By WILLIAM H. BEBNABD. WILMING TON, N. C. Monday Evening, July 7 1884. EVENING EDITION. Both Houses of Concrress ad journed for the session at 2- o'clock p. m. to-day. ; - SOME INSTRUCTIVE FIGURES. ' . It is instructive to know ''how the ; money goes." Men must eat and have clothing. Children must be v educated, the Gospel must be preach ed, and tne grand work of eaving men must be carried on. -We have . before us some very significant, some . very alarming, some very reproach ; f ul figures. They are gathered, says the Christian Union9 from "the cen .:;sus of 1830 and other reliable author- ities." - i People are heavily taxed by the i; Government. Since the war the sum that teas been taken from the tai- ; payers is something maryellous to behold- aad to think about. The ' ..' hundreds of millions that have been f stolen, wasted and .misapplied are ; ; enough to make all men of ordinary . f- sense reflect long before they agree to entrust the Government into the haa3 of that party that has done the ' mischief and has heaped up the op- pressions. ' ; -; Taxation is a 'positive necessity and a positive curse. It has to be : borne, however, as we most have a .Government, and there, can be no ; Government without taxes. So all gocd and true citizens will agree to be taxed and to bear their proportion i- of the.public burden. No man, who is able, should be allowed tto go un , taxed. Every voter should be made to pay for the privilege. Why should v a man be allowed to select candidates -, to tax others when he does not pay a cent of .tax himself ? ; It is a foul in .- justice and wrong to those who are i taxed to allow this. a 1- ; - : Bat the heaviest tax placed upon - the people is that which is levied by v teste and appetite. Men expend mor ;. for drinking and smoking and dress i and other extravagances than they! cj dp for government, religion and edul cation. The voluntary tax lftvtpd fnr vice is far greater than the tax im 1 posed to cure souls and educate th mind and to secure an economical Government. ' " I The statistics ' gathered by the .Christian Union are not only in structive but absolutely f startling, lo begin: the total sum expende for Christian missions, home and fori eign, is $5,500,000 That is .conJ temptibly small The sum expendec tor liquor annually is $900,000,000 nine Hundred . millions. Behold the . contrast. And yet the United States are called by way of favor a Chris-i an "nation."., xne total : sum ex pended for education is 1 55,000,000. ' There are ten times as much money! Bpent ior liquor as for education, t ' The other items are as"f olio wi: meal . , ; ; $303,000,0001 - 290,000,0001 ' .r i -BU8 .. 237,000,000: -o"7t " mi7r 233,000,00rt SS2f : - v - 210 ooo ood J r m viAtsHes ., . . . 153,000,000 Thfire-is a heavv tax lenea pu . : A.rta I iron, steel, wopiens,- bvw ; . :J .r.md molasses.VWe uuuwj ouvboi jsi i . .i l do not i vi?flflhR thistax ltiis I a bard Sen and it niesoutof, th There are tens of millions 'of many. 4.5f ma v - j persons who are made to pay. a tax cverv day for the benent ot moso who are engaged in uwumaw""'vi, certain articles. i ms uurucu .o heavy j ifls believed to be far heavifer than there is any necessity for. The tax increases the prices of the manu factured goods or there would be no need or demand for the tax. -.The woolen goods would cost less if there was less tax. It is true goods are now extremely low but they would be lower if the tax was lower, i ne tax on 4,000 articles averages- 43 per cent." If it was but- 30 of ,25 per cent, of course the burden would b less. : . -; V : ! BAYARD THROUGH INDEPBNr j DENT 8PECTAC1.ES. ' : The Chicago Times is edited . with marked ability as are all of the lead4 ing Northern dailies bearing that; name. It carries an independent, lance and it is1 quite as apt to maSo war upon one party xas another, and upon one statesman as upon another. Ta t. 1. on m vynll Irt ' m tn 11 KOOWI) IUUUU Ul uui jfuiuu. and it often, measures correctly. Of Senator Bayard and his elevation to thet Presidency it says that he would be' "an. honest, . upright, careful, "an. honest, upright, pains-taking, scrupulous, thougli not I brilliant chief maffistrate." What a I . .: t ' fA I such a man to be at the head of our Government? Think- of a man sit ting in the chair disgraced by Grant, Hayes, Garfield and Arthur of whom it may be truly and justly affirmed that he is "honest; that he is "up- riffht:" that he is "careful;' that he is painstaking;' that he is "scrupu- r o' - . I lous.' These are noble attributes. These are the precise qualities need-1 ed in an American President. JNever I oVilliancv' so we I secure honesty, and uprightness and serupulousness and carefulness. Bay- I ara ia at least as "brilliant as Grant I or Hayes or Arthur. He has pre cisely those qualities that are needed at this iunctu're. What is "brill- iancy" without virtue? What brilliancy without character ? is Deliver the United States from a "Drimant" ana aepravea v;nici II. Magistrate! Deliver this great coun try from another corrupt administra tion! Deuver our people from forr eign complications and the cost and bloodshed of a foreign war! Give us a President like Bayard, with clean hands, an . -upright heart, diligence and fidelity and an unswerving pa triotism. Mr. Bayard may hot be a "brilliant man after the style of Blaine; but he is a man of solid brains'; a well balanced intellect, '.well culti vated, well .disciplined, well fur nished. He has high views of states- mansbip, ripe experience, a singular , . r . . , , f ' devotion to principle, a brave heart in maintaining the right, and a cha racter so pure and unspotted that he may never fear the light. 1 he New York Sun is , sometimes a dangerous friend and it is always a most dangerous enemy. It is already openinsr it strong guns on Blaine. There was ah editorial of extraordi- i nary merit npon him last week in which it showed what sort of electric light would be turned upon him. It represents a visit to Blaine by "Strict Justice' and makes the latter show a package to the "plumed Knight' and then says pf him : : .. "You would like to look them overi,- I naven t tne least doubt of it, You promi lse farthfully on vour honor to restore them to me ? Ah! my dear 6irX am not Mulli gan, j naven t his simple faith in ' the please of a desperate statesman. . What is in the Jmndle? I assure you that is a very m4 terestmg. - quesuon. - Une . oi the conse4 quences or indiscreet correspondence is that you never know when iudzment dav is coming.

I found the gentlemen there engaged n a discussion suggested by a report they had before them from the .Last Indies, on the immense consumption of tropical fruits all over civilization, and of the comparatively limited rea in which those fruits were pro duced. One of them made a remark that struck toe as being of peculiar importance to your section: T ;It was to this effect, that if communication I j . .' - ... , . I to all parts of the world increased i in the same ratio during the next de fade as it had during the past two, that the demand for oranges, figs. and other well known Traits, and for almonds, olives and other products of the semi-tropical countries would inevitably lead to a considerable ad vance in their, rices, for that con sumption increased in much greater ratio than production. I, was some what staggered by this statement at first and questioned . it, but he over whelmed me with amass of statistics that proved he was exactly right Ten years ago one would have sup- posea tnat tne immense production oi oranges in Florida, to wnicn wo are now accustomed would have made that splendid fruit a drug in the market, out instead the reverse is the fact and the annual average gain in prices is pouring wealth into that gtate m ; increasing volume. Wil mington and the country round about It jean 't produce everything that is raised in California, and there is - no reason why it should not become as famous in the early future , for its semi-tropical fruits as is" the conntrv surrounding the Golden Gate. 1 hope the modesty of the Stab will permit. me' to use its columns for tne purpose of congratulating' the people Wilmington, that they have with them two organs of public opm ion, ready to advance any measure Nhat will promote the prosperity of I qnesuonawy a great future be lore it, I nd the enterprise it is displaying in OCB STATE CONTEKPOBABIES.
