TPEASON I'M TIE CRADLE,

From the Lynchburg (Va.) Republican,
a misnomered Democratic sheet, we learn
that the Confederate flag" is still dis
played on the James river; but CORE
spondent of that paper explains that it
floats from the staff of boat ''rowed by
" two rebel boys and steered by an urchin
&" of four" We want no better evidence
than this of the insincerity of the professions
of a return to loyalty of particular indtVid-
uals interested in this foolish display of the
emblem of treason against the General
Government. When parents write COM
munications to the press, in which they
deliberately characterize their children as
'srebel boys" we cannot deny the charge
so frequently made that the people Of the
South, or rather certain classes of them,
still yenerate the 'lost cause" so much as
to seek to perpetuate the fallacious and
reasonable theories of the rebellion with
the rising generation. 1t is said that the
display of the flag in question will do no
harm, that it is a meaningless tribute to an
exploded and almost forgotten sentiment
and that it is not worthy of public attention
and discussion; but the truth is that four
year old boy, "whose curly head now rests
| in the folds of a tiny Confederate flag, "
may grow to be q man whose strong arm
and earnest desire may be devoted to the
success of that flag within the lifetime of
those who are now resting after the bloody
contest of our late civil war under quiet
belief that their victory over the rebelsof the
South was complete. GAS the twig is bent
the tree will grow" is an old, true,
and, to this case, a pertinent saying
It is so pertinent that we cannot fail to
find in it reason for the belief that the four
year-old, as well as his two rebel brothers,
have been taught to revere the doctrine OF
secession and 10 deride the sentiment Of true
LOYALTY. But the incident suggests some
things connected with the homesteads and
iresides of the Southern people. 1t shows
too plainly that in this case at least the
teachings of one freside are not in accord
with the public professions of its head. 1t
shows further determination on the part
of a representative of the so-called upper
class, the ''chivalry" of the State OF Nir'
ginia, not to abandon the theory of seces'
sion, and taken in connection with the well
defined opposition of the Gentleman
party'' of the State to the principles Of Re
pubiicanism, proves that design to con
tinue the rebellion, even in the cradles o
Virginia homes, is not altogether imprac

TgAT THIRD TERN.

The Hon. John NJ. Francis, our late min
ister to Greece, and the editor Of the Troy
Times, and Hon. Ellis h. Roberts, also an
able editor in the State ofNew York, and 9
distinguished member of Congress, seem to
be somewhat worried about the third-term
discussion. A short time ago Mr.. Francis
declared, in what he intended to be an onl-
cisl way, that President Grant did not mean
to run for third term, and now comes Mr..
Roberts with the announcement that "Gen.
Grant has in no way intimated to any per-
son that that he desires, OF would accept q
denomination for a third term as Presi-
"dent." The New York Herald thinks the
statement of Mr.. Roberts is very ingenious, "
and means that '1lr. Roberts, if not now
'fn favoi of q third term, would support
Grant if nominated, and would in the ma

pany for the reputation and goodwill OF
their stands every two or three years In the
shape of bonuses. These bonuses, ss the
Judge truthfully held, would, In the end
have come out of the consuming customers
of the dealers In the shape OF In
creased prices of meats and vegeta-
bias. But aside from this, the good
will of the stand, in all equity, is the
rightful property of the lessee. 1t is his
creation. The company can have no title
to it. 1t had nothing to do with the max
ing of it and should have no interest In It's
value. If the rental of the stalls is made
quate to the payment of a fair dividend
upon the property, then that Is a ques'ion
to be decided upon its merits, and the COM
pany will find little difficulty in obtaining
redress. Means for raising the rents or tx
ing them at fair rate are provided by the
charter. But the course pursued by the
company was onerous, unfair and oppres-
sive.
Just now we are especially jealous Of
everything smacking of monopoly, and it
appears that the market company would
consult its best interests by avoiding every
thing which might be construed into an at
tempt to influence or control the business
of their tenants. The true road Of pros
perity for the company is undoubtedly that
which will insure the success Of the dealers.
The interests of the two are identical when
viewed in g proper light. They should
therefore be pursued with harmony and
with particular care that neither trenches
upon the vested rights Of the other.
Private markets are so popular and nu-
merous that the permanent existence oi
public markets is mixed question. TheiI
utility is doubted by many, while the
marked success which has attended many
of the most notable private enterprises oi
this character. in Washington induces
considerable annual increase of them. II
is notorious that many of the best livers o,
the West End rarely send their caterers tc
a public market, choosing to rely upon such
men as Maillard. Febrey or Jordan for
their supplies:
These facts are mentioned as an admoni
ton to the grasping managers of the Centre
I market that they by no means have thi!
entire market business 'ln a sling, snC
that there may be danger of their splendid
property in buildings and franchise becom
ing an empty and proftless speculation. il
they are rash and foolish enough to strangl'
the goose that by proper nOurishment woulC
.'lay the golden egg"
