THE VIRGINIA METHOD.

They have queer way Of punctuating polit-
zeal and legal arguments in Virginia. At the
point where the argument is exhausted and a
full stop reached on either side, instead of say
ing, We rest here" according to the ordinary
formula in courts, one of the parties either calls
the other liar and waits to be challenged to
mortal combat, OF gets up, goes around the
table, and slaps his opponents face. In either
case it ia looked upon by the community in
which the occurrence takes place rs a very
proper, IL not the only proper, punctuation
with which to mark the close of legal argu-
ment or political discussion. And when 1t
comes to this the entire community rise up and
take part in the debate. This widening Of the
field and enlargement of the number of dispu-
tants has the natural effect to set other persons
to calling each other liars, sapping each others
faces and challenging each other to mortal
combat, so that constables and police officers
are kept busy until most of the citizens Of the

rather than to pay the subscription price TO the
Mercantile Library. A large proportion OF
these cheap books, however, are trashy anu
even pernicious All such are excluded from
the FREQ Circulating Library. No better
work can be done in this community IMAM
that of extending the movement began by
the founders of this institution. Boston
has valuable free circulating library
which receives $4,000 year from the city
and 1t has hadalso the benefit Of many iloersi
gifts and requests. Nearly all the New-Eng-
land cities have like advantages. Chicago'
Cincinnati and other Western cities are slinl
larry favored. 4 public-spirited citizen OIL
Baltimore not lon1 ago gave $75O,0OO to De
used for like purpose in that city. Shall the
stigma rest upon New York, the centre OF the
Nations wealth and prosperity, that it is behind
its sister cities in furnishing COED reading alike
to the rich and poor ? The spread of inteili-
gence is the great safeguard of a republic. Ii
it be true that ignorance is the basis OF misgoy-
eminent and social evils, then We know OF no
city that is in more need than New-YOrk OF
means to combat that Ignorance. Free clrcu-
lating Libraries will undoubtedly prove one of
the most efficient instruments to that end.
Therefore, whether viewed as noble charity
or in selfish light, the work OF the Free
Library Association appeals to all who are con-
cerned for the welfare of the metropolis.

Nevertheless, as will be seen by reference to an
other page, it was by no means generally ne
elected. The bump OF reverence is not well

number of his children on each recurring

lude that the gradual decadence of this annlver-
