under the immense pressure OF exertion and

that led to the passage Of this bill cannot
fail for the want Of the approval OF the
Federal Executive.
For years the tobacco trade, which con-
stitutes so important q part OF the export
commerce OF the country, has been kept in
a condition Of disturbance that has been
feariully detrimentalto the community en-
gagged in the culture and manufacture OF
tobacco. All saw the disastrous conse-
auences Of this disturbance, and by com
mon consent it has been agreed that If the
tax be reduced to sixteen cents there would
be no renewal OF an agitation fol- further
reduction for years to come. We repeat
that a bill carried through as this was should
receive The approval OF the Federal Execu-
tive, aud We believe will.
II we are right, we may congratulate our
people. The putting Of the tobacco tax to
rest will afford great deal OF relief to this
community. 1t is true that it does not go
into effect until the 1st OF May, but the
question is settled aud operations will begin

We are s:neither prophet nor thes son OF
a prophet; but, resting our prediction
upon the most reasonable and practical ba-
sis, we hesitate not to declare that. no man
who votes against the settlement upon the
basis OF the bondholders' proposition can be
elected to Congress. That measure will re-
store peace and well. ordered industry to
the people Of Virginia, and any man who
votes to deprive Virginians of those bless
ings will not be elected to Congress by those

Mr.. EoHoLs, in reply to Mr.. MoFFETT,
contended that the effect Of the bill was NOS
such as was claimed by the latter. But be
said that under the operation Of the bili,ssby
July, 1880, nearly one half Of the debt would
In any event be refunded, and the amount
remaining at the end OF two years could by
any possibility be butssa small fraction Of the
whole. II, as is expected, the refunding
should 60 on rapidly, SO that the bulk OF the
bonds would come in during the first year,
it would certainly be folly to make the small
cost Of bonds which came struggling in at
the end bear different dates. 1t would be-
