A WORD TO SEVERAL BUSINESS
MEN

Can our friends, who manage the affairs in
this city, of the Adams Express Harnden's Ex
press, and the National Express Companies,
state any good and sufficient reason why the
Job printing which is used in their Norfolk Of
fees should be sent out Of the city to be exc
cuted? These companies all solicit patronage
from our citizens to sustain their operations
here, and by that patronage they make money;
this money they take away from the city, even
to the extent Of what blanks are used in their
Offices.
1t is pretty generally known that all three
Of the above institutions are owned elsewhere
than in this city; and it seems to us it would
look little more reasonable and liberal in
them, while they are thus endeavoring to
make money out of our people, to occasionally
have some Of their work, if not all Of it, done
here, where they make their money.
We don't like to see all the money that is
made out of our citizens carried elsewhere to
be invested. 1t is this policy that has kept our
city poor Let's soc if wa can't remedy the
evil by changing the policy.

The Broken Atlantic Cable-Voices
from the Sea.

from the Sea.
The London Spectator tells the following
singular and most interesting story:
might and day fora whole year, aaelectri
clan has always been on duty watching the
tiny ray Of light through which the signals
are given, and twice every day the whole
length OF wire-one thousand two hundred
and forty miles, has been tested for conduc-
tivity and insulation. x * The object
Of observing the ray of light was of course
not any expectation of message, but SYM
ply to keep an accurate record of the condi-
ton of the wire. Sometimes indeed wild in
coherent messages from the deep did come,
but these were merely the results of magnetic
storms and earth currents which detected
the galvenometer rapidly, and spelt the
most extraordinary words and sometimes
even nterces of nonsense, upon the
graduated scale before the mirror. Sudden
ly last Saturday morning, at six o'clock,
while the light was being watched by Mr..
May, he observed peculiar indication about
1t which showed at once to his experienced
eye that message was at hand. In few
minutes afterward the unsteady Pickering
was changed to coherency, if we may use
such term, and at once the ca BILE began to
speak, to transmit, that is at regular inter
walls, the appointed signals which indicated
human purpose and method at the other end
instead of the hurried signs, broken speech
and lnarticulate cries of the still illiterate
Atlantic. After the long interval in which
it had brought us nothing but the moody
and often delirious mutterings of the sea,
stammering over its alphabet in vain, the
words Canning to Glass Unjust have SEEM
eel like the first rational word uttered by
high-fever patient, when the rawlings have
ceased and his consciousness returns"

With the abolition of slavery the three
tifths rule becomes obsolete, and the new ap-
portionment will be made on the entire pop
ulation, if the Constitutional Amendment is
not adopted. The population of the North
ern States, according to the last census, was
1891 25, and of the Southern States, IL,
237 1898. The entire number of Congressman
allotted to these States is 241. Dividing
the entire population by this number, we
have as the ratio of representation 1873, 245.
If the Constitutional Amendment is not
adopted, under this ratio the following
would be the representation in Congress and
the Electoral College:

concluded not to offer them for exchange until
the reception of special instructions from the
General Assembly.
