Our Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON D. G. May 3, 1879.

AsH1NGToN u. y. May 5, 1879.
The Post, Democratic organ, says
this morning that the Democratic
programme is as follows:
"We trust the repeal measures
twill be sent to Mr.. Hayes in the
following order:
list The repeal OF the test oath law.
''2nd. The repeal Of the supervisors
Claw.
''3d. The repeal of the Army inter-
ference provision.

eff he vetoes them, it will serve to
make vetoes cheap. Then let them
''be put on the appropriation bills
zone hour before adjournment.
The Post is Democratic organ,
its editor is in the confidence of lead.
ing Southern politicians, and it ia.
vored Blackburn, over Randall, for
Speaker, because Blackburn was a
Southern man. Congress will do
exactly as the Post suggests. The
only omission above is to mention
the fact that the Democrats, fairly
panic stricken by the clear and iorci-
bic veto of the Army bill, and the
almost universal approval Of it by
the people, will pass supply bills for
the military and civil branches of the
Government. They will do now,
under the lash of public sentiment,
what, if they had been sincere at
first, they would then have done.
The veto message is better liked as
it is better understood. It is sound,
Republican, and patriotic document.
Yesterday the House Committee
on Territories informally considered
bill for the admission of Washing
ton territory as State. trust the
bill will be reported favorably. The
Territory has, doubtless, the requi.
site population, and has now entered
upon period of rapid developement.
Its old population is exceptionally
intelligent and thrifty. Let us have

ing our trade with Brazil. What
is needed most there are strong bust
ness houses Of undoubted financial
character. The present attempts to
secure trade to the United States
seem failures. A mere agency and
sample business will not answer the
purpose. An American bank with
capital of one million, or more,
would succeed, while one OF. "a small
capital would fail. The capital Of
the Bank Of Brazil is sixteen mil
lions, the English Bank, two mil
lions, the Commercial Bank six mil
lions, and still the complaint of Bra
zil is a lack of money. Another
thing that is needed is all established
and certain means of direct COM
munication between this country
and Brazil. It is true that trade,
once established, will ensure the pro-
duction Of the necessary vessels, but
it is equally true that regular and
assured trips of substantial vessels

to people more remote, the advantage
OF their trade. Standish.

one Of the party present, whereupon
the drunken man proceeded to swal-

that night he felt no i'll effects caused
by the rash deed, but next day the
glass began to cut and grind his
bowels, compelling the man to writhe
and scream in agony. This contin-

the poor wretch was brought to New

physician could save him from his
inevitable and fast approaching
death. Of course no physician 5

searching CatQaf-
tic medicine that can be employed: cleans
ing the stomach and bowels, and even the
blood. In small doses of one pill day,
they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health. -.
AYERS PILLS have been known for
more than quarter of century, and have
obtained worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that obstruc-
tons within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints Of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baff1ed the best of
human skill. While they produce power
full effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. By
their aperient action they grippe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give painwhen the bowels are not inflamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
mgar-coating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.

din farm, the largest cultivated wheat
farm in the world. 1t covers about
40, 900 acres. embracing both railroad

the Red river. The farm is DIVIDED into
four parts, and has dwellings, granaries,
blacksmith shop, elevators, &C., and

During the seeding season they employ
about seventy men, and in harvest time
as many as 200 men are busily engaged.
Seeding commences about the 9th OF
April and ends the first of May. The
work is done very Systematically, the
machines following each other about
the field four rods apart. Cutting COM
mences about the Sth Of August and
ends the fore part OF September. Then
comes threShing, which is done by eight
steam threshers. After threshing the
stubble ground Is plowed with gang

