of their constituents:
MIR. Duke introduced bill making an

relief of R. Raglan, which was read first

mittee of claims.

tion TO repeal an act approved March z,

BORROWING FROM PETER TO
PAY PAUL.

Let no one be misled by the plausible
pretext of offering 5000 per share for the
Richmond and Petersburg road. There is
nothing in it. Mr.. Pendleton and others,
In debate last night, showed concluslvely
that even If the bill were carried accepting
the proposition, it would only be taking
the money out of one pocket of the State
to put it in another; and already General
Mahone's road owes the State more than
it will ever pay. He has had quite enough.
The four millions he got last spring, which
may be looked upon as free gift, should
satisfy him. He ought to stop his Quix-
otc vagaries, running around the country,
buying up railroads from the State, with the
money the State has loaned or given him.
The public mrst not be deceived in regard
to that $200-per-share offer. 1t is moi
made with any intention of fulfilling it
and if it was, why it would only be rob.

the act entitled "An act to establish uni

United States.
Mr.. Braxton introduced bill to relieve
the legal aud political disabilities OF Joshua
HUI. phreys, of Fredericksburg, Virginia !;
which was read first and second time,
and referred to the Committee on the Ju-
dietary.
Our worthy Senator, John F. Lewis, is
always on the alert to protect the public
interest as we see by the following item
from the Globe:
Mr.. Lewis-I ask that by unanimous
consent the bill to authorize the Secretary
of the Treasury and the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue to determine the material, ,
devices, &c., of stamps required by the

WHAT MIR. WOOD SAID.

Hon. Walter W. Wood, of the House
of Delegates, in rising to personal expla-
nation last night, complained that the
STATE JOURNAL had misrepresented his
language in the debate of the morning.
According to Mr.. w., what he really said
was "that there was possibility that in
the confusion of debate such a bill might
pass but he did not believe that even the
Ellyson party themselves, if they could
prevent it, would allow any bill of that
nature to pass" which is quite clear.
We suppose the meaning is, that the
Ellyson party would not if they could help
it, allow any bill to pass, save that which
authorizes the sale of the States interest to
the nine gentlemen of Richmond. We
make the correction in justice to Mr.
Wood, and regret that we should have
Inadvertently misrepresented his language.

SPEECH OF EMPEROR WILLIAM.


Berlin, March 22:-The German Paria-
ment was opened yesterday by the En-
peror William, who in person delivered
speech from the throne. The Emperor
said: When l see the German Reichtag
for the first time after the glorious but try
Ing struggle h;ch Germany has victorious
ly prosecuted for her independence, / am
impelled first to give thanks to God for
the historic successes with which He has
blessed the faithful unity of the German
allies, the heroism and discipline Of the
armies and the devotion of the German
people. We have what our forefathers
struggled for, unity of Germany aud secu-
rity OF her frontiers. Our conviction of
future unity was yelled, but the ever-pres-
ent enthusiasm of the people rent the veil.
When the Fatherland was threatened, the
nation unanimously rose in her defense and
traced its firm will in indelible characters
on the battle-felds OF France to be uni
ted people. The spirit animating Ger
many pervades her culture and morals,
and the constitution of her armies guards
against the abuse of acquired powers
Independent Germany respects the in
dependence of others. This fiery or
deal of war through which we have
passed is reliable guaranty of Eu-
ropean peace. Powerful and self
reliant Germany bequeaths to you the reg
ulation of her own affairs as satisfactory
heritage. To the especial qualification of
Germany the conference at London, in
peaceful spirit, has achieved the work of
Cancellation. 1t is now the task of the
Reichstag to heal the wounds and confirm
the thanks of Fatherland to those who
have paid for the victory with their blood
and lives. Let the Reichstag cooperate
with the government in the constitutional
mission Of perfecting laws for the welfare
of the people. Constitutional arrange
ments contemplated by the government
involve the provisions Of the separate trea-
ties, made in November with the South
ern States, which will receive 10 new act
to be submitted to the Reichstag better
conformation and a more harmonious rem
dering.

Street Rencontre Between Well
known Parties.
GENERAL MAHoNE IS KNOCKED DOWN AND
HE SHOOTS AT HIS AssAILANT. ~

This afternoon about o'clock, General
William Malone and Captain John Lyon, Of
Petersburg, met at the corner of Fourteenth
and Franklin streets, opposite the Exchange
Hotel, and engaged in conversation relative
to railroad matters which soon assumed an
acrimonious tone.
During its continuance, Malone gave Lyon
the lie, and was struck by the latter in the face
near the eye. The General, who is of very
small physique, then undertook to cane Lyon,
but not succeeding to his satisfaction, pulled
out pistol and discharged it at Lyon-happily
without result. The police then came up and
arrested both parties.

we'll put up in local matter, and deserves
success so far as it is true to its policy, "of
promoting the material improvement of the
city and development of our State re-
sources" It's editor is young man of abili-
y, we believe; but he makes sad use of his
talents, we think, when he consecrates
them to the use of the Conservative party
nondescript unknown in the outside
world. A great statesman says, "Woe to
the land whose young men are conserva-
tive" Let our young friend rise above
mere partisanship to the study of events
and step over the narrow limit of sectional
prejudice. He will then make himself
largely useful to the public and lay the
foundation OF enduring fame.
