Hayes Veto of the Funding Bill.


The last important official act OF the
retiring President was his veto OF the
funding bill, an act intended for the pro-
lection Of the people against the rspscity
OF the National Banks. And the Presi.
dent certainly viewed the act in that
light, for in his message to Congress is
found this remarkable clause:
"while in my opinion il would be wise
to authorize the Secretary Of the Treas
|ury, in bis discretion, to offer to the pub
lic bonds bearing 81 per cent interest, in
aid OF refunding, I should not deem it nv
duty to interpose my Copsliiptional OBJ
lection to the passage OF the present bill,
II 1t didn't contain in its 9th section
provisions which, in my judgment, seri-
ously impair its value and tend tn the
destruction OF the present National bank
sys,em OF the country"
The fifth section of the act provides
that oil new banks organised shall de-
posit ; per cent bonds to secure their
circulation. and "from and after July.
1, 1881. the 5 per cent honda authorized
by the frst section Of this act shall be
the only bonds receivable - security for
The National Bank circulation, or as Sc
curity for the safe keeping and prompt
payment Of the public money deposited
with such banks" &c.
The President argues agaiust the
above in this wise:
1T takes from the banks the right they
have heretofore had under the Law to
purchase and deposit as security for
their, circulation, any OF the. bonds issued
lhy the United States. and deprives the
hillholder Of the best security which the
hanks are able to give, by requiring them
to deposit the bonds having the leas,
vslue Of any bonds issued BY the Gov.
srnmsnt." ,si
That is the plea Of the counsel for the
1SsSouss Os"Hcs' "ou'u sue ou'uoi"et
DO sny the less secure we're the bankers
% deposit 100000 in bonds bearing >
per cent interest. thsnshe would be were
they TO deposit 100000 IN bonds bear
ing Per cent INTEREST," Certainly. not,
but Mr.. HAYES friends. the bankers,
'wonld receive per cent less in the way
OF interest on every dollar OF bonds de-
posted. and there is exactly where the
bankers shoe is piuched.
He then goes on with an additional
|ples BY saying:

VERDICT IN THE cowmDiSs CASE COTTON

correspondence OF tho Richmond D'spaich.l
DECEMBER 3. 1881.
In the Circuit Court this morning the
iurv IN the case Of +. Levi rs. Nj. X. saal,
ihc former suing for $4,000 damages Tor IN.
iurv 10 person and character by reason OF
on assault with a cowhide, rendered YER
dict for the plaintiff Of SSl2.5O for exem-
nlary damages and one cent for compensa-
tory damages. The case was very aDiy ar
gued ON both sides. II IL understood tliat
the iury when they disagreed stood as f0l-
lows. three for $500 and nine for 800.
the receipts OF cotton at this port iof inc
week ending to-day amounted TO l,yV
balcs. or over twice as much as for the cor
responding week Of last year. The total
receipts from September lst TO date are H.
zoo bales as against $500 bales for The same
period last year. The receipts OF tobacco
iloosc excepted are not as large as last
year. a.,
The mortuary record in Petersburg this
wear shows the demise OF an unusually large
proportion OF old citizens, ranging i'll age
from seventy to ninety years. There nave
been few deaths OF persons who had near
" or quite reached the dignity OF centena-
riaus. and in one instance the age was re-
corded a. 10 years. ROBIN ADAlN'

That Case.

a lawyer-iriend has handed to us the
Virginia Lo,r journal for August, and has
suggested to lis that the case OF Weber as.
State Of Virginia, therein reported, is the
one alluded TO by our Pulaski confrere in
the little paragraph which we yesterday
copied from his paper, The People. The
case was decided by the Supreme Court OF
the United States on the I'd OF May last.
The syllabus is as follows, and fully con-
firms what we said yesterday. We quote
"The right conferred by the patent laws
IF the United States TO inventors to sell
their inventions and discoveries does not
take the tangible property in which the in
vention or discovery may be exhibited OF
carried into effect from the operation of the
tax on license-laws OF State. IL is only
the right to the invention or discovery the
tncorporeal right-that the State cannot in
teriere with. Accordingly, State law re.
mlring license for the sale OF patented
scwiug-machine would not, for that reason,
be invalid.
IN State law requiring an agent for the
sale OF articles manufactured in other States
90 take out hcease and pay fee therefor,
and not requiring an agent for the sale OF
articles manufactured in the State TO take
out license and pay fee, Is invalid as III
terfering with commerce between the
States"
The meaning Of the syllabus is so clear
that we need add TO 1t no words OF ouI
owu.

