the State taxes from 40 to 30 cents.
Therefore, Is 1t not only had the
power, but was required BY the Con-
stitution to levy tax for the benefit Of
the schools, the oct Of 1884 must be
constitutional.
The News will see that the Legislature
levied tax Of 30 cents for the support
Of the government and tax OF 10 cents
for the support Of the public free schools.
To pass law forbidding the receipt OF
coupons for the former tax would DO
to pass q law imparing the obligation OF
the contract made BY the funding act Of
1871; but to pass Law forbiddiug the
latter tax to be paid in coupons was to
do exactly what the State Constitution
fully authorized the Legislature to do
in provision older than the funding
act Of 1871, and therefore a provision
which the Legislature had no power to
eet aside.

A New Island Found.


The American steamer Janet Nicoll
reports that on her late voyage from
Apia, in Samoa, to San Francisco, she
was surprised at finding an island where
one had not been previously seen, quite
near the ordinary track Of steamers.
The Janet Nicoll was able to come
within q mile and a half, and found
over 100 fathoms, but reefs prevented
nearer approach. The island was
about $50 feet high, and there was
plsinly crater at the top; but the re-
port does not say whether it was active
or not. As we'll as could be ascertain
ed, the position of the island is 20 de-
grees 2S/ south latitude and It's de-
grees 2l> west longitude. 1t lies with
in the Tonga group, but the islanders
Of that group do not seem to have felt
esny indications of submarine erup-
linn

Delinquent Lands.

If we may judge from the number Of
letters that reach us on the subject, and
their contents, the most important
question now before the Legislature is
as to what is the proper disposition to
be made Of the lands which have been
returned delinquent during the last
twenty years. Day after day, and
from every section of Virginia, these
letters come to us. One received yes
terday tells as that quietly the Republi-
cans are watching their chances, and
should our Democratic Legislature fail
to relieve the people in this matter of
outrageous back-taxes, many of the
delegates will next year be left at home.
"You can form no idea," says the let
ter, "unless you could 60 out into the
rural districts, Of the trouble that is
coming if this thing is not wiped out"
There will be howl when any bill
passes requiring the people to answer
for the States negligence"

Killed on the Raii-Maii-Blg Lost.
Correspondence ofthe Richmond Dispatch.I
MARION, VA, January 25, 1886.
Mr.. Beverly Freeman was instantly
killed at Greeyer's switch, this county,
this morning, by the mail-train going
east. He was standing near the plat
form, and in attempting to cross the
railroad was struck by the engine,
which was going at high rate of speed.
He was hurled great distance against
a pile Of lumber. Freeman was an old
man and leaves large family.
The mail-carrier who left Pulaski
City for Johannesburg, Bland county.
last Thursday was in company with a
man from Bland county who was very
drunk. After leaving Pulaski City the
carrier got drunk and lost the mailbag,
which has not been recovered. The
men got lost in the mountains, having
wandered from the road. The carrier
reported the loss to the postmaster at
Pulaski next day.
More snow, and the mountain roads
almost impossible. Business is very

Turn 1t On Fully.

The Boston Herald, independent
Republican, while denying that the
Senate has any power under the Consti-
tuition or the laws to require the Presi-
dent to give his reasons for making
removals or suspensions, says
Nevertheless, we see no objectionto
the President stating, in general way
and as voluntary act, that he has sus'
pended q number of officers, and intends
to remove q good many others, in pur-
suance Of his right to have important
executive subordinates who are in sym
pathy with the principles and policy OF
his party, and also for the purpose of
correcting the evil and wrong OF
wholly partisan public service, which
the Republicans crested and for twenty
years maintained. 1t is this con-
trolling fact of civil service, filled
in every nook and Granny with Re-
publican partisans, appointed for politi-
cal reasons, which the senator's and
organs of that party persistently
ignore. They have the adamantine
cheek to talk as though the removal Of
fourth or o fifth Of these partisan
agents, and the filling Of their places
with decent public servants Of another
party, were a disturbance ofthe basis
Of reform, or violation Of the Presi-
dents pledges. 1t is nothing of the
sort. 1t is a perfectly legitimate and
highly necessary operation, and we wish
the President would say So"
The Herald states the situation in
nutshell, both as to the Presidents
rights and the impudence Of the Senate.
However, should the President decide
to furnish the Senate, Sin general
way and as a voluntary act," with his
reasons for removals and suspensions,
it is to be hoped that he will also fur
nish them to the public--that is, let
there be an end to Start Chamber pro-
ceedings. The Presidents reasons can
not fail to throw a flood of light upon Re-
publican methods, and rebound to the
benefit of the Democratic party. We
know of nothing better calculated to
strengthen the Democracy with the
true. men Of the country than COM
plete expose of the workings Of the
partisan public service which "the
Republicans created and for twenty
years maintained" in the South espe-
cially. We doubt not that such an
expose would excite in the honest
masses a wonder that a clean sweep
has not been made. The Democracy
can we'll afford to have the light turned
on, provided it is turned on fully.

NORFOLK AND PORTSMOUTH.

seamsn DesertiDR from the Dolphin An Ac-

Movement.
Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.l
NORFOLK, January %, 1886.
Twenty-seven seamen have deserted
from the crew OF the United States
steamer Dolphin since her arrival at the
navy.yard. The men complain that the
ship is overcrowded, and their accom-
modati0Ds are so uncomfortable that
they will not put up with such discom-
fort during the proposed cruise to the
West Indies. Captain Meade is still in
Washington, but on his return the ship
will put to sea, with clear weather, for
New York. The Board Of Inspectors
appointed by the Secretary will be on
board from here to New York.
An accidental fire at Coinjack, on
the Albemarle and Chesapeake canal,
on Sunday night totally destroyed the
storehouse and stock Of J. Ii. Dozier.
Loss, $4,000; partially insured.
The schooner Lamartine, recently
sunk in the Chickaho niny river, has
been raised and towed into port by the
wreckers.
Judge G. W. Murdaugh, Of the Court
Of Hastings, Portsmouth, continues
quite i'll.
Lengthy petitions continue to be pre-
scented to the County Court from all
sections Of Norfolk county praying the
court not to grant liquor licenses in the
several localities. There seems to be
strong movement against the liquor
traffic in the county, and wherever
temperance meetings are held they are
we'll attended by the best people.
At noon to-day the signal officer at
Cape Henry saw the wrecking steamer
Victoria Peed take in tow the unknown
stranded schooner reported yesterday
and start in the direction Of the capes.
The weather was too thick to see the
schooper's name.
Strong winds, heavy seas, high tides,
and thick weather are reported to-day
