Sir, | might stand here for hours and

the gorgeous prospects of Duluth, as
depicted upon this map. But human
life is too short, and the time of this

Do We BELONG to Him .

Commodore McCready, who carries the
keys of Virginia in his breeches pockets,
and has the whole trade of the Atlantic
coast Gin a sling"--thanks to the assistance
of Mr.. Moncure Robinson and Mr.. Peter
V. Daniel--will be in town tomorrow, and
then the lobby of the monopolists and
obstructionists will be complete. Their
four grand divisions will all be in line
armed, equipped, rationed, and well sup
piled with the sinews of war. The battle will
probably commence tomorrow, or, may
be, this evening. In actual war it is usual
to prepare battles early in the morning
just before the break of day but in railroad
warfare, operations are carried on "by ways
that are dark, and the assault is made on
the outer-works, under cover of the
night, in hotel parlors and private rooms.
To show how completely we now are at
the mercy of these foreign adventurers
from New York and Baltimore, let the
facts bear witness. A few months since
Captain Alexander set on foot an enter
prise which received the warm sympathy
and support of our merchants. 1t was
the establishment of new line of steam
ers between Richmond, via Norfolk, and
New York. 1t was to be Virginian line,
and the boats were to be built here.
Our citizens subscribed literally, and
the line was started As time was re-
quired to build substantial steamships,
other boats were obtained in New York
and put on the line, and at the same time
the construction of the steamers was begun
opposite Rockets at the old ship-yard, and
one of them is fast approaching CONF ple-
tion.
Well, our ''Citizens' line" commenced
operations. But what was the result ?
The managers were confronted at City
Point and Norfolk by Commodore Nc
Cready, with the keys of both those ports
in his hand, and ordered eff. They applied
in vain to obtain freight either way, ale
though offering to carry it thirty per cent.
cheaper than the Old Dominion line. Mr..
Robinson informed them that Commodore
McCready had contract with the Sea-
board and Roanoke road for all the freight,
whether to or from New York, that passed
over that line. And so the " Citizens
line "a Virginian enterprise--could not
get bale of goods to finish out its cargo
from these Virginan ports Comment is
unnecessary.

The Death Of Little Holmes. s.-Y Yesterday
we briefly noticed fatal accident which oc-
Cured on Sunday afternoon while number
of boys were playing with turn-table at the
York River railroad depot, resulting in the
death of William Fl. Holmes, twelve years
and two months old. We since learn that he
was most estimable boy, the son of William
and Ella Holmes, who reside at No. l6 Twenty
third street. 1t is due to the bereaved family I,
called to bear this severe affction so suddenly,
to state that this excellent boy had been a
regular pupil at the Sunday school, which he
had attended that day, and promptly and
cheerfully recited his lessons as usual; and it
is surprising to all who knew him to learn that
he was az that place at the time of the fatal
accident. The funeral took place at o'clock
this afternoon, and was attended by the
scholars of the Sabbath school of which he
was member, and numerous sympathizing
friends and neighbors, who were anxious and
active in expressing their coincidence with the
bereaved parents and family.

A GooD SIdN.-Jadge Kelly, a Radical
member Of Congress, from one of the Phil
adelphia districts, yesterday took occasion
to r mark in the House that he was op-
posed to any further land grants than such
as might be necessary for the construction
of the Great Southern Pacific railroad He
further remarked that the South was en-
titled TO this favor from the government.
Ii gives us much qualification to see this
evidence of an improved spirit and temper
towards the South from such quarter.
Il affords an additional evidence of re-
turning sense Of justice and friendliness at
the North. Judge Kelly has hitherto fol-
lowed his party in all its ultra measures
for the humiliation Of our people, and his
declaration! yesterday was quite an agreea-
BILE surprise to us. Thugs are evidently
working more favorabIy for real pacifica-
ton, and if Mr.. Kelly's example is followed
it will not be long before the President
will see his invocation, "Let us have peace"
realized. Petersburg Courier.
The South will yet find that the Repub-
lieans are her best friends.

The Richmond branch is in a very pros
porous condition, and is daily growing in popu-
larity with the laboring classes, who comprise
nineteen twentieths of the depositors. The
cashier, Mr. Spencer, says in his return for
the month";
Notwithstanding the holiday season commenced in
December, and many compelled to drawson their
savings for support, ninetythree (93) accounts
have been opened, and $4,000 gained in deposits dur
ing the month.
The advantages of bank to the laboring classes
have been fully shown by the experience of this
winter. Many, before they tried the Savings Bank,
spent all their earnings, and when winter and no
work came, they had nothing to fall back upon.
We anticipate that example and experience will
largely increase our depositors when the people shall
have fairly got to work again.
The total amount of deposits at this branch
to December 31st, $5S, 1873 So total amount
due depositors, S85, AIS 81.
The Democratic press throughout the South
are constantly alleging that the colored people
are thriftless and improvident as class. As
figures don't lie-you may draw your own in
