A bill has lately passed tho Senate

A bill has lately passed tho Senate
to, authorize the authorizes to settle
with Seldom, Withers& CO., at par
BY this bill the State loses only about
$4,000. twill be remembered that
Gov. Floyd on tho part of the State,
made contract with Seldom, Withers
& Co., bankers, allowing them alone
to sell the State bonds, and giving
them all that they brought over three
per cent premium. They sold several
million Of dollars worth of State bonds
and failed, providing for their credi.
tors, and leaving the State the last in
their deeds of trust. Several years
havo since elapsed, and in the mean.
time the State, through Mr.. Baxter,
their attorney, have made inquiry in
to the pecuniary condition Of the par
ties, and the resalt is that they are re-
ported ne perfectly sound. Neverthe-
less. in the face of Mr.. Bakers report,
a bill has been introduced into the Leg.
islaturo, and has passed the Senate,
to release Messrs. Seldom and Withers
from their contract, and releasing
them from the payment Of three per
cent of the premium they received up.
on the large amount Of State bonds
they sold under their contract. The
auditor informs me that Seldom, With
ers, 4 Co., sold the State bonds, un-
der their contract, at eight per cent
premium, which was just fse per cent
profit on the whole amount Of bonds
they sold. The bill which passed the
Senate and is now pending in the House
proposes to settle with them, at par,
which is just three per cent less than
their contract calls for, and amounts,
as am assured by the best authority,
to a loss to the State of just $3.50, 900.
Hon. Shelton i. Lcakc, it is said has
been lobbying here the whole session,
for the passage of the bill, and it
seems, with but too much effect. New
erthelcss, hope the bill will be amend
cd before it passes the house.
Next Saturday week is the day when
the term of the present session of the
Legislature expires. There is much
talk as to extending the time. Some
of the members are in favor of hurry
ing up and adjourning-.others are for
an extra session next winter, and not
a few will go home at the end of the
80 days. Yours, J. B. B.

The ArMOry Bill.

This bill has not been brou ght to
the notice Of the public as it deserves.
II proposes simply as follows.-Youpg
Nirginians from 16 to 25 years, with
out any means Of education, will dis
charge the duties Of Public Guard, and
III return will receive practical edu-
cation, board and clothing. For which
object no appropriation in addition to
the present appropriation of the Guard
is asking of the Legislature.
Everything is ready. The officers
of the Armory wish to unite their cx-
crtions in this scheme Of education.-
Capt. DIMMoCK, Of distinguished grad
uation at West Point, whose manage
mcnt ofmen has been most highly APP
proved Of, whose scientific and prac.
teal skill is known in various works
which he has accomplished or suggest
cd, unitcs the qualifications Of supc-
rior superintendent Of such school,
Each representative can think of
some young man in his county unable
to pay anything, WHO would be glad
to get an education and his support mt
the Armory by simply discharging the
duties Of the Guard.
The bill is entirely stripped of OBJ
.icctions. There is no rivalry with the
Lexington Institute, as the bill asks
for but one class Of schoral5-thosc
unable to pay anything, which class
cannot get admission mt the institute,
for the State cadet there has to pay
certain sum yearly. This bill has pas
sed the Senate, but has been indcf-
nitoly postponed III the House, but the
above being truly everything in the
bill or the intentions Of its advocates,
it is greatly to be hoped and may be
expected that those who worked
against the bill on account Of the In
stituto, and those who voted without
fully understanding its objects and
limits, will reconsider it, and 10 lon
ger oppose scheme which recommends
itself to every good man, as educating
the poor of the State without cent
additional appropriation, or interfering
with any enterprise. ..... .. . .

A great outcry wss raised abroad,

A great outcry Was raised abroad,
against "Americanism," and 1T was
ignorantly or maiiciously asserted that
a general persecution Of foreigners
was intended. Suoh, however, was
never the case; the rights of foreign
crs have never been invaded, and never
will be invaded. Popular sentiment
here has always erred on the opposite
side, and, unfortunately for the pub
lie good, has sympnthized with people
OF every class and condition, without
the lishtcst discrimination. Weshould
not, perhaps, regret our extravaganza
generosity, even though it has been Of
ten extravagantly abused. But, at
the same time, this great increase Of
criminals among the foreign population
of our large cities is matter which
merits inquiry for it is not upon them,
but upon tho Republic of the United
States, that the stain rests in the eyes
of the world.
1t is gratifying to those who have
long and consistently advocated Amer
lean principles to sec these tributes TO
their truth and excellence, these tri-
umphant vindications of their justice
and propriety. Party discipline, will
ful Misrepresentation, and violent q.
buse have kept thousands and tens of
thousands and hundreds Of thousands
OF the people from understanding and
approaching and openly approving the
whole platform of these American prin-
clples, but in the mean time they have
silently but surely commended them-
selves to the popular heart everywhere.
As the scales of prejudice are reno
we'd, the public appreciation begins to
manifest itself. Wherever and when
ever direct vote has been compelled
upon any proposition advanced by the
American party the decision has been
IN its favor, and it should be matter
of congratulation to Americans that at
last there is prospect that the spuri-
Gus issues which were invented by 20.
lltcians to avoid the questions present
ed in the American platform are about
to be abandoned by the people, and
Amoricanism, pure and adultoratcd,
will be brought directly before the pop
ular tribunal. In such trial there
can be but one result, and that one
will be the triumphant yindication of
the American party.

HEAVY OPERATIONS Pick pockets
were exceedingly busy last Monday in
relieving strangers of their spare
change. We have heard of seventeen
men and three ladies who were rotbed
of various amounts ranging from SIS to
$500. One gentleman had the breast
of his coat and vest cut through, and
his money taken from the side pocket
of an under shirt. Another had his
pants cut, but discovered the rent be-
fore his wallet was taken. With such
gang of skillful thieves in the midst
of honest, unsuspecting persons, it is
not to be wondered at, that so many
daring robberies were committed on
the Capitol Square, last Monday, du-
