man, /" Principles. not men, the state can ~ .
not ,suffer greatly from the excitement OF
the political arena. # :. Everything for the
State, nothing for men, was theriie To- 70 Inc
better days Of the republic. That rule NOT
only insured, The maintenance of proper
public devotion, but it!fended to maintain
purity OF public morals and the conserva-
tion Of the, public welfare. il, s4a..it..
AT this time there IS . great, y necessity ior
: our people 10; recar to the early principles
q. our fathers and to cherish public deFo-
ton and repress partisan exeitementin mat
tiers relating to the public safety and the pub
lie welfare. sl
We aIlude especially to the public debt.
We have arrived at stage In its consioera-
tion when it behooves us oil, and especially
fbe members of the General Assembly OF
Virginia, to avoid undue excitement, 10
keen away from exaeerbation-especially to
avoid passionate pledges and commitments.
The matter is too solemn, too serious, ana
involves too large communities, too much
the public dignity and the welfare OF the
people, to be knocked about by impulslve
and needless declarations. We feel Il deep
grief whenever we read that man VINO
wears the toga OF high representative posi-
ton utters remarks that are inspired EVIL
IDENTIFY by impulse and prejudice. Such re-
marks cannot be INDUCED BY gentlemen
who properly appreciate the trust confded
to them. e>.'e "'a 80, -.
AL such impulsiveness and indiscretion
only places difficulties in the way OF WISE
considerate, and just conclusions. Nothing
now but calmness and freedom from preju-
dice can relieve our State and people from
the position OF embarrassment in which
they are placed. There are rights to be
considered, duties to be performed. They
must be approached with liberal minds and
comprehensive judgments. Justice will
not settle upon either extreme OF the pre-
sent conflict, and evaporation, il carried
too far, will surely mar our counsels and
impair public peace and welfare.
Therefore now is the especia! time to ele-
yate public interests and public duty above
personal excitement and personal motives.
1t is indeed time to give everything for
the State and nothing for men.

The Tobacco Tax.

Much injury has been inflicted upon a
minority which, has had not the rover to
protect itself. But as much as the interest
OF the tobacco.growin country has suffered
BY the tax, more still has come from the
doubtful condition in which the matter has
been SO long detained by the propositions for
amendment.
Now, the great desire of the tobacco trade
is that the question shall be settled. THE
long debate and the conference amongst
leading tobacco-men justify the hope that
the question may be settled at an early day,
and, what is better, that it is more than pro-
bable that it will be decided by a reduction
of the tax to sixteen cents. Should it be so,
there will be great and general rejoicing.
The uncertainty about the tax has kept
the prices Of tobacco all the time vibrating.
1t has been lamentable to see how this at
9ected the interests Of the small nanufac-
turers and threw the advantage upon the
side OF those who were wealthy. Settle the
question, and the enterprising beginners,
whose industry and activity are valuable to
the State, will find a new impulse To their
exertions, and the community at large fresh
stimulus to their occupation. e,-'a
One OF the worst Of things in this repub-
lie is the deIay-the provoking and almost
unaccountable deiay-that retards public
measures deeply affecting the Interests and
industry of the people. This tobacco tax
has been aneser-ending and ever.beginnihg
theme. No civilized country ever was more
vexed and injured BY the. consequent ces OF
the existence Ola personal fnterestin some
form or other OF the legislators in the fate
of measures decided by them. Thespoils
of legislation It is that cause the vigorous
conflicts over public measures and visit so
iearfuliy upon the citizen the misfortunes
of delay and the bias Of pecuniary interest
eDgendered by corruption. ~ i, ~ 5t}
It is certainly time that the tobacco ques--
ton should founder through. 1t has been
kept back long enough. We hope that the ma
iority of Congress will determine to settle
the question, and set the tobacco commune
ties free to make the best Of the situation. !.
