Ward Meanings.

Tonight the Democrats Of this city
are 10 assemble in ward meetings snd
elect delegates to the Convention to DO
held on the Cd September to nomi-
nate n Democratic candidate for Con-
eress for this district.
The plan of holding ward meet
ipgs WAS adopted by the City Com
mittse after . full discussion OF
the respective merits of that plan
and the plan Of choosing delegates
bys primary election. Where halls
large enough for the purpose osn be OBJ
tanned, the plan Of holding ward meet
inss is . good one. At any rate, q
prejudice had grown up in the public
mind against primary elections. TWAS
wise, therefore, in the City Committee
to return to the old plan Of holding
ward meetipgs-if for no other reason,
because " . change was demanded "by
q large number Of good people.
Then attend your ward meetings this
evening, and do your duty to your
country and to your party. Attend
them and look your neighbors and
friends in the face, and consult with
them as to the best means Of preserving
intact the organization Of the Demo-
cratic party, securing harmony amongst
the white voters Of this city, and pro-
noting the welfare Of our State and Of
the entire country.
The Democrats Of Richmond are just
now in q position new to them. They
are confronted by the Republican party,
and yet are not sure that they can bring
up to the support Of their nominee for
Congress the full strength Of the Demo-
cratic vote of the last fifteen years.
We must, therefore, be prepared
to surrender our own prsjudices II
We have any, and be as liberal
to our fellow. Democrats as we would
have them be TO US. We muat not ex-
pect to have our own way in regard to
all matters. The ward meeting is the
place for you to make known your
wishes, and to lend your assistance to
your fellow-citizens in the good work
Of rallyipg al the Democrats of this
city to the standard under which for so
many years they calamity and pa

TWO NEGRO BURGLARS LODGED IN

A Brighter Outlook at the Norfolk Navy

Ravages, &c.

Correspondence ofthe Richmond Dispatch.l
NORFOLK, August 10, 1886.
Two negro men-George Turner aud
Anderson Cullee-were brought to the
county Jail, in Portsmouth, this morn
ire by Constable Josephus Cuffee for
burglary near Great Bridge last night.
They broke into the residence Of Mr..
Geoyee T. Smith and robbed the rooms
Of watches and jewelry, several lots of
clothing, and nearly sl00 in currency.
The negroes were duly committed for
trial by Justice Warren. There are ten
negroes now in the county Jail for house
breaking, four OF whom have been tried
and sentenced to the penitentiary.
Preparations are making at the navy
ward for commencing work next month.
As the law forbids the employment of
men in the navy-yards sixty days before
election, requisition has been made for
about four hundred hands, who will be
called in in September. Besides the
flagship Trenton, to arrive here in two
weeks from China, and the training
ship jamestown on the LIST, the United
states steamship Swstara, of the North
Atlantic squadron is also ordered here
for repairs. Naval. Constructor T. L.
Bowles, who was sent to Greenwich
dock-yards, in England, three years,
and is said to be sn expert in iron-shlp
building, has just been ordered here to
assist Naval Construct Boush. This
indicates that there is to be important
work here this fall.
A large lot Of new patent machinery
such as is used in the large estaollsn-

Taxes IN Instalments.

Our morning contemporary Pro-
nounces our proposition to collect taxes
in instruments imprscticsble," not
withstsndiug the fact that the people
Of this city not. only pay their taxes in
instruments, but account it great con-
,eniepce to do so. The Wing is enti-
tied to its opinion A.; but We cannot adj
nit that its opinion is correct one.
IL seems to us that its facts and
its argument 60 to prove that
our proposition is practicable. We
call our contemporaries attention to
smother illustration OF the workings Of
the instslment plan. Richmond city
owns her gas-works. The consumers
pay the city for the gas. In 1865 the
city collected the gas bills only once 10
three months. Now they are collected
monthly. And this change was eff
fected not only to the great satisfaction
of the consumers, but without subject
ing the city to any additional expense
worth mentioning. Let our neighbor
advocate . return to the old method OF
collecting gas bills only once quarter.
One Of the State officers has sug-
e.sted to US that any law which should
provide for the payment Of taxes in in
stalmen,s ought to be made to apply
only to the tAx-bills which are large
enough to enable the property-owner to
use coupons in the payment Of them.
How many OF these are there? In q
letter to us, written some time ago,
the Second Auditor stated that there
were only 1887 out of more
than 100000 tithables who could
possibly pay their taxes in coupons.
lie also gave figures which showed that
only 1905 persons in Virginia paid
over eos year in taxes. These last
are all the taxpayers whom it would
be necessary to annoy, according to our
neighbours notion, or to favor, if ours
be the right side Of the question. COL
lect the State taxes Of even these few
taxpayers in quarterly instalments, and
the coupon.speculstOIs would at once
come TO grief, for there would not be
two thousand Of them who could under
that plan Of collecting taxes use cou-
pons in payment Of the same.
Surely there is patriotism enough
among these taxpayers to induce them
TO aid the Commonwealth in settling
Der debt. Nay, surely self-interest
would lead them to support any law
that would keep millions Of coupons
out of the Treasury and save her from
paying the many millions Of the princl-
pal which would have to be paid if the
bondholders were successful in forcing
their coupons into the Treasury and de-
featiDg the RIDDLEBERGER PROPOSE
ton. To know that nobody could use
coupons would afford infinite sa''S'A'-
ton to the people.
Reconsider the matter, neighbour anu
see whether our scheme is not more
practicable than the proposition 10 ash
the General Government ior i'S SS'''''
ance in the matter.

Member Of Executive Committee Lee
Memorial Association, Lexington, Va.

Mr.. Royal, attorney for the bond
holders, and Mr.. James p. Harrison,
are talking through the Richmond Wig
about another settlement Of the State
debt. II is true that there has been
10 settlement, so far rs surrendering
the old bonds and accepting new 3's in
exchange for them is concerned; but
there has been an emphatic expression
by the people as to the sum and interest
they will pay, through their party plat
forms and their representatives in the
Legislature, and no amount Of coaxing
or decisions by United States courts
will alter the determination reached as
TO the terms Of that settlement.
When the gubernatorisl chair was
filed by that gallant soldier and up
right citizen Governor Holiday the
party that elected him did al that lay
in its power to effect mutual compro-
mise Of the State debt. The creditors
looked coldly on during that struggle
they did not even ask the Republican,
President to keep his hands clean OF
the affair-because they had faith in
their self-sxecuting coupon, and when
their cause went down, together with
the party that loved the honor Of Vir-
ginia more than they did the debt, they
were still unconcerned, because they
thought the people could not be in
d,oad IN nav THAR taxes in cash so lone
as they could pay them in deprecated
coupons. The people have turned their
backs upon the coupons, and the terms
of the Riddleberger settlement ars the
best that will be offered the creditors.

The public will be delighted to hear
this. II there is anything calculated to

aggressive campaign by Mr.. BLAINE.
