1t becomes our painful duty to announce
in this issue the death of this worthy gentle
man. On Saturday night last, near mid
night, his long and useful life came to a
close. Mr.. Bird had in his lifetime filed
with much credit, many public positions,
and his public record is spotless.
Before the county of Highland was organ
ized he served a term in the Virginia Leg
islature, from what was then Pendleton
county, and afterwards, in 1853, he served
one term as a delegate from Highland. He
was Surveyor for this county for u number
OF years, and the arduous duties OF this Office
he performed quite creditable. He was,
also, for quite q length Of time, President
of the County Court tunder the old SYSTEM
and at the time Of his death was General
Receiver Of the Circuit Court and, in fact,
in all the relations of life, in public and pri-
vate, his conduct justly won fer him the
name Of a good and faithful servant. Mr..
Bird had been feeble for the past two or
three years, and it was quite evident to his
friends that his race was nearly run. Yet
he retained his mental faculties TO q remark
able degree, and It's said, indeed, that he
transacted business the day before his death
He was in his goth year, and passed from
life to death with scarcely a struggle. lie
was well known throughout this aud adjoin
ing counties, and will long be remembered
for his many good qualities. His doors were
always open TO the wayfarer-was snip
porter of the gospel with his means, and
ministers always found hearty welcome
beneath bis roof.
EIe was buried on Monday afternoon near
his house. The funeral services were con-
Quoted by Rev. j. X. Gilbert, and notwitll-

CONSTITUTIONAL AaIENDaIENT.-On the
18th Mr.. Fauntleroy, introduced the follow
ing resolution in the Legislature:
Resolced, That the Joint Committee of
the Senate and House of Delegates upon
Constitutional Amendments inquire as to
the expedlency Of SO amending the Sth sec
tion Of the Sth article of the Constitution of
Virginia as to provide that all money raised
by taxation for public school purposes in
any county Of this Commonwealth, shall be
expended or applied to the use and behoof
Of the public schools of the county where
raised, and to none other Or otherwise, and
report by bill to that end.
We think it would be infinitely better to
call Convention and frame a new Consti-
tuition, than to be patching up the present Or
ganic law in this way. There are now at least
half dozen propositions before the Legisla-
ture to amend the Constitution, and every
one knows from past experience that amend
ments adopted as the Legislature now pre-
scribes, do not receive that consideration
from the people they should.

Future Punishment.

As promised in our last, we publish the
views OF three eminent divincs upon the
subject Of future punishment, combating
those heretofore presented from Canon Far-l
rar, DR.. Swing and Mr.. Beecher. 1t is a
subject that is engaging the attention of
theological scholars very generally through
out this country, and interesting the gener-
al reader TO degree OF intensity we have
not observed for mary years. outside of po-
litical disputations. OF course, to the we'll
grounded theologian in the methods and ac-
ceptances of the past, the thoughts advanced
by Canon Farrar and those who sympathize
with him, are inyasions of the precincts of
orthodoxy, mischievious in their tendency
and heteroaox in their premises. Our cor
respondent 'sUlric," difficnlt as it is for him
to catch at passing eScitcments, seems to
be impressed with the necessity OF contribu-
ting his share to arresting the influence that
might follow the advanced views of the
Canon. and other thinkers ON the subject of
ike sympathy. Our object in the publica-
tons has been to acquaint our readers with
what is going on even in the theological
world, and give them an opportunity to de
vote some of their spare moments to a mat
ter that must Immediately affect each indi
vidual. Individually, our mind has long
since been made up on this subject and no
amount of Ingenious casustry or metaphy.
steal refining could change the convictions
we have cultivated and upon which we are
satisfied to rest. Is is not necessary to elab-
crate the reasons which control us. or dis
cuss the theories suggested. They would be
crude at best ard not instructive to the gen
eral reader. and somewhat foreign to the
province of these columns. We are satisfied
IT a man does not live right here in this state
of probation, he will have to suffer for it
hereafter when probation is not admitted
that this is the preparatory state. and as we
sow here SO shall we reap hereafter. We be-
leve in future punishment, but whether
and fire literally, is rot material. 1t is
enough TO believe that it is punishment to
be avoided, and only SO through revealed
agencies and influences. The monitor
placed within lis teaches this, and if any
one deludes himself with the belief that he
will realize anything but what is tanta-
mount to the SHELF described in the bible,
he will be very apt to find his mistake when
it is too late, unless we are to accept the as
founding doctrine of ''Bishop snow,'' in a
discourse in the hall of the College of Ply
sicians and Surgeons of New York, that
'sthe soul ceases at death to be living soul,
and the Immortality of the human soul is
heathenish fable, "a doctrine that shocks
the moral sense of civilization, and tlaunts
defiance in the face of revealed religion.

DEPARTMENT INVESTIGATIONS. - The
Baltimore Suns Washington correspondent
Of the 22d says Representative Glover, of
Missouri, at the invitation OF the President,
has called upon him and had a lengthy in
terview with him in regard to the proposed
Investigations to be made by the commit
tees of the House. Mr.. Glover is the author
OF the resolution ordering the investigations
The President received him very cordially,
and said that he was in favor of the fullest
investigation into all matters, and that he
would assist the committees in all proper
inquiries that they may make by affording
to them every facility in his power. Mr..
Glover said he was glad to hear the Presi-
dent express himself in favor Of investiga-
tions, and reminded him that all the oppo-
sition to the resolution in the House came
from the Republican side of the House.

TAXING CIaARs.-On the 18th, Mr.. Ash
ton presented an act imposing a tax and
prescribing the mode Of collecting the same,
on the privilege of selling cigars and cigar
cites within the limits of this Common
wealth for the support OF the government,
and to pay the interest on the public debt.
The bill provides that no person shall sell
cigars and cigarettes without having obtain
ed license therefor.

gar or package of cigarettes the crank has

lars for the Register, and one cent on each
cigar and two cents on each package of ci-
garettes sold.

We do not think any Southern Republican
can doubt the sincerity of the late Senator
Morton's Repnblicansm. This being so, it
is we'll enough to remind those who are dis
posed to carp at the Presidents administra-
tive policy, that the last political expressions
given by the deceased Senator were in COM
mendation and endorsement of what the
President is doing. Some who are opposing
the President woald not dare to follow
where Senator Morton lead in defence Of
Southern Republicans, and this being the
case it is we'll enough to reflect little be-
fore the dead Senator is condemned and the
living Senators approved who stood back
