THE ISSUES.
a Couple Of CubernatoriaI
Opinions.

New YORK, April 1.-THE World
of Saturday will publish replies from
Gov. Hoadlcy, Of Ohio, and Gov.
Jackson, of West Virginia, to inquiries
concerning the issues for the next Pres
idential campaign. Governor Hoa'lley
says:
"The issues upon which the Presi.
dental campaign ought to be conducted
are the necessity Of reform of abuses en-
gendered by long continued Republican
misgovernment for economy in public
expenditures, and for the restoration OF
the constitution of the United States to
its rightful supremacy. Absolute free
trade is at present an impossibility.
Any tariff necessarily affords incidental
protection to domestic manufactures OF
the articles it embraces, but protection
should he incidental rather than the OBJ
ject A tariff levied only for public
uses means tariff exclusively on arti-
Giles which are not produced in the Uni
ted States, such as tea and coffee.
| favor tariff for revenue, avoiding
monopolies, but CAREFUL discriminating
so as To encourage labor, and as far as
possible so constructed in intelligent de-
tails as TO give relief to oppressed com
merce and restore the American flag t.
the seas, but not to shock or rudely dis
turb invested capital This is the Ohio
platform on which we carried Ohio last
fall, and, with Tilden or Payne as the
candidate we can carry it again this
year."
Governor Jackson's views: 81 an
not in favor Of making the tariff the is
sue in Il Presidential campaign. | be
licve the issue should be reform in the
Government, restoration Of the Rcpub
lie, to be brought about by m absolut,
change at Washington. | believe thcr,
should be modification Of the existing
tariff, but am opposed to the passage o
the Morrison bill by the House. IN
in favor of the Ohio pla;form--a tar.
for revenue, win incidental protection
rs the wisesl policy to unite the ncmoc
racy for national victory. ] believ
that large majority of Democrats o
this State are in accord with the abov
views"

A VOICE.

While the silent night is keeping
Some mournful tune at hand,
Some ones voice is sweeping
The flowers Of every strand.
With the night-wind's solemn sigh
Resounds the echo deep and clear
Into the listening ear OF him
Who to his grave is drawing near.
But, onward-down with feeble step
lie in heavy years doth go,
Looking deep in Deaths pale face
Which stains the gruve-his woe.
Bearing on, in child-likc way,
lie needs not to the call,
But locks himself S;cadiast in sin
Which bears unto his fall.
Where, low into the earthly-dcep
lie mouders beneath the tomb,
While his soul forever rcigns
Within the land OF final doom.

We deeply sympathize with the read
crs of the Home Journal this week
Slater fills two and Il half columns with
m editorial on the tariff We thought
Slater too old an editor FOR any such
foolishness as that. Mind you, we are
not taking issue with his position, what
ever that may be. And Dulln says he
had to omit several local items to make
room for it. Good gracious, Is Slater
going daft p [Tullahoma Guardian,
18th inst.
We arc not yet prepared to believe
we are going or are gone insane, But
if we are insane, our insanity brings
forth more sense than sanity ever did.
Among letters we have received within
the last few days is one from n very i'll

he says: "Your article in the last

nal Taxation is pronounced to be the
best that has appeared in any newspaper

YOU. 1t is no less flattering to know
that Mr.. Tilden's letter, to the lroquols

expressed, was published in Nashville or
the same day that your paper was pub

III Inc lHIe Itaulcal convention IN |
Winchester white men only were
chosen as delegates to the State Con.
ventlon. But among the alternates was
David Bone, a negro, who made a little
speech, in which he said "that his peo-
pie were all Republicans, and were ex.
pected to vote likewise. That some say
they are not, but that wasn't 50, and
there was no use of denying it. That
they felt somewha. chopped Off by this
convention, as they certainly expected
at least one representative among the
delegates going to the State Convention
from this county" Capt. Mather then
arose and withdrew from the delegation,
and upon motion Mr.. Bone was elected
in his stead.
Now, we agree with David Bone that
his people are all Republicans-that is,
Radicals. And we, for one, are sick of
the effort of the Democratic party to
obtain negro votes, or Of its making e.
forts to enlighten them. If there is
negro Democrat in this county of Frank
lin we will pay ten cents to find out his
name. They are dependent upon Dem
ocrats for work, but whena National or
State election comes they invariably
vote solidly for the Radical nominee.
But it does us good to be able to tell
them that in voting for the Republican
candidate for Governor-Judge Frank
T. Reid-:hey will vote for a clever
gentleman, one who went to the front
and fought in the Confederate army IN
order to free the negro (O if you please.
You negroes will vote for him as you
did for Brownlow-for Brownlow who
went all the way to Philadelphia to dis
cuss with DR.. Prync and advocate the
passage of law forbidding any one
from freeing his slaves by will at death.
But Brownlow turned Radical after
wards, just as Frank I. Reid has done,
and the negroes have no more sense
than to be hoodwinked by this brave
cx.Coniederate Radical. We hope the
Democrats will not pander to the negro
vote. We can do without their ballots
and feel IN re respectable. But it will
be funny to see David Bone and his col
or putting in votes for an ex-Confed-
crate soldier who once said that this was
white mans country and white men
must and should control it. 1t is some
thing laughable to see negroes voting
for ex-Confederates whose adoption of
Radical faith very naturally leads us to
believe they are hypocrites. And when
! they sce-Yhen even the negroes sec
the present Governor opposed TO Reid
in the coming canvass they will surely
feel ashamed to vote against Gov. VIM.
b. Batc-a man who would do more for
them than all the Radicals that ever
lived Bate is covered with wounds re-
ceived in defending what he thought
was Constitutional liberty, but when hi
laid by his sword his heart went on
like an angel of mercy. and there is NJ
man living who will receive our vot
more cheerlully than he when the TIM
comes.