A REAL ROMANCE.
The uciress Of Six Millions Secret
Marriage.

OLD POlEr COMFORT, December IA
romance has Just come TO light here in
regard to the marriage OF Miss Fargo, the
heiress OF six millions, made by her father
i'm Wells & Fargo's express. She became
engaged during the past summer to Lieu
tenant II. G.. Squires, OF the army, stationed
at Fort Monroe. Her mother opposed the
match, but the young lady having a spirit
OF her own, determined TO circmnvent
parental opposition, so on the 18th OF last
October she and Lieutenant Squires went
for a walk from the Hygeia Hotel to
Hampton. On reaching Hampton they
went 10 the house of the Rev. Mr..
Gravatt, and announced their inten-
ton of being married then and there. Mr..
Grayalt made no objection TO tying the
knot, but owing TO the serious illness of
his wife the party adjourned TO the house
OF neignbor. MIR. hefleliinger, where the
ceremony was performed. Mr.. and Mrs.
Squires then returned to Old Point. No
body suspected they were married, as the
clergyman and witnesses had been bound
over to secrecy. Towards the last OF De-
tober Miss Fargo, as she was still called,
left with her mother for their home in
Buffalo, and few days afterwards Mr..
Squires followed her and claimed his wife.
Locking the stable-door was no use then,
so Mr.. and Mrs. Squires returned TO Fort
Monroe, and the marriage was published
as having taken place on the 18th OF Octo-
Der. SO well had they kept their secret
that not the least suspicion was awakened
In regard to the true state Of the case, and
the announcement was a thunderclap to
their most intimate friends.

yvon.t confess-The Remedy.

w
On FRIDAY we reduced CsMERoN's negro
vote IN Virginia at the late election down
IN the very low figure Of 10000, In the
none that the Wing would appreciate our
generous iiberality 10 a party which did
not wish 90 own that too large majority
OF lis members were negroes, and applaud
ma for conccding that Colonel CAMERON
might possibly have received forty-three
thousand white votes. We can tell
rho Wig that there are not many regu-
lar Democrats who will concede that he
received more than $4,000 white votes.
Look at the letters we have published from
Elizabeth City county, Albemarle, Isle OF
wight. Piusylvaria, Gloucester, and else
where. Let each man do as we dom hlch-
mond-look at the vote in bis own city Tor
town, or county, or precinct), ana 'heh
Judge for himself rs TO what proportion OF
the white men Of Virginia cast their Dali
lots for CAMERON and the LaDDLEBERGEB
bill. The negroes have voted down the
whites. and voted up the reputation OF
many millions Of dollars OF Nirgini4S own
bonds now outstanding. But we leave
shat question now to General MALONE and
the bondholdcrs.
How shall the negroes ever succeou IN
getting their services in behalf OF CAM
ERoN and reputation rccogn:zedY They
can easily prove their preponderanee IN
the party by concert Of action all over the
state at the next elections. They can,
through their clubs, provide for keeping
a record Of every negro vote east for the
Coalition ticket, and thus make good their
claim 10 a large share Of the Offices at the
disposal OF the party. Here in Richmond,
for illustration. there j. to be q Mayor elected
next spring. What could be more easily
Effected than the makingsOf complete list
of an the negroes who shall yCte the Coaiii-
ton ticket. The negroes arc very bold in
voting their own way, and would take
pleasure in showing their tickets to the
tally-keepcrs. Il they hope ever to have
their relative strength and importance t.
