DISABLED SOUTHERN STATESMEN.
Washington, April l6.-Some people
have raised the question as to whether
Mr. Lamar ever had his disabilities re-
moved by Congress. A friend Of his
told me yesterday that this was done
inst before he was admitted to the
House. Mr.. Lamar considered himself
disqualified to hold Office, under the
third section Of article fourteenth OF the
Consultation, without congressional ac-
ton. Before going into the campaign
therefore, he had some of his Missis-
sippi friends here introduce bill re-
moving his disabilities.-Spec'de 10 the
Nep York World.
Then Mr.. LAMAR must be OF the
same opinion as to other men whose
disabilities have not been removed by
Congress.

Manufacture Of small Artlcles.

MUHUAAttOkO Vi oAtAt&ss - ~~~-~
The artisan, in an article on the
small industries, says:
perhaps there is no more common
error than TO suppose large capital Is
necessary to manufacture with, though
this is true Of staple goods, like cotton,
iron, etc, or that only large and expen-
sise articles yield profit. 1t is the men
who make pens, lead-pencils, buttons,
button-hooks, toothpicks, combs, aud
the hundreds Of little things in every
day use, who get rich, and the reason
is that. whether times are good or bad,
the public must have their goods"
This is an important truth that our
people would do well to ponder and act
upon. II is the small industries that
turn communities into bee-hives and
utilize raw material which but for
the existence Of such industries
close at hand would be thrown
away. II is common thing to
talk Of the South's competing with
New England in the manufacture
of cotton goods, but very little regard
is paid to the fact that there is no rea-
son why we should not compete with
that section in other industries. There
is hardly q city in the South that does
not buy annually thousands Of dollars
worth Of little things of New England
manufacture that might be manufactured
at home. The wealth Of New England is
not due chiefly, as is generally supposed,
to her large cotton-facteries. This in
dustry has built up immense corpora
tons, it is true, but the development of
other industries has been the secret Of
her prosperity. The manufacture of
small articles has made most Of the
New England fortunes. The little
shops tucked off in byways, and
whose whole force in the begin
ming probably consisted of one
family, have probably, first and last,
put as much money in circulation as
have the cotton-factories. While the
cotton-mills have been hauling their
raw material hundreds Of miles the
small factories have been utilizing raw
material Immediately around them and
making market for stuff that had been
considered worthless. 1t is safe to say
that every town and village in Virginia
has in its neighborhood raw material Of
some sort which is regarded as almost
worthless, but which, if it could be
taken to New England, would be turned
into money. And what can be turned
into money in New England can GER
tainly, in course Of time, be turned into
money here.

We would be glad to hear from the
editor of the Richmond Dispatch whe-
Their he thinks Lee surrendered his army
never mind the swordD any sooner than
he had TO. And if Lee did surrender
before there was military necessity
that he should do so, what did he mean
by itg If Lee was obliged to surren-
der, what is the point of boastfulness
that he did not give up his sword? Is
it the theory that Lees sword was,
after all, rather bigger thing than
his army P Cincinnati Commercial Ga
zette.
We wish you to let your readers
know that southern papers and writers
have told the truth when they have said
that General LEE did not surrender his
sword to General GRANT, and we have
asked you to tell your readers that
General GRANT himself has testified
that at Appomattox Courthouse he did
not ask for General LEES sword,
nor did General LEE offer it to
him. II southern historians could
be convicted Of having told false
hoods when they have said that
General LEE did not surrender his
sword, and that Generals GRANT and
LEE met in house and not under an
appls-tree, then they might be suspect
ed Of having told falsehoods in regard
TO other matters. In word, we desire
you to helpus to keep the record right-:o
vindicate the truth Of history. So that.
as we said to you the other day, your
interrogatories are out Of order. The
question now is whether the CONNER
eial- Gazette will or will not let its
readers know that General GRANT has
testified in writing that General LEE
never offered him his sword.

A Leader Wanted.

