RICHMOND
Settling Trouble Between Legis-
lator and an Editor.

RICHMOND, Januery 21.-The Dis
patch, Thursday, published an arti-
Gle regarding the strange proceed
ings of the legislature in connection
with the smallpox panic. On the
same day, Delegate James A. Frazier,
of Rockbridge, arranged a dispatch
publication, saying: " The course
of his remarks for long years are well
known, and whenever the Dispatch
wants to say anything particularly
mean of those who oppose the editor
it goes out of the way to copy arti
cles, thus avoiding position of res
possibility" Fraziers remarks were
published in the Wing yesterday, and
this mornings Dispatch reproduces
the paragraph above quoted, and sup
plements it with the folio wing:
1--WE have only to say of Jim
Fraziers antics, that breach OF
peace would certainly follow such
language. Warrants were issued
for the arrest of Capt. W. F. Drink
ard, editor Of the Dispatch, and Fra
zier About; and Drinkard was in his
sanctum. And while in the counting
room of the Dispatch arranging for
some one to accompany to the mag
istrate, Frazier came in with Frick.
He was placed under arrest. There
was no necessity for it, as he had
come to make an explanation. He
then, in presence of Frick, SO ex>
planned his published remarks as to
satisfy Capt. Drinkard. and the latter
then withdrew his epithet of liar.
An amicable settlement having thus
been reached, both parties were re,
leased from custody.
The Senate to day passed the bill
ordering the payment of the public
school fund of 100000 of money
realized from the sale of the States
interest in the Atlantic, Mississippi
and Ohio Railroad. The remaining
100000 of said sale to be held in
the treasury, as special deposit, in
tended for the establishment and
maintenance of the normal school
for the education of colored teachers.

A Young Woman Taken From
the Grave.
Doubtful Story of the Murder Of
a Woman


a Woman.
New YoRK, January 21.-A Lynch
burg (Va.) special states that the
body of young woman named
Fleishman, which was buried about
January 1st, near Pamplin's Depot,
in Apponattox County, has been
taken from the grave and carried
away without any clue being left as
to the motive of the deed OF perpe-
traitors.
Another Lynchburg special tells a
strange and doubtful story of the
murder of a woman near Central
Depot, Montgomery County, on the
Norfolk and Western Railroad, last
Wednesday. On that day woman,
whose name is not given, received a
sum of money, and was known to
have it in her possession. She took
it to her house, where gentleman
occupied room in the upper part of
the building. Hearing loud and
threatening noise during the night,
this man came down stairs and found
the landlady lying dead on the floor
of her apartment, with her throat
cut. The story goes on to relate
that the man followed the murderers
with a double -barrelled gun and shot
two persons, who proved to be
women disguised in male apparel,
and VINO had visited the house for
the purpose of securing the money.

Hygieaic Value of Mirth.

But, aside from all this, mirth has an
hygienic value that can hardly be over
rated while our social life remains what
the slavery of vices and dogmas has
made it. Joy has been called the SUM-
shine of the heart, yet the same sun that
calls forth the flowers of plant is also
needed to expand its leaves and ripen its
fruits and without the stimulus of ex-
hilarating pastimes perfect bodily health
is as impossible as moral and mental
vigor. And, as sure as a succession of
uniform crops will exhaust the best soil,
the daily repetition of a monotonous oc-
cupation will wear out the best man.
Body and mind require an occasional
change of employment, or else a liberal
supply of fertilizing recreations. and
this requirement is factor whose omis-
sion often foils the arithmetic of our po-
htical economist.
To the creatures of the wilderness af-
Fiction comes generally in the form of
impending danger-famine or persistent
persecution; and under such circumstan-
ces the notifications of the vital pro-
cess seem to operate against its long con-
tinuance well-wishing nature sees her
purpose defeated, and the vital energy
flags, the sap of life runs to seed. On
the same principle an existance of Joy
less drudgery seems to drain the springs
of health, even at an age when they can
draw upon the largest inner resources
hope, too often baffied, at last withdraws
her aid the tongue may be attuned to
canting hymns of consolation, but the
heart cannot be deceived, and with its
sinking pulse the strength of life Gibbs
away. Nine-tenths Of our city children
are literally starving for lack Of recre-
alton not the means of life, but its OBJ
ject, civilization has defrauded them of
they feel want which bread can only
aggravate, for only hunger helps them
to forget the misery Of ennui. Their
pallor is the sailow hue of cellar-plant;
they would be healthier if they were
happier. I would undertake to cure
sickly child with fun and rye-bread
sooner than with tidbits and tedium. -

GUIT'EAU.
Scoville Concludes his Five Days
Speech.
The Assassin Speaks His Piece.

WASHINGTON, January 20.-Mr.
Scoville resumed his argument to-
day. He called attention to the
testimony of DR.. Hamilton, and said
that from the start he had perverted
his own testimony and studiously
made use of the strongest adjectives,
showing the intensity of his feelings
against the prisoner. He pointed
out several instances where DR.. Ham
ilton had used strong adjectives,
where none were needed. Mr.. SEQ
vile continued to review the evidence
and was frequently interrupted by
District Attorney Corkhill, and sew,
eral word passages took place be-
tween them.
Scoville had scarcely commenced
his argument, when he was inter-
rupted by the prisoner. Guiteau had
been busily engaged in reading his
papers, when he suddenly took ad-
vantage of pause, and called out
"The District Attorney has run out
of money. He can't pay these fell
lows till he can get an extra appro-
priation from Congress. They had
better have stayed in New
York. They will go home with
less money than they expected" :"
Scoville Then proceeded to answer
the argument of Judge Porter, and
to point out to the jury the fallacy
of the argument which he predicted
Judge Porter would advance to sup
port them in the prosecution and Sc
cure the hanging of Guiteau. In
conclusion he said: 'It has often
been found that jury trials are a
failure, and I have in my practice
frequently heard it said that jury
trials ought to be abolished, because
jurors make mistakes, because
they are influenced by advocates,
because they are influenced not by
justice. The last address. But gen
tlemen, l thank God that there was a
time when men stood up against in
justice, and wrestled from u despotic
Judge the right of the jury, and l
have never yet seen the tlue when l
would wish to see that rightabollshed
l feel more secure and more safe in
this mode of administering justice
than III any other. AS jurles are con
structed 1t is not required that you
should have read Keith or Blackstone
1t requires that you should have
honest principles and clear heads in
all that you should see free from
prejudice, and decide for. the right
regardless of what may follow
This is what l shall expect of you
gentlemen, and I believe you will dC
it. 1 leave the case with you. Gen
tlemen 1 thank you for your kind at
tention.
At the conclusion of Scoville'
address, District Attorney Corkhil
withdrew his objection to Guitea7
addressing the court, and Judg
Cox announced that he would per
nit HIM to speak; he will probabl,
do SO tomorrow.
WASHINGTON, January 21.-In tn
Guiteau trial to day the prisone
made few interesting remarks, an,
then made bis speech as published OF

NORFOLK, Va, january 20.-Twen-
ty-three cases of smallpox are
in the city and suburbs.
Thus far the disease is confined to
the colored population. A colored
seaman died from the disease ten
days ago, and the colored people, not
knowing it was small pox, gave him
large funeral, and so spread the
contagion. Stringent measures for
vaccination are beng taken.
