The tax collector re ports slow progress in making settlements this year, and the time limited to the work ends about 1st November. This probably results in part from the in crease of the. tax under the ameuded char ter, which authorizes the taxing of per sonal property as for county and State purposes. The increase from this cause iu some cases exceeds 33J percent, on the amount collected last year. We are not advised as to the aggregate amount of assessed taxes for town pur poses this year, but it will probably be much larger than heretofore. It is a mat ter of some importance tliat the financial affairs of the town shall be managed with sufficie-nt clerical skill as to -show clearly and satisfactorily, and as much in detail as possible, the various sources of revenue as well as the subjects of disburseurents.

You say that the above is an unreason able supposition, Indeed ft may be, and gladly would Carolina's fathers and mothers welcome the news that no one who professes to teach school in tlie fu ture, will blunder as palpably in the work of the school-room in the hired hand in our supposition. But that also would be an unreasonable supposition. Which is the nearer correct, rail timber 2 feet too short, or judicu'ture for ju'dicatureA five teeth in one end of a.rake and four in the other, or one part of n at an angle of 62 and the other at 42, when each should It at 52; grinding the wrong side of straw-cutter knives, or trfintf to teach children syntax when they have not been taught to read; hitching a heavy -draft horse with a filly, and then whipping the filly because she cannot pull as much as the horse, or classifying a dolt with an expert in philosophy, aud'fillippiug the former for imperfect recitations.

Governor Nieholls, of Louisiana, being asked by a Chicago interviewer his views on the political situation, replied that the cotton and sugar crops were good ; that in Louisiana there is less crime than there has been for twenty years past ; that par ty lines have been broken down and pol itics are forgotten in fraternization and business, and that it would be pre ma ture for hfm to say what be- wpuld do about pardoning the members of the Returning board till they have been tried and convicted. .1 Disfranchisement of Hit Negroes. Wilson Advance. As predicted by( Governor Hampton, the first movement to disfranchise the ne gro, comes from the North. It is now se riously proposed by Northern Radicals to reduce the representation in Congress by disfranchisement of the colored voters. They claim as representation in Congress is based on the voting population, the present House of Representatives would not be nnder Democratic control but for the fact that the negroes are allowed to vote. They have discovered this fact af ter the negro vote lias passed from nnder the influence of die carpet-bagger. As long as they could be manipulated by Radical demagogues, it was a good thing for them to vote, biit now, when the South sends up almost a solid Democratic dele gation to Congressj the negro vote is un profitbale and cannot be endured. The white people of the South opposed placing the, ballot jin the hands of the ne groes immediately i after their emancipa tion", not from any jhostility to the negro, bnt because of their ignorance and incom petency, and the I danger of their being controlled by bad pien to the detriment of the country as theyjhave been in the South. And now, as the jday of their political vassalage is passing away, and they are cutting themselves loose from the bondage of Radicalism, the ;cry for their disfran chisement is echoed by the very men who were loudest in favor of their voting when it would redound to the benefit of Radi calism and give corrupt leaders an oppor tunity to rob and pluuder the Southern people.

From tlie ( hcjeni e Leader. A tramp who arrived- here a few days ago from, the Westjgives his experience in d.ud-headinir it over the Union Pacitic from Cheyenue to Green river, on the Jar- rett &. Palmer train, by climbing upon Mww-.theroofof a coach!. He ssys that from Cheyenne to Sherman he rather enjoyed i i i i oi , the ride, but that between bhermau aud Green river his experience was one never to be forgotten. The rapid movement of the train and the rocking of the coach forced him to wind his arms and legs arounda stove pipe and haiigon for dear life. His hat flew off eailv in flip nnh'ul ..mil Rft; the train Mt ,va8 di,cov. ered by the engineer, who began throw ing a heavy shower of cinders ; but so ra pid was the movement of the train that the heaviest ones merely cut through his clothes, like bullets, while the lighter sparks passed above him. His coat-tails flaI)pc.tl so hard that he realized that h , ,t ... , , , , must part with them, but he dared not loosen band to tuck. them under him, and tliey were soon torn off to blow away. Al tbouglfr Irejnanaged to keep his face be hind tb pipe' near jy all tbe-time, he was "cHueuujr mitiuj cinders to that wh in the face by flying eu he reached G i-een river hia face and neck. were badly cut and scratched. So great was the poor tramp's fear of being thrown off and killed, that this added to the terrible strain of hang ing to the pipe by main strength for so long a distance, and the intense suffering from the wounds inflicted by the cinders, caused bis hair to turn gray, and when he climbed down at Green river, he- looked i like a man who had seen fifty instead of twenty-two summers The two United States Senators who served the longest terms in that august body were sous of North Carolina. We refer to Thomas Ilart Benton, born in Orange couuty, who "served thirty years in the Senate, and; to William R. King, born in Sampson; county, who served twenty-nine years- the former represent ing Missouri, thu latter Alabama. Both held a front rank. Mr. King, as Vice President, presided over the Senate During his occupancy of the chair the two Senators from Arkansas pronouuee the name of their State; differently. Mr. King was a master of etiquette a gentleman of refined breeding. He invariably rec oguized one of the Senators as "the gen tleman "from Arkau-saw"; the other as the gentleman from Ar-Ao-sas."

