THE PAPER-BoX FACTORY OF j. W. RANDOLPH
s. ENGLISH is now one Of the institutions of Rich
mond. This department Of their business Is man
aged by Mr.. N. V. RANDOLPH, who informs us that
they started the 1sr OF July, 1877, with seven
hands; they now have steady work for over one
hundred. Their trade reaches from Baltimore to
Texas and rs far west as ST. LOUIS. This Is strict
Iy Virginia institution; tho most of the ma
chinery was made IN Richmond, and much of the
STOCK they use is made in Virginia II the druggists
and jewellers OF State would buy their goods OF
this firm instead Of sending TO New York and Phila-
depha. it would give employment to many more
hands-nostly g1rls-who find it hard to make
living In these dull times. Their prices are rs low
as any northern, French, or German manufacturer,
and they win mail handsome catalogue to any one
who will apply. If more of our people who have
capital would start such enterprises as this there
would be no necessity of holding meetings 10 devise
means OF giving employment to oar poor women
and boys. BY all means encourage this firm In
this new enterprise.

The Financial Condition of the Com.
mOnHealtI. 80:

Mr.. W. T. Taylor, the Auditor Of Public
Accounts, called the Committees OF Finance
OF the two houses together in conference
yesterday morning. and laid before them
the present financial condition of the Com.
monwealtb.s
The statement furnished the committee
shows that the following amounts in cou.
pons have been received:
1ST7-In October, SS5,071; November,
S44, s11; December, S467, 7,849.
1s7S-january, 3,720; February, s27,-
SIG; to March 4tb, S15, ,756-$734,523.
Amount of coupons outstanding and ma
tured and liable to come in at any time,
1885,, ,44O.
Cash in the treasury, s1O3.95.
Due to Richmond banks, to mature this
month, S175,0O0, and tie banks have ex-
pressed their inability to grant further
loans.
Balance Of taxes due for the last fiscal year
only little in excess OF 81, 100000.
The Auditor had no doubt the $103 had
heen exhausted In the last hour; none could
be borrowed, and none was being collected.
The asylums were behind, even on support
account, and were calling for help he could
not afford. He had no means OF paying the
per diem OF members.
He was asked II he had anything to sug-
gest as means of avoiding deadlock Of
the government, and he replied none what
ever, unless the General Assembly could
provide that the license-tax should be paid
in money only. This. he believed, could be
done. OF the one million yet due there
were nearly enough OF coupons ready to
absorb 1t. On the 1st of next July 5000, 900
more OF them would mature.
There was another conference OF the
two committees yesterday evening, and on
motion Of Senator Smith, after much dis
cussion, the following was adopted:
l. ResoLUed, That in the opinion OF the
conference it is the true policy OF the Gene
raj Assembly, in order to carry on the gov
ernment and to relieve it from the necessity
from time to time of borrowing money
from the banks to meet casual deficits in the
State treasury, the payment Of the license
tax for the privilege OF selling liquors and
the tax collected under the operation OF the
Mofett liquor-law shall be required in law
full money OF the United States, and that q
bill containing these distinct propositions
shall be speedily pressed to its passage.
9. That another bill requiring all other
license-taX to be paid also in such lawful
money shall be reported as soon as possible,
with view to its speedy passage.

BEAUTY AND THE BEAsT-FANCY SCENES,
LOVELY COSTUMES, AND BEAUTIFUL Music
Not very large but highly appreciative
and heartily sympathetic audience witness
ed the production Of " Beauty and the
Beast" at Mozart Hall last night.
Miss Carrie Straus, as "Beauty," was
charming: Miss A. Johnson, as Mum
dane," acted the worIdIy-minded daughter
and sister to perfection, and Miss Annie
Hamilton sustained the dual character Of
"Elvina" and "Queen OF the Fairies" in
her usual excellent style. The little Misses
j. c., E. NJ, o. T., NJ. S., L. S., and NJ. c.,
as the Fairies, looked as sweet as the first
flowers of spring. Master Mountjoy
Walker as the "BeasL" afterwards Prince
Carlos), Willie Mitchell as g Rudolph"
and Henry Cabell as Damon" acquitted
themselves very handsomely, and all were
literally applauded.
The costumes were elegant-those OF
"Beauty," "The Beast" and the "Queen
of the Fairies" being exceptionally beautl-
full. The properties and Suggesting were
in excellent taste. Miss Webster, on the
piano, and Messrs. Clarence Peters, Rich
ard Wagner, and George Y2elker, Jr., Ia
vored the audience with their best orches-
trail selections.
Inc evening elIei lai hme"C SO". ~
with the farce of "My Uncle's Will" with
characters by Masters Walker and Mitchell
and Misses Hamilton, Straus, and Johnson.
1t was full Of humor, and the audience were
kept in a roar OF laughter. Between the
first and last piece fancy dances were well
executed by Misses Hamiltoa and Straus,
Master Walker sung "The Swell OF the
Day. and in response to an encore, Glove,
Love, Beautiful Love-"
The entertainment was very agreeable
one, and it is matter Of regret that Mo-
Zurt Hall was not crowded.

LOCAL MATTERS.

THE ODD-FELLows' WIDOWS AND Or
PHANs' RELIEF ASSOCIATION OF VIRGINIA.
A called meeting of the Endowment Com
mittees from the various Odd-Fellows'
lodges Of Richmond and Manchester was
held at the Odd-Fellows' Hall Monday night.
NJ. A. Mcdonald, Of Aurora Lodge, pre-
sided, with Thomas w. Gentry as secretary.
The committee adopted as the name Of the
association that Of "Tbe Odd-Fellows'
Widows and Orphans Relief Association Of
Virginia"
F. j. Duke. OF Friendship Lodge, was ap-
pointed to obtain charter from the Gene
raj Assembly; after which permanent or
ganization will be effected.
The object Of the association, as its name
implies, is the formation Of an endowment
or insurance plan for the families OF de-
ceased members, and will probably be
something aftersthat system that has made
the Knights Of Honor so popular. Any
fifth-degree member in good standing can
take out policy. This plan will not be
compulsory, as are some insurance schemes,
but will be optional either: with the lodges
or with individual members, and it is not
proposed to limit the benefits Of the associa-
tion only to lodges in Virginia.
There is but little doubt that when the
charter is obtained and an organization per-
fected that the association will start out
under the most favorable auspices.

way between this city and the old court
house entered the office recently occupied
by NJ. A. Cogbill, clerk Of the County
Court, and inquired for that gentlemen.
Captain Fitzgerald, City Sergeant, informed
him that Mr.. Cogbill was at Chesterfield
Courthouse. The gentleman said it was
hard that every time he came he should find
him at that place. and was told that that
was proper; that the Court was now held
there; that Mr.. Cogbill was rarely in the
city, and if here never transacted any busi-
ness other than to issue marriage-license.
At this last announcement CHASTITY look
overspread the old mans conference.-the

the greatest surprise on learning that the

nearly two years since the courthouse was
removed from Manchester, and all the re-
cords were taken out January /, 1878. Car
