Congressman Hill expressed himself
strongly at Huron. In "a conversation
with an interviewer he said:
II see that the democrats of Mime
haha county passed o resolution at the
late convention favorIng admission as a
whole. 1t doesn't affect me personally
how many democratic conventions do
this. l am not O resident of the terri
tory and only look at it from the stand
point as to what effect it will have upon
Dakota.
ga good many of those fellows who
favor admission as a whole are town lot
spectators, and if they should succeed
in passing q resolution TO admit the
territory as o whole it will perhaps de-
feat my bill, because it will be said | do
not represent the sentiments of my
party in the territory. That effects
nothing though and does not echo the
sentiment of the people. That is why L
want the Question submitted to the peo-
pie. My bill at present, l think, is the
strongest bill before the house. Spring
er's bill can't pass the senate, nor the
Harrison bill the house. My bill is a
compromise of the two. This question
of division or admission as q whole
should be submitted to the people. 1t
is not good politics to force an issue
down peoples mouths without giving
them a word in defense. The question
of the division of Dakota is one of great
importance to the west. The stronger
representation she has in the senate the
better chance she stands of maintaining
her rights against the financial strength
of the east"
Mr.. Hill understands the situation as
completely as do the residents of our
W territory and he speaks undisguis-
eddy upon the motives which induce a
faction of his own party to oppose
division. His open expressions upon
this subject should put to shame the
ring of town lot conspirators and rally
the patriotism OF Dakota democracy in
behalf OF the dearest wish OF the people
division. Unless we can have @ vote
upon the division proposition the
action of the democratic party at Aber-
deem may defeat the Hill bill, upon
which ell hopes are now centered. We
do not need to urge the time tried and
always loyal democrats of Dakota to do
their duty. They realize that they must
crush the rising power of corruption in
their own party and they will give
vitality to Congressman Hills desires IN
the coming copcleye at Aberdeen.

Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatc h. I

OSANCOCK, November ~, 1856.
There can hardly be any doubt that The
large ialling-onf in the Democratic majority
oi AccOmack In the late congressional elec-
ton has emhOllcned the Republicans TO
make big effort to capture the county Of
fees at the approaching spring election
preparatory to the big fight next fall, when
they hope TO elect one, il not both, Of the
delegates to the General Assembly from the
Eastern shore. Ii Is not. however, believed
that the Republicans will ever again be able
10 poll such big vote rs they east in this
county at the late election for Colonel
Browne, who received about 300 more votes
than Blame got in 1854. Colonel Browne
and his friends here have taken the result
very quietly. At orly one or two places has
there been any open demonstration. At
Mappsvillc, in the upper part OF the county,
the Republicans got up an impromptu cele-
bration. and treated some OF the Democratic
residents 10 rather q boi>ier0us selenade.
II was rather more than one peppery old
Democrat could stand, and, IN response to
a shower OF brlckblts on his house, the old
man went ont and filed the backs OF the
Tetreatng sercnadeTs with small-sized bird
shot.
The death is reported from Leemont, in
this county, Of Mr.. Levin ID. Lewis,
worthy citizen, III the siXty-eighth year OF
his age.

