military operations was given in re-
cent despatch of an English correspon-
dent with the Russian army at Kars.
He said that up to the time when the
siege Of Kars was raised the Russians
had thrown into it $4,000 bombs, the
cost Of which was 100000 roubles, or
about $1,200,000. 1t is estimated by q
British military writer that the cost
to Russia of the double war in Europe
and Asia Minor is considerably over one
million Of dollars per day. This sum
does not come out OF the pocket Of the
Gar, nor does the Sultan pay the ex-
penses Of the other side.

ST. PATRICK's DAY.

st. Patrick's Day, even il foreign
parades were perfectly in order, is
hardly fitting occasion to celebrate
Treland's nationality. The festival is q
religious one In it's origin; to religious
uses, then, it ought to be consecrated.
A nations holiday should be secular.
Patriots Of all creeds ought to be per-
mitted to participate in the celebration.
But Ii you raise the cry "For Faith and
Fatherland !''-and II you mean by
that faith your own creed exclusively
how are those who differ with you in
theology to JOIN In your politico-reli-
gious demonstration. They can do
nothing of the kind, and you evidently
do not wish them to do so, ALI things
considered, we think it would be wise
to abandon st. Patrick's Day parades.
We can lose nothing substantial in so
doing, even from an Irish national point
OF view; we shall have put away all
pretext for the celebration of Orange

Of good will and good sense, while our
own conception of self-respect will not
weaken, but on the contrary grow
stronger and more dignified, we shall
win for ourselves an increased respect

Gen. John Echols.

This distinguished Virginian paid our city
flying visit last week, reaching here on
the afternoon train Thursday and leaving
the next morning. He was the guest of
Colonel Holiday.
Although the time was short many of our
citizens called to pay their respects, and
thank General Echols for his superb man.
agement as the leader of the Holiday forces
in the State Convention.
Our people will not soon forget the splen-
did and successful service he rendered in
that memorable contest; nor will they be
slow to pay the debt when the opportunity
is afforded.
1t was a great disappointment that the
heavy rain storm of Thursday night inter-
fered with the sercnadc which had been ar
ranged in honor of his visit. There would
have been general turnout OF the bands, the
military and the citizens to greet him.
In this connec ten, will our Augusta
friends pardon a suggestion? The State has
need of such men as General Echols in the
next Legislature. His ripe experience, his
rare tact, sound Judgment and clear-sighted,
vigorous intellect, in conjunction with his
power as a speaker. eminently fit him for
leadership in a Legislative body, and would
be of incalculable value in the solution OF
the difficult financial problems which will
certainly come up next winter.
We hope Augusta will press him into the
public service. By doing so she will emit
tie herself to the thai ks of the State - YIN
chester Times.

Nomination of Col. Eubank.

The Senatorial Convention for the Lexing-
ton District, which met at Goshen on the
3lst ult., nominated Col. j. L. Eubank, OF
Bath, for reelection to that position. AS
this is a contest for principle and State
policy, and not men, it would be we'll enough
to make the test in Col. Eubank's case. He
sustains the Funding Bill legislation in all
its length and breadth, and consequently, in
that view, does not represent majority OF
his constituents. This is no time for caucus
dictation or the dominance of machine poll
tics. The will Of the people should be re-
Elected in the representatives selected. No
objection can be urged to Col. Eubank, per-
sonally. He is a gentleman above reproach.
The people, however, have right to be
heard in this election. The Funding Bill
was fastened upon them without their knowl-
edge or consent, and it is nothing more than
right that they should have the privilege OF
passing upon it now. The settlement the
next Legislature will make will be final. A
tax bill will be passed to meet the require
ments of the State under that settlement,
and as the people have to pay the taxes,
they ought to be consulted in reference to
if. There is to be no more dcfalcation in
interest, and no more robbery of the School
Fund.

Foreign News.

The correspondent OF the London DAILY
News, who visited the battle ground aftel
the desperate assault of the Turks near Peli-
sat, says they left very few wounded be.
hind, having carried them off despite the
terrible fire to which they were exposed
while retreating. The advanced redoubt SO
often taken and retaken was captured the
first time by the Turks by surprise.
The Grand Duke Nicholas designs resum-
ing the offensive, while the troops under the
Czarowltch remain on the defensive, con-
fronting Mehemet Ali Pasha. The Russian
reinforcements are pressing forward, and
provisions are being prepared for new Rus
sian corps of 10000 men now entering Rou-
mania.
The Turks have abandoned Sukum Kaleh,
which has been reoccupied by the Russians,
and the Abchasian coast is now clear OF
Turks. The instruction in the interior has
been suppressed.
The correspondent of the London Times
writing from Vienna says that the Turkish
operations in Bulgaria are :marred by GER
tain amount of jealousy existing between
Osman Pasha, Suleiman Pasha and Niche
met Ali Pasha, which prevents their work
ing in''cOncert.

Behind the Curtain.

The Richmond Wing of recent date, in
searching, ncisvc article on Virginia at
fairs, has this to say about the passage of the
Funding Bill:
We have heard II great deal about the
honor OF the State and the infamy OF repu-
diation. In our deliberate judgment the
only mode of maintaining the first and
escaping the last is by a proper readjustmenf
of the debt. Those who make such clamol'
should at least have cleaner hands them
selves. The Funding act. by which the
bondholders claim the right to intercept the
taxes, and if need be, to extinguish the ex-
istence OF the Commonwealth, how Gid it
become q law? The impression was wide
spread at the time Of its passage, that the;
night before the bill became law they OF.
their agent "a broker) occupied room at the
Exchange Hotel with his money-bags; and
on the same floor, few doors distant,
another room was occupied by some thirty
odd members of the Legislature that mes
senger passed between the two. and the re-
suit of the negotiations was that the mem
bers agreed to change their votes and sup
port the bill /! Certain it is that there was a
complete change of front by some thirty-odd
members during that single night. The con
viction was then, and it has been strength
ened by time, that some of these champions
of the incest honor did then and there polute
the pure stream of legislation, and by bribery
| and corruption procure the passage of this
infamous law. Possibly, the evidence may
still be in existence and within reach of JUS
tice, to elucidate this entire transaction. 7
With such a measure In hand, thus OBJ
tained-which goes to the sovereignty of the
State-in fact, paralyzes the most vital func-
ton and threatens its very existence-that
they and their attorneys should flaunt this
badge of their pollution in our faces. and
pirate about honor, why, it does try ones
patience and we confess that we feel dis
position to go to almost any extremes to
right our old Commonwealth, restore her
sovereignty, and vindicate her authority to
legslate, without let or hindrance, for the
best good Of all her people. I" Adjustment
| to suit the bondholders." indeed! Our
motto is war-unceasing war-war to the
knife, till our State is restored to her sover
eighty, and once more absolute master OF
herself and her destinies, without having to
consult bondholders, whose scrupulous sense
of honor was not too nice to tamper with the
integrity of the agents OF the Commonwealth.
