GARRETT BLOCKS THE WAY.

The question as to what shall be done
with that immense and very valuable water
power and property at Harper's Ferry is
being discussed by several Of our Virginia
contemporaries. They do not however,
seem to understand the question in all its
bearings. Mr.. John W. Garrett, if we
are rightly informed, has thrown legal
stumbling-block in the way of any private
company disposed to take hold of the prop
erty and utilize 1t for manufacturing and
commercial purposes. It usedt to be a com
mon saying here in Washington, when any
new railroad enterprise was suggested,
that '.Mr. John W. Garrett is in the way"
And he seems 'to be in the way" still.
There is not doubt that if this Harper's
Ferry property were in the hands of an
enterprising private company, with sufi-
cient capital TO properly develop it for
manufacturing purposes, 1t could be made
of immense benefit to Washington. In
deed, it might be made to bear the same
commercial and financial relations to Wash
ington, now that we have the Metropoli-
tan railroad, that Lowell and Lawrence do
to Boston. We have seen the letters of
several Northern manufacturers who have,
within few months, made applications to
parties here for water-power privileges at
Harrer's Ferry. In each instance the OBJ
iect of seeking change of location further
South was said to be hope Of securing q
better climate and superior commercial and
mineral advantages.
! As a central location, in close proximity
to raw material Of all kinds, and within
access by rail with all the great markets OF
the North, West and South, Harper's
Ferry is unsurpassed; while as 8 water
power it has no superior in the country.
A Cincinnati paper, which affects to know
everything, says it is a reflection on the
enterprise Of Virginians that the property
at Harpers Ferry is allowed to remain as
it is. 1t forgets that "Mr. John W. Gar
rett blocks the way" One Of our Vir.
rinis contemporaries makes the most sensi-
bic and practical suggestion we have seen.
It is that the Government take the property
back, and as proof Of its confidence in the
South restore the buildings, and again
utilize it as an srmory and arsenal, filed
with busy mechanics. There is real
business ring about that idea, and we
heartily second it. The West has Rock
Island; the North, Springfield. Why
should not the South have Harpsr's Ferry
and derive equal profits from itf Thepeo-
pc of Maryland, of Virginia, West Viz
ginia and the Carolinas have an important
interest in this matter, and should give

No act could more clearly show the des-
perate character Of the Democratic party
and its unfitness to be entrusted with power
in Republican form Of government than
the recent action of the Governor and
Council in New Hampshire, supported, as
it seems to be. by the leading party influ-
ences of the State.
By the constitution and laws of the State
1t is made the duty Of the Governor and
Council to examine the votes returned from
the several towns in the Senatorial and
Congressional districts, and ascertain who
"Gppear to hGOe been elected" and notify
such by giving to them certificate of the
fact. In the performance of this duty the
Governor and Council recently assembled
at Concord and examined the votes cast fer

JEFF DAVIS EBW.FoUND LOYALTY.

While the Democratic press is gloating
over the recent address of JEFF Davis, at
Galveston, Texas, and Boosting of his re-
turn to loyalty, it may not be amiss to re-
produce the following extract from his re-
marks before the Southern Historical So
ciety in 1873:
1 am most happy to know the cause for
which we have convened. Much time mas
passed away; many of the participants nave
been called to their fathers. 1t is hard ior
those whose hearts were in the cause to think
of those days without feeling their mother
softHess coming to their eyes. We have oeen
Cheated rather than conquered, and could we
have foreseen the results Of the surrender we
would have been free to-day. The time mas
come for us to indicate the truth for the sake
of the unrecorded dead who fought for truth
and died in a patriotic cause. These scraps Oh
history do US Injustice. We Eust collect ma
terisl for the future historian. 1t may have
been well to wait until passion and feeling
should subside, but we should delay no longer.
Do we not see decadence in all that makes q
people great and happyl Therefore the nlgner
duty on US. have received letter from
gentleman in Massachusetts, in which ne
wrote: "Our people owe you debt OF gratl-
tude for maintaining those principles OF COLI
stitutional liberty on which the safety Oh tue
country depends, and which would nave 9een
lost SIGHT Of but for your struggle" Ladies,
l have often said in you was my greatest hope
for the future of our country. l have never
seen Southern woman who had been recon
structed. The men of this day may yield the
principles for which they commended, but the
children who succeed them will cherish ana
perpetuRte them,

THE Southern Home, edited by General
D. H. Hill, of Confederate fame, at Char
lOtte, North Carolina, is described by the
Waterloo EUening Register as "the most
rampant rebel sheet and the worst enc
s'my of the South" According to the
same authority, THE NATIONAL REPUBLI-
CAN is the most radical Republican jour-
nal in the land" Let it be recorded. We
believe, however, that the Southern ex-
tremists respect this journal more on &C
count of its intrepid advocacy of consist
ent policy than they would if it were con-
Quoted on..the wishy-washy, no-policy sys-
tenn which illustrates the management of

more attention to it than they do. To the
Government that property, with its valua-
BILE water-power, is worth millions Of dol
lars. All the foundations are there unin-
jured. Many of the wheels and ground
improvements are in q good state OF
preservation. The foundry, rolling mills
and FORCES could all be restored in very
short time and at small cost. Both mate
rial and labor are at hand, and very cheap.
A new dam, built of huge blocks of black
marble, stretches more than half way
across the river. This dam is one Of the
most substantial pieces of masonry in the
country, and cost the Government more
than ninety thousand dollars. In short, it
is estimated that if the same ground i'm
provements" had to be put in to-day they
would cost the Government atleast four
millions of dollars. Shall property 80
valuable thus be allowed to remain idle
because one man, in his caprice, chooses
to throw a cloud over the titleH

THE EDITOR of the Baltimore Gazette
has been cited before the grand jury of that
county to tel what he knows about the eK-
istence of q burglars agency in that city.
He should send for his sub-detective in
Washington Immediately. The truth is,
however, that in addition to the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad, Baltimore enjoys the
proud distinction Of possessing a class of
citizens who act as go-betweens for rob-
bers and their victims. As soon as bank
has been robbed in any part of the country
an attorney is sent to Baltimore to compro-
mise with the burglars. The attorney
rarely fails, as the Monumental City is the
middle ground on which, as we have said,
the thieves and the agents of their victims
meet under q flag of truce. No wonder
that Baltimore is Democratic city.
