The Statesman has long editorial
discussing whether the United States i
a nation or merely a league of sover-
eign, independent states. The States
man likes to linger in the shadows of
the past-tc Groom over the dear. dead
memories of Gang syne." Next thing it
will be wanting TO know whether the
importation of African slaves into the
south is legal. There was a big argu-
ment years ago about this question of
"nation or league The debaters were
fierce and earnest, and bullets and hayo.
nets were the arguments. phe debate
lasted four years. The "league' side Of
the house strove with Il Aeroism ss
grand and pure as the world ever saw.
but the national principle triumphed.
Let the Statesman wrestle with real
live question-something that is an issue
in fact-how TO prevent the accumula-
ton of enormous leash balances" for
example. It is 1882 that we are living
n, and not 1860.

british Free Trade

In the communication of Consul Dock
cry, Leeds, England, to the State Depart
ment OF the United States, dated Septem-
Der list last, occurs the following, which
speaks for itself:
India is yet a comparatively open market
ITO Englandl through the pressure of an
enormous garrison, but this may not last
long II there be anything in the following
opinion OF an intelligent Hindoo merchant,
reported in one OF the London papers:
Free trade may be a very nice thing for
England, but it is very lad thing for In
dia. We are now undersold and ruined in
every direction as regards our manufac-
lures. THOSE who believe IN building up
manufactures i'm the South will please note
this.-ED.l
The cost Of living is greatly increased,
aud the value Of the rupee has diminished.
Before we had the disadvantage OF ac-
Quaintance with England these millions OF
people manufactured everything required
for their own wants, and the native gov
ernments protected their own manufac-
lures.
Now England has got firm hold of this
great peninsula; she buys the raw material
here and i'm other countries, and mandates
India and undersellS us in everything with
cheap goods and clothes OF all descriptions.
What is the result to Indiay The people
have been ruined and driven into the fields
as laborers and agriculturists, that the peo-
pie OF Manchester and Birmingham may
make millions OF money ut our expense.
We are beaten and undersold at every
point, and still the Manchester Chamber Of
Commerce cries for further reduction OF
our import duties for their advantage and
our greater ruin.
This is what you call governing India
for the Indians.
You must he great fools if you think that
the people Of India cannot and do not I'M
derstand and see through all these false
pretences.
You must be greater fools il YOU think
that we love English rule becauseit is just.
We prefer our own rule-the rule OF Hin
doc and Mohammedan kings and princes,
who spent the revenues OF India and did
not export them TO London for the payment
of large pensions to thousands Of officers
and civilians, rs well as TO the wives and
families of tine same.
The English do not spend half their
large incomes i'm India.
Sahib. remember you are only encamped
i'm India: we sec the flash of your bayonets
at every station, and we know what devils
YOU are TO fight against black races.
But we are Patient people. We wait
for the time when you will have great wars,
demanding all your men aud ships, when
YOU will meet with defeat; then you will
have to withdraw large numbers of your
soldiers from India.
We will have something to say hereafter
about the effect of British free trade on the
interests Of Portugal and Turkey.

The SMALLPOX.

There were sixteen deaths In Richmond
from smallpox reported week before last,
eight reported last week, and only six re-
ported In this mornings DiSpdtch-mostly
negroes in every instance. That Is an en-
couraging exhibit. The reports daily made
by DIR. J. GRATTAN CABELL, the president OF
the BOARD OF Health. show that there are
really very few new cases occurring IN this
city, and that OF these a very small proper
ton occur amongst the white people.
There Is, therefore, really no occasion
for any anxiety, much less for any alarm,
on the part Of anybody either residing or
sojourning in Richmond. But we all know
that the panic caused 10y cholera, small
pox, or any other disease, is not TO be ar
gued ont OF existence. II Is waste OF
time to attempt TO do so. People who live
in the country cannot but feel more or less
Of measiness and restlessncss when they
are sojourning amongst strangers, ana
eating, drinking, and sleeping at tables ana
in houses which constantly present them
with the sight Of new faces.
We suggest, therefore, particularly as 10
the members OF the General Assembly, that
-four City Councilcould do anythingto quiet
their fears and make themieel as safe here as
il they were at home, that thing ought to
be done. Itwould be a pity that any ques-
ton as to the expenditure OF few hun
bred dollars should he allowed TO stand in
the way OF the continued presence OF the
Legislature in this city, especially when it
is known that TO permit the members TO be
sfampcded hence by fear Of the small
pox would result in great damage to the
business interests Of Richmond.

Railroad Accidents.

II Is time that railroad accidents, such as
the one which happened in New York inc
other day, had become less frequent. IL IS
claimed for every railroad-at least by It's
own oiiicials-that II provides carefully
against all avoidable accidents. But we
are taught every day by facts that such is
not the CAGE. Railroad collisions ought TO
be entirely unknown-that is. one kind OF
so-called accidents" which ought never
to be allowed TO happen. Clearly they are
avoidablc accidents; especially those COLI
sions which occur, as was the case in the
New York accident we have alluded to, in
consequence OF one train catching up to
and colliding with another, or running
into IL whilst 1t Is standing on a switch or
turnout.
They say that the ladies talk least in the
month OF February because that is the short
est month. If railroad accidents continue
to be as common and as fatal as they have
recently been, somebody will say that the
men who travel least will live the longest,
because they most seldom incur the risk OF
q journey by rail.
As one member OF the New York Legis-
lature was killed by the late accident in that
State, the Graphic iniers that the surviving
members of that body will try to devise
some measure which will enable them to
visit their families once in while without
running the risk Of being killed OH the way.
That remark reminds one Of SYDNEY SMITHS
remedy for railroad accidentS-namely, ty-
ing a director or two on the engine.

