Delinquent Lands.
New KENT, January 81, 1886

NEW hENT, January Il, 1851.
To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
have seen many COMMUNICATIONS in
your paper in relation to the delinquent
land bill, and, as | have not seen any
from this county, will say few words
for the landowners of this section.
The bill, if carried into effect, will do
great injustice to the majority Of our
citizens. Since the war nearly all Of
our real estate has changed hands,
either by private sale or by decree Of
court, and now the purchasers of these
lands, who have regularly paid the
taxes since the date Of their purchase,
are called upon to pay taxes that ac-
crued before that date-some for
one up to six years, which taxes they
were in total ignorance of up to the
present time-these taxes in many
cases, based upon ante-belltm valua-
ton, which, withinterest added, amount
to four or five times the present value
or cost at day Of sale. This class Of
landowners will suffer unjustly, for
there is no one for them to appeal to for
relief except to their representatives.
Where the owner Of land, through
his own negligence, has let taxes re-
main unpaid, we think the State should
claim and make the taxes.
We would ask our representatives to
frame some bill for our relief. This
demand falls heavily upon US at this
time, when produce is so low that the
best Of us cannot make more than
support. We would also ask them to
so change the law that each treasurer
be required to sell all delinquent lands
in his county the last year of his term,
so if there should be any mistakes, as
are now found on the list, he could cor
rect them before the day Of sale. As
it now stands, the treasurer says he is
not responsible for the acts Of his pre-
decessOr.
According to present law the trea-
surers can make their delinquent Lists
and settle with the Auditor according
thereto, while the owner Of land knows
nothing Of such returns being made
until years after, when that treasurer
may be dead or gone to the north pole.
Some relief should be given the land
owners, and some bill should be passed
to prevent recurrence of such a state
Of affairs. Yours, CLoDHoPPER.

Correspondence ofthe Richmond Dispatch
PETERSBURG, VA, Jan. 90. '86.
In the Hastings Court last evening
Dayy Williams (colored), from Rich
mond, was convicted Of grand larceny
and was sentenced to two and a half
years. Imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary. He is at present serving out a
sentence in the jail for another larceny.
The grand jury ignored the bill
against the Petersburg Club, charged
with violation Of the State law in SELL
ing liquor without license. The case
Of the Club will, however, come before
the court on an appeal from the deci-
sion OF the mayor, imposing fine for
violating the city ordinance. Since
this matter has arisen the Club has
stopped the use Of liquor altogether in
Its rooms.
The grand jury also ignored the bills
against James Jones and Plummer Mac
lin lcoloredl who were arrested during
the heated political campaign Of last
November, charged with attempting to
deposit more than one ballot in the
box.

duties are complicated and quite differ

They are professional in their charac-
ter. No novice can discharge them
properly, and no weak or poorly
furnished man can discharge them at
ALL"
These opinions were expressed when
the work Of the Office was less than at
present and the pay higher. How
much more applicable are they now !.
UNIFORMED people have little idea Of
the amount Of work attached to this
office. Whilst partial idea Of it may
be had from the annual reports, nothing
like the full amount appears there.
The numerous appeals and neighbour
hood dissepsions, the frequent and ex-
tensive examinations Of teachers the
special, the monthly, and the annual
reports Of great length and minutiG /;
the long journeys over snow-clad noun
tains and muddy roads to visit and in
spect the schools. and the mental
anxiety and worry Of the conscientious
superintendent over the trust commit
ted to him. are things unknown or UNI
thought Of by the many. 1t should be
remembered, also, that superintend-
ent's expenses, which he must pay out
of his salary, are often more per day
than his pay.
The fact that there often many appli-
cants for this Office proves nothing. So
are there many applicants for nearly all
other positions and if the salaries Of
superintendent were reduced to 800
per annum there would still be appli-
cantS, and the services Of the men who
would then have the office would be
dear even at that price.
The State, like individuals, usually
gets about what she pays for and no
more. The salaries in the counties are
so low now that men Of iirst-clasS abll-
ity will not accept the position except
as an addition or supplement to some
other calling or profession.
Reduce them still lower, and men Of
education and capacity will not have
them at all, and the result will be injury
to the schools and to the children Of
the Commonwealth from incompetent
supervision. believe with DR.. Ruilner
that instead Of decrease an increase Of
the pay of these officers would be an
economy by securing the whole time
and attention of competent men.

LONDON TOBACCO MARKET

John X. Giiliat n Co.'s Circular.
LoNuON, 4 CROSBY SQUARE, E. c., !
January l, 1886. J
To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
The record of our past tobacco year
presents few features of interest. In
the early part there was some demand
for Virginia bright leaf, and good uni
form parcels were taken by the leading
buyers at the full current rates. Viz
ginia dark strips were held for prices
which put them out of the market.
There was no general demand, and as
the months went on the dragging retail
character Of all business was very try
ing to holders.
OF Burley leaf the sale was hindered
by offerings from Bremen, and this
class became entirely neglected. For
Western strips the resistance of the
trade to all high-priced tobaccos threw
the small demand entirely on medium
priced strips Of spinning character. In
April the duty question, and perhaps to
some extent political uncertainties, still
further interfered with business.
0wensboro tobacco proved neither light
enough for fine cutting, nor heavy
enough for spinning. In June the
favorable accounts of the new crop did
not help the market, and the demand
for brights altogether ceased.
We continued our account Of dull,
monotonous trade with some little
business in medium Western strips,
but no demand for good cutting parcels.
The competition among the manufac-
turers threw them more and more upon
cheap tobacco. In July We were trou-
bled with the not very satisfactory
result of the early shipments Of Bur-
ley tobacco, and with fears as to the
