Mr.. JgePrnsow DAVIS, 10 a recent inter
view with q. A. BURR, OF the Philadelphia
Press, had to say Of General EARLY ana
others what here follows:
aone Of the most faithful aud accurate
sauthern writers upon the war, ana one
who has written much. Is General JuDal
Farly. His memory OF events Is exceed
iaolv clear. and be writes with great inlelil.
eance. i regard him as the most failhlul OF
southern writer's upon the war. our peo'
nile are not great writers; | might almost
cav thew are limited writers. They nave
written more upon the war than awning
else. and yet the record they have !eit Is
very small by the side 81 tna' maue oy
northern writers.
q like myself, General Early cannot Tor
get the past, and argues from standpoint
which most people reject. There Is queer
history connected with him and his connec-
tion with the Confederacy. He was Union
man. and as member OF the Legislature
voted against the ordinance OF secession,
hut when Il was passed be went home ana
raised a company, aud be has never yet
turned his back upon the cause lnau'
eurated in spite Of his greatest efforts.
/, is prominent fact that those who were
the last 10, or the most reluctant 10 go
into, the Confeder&cy, were The most con,
sistently earnest in their support u IL ana
the last out OF it. The original secession.
isis-those who were In rush 10 get out Oh
the UnioD-soon exhausted their ardor,
and. as a general thing, did not last long.
Almost every man who became prominent
in the Confederacy went into secession WIN
great reluctance, following bis STATE o.
matter Of duly, Tegretting that the differ
ences could not have been peaceably adj
iusted."

Louis: w. S. BRYAN. 1881.
Our people were surprised last year 10
learn that their talented young fellow-ciil-
zen w. W. ARCHER, Esq, had Deen awarded
4 prize OF thousand dollars as the author
of paper upon what is called The Three
Americas RaitoDgy." This essay, together
with four others, is contained in the volume
before US; which also contains a good deal
of other mater-some Of il such as ought
never to have appeared in print, or, at any
rate, not in this book. Mr.. ARCHER's paper
is both interesting and informatory. We
have hastily run over The whole OF It. 1t is In
advocacy OF whit seems to Us TO be CHI
merical. visionary ralrOad-scheme; and yet
the young author so marshals bis facts,
figures, and other arguments. thai one Is
sometimes tempted to believe that there Is
after all merit in the scheme. This essay IS
certainly well worthy Of peruSal, las no
doubt the others are, but we have not read
them.) 1t indicates that the author Is a
born journalist, so thoroughly and with
such painstaking labor is his work done.

water.takers is alarming indeed. The Cty
Council know The indispensableness OF
water as we'll as anybody else. There can'
therefore, be no excuse for falling supply
this summer after all the experiences OF the
people OF Richmond in the past. Better
spend fifty thousand dollars for a new en-
CINE than run the risks OF being without
water one day. We used these last words
months ago as a warning. Their repetition
ought not TO be needed. We would fain
believe that they are not needed. Think Of
a water famine when the thermometer is al

results. Somebody would be hurt il SC

WATERFORD, VA, July 11.-At a recent
meeting OF the Republicans of this place
resolutions were adopted urging the nomi
nation of a Straighiout Republican ticket
for Governor, ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. and
Attorney. General.-Special TO Baltimore
american.
Why nots The Resdjusters dare moi
profess TO be Republicans, nor TO promise
that they will support the Republican can
dldate for President in 1884. II they sue
coed this year, they will keep up their party
organization, and laugh their Republican
allies to scorn. II, on the other hand, they
are defeated, the Republicans will be dou'
bly, defeated; for they will have sacrificed
their own organization and distinctive
creed. aud yet will have gained neither
present nor future success.
In word, the Republicans may be dam
sgfd but cannot possibly be benefited by au
alliance with the Readiusters. 1t would be
as sensible Ia the Democrats as In the Re-
puolicans thus TO cut the throat Of their
own party.

Gniteau, besides being member OF Ply

yesterday: " AS soon as / learned that ii

the Bible-class, who shot the President, |
took his picture down from the wall, where
IL had hung in the classroom. 1t was a
small card photograph, such as used TO be
called carte de Uisite. The custom was for
members OF the class to hang their pictures
on the wall, all in one frame. The first
