Bankrupt Law.

1t is, perhaps, hardly worth while now to
speak of such matters as the Bankrupt law.
But, for all that, it may be well to call atten-
ton even now to the fact that instead of a
repeal of that law as it stood, amendments
to it were needed. All commercial countries
need bankrupt laws, and all modern COM
mercial countries have had them, amending
them from time to time as experience show
ed their shortcomings.
A proper law Of this kind is nothing less
than essential, and if the Congress of the
United States ever stops partisan fights and
fracas and addresses itself to the general in
terests, the re-enactment OF Bankrupt law,
made cheap and simple and clear in opera
ton, will claim its attention along with a
revision of our shamefully cumbrous and
absurdy burdensome customs regulations
State.
That must be the judgment OF all impair.
tial thinkers. There is no advanced govern
ment in political science. that has not bank
rupt law, and no commercial nation can we'll
do without one. 1t is wise public policy to
so adjust the laws that the energies and ex-
perience of business men should be given to
the development OF trade interests. The
best of men fail. 1t is not wise to hedge
them about with legal restrictions, SO as to
their slavery to insurmountable
debt.

Jefferson Davis Last.

The common sense craftsmanship of the
country has long since concluded that a gov.
eminent cannot be run successfully upon
abstract theories. However plausible when
setin words, and however well adapted to
illustrate what should be, the fact remains
that the State Rights, or right of secession doc
trine, is not that which is suited to the wants
of this country, or promotive of the happi-
ness and progress of the people. In the
light of past experience, the yaporings of
Jefferson Davis may be tolerated, as the
harmless musings of great failure. We
therefore publish his remarks recently made
in Mississippi before the Press Association
OF that State, so that our readers may know
what Mr.. Davis is thinking about, and the
notions he entertalns as to the results Of the
war. The Columbus (Miss) Independent re-
ports him on the occasion referred to as say
ing {:
81 love Mississippi In vigorous manhood
| sought, as soldier, to place laurels on her
brow; as prisoner in . dungeon | sought
to honor her by wearing with fortitude the
chains her enemies locked around me and
hope to live to weave another chaplet for
her honored brow. l defended Mississippi
when she was reviled for regulating her
obligations, and defended her because she
had never repudiated sn honest debt l
defended her for her act of secession, be-
cause secession is the rightful remedy and
the last and only resort for preserving con-
stitutional liberty when .he dominant party
to the constitutional compact disregards the
restraints wisely imposed for the preserva-
ton of the liberties of the people against the
aggressions OF those in authority. In the
act OF secession you did no wrong, and did
no wrong. But whatever you and 1 may
think about it, Of one truth am confident.
have never seen reconstructed Southern
woman, and such women will yet raise up
children to vindicate that you and l were
right. DO not think that am preaching an
other revolution or stirring up party strife.
am only declaring my undoubted convic-
ton of the God-granted righteousness OF our
cause, and that it will yet be vindicated.-
Like Job, in the desolation of her sack
and ashes, Mississippi can say. 81 believe
my avenger liveth.''
The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1879-06-26

The State allows its temper to run away
with its judgment in its criticism of the
Presidents veto mes sage. The great mass
of the people Of Virginia have no sympa-
thy with the extreme revolutionary propo-
sitions Of the Democrats in. Congress, and
their evident design to degrade the Execu-
tive arm Of the government. They would
despise the President, as all honorable men
should, did he not maintain the dignity and
the constitutional prerogatives of his high
office. Congress has the clear right to enact
laws to regulate national elections, and so
long as these laws stand unrepealed it is the
clear duty of the President to see that they
are enforced. The unmitigated partizan
spirit which has controlled the majority in
Congress, ,'subordinating the business of the
country and every other high and important
consideration to the mischievous plans and
schemes of mere political traders, receives
no sympathy from the great mass of the
people.