n trespasser TO do this. And wish 10 call
your attention to the fact that all the judges
agreed In this proposition. The four die
an ming ones dissented on the ground only
that the action for damages against the
officer was IN substance an action against
the State, and that that could not be
brought since the eleventh. amendment.
Now, Il there any possible coDtllct be-
tween these two decisionss DO they not
run on perfectly parallel hines!
And II You will read the case OF Chafia
Us. Tav,or. IO6 u. s. r., 5GI, you will see
that The Supreme Court decided in that
case that the coupon offered need not be
one that bos been verified before the ten
der. but that the States coupons stand on
the same footing as gold or silver com. II
the gold coin rendered be. In point Of fact,
cold coin OF the United States. the tender
paws the tax: but IL It be really counterfeit
coin, the tender does not pay the tax. so,
II The coupon rendered be, in point OF fact,
the States coupon, the tender Of 1t pays
the tax; brs n II be in point 81 fact the
coupon II some one else, II does not pay
The tax.
After the tender Of coupon, II the
Treasurer lcyics he does so at his own
teril. lie takes the risk OF proving on the
trial OF an action for damages that the cOu-
pon offered was spurious. and II he fail. to
prove this he must pay all the damages
sustained.
And now, Mr.. Editor, IsWant 10 call
your attention TO IN act which the Legisla-
Iurc passed at it, last session. which. In INV
judgment, was very unfortunate for the in
torcsts Of the State. II passed an act re-
curing all persons seeking to verify cou-
pens TO produce the bonds from which
they came, and fortidding the proof OF the
genuipeDess OF the coupons by expert tes-
tImony. This makes it practically impossi-
bic for persons wishing to use coupons in
payment Of their taxes to do so under the
provisions Of "Coupon-kiler No. l." and
compels them to stand on their tenders
and sue the officers for damages II thew
levy, and hence the confusion now existing
in the States affairs.

II seldom happens that the results OF a
fIe are better than at fret expected. TX -
true, however, az regards The burning OF
the Anatomical Hail at the University sun
day morning. All OF the building but tbe
lower story was totally consumed. rms
lower story contained the lecture.room oc-
c,,ried by DR.. Cabell and DIR. Dahney, and
n contents were preserved practically un'
injured. The UPPER story was occupied by
Or. Towles,' Professor OF Anatomy. Tue
anatomical drawings were lost. While
they were probably The finest In the
world, they were valuable rather as
works OF art. DIR. Towles teaches NJ
most entirely from the human subject.
All the other drawings were saved, a. were
all The French anatomical models. No
injury whatever resulted to the physical
and surgical Instruments, apparatus, and
appliances, nor TO the obstetrcal appar ltus.
All Of the morbid specimens belonging 10
the Departments OF Surgery and Practice
are preserved No interruption 10 the
work OF the medical department has re-
suited: not a lecture has been omitted.

reached the building, which they did
promptly, although they had to pull the
two reels and the hook.and-ladder truck

The Moral Question.
ne DonyIlle Reoister says:


ave are not disposed TO discuss the
question from a moral standpoint. The
hemocratlc party .acquiesced' in the Rid
dloberger settlement, and we oil agreed to
abide by the decision OF The part Conyen'
ton; but II we find at last that we have
embarked in sinking ship, and that 1t must
be abandoned, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO :
VIII The Dispatch proinde lifeboaI!"
The duty Of providing a lifeboat de-
wolves upon the Governor and the Legislo-
ture. There are several methods yet un'
tried Of bringing the foreign bondnolders
TO terms. No court has ever decided that
anybody must pay taxes IN coupons. Who
ever does so does so Of his own volition.
II is not creditabie to the people OF Vir-
gInia that even comparatively small num-
Der OF them should be willing top,y their
taxes in coupons and throw the whole
burthen OF keeping up the State govern
ment upon their more patriotic neighbors.
The Legislature ought TO make the I'M
bald taxes Of all who force coupons into
the Treasury lien upon theirreal estate, to
be removed oriy by paying In money the
amount thus unlawiuly paid in in coupons.

AIesfcr from Mr.. ROYAL.

