r ri nni.u.Mni-iilittii on slares be

. A. Because the Constitation does not allow
that to be done without raising the tax on the white
man. White men are obliged to leare their busi
ness to serre as jurors, as witnesses, to fight our
battles and for other public duties.. The poll-tax
is high enough already, perhaps too high.
Q. But possibly Blares pay enough for cournr
taxis to make up this inequality. ; !
A. Ne. Land is taxed for county pfcrjwaea--
so are white men. In Laooir county, land raiuea
at a little orer 1,000,000 pays to County and State
lJ,04-.4T,while slaves worth(say) $4,000,000 pay

" .- FACTS FO-l THB PEOPLE
Editor of the Dispute h Sib : Pardon a little
erxneino In your neutral columns. The enemies of
Equal Taxation are becomin; desperate. They
see the handwriting on the walL Gov. Ellis, it is
aaid.ia discouraged. He feels that he is beaten
beyond all hope. Pool and Equal Taxatwn are
wtting the East, the Centre and the West, in a
blaae. E11U deserves to be beaUn, and the Dem
ocratic leaders deserve it They knew when they
met in Convention at Raleigh, that a majority of
the Democrats in North Caroline were ia favor of
Equal Taxation that they were in favor f tax
ing stores, as well as every other species of prop
erty, according to Talue, equally and justly. Gov.
Ellis was i mmoTably opposed to ad valorem, and
the Convention succumbed to him. I aay he rfs
afrrc to be beaten, and be will be. Gov. Ellis
has divided and ruined the Democratic party in
w r.o;n ti. f H. ids of Douslas in the
kn inbMtn of the Souh. have ruin
ed and divided the National Democracy; and
they aUdeeerretobe beaton. The people must
have equal and just Uxation, no matter who is
Governor, or what party is in the ascendant.
The Black Republican party roust be beaten and
the Constitution and the Union mast be preserv
ed, no matter who is president, or what party is
inpower. That is the voice of North Carolina
andthe voice of the nation I - ' !
The friends of Equal Taxation have no other
hope of securing it, but by the election of John
Pool and the md valorem candidates for the Legis
lature. I do not make the aatertion on my own
responsibility ol the Democratic leaders. Hear
what they say in their platform at Raleigh. All
they say in their platform at Raleigh. All they
say about the question of taxation, is oonUined
in the 1 1th resolution. Here it is :
11. Resolved, That we are oj -posed to disturbing
any of the sectional compromises of our Consti
tution. State or NationsJ, and that we especially
deprecate tne mtroauciion at uuui vj -ue vu
portion party of North Carolina into our SUte
politics of a question of constitutional amendment
affwcting the basis upon which our revenue is raised,
I believing it to be premature, impolitic, dangerous
and unjust ; at the tame time we deem it the duty
t rwri.i.tura when ned-ini? act for the rais
in of revenue, so to adjust taxation, as to bear as
equally as practicable within the limit- of the
Con-titutkm, upon the various interests and classes
of property in all sections of the SUte. .
Now what does that mean ? Examine it cloo
. mA wiihmit nretadice. ThcT are "opposed to
i;.tn-Mn- invof the sectional compromises of.
the Constitution." Mr. Pool and others have
ahown clearly, that if anyecuooai compromwes
exist in the Constitution, that Equal Taxation, be
ing just and fair to STery citizen, cannot disturb
them. They have argued, that if any were en
tered into by the Convention of I83i, as Gov.
Ellis ana nis xnenas ujog,jor w apiu
of the East, that it is a sufficient answer to prove,
m the record shows, that the East repudiated the
new Constitution at the time, by caning an over
whelming vote against its ratyiemtion? Again, it
is clear and undeniable, that if the alleged com
promises operate to fix an unequal and unjust bur
den upon the laree majority of the people of the
State, they ought to be expmngedjrom the Con
stitution. The people thought so when they
mA,jA M tiftraae i that broke what is called

couise the whole is broken.

theUxe. of citizens were due to the Exchequer

power over such masters, cannot be expected to
make exemptions for such cases. Every cent of
property which a man owns, is the special subject
of government protection, whether the owner has
