County on the Tobacco

Alta public meeting OF the citizens OF
Cumberland county held at the Courthouse
on the 23d day OF December, 1878, in which
an expression of the sentiments OF both
white and colored was had, Captain VIII
liam A. Perkins was called to the chair. and
James +. Clarke requested to act as secre-
tary.
The Chairman explained the object OF the
meeting, setting forth the onerous burdens
imposed upon this section of the country
in the unjust and discriminating tax on our
tobacco. and appointed the following gen.
tIemen -Messrs. james A. GSgg, j. L..
Banks, John II. Hatcher, S. p. Powers, Ed
ward Gillian, L. L. Ager, and j. E.
Clarkc-to draft suitable resolutions petit
tionng Congress to relieve our grievances.
The committee reported the following,
which were UNANIMOUSLY adopted by the
meeting:
1. Resolved, That we, the citizens of
Cumberland county, Va, located in one Of
the principal tobacco-growing sections OF
the country, feel the burden OF the unjust
and unequal levy upon the prime staple Of
our section, which is alone adapted to the
growth Of tobacco, and to which the masses
Of the people alone look for support; and
that continuance Of this discriminating
tax VIII SOON QcSLfOS the value VI Oui iauus,
as the production of this crop is the only
thing that gives them value, and alike de-
strov all hope of the laboring class obtain
ing support for self and families.
2. ReS0lued, That we assert our loyalty
to the Government in willingness 10 bear
our just portion Of the public revenues,
but we most respectfully maintain that
taxation should be uniform, and that the
spirit Of the Constitution forbids any dis
elimination against one staple OF the coun-
try to the exclusion OF levy on another sta
pie, thereby burdening part Of the people
to the advantage OF other; that we as land
holders and laborers, feel agrleved at this
unjust tax, and pray your honorable bodies
to afford the relief in removing all tQG from
this staple.
8. Resolved, That copy OF these reso-
lutions be forwarded to our representatives
and senators in Congress, with the earnest
request to use their best eXertions to afford
the relief that justice and fair-pay demand.
4. ReSolued, That 4 copy Of these resolu-
tons be sent to the Richmond Wing and
Dispatch and the FarmvilIe Mercury, with
the request that they publish the same.

CUMBERLAND COUNTY.
Correspondent of the Richmond Dispatch

correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.l
CUMBERLAND, December 90, 1878.
The December term Of the County Court
Of Cumberland commenced on the fourth
Monday, the 23d. 1t did not adjourn until
the 2Sth. and the Court tried fourteen felo-
mics and two misdemeanors. A portion OF
tue criminals were tried for breaking. open
the storehouSe Of Mr.. Starnell, about nine
miles below the Courthouse, and another
portion for breaking open the barn OF Dir.
James Miller, near Gainesville, on two oc-
caSionS. One man was concerned in all
these burglaries, and was no doubt the in
stigator OF them all. He was q noted crmi-
nal, having been before convicted OF house
breaking in Powhatan and Buckingham, and
having broken out OF both jails before lie
could be taken to the pcnitentiary. He
nassed under three names, Andrew Jack
son, Charley Hooper, and Jim Harris, and
was sentenced under the three indictm ants
found against him for eighteen years. Two
others were sentenced for ten years each.
All the others charged with felony were
punished by whipping and Imprisonment.
Great interest was felt in the trials, for the
burgIarles were accomplished by an organ
lied band, the houses being surrounded by
men armed and prepared to shoot down any
person who might endeavor to stop them.
They were prosecuted by Colonel S. F.
Coleman with unusual ability, and were well
defended by Mr.. Edgar Allan, Of Farmville,
and Colonel D. J. Woodtin. OF Bucking-
ham. Judge Dabney presided. The Court,
the witnesses, the jury, and the counsel de-
serve great credit for the calm patience
shown by all in these protracted trials-con-
tinued sometimes to late hour in the night
without any intermission, except at night
during the very BAD weather anc extreme
cold, which was so great in the courthouse
that some of the trials were conducted
around stove. J.

These States aggregate vote Of 1873, and
not one Of those, as matters now 'ooh, can
be expected for Republican at the general
election. There are, therefore. 1873 votes
certainly Democratic, against 231, OF which
the Republicans are sure or for which there
is a lighting chance.
Forty.seven votes taken from the north
ern side and added TO the southern would
make majority. Thus, ii candidate
could control the vote OF the southern
States, he would require only forty-seven
from the North to nominate. The States,
therefore, that could virtually do nothing to-
ward an election might control The nomlnl.
ton. This would be manifestly unfair. 1t
might be disastrous.
Representation in the Republican Nation
al Convention has been based on the electo-
raj vote to which each State IS entitled.
Thus, a Democratic State is as powerful IN
nominating convention, in proportion to It's
electoral vote, rs Republican State, ana IN
choosing the candidate Democratic votes
count as much as Republican votes. This
rule is not adopted in State conventions, Or
even in county conventions, In Ohio. The
basis here is the Republican vote cast at
preceding election. Thus, Republican coun-
lies have voice ia the convention proper
tionate to their vote, and not in proportion
to population, This is fair rule. and it
should be adopted by the National Commit
tee OF this no State would have any right
to complain. 1t would give to each a,vcice
in choosing the candidate in proportion TO
tie Republican vote Of the State.
This is matter that is in the bands OF the
National Committee, and it should be con-
sidered and acted upon at an early day.
The sooner the better, because candidates
have not yet laid their wires. 1t may be
said, indeed, that there arc no candidates in
the field.
While the Republican party will have it
within Its power to choose the next Pres
dent, the election of their candidate cannot
be said to be foregone conclusion. The
result, therefore, will depend very largely
upon what the candidate, in his person,
shall represent. If he snail be an able,
pure, and popular statesman he will be sue
cessfuI; but il, on the other hand, the cam
didate should offend the conscience OF
large class of Republicans, he would be de-
ieated, '

Thurman and the Banks.

Especial TO the Philadelphia Times
WASHINGTON, December 29.-It Is said
that Senator Thurman, soon after the reas-
sembling of Congress, will make a speech
on the finances, taking the same course he
did in Ohio, and advocating the replacing
of national-bank notes with green backs, and
prohibiting the farther issue OF notes on
the part OF the banks. Mr.. Hewitt says in
conversation that il Mr.. Thurman makes
such speech he will answer it in the House
by speaking in favor Of the banks. He SAYS
that If the Democrats commit themselves to
the Thurman idea and IL becomes part OF
their principles then be shall feel compelled
to bid goodbye TO the Democratic party.
He says he.does not intend to make but one
speech more in Congress, and that speech
will be In favorof maintaining the present
nationaLbank system. He says it is the
best that was ever devised, and that it fought
TO be perpetuated.s lnanswer to question
as to whether he had any interest in any
national bank he answered that he did not
own a dollars worth OF stock in any bank,
and never was interested 10 one further than
as depositor or borrower. He said he
could speak without exciting the charge
that he was Improperly interested.

FACTS TO BE LOOKED AT BEFORE THE S0MI-

The discussion OF the probabilities OF the

fact that some Of the aspirants or friends OF

South to carry them through. 1t VIII rot
be hard to manipulate that vote. The Re
publicans have hardly an organization in
the southern States, and it will not be diff
cult TO pack delegations to the National
Convention; but If an Objectionable candI-
date should be forced upon the party by the
votes OF States that would amount to no
thing In the election, the result would be
disastrous. THIS is something thai ought
to be considered by party managers in adj
