courtisan, le debauch6, le renegat

Ia l'homme que NJ. Blouet appelle

CO."
Nous savons quill est de mode
parm1 les demagogues qui tiennent
au1ourd'hui le haut du pave en-
France de faire de Voltaire un es-
pece de dieu de la democratic.
Cette legende peut passer eu
pres de ceux qui ne connalssent

ne plus que lui ne fut aristocrate
dams le mauvais sens du mot; per-
some plus que lul ne m6prisa lie

CONNIE personne ne fut plus plat

Too Much Delay.

about the machinery, but we rata e. =
think there is too much delay in tfe
Mills bill. The country demands
ssriy action in the matter. ltis one
:of great importance and must OF ne~
csssity have an important bearing IN
the election. The sooner this ques-
isioa Of taxes is settled the sooner the
people will become reconciled. The
,country has been promised, and they
expect reliet from the burden OF u"'
necessary taxation. It . in the pow
Ter Of the Congress TO aettle this mat

We pay from taxation in the State
for interest on the public debt about
isl15,OOO; for penal and charitable in.
:stituticng about 100000; and for
other State expenses about s23O,OOo.
SO it seems We raise tor schools about
ss much as we do by taxation for all
the other expenses OF the State put
stogether. We raise for schools four
rdollars to-day to one dollar fifteen
years ago.-Ne,v and Observer
. Yet out of this sum paid almost en-
tirely BY the white people. the color
ed people get more than bal: tor their
Schools. and SO they will keep up the
eolored line and vote soIidly tor the
,Rsds that never gave them a School
or spent hardly a dollar for their edu'
cation. The white people are good
enough to pay for the education OF the
negro, but not good enough to vote
