INDIAN GRAVES TO ORDER.-So deter
mined, indeed, are some of these fabri-
Gators Of frauds, that the following Incl
dent is worthy of being published, to show
the ingenuity they exercise in their pecu
liar calling. To discover an Indian grave
is Of course q red-letter day for the arch
nologist. Now, Indian graves are m2nufac-
tured to order, it would appear. At
least the following recently occurred
in New jersey. A Philadelphia
Flint Jack secured half-decayed skeleton
from q Potter's field in the vicinity, and
placed it in a shallow excavation on the
wasting bank of a creek in New Jersey
where Indian relics were frequently found.
With it he placed steatite tobacco pipe
of his own make, a steatite carving
of an eagles head and beads
with these were thrown numbers
of genuine arrow-heaSs and fragments
of pottery. The earth was blackened with
powdered charcoal. This "plant" was
made in November, and in the following
March, during the prevalence of high wa
tiers and local freshets. he announced to an
enthusiastic collector that he knew the To-
cation of an Indian grave, and offered to
take him thither for so, the money to be
paid if the search proved successful, which
of courseit did. The Uranium of that Phila-
delphia pauper passed through several era
niologists hands and was gravely remarked
upon as of unusual interest, as it was q
marked dolichocephalic skull, whereas the
Delaware Indians were brachycephalic !

WHOM THEY TRUsT.-Two old colored

has placed US and where He watches over
US as parent watches over a child2 This

Odd you read the report to the Senate
of California on the resolution of inquiry
by Senator Greed Raymond on the Chinese
question ?
A.-Yes, sir. If the committee making
that report and the Morton Congressional
Committee had found one man among all
the ex-Ministers and ex-Consuls aud ex-
missionaries to China, who would have
given them this one word. ''patriarchism, ="
the secret of Chinese slavery or coolie labor
could have been known long ago. 1t is the
spring and source and underlying power of
all the Chinese evil-so called-against
which the " Restriction Act is aimed. 1t
explains other things, otherwise mys-
terry; it explains the extreme conservatism
of the Chinese people; why they remain
stationary despite long contact with other
peoples; why they are just what they were
thousands of years ago. No man has a
voice in affairs until he is old, blind, gray
and tottering. Such a man in China al
WAYS looks behind, instead of in front of
him. He clings instinstively to the things

BEATEN TO DEATH

By her mistress. The Archdeacon COM
planned to the Council of Elders. and they
looked upon him with establishment, and
replied that the mistress had not exceeded
her authority, though she had mutilated
her with an old pair of shears. and ripped
up her bowels and parts, and horribly tor
tured the poor creature.
Q.-But where is the lawful authority to
kill written down?
A.-Section 3l4 of the Tartar penal code
reads that the master of refractory slave, or
his relatives, may chastise it, but if he kills
while chaStising in the manner prescribed
by the law, he is not to be held liable
therefor
Q.-But suppose a slave escapes
A.-The whole power of the Government
would be exerted for his capture, and the
scverest punishment inflicted by the of
ficials for the attempt TO escape. Section
ZIG of the Code provides that, 'if female
slave deserts, she shall be punished with
50 blows and she shall be restored to her
master. Whoever harbors fugitive slave,
knowing the person to be such, shall par
ticipate in the punishment except in cap
ital cases, when the punishment shall be
reduced one degree Again Section, 327 =:
"A slave guilty of addressing any abusive
language to his master shall suffer death
by being strangled at the usual period, "

given blows in punishment, and other and
even severer punishment.

SectiOnalism is to be deprecated. In
national affairs we have had enough Of
it-enough to seriously disturb the on
going Of our aifairs--enOugh to excite
grave fears for the perpetuity Of our
institutions. In State matters, for OBJ
vious reasons, its spirit can never be
so bitter. nor its influence for evil
so great. But even here it can di-
vide aims and insure defeat. There
is, however, a difference between
sectionalism and generous ri
valry between different sections of
q common State for the common
good. Each portion may have and does
have its favorite sons, best known and
best esteemed. Under other circum-
stances we might insist upon their
recognition. But we are in a crisis the
perils Of which We need not Under
estimate. We have struck the enemies
and traitors to our State, but we have
not Destroyed them. Grave issues are
rising before US, to meet which will re-
quire all the skill and craftsmanship
that We can push to the front.
We will, therefore, 60 into the nomi-
mating convention with a broad Virginia
spirit, earnestly desiring to find the
man who, with the highest qualities Of
manhood and craftsmanship. can COM
msnd the largest support. 10 him,
whether with or against our sectional
feelings, we are prepared to give our
most earnest efforts.
AS to the manner Of ascertaining the
mind Of the people, we like the sugges-
ton of the Dispatch, endorsed by the
Lynchburg Ners, that the nomination
be not made until the day after all
names have been presented to the Con-
vention, and until the delegates have
had time to weigh patiently, seriously,
and deliberately their rival claims.
The eloquence Of the orator, the blare
of brass bands and torchlights will

