Wear tlie Way, Ono of the greatest Improvements that * oould bo made to tho appearance ol Btoad street would be tho removal of tluf trees from the sidewalks. As a fiord - Inff shado In tho heat of summer, they are of little benefit, as most of tho places of buslucssaro provided with capacious awnings. On tho Qther hand, tho trees obstruct a' view of tho buildings, and thus tend to diminish tho business ap pearance of tho street. Wo have heard the suggestion made,, on several occa sions recently, that tho ti^es on this street should fie cut down, and we can our vote for the measure. On a reoeni visit to Columbia, wo observed n won der/ul Improvement to a portion of the principal street of that city, by tho re moval of such trees. We hope Council . Will canvass the subject. 1 ? ? < i Property In Kershaw.

"(Jrejlxunl'' on the Revenue, The Internal Revenue tax for the year 18S2 amounted to iM40.;i21 ,27tf. Ot this sum, $11 1), 100 were collected in South (. "tiroliua, and $5, 451,. '1151 were collected ; in N?w Jersey. These t.w o States have hourly an equal population, and yet the abovo stated facts are prima /uric evi dence tluit New Jo-soy pay's |45 pi>r capita tor ?very $1 paid by South Caroli na. But, when we consider that the In tel ua 1 lie venue tax is levied principalis upon articles of common cmisumptior, and that the consumer pays the. tax final ly. theli we conclude that the tax is paid equally (per capita) by consumers who consume an equal quantity of the commodity taxed. Therefore, "if South Carolina consumes a pro rata amount of whiskey and tobacco with the other Stales, and if the tax was levied exclu sively on these commodities, she would really pay $'2,080, 425, Instead of the ap parent sum of $1 10,100; and New Jersey would pay really about $8,000,000, In stead ol *5, 451 ,3(H. But, In fact, only about $80,000,000 are collected on w his key nutl tobacco; hence, according to the above rates, the sum paid by South Car olina on these commodities would lie $ 1 ,000,000, or about 10 mills on the dol lar of the assessed value of taxable prop erty In the Stale. ThU heavy burden Is Imposed on South < arollna by the Republican party to In crease the patronage of tin* executive and tlina keep an army of ofilce-holders to he lifted In every State, at the public ex penpo, lor partisan purposes and to stl lie an holiest expression of the political Convictions of the people. The govern inent no longer needs this "war tax;" the treasury Is full to overflowing. But Mr. Blaine proposes to continue the col lection of thU tax and give It lo the States, to be given by them back to the people from whom it. was collected? the giving buck process lo be accomplished by re duced taxation In the Stales. lie wants to keep up Ills political organization of 6tt1ee-?holcl<TB? paid by I lie whole people ?to perpetuate the rule of Ids par'y. Our free Institutions are {copardlzed by the Improper use of executive pation age. 1 he cnliufttotk of plunder, t he pro tective tin IIV principle which secured the support of the monopolist, and the im pro|H?r use of executive patronage has heretofore seen rod a continuance of the Republican party In power. Senator Butler has Introduced a bill to repeal the rovenuolaws, but the cry Is raised against cheap w Idskey and tobacco ami dear sugar and Cloth. II the coiiMimcra of whlftkoy and tobacco should he taxed at the prent'iit rate of Internal revenue tax, why not lovy the tax In the State and tliufl reduco the property tax, and like wise avoid the evil of a standing army of Republican Ofllce- holders In our midst to oxclto race animosities and at every elec tion to endanger the rule of the a Idle man and the per'pci nation of honest gov ernment In Butt th Carolina? v OrtRYnKAjnn.

A hard-hearted political economist, looking at a pale and puny child feebly gasping as it lies upon a pillow, says that the child might as well die. It is so weak and poor that its life will never be worth mucn anyhow, There are already a good many people in the world who are of not muel) Account anyhow. And what's the use of adding to their number anothet Weakling, who has but slender chance of ever amounting to anything? Now ask that child's mother what she thinks about letting the child die. About this time the hard political economist had better get out oj the way. " Let my child die? No I No/ As long as there is a remedy to be found thnt will save that child, the child shall not die/ I'll spend my last lollar to save the child/" Well, try a bottle of Hrown's I RON filTTERS ;>n ?hat child.
