Presentation to Mr.. Leonard.

A pleasant incident occurred last night
in the parlor of the episcopal mansion
next to st. Peters Cathedral while the
choir were having their final rehearsal
of the music to be rendered in to-day s
services. During pause in the singing
Very Rev. Father Van de Vyver, vicar
general of the Diocese, entered the
room, and with few predatory remarks
presented Mr.. NJ. B. Leonard, the Cathe-
dral organist. with a beautiful silver
plated swinging e-pitcher and goblets as
a testimonial OF his high appreciation of
that gentleman services since his con-
nection with the choir. The kindly
sentiments expressed by the Vicar
General were echoed by all the
members of the choir, and the
hope was generally expressed that
though dissolving his connection with
them as organist Mr.. Leonard would
continue to lend his valuable aid as a
vocalist. Mr.. Leonard feelingly expressed
his grateful acknowledgements and graft
fcation at this mark OF esteem SO unex-
pectedly conferred upon him. Press OF
other business has forced him to resign
the position of organist, which he has
so well filled for several years. He will
be succeeded by Mr.. Frank b. Newhei-
ser, formerly the Cathedral organist, but
who for some years past has resided in
Washington, d. G.

To the Subscribers 30 the Exposition
stack.

The large number of subscriptions
handed in, and the fact that so many
names have been mentioned to-day who
intend to subscribe and on account of
oversight or inconvenience have not
done so, prompts the committee to defer
the publication of the list of subscribers
one week We want the list complete
when it does appear, and while it has
been so vigorously insisted upon that we
shallpublish the same, we feel sure that
all will appreciate the good reason for
our determination as stated.
If it is yet a question in the mind of
any one whether the enterprise is an as
sured fact, we beg to say that Richmond
has nothing to be ashamed OF in the
manner in which she has displayed her
public spirit in this matter.
We are going to have the Exposition,
and on magnificent scale.
Respectfully, ASHTON SrARKE.

terday evening on the Agricultural So
ciety grounds, and will on tomorrow

The Virginia PAINFULLY Indians and
Their Chitdren's EGucntfou.

Governor Leo has been trying to get
the permission OF the proper authorities
for the children OF the Pamunky Indians
in this State to be sent to the Hampton
Indian school. Yesterday he received a
letter from Mr.. Atkins, Commissioner Of
Indian Affairs, which reads as follows:
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR,
OFFICE OF INDIAN AFFAIRS,
WASHINGTON, March 30, 1888.
Hon. FitzhUgh Lee, GovcTnor, Rich
mond, Va.
Dear Sir,-Referring to your letter of
the 18th instant, inclosing petition of
Pamunky Indians to have their children
educated at the school at Hampton, Va,
have to advise you that the question as
to the propriety Of using the money ap-
propriated for Indian education for the
benefit OF those indians has been sub
mitted to the honorable Secretary OF the
Interior, and he has made a decision in
the negative, as you will see by the fol-
lowing extract from his letter:
"Ihe department does not think it
proper, without special authority OF law
therefor, to use appropriations made for
the education OF the children of Indian
descent whose parents have for O long
time past not been under its supervisory
charge, as is the case with these persons
calling themselves 'Pamunky Indians
OF Virginia, who it appears have the
benefits of the public-school system OF the
State in which they reside. They were
not taken into consideration when the
estimates for the Indian school service
we're prepared and presented, and the
appropriations made for that service en-
able the department to provide only for
abort one fourth of the children of
schOOi-age belonging to what is properly
known as the Indian population OF the
country. Until educational facilities can
be more fully provided for the children
of the Indians who are under the direct
charge and management OF the General
Government it is not considered wise nor
proper, if Within the discretion Of The
department, to use any portion of the
funds appropriated for that purpose by
Congress for those persons claiming to
be of Indian descent, but who have been
living in the States, caring for them
selves, self-supporting not attached to
any agency nor under the charge of an
agent, and who enjoy the public-schcol
priviles of the States within which they
reside. Very respectfully,
81. d. c. ATKINS, Commissioner.
The Governor forwarded the letter to
the chief of the tribe.
