That's a common express

meaning. How much suf-
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
1t IS, that pam IN the back
is occasioned by SO many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver COM
plant, consumption, cold,
rheumatism, dyspepsia, over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever the cause, don't
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that

siye preparations for the entertainment OF
the grand bodies. The Grand Chapter will

As has been announced, Hon. John f..
Massey will discuss jointly with Captain
Wise the issues OF the campaign at Apo
mattoX Courthouse next Thursday. On
the occasion Of his recent visit to this city
Mr.. Massey was interviewed by your cor
respondent. and seemed immensely amused
at the idea Of his being afraid or unwilling
to debate with his RCadiuSter-RCpublican
opponent. He freely conceded Captain
Wise's abilities, but said he was on the
wrong side, and cannot, lie thinks, sustain
himself before the people.
Yesterday the chairman OF the Council
Committee on Fire Department purchased
a lot on Fifth street between Clay and
Madison, on which it is proposed to erect
new fre-engine house. The price paid
was 81, 800.
The Street Committee has been directed
by the Council to consult with the Camp
bell county authorities relative to the i'm
provement CT the Concord and Lynchburg
turnpike at cost of about $1,000. This
road was utterly ruined by The building OF
the Richmond and Allegheny railroad, and
its dangers have deferred many OF the
country people from bringing their pro-
duce and tobacco to this market, and
forced others to take different routes,
miles out OF their way.
Mr.. William 5. Gregory has been elected
second book-keeper at the First National
Bank OF Lynchburg rice Samuel L. Withers,
elected teller OF the Commercial.
Thirty-seyen thousand six hundred and
odd dollars were collected in this internal

The sales OF tobacco for last week
amounted to ,270 pounds-a decrease.

A Question.

The general impression would seem TO
be that less than quorum has the power
under the Constitution to adjourn the
House of Representatives. In point OF
fact, less than quorum has no doubt often
adjourned that body. But such an ad-
Is unconstitutional, and be-
comes effective only because nobody makes
the point that there is no quorum. The
Federal Constitution expressly provides
that IN either House less than quorum
"may adjourn from day to day,"-which
Is equivalent to providing that less than q
quorum shall not adjourn the House
"without day" (sine die.)
The Philadelphia Telegraph, 1ndepend-
ent Republican, gives Mr.. Speaker REFER
a back-handed compliment when It says
"Tbe obstacle would be serious one

man az severe consciousness, who was
dctermined 20 do his whole duty by the

ards. or were there any considerable num-

floor of the House. There is nothing In
Speaker Refers record, however, to mill
tate against the belief that he is fully equal
to the manufacture of quorum for the
purpose of securing Sinadie adjourn
ment, especially as he will be able to rely
with a great deal Of confidence on no very
vigorous opposition to such fraudulent
proceeding being made on the floor OF the
House."
The question was not raised yesterda!

so Congress adjourned in violation OF the

ton was not violated because nobody
called attention to the want Of quorum :

The Board of Directors of the Central
Iunatic ASYLUM visited the Wilson farm,
in Dinwiddie county, day or two ago. IN
company with the Council committee, ana
located The spot on which 1t Is proposed to
erect the asylum buildings. A plan Tor
the main building, IL Is understood, has
been selected, and drawings are being made
bv one Of our city architects. As soon as
these drawings and specifications are COM
pleted. which will be in few days, the
hoard will advertise for bids for building
the asylum. =,
There are only about ninety teachers In
attendance at the Colorcd Institute now
beinp held here. One hundred and sixty
were expected, and probably some OF them
may vet come, Some comment has been
caused among those who are conducting
the Institute, as well as others, at the abb
sence of the state Superintendent 81 Public
Instruction, who il was expected would be
hero TO omen the Institute and to assist In
lis conduct. He has not yet been here, and 1t
is not known whether he will come at all.
Instructive exercises are given the teach
ers each day, and lectures and music are
hereafter to be introduced.
A good deal OF interest is being mani
tested rs to the nomination for Congress 10
be made by the Coalition Convention at
R,rkeville on the 10th. The county dele
cations thus far selected seem to be DIVIDED
among the five pronounced candldates-
viz. w, n. Stevens, A. w. Harris, and NJ.
X. De Mortie (coloredD, and Dr. Jorgensen
and Mr.. Hooper (white). There is strong
feeling among the colored people OF the
district i'm favor OF the nomination OF
man Of their own race for Congress, ana
the indications are that colored man will
receive the nomination. A strong OPPOSE
ton exists to the nomination OF DR.. Jor-
gensen.
The police Of this city last evening ar
rested a Chesterfield negro named Austin
Laws, charged with committing an outrage
on the person Of a colored girl named Polly
Uaines, i'm that county. He IS lodged IN
iail here, and will be brought before the
Mayor tomorrow morning for examination.
The amount OF tax paid by exporters OF
manufactured tobacco in this city during
the fiscal year ending June so, 1857,
amounted to S2,577.l0, or an average OF q
little over 5000 per month. And this IS

An alarm of fire on Friday night was
found to proceed from Mr.. j. b. Andrews's
residence. 1t appeared that an old servant
was ascending the stairs with Kerosene
lamp when it either exploded or she let ii
fall, it is not clear which, and the oil taking
fire envelopcd her in sheet OF flame. A
Young lady in the house threw a blanket
over her, and assistance coming in imme-
diately, the flames were eXtinguished, but
not before the old colored woman, Millv
Todd, was fatally burned. She died YES

international Exhibition at Amsfer'
dam I'm 1888.

Some months AGO we announced this EX-
hibition placed under the high patronage
of II. NJ. King of the Netherlands, Will
i,o,, IU Sf1Jl
Upon the official invitation Of the Dutch
Government, the foreign Powers, as also
the United States, have given their entire
adhesion to this undertaking.
One of the greatest colonial Powers in
the world has had the courage to arrange
for great Colonial international EXhlbi-
ton. something which up to the present no
other nation has done.
His EXcelency the Minister OF the Colo
MES is the President OF Honor OF the En-
hibition, enough to indicate the value and
inheritance which will be attached to the
principal ard fundamental part OF the tx
hibition.
Let us pass to the second part OF it
that has character especially interesting
for us, after our brilliant successes at Paris
and elsewhere. After having astonished
the world with the marvellous progress OF
our industry-after having from abroad
imported the secrets of invention, we have
transformed and perfected the old pro-
ceedings, so that now we conquer the most
important markets Of Europe.
Our powerful production has already
found very important outlets, and we are
TO I've careful to maintain our rank, 10 eX-
tend our relations, and to spread the arti-
cles OF our manufacture.
Amsterdam is one OF the most important
commercial centres in Europe, and it seems
to us that in this point OF view America
ought to be especially interested to partici-
pate largely in the second section OF this
Exposition.
The Old World enyies us, and is jealous
Of the practical side OF our character. Let
us show her once more that we neglect no
occasion to sustain competition and to
penetrate to her very heart-tO take these
our products which have so often before
carried away the victory.
Our Government is taking the necessary
measures. and the Consuls OF the Neither
lands have all information ut the disposition
OF those interested.