10 the Edtt0r OF me DtSpdtch:
II is very evident to my mind from read
ing your editorial OF the DIST that you do
not understand the decisions that the SUI
preme Court have made concerning the State
debt a. understand them. and ask leave
10 state my understanding OF them that i'm.
partial persons may judge between us which
i. right.
II must be evident to every mind that
there is wide difference between the case
OF n debtor compelling his creditor % re-
ceive from him what he owes and that Of
the same debtor, after he has offered to pay
his debt and that offer has been refused, ill.,
sisung that all the responsibilities for that
refusal shall fall upon the creditor and not
OF him.
Now, the first decision OF Tie Supreme
Court (ARt0ni Is. GreeahO,O deals with
the first Of these cases; the second (P0in-
dcyter as. GrCcnhOtO deals with the Sc.
cOnd Of them.
In Anioni as. GreeHaot0 the taxpayer
was seeking to compel tho states Treasurer
10 receive his coupons from him in payment
Of his taxes. The supreme curt said. in
substance, "li IS no part OF your duty, Mr..
Taxpayer, 90 pay your taxes: Your duty
is fulfilled when You Offer 20 pay them, and
II the state chooses 10 lie Oat 0i her rcvc-
nue. who can object? Ii. thcu, YOU take
upon yourself the superer0ga,Ory task Of
compelling her officer to receive them, IT Is
surely no hardship upon YOU that YOU
should be compelled 40 do il according TO
The way that she prescribes, rather than ac-
cordins 10 the way thai you choose 10 pre-
scribe"
Now, tins, | submit, is the ratio dece-
dcHdj OF AatOai rs. GTctatO'o. and it IN.
wolves logical chain which any man Who
makes the attempt will End 1t very difficult
to break.
But IL Is obvious that il also suggests b
the taxpayer another method that he may
resort TO which Will secure him his rights
Just as efectualy as II be were allowed TO
have his own way with the writ OF man
damus.
II suggests that when he offers one Of the
States cOupOns-one that Is, in point OF
TACT, the States coupon (n0t the coupon Of
someone else)-he has performed his whole
duty; he has paid his tax, and ii win be
simply trespass in any one TO attempt 10
compel him to pay his tax with anything
save and except that identical coupon, II he
chooses to insist upon his right to pay with
that coupon.
jumped at the suggestion, and framed
the second ease (Ioinderter Us. Greeahou)

Edmnnds and Washington.

Mr. EpNuNps would better have taken
tie advice so often given Mr.. BLAINE
viz, "Don't WRITE" The Boston AdCer-
hser has just published letter from the
glacial senator from Vermont, in which the
Senator defines his attitude towards Mr.
BLAINE IN 1884. Mr.. EDMUNDS says that
be refused 20 take the stump for the
Plumed knight because he could not "tell
untrulhs or be hypocriie," even 10 save
the grand old party. SO far 90 good. That
declaration was very nice and very yirtu-
Gus ia tie Vermont senator. no more Affect
iug r,terance has cmanated from apublic
man since the memorable words spoken in
the scene in which GEoRGE WASHINGTON,
his paternal ancestor, q Ratchet, and shin
gle played parts. Indeed Senator Ed
nusDs goes bow-shot beyond GEORGE In
advertising bis virtue. IL Is ga matter OF
history" that GEORGE said he could not tell
a lie, but there Is no record 20 the effect
that he pressed the credulity OF the old
gentleman and the public further by de.
eiarlng also that be couldn't be byoerite
We do not believe thai GEoRGE could have
been a Lypocrisc, but his consciousness OF
innste righteousness did not blind
him to the fact that in his day there
was limit TO human belief when a
boy and . cherry tree were Involved, II
Senator EDSrSDs had stopped with his de-
clsralion above referred 70 he might have
ranked as a greater than GEORGE WASH
JSaroS, although there might have been
faint suspicion that he saw u presidential
cherry In the dim distance. But, alas he
did not. Continuing, his letter says, in
substance, that he "was convinced. how
ever, that IL was better for the Republican
candidate, although a corrupt man, to be
elected, than for the Government TO pass
into the hands OF the Democratic party"
We do not say that Mr. EDsUSDs could
tell an untruih, and VIC do not say that be
could be bypocrite; but we think that II
will take great Geal Of statcsmanship
to reconcile this last quoted statement
with the idea that the Vermont senator Is
the embodiment OF political virtue and pa
triotkm.
