When one has 1 jDg but ap parently siaglsj-handed contended lor a correction of the erils arising out of our preeent system of assessmg the taxable proper y, it is most gratifying and encouraging to have such recruits as the (iovernor, Tieasurer and a lead ing newM-ptper como to his aid. A su,e nciai view ot the talse and un constitutional astessments of the tax able property in the State disooven out lew if any of the evils and incon veniences which it entails. I say false ano unconstitutional because as you say "tho best judges" in the State estimate. the property at "double the amount stated by the a sessors." and i. i. . . . . J . . ... i uonoi a .ttt.li aoubie est-ma'e is far bel w the real value. I m"8i re spectfully differ with our able aud honored (iovernor a d others who say me low rate of assessment "does not ma'ter. tho essential idea" being uni. fortuity.. The very fact that assess menta range from one-fourth to one half the leal value must suggest the impossibility of uuilormity. Allow u uu-iiueu. i.roitrary ana otteu il- ditlereut opird ms of assessors" a mar gin so wide, and inc Quality will show the different estimates now complained ot through all-time to come. If equal iz ition at this low rate were possible a pait only of the evils are remedied The assessments hav? been run down so low that the S ate has been com pelled to overreach her proportion of the maximum hxed in the constitution, leaving iho counties a bala ce too mill to defray expenses, as witnessed oy the numerous acts of the the Legis lature to allow a levy of special tax. In many instances the qu.stion is sub mitted to a vote of the people and al most as ofren rejected, while county h ranees become, (as the member fiom O tlniiks) a tit snbj 'ct for L sgisl t- tive iu stigation. Tue evils aud in conveniences growing cut of this falsi valuation aie numerous, and no that they have beeu acknowledged by those -i ih in authority" anl a remedy de manded, i . is to be hoped the necessary 1'io'in mty come wiin "retrench inent." I must aain differ wifh His hvce.le. cs suggesriou of constituting the "liei urer. Auditor, or other State t th -ers as a State Board of Assessors." These gtntlenien may be well qualified for the places they till, but they canuot ki ow the v;ilue of my cow and pig or land which they have never teen. Vour plan of senaitoral district, or county li aids, if but little nearer to the proper one, as contemplated in my opi-iioii, by the framers of our ad t'llurmn constitution. Aly views are plaiulj set forth in a letter to Col. Po k, published in the News of June lshb, 1877. The Constitution requires an i calortn tax. The Revenue Law require every one to value his hor.-es, mules ami other cattle; his farming uteusils, household, ami kitchen fui nituie, provisions and weariug oppirel, his soUenr credirg, and why not his land? Who knows the value of land any b. tte- or even as well, as he who has owned, worked and passed to aud fro over it for years? He knows what he would lake for it, if for sa'e. He knows what he would give for it, if it belonged to another. If, as some may say, this plsn would give the unscru pulous an advantage over the hone t lister. I reply, not half as much as now. TLe sworu estimate of the ownars would mrely mure nearly approxim ite the real value, than that we now have, wnue tne asses-ois, sua exercisiutr theT pt wit of regulating and tqua'iz invaluis, wiuld not be eo apt "to defeat the will of the Legislature" as now while they drift about in the wide margin between a false estimate nnd "a fair cash value" required by the Consti u:ion and the Laws If o'ie values his property too low, the 6:ime remedy bicb now exists may be ap plied. There are enough honest men in each and every township in the State to nt tho needed example, aud then to see that the law is just ly aud impar tially enlorced. If the Retrenchment and Ref rm party now in the Legisla ture will pass the necessary law to compel a fair and equal ad valorem assehsnient of the propeity all over the Sta'e, they may go the full Cons itu tional power of exempting three huu- died dollars worth of the poor man's wiaring aparel, household aud kitchen furnit.ire, mechan:cal aud agricultural implt ineuts, to the great relief of the more needy class of our people, ami without any corresponding reduction of the i ublic Revenue. Other States have a 'op'ed the plan of having tax- payeis sworn to the value of all their pi opeity listed for taxation and there is no g d reason we should not do the same thine: when it must be a better phn than the one we now have. If any better plan can be suggested. I shall be glad to have the bist one adopted. Oi.ly one areiiment now sucrsiest ii self agains. the practicability ihe Home s'ead. There are numbers of men iu the Sta?9 living on farms worth from two to live thousaud dollars, which have been s t apart and valued atone thou aud dollars as a Homestead to be held a' all hazirds against honest debts. Such men could not affcrd to have an' honour assessment on their lands. They can be ac.-i mmodated only by an aniend ament. to .the Constitution abolishing the Homestead entirely (as should b) or make it one hundred thousand dol lar. Then tbe most of us could fear lessly swear, to an honest valuation of our lands. The overplus would Dot be in danetr of a ggrivi.ting creditors: M. The Industrial U'cst. Aprops to the above article is tbe following paragraph clipped from the Scientific American : "With the over -supply of labor and capital in the East it is natural to look to the great teeming West for an out let for the surplus labor, and for the employment of capital in great enter prise and achievements. The West, that is the great basin east of the Rocky Mountains and west of the Al leghanies, holds a variety of resources and offers an opportunity for indust rial employment; not elsewhere found in the world.' It never for a 'moment occurred to the-writer of that paragraph that there was a great Southern slope southeast from the Alleghanies that was by na ture as varied in; its resources, and far more attractive in climate, to which at least a portion of this surplus labor and unexpended capital should be di rected. No not for a single moment does a Northan man ever think of ad vising emigration or investments Southward. A few invalids or pleasure-seekers will come at a season when it is too cold to remain North and enjoy the balmy breezes of the Land of Flowers ; but except that such persons put in circulation a few dollar during their stay, they are of little ad vantage to' a Southern State.

Ihe tide ot immigration has always flowed westward ; the great railroad thoroughfares oflthe country run east to west and bind I the two sections to gether in a sort of brotherhood ; the h,ast gets its food from the West, and tbe West diaws dts money from the East, and thus tjhere is and always will be a common interest between those two sections that is reciprocally beneficial, 'j he feouth, while for the past decade dependent upon the West for her foxl, hasonly labor to make a product for ao Eastern market, where-, withal to procure money with which to pay lor tins subsistence drawn from the West. Thus she has emphatically been hewers of wood and draweis of water for all the rest of the Union. lo-day, however, she is in a condi tion to redeem herself, and blaze out a pathway to successful competition with bjth those sections. The depres sion of trade aud! shrinkage of values that has witliiu the pist live years so atterly prostrated Eastern interests, has been gradually wending i s way Westward, and is arTectinii every in v .sun-lit in that sject ion.
