Make the Issue.

Our contemporary the Alexandra
Gazette propounds an interrogatory.
We quote:
"Tbe city treasurer OF Petersburg,
after assurance Of full protection by
,he State Board of Indemnity at Rich
mond, has levied upon the property OF
Taxpayer in his city for taxes though
n tender Of coupons in payment oil
those taxes had been made. And this
in the face Of all the previous decisions
in similar cases, aud with the know
ledge of the necessarily inevitable re-
suit of such a levy. When will the
taxpayers Of the State, who have to
pay The damages in all such cases, de-
mand that such expensive folly be
stopptd?"
The object of the Board of lndemni-
" is TO save money to the State. That
Board may he mistaken; but nobody
can doubt that their purpose is to keep
the Treasury Of Virginia from being
crowded with coupons, and the Com
monwealth from being baDkrupted.
And nobody can doubt that they firm
" believe thev are doing this very thing.
The Board must continue to pursue
that policy, or they must, through the
Auditor, order coupons to be received
from every body who offers them. To
do this latter would be to shut up the
courts of justice, the State institutions
Of all sorts, aud to nscessitate an extra
session OF the General Assembly. Even
now we live in constant apprehension
that this body may have soon to be
convened in extra session in order to
save the Commonwealth from ruin.
when it meets it will have to devise a
new law under the operation Of which
the wheels Of government may be again
set in motion, and Judge HUGHEs's
cutworms kept out Of the Treasury.
The General Assembly would not
dare to propose new settlement. The
people buried the McCULLoCH 3, 4,
and 5 per cent. bill under two-thirds
majority in the Legislature of 1879.
The people have not changed their
minds.
Now, then, let us ask the Gazette
what is to be done? There are thirty
millions of the State debt--at least
that much if we include the matured
coupons in the calculation. The rate
of interest on all but twelve millions
or less OF the outstanding bonds is 6
per cent. The interest on all the
bonds, therefore, as the debt now
stands, amounts to let us say fourteen
hundred thousand dollars year. How
is that immense sum to be paid? 1t is
not for us to answer, but for those
persons to answer who censure the
Board Of Indemnity for offering to pay
out a hundred or even five hundred
thousand dollars annually for year or
two in order to save to the State the
payment of fourteen hundred thousand
dollars a year until the bonds mature,
and then thirty millions of principal.

In your paper Of the 18th instant

"A Member to Colonel Rutlin," whose
idiosyncrasy is so palpable that it re-
quires not the trenchant pen of the
Second Auditor to subsoil him, for the
reason that he is all surface so We will
leave the riddles " in his article to be
solved by the aforesaid Second Auditor,
who will doubtless show the gentleman
that, while a coupon cannot be peeled,
he can be peeled. | do not know who
"A Member sis, but do know when
he goes out of his way to cast slurs
upon temperance people by calling
local option a potato-bug upon the
revenue" We will venture the pre-
diction that " A Member would ad-
yocate that "potato-bug" or anything
else if he could advance his interests
thereby, for it is very perceptible from
his writings that he is of that class OF
men who are " streskiDg the ground
with sinuous trace" which, under the
purifying administration of Grover
Cleveland, will be consigned to "innocu-
Gus desuetude "a sinking taad for all
their hopes, dreams, and aspirations.
And. by way Of peroration, let me ask
who the "Old Guard" is? Can it be

The Lee Statue.

