The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1878-04-15

The Lexington Gazette ought to have
seen that the Dispatch has advocated the
repair OF the canal SO as to restore naviga-
ton upon it. 1t is necessary for this city
and the people Of the James-River valley
that the canal should supply as far as posi-
BILE their wants until a railway takes its
place.
As to It's being permanent improvement
we have no faith in it. 1t cannot serve the
people and the State unless it is enlarged to
eighty or hundred feet wide and seven
feet deep from Richmond to the Ohio
river. Virginia can never make this i'm
provement. 1t is impossible that this can
be done save by the Federal Government.
We are not one of those who have the
slightest hope that the Federal Government
will ever build such canal from Richmond
to the Ohio river.

The REGISTER Company.

Messrs. MOFFETT and GRIMSLEY are get.
ting up company. whose business is to be
the popularization OF the MOFFETr-register
liauor-tax and the manufacture OF the reg
listers to supply the consequent demand for
them. We are sure that these gentlemen
experience the disadvantage Of the failure
to provide law at the last session OF the
Virginia Legislature to enforce the collec-
ton Of the register liquor-tax. They have
already heard read an extract from this
paper showing falllng-off in the tax col
lected in some of the towns Of Virginia,
owing to the failure to pass that law.
To DR.. MoFFETT especially we would say
that he can in no other way so emphatically
commend his register as by showing its sue
cess in collecting the hquor-tax. We say
with frankness and sincerity that DIR. MOI
FETT, after devising the most efficient means
of collecting public revenue to pay the pub
lie liabilities, united with party whose
steady and deliberate effort has been to d.
minish the resources OF the government,
and which has rejoiced in the public embar-
easements whenever it has been announced
that the Commonwealth was hard up.
The Doctor may differ with his allies in
some respects, but the circumstances are
very much against him. he cannot make
headway with his patent amongst the peo-
pie of other States so long as be is incul.
pated with an alliance with men who are
making war upon his register. We advise
the Doctor to seize the earliest opportunity
in the Legislature to vindicate his con-
sistency, and do all he can to prove the
value OF his register as means OF increas-
ing the resources Of hard pressed Common
wealths. This is necessary to the success
OF the company OF MoFFETT and GR1MsLEY.

FLOR the Dispatch.l
Six Months, Vacation.

The question soon to be decided by the
people OF Richmond is. whether they are
willing for their children to run the streets
for six months without restraint?
The complaint heretofore has been that
the vacation OF three months is so long as
to cause the children to forget much of
what has been learned during the session.
In the -old-feld schools in the country
have known boys to attend school regu-
larly five months in the year from the time
they were ten years old until they were
twenty-one, and then find themselves not
far enough advanced to perform an ordi-
nary example in long division, or read in
telligibly in McGufey's Third Reader. Can
we expect better results in Richmond !?
VIII not the moral effects be far worse? In
the country the children, ordinarily, are
kept hard at work during the long interval.
The framework so closely occupies their
bodies and minds that they do not find the
time and occasion to form vicious habits
and morals.
But here in Richmond, where there are
10000 children OF all classes and grades OF
morals, the very ldienesS will not only afford
them abundant opportunity to engage IN
mischief, but will force them into vice for
want of employment; and in few years
we shall-have small army OF street-Arabs
and hoodlums.
As means of self-defence and protection
against Iawlessness, we should select coun-
eilmen who will show by their actions as
well as pro essions that we shall go forward
and not backwards in our publc.school ed
ucation. fATERFAhiLiAs.
lIt is for the people to attend to this mat
ter; and now. is the time. 1t will be too
late. after the eIection.l

Our friend q Che Lexington Gazetteis, we

Our friend Of Che LeSingso Gazette is, we
fear, hypercritical. He is as iastid the
physician OF the renowned Governor OF
Barataria mo dish will pass his severe scru-
tiny. We beg him to allow US to eat a lit
tie Of some dish that may not be exactly
suited to his refined palate.
Undoubtedly he Is needlessly severe upon
the voters for the compromise bill, who re-
iected the preamble, which they regarded
untrue, but which they considered no part
OF the bill. Many OF them said this.
The point Of the so.called compromise
was that some OF the best men who had
ranged themselves with the "forcible re-
adiusters !" voted for bill which had not
scintilla OF "force" about it-not word
about the rejection of tax-receiyable cou.
pons in it. Was not this 4 great Concession OF
the anti-funding crusaders, who demanded
the unconditional abandonment OF the
funding act? Was the so-caled compro-
mise not valuable as showing this fact and
the capabiity OF the House Of Delegates to
unite upon measure not devoid OF ele-
nents out Of which might be constructed
satisfactory settlement Of the debt ques-
ton satisfactory to everybody and paving
the way to peace and to final delivery from
the agitation OF the question OF the State
| debt, that is tending to destruction of pub
| lie credit along with public virtue? Fur.
thermore, is it not OF decided value that the
Legislature in this compromise solemnly
declared the e1act amount Of the public
debt, thus knocking the labbergast OF the
S. P. hoodlnms.
We may, with some assurance that our
appeal will be respected, beseech our
friend to get down somewhat from his high
horse and direct his efforts with more prac-
tical and judicious judgment to the objects
Of promoting peaceful and considerate
understanding between the tive parties in
the Legislature and between the public rep
resentatves and the public creditor. An
effort like that promises much; but our
friend, we fear, has taken the "wrong
shoot"
We might say something applicable locally
to our contemporary, but we will stop Just
here, using concession and harmony and
frugal fare.
