Mr.. Speaker, let us defeat this bill; let US
preserve the old Commonwealth in all her
integrity and with all her capacities and
facilities for future usefulness, and the time
will come when her sons may not only
point to her as great in memories, but also
in all the elements of material wealth and
prosperity.
TIE SOUTHWEST RESPONDS TO TIDE-wATER.
MIR. j. II. A. SMITH followed Mr.. Segar in
denunciation OF the ambitious, soulless
plans of the Pennsylvania Central, and elo-
quently appealed to the members Of the
Legislature not to hesitate to cast their
votes against the bill, and thus prevent
Virginia from falling under The domination
of foreign railroads. s.
s.@ POPHAM SPRIGHTLY.
Mr.. PoPHAM made very spirited speech,
going over the ground taken by Dir. Mat.
thew, of Loudoun, and denying that the
Pennsylvania Central had any political
schemes in view.

Sioux CITY last winter had an Old Maids

Almost everybody has heard Of the bool
called Ginr's Baby. 1t made quite hit al
home in England. The following is an in
telligible account of it. 1t was written by
Saratoga correspondent of the New York
Commercial. A lady tells him what the
book is-as follows:
"Who is Ginx,'
"GinX was tue father Of the thirteenth
baby. G.nX was poor, and becoming i'm.
patient at Mrs. GinX's increasing babies.
after she had had the twelfth, declared that
he would throw the thirteenth off of West
minister Bridge"
Ibid he do it,"
mo, but he discovered the infant, after
Mrs. GinN had succeeded in hiding it away
for several days-seized it, and started for
the bridge, and
"Threw it I'M"
"No, the police stopped him. Ginx ex-
postulated {; said he didn't want the --
baby that he had twelve already at home;
that he was poor man, and had no use for
the thirteenth Ginx. Then Catholic nun
came along, and offered TO feed it and save
Its life."
"And never bring it back9' asked
GinX.
"Never!'
"He's yours-to have and to hold
And then GinX ran back to his vile ano
wretched twelve children, happy man.
"What them"
"Then," said she, 'the tug commenced
The baby was baptized. Ginx's vile nae

Father Cozan wanted to-and d1d-maks

:. "Then the Protestant clergy got hold Of
the scandal. The Protestant papers rioted
over the matter. The CLERGY went to q
LAWYER. The Catholics have forcibly de.
strained Protestant baby, and are trying
to make Catholic Of him-what shall we
do?' they asked"
"Brihg an action said lawyer NEEDLE,
'an action Of habeas corpus
"The case went to court. Thousands of
pounds were spent. The newspapers talked
about the sGiDx-Baby Case sGinx's-
Baby Funds were collected, the LAWYERS
took the money, and the baby was surren-
dered to the Protestants. Soon the baby
fund was exhausted; Its nurse in vain de-
manded pay for nursing him, and finally
one day she left the poor baby on club
house doorstep to starve. Another humane
religious society took 1t after the almshonses
had said they would not have 1t. Another
religious controversy ensued. The baby
was ALWAYS poor, nall starved, and ne
elected, while everybody was fighting over
his religion"
"What became Of him?"
"Well, after fifteen years of kicks, Of
cold neglect, of ignorance, and starvation
