We were most agreeably surprised o few
days since to meet with an old fellow towns
man in the person of Mr. Nelson II. Belle, fol
many years past resident OF the city of Bali
more. His father, Mr.. John Belle, erected the
first store house in the village in which the
mercantile business was conducted by him in
company with Mr.. James Frazier of jennings
Gap, about fifty-six years ago. Our friend
Belle seems to be in good state of preserva-
ton and has been quite actively engaged for
some time purchasing horses in Virginia for
the use of the city car company of Baltimore
"a large number of horses being required.
MIR. Belle has wisely chosen to buy them in
Virginia whose horses are so noted for their
superior qualities of endurance We under
stood him to say he had about 100 horses to
buy yet. He has engaged the services of Mr..
Hugh II. Hanna an experienced dealer liy-
ing near the village.
Personal.-We learn that two of our neigh
borhood bellies, Misses Effle and Kate Buck,
daughters of the late N. 1. Buck, deceased who
owned the elegant farm near the village, have
gone to Winchester to attend the Fair and
visit their relatives near that city. ITEMS.

EASY CHAIRs.-That veteran chair-maker,
Mr. John l.. Beard. of Parnassus, took the pre-
i,nim at the Fair, for the best chairs. There
was no premium more deserved, for the pro-

pegarued as the very best. Specimens ofthese
rirgant chairs can be seen at B. F. Hughes
drug store. They are the easiest and best
chairs that can be used.

$50, 1000 to meet pressing wants, and to take
1t off the annual appropriation. 1t was
granted. Shortly after he received a letter
from Col. Bumgardner, President of the Board
at the A sylum, stating that this should not be
done-that the necessities of the Institution
would not allow it. 1t was ascertained that
the Asylum had f1oa ting debt of $4,000, and
owed the banks $4,000 bearing 6 per cen in
terest, and instead of charging the annual ap-
propriat ion with the $4,000, it had to be in
creased $4,000, and the banks and floating
debt provided for. Without rejecting upon
the management, the speaker stated the facts
as illus trative of the cause which Influenced
him to withhold the appropriation bill. Other
institutions, notably the Military Institute
had arrearagesto meet, and it was thought wise
to ascertain their entire Indebtedness, which
had accumulated under Bourbon management
of State affairs, and clean it up. 1t was found
that the Military Institute had a debt che
from students of S65 900, as the record showed
something that should not have been allowed
when the State appropriated $4,000 for its
support.
VI course we have not pretended to give
an outline of the instructive and able speech
OF Capt. Riddleberger, consuming nearly two
hours in its delivery. 1t was Just such speech
as the people wished to hear-a candid intel.
ligent statement of measures, legislation and
policy There were many points which we have
not touched on, but which his hearers have
lodged in their minds and which will influence
and direct their judgment in the approaching
election. There was nothing of boast or bluste,
nothing of the tiippant lemagogue, seek

Governor Cameron of Virginia has
exploded the falsshoods 50 freely utter
ed relative to Virginia's debt by his
message to the Legislature. He Pro-
poses, in definite terms, that Tirginia's
part of the debt, including interest,
less than the amount actually paid,
shall be provided for. This is business.
What is thus meant can be clearly
stated. The people of Virginia hold
that AS sne-third of the territory of the
State was set off NJ West Virginia one
third OF the debt goes with it. Also,
that in place of compromising interest
simple interest should be charged. And
the sum thus made up it proposes to
provide for in full. The governor is Of
the opinion that , per cent. is all the
State can pay on its debt, and the pro-
position, therefore, is to fund the
debt at that rate Of interest named. This
is certainly not reputation. 1t is ques
ton, of curse, over which creditor and
debtor may differ. as to what rate of
int. est shall be allowed. But this is
not Reputation. On the contrary it is
far better for the creditors that definite
steps shall be taken to provide for the
debt than to drift OH as has been done
in the past. The Readjusters are keep
ing faith. Their attitude as to the
debt has not beer secret. They have
openly and clearly stated their position
all along, aud now that they have gain
ed power propose to act as they have
talked. All this looks like COED faith.
And if they carry out their plans as pro
posed the result will be to dispose OF the
debt of Virginia h%onorabIy and forever
set 1T rest all talk Of reputation.

Mince. A comely squaw presided over
his household. and three pretty half
breed children called him father. To
bis guest lie confessed the fact that he
had bought this woman at Standing
Rock agency for a horse. He purchas-
ed her rs q substitute for his wife
whom he had bought several years ago,
married, oyerwOrked, and maltredted
until she ran away. The squaw is
kept hard at work, and the husband or
master does not allow her to sit at the
same table with him, and beats her
whenever he pleasss. What Mince has
done is a common thing among his
neighbors. "This system of female
slavery" says Boyton, lis much more
extensive than the public generally sup
poses. Scores of white men are accu-
mulating wealth from the physical Ia
Dor of these poor women and their chill
dren." Boyton says that a few years
G a white woodcutter bought a IL
years old Indian girl for $50 at tire
Berthold agency, and it was regarded
there as an ordinary business transac-
ton. AS all the half-breed children
are entitled to rations and clothing
from the Indian agencies, the impor-
lance Of this immoral slavery, as to
mere matter Of governmental economy,
is self-evidsnt. This is a phase of the
Indian question which is kept in the
background, but it lisa fruitful source
of evil and misery which demands i'm
mediate attention:
