ALEXANDRIA, VA.
WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY p.

THERE Is u bill now pending III The Leg
j.lature which proposes to give the Rich
moud Medical College an annuity OF S0,ooo
on coalition Of its furnishing free tuition to
as many students as there are members III
the TWO houses of the General Assembly,
each deierate and senator having the right
OF appointing one such beneficiary. TO this
bill lie many grave objections. The two
chief arguments against it seem the follow"
ing: Professional education ought not
10 be paid for by the State, because it is
pluiuly wrong needlessly 10 impose upon
The lax payer any such burden. There are
too many doctors now; thrice MS many III
proportion TO population rs there are III
England, aud nearly five times as many as
there are in Austria, the country OF highest
medical standard. There is no sense, if
there were justice, in taking the peoples
money to Increase supply already largely
in excess Of the demand. Not only are
there too many physicians now, but the
general tendency of the time is VIGOROUSLY
to leave agricultural and industrial pursuits
aud seek the professions. Shall this most
unfortunate tendency be increased by the
stimulus of free tuition at the expense of the
taxpayers? Shall the plumber physicians
without practice be thus needlessly enlarg,
ed? Let the Medical College at Richmond
by all means have the annuity desired, and
more if possible, the better to further its
work construction in the noble science TO
which it is devoted, but let the instruction
be paid for by the student as heretofore. To
furnish it o. herwise is not only to appropri-
ate public money unjustly, but to do posi-
tive harm

THE PREVAILING impression among the
more intelligent aud thoughtful men of the
country seems to be that instead Of making
the Commissioner Of Agriculture L Cabinet
officer, as is proposed, the powers of that
officer should be considerably reduced-that
i, of course, as at present conducted I'm
mense sums Of money have been squandered
ny the department in expensive expert
mcnts upon sorghum and tea raising. 1t is
said that nearly all the employees of that
department are from one State-MaSsachu-
sets; and, if what Il well-known Firginian
in Washington says be true, the present
Commissioner knows just as much about
practical agriculture as IL COW does about
camp meeting.

GEN. MALONE will brook no symptom OF
objection to his undisputed sway, and visits
the sins Of the fathers in that respect even
upon their children. Judge Rives was a
whig before the war. Ever since then he
has been republican, and is the ex-federaI
Judge who, before he resigned, rendered
himself conspicuous by having State judges
arrested for refusing to put negroes on ju-
ries. He believes in republicanism, but not
in Mahoueism, aud naturally objects to the
domination Of the republican party in Fir-
gina by democratic scalawag, q man who
few years ago was among the most ultra
and proscriptive democrats in the State,
and who only severed his connection with
the democrats when he became convinced
that they knew him too we'll to advance
him politically, aud because be saw in repu-
diation and the solid negro vote the means
by which he could attain such advancement
outside the democratic party. For such ob
lection on the part of the Judge, his son,
who was clerk of the L. S. Court for the
-'c.tss.::.: district of Virginia, has been re-
moved And yet there are white men IN
Virginia, who call themselves republicans,
who, apparently at least, willingly train
with the General aud his negro cohorts.
That The negroes should follow him is ma
tural for they are always happier under a
hard master, but that white republicans
should lie his slaves goes far to sustain what
