Dear Sir,--Will you be kind enough
either to let me know through your pa
per or by letter what the salaries OF the
Judges Of the Court Of Appeals OF Vir'
GINA are? And oblige, yours truly,
READERS.
P.S And if known, what chapter
of the Acts and what year?
The Code of Virginia contains the
general law. At the session Of the
Legislature of l874-'5 the law was
changed so as to provide that one o.
the judges should reside in Richmond
and that he should receive four thou.
sand dollars per annum. The Other
judges of that court receive $4,000, ex-
cept the president, who receives $4,000

We have never seen greater unanim-
ity of sentiment on any other public
question than that expressed by the
press Of Virginia on the Blair educa-
tional bill. Almost with one voice the
papers Of the State, of both parties, are
urging the passage Of the bill by the
House in order that Virginia may get
her share of the large surplus in the
Treasury, to which she contributed so
heavily, and which she so much needs
for the more efficient conduct Of her

FUN AMONG FRENCH FREE
MASONS.

M. AndreuX, an eX-pIeleCI vi
police in Paris, whose alleged rev.
Citations of Masonic mysteries in
his newspaper, La Ligne, were Ca
hled some three weeks ago, has re-
ceived an official demand from the
Parfait Silence Loge to say if he
has any observations" to make in
reply to the charge that he has vi
olated the Masonic oath. TO this
document M. Andrieux replies as
follows in his own paper, without
the previous formality of sending
his answer to the Lodge:
II have an observation to make,
but as | am a partisan of public
debate | decline private commune

why do you address me as Mon

Either I am still q Freemason, in
which case you should address me
as such, or | am not one, in which
case yon have no Jurisdiction over
me. As for the substance Of the
charge, You have pretended that
have violated an oath, the text of
which is as follows: Il do solemn

Of Freemasonry under the penalty
Of having my head cut off, my
tongue torn ont and my body cast
into the sea, where it will he forev-
er rolled by the ebb and flow of
the tide Permit me to observe
that in the eyes of nous autres
jawisconsultes an oath, like a confess
sion, is indivisible. If the first
part of your formula is serious, the
second part is also. If you talk
about the ebb and flow of the tide
merely to mock and poke fun at
Masons, there is no reason why l
should not also poke fun when yon
talk about your mysteries. l shall
not reveal anything; but if l should
see fit to reveal anything you should