OUR neighbor at New Market goes
out of his way to seek a quarrel with
the HERALD, upon the debt question
He evidently takes communication,
which appeared IN the HERALD, last
week, as editorial. He knew better, at
least man running paper as old as
the Valley claims to be, should know
better. The article was marked as a
communication and did not profess to
give the views of the HERALD.
We shall not apologize for our views
upon this question by telling ouI readers
that the Valley advocates the same.
We have our opinions upon the subject
and have expressed them clearly
and distinctly. when one of the pro-
prietors Of the paper could not endorse
the sentiments expressed in the editorial
columns upon the subject, he did not
endeavor to conceal that difference Of
opinion, but published card TO the
readers of the HERALD, informing them
of the fact and giving them his Vows
upon the subject under discussion IN a
card published over his own signature.
We do not propose TO discuss the
question with paper that claims to
advocate the same policy aud to stand
upon the same ground. 1t seems to be
new position for that paper and to
assure himself tina. he IS not far from
right, he tells his readers what he las
done, and fearing he may be censured
for the position he now advocates, he
adds land so has the HERALD" Now
continue to pursue that policy, stick
close TO the HERALD, and so long as
you state correctly our position upon
public questions, we will not object TO
your telling your readers that you are
in accord with US.
The editor of the Valley is not as
ignorant of the position Of the HERALD
rs he claims to be, for in his article he
admits that in the editorial columns OF
the HERALD. the settlement is urged,
and in another part Of his article he
calls upon the HERALD to take a
position upon the question.
The writer Of the communication
which the Valley endeavors to answer
Is now absent. but he will, we have no
doubt, in his own good time, reply 10
the bundle OF contradictions published
as editorial in the last Valley.
If any reader Of the HERALD is in
doubt as to the sentiments OF this paper
upon the bill. which we suppose passed
the HOsse of Delegates last Monday,
he has only to refer to the editorial
upon the public debt published two
weeks ago. Ifthe Valley wants to &C.
cupy the same position, let him have
the manliness to do so. We will MOI
object.

Judge Rlves on Civil Rights and hixed
JnFies

LYNCHBURG. VA, March lS.-The
United States Court for the western
district of Virginia commencedits ses-
sion. Judge Rlves, in his charge to
the grand jury on the subject Of mixed
juries and the Indictment of the county
judges for failure to provide them. said:
Prominent among these acts Is the
one now desire to give you in charge.
1t is the &C. of March |, 1875. 1t as
sures to all, without discrimination Of
race or color, the full and equal en-
joyment of the accommodations and
privileges Of inns, public cOnveyances,
theatres and other places OF amusement
aud provides exemplary redress Tor the
denial thereof; but it does not stop
here. These are the lesser matters OF
the law, which, however, il scrupulous-
~ guards and protects, but it goes
further, and embraces the great mu-
niment of life and liberty in presery-
ing the trial by an impartial jury, and
conforming TO the grand precept that
no man shall be deprived Of his liberty
except by the laws of the land or the
judgment of his peers This acl,
therefore, secures, by its fourth clause
to the lately enlranchised race the
Inesllmable privilege os having their
rights and privileges tried by jurors not
subject to the additional influences and
spirit of caste. The State laws deyol-
YES upon the judges Of the county and
corporation cOurts the duty Of making
out and returning jury lists. Thcir mo-
tiyes in excluding cOlOred men from the
Jury box makes and constitutes the
mlsdcmeaRor. and IN judging Of the
ohcnsc the grand jury must hook to the
surrounding circumstances Of the case
and the overt act Of the parties to fix
t c ltcDtion OF the lat rim this vlolaiI
OF the fourteenth amendment. 1t wa,
in the judges view, the habitual neglect
or he special denial IN civil or criminal
suits. involving the anlipalhies Of race,
that is aimed at 10y this act Of Con-
gress."
Concluding, Judge Rves said: 1T IS
your duty to enforce a uniform Obedl-
ence and 10 exact a universal respect
for the laws. Ii this shall be faithfully
and fearlessly done throughout my
whole district it will arrest future resort
to the federal courts for a denial in this
respect Of the equal protection Of the
laws, and leave the State courts in full
and free exercise Of their appropriate
jurisdiction. But if this be net done,
and plain duty is eyaded under art
fully devised and misplaced sCruples rs
to the law, you will be fomcntlng further
disorders and cnnlllcts.u

Two pairs Of pants were tied around
the waist with a rope, to which also a
pair of shoes were attached. The mans
age was about thirty-fve or forty years.
The head was crushed and battered,
