At the meeting Of the Grand Lodge OF
Knights OF Honor held last night at Pc
tersburg the fourth degree was conferred
upon all the delegates who were not pre-
sent at the last Grand Lodge. Several inn
portant committees were appointed.
A Danville letter says: The total num-
Der Of deaths in last month was 6, OF which
1 was from malarial-fever-Only1 in pop
ulation of about 10000. and yet last month
there was a panic in town about fever, and
that spread to the country.
The Lynchburg Virginian says: An inn
migrant farmer named Crank, with his
wife and seven children, passed through
the city Saturday en- route to their old
home, in Franklin county. He said he
moved with lis family to Nebraska about
two years ago, and during all that time he
has seen all OF the West he wishes to see.
Cyclones, floods, grasshoppers. and other
western visitations, proved conclusiyely to
his mind that life and prospects OF making
money were "mighty uncertain"
A Norfolk telegram says: Some time last
summer Willie OberndOrier, son OF pro-
mment lsraelite in this city, fell in love
with Miss Horgood, OF Baltimore, Gen.
tile, and married her. The couple ran
away, and the ceremony was performed in
North Carolina. The Israelites here were
much exercised over the matter at the time,
but the bride promised TO be good, and
young Oberndorier and his wife have
lived here since that time. Of late the wife
has expressed desire to embrace the re-
llgion OF her husband, and Sunday night
at 8 o'clock she was made a Jewess in the
manner prescribed in the ritual. After
this she was remarked to her husband by
the Rev. DIR. Eberson, the rabbi. The az
fair has been much talked OF here to-day.

The rrade Dollar.

Commenting upon paragraph winch
recently appeared in the Dispatch 'avor-
ing the redemption Of all trade dollars, the
Lynchburg Adpdnce says;
"Thls ought 70 have been done at hrst,
and then individuals would not have solu
them at eighty cents 10 be redeemed AFTER
wards In the hands Of purchasers ~ one
dollar. Making money by legislation Is
not only the luck but the business OF some
people. After all the deprecated money
or currency OF the Government has got
among the people and been bought up Dy
speculators It is hardly fair to tax the peo-
pie 70 paw 1t of at par except thai u was
worth par and ought TO have been mus
paid at first"
The Government has nothing to do either
with the spectators or the men who sofa
10 the SPECTATORS. Congress ought 10 iegs-
late for the benefit of all the people.
Greenbacks were worth only forty cents
in the dollar on the day the Sattle OF Get
tysburg was fought; yet the redemption
act OF 1875 provided for the redemption OF
hundreds OF millions OF dollars OF that
iorty-per-ceut. currency in good. honest,
solid gold. Was that wrong? No; IL was
right. The country has been made the
richer by its honesty. The welfare OF all
the national community was promoted by
that measure. Think what would have re-
suited IL a law had been passed providing
for the redemption o! greenbacks al forty
cents on the dollar.
Again: United States bonds were sold
during the war, some as low a. bfty per
cent. OF their face value; perhaps lower.
All OF these bonds that have fallen due
have been paid by the Governmentfn gold,
dollar for dollar. Wasn't that the right
policy TO pursued Isn't IL the right policy
still TO pursued Surely, il the country Is
to have any basis upon which to conduct
It's commerce. II Is the duty OF statesmen
to overlook advantages incidentally result
ing TO unmeritorious persons, and legislate
for the benefit Of the nation.
But no loss to the country will result
from redeeming the trade dollars. The
people will not be taxed to pay one cent
OF the cost Of transmitting trade dollars
into standard dollars. Fity-fve trade
dollars will when recoined make fifty-siX
standard dollars.
The proper committee OF the House OF
Representatives OF Congress has reported
in favor OF the measure we have advocated
so long. We are sorry to know that Mr..
BLAND. the chairman, will oppose its pas
sage: but We are confident that it will
nevertheless become law.

