ENDURANCE A VIRTUE. following In
structive little story on the sublime virtue OF
patient endurance, is from the New York
Democrat:
A party of young girls were assembled around
a centre-table under the light of q chandelier
in one of our most elegant and fashionable
houses A noble, elderly lady, whose silver
tresses, banded Madonna" wise on each side
of her head, showed that near tour score win
ters had frosted theironce raven beauty, but
whose dark eyes still glowed with that sottened
intelligence that belongs to green old age, sat
not far distant, engaged with that everlasting
knitting with which old ladies are always pro-
Vided.
The group around the table were discussing
matters OF gossip with which young people are
interested. They spoke freely of this or that
gentleman's or lady's peculiarities, foibes,
merits. or beauties. Finally, lady name was
mentioned about whom there seemed variety
ofopiniops She was not only social notoriety,
but one whom all agreed was admired and res
pected, and who, moreover, exerted wide
spread influence. But she was not accOmp-
lished in the usual sense of the word. She
did not sing divinely-nay, she did not sing at
all. She did not play like Thalberg-indeed,
she did not play at all she was not brilliant
conversational; she had never written book;
she had never presided over benevolent
society," and yet her claims to social position,
respect and influence were undisputed.
pray, what did Mrs. d. ever do to obtain
her position anG influence p exclaimed little
beauty, rather impatienty. Breaking from
the circle, and going to the piano, she sent
shower of bells ringing through the room, in
manner Mrs. ID. never could have done. What
has Mrs. ID. ever done 2" and whirling on the
piano stool she faced the old lady. My dear"
said the silver haired matrOn, smiling us only
dear old ladies know how to smile, smile iul
of tender, plying love; My dear, Mrs. ID.
lever did anything-she endured"
What lesson was that. Mrs. d. s vocation
vas to endure Let us teach our daughters
That most beautiful OF all lessons Cor woman,
endurance. When they have thoroughly learned
hat, they will need no other.

LOCAL MATTERS. {.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.-About i o'clock on
Yesterday morning the large building
known as Beliona Arsenal, owned by DR..
Junius l.. Archer, and situated on james
river about twelve miles from this city, was
discovered to be on fire, and In a short while
was entirely consumed. There were num-
Der of other buildings adjacent to this main
structure, but we could not ascertain deli
nitely what damage was done, or how many
Of them were consumed. There was an in.
surance Of 81 ,037 80 on these buildings, but
we could not ascertain the exact amount OF
the loss: The insurance was effected IN the
Home Insurance Company, OF New Haven,
by Messrs. T. NJ. Alfriend & Son. rf.q.
These are very old buildings, the arsenal
having been built in 1916, Formerly 1t was
depot for military stores, and was garri-
soned by company Of United States troops,
but for several years before the war it had
not been much used. Some OF the guns,
however, which are now mounted on the
walls Of Fortress Monroe were made ut this
place. After the commencement OF hos
tilities in 1861 contracts fol, making farms
were given to DIR. Junius l.. Archer, the
owner, and life was once more visible In
the old buildings. Since the surrender no
arms OF munitions Of war have been MANU-
factured there, and the place was well-nigh
deserted. s.,.--. .Ts,,t.. gef..a.r
The fire, was the work of an incendiary,
and suspicion points strongly to an .indl-

brought to justice. +, -. stg,zes-y; ~

The Virginia election, then, no longer
turns upon any question OF principle or any
difference of policy. Walker and Wells
both support the new constitution, and
both oppose its restrictive features sepa-
rateIy submitted. Between the two factions,
however, there is 4 dividing line-that line
Of division which Republicans, Of all others,
should have been most careful to avoid. Be-
tween Wells and Walker runs the color
line.
This symptom is not a pleasant one it
argues not well for the immediate welfare Of
the newly-enfranchised blacks, nor for the
integrity and patriotism Of the white men
who so sadly mislead them. But the division
is already apparent; the mass Of the blacks
support Wells, and the great body OF the
whites support Walker. This is not the re-
suit of any difference of principle, as we
have seen. 1t is not the result Of any pecu-
liar influence or popularity OF either candi-
date, for Hunnicutt, who supports Walker,
was probably as influential with the colored
voters as Wells himself. 1t is because the
Wells convention nominated q negro for
Lieutenant Governor, while the Walker
convention did not. The same symptom
shows itself in the congressional nomina-
tions. In three districts where they have a
majority the negroes are running candidates
of their own color against both the Walker
and Wells nominees, and in three other dis
tricts they also have separate candidates.
The tendency toward a separation between
whites and blacks extends also to legislative
candidates. a y
This division, it is true, will sweep away
all old issues, and prepare all classes of white
men to act in harmony without regard to
past differences, and SO far it will result in
good. But it is by no means impossible that
the divergence may lead to results not for
the welfare of the colored people, nor for
the prosperity Of the State. There Is no
danger of negro supremacy there or any
where else. The danger is that the race
prejudice, now fast giving away, may be
revived and renewed by a manifestation Of
race exclusiveness on the part Of the colored
people themselves. Out of this-it it does,
indeed, result-much misfortune may flow,
and the real advancement Of the colored
people may be somewhat delayed. The
white men who push them forward to these
steps, and who seek through their votes to
secure an influence which they could never
attain otherwise, will, however,. be cast
aside as soon as a. little experience has
taught the voters their worthlessness. The
evil, we may trust, will presently cure
itself, but it may cost something mean
while.-MisSouri Democrat.
