IMPORTANT DECISION VIRGINIA Cou.
PoEs RECEIVABLE For TAxEs.-The Vir.
ginia Supreme Court OF Appeals in Rich.
mond, on the goth ult. rendered de
cision declaring that the provision of the
act of 1870, known as the McCulloch bill,
exempting State obligations from taxa
ton. was not unconstitutional, but valid,
and that the State was bound to receive
the coupons attached to the bonds issued
under said act at their face value in pay.
ment of the taxes and other demands of
the State. Another point decided was
that tho law making said coupons re-.
ceivable for taxes and other dues of the
State was constitutional and valid.
In explaining why he did not sit in this
case and hal not SAT in others of similar
import, Judge Moncure. president Of tLe
court, explained that all his possessions
consisted of State bonds, which he inves.
ted his money in years ago He did so
because he believed that all the property
of the Commonwealth and the honor of
every man and woman within its limits
was bound for her debts. He did not
believe, he said, that his State would
repudiate her Indebtedness, nor per.
init him 70 lose his money.

The love that survives the tomb Is the
noblest attribute of the soul. If IL has
woes, it has likewise its designs and
when the overwhelming burst Of grief is
lulled into the gentle tear Of recollection,
then the sudden anguish and convulsive
agony over the present ruins of all we
most loved are softened away into pen
sive meditation Of all that it was in the
days Of its loneliness. Who would root
such a sorrow from the hearth Though
it may sometimes throw passing cloud
over the bright hour Of gayety, or spread
adceper sadness over the hours Of gloom,
yet who would exchange it for the song
Of pleasure or the burst of revelry2 No;
there is voice from the tomb sweeter
thsa song, there is a remembrance of
thu dead TO which we turn even from the
charm Of the living.

WILD Docs IN THE WEsr.-For seve-
raj years pack Of wild dogs have been
known in the Yellowstone Valley. They
are described a. resembling cross be-
tween wolf and a spaniel. A more saw
age pack of wolf dogs are now reported
I'm the wilds Of Northwestern Nebraska.
It is said that about two years ago two
bulldogs joined . band of wolves near
the head of the Birdwood, and have re.
manned With them ever since. Within
the past year species Of dog-wolf, cup
posed to be the offspring Of the escaped
bulldogs, have been committing depre-
dations In that section. They nre said
to possess the cunning OF the wolf com.
bined with the ferociousness and pluck
of the bulldog. and are consequently
much more to be dreaded than the com.
mon prairie wolf, and are far more bold
and savage. The Deadwood Times says
that thoy are becoming numerous and
quite troublesome. Scientific American.
