Like most gamblers, Mr.. Hamlin was super
stitious. He rose hastily from the bed and
took chair beside the window. The wind
shook it as if the discontented spirit of Mr.
Byways were without, reinforcing his last
injunction.

Peg, feverishly "He was man ez he'd suf-

being poor gal he let himself out. 1 never

Mr.. Hamlin rose, deliberately resumed his
coat, watch, hat and overcoat. When he was
completely dressed again he turned TO Peg.

THE RICHMOND DIsPATCH-FRIDAY, FEBRUARY TO- 1888
was in favor Of railroads. He wished

was in favor OF railroads. He wished
every one in Virginia had q double
track but he was opposed to discrimi-
nation and extortion. He therefore
favored the bill under consideration
strongly. Mr.. Arnold spoke in glowing
terms OF Virginia. II an unbiased stu
dent of physical geography we're asked
10 point out where natures God intended
the metropolis to be, he would take the
map and lay his finger on Virginia The
coal-mines are absolutely inexhanstible,
vet from 1870 to 1880 the taxable values
had fallen off nearly $4,000, 900, and
il was all in agricultural wealth, and the
fall had been greater since that time.
Virginia, in spite OF its resources ana
advantages was dead country. That s
what all commercial travellers say. and
bis county, Bedford, which had been q
paradise few years ago, now had no
signs of paradise except the trees OF
paradise by the side of the road. and all
this desolation comes from the dlscrlmi-
nation in rates by railroads. MIR. Ar
nold's speech was listened to attentlvely.
Mr. Pollard moved to so amend as to
make it unlawful for any railroad or
transportation company in the State
TO issue any tree pass or complimentary
ticket to any member of the General
Assembly, Judge of any court, or other
salaried officer of the State, and pro-
viding that If such pass were issued such
company should be gully of mis-
demeanor, and upon conviction shall be
fined not less than $500 for each offence.
The House here adjourned.

Rnrkev1lla Connection.

There is no Burkeyille connection,
and yet Virginia has Railroad Commits
sioner, and, if he has not the necessary
power to remedy the wrongs done the
people by railroads, be has a Legislature,
sitting now in Richmond. to back him
or, at any rate, the Legislature ought to
hold up his hands. The Norfolk Ledger
says on this subject;
1.-THE Richmond Dispatch has had
one or two articles recently IN reference
TO the desirability of close connection at
Burkeyile between the trains of the
Norfolk and Western and Richmond and
DanviIle railroads. in order that less
time may be consumed in travel between
Lynchburg and the State capital. 1t fur
Their stated that the impression exl lists
the fault of the delay at Burkeville has
been caused by the action of the Norfolk
aud Western railroad authorities. OF this
we know nothing but we do know that
travellers from this city bound south by
way of Danville have experienced the IN
convenience of waiting at Burkevllle for
the Danville train. and have suffered like
detention at the same place while return
ing from the South.
at seems to us that close connection
al Burkeyille is desirable to the entire
travelling public-not simply that por-
ton residing in the cities of Richmond
and Lynchburg. And it further appears
to us that company which so disre-
CARDS the wishes of the inhabitants of
the most populous city of our State as to
remove its general offices to Washington
in defiance of their protests, may be as
much to blame for the inconvenience of
which the Dispdtch complains as the
company mentioned by that paper.
We do not know which company is re-
sponsible for the condition of things a.
luded to. All the people living the other
side of Burkeville on or near the Dan
Vile road have to submit to this wrong
when they go to or return from Norfolk,
or Petersburg, or any other place on the
Norfolk and Western railroad between
Norfolk and Bristol. Whether they ira
vel east, west, north, or south, they are
compelled to lie over for hours at Burke
Vile.
We ask the General Assembly to look
into this matter. 1t is discredltable to
the Commonwealth that there should be
such a wrong to complain Of

Mr.. Williams thought that the ques-
ton having assumed the shape it had the
resolution, out of fairness to all, had
better be referred to committee to re-
port upon it. He therefore moved that
1t be referred to the Committee on Gen
eral Laws.
Mr.. Mcdonald at once replied that
any such movement would result in the
killing of the resolution.
MIR. Williams stated that he had no
such object in view, and it would not
meet with any but the best treatment
The question OF referring the entire
matter 10 the proper committee was then
placed before the Senate.
Mr.. Heaton said the best thing 10 do
was for the State to uphold the company
in its reorganization and its efforts 10
build up the State in all departments.
He. for one. would rather have the State
give up the stock than impede the pro-
gress OF the road. The loss OF the rail
road was incurred during the war,
caused mainly by the destruction of pro-
psrty. Coming right after the peniten-
tiarv fire, it had become necessary for
the State to expend S35, 600 to rebuild,
it was indeed fortunate that the Com
monweath was able to place its hands
upon apparently worthless assets and
dispose of them at -. 80 per share.
Mr.. Mcdonald again arose and stated
that an investigation, in his mind, would
increase its value. If it did not il would
do no harm, and even if it wiped ont the
entire value of the stock it should be
done.
LAY on THE TABLE.
Mr.. Lovenstein wanted to lay the reso-
luton upon the table.
Mr.. Mcdonald characterized this as
another attempt to kill the bill, and
called the ayes and noes.
Mr.. Lovenstein stated that such was
his intention, but subsequently Withdrew
his resolution.
MIR. Koiner thought that the Finance
Committee had not the time 10 make the
investigation asked for, and deemed it
advisable 10 refer it TO special commit
tee. tic referred TO the history OF the
railroads in other States as proof that
the same state of affairs existed in other
States, and that many OF the Oldest roads
