FIRST NORMAL SCHOOL OF RICHMOND
Address TO THE STUDENTS By REV. DR..
SEARs.-This school has been in operation
for some months, and is now in very
fourishing condition. 1t is one OF the re-
cipients of Mr.. Peabody's muni6cence, and
is under the control Of trustees who are
citizens of Richmond and Henrico county.
The number of scholars is limited to twen-
ty, and each person before entering is re-
quired to engage that he will finish the
course-usually occupying two years-and
as they pay no tuition fee, students
are required to promise that they will teach
in the free schools of the State for two
years after they shall have completed their
studies.
Rev. DR.. Sears, the highly respected
general agent of the Peabody fund, visited
the school yesterday, and at the request
of the principal made the students short
address, in which he expressed himself
highly pleased with his observation of the
management of the institution, the bear
ing Of the pupils, and their progress in the
various branches of study. The position
Of public school teacher, he thought,
was destined to increase in Importance in
Virginia as it bad in other States of the
Union, and if the duties Of that position
were faithfully performed, the teacher
thereby prepares for himself warm place
in the hearts of his fellow-citizens.
The time will come, and he trusted
that it was not far distant, when
the teachers of public schools will be con-
sidered public benefactors, laboring as
they do to effect the grand end of univer-
sal education-a work second to none in
Importance. Universal education will yet
be the salvation of the stricken South
none, therefore, should refuse to lend
their aid for the accomplishment of that
result. The speaker expressed desire
to see the number of students at this in
stitution largely increased year by year,
and to this end proposed, if it met with
the approval Of those who had the imme-
diate control of it, to increase the ap-
preparation from the fund of which
he is the agent. He regarded this as the
normal school of the State, and for that
reason wished the more that it might sue
ceed. If it were successful, similar, insti-
tutions would spring up all over the State,
monuments to the founders of this. In
conclusion, he bade the students good
speed, and expressed the earnest hope that
they would not falter in the work which
they have undertaken.
After the address many students were
introduced to DR.. Sears, and thanked MIN
for his words of encouragement.

LEAP YEAR.-Our ladies are no doubt
already aware of the fact that this is the
year during which it is their special privi-
lege to pop the question to any fair Young
man who is pleasing to their sight. The
following, from volume on courtship and
marriage, published half a century ago,
will show the antiquity of the custom
"Albeit, it has now become part ofthe
common law in regard to the social rela-
tions of life that as often as every bissextile
year doth return the ladies have the sole
privilege during the time it continueth OF
making love unto men, which they may DO
either by word or by looks, as unto them
seemeth proper, and, moreover, no man
will be entitled to the benefit of the clergy
who doth refuse to accept the offers OF q
lady, or who doth in any wise treat ner
proposal with slight or contumely."

RoRRERY-DRAW1NG W1TNEss OUT.-

RoBBERY-DRAwING WITNESS OUT
R. IL. Walder was arraigned before the
Mayor yesterday morning for stealing
1913 from Charles R. Barnes.
Barnes testified that he had the money
in his pocket, and that he went to bed IN
Walder's room. The next morning he
woke up, and the money was gone. There
was no one in the room but Wildey and
wife. He asked Mrs. Walder for the money,
and she said she would return it to him as
soon as she laid her baby down.
He was severely cross-examIned Dy
Walder, and made some spicy disclosures
not creditable to himself. Said he:
"Mr. Barnes, were you not found up
stairs in Dennis's kitchen in a negro's
bed ?"
"Ah, oh-ah, yes, sir; but l was merely
there to take nap.'
Ga nap! Well, Barnes, were you not
driven away ?"
"Ab, oh, ah-no; was merely told to
leave"
"Colonel Barnes, were you not drunk ?"

no." -
"Barnes, do you not owe me money {"

"Now, Barnes, where we're you that

"I don't know
"Why, Barnes, were you as drunk as

"Ob, ab, ah No, not exactly"
"Mr. Barnes, state to the Colonel

"Straight home"
"Straig ght home, Mr.. Barnes? I won't
ask you any leading questions now; but
did you not tell my wife to take your mo-
ney out of your pocketf"
"I did, sir"
"Barnesl have not lent you money!"
eyes, sir"
After interrogating Barnes about fifty
more times, Walder closed the examina-
ton, leaving his guilt matter of decided
doubt.
Several other witnesses were examined,
and the case continued.

THE MOTHERS STATEMENT.

Mrs. Stang at first refused to give any
information in relation to the attempted
murder, saying that she did not like to in
volYe the family in disgrace; but when
she discovered that nearly all the facts Of
the case were known. she became .cotnthu-
nicative. Her story is substantially as fol-
lows: Between and o'clock Mr.. Stang,
Margaret, and myself went down town,
leaving Andrew, Elizabeth, and Rose at
home. The mother went to ascertain
something in relation to Elizabeth, who
had been working in tailor shop, and the
other members of the family to sell vege-
tables, as was usual. Mr.. Stang and
Margaret returned home about Ii o'clock,
and the mother an hour afterwards.
When she reached the house she found
her husband, Rose, and Andrew lying
upon the floor, vomiting and apparently
suffering great agony. She (Mrs. Stang)
feeling very much fatigued, poured out q
cup of coffee from the pot which was
standing upon the stove and drank it off.
1t tasted unusually bitter, but she did not
at the time imagine that it contained poi
SOD. Soon after taking the coffee, and
while waiting upon her husband and chill
dren, she was seized with vomiting, and
was subsequently prostrated. Rose, the
third child, and the one who remained at
home with Elizabeth, stated to her that
her sister Elizabeth went out shortly after
the departure Of the family, and when she
returned she appeared much excited. She
brought with her, Rose said, a paper contain
ing q white powder, resembling flour, which
she put into the coffee-pot, and stirred it
up. Rose asked her what the powder was,
and was told it. was substance for " set
tling the Coffee" She (Rose) did not drink
sny of the coffee. The mother questioned
Elizabeth about the powder she had put
into the coffee, but was answered eyasiYeiy.
Thereupon she ordered her to leave the
house and never return. Mrs. Stang said
to our reporter that Elizabeth had always
been q g bad girl she would always lie and
steal, and we never could do anything with
her. You just ask Mr.. Kearney, OF the
Catholic asylum, about her; he has had