HERE IT Is.-Read what Hon. NATHAN
Corr prints in the Congressional Record.
He says:
"Now, it is plain TO us all that as soon as
a settlement takes place between virginia
and West Virginia that Virginia, accord
ing to the terms OF the certificates | have
lust read, becomes liable TO the holders
thereof for their payment. and that whether
she obtains anything by said adjustment
from West Virginia or not. Hence say II
is not to the interest OF Virginia TO make
this settlement. She has made most adj
vantageous contract with her creditors,
and in her present embarrassed financial
status she is not going to cancel the terms
OF that contract"
.'The people OF Virginia, her Legisla-
ture, her Governor, well knew that when
the hour Of settlement came, when the &C
count was balanced, as provided for in the
ordinance and Constitution, that the pre-
posterous claim Heretofore set up that
West Virginia was liable TO about Sl5,OOO,-
600 OF the Virginia debt would be ex-
ploded, and that it would be shown that
West Virginias portion Of the dnte-beIlum
debt was under 100000. II anything at
ALL"
"Under one million" And the Virginia
Legislature is TO go and hunt up that cone
million" for the benefit OF q New York
syndicate. Who is to pay the other twen-
ty-five millions? We have known all this
from the beginning, and we repeat once
more that there is no public man in West
Virginia who is in favor OF paying one
twentieth part OF the debt which we have
so kindly turned over to that State.

An Alliance Against England.
PROPOSED LEAGUE TO BREAK THE 81
PRENACY OF GREAT BRITAIN.

A PROPOSED LEAGUE TO BREAK THE ST.
PREMACY OF GREAT BRITAIN.
A Berlin telegram says: The German
ministerial organs associate the alliance OF
Russia, Germany, and Austria with CON-
ing league OF the Continental powers
against the maritime and commercial pre-
ponderance OF England. A notable article
appears in the Kreuz Zeitung, which pre-
diets the formation OF league, including
France, to break the insular supremacy OF
England, which, 1t says, by the annexation
OF Egypt has completed the links OF a
gigantic chain extending from Gibraltar to
China, and coiled around the body OF Eu-
rope. monopolIzing the commerce OF the
world and making the Mediterranean sea
and Indian ocean English lakes.
The Berlin Post urges France TO Join an
alliance promising more substantial bene-
fits than those arising from her relations
with England.
DIR. Busch, Under Foreign Secretary, IN
an article in the Grenz6oten, remarks that
Russia's progress towards India Is matter
Of indifference to Germany. England
he says, g Is no longer our ally. but regards
US with evident mistrust." 1t Is supposed
that these articles are indications OF di
piomatlc campaign against England.

At present, 1t is as clear as day to us that
the position OF Mr.. Randall is better than
that Of the "free-trade" wing OF the party,
both for the country and the Democratic
party Petersburg Iadez-Appeal.
And to us. We are surprised that OBJ
servant Democrats can believe it possible
TO elect to the presidency OF the United
States any man who would favor such q
measure as the MORRISON bill. But let II
be admitted that il would be possible to
elect such man, and still the unspeakablc
folly is none the less, OF those Democrats
who would read oat OF the party vOoR-
HE'S, RANDALL, PAYNE. EATON, CONVERSE,
and other leading Democrats; for certainly
no man can be elected without their as
sistance.

And yet, forsooth, because this Demo-
cratic veteran. this hero OF many a hard
fought tight, this man whom bis party has
delighted to honor, chooses to differ with
the gentleman from Illinois on Il question
al party policy, upon which the entire
Democratic party Is divided, he Is called a
traitor and threatened with political ostra-
eism. VIC rather think that before this
programme Is carried out Mr. Randall and
his friends will have something TO say
Washington Republican.
II is not the Democratic party only that
is divided. The Republican party is also
divided on this question, rs the revenue
reiormers are so fond Of Boosting. Neither
party can afford to make the tariff question
a test OF party allegiance this year.

