New YORK, March 21.-A stir was caused

soon to be arrested, and evidence in

a great falling off of inquiries and curtail-

A n. d shawl az n signal OF Danger.

A Springfield o.. I.) telegram says :;
The passenger train from Hunters Point
TO Babylon due here at 1870 yesterday,
on the Long Island railroad, had mar
row escape from being wrecked a quar-
ter of a mile west OF here. A boy
crossing the track at Locust avenue
about LEO noticed that the road-bed
had been washed out and that the
track was giving way. lie ran to a
house near by and told John Hendrick-
son, farmer, what he had seen. Hen
erickson went to the spot, and remem-
bering that train WAS due III few
minutes, he ran home, and getting red
shawl from his wife hurried down to the
track west of the curve, which is a few
hundred feet beyond the washout, just
in time TO see the train coming at full
speed. lie waved the shawl, and the
engineer reversed the engine, the train
stopping within short distance Of the
place Of danger.

The P7eadines.

We did not bring out yesterday as
clearly as we desired to do the point we
wished to make as to Judge HuGHEs's
decision and the Legislature. The in
supcrable objection to that decision is
that il commands the Auditor to receive
coupons which have not been proved to
be genuine. Judge HuoHEs says in
his opinion that he did this because the
Code Of Virginia Of 1873 provides as
follows:
"Where bill, declaration, or other
proceeding. alleges that any person
made, endorsed, assigned, or accepted
any writing, no proof of the hand
writing of such person shall be required
unless the fact be denied by an atiida-
Wit with the answer. plea, or other
pleading which puts it in issue"
So the great question of reimbursement
has been reduced toNa question Of plead
ings.
Now, all that the Legislature has to
do is TO repeal the law above quoted SO
far as it is used in coupons cases, or
rather to provide by law that the sta
tute above quoted shall not apply to
coupon cases. This is exactly what we
hold TO be the condition Of the law al
ready; but AZ Judge HUGHES refuses
to look through the spcctacles Of the
people of Virginia, our Legislature may
possibly have to comply with his wishes
in this respect.
1t requires no argument to show that
il Judge HUGHES would amend his
mandamaS, or restraining order, or
mandatory injunction, or whatever else
he may prefer to style it, so as to re-
quirc the Auditor TO receive all such
and only such coupons as have been
proved to be genuine in the manner
prescribed by law, then the State of
Virginia would have no reason to corr
plain Of the writ. 1t is because he has
set at naught the law Of the Common
wealth. and issued orders intended to
supersede statute-law. that the people
are so eloquent and so unanimous in
the judgment of condemnation which
they have visited upon him.

Forest Slaughter.

The people and the press of New
York and other eastern cities are con-
siderably exercised over the water sup
ply of their streams, and. says the St.
Louis Globe Democrat. "as this calls
up the forestry question, the whole field
of mountain denudation, forest fires,
exposure of the earth, and constant al
formation Of droughtS and floods, is be-
ing traverscd with an energy and zeal
that promise something practical as the
outcome" The same paper declares
that the most serious efforts of Congress
must be supplemented by State enact
ments in the nature Of prohibitions on
trec-cutting aud encouragement to tree
planting before the evil can be fully
met, and adds
:" The matter is certainly one Of grave
consequence, not, perhaps, to any one
individual, or to any one class Of in
dividuals. or even, it may be, to any
one generation, but to the entire cOun-
try both in its present situation and in
its prospects. IL is unfortunate. how
ever, that the very Indebtedness Of the
threatened evil is one Of its worst fea-
lures. If it menaced one man or set Of
men, one community, or even but one
State. means would be taken to avert
it but so broad is it that while one
generation does the mischief and reaps
the benefit of it, another feels the dam
age. A forest is cut down here. and
the men who do the cutting become
rich. while a thousand miles away other
men are placed in bodily peril, and see
the food sweep away the laborS of
years in an hour
The Globe Democrat is right--:he
matter is one of grave consequence. In
Pennsylvania it has taken such grave
shape that it was recently proposed in
the Legislature Of that State to exempt
from taxation certain number of acres
of woodland in every thousand in order
TO stimulate Misrepresentation. We
do not remember whether the measure
became law but it was generally re-
coenized that some step to prevent the
dcnudation Of the forests was neceS-
sity. And what is necessity in Penn
sylvania will soolf become a necessity
in Virginia, if the pence-wise-pound-
foolish policy of giving our timber
lands over to the axe by the wholesale
continues. Let the farmers convention
which meets in this city in April give
this subject careful consideration.

Why Not?

The Charlottesville Je6osoniaa says
OF the BoND decision:
lone thing is certain under this
decision it would not be long before the
State would be bankrupt, and having
gone this far, may they not order addi-
tional taxation, collect the taxes by
means of United States marshals, have
the money deposited in some bank sub
ject TO the order Of the court for the
payment Of the bondholders through a
receiver Of that cOurtf Surely if this
court has authority to say to the State
what creditors it shall pay and what it
may not, and how its funds shall be ap-
piled, 1t will have the right to adopt the
means for carrying out its decisions.
Who can say what means will be
adopted: When usurpation once be-
gins, who can tell where it will end :
This is not local question il affects
the whole country. lf it can be done
in Virginia, it may be done also in New
York. This usurpation should be met
by the State with frrnncss. We had
better be military district than the
dupes of these judicial uswpers and
would-be sstraps.'
Every word true. Nevertheless tlr
parrots who daily repeat in the New
York Republican papers what they hear
said on Wall street know no better than
TO undertake to moralize on this sub
ject for the benefit Of the heather peo-
pie Of Virginia.
