Evening.

Evening.
Last evening Harvey Minick, the Virginia
burglar, was taken to Virginia by Mr.. Tusing.
During the afternoon his attorneys, Messrs.
Woods and Frame, made very strong
fight to get the prisoner discharged, on the
grounds that the requisition signed by
Governor jackson had been signed in blank,
the Governor not being in the city, and that
the body Of the paper was filed in by the
Secretary without the Governor seeing it
and further that the papers from Virginia
we're not drawn up according to law. The
State of Virginia employed MessrS. White
and Arnett to protect her interests. The
arguments pro and con, were heard By
Judge Bovd, who decided in favor of the
State and the prisoner was sent as above

DEAR SIR: There is So evident good

views on specified sabjects. Perhaps upon
the subject Of the tariff lcaul give them in

We can never have free trade in this coun-

be. Our country is 81 large, our interests
so vast aud So much is 20 be done by the
general government, that for
series Of years We must ntss
hundreds Of millions OF dollars by taxation
of some sort, The only constitutional taxa
iion that know offs the dirrc, tax in pro-
portion to the number of inhabitants Of tho
States. The genius OF our people will not
permit Of that direct taxation aud therefore
indirect taxation must he resoryd TO. From
the beginning of the government TO this
time taxation BY duties on imported
articles has always been the resort
Of our government except iu times
Of war and for limited periods Other
methods oftaNaiion had been tried. because
the duties upon imports were insufficient,
therefore favor the raising Of sufficient
amount Of revenue for the economical ad-
ministntion of the government and no
more from duties on imports aud in laying
those duties to tax all

Tue Richmond Dispatch demands OF
Mr.. Tilden that he terminate at once the
state ofaagonizing suspense in which the
Democratic party is as to his Presidential
intentions. Ard it adds that, "if he
will persist in reticence unbecoming a
great man, the Democrats should give
him notice that his silence will be con-
strued as an abandonment on his part Of
all claim upon the Democratic party,
and turn their attention to other men,"
Mr.. Tilden has right to leave the nom
:nation of candidate for President to
the Democratic Convention. He has
said that he is not candidate, and that
is all that he could say now. 1t would
be indelicate for Mr.. Tilden to say he
yyould not take what has not been, and
may not be, rendered to him. The
Dispatch can scarcely turn the current
of public opinion which is demand
ing Mr.. Tilden's nomination. If moth
ing transpires between this time and
the meeting of the Democratic Conven-
ton, the Dispatch will have the privilege
of announcing his nomination upon the
arst ballot, and helping on that current
of fpublc feeling which it seems now is
destined to elect him President this Fall.

Hurds Greatest Effort.

WAsHINGroN, April 29.-Sunset Cox
sat behind the Speakers desk to-day and
presided over the committee of the
Whole on the tariff bill. The debate
took up the entire session. Hiscock, of
New York, spoke on Protection. Morse,
of Massachusetts, announced the start
ling fact that he was neither Free
trader or Protectonist, and sat down.
Then Frank Hurd, of Ohio, took the
floor for the greatest speech yet made on
the Free-trade side.
Hurd's speech created greater sensa-
ton than has been witnessed in the
House of Representatives in many years.
1t was magnificent effort, and, though
it dealt largely with matters of fact, his
rare eloouence, which decorated these
facts, kept the crowded galleries atten.
tive and encbained the whole House.
If Hurd had been q popular lecturer
and had been speaking to an enthusias'
tic audience on some patriotic theme he
could not have warmed up more to his
work or been :pplanded with more fire.
quency and more uproarlously. AT
tirncs this applause welled up like a
succession of tidal waves, splashing back
from the excited galleries. 1t seemed
impossible not TO catch the spirit of the
moment, for even the most radical Pro-
tectionist raised his hands mechanically
and applauded When liurd finished

crushed with excessive demonstrations of
admiration. lie had to fight his way
out behind the scenes and here the con-
fusion lasted for fully five minutes, the
House practically taking recess tor that
time. The scene was remarkable ore.
Such demonstration in compliment to
a sneaker is rarely witnessed on the floor
of The House and never within recollec.
ton where that speech was simply on an
economic question. 1t is the gossip OF
the city tonight:
There was nothing particularly new in
what Hurd said, but it was the manner
of saving it and It's clearness that brought
him the congratulation. OF his friends.
His argument was based on the PROPOSE
ton that subject to the needs OF the
government every man had the right to
sell where he could get the best price Tor
what he had produced and buy where be
could buy the most chcaply. This was
the plainest teachings Of justice, he said.
He charged the protective policy OF the
government with breaking down Ameri-