The Marion Patriot and Herald is as
independent as Governor CAMERON.
1t does not mince its words when it
speaks of General MALONE. Here are
a.few specimen paragraphs taken from
that paper:
"In the ranks Of our political
forces in Virginia to-day there is as
much splendid heroism and gallantry as
there was in former times when our
hosts were in the habit of organizing
and accomplishing victory out of de-
spair. But what is lacking now is the
genius Of real leader who understands
and appreciates the wants of the times
and the temper and importance of his
associates and followers. We have had
leaders who were either mere routinists
embarrassed by their own resources or
mere ambitious men whose chief OBJ
iect was to make pictures Of them
selves and be surrounded by galaxy
of their own admir- RS and favorites.
They are, for all practical purposes,
like the poor chess-player with full
board, when the man of genius wins by
the advance of the right piece pushed
at the proper moment"
"But where, say many who admit
the logic Of past events, can such a
leader be found? Certainly not in
any person, whoever he may be, who
has heretofore proved himself a fail
ure, by leading to repeated disasters. p"
ais the Republican party in Vir-
ginia to be peoples party or mere
machine?"
us the Republican party in yir-
ginia SO weak in brains that only one
man can be found to lead it, and he
only to defeat?"
"Is the Republican party in the
State to be only personal party? II
so, call it by the name Of the man who
in his person is the party"

The Fourth District and the Office ,

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
Soon after the election last fall it was
generally an admitted fact that the vic
tory in Virginia, in large measure,
was due to the hard work done by the
Democrats of the negro counties, par
ticularly in the Fourth district; and
lavish promises were made as to the re-
cognition which would be extended to
this section in the distribution Of Fede-
raj patronage, it being conceded that
we had heretofore been neglected. So
profuse were the praises and promises
that it appeared for while as if in the
excess of their magnanimity the white
counties had determined to give up all
the offices to the Black Belt.
Having no representative to look af-
ter their interests, some of the execu-
tive committees Of the Southside de-
termined to meet and recommend suita-
BILE men to the President for appoint
ment. They were Immediately howled
down, even you, Mr.. Editor, taking
the ground that such action would be
undemocratic and usurpation; that APP
pointments were always made upon
the recommendation Of congress
men. Fully persuaded that such
action Of the committees was
in the highest degree right and proper,
we nevertheless determined to await
the action of the congressman. And
what is the result? About a month
ago they convened, holding secret con-
ferenccs and it was announced through
the newspapers that as the Second and
Fourth districts were unrepresented,
they should receive special attention,
and in addition to having their local
Offices filled by the best men (of course
congressman from other districts would
know better than local committees).
they were to receive liberal
share Of the general offices. Now,
how have they kept their pro-
misses? There are seven Of these gen.
eral appointments-viz., two district
attorneys, two marshals, and two col
lectors, which have been divided up in
secret caucuses, as follows One to
the Third district, one to the Fifth, one
TO the Sixth, one to the Seventh, two
TO the Eighth, and one to the Ninth !;
giving to the Second and Fourth what
they have always had-NOTHING.
And to cap the climax they have ap-
pointed mana good man, it's true,
but only local politician-crom the
Western judicial district as marshal for
the Eastern, although there were per-
haps six applicants for the place who live
in the Eastern district. With as much
propriety might man from Peters
burg be appointed postmaster of Rich
mond. If this is the kind of civil-ser-
vice reform meant by Mr.. Cleveland,
then his mugwumps must have made a
mistake.
Mr.. Editor, the Democrats Of the
Southside have been true to their party
and stood in line when the whites OF
more favored sections were deserving to
the enemy by hundreds. We do not in
the hour of victory make threats, but
will simply prophesy that in the near
future this section will be felt in the af-
fairs Of this State and will be in a posi-
ton TO demand justice. We are not an
oflice-seeker, nor the relative Of an Of
fice-seeker, but simplya

than their duty when they informed the
President and his secretaries how the
Federal Offices in Virginia had been
