NATIONAL POLITICS.

As II is understood that there is no
longer any sectional politics, the great
pojpt Is to understand exactly our politi-
cal relations. The Southern people have
been occupying doubtful place by the
political courtesy, but still have certain
number of votes in the electoral college.
The people of the South are now DIS
tant from the war a; least twenty-three
wears. and the Southern States are no
longer military provinces. The Southern
States are either the equals of the North
ern States In the great political family
of the Union with the particular under
standing of il, or else they are simply
military provinces, and that is one OF the
issues when the Radicals propose a
re,rograde movement towards The carpet
begger and scalawsg.

Why She Was n Heroine.

We were running down from Charles
ton to Savannah, and the train was hum
ming along at high speed, when the
danger signal blew and the airbrakes
were put on hard. AS the train stopped
all the passengers piled out to see what
was the trouble, and we soon discovered
that a culyert around the short curve
had been washed out. a negro woman
had tagged the train with a white apron,
and of course we all looked upon her as
. heroine.

vert had goner' / asked.

SOUTHEKN POLITICS.

The Northern Republicans have been
STUDYING the Southern newspapers to
find out something TO manufacture polit
cal capital with.
They want 10 see some seciionalism or
prejudice in order TO manufacture u
"Ku-Klux" sensation. But the fact Is
that the Southern people comprehend the
real sensible idea OF the North, aud they
intend TO appeal TO that and not to the
hate.
We know that at this long distance
from the war, the issues OF war being
dead, we can unite with ihe conservative
opinions of the North and make a great
united country on broad patriotic AmeTi'
can ideas. 1t is vain and foolish to take
council from passion and prejudice when
we know that there Is common Idea
on which we can agree. The Southern
people have no longer any different in
sti,utions from the North, and sc are all
akin in the great Bngio-Amerlcan family
with the same blood in our veins that
makes us the most enierprising and DOM
inant people in the world.
With our free institutions and our
premiums 10 all free-born citizens we
recognize a great common cause, and the
recent civil war has no longer anything
TO do with it.

WHICH Is THE MvAD AND WHICH THE
TAIL?

We publish this morning q denial from
Mr.. George 3. Scott, Of New York, pres''
dent OF the Richmond & Danville ha'i-
road. of q statement that the West FONT
Terminal Company, as at present c'h'
st,uted, is antagonistic to Richmond
Mr.. Scott says that the Richmond q Dan
Vile will always be jealous Of the inter
es,s Of the city aud State to whom II owes
It's existence, and will never consent TO
any arrangement which will jeo pardize
the prosperity OF Virginia.
The source of the report, II seems, was
an alleged statement OF President lnman
OF the Terminal Company to the tnec'
that every effort OF his railroad system
would be to build UP the Georgia por's
Of Savannah and Brunswick at the ex-
pense OF the Virginia ports of Richmond
Yves, Point, and Norfolk. As MIR. lnman
says. TO do this much of the cotton trade
Of the Virginia ports must be diverted TO
The South-a statement which it Is very
evident to see is decidedly practical.
No,with standing Mr.. SCOTS denial, 1t
behooves the citizens of Virginia and the
business men of all our principal cities
to keep their eyes wide open. The recent
purchase Of the Georgia Central, with all
its valuable tributaries and far reaching
arms, by the West Point Terminal, is
suspicious. That Georgia Central sys
TEN Is the most valuable in the
South. 1t nearly controls the trans
portation of the entire cotton
belt, and is headquarters are IN
Savannah and Atlanta. 1t would never
have consented to have sold Itself TO a
Virginia corporation, and afterwards
elected a Georgia president unless it had
been thoroughly convinced, that the tail
had ample power to wag the dog.
This is what our Richmond and Viz
ginia business men have to consider. 1t
sounds very big for the Richmond q Dan
vile Railroad to own the entire railway
system Of the Southern States. But II
that corporation, from its headquarters
in Washington, is only sppart ntly the
head Of the Southern system, but in reality
a small portion of railroad syndi-
cate organized to build up the South at
the expense of Virginia. then our shrewd
business men have good cause to keep a
sharp eye on the cat in the meal tub

The latest fad in prison manage

ing. 1t il ready means OF Identified
ton. and /. bound TO become popular in
prison management. Ny idea is to tattoo
a convict every time lie is imprisoned,
and then well have his record as clear az
the moon at midnight. Let each penal
institution adopt different mark or
monogram and the problem Of identify
ing convicts Will be solved. 1t is the
simplest and best system yet proposed.

hers whereas now respectful silence
will be observed. There are not many
Irish newspapers that can confront a

expenses, however willing their editors

Many Of them are blondes. There Is a
larger proportion of blonde women in
Richmond than in any other city in the
country. This comes naturally and
lawfully from their English ancestry.
There Is very little Of the Spanish or
