When tie Virginia members OF Congress
were trying to have the tx 90 tobacco reduced,
and mentioned as one Of the reasons therefor
that their State, by that tax. paid more internal
revenue than oil New England, their republican
colleagues who opposed that reduction laughed
the argument founded on such reason to
sco.a aud proper;y. There were excellent rea'
sous Why the tax on tobacco should have been
reduced, but the ono alluded 10 was not laciud'
ID among them. Tho tex on tobacco, as on
everything else, is paid by tho consumer ard
not by the producer, and tho republicans aVaied
themselves Of this irrefragiblo truth 10 their
orrositiou to tho reduction of the tobacco tax,
and but for the democratic majority would have
defeated it. Like many other truths. however,
this one, though mighty, docs not prevail, and
it is owing to this fact that some of tho same
republican gentlemen VINO made legitimate
sport Of tho reason rciorrcd to. with MIR. Conk-
ling at their head, arc nOw deludiog tho people
of the North with the statement that that seq
lion pays all tho duties on tho imports, AID
that tho attempt OF the South TO limit or re-
strict the expenditures Of tho money SO coll
lccIed is piece OF cool assurance that demands
the sovcrcst condemnation of solid North.
But this is not to DO wondered at, for the do
mauds of tho times can always be supplied. aud
as long as tho people Of the North want TO be
deceived there will always DO sufficient crop
of deceivers especially when these deceiVerS will
profit by the deception they practice. p,

Nov that the Democratic party is
in power, many of the Republican
journals and leaders exhibit much
anxiety about its welfare and tender
considerable amount of free advice
HOY to save it, We have noticed
for the last fifteen years that the
Radicals have shown quite an inter-
est in the welfare of the Democratic
party, but we would advise them not
to worry themselves or give way to
an unfounded grief. The Democrat
ic party can take care of itself, it is
in nc decline; it isn't going to pine
away and die like an autumn flower
under the influence of a blighting
frost; it is strong and robust; its
limbs are 1.-THE and sinewy, and its
constitution unimpaired. And, mark
the prediction, it will do the business
of this country, when the Republican
Presidential robbing party has pass
ed from the stage Of action and
sleeps beside the old Wing party.

The President is authorized under
the constitution TO send troops TO any
point within the United States, when
an instruction exists, upon the call
OF the Legislature or the Governor OF
a State.-REGIsTER.
No body disputes this. 1t is the
s~tationing of troops at election pre-,
cincts when everything is peace and
quiet. and no Instruction exists,
that the Democrats are fighting. II
is not the Constitutional provision
asked to be repealed, but the bill
putting troops at election precincts
whenever a lot of ballot-box suffers
and bummers demand it, to shield
them in their infamous work of fraud
Was their any 'in~surrection'' in Gin
