Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch. !
PETERSBURG, Jan. 5. 1886.
Ii is understood that the movement
some time ago inaugurated to establish
a national bank in this city has been
crowned with success, and that at
near day in The future the bank will be
put in operation. A meeting will be
held tomorrow to complete the arrange
ments, after which reliable details may
be furnished
The Norfolk and Western train from
the west to-day brought down between
$50 and 200 negro men, who have been
engaged to go to New York to work on
some internal improvement. They came
mostly from the vicinity of Lynchburg.
The Christian people Of this city are
observing the week Of prayer by hold
ing union prayer-meetings every after
noon. The ministers of all the evan
gelical churches take part in them.
These meetings in previous years were
productive of great good, and instead of
continuing only through one week were
prolonged from four to six weeks. If
the interest in them justifieSi it they will
be continued for some time this year.
The regular monthly term Of the
County Court of Greensville was held
yesterday. but no business ofimpOrtance
was transacted. There were good
many of the farmers in attendance, the
majority Of whom were complaining of
the hard times.
The Petersburg chorus will carry
over about one hundred voices next
Monday to sing at the opening Of the
new Neutrality-suspicious. Hall. It is
understood that the Mozart will furnish
a special train to convey the chorus to
and from Richmond.
Nine persons were received into the
membership OF the Second Presbyterian
church here on Sunday.

NORFOLK, January 5, 1886.
There is steamship ashore at Cape
Hat,eras, but nothing can be learned
about her condition here, as the Sea-
Coast telegraph line is down beyond
Bodies island. and has been for nearly
two weeks. The whole line for 200
miles was prostrated or washed away
by the Christmas storm, and the gang
of workmen have not yet succeeded in
rebuilding more than half Of it.
The United States steamship Yantic,
after three months repairing at the
nayy-yard, made q run down to the
grounds in Chesapeake bay to-
day to adjust compasses, and is now
awaiting orders to sail. This leaves
only two vessels at the yard to work
oD--the Alliance and Swatara--and the
repairs of the latter are nearly finished.
There will be considerable cutting
down in the working force in week
or two unless more work is sent here.
The schooner Cocheco, from New
York to this port with guano, arrived
last night in distress, having suffered in
the Christmas gale and been driven
three hundred miles out Of her course
to the southwark.
All the police force attended the fu-
funeral Of Sergeant Scultetus to-day and
the station-house was draped in mourn
ing.

In Silence.
The Boston Herald says

at was remarked by guest at the
merchants dinner tina. the name Of Mr..
Blaine, when spoken by one OF the
visiting statesmen, was received with
dignitied silence by the company. This.
taken in connection with the fact that
the main issue Of the late political cam
psigns was not mentioned, indicates that
the Republican party is recovering
from the peculiar sensation Of year
ago.
And how did the Herald expect the
mention OF Mr.. BLAINE's name would
be received by company of Bos-
tonians? Whatever else may be said
of the Boston people they are exceed
ingly proper" They are we'll up in
the customs Of good society and know
that toast to the dead should always
be drunk standing and in silence.
Again it would appear that the Herald
is little off its usual balance in init
mating that the Republican party is re-
covering from the peculiar sensation Of
a year ago. The Republican psrty's
peculiar sensation Of year ago was
that of man that had been used to
mop up about fifty square feet Of side
walk. 1t felt sore through and through;
and while some Of the superficial scars
it received may have healed, there is
pretty good ground for thinking that it
is injured for life. Certainly its temper
is that Of chronic invalid that revels
in the low grounds of sorrow.

STAUNToN, January 5, 1856.
The Merchants and Manufacturers
Association was in regular monthly
session last night. A numerously
signed petition was considered, which
asks of the Chesapeake and Ohio rail-
way the restoration Of former regula-
lion of trains, which made this city a
division point. and the re-estabiishment
here ofrepair shops. The city gave the
railway certain lands to secure these
ends. The shops were discontinued
and the buildings are now idle. The
Association referred the matter to a
committee, who will correspond with
General Wickham ON the subject.

which we're centuries ego in vogue In
England. The King granted monopoly
IN particular articles Of traffic to a GER
tain person, for pecunixry considers
ton. High license Is but q species Of
monopoly. II does not grant a monop-
oily to one person, but to all persons
who pay $500 a year for joining the
monopolistic ring. There are three
thousand saloons in Chicago now, ac-
cording to the figures given in the ex-
tract quoted above. But tho number
of them might be greatly reduced. II
tax Of $500 allows three thousand
saloons, ta1 Of $1,000 would
allow not more than one
thousand saloons, and tax OF
$4,000 not moro perhaps than one hum
bred saloons. Now, give these one
hundred saloon-keepers the power to
put down all unlicensed dealers, and
Chicago will have gone back, in effect,
to the condition OF England nearly a
thousand years ago. Perhaps those old
fellows were wiser than we have been
in the habit Of considering them. We
commend the matter to the attention of
the Prohibitionists. There is no police
officer so vigilant as the saloon-keeper
who has the right to crush out unlaw-
full OF unlicensed competition.

A costly work OF Art.


The Duke d'Aumale has Just pur.
chased, to the great chagrin of English
srt-lovers, the Three Graces." by Ra.
phael. for the sum of $685. 900. The
Three Graces" was the gem Of the
late Lord Dudley's art 1sllery. The
price paid is all the more remarkable
" hen it is remembered that the painting
is only about seven inches square. This
is the highest price ever paid for so
small picture, being about $500 to
the square inch. The " Three Graces >
is juvenile work Of Raphael, and is
supposed to have been painted about
the year 1906. 1t would be interesting
10 know how much Raphael received
for the paintiDg-possibly the price Of
a dinner of macaroni.

Sad Leap for Life

A New Haven Conn telegram Of
the 4th says: Mile Eddy, vino was
performing at the American Theatre in
what was known as {" The Leap for
Life" fell from a trapeze tonight
among the audience, Assistance Of about
thirty feet. She was picked up insensi-
BILE and carried to her lodging. She is
perhaps fatally injured. The audience
were much frightened, but fortunately
no panic prevailed. In falling from the
trapeze she hit the edge Of the netting.
which hardly served to break the fall.
She then struck the seats in the aisle.
Her back was badly bruised, and inter
nal injuries may be feared. There are
no bones broken, yet her injuries are
quite serious. 1t is believed that the
accident was the result OF carelessness.

High License.


High license and local prohibition di.
vide the advocates Of measures for the
suppression of drinking intoxicating
liquors into two parties. Some contend
that high license has the effect stated in
the following paragraph from the Macon
(Ga.) Telegraph.
.The amount Of revenue derived from
liquor licenseS In Chicago under the new
law has increased from 100000 to
81 500, 900 q year, and the number Of
saloons has decreased from $4,000 TO
5000. The license charge is only $500.
which is much less in proportion to the
amount Of goods sold and the pro.
fits upon them than the local tax paid
by retail merchants who do the same
amount Of trade In other lines. The
license IL. therefore. not hardship.
and those who pay 1t are protected
from . competition that woald de-
duct more from their profits than the
