TO WHIST PLAYERs-The Spirit
Of Tie South published at New Orleans,
La, announces that in about three
weeks it will establish Whist De,
partnent under the edtorsbip of N. B.
Trist, Esq, the originator of the
american Leads" and the highest
authority on the game in the U. S.,
if not in the world. Mr.. Trist will
begin at the beginning and explain
the game in its elementary principles,
gradually increasing the scope of bis
lessons until they embrace the whole
subject of the science of whist. His
articles will be deliberately illustrated
by means of card type, showing all the
hands around the board and how to
play each in their turn. Mr.. Trist
will also conduct a correspondence
columu in which he will answer ones
tons as to knotty points in tee game,
occurring in actual play. The best
way to profit by these lessons will be
by forming clubs of four and discuss
ing the points of each lesson and pnt-
ting them into immediate practice, but
the system of instruction will be so
easy and simple and SO thoroughly IL
Illustrated that any one can learn it
without any other assistance.
Whist is the most fascinating and
scientific of all games of cards, and in
fact knowledge of the game is al
most badge of gentiIity among card
players. 1t is the favorite game with
the English clergy, and it is miver-
sally popular among ladies, albeit a
cynical writer has observed that no
woman Can learu to play whist, be-
cause it requires the faculty of silence.
In the large cities tea cheers of whist
are in great demand and earn large
incomes.

Perhaps the proposition to establish a
dual government in Virginia had some
thing to do with his defeat. Like the old
woman in the following from the ATldnsdto
Traveller, the voters couldn't see why they
should allow another Governor so near to
Richmond as Petersburg is. We quote
from the Trdue'lr:
$50 this is Libby Prison, is it?" said an
old woman whom some one was showing
through the great war museum.
"Yes, this is the place where the boys
were shut up
well. now" she said, lit does seem
rather strange that the boys had to stay
shut up here when there were thousands Of
Union men walking the streets right here
in Chicago. and l dare soy many of them
passed the prison every day. And there
another thing l don't understand. Camp
Douglas was Union prison and Libby @
Confederate prison, only short distance
apart. ] don't see why the Government
allowed the rebels TO set up prison so
close TO Camp Douglas. War is strange and
hard to understand, suppose"

MALONE DISMISSED leading ma
tional organ of the Republican party, the
New York Tribune, dismisses MALONE to
retirement in the following curt terms:
PLAINLY the antagonism of genuine Re
pubhcans to General Malone and his
methods was more extensive than he and
his friends represented. With him at its
head the Republican party in Virginia can
not poll its strength. 1t has been hoped
that he and his supposed strong body of
former Confederate supporters were at
least able to secure q measurably free and
fair vote When he declares that in this
also he has completely failed there is no
excuse left for regarding him as the Moses
of republicanism at the South

Considering how little Mr.. Cleveland was

either Russell, Campbell, or Boise re-

The people of Virginia gave an order for
William Mahone's political obituary Tues
dav. The little boss was not simply
beaten; he was left on the field Of battle.
1t mas been an open secret for some weeks
that Malone was working tor the Republic
can nomination for Vice-President. If he
had commanded the full party vote, and
perhaps something more. he might have
gone into the national convention and de-
handed recognition for the South. But
he has succeeded in giving aid and comfort

crediting those Republicans the country

they insist on in partisan warfare.