JONES, GASKILL &, CO. (51:1m.) Correspou deuce of Richmond Dispatch. RURAL ROOSTERS AND CITY COCKS. Quwiuffle, Louisa couxt ry, Va., I -, IS77. S Oct. I again retired, like Ciucinnatus, to Jhe sacred soil. 1 live "off the road," aud have consequently no news to tell, and never hear any. Having "read justed" mvself, I am not greatly concerned about readjusting the public debt nor anything else. It the creditors of the State can stand the existing arrangements I think I can also. I don't wish the taxes ou realty to be raised, however,' for they are already too heavy for me being at least twice the amount usually stated iu the discussion ot the State s finances. I pay the couuty treasurer annually not merely 50 cents on the $100 of the assessed value of my land, but at least 100 cents. This, of course, includes the county tax, the district-school tax, &c, as well as the State tax. If, however, I calculate these aggregate taxes as imposed upon that portion of my laud which affords me no income or profit, then I am paying eight per cent, per annum iu taxes! I believe, too, that this enormous impost is practically in operation all over V irgtnia, and that but lw counties can be claimed as exceptions. I kuow that yon teJl me to sell. But I can only au swer bv asking vou to buy for there is uo other purchaser in the market. I must hold the land or throw it away. I prefer to keep it, in hope of a better day But I did not start out to say even so much about public affairs, having "doffed the world aside and bid it pass." Long a believer iu the following lines, I have come here to test their truth : "llai'p; the man ljose wjsh and care A tew paternal acies Lound; Content to breathe iis nati e air In bis own grouna. Whose herds with . i k, whose field with bread Whose Hocks supply hitn with a lire; Whoie tree in aunruer yisld him shade, la winter, fiie." So far my experience has met with ma- uy unexpected ditliculties. I find that looms aud spinuing-wheel have gone out of use, aud that the knitting of socks would be a lost art but for here and there a sur viving grand mother whostill plies this nee: dies of her lons-irone youth. In fact, 1 find all ruraldom cockueyized to a painful extent, insomuch that all idyllic pictures of woodland life begin to appear as bage impositions niton mv too-connuing uaiure The rural rooster ajtes the city cock, dis dains the plough, aud aspires to couuter- hoppiug. Dame Tartlet and all ber pit! lets are alike infected with the same dis order, and scorn homespun as a badge o degradation. In fact, homespun is obso lete, if there be anv m the land at all "Store-clothes" are now the usual ware throughout the country, and city ways aud uiauuers (a little rawly put ou often now prevail in even the most secluded Quarters. I he railroads nave demoraiiz ed our whole yeomanry and peasantry by brinirinc them into too easy and too fre oueut contact with the cities and towns, Even the rosy-cheeUs that once marked the boys and girls of our farms (if we may ftelieve tradition) aro now "sicklied o'er" by sallowness due to persistent efforts to live in the country as people are under stood to do in the . city. The freshness and bloom, the iunocence and simplicity, formerly ascribed to the rustic population have vanished, to be clumsily and tawdi ly replaced by fashionable affectations, pa- per-collars, shody, and cosmetics. Faugh ! 1 he rural rooster abhors his native dung hill, and longs for the coop of the city cock. If he cannot get a place in town, then let him be a brakeman on a railroad, for then he will at least have opjortu si ties to taste of urban life. And thus the cities and towns are crowded with an idle class of young men who should be tilling the soil, while the neglected soil is becom ing a desert or a wilderness ; and hence the hard times that now oppress us all. Why, God bless us, Tirginia alone has enough uncultivated land to afford em ployment and a decent and independent support to all the tramps in the United States, aud to all the strikers into the bargain. However, I gave up the project of re forming the world a year or so since, aud I will let it go now e'en as it will. After all, the rural sooster still has virtues of his own. He is hospitable yet, although not so profusely liberal as his father ; he is not so suspicious as the city cock, aud retains some confidence iu his felllows ; he does not crow so much nor so loud as his city brother, and he "goes to meetin'" whenever he can. He gets up later and lies down later than of yore, but is still behind the city cock in these particulars ; and although he works harder, he does not work so rapidly nor so steadily as the citv cock. In fine, notwithstanding the railroads, the rural rooster is slow, while the city cock is fast. The city chicken is always in a huny ; the rural one, never. But I hear the mail train coming, and I must close. Cecil. A Destructive Fire. New York, October 20. A dispatch received here from Portland, N.
