cincinnati ought not
to have gone into railroad building unless
she builtaroad more likely to bring trade
to compensate for such vast debt as that
she assumed in building this southern road.
She will hardly thank us for our advice.
Still we should be glad if she can hit upon
the means OF utilizing that road.
We beg to add that the Queen City of the
Ohio may redeem her fortunes by making
an efficient connection with the grand high
way by the way of the Kanawha and James
rivers.

The Latest Coupon Case

The Court of Appeals yesterday because
OF divided bench dismissed the case which
involved the question OF the right Of the
State to tax the coupons Of her own bonds.
II the case had come up from court below,
the failure to reverse would have been
equivalent to an affirmation OF the declS-
ion of the inferior court. So the failure to
grant the mandamus may be construed to
be equivalent to an affirmation OF the right
OF the State TO tax the coupons. Practically
this will be the result, since the collecting
officers are bound to obey the law until it is
pronounced unconstitutional.
We publish to-day-accidentally, to-day
an opinion OF the Supreme Court OF the
United States, which in effect denies the
power OF the State TO collect the tax on her
bonds in the way in which she now collects
il. but leaves it to be inferred that she has
the power to collect such tax provided she
collects it in q different way-that is, pays
all she owes to the bondholder in the shape
OF interest-the full six per cent.-and then
makes the bondholder pay her the tax. Non
resident bondholdcrs she would, therefore,
have no means OF reaching.
These are interesting points.
Whether this last coupon case will be
taken up to the Supreme Court Of the
United States, or not, we do not know. II
it can be held to be n decision affirming the
validity OF the law in question under the
Federal Constitution, then it might be
taken up on appeal. Otherwise not. 1t will
not 60 up as matter OF course, as cases
are sometimes sent up on certificate Of q
divided Federal court.

Upon the passage Of senator 2 HtiaaAs,s
Pacific railroad funding bill the vote stood
243 to t,ro-BEs. Butler and LYNpe OF
Wisconsin. This Is within one OF the
smallest possible minority. BEN. declared
before the vote that no lawyer could vote
forft. The answer Of the House was that
every member except two in that body
voted for 1t. According TO BEN.Ss decision
there are but tuo latoyers In the body. In
the history of Congress we suppose there
is not another case in which bill that bad
been pronounced contraryto the eonstit'l-
ton by lawyer OF distinction-not BEN.
B., but Senator Ben. H.,-only received two
votes in the House OF Representatives. SUCH
slam is unprecedented. and to some extent
the victim OF the slam HUNTINGroN-ls an