THE 4TH IN HARRIsoNBURG.-Pr
tions for the celebration of the 4th of July
are being made on most extensive scale in
Harrisonburg, and the people Of all classes
are entering upon the work with vim. The
whole town will be decorated, and every
thing that canlcontribute to the comfort and
enjoyment OF the guests will be provided in
abundance. The military and civic display
will be the most imposing ever seen in the
Valley, and the crowd in attendance will
doubtless be immense. Both of the military
companies from this place will be present,
as will also the Stonewall Band. The fare
for the round trip will be only 81. All who
can spare the time should not fail to avail
themselves of this opportunity to enjoy the
national holiday.

Messrs Eduors:-In your paper of last
week you published the death of Mr.. Alex
ander, which occurred on the 18th inst. on
the land OF Mr.. Mckee, near Greenville

William Powhatan Alexander, the son of the
late William Alexander, deceased who
resided few miles south Of Lexington, in
Rockbridge county. The deceased was re-
lated to some of the leading families of that
county, his father and mother (whose maid

which he passed unhurt. He was very
poor man. X.

Cure for SANDER.

We find the following pointed article going
the rounds of our exchanges. 1t deserves
as conspicuous a place as it is possible to give
1t, for no community is clear of the sin it es-
says to cure. There is scarcely day that
we do not hear the tongue of slanderer
whispering its suspicions,or magnifying 9TH
ers' suspicious. and aiming dagger at some
ones character. IL comes in the form Of a
gossip, who, with an affected sigh, is ''sorry
to hear' this or that evil of this or that per-
son, Or ibid you hear ~ this or that OF this
or that person. There is no respecter of
person, with such. either. The more ele-
waited and unsuspclous the characteristic
higher and purer the reputation-the more
defenceless the victim-the deeper the affect
ed sigh, and the more pointed the Epoisoned
arrow.
Let every one read the illustration given
below and make personal application of the
lesson it inculcates. 1t may do good. If not,
it will not be because there is not reces-
sity for the reproof it contains, and that its
publication is not designed to awaken the
conscience of some, and more perfectly dis
cipline tongue and life {:
The following very homely but singularly
instructive lesson is by St. Philip Feri:
A lady presented herself to him, one day,
accusing herself of being given to SANDER.
"Do you frequently fall into this fauli?"
inquired the Saint.
''Yes, Father, very often," replied the
penitent.
SHY dear child,'' said the Saint, s'your
sin is great, but the mercy of God is still
greater. For your penance, do as follows:
Go to the nearest market, purchase chick
en- just killed and still covered with feathers;
you will then walk certain distance, pluck
ing the bird as you 60 along; your walk fin
ished, you will return to me.'
Great was the surprise of the lady in re-
ceiving so strange penance; but, siencing
all human reasoning, she replied: 81 will
obey you, Father-I will obey" Accord
irgly, she repaired to the market, bought
the fowl, and set out on her journey, pluck
ing it as she had been ordered.
In a short time she returned, anxious to
tell of her eXactness in accomplishing her
penance and DESTROYS to receive.some eXplana.
tion of one so singular.
s'Ah!'' said the Saint, ssyou have been
very faithful to the first part of my orders
now for the second, and you will be cured.
Retrace your steps, pass through the places
you have traversed, and gather up all the
feathers you have scattered.
''But, Father" exclaimed the poor woman,
shat is impossible. I cast the feathers
carelessly on every side; the wind carried
t hem in different directions; how can I re-
cover them?"
.f~cil, my child, y replied the Saint, $50
it is with your words of SANDER; like the
feathers that the wind has scattered, they
have been waited in many directions; call
them back if you can. Go, and sin no
more"

Senator Withers misrepresented the peo-
pie of Virginia, when he voted in caucus, on
Monday last, with the six other obstructives.
The great mass of the people of his own
party want Congress to make all necessa-
nv appropriations for the healthful opera
ton of government, without political con-
ditions, and then adjourn. Thepeople are
heartily sick of D emocratic folly and pig
headedness, as illustrated in this extra ses-
sion and its reckless legislation, and are free
in their condemnation of the policy pursued
by the majority iii Congress.

"What's in name, - is creating peculiar
interest from the fact that the name of the

if it were kenhooper.-State.
The Charlottesville Chronicle supplies the
many variations, which we think ought to
satisfy the perplexed mind of the State.
The Chronicle says: The Republican news

His name is Hickenlooper, but among his
