preserve its consistency by the repeal Of
the following act, passed ''to strengthen

1869: -..-.-
"Be IL enacted, dc, That in order to remove
any doubt as to the purpose Of the Govern
ment to discharge all It's obligations 10 the
public creditors and to settle conflicting ques-
tions and interpretations Of the law, by virtue
of which such obligations have been contracted,
II is hereby provided and declared that the
faith of the United States is solemnly pledged
to the payment in coin, or its equivalent, of all
the obligations of the United States, and of all
the interest-bearing obligations, except in cases
where the law authorizing the issue Of any
such obligations has expressly provided that
the same may be paid in lawful money, or in
other currency than in gold and silver, but
none Of the said interest-bearing obligations,
not already due, shall be redeemed or paid be-
fore maturity, unless at such times as the
United States notes shall be convertible into
coin at the option Of the holder, or unless at
such time bonds Of the United States, bearing
9 lower rate of interest than the bonds to be re.
deemed, can be sold at par In coin. And the
United States also solemnly pledges its faith to
make provision at the earliest practicable
period for the redemption of the United States
notes in coin."

FASHION PARAGRAPHS.

White pique VIII be but little worn this sum-
mer, but striped cambrics for early morning
house wear will be fashionable.
Jet is on every dress, mantle, fchu, fraise,
bonnet and veil seen this season, aud the trade
in It must be enormous.
Dark walnut medieval suits, relieved by soar
let, gold and ebony figures, are the newest ar
ticles In furniture. :
White barege win be worn this season in
both plain and striped figures for evening par
ties. 1t Is beautiful mstsrial.
Quaint little japanese teapots, whose ngii-
ness Is their chief communication, aside from
the fact that they are ire-proof, are popular
novelties for tea-drinking and tea parties.
Blue anil white striped suits Of American
percale, with soft, glazed finish, ere made with
sacoue and oyerskirt, and are both tasteful and
cheap morning dresses or for street wear.
Blue let is very expensive, bur spangles made
of n and used on black blonde are yelY efec-
tive and beautiful At night.
There is q suddenly revived fancy for trim

Aprons made of Swiss and valencienncs lace

Harriet Beecher Stowe has an orange orchard
which presents the strange whim Of refusing
to grow any but black orapges.y She attributes
this to the lack Of lime tn the sOil; but her

EXCITEMENT AT FALLS CHURCH OVER THE PROS.
PEcTIvE ESTABLISHMENT OF A DRTNKING
SALOON THERE.
FALLS CHURCH, May Is, 1874.
10 the Editor Of The National Republican
SIR: Mr.. John D. Brush, q pretty nearly
played out merchant in this place, turned his
wits to work out, 1t would appear, q more ap-
preciable condition of his sickly eIchequer by
renting q portion of his store building to one
Amos Fox, of Fairfax Courthouse, for the pur-
poses Of q grocery. This he did, according
to reports, despite condition placed In the first
instance in the contract for his store lot, and Al
terwards incorporated in his deed, that no liquor
should ever be sold on the premises. The facts
spread over the community like wildfre, and
many of the citizens became excited, indignant
and determined to do something, If pssible, TO
prevent the opening of the dram shop. The
understanding went forth from Individual TO
individual in the community, that meeting
was to be held on Saturday last to consider and
then to resolve what to do; and such meet
ing did convene at the Presbyterian church
on that evening. No one had coolly con-
sidered what was polite and proper to do, and
for that reason the elements Of the meeting
In their excited condition were rampant, discor-
dant, belligerent, and the result, therefore, was
as might be expected, Intellectual and impotent.
After much fuss and bluster, DR.. Graham In
troduced Q crude and rather brash resolution,
as quite natural, being the offspring Of the ex-
element and passion of the hour. 1t was
passed and signed by most Of those present.
Mr.. G. II. Burton introduced in letter-form q
request addressed to Amos Fox, to desist from
establishing the saloon. This was largely
signed. Mr.. Burton stated to the meeting that
action was imperative, for the saloon might be
opened on Monday morning, and he, therefore,
moved that George B. Ives and Benjamin
Shreve-one Presbyterian the other q Meth
odist-be committee to carry the demand to
Mr. Fox, at the Courthouse, early Sunday
morning. 1t was suggested that the matter
be delayed until Monday morning; but that
was not needed, and with the addition Of Bur-
ton to the committee, the motion was adopted.
Finally committee was appointed, consisting
Of DR.. Graham, Messrs. Burton, Ives, Shreve
and Dearing to prepare business for meeting
TO be held on Wednesday evening May 81, at
the NJ. Z church South.
Yesterday morning the freight train on the
W. and o. railroad left at the depot two casks
marked "A. Fox, supposed TO be whisky, and
another smaller one supposed to be brandy.
Considerable talk Of an exciting character took
place, I am told, at the depot among the
passengers TO taFe tho morning train down,

