The Free Bridge.

Thc'Dispatch advocated the building OF
the free bridge between Richmond and
Manchester: and, still feeling an interest IN
its success, is soIry that it has been closed
10 all but foot passengers. The merchants
of Richmond must know that this bridge
has benefited them whether IL has pro6ted
any other class OF not. But 1t must have
been benefit to all classes OF the people, OF
both sides OF the liver. Ii not, then all
communication between the two cities
should be inteTdcted. II partial Obstruc-
tions 10 trade and travel are desirable. total
distractions are more desirable. We have
enjoyed the advantages of the bridge until
we have forgotten the disadvantages OF its
absence.
The bridge was completed in the spring
of ls73-nearly eight years ago. TO few
OF Us does the time appear TO have been so
long since Richmond and Manchester were
opened each 10 the other. Since that time
sum not exceeding two thousand dollars
has been appropriated by Richmond, Man
chester, and Chester field to the object OF
keeping the bridge in repair, or about $3.50
per annum on an average. The eXpendi-
tuie OF this small sum hos saved annually TO
the reople Of those cities and that county
many thousands Of dollars.
How much would ii take now to put
the bridge into good condition II would
require not over sixteen or seventeen hun
bred dollars 10 make IL new bridge, as
good as ii was in 1878, and therefore that
sum and an equal sum annually expended
in repairs would keep the bridge in good
order for eight years more; or an average
OF some $3.50 year divided between Rich
mond, Manchester, and Chesterfield. The
expenditure Of this small sum would, we
repeat, save TO the people interested many
Thousands OF dollars.
But the bridge does not really need re-
newal at this time. Most Of the flooring is
good enough for use. BY appropraiing a
few hundred dollars now, the bridge may
therefore be rendered serviceable, and then
the small annual outlay spoken Of will keep
it alwavs 10 good condition. or perhaps even
improve its condition.

The fall of the Chief Magistrate of
the nation by the assassin's ball, in
the Baltimore and Potomac Depot,
on Saturday, brought the American
people face to face with the gravest
crisis and the most serious questions
touching the succession to the Presi-
deney that have arisen since the
formation of the government. The
wonderful recuperative power shown
by the President and the almost
miraculous advance that he has made
toward recovery give every reason for
belief IS well as hope that the crisis
has passed. But it is neither too
late nor too early to point out its
dangers and consider its lessons
Neac York Herald.
PUcK's TRIBUTE TO THE PRESIDENT.
Puck had made ready, with all the
rest OF his countrymen, for a festival !;
but his Joy is turned to sadness, and
he comes before you to-day with a
merry show and sad heart.
Shot at his post We never knew how
strong
The hand that grasped the helm, till
came the shock
When the fingers frightened in Pains
helpless lock
And the good ship quivered all her beams
along.
This was no deed of mutineers that throng
In clamorous revolt-no sunken rock
Madness at Deaths own grandeur dared
to mock
A pitiful fool has worked the State this
wrong
Not with the waves alone; with rebels
hate,
With friends distrust, he batled Slowly
grew
Our confidence in him who seered us
Danger, that found him faithful, crowns
him great,
The Ship of State sails on but of her
crew
Who well might take the helm, he be-
ing gone?

SATURDAY, JULY 9. 1881.
THE NATIONS HUMANITY.

When the news of the dastardly
attempt to assassinate the President
flashed over the wires and met the
Mortified gaze of the American people
as they read it on the telegraph bull
letins and in the newspaper columns,
the heart Of the Nation stood palsied
with fear and dread, strong men wept
with emotion and fear, and from
Maine to Texas, from the Atlantic to
the Pacific, there went up one uni
versal prayer that his precious life
might be saved.
On every side expressions of sym
pathy for his stricken wife and family
and of indignation against the cow
ardly assassin, were heard.
People of all classes, irrespective Of
race, creed, nationality or party,
joined in the National supplication,
and helped swell the tide of sympathy
and sorrow. For the time, there
were no Republicans and no Demo
Gratis, no Half-breeds and no Stall
warts-no party, no faction, no class
but Americans all equally imbued
with patriotic feeling, all equally con-
cerned for the safety Of the President.
Great as was the calamity, it's sting
was mitigated by the noble spirit evil
denced by the entire body Of the peo-
pie. Their touching, unselfsh sor-
row, their righteous Indignation, their
peace and order, their true humanity
challenged the admiration of the civ
ilized world. It proved the American
Republic to be the most stable and
the best government on the face of
the earth it established the fact that
the humanity and the civilization of
the American people is the purest
under the sun and in the midst of
the universal sorrow it engendered a
pride in the national character that
could be felt by no other people on
the globe.

The country cannot contemplate
the possibility that it may be robbed

hope. With reverent trust in the

live to bear the burdens the people
have placed upon him and to admin

his term with the frmness and Justice
he has thus far displayed.-NesS York

OK SUNDAY, when the President's
life hung, as it were, by single
thread, all over the land the people
sent up to Heaven their supplications
in his behalf. In every church and
Sabbath school, almost in every
household, the Omnipotent Power
was invoked to save the life so dear to
