1--WE KNEW.

Could we but draw back the curtains
That surrounds each others lives,
See the naAed heart and spirit.
Know what spur the action gives,
Often we should find IL better,
Purer than we judge we should;
We should love each other better
II we only understood.
Could we Judge all deeds by motives,
Bee the good and bad within,
Often we should love the sinner
All the while we loathe the sin.
Could we know the powers working
To o'erthrow integrity,
We should judge each others errors
With more patient charity.
II we knew the cares and trials,
Knew the effort all in vain,
And the bitter disappointment,
Understood the loss and gain
Would the grim, external roughnesB
Seem, | wonder, just the same2
Should we help where now we hinder1
Should we pity where we blame?
Ali We Judge each other harshly,
Knowing not LIES hidden force;
Knowing not the fount Of action
il less morbid at its source.
Seeing not amid the evil
All the golden grains Of good;
OH we'd love each other better
II we only understood.

The Cost of Tieing shoestrings

The Cost of Tieing Shoestrings
From the Detroit Tribune.
One of the managers Of a big East
ern knitting mill has made a calcula-
tion that the shoestrings OF work
inc girl will come united on an aver
ag e three times per diem, and that a
Girl will lose about fifty seconds ev-
ery time she stoops to retie them.
most of the employees have two feet,
so this entails a loss of 800 seconds
every day for each girl. There are
about 400 girls employed in this fac
tory. and therefore the gentleman
finds that 43,S00,000 seconds are
wasted in the course of year, when
time, at the average rate OF wages is
worth S943.17h. Orders have &C
eordingiy been issued thatgirls must
wear only buttoned shoes OF Con
gress CATERS under penalty OF DIS
charge.

England and Portugal.

A London telegram In referring to the
Anglo Portuguese trouble says that France.
Russia. and Spain are greatly tempted TO
take portugal's part, but the effect OF snch
step would be TO drive England into the
bosom of the triple alliance. Exactly. Eng
land has the whip hand in tho European
situation. Whatever may be tho syinpa-
thies Of France, Spain, and Russia-and
why they should have any sympathy with
Portugal's dog-in.the-mange policy IN
Africa is hard TO undcrstand--they can
not afford 70 antagonize England, while
on the other hand, as BISMARCK has
stated, the friendship of England is worth
more to the German empire than all that
Germany could expect TO gain on the
upper Nile. Germany is the triple ain
ance, and whatever may be her ambition
20 enter upon colonization schemes she is
not going TO throw that ambition into
the scale against British guns. seeing
that these guns will serve her IN
good stead in preserving the peace
of Europe until German homoge-
neity has become an accomplished
fact. Lord SALrsBuRY's tacit adherence to
the triple alliance--that is, bis enunciation
that England had well-defned policy
regarding the Balkan States from which
che would not depart-has perhaps had as
much TO do with keeping France and Rus
ala quiet as has the line of German, Aus
trian, and Italian bayonets that interpose
between the Cars domains and the
French republic.

TUESDAY. JANUARY %, 1890.
The New Railroad.

II was stated recently in our columns that
= new raiload to lead from Pittsburgh, Pa.
60 Lexington, Va. had been projected and
that work upon il was expected to be begun
before long. In the Wheeling Register OF
che 24th a letter from Upshur county,
West Virginia. SAYS that the new railroad IS
70 be constructed by New York capitalists.
1t is evidently the same scheme OF when
we made editorial mention few weeks
ago. The proposed route runs from Pitts
burch through Connellsville and Union
town, Pennsylvania, thence to Rowlesburg,
Preston county. on the Baltimore and Ono
road where il will cross thatroad. Thenpro-
ceeding south it will make direct line by
the very shortest possible route tothe Gias-
row. Buena Vista. and Goshen furnaces and
Che undeveloped mineral section lying
north of them in the Old Dominion.
This road, if it is ever built, will run
through one of the finest regions in the
world--a region rich in natures bounties.
II we were 10 tell of the stores of coal and
lumber which lie in West Virginia along
the route of the projected road. we should
throw ourselves open to the charge OF gross
cxaggeration. prominent Pittsburgher Is
reported by the Registers correspondent 10
have said that the road will open up to the
world, and especiallyto Pittsburgh, large
quantity of the finest iron ore to be found
anywhere. He states the length of the road
at from $50 to 800 miles long. This estimate
shows that the Pittsburghers ore looking
only to their own end of the line, and are
not troubling themselves as to where tho
houthorn terminus of the road is to be.
But such q road will not stop at Buena
Vista, OF Lexington. or any other point IN
The Valley Of Virginia. II must either con-
meet with q road leading to Richmond or
elsewhere in Eastern Virginia, or else 1t
must be itself extended in this direction.
These Pittsburgh ironmongors arc won
ticrfully shrewd businessmen. and know
what they are about whenever they engage
I'm building railroad or an iron foundry or
furnace. Nevertheless, it would seem
that to carry iron ore. or iron itself. from
Rockbridge county. Va. to Pittsburgh,
by railroad, would cost SO much as to
throw all profit out of the case. However,
whether those ironmongers come to the
ore or transport the ore to Pittsburgh,
Virginia will be benefited by the opera
zion. Richmond should keep her eyes
turned to the region of West Virginia
which this new road will open up to her
trade, and do whatever is necessary to
make this city practically the eastern or
southern terminus of the same.

