FLOWERS FOR MAHONE.-The Ad-
ministration is evidently preparing to
take the leader of the reputation party
in this State to its bosom. We read in
the papers that Malone is daily closet
Ell with the President, and that basket
of rare flowers was sent from the White
House to ornament the desk of the new
Senator, the morning after he made his
fatal plunge into the Republican ranks.
But we did not know precisely who sent
the flowers, or wrote the note that the
new Senator received, until we read the
following from the Washington cores
pondence of the New York Times OF
the 18th
"Upon the desk of Mr.. Malone was a
large and beautiful basket of flowers,
sent to him By the President from the
White House conservatory"
This was from the Chief of the Re
publican party to celebrate the advent
of the Readjuster Chief, with all the
odor of reputation about him, linto the
ranks of 1.-THE party of grand mora
ideas!" And so they take Mahoue
with his principles, and cannot disso-
ciate themselves from the one any more
than from the other.-Lynchbaag Vir'

Speaking of our new Senator's pecu-
culiar method in debate-ajmt thod that
has heretofore been SO severely de-
nounced by the party with which he
has allied himself, tie Philadelphia
Times says:
"Mahone, of Virginia. has defined him.
self The caustic photography of john
son, which makes patriotism the last
refuge of q knave, couldn't have done
himself the lineal descendant of Bully
Brooks in manner and method, the very
prototype of all that swaggeiing inso
lence and truculent menace hich the
North has detested and excoriaied since
the first of his bad line struck Charles
Sumner a coward blow. What price
Mahone's allies pay for his services,
whether in patronage or the blandish-
ments of official trust, is of little conse-
quence. 1t is law of nature that ele-
ments seek their own affinities If the
peculiar work that Malone has to do is
best carried out by joining the ranks of
the administration, the public at large
need have little concern. If the con-
stituents that sent him to the Senate are
satisfied with his votes neither party in
the Senate can complain. But that he
should seek the shelter of the Republi
can party to revive the threats that en-
livened the debates before the war is a
curious comment on the morality of q
party which made no end of capital out
of the foolish vaporing of Wade Hamp-
ton under similar circumstances"
The Times should remember, s.ys the
r
stances alter cases." and that it makes a
world of difference as TO whose OK is
gored. Judging by the applause that
came from the Republican side in this
case, that party is very willing TO have
an exhibition of plantation Manners"
as they have been wont to call them,
from southern bulilies," when the

DEATH OF A. y. KINNEY, ESQ.

At the residence of his sister, Mrs. VIM. Craig
in this city. at 81 O'clock A. NJ. the 10th inst.
Archibald 8. Kinney, ESQ.,, breathed his last
after an illness of several weeks, aged II years
and II months. He was the youngest brother
of VIM. and Charley Kinney and OF Nicholas c
and jefferson Kinney, the former of whom was
for many years the clerk Of the Circuit court o.
Augusta county, and the latter was for many
years the Clerk of the County Court. At ar
early age the deceased left this, his birth place
for Mississippi. where he lived for some five. OF
six years, and was engaged in cottOn-grOwine
and mercantile pursuits. Afterwards, he re
turned to Staunton. where he had since lived
highly esteemed and respected to the day OF hi'
death. During the lifetime Of his brothers
Nicholas c., and Jefferson Kinney, he alter
nately assisted them in the offices referred to
when he showed himself a most efficient clerk
He was engaged for a time in mercantile bust
ness in Staunton, and then occupied the posi-
ton of Civil Engineer and treasurer on the G..
& o. R. R.. where his efficiency, honesty. and
fidelity was the common remark Of all will
whom he was connected.
He afterwards returned to StauntOn and was
engaged in clerking in various capacities, and
during the last three years was Book keeper
for the STAUNTON SPECTATOR, which position
he held at the time of his death. Last year. he
was elected. almost unanimously, to the Office
of Magistrate and served with marked fidelity
and ability.
To say of Archibald 8. Kinney, that he was
eminently generous and kind in this painfully
practical age is but stating the simple truth
His fidelity to friends was unbending, his
truthfulness answering, and his honesty Of
purpose unQuestionable. Upon his brow these
characteristics were indelibly stamped. and
were recognized by all who knew him. larger,
warmer, and a kinder heart never beat in a
more generous breast than in that Of our de-
ceased friend.
The funeral services were conducted from the
Episcopal Church on last Sunday evening at
o'clock by the Rector, Rev. w. @. Hullihen,
and numerous friends and relatives followed
the remains to their resting place in Thornrose
Cemetery. The pail bearers were. DR.. c. Alex

Manufactures In Staunton.

In last Thursdays issue of the Valley Virgin
ian appeared an article purportlng to give the
true reason why more manufacturing estab-
lishments we're not started in StauntOn.
The article in question gave as the potent rca-
son that we had no mechanics here of sufficient
ability to undertake the management of any
manufacturing industry. and suggested that in
future the young idea' should be trained in
the way of mechanics and not OF the profess
sions.
We beg leave to differ with the editorial in
question in regard to the cause ascribed, and
suggest to the Editor and the public in general,
that there are two reasons more potent than the
above-reasons which are more easily over
come and which can be remedied by the bust
ness men and capitalists of Staunton asoU.
without waiting for our progeny to effect the
change.
In the first place there are no inducements
offered by the City Council to any one wishing
to make a plant; but on the contrary. he is
subjected to heavy taxation. In Baltimore and
other manufacturing cities, all manufacturing
'plants'' are exempted from corporation taxes
for from five to ten years.
If such a law were passed by our Council it
would draw foreign capital here, where it is
sadly needed. for coming now to the second
reason) the home capital is in the hands of a
few curbstone brokers. who wonld rather buy
paper on the streets Cutting it in two and re-
serving the larger half for terest than to start
a paper factory or any other manufacturing
concern with legal profit in it. The rates Of
interest here are too heavy for business con-
Germ to stand more especially mandatory
that handles large sums and needs frequent
discounts, and until We can get more accom-
modations at lower rate of discount. no
mandatory can afford to start here on q lin
tied capital
How, in the name of all that is good, the
Tirginia,s expects to raise our progeny as COM
petent managers without first having the facto-
rfes here, is more than we can tell. They may
be taught the theory Of working an establish-
ment, but theory and practice are two differ
ent things. They may go away from Staunton
to learn the practical workings of different
manufactures, though once away they will
seek wider fields for operations, and unless
our capitalists first come forward and invest
their surplus thousands in new enterprises, our
children and children's children wiiidescend to
their graves with little more practical knowl-
edge of this subject than they have now.
