General Asa RodERs, second auditor, an
nounces in the Dispatch this morning that
the interest on the public debt Of Virginia
for july /, as prescribed by the act of March
13, 1873, will be paid at his office on ana
after the 1st of July next, and that the ster-
ling interest will be paid in London at the
same time by Messrs. BARRING BRoTHERs sS
Co., the agents OF the State.
By the act above referred to the First ana
Second Auditors and the Treasurer OF the
State were constituted a board to consider
and decide whether the unpaid balances OF
interest for january and July. 1872, AS pro-
vided by the act of March 10. 1872, shall ne
paid, and they have determined TO pay these
balances also on and after the 1st OF July
next.
1t is well for the holders OF stock which,
has not been funded to know that the ola
bond, OF certificates must he presented 10
the Second Auditor. that tile interest pald
them mag he stamped upon such stock.
1t is estimated that alter plying the july
1873 interest and the arrearaScs OF interest
of 1872 there will be money enough In the
Treasury on the 1st of January, 1874, to pay
the four per cent. interest which VIII then
have accrued, and leave a balance OF over
100000 for the current EXPENSES OF the
State Government. Allegiance. is made IN
this estimate for the payment in "taN-re-
ceivable coupons" of one-half of the public
revenue due in December next, while the
fact is that up to the present lime Il much
smaller proportion of the. revenue has been
thus paid. the holders Of large amounts OF
the bonds OF the Slate believing it TO tie bet
ter to take the folr cent. now rendered ana
the obligation Of the State for the remainder
payable hereafter.
This action Of the financial officers OF the
State and the certainty Of having ample re-
sources for the next January interest and 10
meet I'LL the expenses of the Government
must give greater value to our State bonds.
especially when it is remembered that his
favorable condition of our finances exists
without any increase Of taxation.

who is afraid Of mad dogs is afraid OF dogs

His dogs couldn't go mad. you know. Bal
timore has just had d sad experience on this
point-two deaths from the bite of one dog
and the american talks out IN meeting thus:
I'VE have not seen the paper recently
read by DIR. Phlpots before the British
Medical Association except such extracts as
appeared in recent article in the New York
World upon Mad Dogs; but it would
seem that his theory OF rabies is partially
confirmed by these cases. He says that the
traditional mad dog which runs over the
country, and raves and bites, and filings tue
foam from his mouth, is no mad dog ut all,
and he cannot communicate his rabies either
to bis own species or to man. This is Il
startling statement. and we think it ought
not to have been made unless supported 10y
the most incontrovcrtible facts. The dogs
which we dread are those which foam ut the
mouth and run from place TO place, snap
ping ut whatever comes in their way. DIR.
PhilpotS says that they have 4 dstemper
which cannot be communicated to man or
beast, and that they often recover. The dog
afflicted in this way cannot driIk on account
OF the muscular affection of the throat, but
he has no dread of water, and nus an intense
and Unsuitable thirst. He is terrifying
beast, but not dangerous one.
"rhe real mad dog, as DIR. Philpots
knows him, is a snllen animal, that lies still,
except when wafer is brought near him. and
then he goes into fit. He is not apt to tite
unless some one comes about him ana dis
turbs him. On account of the absence of the
violent conduct which is popua rly attributed
to mad dogs, the owner imasines that he is
merely sick, and has no felr of him. If he
attempts to fondle him, or put his hand on
him. he is pretty certain to be bitten. flour
readers will recall all the cases Of hydropho-
bin that they have seen themselves, or have
heard OF, they will find that in ali of them, or
at least II majority Of them, the dreadful
disease was communicated by q dog which
belonged to the premises, and which was
supposed to be sick. 1t was this sort of a
dog that bit MIR. Frey be and bis two garden
els. He was u young dog that had been
raised on the place, and it was supposed that
he was sullen and cross because he had been
tied. If any of our readers know Of acase
OF hy drophobia that resulted from the bite Of
a strange dog which was running about in a
sort of vicious rage we hope that they viii
communicated the fact to Us. II Dr. PhiIpots
is mistaken, he ought to be reluted by we'll
authenticated eases to the contrary"

WHEN TO Study THE MODERN l. ASsUAGEs.-
In commenting recently upon u published
letter of Professor JoYNEs's, VIC took the
ground that n child could learn to speak a
new language much Elore readily than an
adult. This opinion we find is that Of a dis
tinguished writer whose last work is re-
viewed In the New York Tribune of Tues.
day last. The work in question is "Hnner.
tons Intellectual Life," which, the reviewer
says, betrays the same refined taste. the
same familiarity with the choicest literature,
and the same quiet, uupretending wisdom
which gave such q delightful favor to the
previous works that have made the author a
favotite with awide circle Of arrreciative
readers F..
The author says: .s.
. As we grow older this facility of acqui-
sition gradually leaves us. NJ. PhilaIetc

The resisting power of the adult brain Is

Ter of the immature brain. A cnild hears Il
sound, and repeats it with perfect accuracy !;
man hears sound, and by way OF imita-
ton utters something altogether different,
being, nevertheless, persuaded that i. is ut

Children initiate well, but adults badly,
and the acquisition of laueuiges depends
mainly on imitation. The resisting
power OF adults is often sren very re-
| narkably in International marriages. In

much culture, or leisure, or disposition for
