The STATE DEBT The Richmond Wing,
speaking Of the newly elected Legislature, 10
which, it says, "there will be suficiency Of
ability, Intelligence and experience to compare
favorably with any Legislature We have had
for many years" also says that tho question
of the State debt will in all probability be the
chief subject of absorbing interest, and the
most difficult to determine with satisfaction to
all parties" The article concludes
eff there has ever been airy ground for fear
of reputation, we think we may safely say
there is none now. The people of Virginia will
be really represented by Legislature deter
mined in good faith to stand by the obligations
Of the State. But at the same time they would
be misrepresented by any man or measure look
ing to increase of the present rate of taxation
to pay more than for the present can b. paid
with taxes as they are. We have consistently
maintained from first to last, and We still main
tain, that the tine will soon come when Vir.
ginia will be as able as she is willing to meet the
full interest on her debt without embarrassment
or annoyance to her people. Until that time
shall have come, her creditors must be satisfied
to receive what she is able to pay, and with the
assurance she thus gives that rs her prosperity
increases her payments will increase with it,"

"PoLlTIcs AND MUD" is the beading of an
article in the Richmond Wing, in which the
editor says: 1--WE may be old-fashioned and
behind the times, but We certainly do not
like the practice so prevalent in politics, of
applying opprobrious epithets to all opponents.
Men equally honest may differ in political
opinions, as they do 10 religious tenets and in
matters pertaining to art, to social life, and to
business affairs. Really honest men tolerate
these differences. They know the sincerity of
their Own convictions, and accord equal sin
cerity to Others Bad men, mischievous and
selfish men, brutal men, who care not how they
carry their points, so they carry them, have
introduced into politics the barbarisms of which
we speak; and then commenting upon the now
too frequent practice, of some, Of ndulgipg in
personalities, the writer goes on to say: THE
true gentleman, is gentleman, place him
where you may. He who plays the gentleman
in the parlor and the ruf6an and the black
guard on the hustipgs, or 10 the press, or in
legislative bodies, is no gentleman at all. He
is pretender, sham, humbug. Nor do
We believe that those who bully and browbeat
gain anything BY SO doing. To times of excite
mont they may get some prominence and no.
torlety, but they do not attract the esteem of
the public. They make few friends and many
enemies. The highest character man can
have Is that of gentleman-and gentleman
shows himself 10 every relation and position in
which ne may be placed. He shows it in bis
language, his actions and his whole bearing.
1t is as impossible for a deuagogue to be
gentleman as it is for real gentleman to be
demagoaue.

little doubt that the ship struck on suukeu

any Of the passengers will be rescued, the loss
Of lives being about two hundred. Following
fast upon this disaster, comes the announce
ment that the steamship City of Waco, of the
New York and Galveston line, has been burned
of Galveston. The passengers numbering
twenty, escaped in boats with the officers and
crew from the burning ship, but owing to the
high sea no assistance could be rendered by
vessels lying in the vicinity. and the boats were
forced away from port and down the coast. a
steamtug was sent out to cruise along the
coast in search Of them, but up to ten O'Clock
last night no tidings had reached Galveston
concerning them.
