Lord ChurchiII's Blunders.


LONDON, July 3l.--The Standard,
which is the accepted Tory organ, uses
the following language in its attack on
Lord Randolph Churchill as the leader
Of the Conservative party: "To speak
plainly, Lord Randolph Churchill has
been pulled in the press with admirable
sssiduity by well-organized clique,
which is always ready to cry 'Prodi-
gious' whenever he opens his mouth.
But it is all in vain. The Liverpool
incident shows the extent Of the alarm
which Churchill's laundering and bus
teripg have inspired within the bosom
of his party. 1t were thousand times
better that the Conservatives should
be again in opposition than they
should be exposed to the humili-
alton of such things as Churchill's
attacks en- Earl Spencer's govern
ment of Ireland. Unless the Govern
ment disayows these attacks it will
feel the bad effects in the future more
seriously than it has yet contemplated.
The truth is, Lord Randolph Churchill
has been much oyerrated. If his
pranks be endured longer he will
smash the Government and the Con-
servative party. We will follow the
Marquis of Salisbury, but we will not
follow this overgrown school-boy, with
out knowledge sufficient to fathom his
own ignorance of craftsmanship. 1t is
a common saying that Lord Randolph
Churchill is equally radical with Jo-
seph Chamberlain, and the popular es-
innate is not far wrong"
LONDON, July 3l.--The Times de-
clsres that if Lord Randolph Churchill
succeeds in dragging the Cabinet into
the discreditable intrigues he has en-
tered into with the Parnellites the OPP
position will be relieved Of all fears in
the coming general election.

NORFOLK, July 81, 1885.
ihe newly-organized national bank,
70 De known as 1.-THE Norfolk National
BANK" opens its doors for business to-
morrow in the old Exchange Bank
building, and great things are predicted
Tor 1t IN the way Of relieving the finan-
ciai pressure m business circles. The
merchants in the cotton business will
all have their transactions at the new
institution.
Our merchants are predicting a good
trade this fall. So far no private bust
ness-houses have gone under on account
OF the four bank failures in April. and
the cotton-men are making their usual
advances to the planters. In fact, one
or two have made heavier advances than
usual. The confidence of the country
people is being restored, and the busi-
ness outlook here at present is general
iy regarded as very good.
Robberies are of nightly occurrence
in Norfolk just now, and our police are
considerably bafiled. The depredations
are mainly confined to private houses,
and are evidently thieves.
Rev. John N. Jones, of the Virginia
Conference, stationed in Norfolk and
Portsmouth few years ago, died sud-
denly at Bay View, Northampton coun-
ty, Va, on Wednesday night from
prostration brought on by exposure to
the sun for six hours in making the
trip from Cobb's Island to the Eastern
Shore. He was forty-six years Of age,
and from the upper section Of the State.
The fruit trade is at its height here
now. Fleets Of thirty and forty YES
sells at time arrive daily from North
Carolina with watermelons and load
"down-East schooners lying in the
stream, while on every out going steamer
the decks are crowded with the fruit.

A new epidemic recently prevailed
