Police For the Fairs.

Marshal Arnold, on being questioned
as to whether he would need any extra
police force for the city during tho
continuance of the State fairs, replied
that he would want ten, and also in
formed the council that each of the
fair associations had asked him for six
uniformed officers on their grounds
during their exhibitions. The council
tabled this request. 1t would seem
that was an unwisc thing to do. In
the multitude of visitors TO the two
fairs there is sure to be big lcaven
of pickpockets, thieves and roughs.
who will come here from abroad to
ply their vacations, and TO maintain
order Oh the grounds and protect Wis
itors, the number of policemen asked
for by these two associations ought to
be granted. They ought to be uni
formed, that every one may know they
are police. 1t is true both grounds
are without the corporate limits and
the city has no jurisdiction, but there
would be no difficulty in having these
officers commissioned as deputies by
the Sheriff, so they would have power
to make arrests and keep order The
marshal has done his duty in making
the request for these officers, and if
disorder or any wrong prevails his
skirts are clear. 1t does seem the city
owes this much to the thousands of
strangers who will be within her gates
during the fairs. If it is question of
cost it is not improbable the fair asso-
Citations would pay the expenses, but
even if they should not be willing
ought not the city to do that much for
the sake of her own good name?

A Fine Sermon.

There was very large congregation
at the First Methodist church Grow
dus' halD last night to hear Bishop
Galloway. of Mississippi. The bishop
selected as the text of his discourse
John VIII, 30, aye shall know the
truth, and the truth shall make you
free and on the subject Of the power
of the truth and liberty from the
slavery of sin preached very able
sermon. He spoke of infidelity, and
reasoned that nature, science and OBJ
servations of every day life proved the
divinity Of the Bible, the reality ofthe
Christian religion, and that those who
experience the truth shall be freed
from sin, and be verify happy in their
liberty to enjoy the religion of Jesus
Christ. The bishop is :, fluent and clo-
quent speaker, sound rcasoncr, and
held the closest attention of his audi
tors for full hour. His sermon was
an intellectual treat, spiritual feast,
and it was plainly evident that the
valuable truths which he so clearly and
forcibly taught went straight to the
heads and hearts of his hearers.

Novel Plea,

A plea of guilty to the charge of Vi
olation of criminal laws are not unfre-
quent, but the HERALD can report
probably the first plea of guilty to the
charge of insanity. There has been in
town lately man who is something of
an enthusiast on religion, and who be-
cause of this enthusiasm which Undue
ed all his time and thought TO his ia
vorite theme and was sometimes de-
nominated crank" A few months
ago he was arrigned on charge of in
sanity, tried before the proper tribunal,
and, besides his plea of guilty" was
adjudged insane and sent to the asy-
lum for treatment, and there kept till
he was pronounced cured. Recently,
in talking to friend about his trouble
the gentleman said he was no more
crazy than the man who arraigned him,
but that he knew he would be SO
Judged, and thought to save time, he
would plead guilty. The friend asked
him if he had no dread of confinement
in the asylum, and the religious enthu-
siast replied. "No was working on
book, and could. write in the asylum
as well as anywhere else; the privacy
and comforts of the as,lum was Just
what was most in need Of"

GENERAL McCLELLAN.

General McClellan's stories Of the war
are certainly most interesting in display
ING the personal and political differences
among the big men at Washington. The
intense partizan spirit Of the Republican
party is especially apparent in the nara
tons of the personal preferences and en-
imosities.
General Mcclellan was certainly an
honorable and high-minded soldier and,
though he did not do at Sharpsburg what
a great military chief might have done
there is heroism in his simple and
straightforward story of the facts, after
Fitz John Porter had been offered as sac
rifce to Pope, and he himself was in i'm
minent risk of the same fate.

TIE SNOW STORM.

When Old Winter takes itintO his head
to make a sudden raid on the Sunny
South he catches us without any prepare
ton and takes all the advantages Of the
situation. Ladies telephone to their hus-
bands offices about coal, and dudes are
caught without credit for sleigh
The trains are all late, and worst OF all,
the editor is left sitting at his desk wait
ing for telegraph and Northern papers in
vain
We will not believe that this is any
thing but the Sunny South, and hence we
get caught, and everything goes wrong
until the people take down that adyertis-
ing weather flag, and let the Sunny South
have its chance again.

pn,so,pLE. POLITICS, AND sYMPATuY

The politicians will persist IN harpl"s
ON the debt question as an idea involving
local defense against foreign creditors
And this is the fallacy that leads 10 a
manufactured sensation in the interest OF
ot,iceholders who would be left to make a
living by other means if the dept couiu

which the only objection is the automalon

Surprising that the mans creditors

nolitical idea of the regulators in VIZ

the course to be pursued. The business

the best adjustment to be made under
the circumstances, and the duty OF the
representatives of the people is to take
hold of financial problem without re-
card TO any pretence Of enmity on the
part of the creditors, which, in fact, IS
only a regulators excuse. of course a
natural-born repudiator thinks that his

For the Dispatch.


FROM the Amherst New LId.I
The Nclc Era has never declared that it
was in good company in its views as to
the debt question" We simply gave the
names Of a few of the papers Of the State
which, in our view, were on the right
side, and Of course not on the side the
D&DQtch has taken.
We will now name another the Ports
mouth Times, which makes in all four
daily papers of the State, in four different
cities, which have awakened to the knowl-
edge that something must be done.
We do not direct the course Of this pa
per simply by that Of the great majority
of the papers Of the State, but simply IN
accordance with what our notions may
be as to a wise and just policy. The Times
closes its article by saying:
"The sooner the Democratic party
takes this matter up and disposes of it in
a sensible and equitable way, the better
it will be for he party as we'll as the
State. The Democratic party, by the
time the next Legislature assemblies, VIII
have fully redeemed its pledge to give
the Riddleberger bill fair trial, and will
be in a position, we believe, to arrange a
final and satisfactory settlement

HENRY GEORGE.

We have heretofore declared that Mr..
Henry Georges ground-rent or exclusive
land-iaX scheme would not make any
practical difference to the people with
respect to land-getting and land-hOld-
inc. He still urges the idea in
ESSAYS and addresses, and there are
many who are deceived by the sophistry-
and he himself, no doubt, being one of
the deceived. Yet it is easily demon
strable that the system he advocates would
afford no more relief to the poor against
what he calls land monopoly than the
present system. Indeed with all taxes
laid on land, land would be the hardest
property for the poor to hold, if not to
get. There is a great deal Of land now
let on ground-rent but we DO not find
that the poor are lessees. If the State
were the landlord the case would not be
different.-Iadec-ApPeal.
Mr.. George therein displays largely as
the champion logician and alleged politi-
cal economist with his fayorite trick,
which is what in logic is called the "Igno-
ratio Ayeucdi," or raising of false issue
Mr.. George can set up an idea and argue
from it beautifully, but his idea is a
balloon. 1t is the false premise that has
no foundation to it.

As soon as we hear that the new deal
in the Terminal" and Richmond and
Danville means anything practical, and
not a speculation, we will be ready to
publish anything that we can hear about
the transfer and about the new officers.
AS we said before, the names of the Rich
lmond men concerned in the enterprise
ought to be a guarantee that there is a
solid interest for the mercantile position
of Richmond in all this business; and we
hope to hear positively that Mr. Pace,
who is patriotic citizen, and Mr.. Logan,
who is an equally honorable gentleman,
mean to take hold of this transaction for
something more than speculation, and
that they will win the lasting regard of
the people by eifecting a result that will
place Richmond in its proper relations.
