VIRGINIA LEAF.-There does not seem to
be any great change in the leaf market
since we last wrote. Generally, however,
there has been decline established on the
Virginia g breaks" from the extreme high
figures that recently ruled there. Leaf has
como in pretty freely, but it has chiefly
farmers and the negroes, and being Gull
cannot be justly taken as fair speci-
men of the new crop. To offset this
untavorable first impressions, we have
the testimony OF those who have travelled
extensively through the largest tobacco
producing counties of Southern Virginia
and North Carolina, such as Pittsylvania,
port the larger crops that have not yet
made their appearance rs of unusual eX-
cellcnee. Especially is the proportion of
fine brights very large. We also learn from
the same authority that the manufacturers
in the interior have already been through
the counties named, and purchased freely
such crops as suited their purposes. These
manufacturers generally propose TO enlarge
their operations during the present season;
and this fact, combined with similar dis
position on the part of the owners of the
new factories recently established ut the
West, will probably make the inquiry for
leaf brisk throughout the season at relnu-
nerative rates, although the supply may be
abundant. While, therefore, we cannot
expect prices to rule very high, any very
great fall is equally improbable, as the large
crop will prevent the one, and the increased
demand all over the country the other
Neao York Tobacco Leaf.

THE MAHoNE-LYoN AFFRAY-The Par
ties Fined and Observation-Disclosures
morning at the Police Court Justice White
presiding General Malone and Mr.. John
A. Lyon, the parties implicated in the
Franklin-street disturbance of the peace,
appeared, the former by counsel and the
latter in person, to answer for their offence
against the laws. Mr.. Lyon was repre-
sented by General Bradley T. johnson and
Major B. III. Nash, and General Malone by
Judge W. w. Crump.
Judge Crump explained to the court that
General Mahone's failure to appear in
person was occasioned by sickness. He
Gen. Mahone) had passed very unpleasant
night, and his presence not being absolute
ly necessary, it was thought best that he
should remain in his room. The Judge
added that the Generals i'll health was in
rcncontre with Mr.. Lyon. e
Major Nash here said that Gen. Mahone's
attendance was not at all necessary.
Justice White: Unless the other gentle
man objects, his representation by counsel
will be considered sufficient.
Judge Crump, resumlng, said this matter
could be very easily settled without any
examination of witnesses. His client was
perfectly willing to admit that there had
been casual meeting and exchange OF
blows. 1t was for his Honor, the Justice,
to decide whether the parties should be
fined, or required to give security to keep
the peace, or both.
Gen. johnson, on behalf of Mr.. Lyon,
spoke to the same effect. A plea OF nolO
contendere would be entered.
Justice White, after reference to the au-
thorities, announced that the parties would
each be required to pay fine of $40.
Mr.. r. p. Boiling then advanced the
funds for Gen. Malone, and Mr.. Lyon
handed in $50 on his own account, and the
parties were discharged.

ATTEMPT to divide old Chesterfield, which
has been for few days agitated, has proved
a failure. At least three-fourths of the
county are opposed to any agitation on the
subject:
Town ORp1sANcEs.-For the benefit of
those who never see the town ordinances,
we rel. ort that burials within the town are
punishable by fine of $40, and that instead
of April 1st, on or before August 1st the
tax must be paid on dogs and goats. Those
interested will please make note.
MA1Ls.-The northern mail arrives at 1880
AM. and 2:41 2. NJ, and leaves at 1910
and 4P.M. The southern mail arrives at
12:l5 and leaves at 2:4 z. N.
r. NOT DEAD.-It having been reported that
Wash, Hicks, very notorio us negro of
Manchester, was dead, we desire to say on
undoubted authority that ne "still lives"
and is engaged in heaying carpets at the
penitentiary.
SCHOOL MATTERs.-The regular meeting
of the county board will take place on on
Tuesday, April 18th, when the board will
decide on textbooks. 1t Is expected that
full board will be present.

but Mr.. Gill receiving a majority of the
votes on the first ballot, his election was
declared unanimous.
There are now some thirty-tiye or forty
boys in the asylum, and applications for
admission are almost constantly being made
to the president. In view of the fact that
these are Richmond children, although the
asylum is situated just outside the city linn

application to the Board OF Education for q
teacher for the asylum. ..-....7.
