Horse Stolen.

Mr.. A., H. Towherman had a horse
stolen several weeks ago from his prem
ices near Staunton. He sent off postals
to different parts of the State describing
the animal. On Tuesday evening he
received a telegram from Petersburg
that his horse was in that city and the
man who had stolen it under arrest.
Mr.. Towberman took the night train for
Petersburg, and on yesterday evening
telegraphea to Mr.. p. W. Landes that
the animal was his, and that the person
under arrest charged with taking him,
was ''Arch. Walker from our county
and my neighbor." This informa-
ton was great surprise to all who
know Mr.. Walker. He has been living
in Richmond recently, and no one
dreamed that he would commit such a
crime Mr. Walker is we'll connected in
Augusta and Rockingham by blood and
marriage, and there is nothing but the
most painful regret expressed at this
unfortunate turn in his life, IF he is the
person referred to.

Free Silver.


Senator Hiscock, of New York, in his
speech ON the silver bill in the Senate,
referred to Germany as an illustration
that the decentralization of silver did not
unfavorably affect trade, bnt on the CON
trary, helped it. This may or may not
be the case. But the reference is entirely
unfit and irrelevant. The conditions In
Germany were entirely different from
those existing here. Germany is a de-
veloped country; just as New England
and some of the eastern States are. The
South is the newest section OF the Union,
as far as material DEVELOPMENT 10 COP
cerned. 1t is the South that ought to
to demand as with one voice the free
coinage of silver, so as to increase the
currency by safe and universally recog-
nized medium OF exchange. 1t is natural
when material development has practi-
cally been completed, when material
resources have reached the exhaustive
stage, that the accumulation of bonds
and money should be held tight They
want dear money then, for their wealth
is in bonds and stocks. But in the South
the wealth is in the earth yet, either in
mines or virgin lands and forests. We
want the necessary means to use and con
vert them into live values. The necessities
of the case with the South cannot be
measured or judged by the conditions in
any old, developed country, whether it
he Germany or the New England States.
The South is to be the great wealth pro-
ducing section of the country for the
future. The West and Southwest and
Pacific slope will continue to grow, but
the important improvement will be in
the South, and it is to that section that
legislation should look, when consider
ing the industrial and material condi-
ton of the country and the laws nsces-
sary to promote it. The South wants
free silver and not to get it will be
fatal bIunder
