nrAzzrvI ON THE LABOR MOVEMENT

NTAZzlNI ON THE LABOR MOVEMENT.
The great Italian patriot, Mazzini, who
has just died, warns his countrymen
against the errors of the foreign Internal
tionale Society, and indicates the true policy
of success for the laboring men. He tells
the " Internationale" that if it would
achieve a true and beneicent growth it
must adopt new principles in place of de-
lusiye and destructive errors. He says;
"When upon searching history you will
find ideas which refer to the first known
periods Of humanity, which have lived
with it from epoch to epoch, Transforming
themselves always, but always and every
where remaining in their essence, insepara-
BILE from society and stronger than other
ideas which belong to single people and
peculiar age, and in questioning in your
better moments Of love, of holy suffering,
Of devotion to your general good, your
conscience you will perceive to be within
an echo of those ideas transmitted through
thousands of ages; then those ideas are
substantially true and innate in humanity.
whose progress they must also follow.
You can and must modify them amelio-
rate their development and application, not
abolish them. God, the immortality of
life, your country, your duty, the moral
law which is alone sovereign, your family,
property, liberty, and association are
among those ideas.
"Do not deyiate from that programme.
do not remove yourself from those among
your brothers who recognize these your
rights, and labor to level the path leading
to the institutions that can recognize and
preserve them. He who would call you
elsewhere is unable to help you.
Educate and instruct yourselves as
much as possible. Never separate your
selves from the fortunes of your country,
but cause your brotherhood to adopt every
enterprise tending to make it still more free
and great. Increase your associations
form clubs, and connect through them me-
chancs and farmers, uniting the cities with
the villages and country towns. Labor to
create cooperative societies in every quar-
ter. You may confide in the result"
There is good sense and sound doctrine
in this for our American Labor Reform
ers," as well as for italian members of the
''Internationale.

and of the society's connection with it, as
well as the motive which brought its mem

The style of the address is facile and hap

EX-NIaYOR CIIAU0oS

The very considerable space which we
give to-day to the " statement of facts"
made by Ex-NIayor Chahoon, places us I'M
der the necessity of limiting somewhat our
usual editorial and general news matter.
We commend the address of the late May
or of our city to the perusal of all fair,
candid ard impartial minds. The spirit in
which it is written is an equable one, and
if what he says is true, he has made out a
most damaging case for those who have
pursued him to the "bitter end" We are
not in position, from any personal know
ledge of our own, to decide on the
merits or dement's Of the case, but we are
for giving every man fair hearing Of his
grievances when they become such as the
public may have an interest in perusing,
When great public wrong has been done
to citizen, no matter by whom or how
done, it is the duty Of the public press tc
give the injured party hearing. Right ant
wrong are endlessly at jar always, bulright
and justice will never shrink from public
scrutiny.

REINFORCEMENT

The alley IHgtn'd1 IS entitled to the
thanks of all fair minded men in denounc-
ing, as it does, the recent attempt of our
Legislature to gerrymander one or two
Congressional districts out of their proper
representation in the national councils.
The conservative" caucus, so-called, has
already "caught it'' from more than one
Conservative journal, for thus seeking to
deprive the minority party of its fair and
just representation in the Federal Congress.
The TaHey Tayieid,' says:
"The district of which Augusta is a part
is composed of the following counties =
Augusta, Rockingham, Highland, Bath,
Allegheny, Shenandoah, Page, Albemarle,
Greene, Goochland and FluYanna. 1t is
kind of shoe-string district, reaching from
the Shenandoah mountains nearly to Rich
mond, at least two hundred miles in length.
1t throws Hons. John Z. Harris and r. T.
w. Duke, the representatives in Congress
from the Augusta and Albemarle districts,
'gerrymaudering" for political purposes.
ness. 1t is not fair, nor will it meet the
have their rights, and they should be re-
spected. The district is not compact"
as the constitution requires, nor is
the popular basis in accordance
with the ratio of representation
mitted blunder and very transparent
wrong in throwing together counties which
| are so diverse in their interests and separate
thof, of hY ,a1y
ing the district compact " and throwing
into each, as near as possible, 133, 900 popu-
lation, the Republican party would likely
secure one or more Congressman than by
the present unnatural arrangement, then
they are entitled to them. We have no
sympathy with this sort of political Jug
glery, and we are of the opinion that it will
work 10 good. Wcwill have sectional feel
ing to encounter in every Congressional cleo
ton. We are very sure, if we retain our
present views, that we will never go into a
convention for the nomination of candidate
so long as this district remains as it is.
This is decidedly plain language, but it is
no more out-spoken than that of many of
the Conservative members in the Legisla-
ture who tried to modify the action of the
caucus when the bill came up for consider
alton in the House. The Augusta District
is not the only one in which this attempt to
swinde the minority out of their rights of
representation, was effected by the re-
apportionment bill. But this iniquity
will ultimately right itself when the true
conservative element of the State comes to
see the incongruous and wholly unnatural
alliance it now holds with the Democracy.
We appeal to this conservative element as
the one of substantial power in Virginia,
to ultimately right this reapportionment
wrong. 1t is in their power to do it, if
they will only name their men, and
cooperate with us in giving expression to
the true public sentiment of the State.
We make the tender of cooperation and
hearty sympathy in the work, and can
see how very effectively it can be done.
Conservatism and Democracy is no ma
tural alliance. 1t is one that soon must
cease, and the sooner it ceases the better.
