RICHMOND, VA, THURSDAY EVENING JUNE. g. 1877

MIR. PITT IN A FROLIC.--Great men
need to unbend and have good frolic, as
well as other people. The younger Will
liam Pitt was noted for dignity of person
and for power of overawing associates.
But he could play as well as rule.
One day hewas in a high frolic with Lady
Hester Stanhope, James Stanhope, and
William Napier. They were struggling to
hold him down and blacken his face with
burnt cork, when servant announced that
Lords Castlereagh and Liverpool, two of
his associates in the Cabinet, had called on
business. He said coolly, "Let them wait
in the outer roem," and went on with the
sport. But finding himself overmatched,
he said: "Stop, this won't do, i could easi-
ly beat you all, but we mustn't keep these
grandees waiting any longer" -
Ills associates washed his face, hid the
basin behind the sofa, and the grandees
were ushered in. The manner of Mr.. Pitt
suddenly changed. His tall, ungainly,
bony figure seemed to grow up to the cell
ing, his head thrown back, his eyes fixed
immovably in one position, as if gazing
into the heavens, and totally regardless Of
the two bending figures before him. He
was cold and naughty they, humble and
suppliant. In few minutes, Mr.. Pitt
bowed them out, and then, turning round
with hearty laugh, caught up cushion
and commenced the battle again.-Er.

THE Dispatch parades the name of Gen.
Fitzpatrick as one of the army officers who
enlisted under the banner" Anything to
beat Grant'-and gives him and his corres-
pondents hearty welcome.
What marvellous changes community
of hate will bring about! In March, 1864,
the following language occurs in the adj
dress of the General Assembly of Virginia
to the soldiers of Virginia:
"Within few days past an expedition
has been projected, and an abortive attempt
made to carry into execution, with minute
instructions emanating las we have reason
to believe) from the government at WASH
ington, to sack and fire the city of Rich
mond, and in the darkness of the night con-
sign its inhabitants, without moments
warning, to flames and to death. For this
purpose special "burning party" was or
ganized, provided with implements of de-
struction, and orders to carry into execu-
ton their fell designs. Amid its blazing
ruins the released prisoners from "Belle
Isle'' and "the Libbyo were to unite with
the bands of Dahlgreen and KILPATRICK,
in dealing out death and slaughter upon un-
offending and peaceful citizens, and inaict-
ing outrages upon pure and unprotected
women more horrible than DEATH"
That Fitzpatrick, as citizen, has an un-
questioned right to entertain and express
his individual opinion for or against any
candidate for the Presidency, no one will
deny; but our Greeley champions in Vir-
ginia seem to be unfortunate in selebting
for encomum in 1872, the men they so re-
Gently exhausted adjectives to abuse. In
justice to Fitzpatrick, it should be stated
that the horrible designs imputed to him,
in the address from which we quote, were
simply the wild assertions of men who
wrote for effect, regardless of truth.

THE "LITTLE NELL."-We inadver-
tently failed to mention the fact that Eve
local" made very pleasant trip ON the
" raging canawl" yesterday afternoon,
through the courtesy of the managers, in
the Little Nell," neat little craft belong
ing 10 the new Peoples Line of excursion
boats. We glided swiftly and safely up to
the pump house, and found the trip most
delightful one. The code of laws govern
ing the commerce of the canal, unwritten,
for aught we know, is nevertheless practi-
cal, comprehensive, and very much to the
point. Each vessel, recognizing time
honored custom as we'll as law, keeps to
the right, the line of the vessel in the right
being "sunk," and the vessel to the left
passing over it. 1t is the duty of the boats
lying at shore, on either side, to "pole" the
line OF passing vessel thus: on the APP
proach of boat, one end of long pole is
run out to the shore from the stationary
vessel, and the line by which the moving
boat is drawn is thus elevated and passed
over the former. There is a system OF
horn signals and vocal "hegh" in vogue
upon the canawl, which are, as yet, scarce
ly understood by us; but after we have
enjoyed few more rides in the light and
graceful pleasure boats. we may learn and
report their significance.

VISIT TO PETERsBURG.-The delegates
to the International Typographical Union,
together with many members of the
Richmond Union, members of the Rich
mond press, and other invited guests
left for Petersburg by the eight O'Clock
train this morning, and will spend the
day in the Cockade City, returning al
five O'Clock this afternoon. The party
ty were to be received by the Petersburg
typos and treated to pleasant drives III and
around the city, and to an elegant banquet
at Jarratt's celebrated hotel. These festivi-
ties, we have no doubt, were highly enjoy
ed by the visitors. The Petersburgers are
cordial and hospitable people, and never dc
things by halves, and we are sure did the
handsome thing to-day.

ODD FELLOWS CELEBRATIoN.-The
Grand United Order of Odd Fellows paraded
to-day, as advertised in our columns. The
appearance of the members, their regalia,
and orderly marching were eminently cred
liable, and indicate that the Order is in a
tlourishing condition, and that careful cir
cumspection is exercised in receiving ap-
plications for admission to the different
Lodges. The procession was accompanied
by two bands of music, and attracted much
and commendatory notice. The expected
visiting Lodge, from Williamsburg, did moi
arrive. The weather is favorable, and we
hope the picnic reunion will prove an en-
joyable occasion.

EXCURSION TO WEST POINT--By in
vltation, we accompanied Co. G., Captain
Kellam, to West Point on yesterday. The
party, numbering about five hundred, left
the York River depot at u O'Clock, and af-
ter delightful ride of few hours, with
nothing to mar its pleasure save the loss of
a few hats, zone of which was in our pos
session when we left the city, we arrived at
the Point. We believe all with one ex-
ception) made their way at once to the
Huntington House, where the exception
soon joined them. We found Mr.. E. w.
Massey, the hospitable host, fully prepared
to receive us.
The amusements were various, such as
fishing, boating, sailing, dancing, and ice
creaneing, we believe the two latter were
the most INDUCED in, certainly by the la
dies. At twelve and half O'Clock dinner
was announced. We will only mention the
fact that we had turtle soap, fish, crabs and
oysters in various styles, and saw none too
fastidious to eat them, or anything that the
tables contained. After dinner dancing was
resumed until the hour of 2 O'Clock, at
which time Co. G. was ordered to fall in
for target practice. Sergeant c. j. Brown,
having made the best shot, was declared the
winner of the medal, which was presented
to him, on the part of the company, by G..
Darlington Cabell, Esq.,, in an exceedingly
unique and appropriate epeech.
Dancing was again INDUCED in until the
whistle informed US that our time sup.
All got aboard and we were hurried to
the city, which we reached about 81 o'clock.
There was but one expression OF opinion
that we heard and that was pleasure. We
are pleased to say that it was also success
financially. Capt. McCann's military band
accompanied the excursionists, and enliven-
ed the entire day with sweet and appropri-
ate music.
