a Prudent and Sensible COngrega-
ton.

One of the most prudently managed
churches in the city is the Assembly's Pres
byterisn Church, corner of Fifth and 1
streets northwest, Rev. George o. Little
pastor. This congregation makes it o point
to square up everything once a year, SO as
to start each new year free of debt. The
present fiscal year of the church began
April i, and the treasurer's report showed
that every claim had been promptly met
and the new year begun without the
church owing one cent, condition of affairs
that is as pleasant to the congregation as it
is creditable to the board of trustees. There
is no doubt but that such policy adds
much to the usefulness of church. The
Assembly's is growing, progressive
church, and is constantly extending the
area of its influence for good.

islates and administers for thegood of the
people-the promotion of their prosperity,
the advancement of the State-the develop
ment Of her wonderful resources-and the
contentment and happiness Of the con-
stituent body,..it should be supported and
upheld.
1t is these results in State affairs that are
called Mahoneism, audit is the results in
national matters, we have cited, that Ma
hone is said to sympathize with
And because of this the Bourbon press is
industrious in trying to arouse prejudice
agains Gen. Malone and the Readjasters,
because, they say. they are in accord with
the Republican party and will support that
party in 1884. We have no authority to
speak for the Readiusters beyond State at
fairs. In these they will stand to the work
they have done, and the Republicans VIII
stand with them, let them be called the
fruits Of Coalition, Radicalism, Black Re-
publicanism, or any other name Bourbon
hate and Bourbon chagrin may choose to
invent. We know the State has been the
beneficiary. We know the people have
been lightened OF their burdens; doubts
and disbursements made to give way to
certainties and prosperity. and it is a matter
OF practical Indifference what the name OF
the party may be which effected them,
so the people receive the tangible benefits.
When this cry OF Radicalism or Republic
can ism or Mahoneism is boiled down. we
see what it means. 1t means National and
State progress, prosperity and wealth, and
it is these that the :.Bourbons oppose, be-
cause they entrench in power the political
force which brings.them about. The peo-
pie are not so obtuse that they cannot I'm.
derstand this. They know that every meas
ure and every legislative enactment that
have contributed to Nationa! and State adj
vancement, have been opposed by the Bour-
bons of the Nation and the Bourbons OF
Virginia. They know that it is not safe to
commit to their control reforms that have
been consummated in defiance OF their OPP
position, and for this reason, all the clam
or and sneers and epithets about Radical
ism and Mahoneism will amount to moth
ing, for these terms represent reforms
[ which have been effected for the public
good, and will be far-reaching in their rela.
ton to the advancement of the State. All
the people have to do is to bring their
minds down to resuHs-what has been &C.
complished in national and local sense,
by Republicans and Readjusters, affecting
the welfare OF the State and Nation, am
the relation the Bourbons bear to these re.
suits. Compare the records, and then
determine their duty in the prem ises-
whether it is to support Bourbon ism, with
its barren fruits or the Readjusters, or
Coalition, or Mahoneism, Or Radicalism,
as 1t may suit Bourbon taste to determine,
with the vast benefits and rich returns that
have been vouchsafed, as the trophies of its
legislation and admin istration.