The Bill OF Rights is now part OF the
State Constitution OF virginia-not mere
declaration Of abstract principles. 1t is the
Constitution, therefore, which provides as
follows:
"The declaration OF the political rights
State is hereby declared to be part Of the
Constitution OF this Commonwealth, and
shall not be violated on any pretence ,chdt-
eUer."
The Bill OF Rights provides as follows:
"That the Legislative, Executive, and
Judicial powers should be separate and dis
tinct."
Act II. Of the Constitution provides as
follows:
"The Legislative, Executive, and Judi
ciary departments shall be separate and
distinct, so that neither exercise the pow
ers properly belonging to either OF the
Others"
1t is judges right TO appoint his own
commissioners in chancery. It surely
can't be the Governors right. The Balti-
more Gazette says on this subject
lie parry VII power III vi Sihli i pcllt
on yindictye iaw-making, and will make
new offices out OF everything, private or
public, by which ITS patronage will be in
creased. We observe propositions TO take
the appointment of commissioners in chan
Gerry from the circuit Judges and place it in
the hands of the Governor, and another
proposition Is pending to make commits
sioner OF sales for every county, to be SINH
larry appointed, TO have charge OF all real
estate directed TO be sold under DEGREES OF
court. Thus il will be seen that well
established methods OF business will be
abolished TO make way for appointments
that will reward the faithful under the plea
that the reputable men who discharged
special duties heretofore in connection with
the condolences Of business were a set OF
political yipcrs.'"

Cotton-Growing on the South Side


Early last year we suggested the pro-
priety of cotton-planting on the south side
by our growers Of dark tobacco. We
urged and have repeated the same quite
lately that this course presented the great
est possible promise Of relief known to us,
and we are gratiiied to find that we were
not mistaken. In conversation few days
ago with one OF the Oldest OF our COM
mission merchants we were informed
that several of his customers on the
south side had acted upon our suggestion,
and that while all OF them did well, one in
particular succeeded so handsomely, in
spite OF the fearful drought that prevailed,
AS TO have at Christmas money enough to
pay his hands, to clean of large debt Of
several years standing, and have comfort
able balance to his credit. This farmer will
put as much OF his best land in tobacco this
spring as he can thoroughly manage, and
the rest in cotton, giving due attention, Of
course, to his food-crops, and his brethren
will do wisely If they will follow his exam
pie.
There is not much danger OF our produ-
cling too much cotton. The range Of con-
sumption increases yearly as trade is ex-
tended throughout the world, and it is a
fact that American cotton, the price suiting,
is preferred everywhere. When our peo-
pie producing it give the attention they
should to their iood-crops, we shall grow it
at price that will pay us handsomely, and
destroy utterly the competition of all other
cottons

The OVster-Beds.

Mr.. SuRIvER, of Baltimore. will to-day
appear before committee OF the Virginia
Legislature and give il the benefit OF his
knowledge of oysters and his long expe-
ricnce in the oyster trade. He fully agrees,
we learn, with Lieutenant WINsLOw in the
conclusions reached by the latter, and
which were alluded to by the Dispatch
several weeks ago. This is really not only
an important matter as a matter of bust
ness-poitical economy, if you choose
but comes home. or is likely TO come home
at an early day. to the stOmachS and peck
els Of all lovers of the delicious bivalve.
We hope that some practical measure may
result from the steps which have already
been taken in our Legislature to procure
such information on this interesting sub
iect as will justify legislation.

Journalists as Jurymen.

A journalist Of this city was yesterday
summoned as 4 juryman in the Criminal
Court, and asked TO be excused on the
ground that his time was fully occupied
and that the paper on which he was en-
gagged would be Inconvenience by his abb
sence. Judge Pinkney at once granted his
request, and remarked that he was opposed
TO taking newspaper-men from their duties
and placing them on jury unless they so
wished ii. There were, he said, sufficient
citizens TO choose therefrom without taking
those whose services are so Indispensable
10 the public. - Baltimore Sun.

How "Free-Trade" England Serves
Virginia Tobacco.

Virginia TOBACCO.
We find the following in the dispatch
of United States Consul DocKERY to the
State Department. II bears date 1st Sep
TENDER last:
The English affect great repugnance TO
any country that has tariff Of 80 or 100
per centum dd Ual0rem OH any article. In
their own country on one article duty Of
nearly tpo thousand per cent. is charged
and collected; this article yields them
their largest item OF customs revenue, and
il comes chiefly from the United States.
Tobacco Is the article. IL is claSscd in
their own tariff list as an article subject TO

tinction 70 a counteryailing duty" such,
for instance, ny the customs duty