General Robert Fleming died at his residence
at Williamsport, Pa, on Saturday. He was
senior member of the Lycoming bar, member
of the constitutional convention OF 1sS7-'Ss,
and formerly member of the State Senate.
Intelligence was received in Utica, N. T.,
yesterday morning that Hon. Charles Fl. Doo-
little, judge of the Supreme Court of that
district, was lost overheard from the Abyssinia
on the 2lst ultimo., while en- route from New
York for Europe.

and likewise those who working their own dis
credit in the public Offices they hold, throw
contempt upon our national institutions"
Now, what does this valorous Captain
General propose to do with this numerous
class Of Cuban sympathizersi Why simply
to try them by drum-head court martialand
have them garrotted or shot. His decree
Is as follows:
Art. :. ..Ium the publication of this procla-
mstion the island of Cuba is declared In state
of siege.
Art. 2. Persons under indictment for rebel
lion, sedition and similar crimes against the
domestic peace and public order and security,
as well as their associates and accomplices aud
those charged with murder, shall DO tried by
an ordinary court-martial, which shall pass on
the sentences fixed by the military code.
Art. 8. Those charged with mansiaughter,
theft, iucendiary acts, smuggling, fraud or
counterfeiting against the State and other
lesser crimes, will continue to be tried by the
ordinary Judges, reserving to myself, however,
the right 70 refer. 1.-The same fortriaf to.a court
martial in cases justified by their importance
or when deemed expedient, 49,. ..y..-.
That is TO say, there is no law in Cuba,
but the mere will of his excellency. the
Captain General, who claims to be above all
law. The writer of this article then, if
found In Cuba by the Spanish officials,
would have as short shrift as traitor, a
murderer, q thief or an incendiary.
"Those who lend their pens to the
Cuban cause are included, in express terms,
in this proclamation, the blood thirsty char
acter of which is thus stamped. We repeat
it is an outrage upon the civilization of the
age, and have no hesitation in expressing
our opinion that a Government which is
compelled to resort to measures like these,
which contemplate the suppression of
thought as well as public discussion of
questions of vital concern to human pro-
gress, should itself be suppressed, and that
right speedily. These Spanish rulers,
ought they not to be regarded as little
different from enemies of the human racer
Why should we not as Americans manifest
our detestation of their acts by simply ac-
cording to the Republicans of Cuba our
recognition of their right to be free and in
dependent of such monstrous tyranny.

Mrs. BELvA A. LOCKWOOD petitions Con-
gress to enact "thAt no woman otherwise quail
ified shall be debarred from practice before
any United States court on account Of sex or
coverture." She complains that she has been
debarred from practice before the Court of
Claims because she is married, and If wives Of
judges should be allowed to practice before
their husbands the judgment might not be i'm
partial. She claims that the same pzinceple
would debar the sons and other blood relatives
Of courts from practicing before them. She
also attempts to strengthen her position by
the citation Of the married woman's separate
property act, which allows her to hold property
and sue and be sued in her own name. Judge
Mott evidently believes in the scriptursl doc
trine that marriage "makes the twain one
hesh," one in interest, sympathy, wealth and
power. II true marriage constitutes g union
Of hearts as well as hands, should It not also
be one of interests Perhaps Congress may
not see it in this light. If not, Mrs. Lockwood
will be made happy.
