Our Exemption Laws.


CHERRY GROVE, Va, Feb. 13, 1888.
Why is our General Assembly so silent
on this important subject?
Why don't some of our public journals
give some history Of the glazing evils
originating from our homestead law,
poor law, &c. ?
Haven't they demoralized the people
and paralyzed the business affairs of the
country long enough to be repealed?
They are some of the obnoxious fruits
that were brought to Virginia and en-
grated in her new Constitution after
the war. They are not only violation
of the Constitution of the United States,
by impairing the obligation of con-
tract" but they are really disgrace and
burning shame to the Commonwealth
and should be swept from tho pages OF
every code in the Union.
If every person who takes the benefit
of the poor law, or homestead-exemp-
ton law, was perfectly honest in every
thing else, he couldn't claim to be in
that-because he violates the obligation
of contract by compelling his creditor
by law to wait longer than his stipulated
time. A contract ought to be held as
sacred as circumstances will allow. II
we are compelled to prolong the pay
ment of our debts on account of not
having the means to pay according to
contract, then it is the moral duty OF the
creditor to be as merciful and forbearing
as his circumstances will allow. But
that is a prerogative of his Own, and
should never be taken away from him
by law.
If my neighbor chooses to not be mer-
ciful, forbearing, or benevolent with me,
/ have no natural or moral right to COM
pei him to do so.
A creditor may be in more INDECENT
circumstances and need bis money worse
than the debtor. Yet this very perni-
cious law protects the INSCRIPTIONS par
ty in holding that which belongs to his
neighbor, even if it keeps the bread
from the mouths and the clothes from
the backs of those little hungry and rag
ged children whose parents had kindly
favored their neighbor with money or
property. Volumes might be written on
those monster evils that have their origin
in our Legislative halls. Any of our dele
gates can see at once that they are UNI
Just and all rotten.
He who can and will be instrumental
In their repeal will surely deserve crown
of unfading glory. Let us hear from
others. j.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. 10, 1888.
Blaine VS.. Malone.

MAHoXE's opposition to BLAINE has
been discussed by several of our ex-
changes. The extent and nature of that
opposition, fortunately for MALONE, did
not become known until after Mr..
BLAINE had declined to be candidate for
The nomination of the Chicago conven-
ton. II BLAINE had continued in the
field, he would have been nominated II
not by reclamation at least by a vote
approximating unanimity, and MALONE,
in the light Of his personal aud conf
dental" circular, would have been q
ruined politician, not TO say a disgraced
one. Sir PETER TEAzLE BLAINE would
have had the pleasure Of unmasking his
secret enemy in the presence OF ma
ton. MALONE would have appeared as
contemplate as it is possible for such o
man to feel. He would have had either
TO shake off the dust Of Chicago from
his feet, or else to play the rdte Of ga
poor boy at frolic.
But what is the prospect for MALONE
now that the Blaineites have caught him
Faqrante delictos Will they forgive
the offender because his offence had no
results? Will they overlook his inten-
tons because Mr.. BLAINE's declination
completely took the wind out of the sails
of the little BOSs's anti-BLAINE craft :?
Hardly. "There is a great deal of
human nature" in the Blaineites, and
they will be apt to make it hot at Chi
cago, not only for MALONE but for SHER-
MAN, who, it is possible, not to say pro-
bable, was priyy to all MAHoNE's move
ments.
We have assumed that Mr.. BLAINE
will under no circumstances allow his
name to be presented to the Chicago
convention. We regard it as absolutely
settled that he would accept the nomina-
ton of that body only in case its mem
bers could agree upon no other nomi-
nee. We regard it as settled also that
the members of the convention will con-
centrate their votes upon Mr.. BLAINE
only in the same contingency. But sup
pose this contingency should be devel-
oped what, then, will be the feelings of
MALONE and his co-conspirators in Vir-
ginia? We ask the Blaineites in this
sState if they are willing to sit down in
idlenesss and allow a SHERMAN delega-
ton to be sent hither to Chicago under
such circumstances? How would the
Blaineites here feel when the news
reached them that BLANE's popularity
had overwhelmed all opposition, buried
all his rivals, and caused his nomination
10y reclamation. They would have to
share MAHoxE's "disgrace, d." as the word
Is in England, and appear before the
World either in the character of MA
HOMES tools, or else as men who were
90 simple to take part in politics-that
J, to say, as his victims.
We commend this possible contingency
I the consideration of WICKHAM, CAME
h0S, R1DDLEBERGER, BRADY, the YosTs,
tile LEwIsEs, and all the rest of the Re-
plblicans in Virginia who feel FESTIVE
under the rule of the little Boss.

Mexico, saw no sight so strange as that
of the women lolling in the bench.like
sills of the great windows, dressed for
public view and looking lazily out OF
their great black orbs at whoever passed
along the street. Those who were young
were nearly all beautiful, but their
elders had lost their good looks in
superabundance OF flesh. They
could not 60 out OF doors in the day

when they went shopping the clerks at
tended them in their carriages, the la
