After I graduated from college tay parents wantefl me to be a doctor or a lawyeh They left the matter to me, however, and I chose to introduce Into society a patent squirt cun, cockroach abd bedbug poison combined. The Combined squirt can, cockroach and bedbug poison, of which I was thesole agent, was an excellent article for the household, but it required pushing. 1 neVer allowed myself to be put off with a servant’s ruse. I sooh h arned that success depended on getting into the house and making a short but eloquent speech on the merits of the article di rect to the family. In those days, as now, servants Were Instructed to admit no pedlors. This did not trouble me much, but it gave me some additional work, As r for instance 1 When a servant would come to open the door in answer tor~my rings yoar grandfathey would be on the alert, and os soon as it was opened enough to ad mit my,artn, your grand'ather would reach in,seise the servant by the throat and drag her out upon the stoop. There I would explain matters to the gentle gatelie. I would tell her I was an officer of the government, armed to what could be thb cause tor so utter a collapse, and it is gratefuP to us that the Baltimore Gazette should come to the rescue and show to the world Un< der what a mighty load the State has been staggering. The Gatette does not conceal from View that the cry of "RepudIatl6n’ , among Some classes of Virginians has been partially thecanse of this disaster) but the crowning causes of all are the great wrongs in flicted by the Federal Government since the War. We are told specifically that while West Virginia Was cat off from her the debts of the whole Were left upon Old Virginia. The State was desolated by the war, her barns and fencee destroyed, her forests chtdowot A I biefShOt. On last Thursday night or Friday morning, the 15th ineb, about two o’clock, John Daniels, colored, shot and dangerously wounded Isaac Wil liams. The circumstances are as fol lows ; John Daniels, sb honest hard working cojon&d man, had frequently missed corn, and from signs about bis place had reasons to believe his com house was being robbed, so he determined if possible to catch the thief, and on Tuesday night he Went Into his eotn house to Watch, and had the door locked outside with two Urge heavy locks, and oh the third night he beard some one picking her roads and bridges and dwelling" at the lochs, and finally after eonsid- then but thkdy uettlcl, sod moat of it | the teeth.

States, a magdifleem harvest every year of a staple that brings in vast millions, and thus bet recupera tive powers ate not so great Bat in addition to oil these disadvantages, Federal legislation has laid upon it a heavy burden. Virginia contributes more than twice as much to the inter nal revenue as all the New England States put together. In 187?, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachu setts, Connecticut and Rhode Island, In the aggregate, paid on internal rev enue taxation t!M,928,023, while Vir ginia alone paid $7,932,221. This heavy tax is laid chiefly bn tobacco, which is the only great crop that the State can count upon as a source of wealth. While Massachusetts, wfth a population of 1,457,351, pays $2,908,- 787 of internal revenue, Virginia, with a population of 1,225,520, pays nearly $8,000,000. Since the war she has paid in internal revenue alone, chiefly on tobacco, over $60,000,000, enough to pay the whole debt of the State twice over. This 4s the darkest side. Tho Baltl> more paper is of opinion that even out of the abyss of depression may come renewed prosperity, and concludes as follows l "It may be good fortune, In the end, that it can no longer borrow money on tho credit of the State ; It may be a good fortune that poverty will exact the most rigid economy Her present rate of taxation is lighter ffinuday VfcdllttlloMs. Sow good thoughts sud you w'll reap good actions.