The Baltimore Herald Of yesterday
saws that the Richmond papers care
squabbling over whether Sculptor VAL.
ENTIxE should or should not be in
trusted with the design and erection OF
the LEE monument" Also, that 1t is
generally conceded by competent judges
that there is room for considerable i'm
movement on-the mausoleum figure at
Lexington"
As to the Herald's first statement, it
could hardly have gone wider of the
mark. the Richmond daily papers all
being in favor Of in rustns to VALEN-
TINE the work of designing and erect
ing the LEE monument. They have
all expressed themselves emphatically
70 the effect that VALENTINE is the
artist who Of all artists is best equipped
for the work. Further: They are sus-
tanned in that position by some of the
leading southern papers outside of
Richmond--notably the News and the
Virginian Of Lynchburg, the Land
marx of Norfolk, the Wilmington IN.
CO. Star, and the Charleston Is. o.
News and Courier. As to the Her
ads second declaration, it is al
most as wild as its first. sit is
generally conceded" is very broad
statement. That there has been some
recent criticism of Mr.. VALENTINES
,ecumbent figure aud that some
opposition to the artist has re-
Gently developed is not denied.
! But that it is generally con-
ceded " by competent judges that there
/ is room for considerable improvement
on the mausoleum figure at Lexington
| is not borne out by the facts. Those
who oppose Mr.. VALENTINE and
cIiticisc adversely his work have
right to their opinions. But,
be they never SO competent as judges
Of art, our observation goes to show
that they constitute very small MI
Loiity compared with the hundreds who
have also claims TO being considered
competent judges, and who rank the
LEE recumtent figure as a masterpiece
Of monumental sculpture. A we'll
known writer on art says "Toe true
test Of the power Of sculpture is in its
,epose. We then feel that all its parts
snd motives are in unity. They
affect the mind as do the grand features
Of a landscape. We can no more escape
from the impression produced by per.
feet ststusry than We can from the
Effects Of uttered thought; eternity will
sull find il in our companionship." We
find that the consensus Of opinion Of
hundreds Of persons whose cultivation
and opportunities for observation
should render them competent judges
is that VALENTINES Lexington figure
stands his test. We find that the i'm
preston il makes upon the masses is
The impression described by the au-
ihority we baye quoted. We find, We
think, that this Is the impression also
produced by yALESTISE's andre
Iuscbe and his LEE equestrian model.
Certain it Is that, after having studied
any one Of the three examples mentioned,

Mr.. Call's Speech.

Whilst the MORRISON resolution was
under consideration in the United States
Senate there were made upon it num-
Der of speeches remarkable for their
ability. The speakers were not con-
fined to one party. Nor did they con-
tent themselves with discussing the
MORRISON resolution alone, bat treated
the general questions Of finance more
or less closely connected with the main
purpose Of that resolution. Some OF
the speakers we're what are called
monometallisis and others Of them BIZ
metallists, and still others not certain
of their footing.
Mr.. CALL, of Florida, made one Of
the most striking of these speeches.
He discussed the whole money ques-
ton. His speech reads like book on
political economy. Amongst the other
points he touched was how gold aud
silver were TO be prevented from part
ing company. lie says it is fact that
q pound of silver made into coin is
worth nearly one fourth less than the
value which the law declares it to pos
ssss, whilst pound Of gold made into
coin is worth all that the law declares
IL TO be worth. Yet these two kinds Of
coin are at present Of equal purchasing
value. Can they be kept so, and if
they CAP, how?
Mr.. CALL said if he bad it in his
power he would defeat the MORRISON
resolution. lie complimented the Sec
rotary of the Treasury, extolled his
financial measures, and said he had
shown q wisdom far beyond the wis
dom Of the politician. He also Landed
the President. "Use, not law, makes
value" The debtors largely exceed
the creditors in number. Hence, "the
great function which the law imparts
to money, that which gives to it its
graf power and influence over the
lives and fortunes and the welfare of
the people, is its legal-tender power"
Nevertheless, he says truly, that "all
the enactments Of power and the de-
vices Of individuals cannot give value
to that for which man can find no ade-
ouate current use, and the value is
purely in proportion to the facility, con-
veniencs, and permanence of its use."
Mr.. CALL comes to the conclusion
that in whatever view we may regard
money, with its great power over the
business and happiness of oil the peo-
pie. with the facility and success Of
combinations to affect Its value, whether
by an int, rfertnce with the fixed ratio
prescribed by law or in other ways, the
Or, servation Of the interchangeable
value of gold and silver is an object
worthy Of the efforts of the Govern
ment, and tie treasure that may be ne
cessaIy TO be used to accomplish it is
neither idle or unemployed in the in
terests Of the people. In other words,
that if it was necessary to keep tive
hundred millions Of coin in the TreAsu'
ry as a means Of making gold and silver
coins worth their face value, that muct
money ought to be devoted to that pur
pose.
Coming from southern Democrat
this speech is noteworthy.
