Tho Wicked Conpositor.

The Pittsburg Dispatch is pained to see that the typographical error has been getting iu it's fiendish work on its religious contemporaries, ono clerical editor tried to say that a prominent clergyman was the ''Barnabas of the Baptists. but the uaregencratod com positor made 1t ''Barrabas;n while an- other who intended to declare that no Protestant Episcopal Bishop has any sense of humor was mortified to find that he had accused those prominent gentlemen of being without 'any sense of honor" Under these circumstances the religious editors would be justified in visiting upon the competitors the pains and penalties of eNcommunica- ton.

Postal Reform.

According to the Washington Post Post

needed in this country. What be SAID reads

word for Richmon d.

To the Editor OF the Dispatch;
The action OF the Chamber OF Commerce,
taken in connection with the remarks or
Captain Vawter at the closing exercises OF
the Mechanics School, sound the keynote OF
the prosperity OF Richmond. The unalded
efforts of the Chamber Of Commerce will not
be likely TO accomplish much beyond the
mere advertising OF some OF the advantages
possessed by The city and It's surroundings.
The CITY government should give the whole
country some exhibition OF life and public
spirit, and the first meeting OF the City
Conncil should publish TO the world just
what il is willing to offer by way OF induces
ment In the remission OF taxes, &c. There
prevails, to some extent, the impression that
public sentiment in Richmond IA very con-
siderSbly opposed TO small manufacturing
enterprises, and while II 10 known TO citizens
OF the city TO be a false impression, yet the
force OF the effect is not lessencd.
The public spirit manifested by the Cham
Der OF Commerce is commendable and even
prajsewortby. but until the Advertising
COMMITTEES can answer satisfactorily the
question as to why weare unable 10 keep our
own capital and young men at home ali their
advertising is likely to fall stilioorn on the
ears OF energy and enterprise.
That Richmond has great future before
H.
firmed old fogy, who usually recognizes no.
thing except the glories OF the past as worthy
OF his thought, begins to see. But we will
lave to convince the outside world that there
IL liberality of thought on the part OF the
average city father in other matters besides
the collection Of taxes.
There are few conditions more uniavora'
bic to the healthy growth Of community
than an ignorant aud idle working class, and
one OF the first thoughts OF our city govern
ment should be 10 devise means for their EN-
poymeut by Offering inducements for the
incoming OF capitalists. Nothing that the
Chamber Of Commerce can do In the way OF
courtesy aud politeness can possibly Offset
what appears TO be stolid indifference on the
part Of the city government. Other cities
unite the Official action OF their government
with the public spirit snd enterprise OF its
citizens who possess advanced thoughts, and
the combination usually brings success.
The writer 10 personally stranger to every
firm mentioned as pecuniary contributors to
the object OF the Chamber OF Commerce,
aud has no other motive beyond hope that
he may help to wake up the wise men who
are sleeping while opportunities are passing.

Our northern brethren sometimes make

failure OF the facts 10 agree with their theories

be more nearly destitute of even the slight
est basis of truth than the following para
graph from the Boston Advertiser;
during all the century past no radical
change has been made ia that Constitution
which Washington, trst OF all the Presi-
dents, took a solepsn oath TO support and
obey. True, fifteen times It has been
samended,' but not one Of the amendments
touches its essential nature. Without vital
addition, or subtraction, or mutation, that
organic plan OF free government which was
at first tested by 1000, 600 people Is found to
stand The strain put upon 10 10y more than
10000, 900 people. The form Of government
which was adopted with fear and trembling
is now maintained with confidence and Joy"
What are the iscts' The first amendment
guarantees religious liberty; freedom OF
speech and OF the press; the right OF petit.

The third amendment protects the people
from the qusrtering Of soldiers upon them.
The fourth guarantees the sacredness Of their