hammer-like attachment at the other,
moves downward whenever disturbed
from position Of absolute rest. Inc
force Of spring adjusted under the
arm furnishes the reaction, and the os-
cillaticn is repeated with every step
taken by the wearer. This is trans
mitted to the lock Of the handspring
barrel by the wheel, the circumference
ofwhich is adapted to the clutch OF dog
that" holds fast all itgets, " and the most
ordinary walking exercise upon the part
Of the wearer serves to wind it up full.
The watch when used for the first time
is wound with key, but never after is
a key required if the watch is worn
regularly by any one of the most mode
rate habits Of peregrination. The square
case is essential to the successful action
of the self-winding apparatus. for the
reason that it must stand horizontally,
and this can only be when the watch
has an upright position in the pocket.
Upon the face of the watch is the
small dial of manometer, which con-
stanuy indicates the tension to which
the spring is wound, and by glance
the wearer Of the watch may tell for
how many hours the watch is wound.
The running capacity of the I" Marche-
Marche." when fully wound, is sixty
hours. as is indicated by the manome-
ter when its hand points to the nun.
Der at the top of the dial. The
amount of exercise required to
wind it full is represented by
six miles walking. The advan-
tage urged in the automatic winding
mechanism in the absence Of the hazard
in missing trains and sowing seeds of
dlssension in the family by late arrival
at dinner because Of forgetfulnesS or
negligence in the matter OF winding the
watch. The absence OF necessity for
any contact of human hands with the in
terror Of the watch is urged as an addi-
tional argument for durability, and its
shape which at first seems odd, is better
adapted to rich and artistic decoration.
The " Marche- Marche is entirely a
handmade watch. and is consequently
model Of perfection in the chrome
metric art. the expense Of which is the
chief barrier to its speedy introduction
to general use. The patentees are A.
Bourgeois & Co., of Switzerland. who,
aside from having taken several medals
upon the "Marche- Marche," were
awarded the diploma Of honor OF
Zurich recently.

The Richmond ana DanviIie Railroad
I'm Georgia.

/ 4 Columbus GA special to the Tri-
6u.e says: The people Of Middle Geor-
gia are worked up into fever over the
question OF the building of new rail-
road across the State. Some time ago
the people of Columbus conceived the
idea of building through line from
that city to Atlanta. The project met
with encouragement, and the new
line was called the " Georgia Mid
land" Just at the time when the
Atlanta people were congratulating
themselves on having secured the
lire, influential residents Of Athens.
Ga. backed by the Richmond and Dan
Vile Railroad Company, made pro-
position to the Columbus capitalists to
build the new road to Athens instead
of to Atlanta. 1t was said that by so
doing the line to Griffin, thence to
CovingtOn. and from there to Athens
would open a rich cotton country in
the interior of Georgia, and that the
Richmond and Danyile would offer
better inducements than Atlanta would
do. A committee of Atlanta capital
lists has arrived here to straighten
matters out and protect the interests
of the " Gate" City.
Behind this movement on the part Of
the Richmond and Danyille the railroad
men Of the South see a deep motive.
Columbus IS in the territory of the
Georgia Central railroad, which COM
pany recently acquired control Of the
Greenyille and Laurens road, in South
Carolina. thus entering the heart Of the
country heretofore exclusively the ter
ritory of the Richmond and Danyille.
The Central company obtained the
lease of this South Carolina road
after bitter fight against the men and
money Of the Richmond and Danvillc
Syndicate. Now the latter will retail
ate by striking into one Of the most
valuable parts of the Central's system.
The movements will be watched with
interest, as millions Of dollars, not
alone Of Georgia. but Of northern mo-
ney, is invested in the roads interest
ed. Northern capital has been SUBJ
scribed to the proposed line from Co
| lumbus to Atlanta, most Of the invest
ors being New Workers and Phlladel-
| phians.
