Honest to the core tbemselves tbey demand of their pnblie servsnts tbe very bighest integrity, and tbey will tolerate nothing less, bat I do not believe tbey will disapprove of such judicious expenditure of these pabhe fanda as seeks to give to their State as good and creditable iastitntiODe their neighoors possesa. ; I hate been a close ob erver of the pnblie men of the ate for the last twenty years and; I have sees the trimmer and; the iHgogne go' down while the 'J, straightforward , tnan, wnoTnn, ,rtw w. c. lUmnch wi 'irg to take tbe repoRi- phe-by.N.a Gtabott!f The people of North Carolina are Dot els lit o e UdtU.i a pllllllu anr Taut who wk : io Imild o, Hieir io Kire them puohe iaaiu u siitations and public baildinga creditable to their State, and in which the; can feel a great pride, though they do have to pay taxes for it, if they can . only know their none? is koncttly and judiciously spent.

R , i.,.)r ., puKiir Ritalin -al1 Aieiauaer on ruouc iloaai! Ttie next question of interest, as it appeared to me, was the discus .biou ot tbe public roads and now to make tbein better. Capt. S IS. j Alexander, chairman of . tbe com uiitlee, made a moat iutrresiiug speech on tbe subject of roads. We 'recall a lew ol bis statements aud w, g,ve j.hfm to tbe Chronicle readers. He said, auioug other tblugs: It is tbe duty of the .State to keep up tbe roads because they a e necessary for all business and uif a criterion of civilization. There are but three ways of keeping up the roads int By taxiug labor an'l n'y tbe couutry labor. -iu d By taxing labor and prop erty. 3rd By taxiug propirly alone. Tbe first is a l.nluie. Uudtr it the entire buiueu lalU upon tbe farmers. Men wuo live lu town escape, lily ioiks nave an mea that calling out tbe country people to woik upou tbe public roads is a pnvilege. They do not put a in))er estimate upou this lator. ' Helore 18lt twelve das lalxir was r,.(1lr,.(1 There weie 120,000 men , 1U(J employ oil fur t u olve day.

Alexander, and 1 said "A men and amen." Tiiere never was any just I deal ion in mak int a poor inau woik as much and pay as m ah tax to keep up tbe roads as a rich man. it is a uion strous uutair taxation aud it must te changed. Property ought to lear pa. t of the expense. Awheel tax would be better than this ures- aw The second way is by taxing labor aud property. This is tie system now adopted in -Mecklen burg aud Foisytb. It ought to be everywhere. Under this system every man works four days lu the year and a tax ol from seven to ten cents is levied on the J100. This is tbe best system for North Caro lina, aud tbe most just aud equit- ai,0 The third way ig by taxation alone "This is the best system ol all," said Capt. Alexander, "but it is impracticable in North .Carolina aud the committee recomnieuds that the mixed system le adopt ed.r t'pon the question of working 'convicts on the public roads, tbe Anmmil.nA thrmcrhr thut It wan im i ractiOR00t Cdarlottee township ,r"u . . . , , : done almost as cheap by fiee labor. roati rtW 0f uA og law."

It is better to suffer than to supplicate, and asking a lavor even lrom your own dearest friend is only a mild form of sup plication. Qet what you want by y our own unaided exer ions, or go witbontit. There is more dignity iu penury, uo matter how abject, coupled with independence, than iu indolent comfort gained through the grant of a favor. Don't ask for or be too ready to receive a favor.