Ma or Daniels Grafton.

Lord BsouanAm said that it added o
new pang to death for a man to know
that Lord CAMPBELL was to write the his
tory of his life. Precisely the reverse OF
Lord BRouonAM's sarcastic hit must be the
Judgment Of the enlightened world as to
tile histories of the lives of LEE and DAVIS
which JoHy w. DANIEL prepared for the
information of future generations and for
refreshing the memories of men who are
familiar with most of the facts which he
arrayed in such resplendent rhetoric
IL is fortunate for Virginia and the
South that such q man as JOHN W..
DANIEL should have arisen just in time to
do honor to the memory OF the illustrious
men whose names would have filed the
trump of fame if they had been success
ful. but whose deeds and lives are none
the less worthy of the pen of the greatest OF
historians because fate pounced upon their
heroic and patriotic efforts.
Major DANIELS Grafton OF JEFFERSON
DAVIS defies criticism and commands un-
stinted and unmixed admiration. Itshould
be printed in book OF pamphlet form by
tens of thousands. 1t is full, round, and
complete. Acting upon this belief we
shall not presume to do aught more than
"To leave it alone In Its glory"

The strength of customs ia well illus
trated in the matter Of reforms III snne-
rails, which meets the appreciation of all
but finds an exemplar in none. The Nor
folk 'Vsrginidn says;
"The suggestions Of Mr.. Moser have q
practical value in the interest OF large
minority of people in every community.
Let us honor our dead with true, heartfelt
respect. for it too frequently happens, we
fear, under the present burial system that
the total of grief is not with many deeper
than gloomy-looking lapels or sleeves.
Not only inexpensive. but decorous in-
stead of parade funerals is needed re-
form. These modern displays are too Of
ten, to say the least, like coffin at we'd
ding-the right thing in the wrong place.
How frequently widows and orphans suffer
for the necessaries of life through the per-
nicious example of their rich neighbors in
this respect it would be difficult to esti-
mate. Let the wealthy lead the crusade In
behalf of plain. transformations buriais,
with better symbols of sorrow than flow
ers or long trains of vehicles-the highest
measure of respect modestly expressed"

JoHs NJ. LANosroN. who is contesting Mr..
VFSAntE's right to scat in the House OF
Representatives at Washington, is reported
in the New York World as having said in
late interview that the highest Judicial tri-
bunal of tho country declared that the ne
gro had no rights which the white men
were bound to respect.
Thus is ignorance manifested by one Of
the most intelligent colored men In
Virginia. and thus a metropolitan paper
perpetuatesa falsehood. What "the high
est judicial tribunal of tho country" said
on this point was that at certain time III
the past the whites looked upon tho negro
as having no rights which they were bound
to respect.

Our Automatically last week Mr..
Speaker REED refused TO appoint tellers,
though asked to do so, declared that there
was no rule of the House of Represents
tiyes which made it his duty to comply
with such demand. and after the Repub-
lican members had voted to sustain that
decision proceeded with the other business
of the House. On Saturday last the same
autocrat repeatedly appointed tellers
upon the demand of Mr.. BnEcKINRIDaE. of
Arkansas. 1t il evident that MIR. REED con-
sidcrs himself as law unto himself. When
he chooses to appoint tellers be will APP
point them. When he prefers not to APP
point telers he will not appoint them.
And all this in the year 1890.

How Girls Can be Pretty.

From the Ladies' Home Journal.
You come back to town richer in
flesh, more determined to success,
but just wondering q little bit at the
way the kisses Of the sun and the
browning that flashed from the waves
have agected your skin. There is no
use in telling you that freckles and
sunburn are becoming; you do not
contradict your brothers when they
tell you this, but in your heart you
do not believe they quite know.
Drink milk twice q day, and re-
member that it must be ordinary
milk, not cream. 1t is said to be
more whitening to the skin than
anything applied on the outside, and
surely it is at once pleasant and
healthy.
Elder-flower water, lemon-juice and
rose water are all simple remedies for
freckles, and viii undoubtedly re-
move them if they are regularly used
and allowed to dry on the skin. A
famous beauty is said to keep her
hands white by always using the half
of q lemon in washing her hands,
exactly as she would a piece of
soap; and, although freckles come,
still nothing is 80 good for
the skin as sunshine; it makes the
underskin flush, and delicate pink
and white is the result. A little care
about a broad-brimmed hat, and q
gOod-sized sun-umbrella will give
you all the good desired from SUM-
shine and keep away its defects.
Keep on the sunny side of the street
in the winter. You know that is the
place chosen by Englishmen, south
ern women and dogs, so the friends
will look at the good skin of all three,
and use the proverb to point moral
and adorn 8 tale.
