Auditor SEarye's Letter.
ALEXANDRIA, Va, Oct.


To the auditor Of Public .4ccountS:
DEAR COLONEL have received the mark
ed copy Ct the Dispatch you sent me con-
tanning your letter, which the editor OF that
paper considers "a Convincing Reply TO
Mr.. Cooper"
The treasurer of this city receives coupons
in payment of taxes; and no doubt you
heard was in part responsible for it. | am
sorry, for your sake, you wrote this remark
able letter. 1t was, in my opinion, and in
your friends opinions, great mistake.
l cdnn0tbelleve it is your opinion THE At
torney. Generals and Mr. fuckers opinions
to the contrary that the State is entitled to
the coupons which were rendered in pay
ment of taxes, or $1,000 in money, the
amount Of the taxes, in view of the state
ment you make in your letter, that the
$1,000, the proceeds of the sale of the tax
payers property levied on, will be used to
settle the judgments against treasurers
For this s. 900 the tax bills were receipted
and delivered to the taxpayers, and now
you say in your letter the State will hold or
to it or use it to pay these judgments, and
then she will claim the coupons also. Nv
these coupons when she pays for them ST.
QUO in money to the holders thereof, or when
she takes them in payment of taxes.
What law is there for the State or the H.
demnity Board to pay judgments against
A. B. and C., treasurers?
You know, or you ought to know, that the
bill creating the Indemnity Board and au
thorizng it, like all the bills that declare
coupons shall not be received for taxes is
unconstitutional. Suppose Tom Jones sues
SamTomfor trespass upon mis- person orupon
his property and RECEIVERS a judgment forS5OO
would not the State or the Indemnity Board
have as much right, legal right I mean, to
pay this judgment as to pay the Judgment
against A. B. c.. treasurers.
For the shame and disgrace upon the
Commonwealth by the state of her indebt
edness, am sorry to have to say you are
in part responsible.
According to your letter the revenue col
lected for last year was 81, 773, 437 50; and
am informed that, after paying all the ex-
penses Of the government, there will remain
surplus of 81 ,073, 4S732, and this amount
the State declines 10 use to discharge her
indebtedness; and you declare it good poll
cy for her to waste or consume tWo-thirds of
this amount in vain attempt to prevent
paying her debts
1t not being, and, in my opinion, it never
has been, question Of ability, there can be
no excuse for her action.
1t is now settled law that coupons are re.
ceivable for taxes, and the sooner the peo.
pie of Virginia recognize the inevitable and
instruct her agents to take them the better
it will be for them.
I, for one, wish that "a Virginia iuryn
would inlict upon the members of the In
demnity Board vindictive damages for the
wilful violation OF known law.
Yours truly, JOHN NJ. JOHNSON.

The Trip to Richmond.

The President went TO Richmond at eight
o'clock this morning to visit the State fair.
Ho was accompanied only by Secretary OF
State Bayard, Secretary of War Endicott,
poslmaster-General Villas and Private Sec
rotary Lamont, Mrs. Cleveland and the
other ladies having decided not to make the
Journey. The party reached Richmond at
twelve o'clock and were driven directly to
the fair grounds, where tho President was
formally welcomed by Gov. Fitzhugh Lee
A general reception to the public followed
the President having advised tho COMMITTEES
that he wished to adhere to his original re-
quest that any desire on the part of the peo-
pie to be presented to him should be graft
fed without restriction. The party will
leave Richmond by special train at five
o'clock this evening and reach Washington
at eight.
A dispatch from the President stating that
Mrs. Cleveland and the ladies would be IN.
able to accompany the President on his trim.
and that the latter would have to forego the
pleasure of attending the reception at Gov.
Lees house was sent yesterday evening.
and, as consequence, there will be no re.
ception at the executive mansion.
This action CT the President created surorisa
IN view of the fact that only yesterday morning il
was announced that Mrs. Cleveland and other
ladies would certainly be in the Presidential mar.
ty. Gov. Lee had arranged for reception at bis
house, and had issued invitations to prominent
citizens to meet them
Richmond society was greatly disappointed at
the announcement OF the change in the pro-
gramme. Prominent society leaders intended
urging Mr.. Cleveland to allow his wife to remain
a week or more, and Mrs. Gov. Leo was to have
used her influence in the effort Of obtaining tho
Presldents consent to such an arrangement.
Mrs: Lee, Miss Winnie Davis, daughter of
Hon Jefferson Davis, and the widow of ex-Presi.
Gent Tyler were among the !aies who would
have received Mrs Cleveland if she hal gone to
Richmond.
