W. D. Kelley, of Pennsyl
Hon.
vania, has returned irom Europe im
proved in health, and proposes to
take a lively part in the business of
the next congress. One of the pet
hobbies of Mr. Kelley is the abolition
of the internal revenue system, which
he says ought to be, and must be,
abolished. The revenue system has
few admirers and few defenders, but
still its abolition meets with consid
erable opposition, even in the South,
where it is most odious and has been
most oppressively and xdiously man
aged. We favor tearing it out root
and branch, not on account of the tax
collected through it, but on account
of the machinery through .which this
tax is collected. If a wayaai'be de
vised of, collecting thetax by tneans
less objectionable, let it standbut if
not, then let the system and the ma
chinery by which the. system is man
aged both go. The people can and
will stand the taxes better than they
can or will stand the agencies for
collecting them, and we believe while
taxes must be levied they would pre
fer to see them levied on such articles
as liquors and tobacco than on what
they eat and wear. It costs about six
millions of dollars a year to run the
internal revenue machinery and keep
up a sang of collectors, deputies,
clerks, storekeepers, gaugers, and
other hangers on like the sixty-day
men who are called into service pre
vious to elections to work for the
party, secure votes for the Republi
can ticket, and draw five dollars a
day from ihe government. The col
lectors are, as a general thing, the
head centers of the party in their re
spective districts, and when so in
clined, which they generally are,
through the number of men they
have in their employ and the patron
age and money they control, they can
run the machine. This needs no proof
here in North Carolina, where we
have had such abundant evidence of
it. But a few. days ago we published
the suinnaary dismissal of Deputy
Collector Dudley at Newbern by Col
lector Young simply to placate a col
ored member of congress who sought
vengeance on Dudley for opposing his
election to congress. Here Boss Young
exercised his arbitrary power in vio
lation of law air the bidding of a man
whose temporary influence he court
ed, and whom he was afraid to offend.
a
This is only qne instance of hundreds
that have occurred of the despotic
sway of the men who exercise author"
ity in this close corporation, and run
it in defiance ol the law when the law
conflicts with their wishes or inter
ests. The only way these abuses can
be effectually remedied is A by wiping
out tne. present system, . wnicn aas
been run in the, old raits so long that
it is utterly impossible to bring about
a'newvdeparfcure. X-ret rid of the col
lectors and their army of subordi
nates, and thus take theflystem out
of politics; make some other, pro
vision for the collection of necessary
tax, and the anost odious feature of
the system will disappear, and the
people will bear the tax cheerfully.
It ought to je done, and by the next
congress.
Registration closed in New York
city Saturday evening with a total of
182,144 voters. This is a decrease of
about of 35,000 compared with the
paradentia! year of ' 1880, and a de
crease of .14,000 compared with 1882,
when a ; Governc-r Was elected. This

Hon. W. S, Holman, of Indiana,
says there is no presidential bee buz
zing in his bonnet and while he ap
preciates the preference that some of
the press have shown for him he is
not a candidate in any sense.' He
goys "the indicatijonsare that if ;Til-
den concludes to accept the nomina
tion, Tilden and Hendricks will be
the next candidates, and, if so, there
is hardly a shadow of a doubt of their
election.
The South, published in New York,
speaking of Mr. John T. Patrick,
general agent of . immigration for
North Carolina, pronounces him one
of the most energetic men in the
State, and says he is managing the
immigration work soas to inspire
confidence; iri tjie people thai some
thing1 will be accomplished: " '

The building of the Kimball House
in Atlanta seems to hang fire. It was:
announced some - time aga that the
work would go tight on, but now it
seems that $20,000 more must be sub
scribed before the work will begin.
Some of the anti-civil-rights deci
sion Kepubhcans concluded thy
would start a little Harlan boom 'for
the presidency. But Judge Harlan
quashed it in its infancy by coolly
informing them that he didn't want
to be ' 'embarrassed by politics. " We
suggest that they now turn to Bob
Ingersoll.
There are 900 tons of coined silver
stowed away in, the Treasury vaults
at Washington. Secretary Folger
took the English Chief Justice Cole
ridge through and showed it to him.
He wanted to know what the govern
ment was going to do with it. Why,-
keep it locked up, of course, until the
Republican party gets out of power.
The Atlanta Constitution says that
Atlanta consumes 2,500 pounds of
butter per day at a cost of $750
hard cash, at least $500. of which goes
out of the State. And yet Georgia is
a good grass growing State where the
dairy business cap be conducted with
out difficulty. Replies from a dozen
or so of the Atlanta grocers show that
they sell nearly all Northern and but
very little Georgia made butter.
Frank Harper, who inherited two
of the greatest race horses this coun

"Longfellow is now sixteen years old
and Ten Broeck twelve. I always
keep a guard over them, both night

for Longfellow, but I wouldn't sell
him for $100,000, nor would IseU Ten

The Ohio Election.
Cincinnati Neva-Journal.
It took two whole weeks to get
them, but the official returns of the
Ohio election are all m at last, and
the Democrats, at least, will feel that
they are well worth all the work
and all the waiting for. Here they
are:
ForHoadly, D 359,593
For Foraker, R 347,064
For Schumacher, P 8,361
For Jenkins, GJB 2,785
Total Vote 721,464
For Prohibition 321,185
For Regulation : 98,050
Hoadly's plurality 12,529
Hoadly s majority over all
Majority against Prohibition.. 79,086
Majority for judicial amend
ment m,tay
In 1880 the total vote was 724,967,
and Garfield's plurality 34,227. In
1881 the total vote was 624,226, and
Foster's plurality 24,309. In 1882 the
total vote was 632,189, of which New
man, Democrat, had 316,874; Town

than -Garfield got, but he received
8,000 more than were cast for Han
cock. On the other hand Foraker
falls 28,000 behind Garfield and runs
only 6,000 ahead of Hancock. To our
mind I this indicates a substantial
Democratic erowth, and indicates
that . Ohio is a Democratic State-
that her people have repudiated Re
SubHcanism, alias Dorseyism, alias
'osterism, alias Shermanism, alias
Unconstitutionalism. This is what
Lthe figures appear to us to mean, and
it further appears to us that it was
the figures that did it. But we Con
fess that we are not good at making
ngures lie. so we turn them over to
our esteemed Republican and matbe
matical contemporaries, with full
permission to juggle all the consola
tion out of them they can find in
them.
Slavery in EaglaadV

The pleasing notion that there is no

rudely shaken bv an extraordinary
fltory which was told the other day
in the Police court. A lodging-house

screams she had often heard through
the door. The boy. it appeared, had
beeen purchased in Africa as a ser

replied : "Oh ! he is only a colored
chjld: and; besides, he belongs to my

ference seems to have been visited on
the little boy. vho had his wrists
tied together, and was hung up to
