with some railroad brains in it. In many
respects the Board is composed of good
men, but they are incompetent as rail-
road men, for want of experience; and
we dare say nobody will question this
statement when their management for
the past two years is held up to view. It
matters not to US who composes the di-
rectory, or where they or the President
shall reside, provided they are competent
men and possessed of integrity. Said a
Dayton man of large influence in that
city, a few days. since, while in conyer-
sation on that subject: F'The President
mast be a Dayton man. If Col. Mead
won't do, we must have some other Day
ton man. 1t is just that damnable ego
tism, coupled with that other debasing
element of human character, saetfshness,'
on the part of the Dayton men that first
gave birth to the sectional antagonism
which has driven some of the most hon
est, unselfish and energetic men out of the
Board, and forever severed their connec-
ton with the road. First-class men nat
urally shrink away from and withdraw
their connection from any such project
so soon as it assumes the arts and tricks
peculiar to the shysters and Shylocks.--
Along the entire line the stockholders
have about made up their minds that the
present management does not intend to
finish the road; they now feel that they
are about ready to surrender their stock
for the benefit of the bondholders, if they
would complete the road. More exactly
stated, it is "neck or no dinner. -
Well, says one: you have found fault
and abused everybody = what remedy
would you suggest?'' Answer: have
abused nobody. If l find fault it should
be remembered by those who are hurt
that E'they are our friends who tell us of
our faults" As for the remedy, it is per-
fectly clear that Mr.. Barney and his COM
mittee struck the proper lead when they
proposed to the bondholders the issue of
one million new bonds. So far, so good :;
but, as I have already indicated, this is
asking too much of Intelligent men. Some
good and sufficient guaranty should be
made to the bondholders that this scheme
will be carried out in good faith and the
road finished and equipped with due re-

whom shall be appointed by the stock
holders and the other by the bondholders,
each of whose written approval shall be

With this arrangement, the stockholders
will be placed in position of safety, and
they will find it much more to their in
terest than to forecIose and take the road
in which event they must not only blot
out the stockholders interest, and there
by create an army of enemies, seriously
detracting from their future prospects,
but in order to make the investment pay,
they must complete and equip the road
at cost not less than three hundred and
fifty thousand dollars.

H. r. STEVENS, ESQ.,:
Dear Sir.-Having suffered from a breaking out
of Cankerous Sores for more than five years. caused
by an accident of fractured bone, which fracture
ran into running sore, and having used every
thing 1 could think of and nothing helped me un-
til had taken six bottles of your valuable medi-

mended very highly. The sixth bottle cured me-

for which the Vegetine should be used. know of
no disease which will not admit of its use with
good results. Almost innUmerable complaints are

can be entirely expelled from the system by the
use of the Vegetine. When the blood is perfectly
cleansed, the disease rapidly Yields; all pains

whipping Post in virginia.

Virginia's new criminal code became
operative on the 1st of July. Under it one
OF more whipping posts viii be establish
ed in each city and county within the
Commonwealth. In future there will be
no imprisonment for petty larceny, ex-
cept for second offenses, and where, in the
Judgment of the Justice or Judge, the con-
dition of female offender may render
stripes unadvfsable. The Legislature de-
termined on this change at the last ses-
sion, in view of the crowded condition OF
the prisons, the cost of maintaining con-
victs, and the impoverishment of the Com
monwealth's financial resources. The
right of appeal from the Judgment of
Justice to trial by jury is, of course, re-
served. There is some division of opinion
as to the necessity for the reestablishment
of the whipping post, but the majority of
the people undoubtedly expect great
things from it as an economical and
erime-preventing measure.
Ben. Butler and the rest of the infa-
tionists are in favor of deprecated paper
money for workingmen. They think they
can fool the people by telling them dol
lar and a half in paper worth dollar IN
coin is better than paper dollar worth
its face in coin, because there would be
more of the former than the latter. The
leaders assume to know more than the
men who work with their hands, about
the value of money. The managers OF old
shinplaster banks used to talk the same
way. The argument then was that mon
ey would be plenty-that is, easily OBJ
tainable-if coin redemption were not de-
manded. That theory was soon exploded
and the banks broke. 1t turned out that
the banks that were so anxious to make
money plenty were so rotten that they
did not pay fifty cents on the dollar. That
experience cost the country hundreds Of
millions of dollars. The national bank
has wiped out the whole shinplaster sys-
tenn. and made the issue that kind of pa
per impossible. The result is we have
now the best paper money in the world
The bank may break, bnt the paper is
good. Cincinnati Gasetts.

sound Doctrine of a CoIored brother

There is a genuine ring about this col

a bottom fact on which to base his theory,
and it would be no harm if it found its
way among the pale-faces: "Bredderen,
