A Virginia Belle.

The "Powhatan estate" was for two
hundred years the property of the Mayo
family, and here, as the story goes,
John Howard Payne fell madly in love,
when in Richmond, with Miss Maria
Mayo {afterward Mrs. General Winheld
Scott, famous Richmond belle in her
day, and remarkable for her wit and in
telligence, as we'll as for her extraord-
mary beauty. Poor Payne laid his
heart at her feet, but she is said to have
toyed and coquetted with it, and then
to have flung it aside. When all hope
was abandoned, Payne went to Europe,
where he remained nearly twenty years,
and where he wrote his Home, SWEEP,

opera of "Clare,'' at London. This
traditional incident in the life of Payne
revives another land one still current in
Richmond) connected with General

How Indians Enjoy Summer.

buck aborigine takes more solid comfort

again the latter is found with a huge
burden of green tules, freshly cut, on
her back. This is her spring poplin;
her rose wood cradle; her marble-top

Increase in the Use of Drugs.

The following statistics show re-
markable increase in the supply of GER
tain favorite remedies since 1855: In
that year the central pharmaceutical
establishment of the Partisan Hospital
furnished two hundred and eighty-two
pounds of chloroform; in 1875 the
quantity had risen to six hundred and
sixteen pounds. The increase of chloral
from 1869 to 1875 was from ten pounds
to seven hundred and twenty pounds.
Bromide of potassium, six pounds in
1855, was one thousand six hundred
pounds in 1875. The progress of alco-
hol, considered as therapeutical agent,
is especially worthy of notice. Between
1865 and 1875 the consumption of alco-
ho) in the hospitals increased from one
thousand two hundred and seventy to
forty thousand quarts. Brandy does
not appear on the list until 1862, when
four quarts were supplied. In 1875 the
quantity had risen to four thousand
one hundred and eight quarts.

7 have heard asserted by member of the
state agricultural convention, who spoke
from personal experience.
DIR. james, the able commissioner, in
his report for the year 1864, saws
" Notwithstanding Georgia's advantages
of soil and climate, she annually imports
millions of dollars worth of the product
of the orchard and garden, while she
should not only raise all that she con-
sumes, but export more in value than she
now imports
With the labor and expense now
bestowed upon the culture of cotton,
which sells at the cost of production, our
farmers might secure millions of revenue
from the sale of fruit" He says further
hope by another winter to be able to
collect the statistics of the exports and
imports of the fruits and vegetables from
and into Georgia, and show our farmers
the vast sources of revenue which they
are neglecting by failing to produce thest
articles in sufficient quantity, at least, t.
supply home demand.
Now that cotton culture, under tn,
present system is Improbable, and
resort to mixed husbandry necessity,
hope, BY a thorough Investigation an,
publication of statistics and imports, t,
direct the attention of our farmers t,
these and other sources of farm revenu
previously neglected"

JOHN BRIGHT's VIEWS

In John Bright's address at the unveil-
ing of the Golden memorial statute, at
Bradford, he referred to the disturbances
in America as local instruction. He
said regarding the strike: 1T is one of
the most deplorable and discreditable
events that have ever happened in the
northern states, so far as my experience
goes Mr. Bright continued by saying
that he attributed these disturbances to
the evil effects produced by the policy of
the United States in blocking themselves
up from the rest of the commercial world
by onerous duties levied upon the very
class of manufactured articles which, if
competition were open, would prevent
labor from becoming unruly. He de
clared that the prostration of the great
iron industry was owing to the collapse
arising from the general impoverishmen,
OF capitalists, which, of itself, would ne
cessitate a great fall in wages. Mr..
Bright concluded by saying that he be
lieved that the excessive system of tariff
heretofore levied for the protection of
labor in America had received death
blow, and that nothing could avert a
change. Special Dis to Gin. Enquirer.

SALE OF rom PER CENT. BoNDS.

The success of the domestic sales of
the four per cent. bonds was a surprise
to the treasury officials, who, we are in
formed, had estimated that the amount
taken would be about twenty-five mil
lions, or less than half of the actual sub
scriptions. Atno time under the funding
law has large an amount of govern
ment bonds been disposed of in this
country or Europe in the space OF thirty
DAYS. Compared with the French sub
scriptiens to the indemnity bonds FIVE
years ago, the operation was insignifi-
can't in magnitude, and indicative, from
one point of view, of national poverty.
From another STANDPOINT this view would
be modified, as thg,sales were larger than
usual in the times Of comparative pros
perity following the war and preceding
the panic. If we omit the purchases in
exchange for five-twenties, and consider
only the purchases for original invest
ment of four per cent. security, we
find reasons to regard large investmentso of
this class by the masses OF the people, out
side Of eastern centers, as unsatisfactory
illustrations of the times. Why? Because
money is worth 7a9per cent. in the greater
portion of the country on commercial
paper and in railroad and municipal
bonds. The rejection of a promised
margin of three and five per cent. argues
a lack of confidence in the higher interest
investments. In the United States, so
vast is the reserve Of wealth to be devel-
oped. and 50 extensive is the demand for
active capital to bring it into available
merchandise value, that the normal
and healthful state is monetary activity
and its correlative, higher interest. The
opposite state of affairs, if a settled
condition, indicates a comparative sus-
pension of productive action, an inability
to produce proftably in many important
departments of enterprise. lack of con-
dence among capitalists, causing them to
look with GOODNESS or suspicion upon
commercial and industrial ventures, and
a narrowing of the circle of credit, which,
while shutting out everything not
strictly gilt-edged, at the same time

her only child, handsome, manly little
fellow, with her beauty in his flashing
ewes and dusky hair. She died while he
was vet quite young, and when the green
sod was placed over her grave, the boy
left the pleasant valley under the smiling

cheapeps money to the latter. 1t will
be along period before a people of the
Am rican temperament and with Ameri-
can surroundings will ever be at a loss to
employ their savings and profits, however
large, either in trade and industrial
enterprise, or at good interest, while
commerce and industry are in prospering
harmony, and nothing but business
depression can render acceptable the
four per cent. returns which would be
desirable in most of the older countries
in Europe.
Ia these remarks we consider only the
general value of money as actually fixed
in our business machinery, and not its
real proper value. 1t is worth only what
it is able to create, and by this creation
no one cannot doubt that its market and
real values in this country are and have
ever been widely separated. To sustain
the difference another strongly-marked
American characteristic, speculation, has
come into play. But to satisfy ones self
