ANTfpoTE FOR OID1UM ON GRAPE VINES.
- NJ. Ghatot, Frenchman, recommends
common table salt as an antidote for oidium,
or grape vine disease. He says that his vines
and grapes were covered for some weeks with
fungus-like substance, and that last spring
he sprinkled handful of salt about the roots
of each vine. The effect was marvellous, the
vines grew luxuriantly, aud bore an abun,
dance of grapes entirely free from the fungus
of oidium

Hon. c.. C. Walker is the favorite of a

it would probably be- well to take this true

never yet hesitated when called upon to

Editors Of The Dispatch:

Editors Of The Dispatch:
i have noticed that your paper has taken
great interest in the protection and culture
Of jsh. Hence this note. Unfortunately
the bill Just passed is fatally defective so far
as James river il concerned. The act only
applies to that portion Of the stream ABOVE
tide-,edter. Now, it is fact that the traps
at the foot of the falls, which do the most
damage, are all In tide-watcr. High-tide on
the Richmond side reaches beyond the Dan
vile Railroad bridge to Kitchen island, and
on the Manchester side to Belcher's island,
and runs abreast OF Sharp's island.
1t IL safe to say that within this district
there are fifty traps. They are so thick on
the Manchester side that there is no place
at ordinary water where the fish can find
five feet OF clear water to pass up the stream.
The blockade is complete; and yet all these
traps are in tide-water. In the low water,
in July and August, when the young shad
and herring 60 out to sea, these traps 40
incalcuIable damage. [ have heard old
fishermen say that at times "pecks OF
young shad and herring can be seen dried
up on these traps. Another defect In the
law is that inasmuch as the iurisdictions OF
Richmond and ';Henrico county extend to
low-water on this side OF the river, the as
the river is lost. and many offenders will SO
UNPUBLISHED.
The first defect could be cured by insert
ing in the first section after the words
above tide-water" the words cor within
half mile below the head OF high tide"
The second can be cured by inserting in the
seventh section after the words "violation
of this act" the words I" and each Of the
county and corporation courts of this Com
monwealth OF counties and corporations
bordering on such streams or waters shall
have jurisdiction for the enforcement Of the
provisions of this act in End upon the whole
Of the said streams or waters, and offenders
against the provisions OF this act may be
prosecuted in the courts of any county OF
corporation bordering upon and opposite to
the streams or waters in which the offences
NAV be committed" Is it too late to have
f. ese defects remedied? Ii not, | hope you
will use your very potent influence to have
the bill amended. MANCHESTER.

The Right Doctrine.

We wish to call President HArEs's atten-
ton to the foundation-stone OF this and all
other republics that are worthy to be called
republics.
II is the prime condition of republican
government that the majority shall be able
to enforce its right to rule. II it is Motif
it lacks the intelligence, the courage, the
scli-reliance--it must wait until it acquires
them. The people Of the country have al
ways felt this, and they are committed to it
as general rule. Under the circumstances
at the close Of the war they consented to q
departure from the principle for a time.
They consented to undertake the guardian
ship Of the governments of the weak ma
ioriies in the southern States. That de-
parture from normal conditions has been
continued as long as seems wise or tolera-
bic. 1t must now cease. The nation will
not longer consent to it. To continue
in it will hazard Yastcr interests. II
we could divest ourselves of personal
symDathies and political prejudices in
the premises weshould all acknowledge the
wisdom OF ceasing to support by the army
State governments which cannot maintain
themselves. The Republican party must
take this position, or it must give way to
another lpartyl. The departure from nor
NAL principles was perhaps wise as teln-
porary measure under exceptional condi-
tons, but there is no, further advantage to
be gained by it, not even for the negro, in
large and long view OF his prospects.

THE FLORIDA ELECTORAL CASE AT LAW
Washington, March 30.-Two OF the Florida
Republican electors were at the White
House to-day on n peculiar errand. It will be
remembered that one OF the circuit courts OF
Florida issued a manddmuS to the Return
ing Board to issue certificates to the Demo
cratic electors. The case was appealed to
the Supreme Court OF the State, aud will
come up for trial in few days. The cleo
tors who called at the White House to-day
desired to know if the President would
give them pecuniary assistance to defend
their cause. The President did not seem
to think he had anything to do with the
matter, and referred them to William E..
Chandler, with whom they had an inter-
view tonight. That gentleman said if he
gave anything he must know who was re-
sponsible for the spending OF it.-SpeciaL
