No country in the history of the world has
ever paid such taxes as the United States
under Republican rule All the papcr in cir
ouias'on amounts only to 5000, 600, 900. In
the last seventeen years, since the war. the
Government has collected from the people
50, OOO, OOO, 600, that is, if paper money only
had been used, every dollar of it would have
passed from the people into the Treasury ten
times The government receipts last wear
wore nearly twice as much as the value of the
entire cotton crop. The government receipts
were nearly 500, 600, 600. The cotton crop
amounted to 5,40O 900 bales, selling for $50
bale. Such taxation, says tho Raleigh
Ne'0s and Observer, is monstrous, and is the
reason that the people are not Prosperous
Tho success of the Democratic party will
change all this, and tho people will be freed
from the oppression that now burthens them.
n VOL known Washington lawyer, a Re-
publican, who is now in one of the congress
slonal districts of Massachusetts,, making
speeches for the Republican candidate for
Congress, says:
1.-The congressional delegates from Massa>
chusetts will probably remain as it now
stands. Republicans are not worried about
this at all, though they are alarmed q. the
prospects of the election of Butler SIS Goy>
ernor. My own impression is that, do whs,
We may, the widow Butler will DO tho next
Governor of Massachusetts. There does not
seem to be any way to beat him. All kinds
OF foreigners and sons of foreigners will vote
TOR him. The soldier element is almost solid
Tor him, and now we hear that many civil
service Republicans will go for Butler"
Cadet Whitaker has written letter to the
Charleston Is. CO Nc,Os aud Courier on the
duty and interest of the colored people of the
South. 10 his opinion tho condition of the
South can be improved by educating the
masses, By teaching the people to act without
respect to party lines, by maintaining homo
rule and by showing tho colorod man that his
best friends can be found in the South
Southern wealth, he says, Southern culture.
Southern votes and Southern men must and
will rule the South. Whitaker adds tina. bc
"owes Radicalism nothing" and that che
would lie to his owe conscience were he 70
vote, write or speak to bring a return of Rad
ical rule in the South"
