DECORATION on GRAYEs-MENoRrAL DAY
WITH QUE HEBREw LApIEs, &c-E Is
gratifying to see that years Do not affect the
ardorg or our women, and that as In days
gone by they. tended the wounds and
bathed the feYerish brow of the defenders
of the soil, they now bestow tear of re-
gret, and place the first flowers of spring on
the graves of those who /" sleep their last
sleep" on Virginia's soil.
Yesterday the Jewish cemetery present.
ed a lovely appearance. From early morn
till dewy eve matron and maiden, little
girls and manly boys, might have been seen
vending their way to the grounds, and
long ere midday every grave, without dis
tinction of rank. or State, was literally
covered with flowers wrought into baskets,
Wreaths, hearts, and bouquets.
The railing which encloses the section
was beautifully ornamented. Wreaths Were
placed on every cap which surmounts the
furled banner; while the entire balustrade
was decorated in manner which Goes
credit to the taste Of Richmond s daughters.
The graves in the private sections re-
ceived much attention, as all seemed de-
s'rous of paying a tribute to every soldiers
tomb.
We were informed that numbers Of flow
crs were sent from distance, and were
requested by the ladies Of the Association
to thank the donors for their liberal contrl-
buttons.

The Straight Shoot.
For Lhs DisDatyh.


The time has arrived for the adoption of
measures that will secure to Richmond that
share of tue benefits to bc derived from the
completion of the Chesapeake and Ohio
railroad to which her location, united with
other circumstances, justly entitle her, and
to devise means to carry into effect such
measures as may be detarttiihtd Upon. 10
neglect longer such important considera-
tions is to jeopardize her future prosperity
and render of no avail the extraordinary
advantages nature has bestowed on our
beautiful city. Other cities arc looking with
eager eyes to the means Of directing to their
own markets the vast traffic to be developed
by this great enterprise. Baltimore, with en-
crgy and perseverance worthy Of imitation,
has managed to appropriate to herself one-
half Of the products of Virginia, and Is
striving hard for the other half. She estis
mates the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad at
It's true value, and with unceasing energy
and abundant means Is foremost in the field,
preparing to reap the rich harvest of trade
which the building of this road will pro-
duce.' The Southsidc railroad, receiving It's
impulses from cities farther north, is awake
to the importance of q connection with the
great line stretching out to the banks of
the Ohio aud looking to the rich valley Of
the Mississippi, and the lndefattgable official
who presidcs over its destinies land who 80
gaiantly battles for consolidation will fight
hard for the interests confded to his charge.
Whilst these movements are taking place
it will not do for Richmond to stand idly by
resting Oh her arms and calmly Sllrvet'ns
the contest going Oh hntHre her. But what
have we dohes Literally nothing since "the
surrender towards building up Il new line
Of railroad to escape from the "Cul de
Sac in which the pcrnicious log-rolling
system of the State has placed our city.
Aided by Baltimore, the road from DIM
vile to Lynchburg will sohn be COM
'nencpd, SO that eventually all the freight
| nrer the Clifton Forge, the Virginia and
| Tennessee, the Lynchburg and Danvillc
railroads Except the locaE, must concen-
trate at or pass through DynchbItg. That
city will beeome the great battlefield
fOr freight, and the railroad that offers the
greatest facilities for getting it promptly to
tIde;water will gain the victory. Who can
doubt that the '.stroight-shoot" from Rich
mond to Lynchbrrg will be that road
Build it, and. Richpaond Will become the
cntrepet for the vast traffic passing east and
west over system of roads whose termini
dip in the waters of the Atlantic ON the one
hand and the Mississippi on the other
Fail TO build it, and the opportunity OF
retrieving our fortunes is lost. Richmond
will become, in the significant language o
the West, d ohe.horse town, her streets
converted into cow-pastures, and the hand
soonest dry goods store in the city place O.

There is no use talking, the "straigh

Il
! ihat our readers may clearly understand
The duties Of township supervisors, we
| publish the following extract from the new
! Constitution:
g In each township there shall be elected
| annually one supervisor. The
supervisors of each township shall consti-
lutte the Board of Supervisors for that
| county, and shall assemble at the court
house thereof on the first Monday in De-
cember in each year, and proceed to audit
the accounts Of said county, examine the
books Of the assessors, regulate and equal
lze the value of property, fix the county
levies for the ensuing year, apportion the
| same among the various townships, and
perform such other duties as shall be pre-
| scribed by law"
Designing men, for selfish purposes, are
endcavoring to make the German voters of
Henrico county believe that if the Conserva-
tive candidate In Fairfield township is elect
| ed he will close their beer saloons and plea
sure gardens on the Sabbath, and thus ill.,
| tericre with their private rights and enjoy
mentS, because he is q member Of Protest
! ant church. The authors of this SANDER
! know they speak falsely, and that the super
visor will have no more power to interfere
with the business or pleasures Of our A1er-
man friends than any other citizen. The
Constitution clearly defines his duties, and
Dtlouu luOSc ue COulQ nOG 70 ii ne would
he would not 60 If he could. ~.
Supervisors are to audit the accounts of
the county, examine the books Of the asses
sors, regulate and equalize the: value ofpro-
perty, fix the county leyies, apportion the
same among the various townships, and
"perform such other duties as shall be pre-
scribed by law" and here their labors end.
We cannot believe that any portion Of
our German citizens will be gulled into
Radical support by such unfounded state
mcnts rs some Of the cross.road politicians
are making for personal reasons, or that
they will, in an hour like this, desert the
great body of whites, who are striving
to secure the best men ortownship officers,
md throw themselves into the arms of the
ignorant colored party, now being led TO
ruin by few unprincipled and ambitious
tricksters. The county needs the services
of her best and most experienced citizens
payer Should aid in securing u such agents W as
will do equal justice to all classes.