In the present state of society jails are
necessary institutions, and 1t is therefore
the duty of the various counties In which
they are situated, to see that they are kept
In condition to fulfil the purposes for
which they are designed. One of these pur-
poses, and the chief one, is to keep securely
the persons who are placed in them. 1t ap-
pears from the report of the inspectors that,
with two exceptions, the jails In this state
are in satisfactory condition. The excep-
tions are the jill In Wiscasse. and the jail
in Ellsworth, and the latter is in very much
worse condition than the former. Judging
from the number of escapes from the Els
worth Jail which have occurred during the
past year, man shut up in hennery with
high picket fence surrounding it would
be about as likely to be found when wanted
az man confined In this institution. In
fact the hennery would probably detain him
the longer Of the two. A man not anxious
to obtain his liberty might remain in hem
merry that was q fairy clean and heAlthful
place; but no man, however careless of his
liberty, could remain in such filthy place
as the Ellsworth Jail appears to be unless he
were bent on slow suicide. The county of
Hancock has been disCraced by this jail for
many years. It is to be hoped that this
year it will tear 1t down and build a new
one

Some of the Washington correspondents
have great deal to say about what Post
master Goddard proposes to in the way of
revenging himself upon Mr. Reed for not
recommending his reappointment. We sus-
pect these correspondents have been misled.
Postmaster Goddard does not proclaim his
purposes from the housetop, and it may be
doubted that he proposes to do ANYTHING
unseemly. In order to justify him, even in
the court of political vindic,iveness, for
attempting to injure Mr.. Reed it would be
necessary TO show that Mr.. Reed could have
secured a different decision, on the CUES
tions of administration which came before
the Postmaster General, If he had done SO
unwise thing as to attempt it. The Post
master is clever man, quite too clever, we
think, to make spectacle of himself by
whining unduly because his long telm of Of
fee holding, by favor of the Republican par
", has suffered an interruption. He is not
dependent on Office for support, and he is
abundantIy capable, as has been shown, for
other occupations. If there was no stronger
motive Of good sense restraining him from
such q course; he would be restrained BY the
consideration that such course would
greatly embarrass many of his staunch
friends who could not excuse such folly.
We conclude that Judge Goddard has been
misunderstood aud misrepresented in this
matter.

The New York Sun points out what few,
outside OF those who have had their atten-
ton called to the matter, are aware Of,
that Maine builds aud owns more ves-
sels employed in the carrying trade than all
the other States put together. BY the last
report it appears that z53 of the ships sill
Ing under the American flag were built in
Maine, while only 1l9 were pnilt In other
States. OF these lis were butt in Bath.
The next plaers in importance in construc-
ton are Thomaston. Belfast, Damariscotta
and Kennehunk. There are how $50 Ameri-
ean-built ships Oh the ocean. of which 1853
are under foreign figs. They were built as
follows: Maine 319; Massachusetts 144;
New York %; New Hampshire Is; Con-
nectieut II; all other States IT, The 1853
American built ships which have passed un-
der the control Of foreign owners are dis
tributed among the different nationalities
as follows: Germany 80; Norway aud Swe-
den IS; Great Britain %; Holland a; Aus
trIa s; other nations II.

The New York Stale Assessors in their
annual report recommend some radical
changes In the present system of taxation.
A State tax on legacles and inheritances is
suggested and an Income tax on all incom-s
exceeding $4,000 year. From 1856 to
1882 personal property in that State appar-
emily decreased ST., 800, 600 while real esi ate
increased In valuation s1,400, Oo0, 900. The
explanation of this is, Of course, that the
personal property was concealed from the
assessors while the real estate could not be.
In consequence the latter kind of property
has to bear more than its just share of taxa
lion. The evil here pointed out is not con-
fined TO New York, but is present in all the
States where the system of valuation aud
taxation is similar to that of New York. The
same evil exists in Maine and was touched
upon by Gov. RJbie in his recent address to
the State Grange.