TuAr DECISION decision OF the
Supreme Court OF the United States no.
ticed in our kilograms OF yesterday was
not clearly stated. 1t was, in effect, that
Congress has the power in time OF peace
as well as in time Of war to issue green
backs, or reissue those which are paid into
the Treasury. We have more than once
said that 1t was absurd to claim that the
Constitution could be an obstacle to their
issue In time of peace unless it was an OBJ
staclc In time OF war as well. The
Washington RepubIicon says the court de-
cided that Treasury notes, having been
redeemed in coin ut the United States
Treasury. could be reissued as currency
under the provisions Of the act of May 81,
1878, because II the acts Of Congress under
which these notes were originally issued
being constitutional and valid, the power
to reissue them and keep them in circula-
ton follows as matter OF course.

To the ELitor Of the Dispatch :


Let me say to the members of the Legis-
lature who belong to the Democratic party
that IL the bill to discriminate against
Richmond is passed, then such members
who may vote for it had better "bespeak the
plank TO make their (pOliticaD collins, as it
will surely be needed" The case is too
plain a one TO be discussed. He who is in
favor Of building up, even such good
city as Baltimore, ut the deadly expense OF
Richmond. is not OF the style OF man the
people are looking to to add to the wealth
OF our own Commonwealth. or course
rich railroads can always bring to bear
"more powerful talent TO carry out their
"schemes " than the people, who look to
their representatives only to protect the
interest OF the State.
Virginia, and Virginia cities especially.
have already suffered too much by grant
ing requests made by spectators" land
foreign to the State at that) in railroads to
make ii desirable to indulge longer in that
sort Of sport. II there is one single man
| living in any Virginia city who would
rather see Baltimore made still more pros
porous at the expense OF Richmond, then
the soul of such man would be difficult
TO find lowing to its exceeding smallness).
We know something about the effect oil
making city mere water-station, and
hence we are not willing to see passed q
bill which we are satisfied will do serious
damage TO the capital city OF our State.

AGAINST OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES AMEND
MENT TO THE CITY CHARTER-DIED FROM
HIS INJURIEs-OTHER ITEMS.
correspondence Of the Richmond Dlspatch.l
MARCH 4, 1884.
Opposition is manifesting itself here to
the proposed consolidation OF the Danyille
and Midland roads. The scheme is re-
garded as one opposed to the interests not
alone Of Richmond, but other Virginia
cities.
The City Council met in special session
This morning to consider a proposed
amendment to the city charter providing
for the appointment of 4 Board OF Street
Commissioners. The friends OF the
scheme favored immediate action, as the
Legislature is about to adjourn; but the
bill was practically killed by a motion to
print and postpone till the next regular
meeting OF the Council, which will be beld
Friday next.
George Baskerfeld (coloreD died last
night from the effects OF injuries received
the day before at the Lynchburg furnace.
He fell from the inclined track used to
convey ore to the top OF the furnace, and
had his back broken. A iellow-workman
named Sheppard Taliaferro was also Sc
riously hurt at the same time, and his re-
covery is said to be doubtful.
Bishop Whittle preached and confirmed
at Grace church last night, and this morn
ing he consecrated Christ's church. on
Daniels Hill, and afterwards administered
the rite OF confirmation.
The action Of the House OF Delegates
last night on the Normal-School measure
somewhat dlscourages the friends OF the
amendment designed to give Lynchburg Q
chance to bid for the school. All this city
wants is an opportunity. The City Coun'
Gil is perfectly willing, and even anxious
to offer inducements.
The contract for the second basin OF the
| Clay-Street reservoir has been signed, anC

fed by the Council, which will be Friday

Sn4yER.-The significant remarks quoted
below OF Mr.. ALLISON, a Republican
United States senator, must have astonish-
ed the monometallists of New York. In
the United States Senate the other day
Mr.. Butler: The complaint now is that
there is too much silver here.
Mr.. Allison: That is complaint OF some
people, and some people who do not under
Stand thoroughly what they are talking
about.

tor say so. :.
Mr.. Allison: will not so into the dis
cussion OF the silver question. | know
very well that at this moment we have
large amount OF gold coin. The Director
of the Mint tells us we have 100000, OOC
of gold coin in the United States. venture
to say that that is more gold coin than is
held by any other nation on earth this day
In other words, we are stronger in thu
basis OF our circulation than any other ma
ton is
