The Virginia Iron shipbuilding Company.

10 the edttor OF the Alexandria Gazette:
The Virginia Iron Shipbuilding Compa'
ny, so far from having collapsed, is in better
shape to day than ever before, and is ready
to begin work at any time. We cannot do
the impossible. The iron industries Of the
country have been either curtailing their
products or closing altogether, and there
has been no time during the past year and
half when new concern could success'
fully commence operations in any depart
ment of iron manufacture. The same Is
true of shipbuilding. Nearly all the yaTts
in this country are closed and it is reported
that there are no orders on the Delaware
The same is true i'll England as well. Tie
majority of the workmeu on the Mer5ey
and the Clyde have been discharged. As
to the executive of this country having any
thing to do with the success or failure OF
he volume Of business in any branch, any
child who knows any thing of the autono'
my of our government would see at once
the idiocy of such statement.

THAT THE jury system Is as great a hum
bug in England as in this country is proved
by the fact that jury in London last
Saturday rendered verdi t for $4,000
damages in favor of maa who had sued
Lord Coleridge for libel because the Lords
son had written private letter to his own
sister, advising her against marrying the
man who brought the suit aud giving her
his opinion of that mans character. The
verdict, of course, was set aside, for if it
had stood it would have travestied not only
all law, but common sense, by rendering
every brother who might tell his sister what
he knew of her suitors liable for damages.

Simon Strausser, the republican judge OF
election in the disputed precinct of the
Eighteenth ward in Chicago, who made
affidavit that the figures in the poll-book
had been changed since his signature was
affixed, now makes another affidavit, saying
that the first was procured from him by
false pretences; that be thought it was q
transcript of bis testimony before the grand
Jury; that be was sick and under the isfiu-
ence of chloral that he does not know how
many votes were cast for Leman or Brand,
and that he saw no evidence OF fraud

WHILE EVEN such slaunch supporters OF
Mr.. Blaine in the recent campaign as the
Commercial Advertiser of New York, and all

party ties that they remained loyal to MI
Blaine, disapprove and censure his late Sec
tional speech, General Malone, by the
mouth of his organ, endorses every word OF
that incendiary harangue, and terms it
magnificent speech, which marks an era in
the progress of the country, and it is well
coined with one loud and emphatic acclaim
of approval by the republicans, the liberals
and all patriots, with their organs, NIL the

AS THE Spanish treaty removes the duty

them By admitting some raw materials free,
aud by enlarging their market, it meets the
almost unanimous and unqualified approval

too, though it is free trade treaty.

SINCE PRESIDENT CLEvELAND's election
the old rumor to the effect that Senator
Riddleberger intends coming back to the
democratic party has been revived. 1t is
strengthened by the fact tha: in the edi-
torial columns of the las. issue of the Sena-
tors newspaper he copies one OF the GA
zErTE's editorials, and endorses it emphat-
ically by assuming it's authorship. One of
the FIRST evidences of conversion is the use
of biblical ideas and expressions.
