A LOST TREASURE FOUND.

Mrs. Brouder Receivers a Ring That Was
Buried for Eleven Years.
One day last week while small boy was
digging in a vacant lot on Mt. Oliver he
unearthed a ring at depth of two feet in
the toll. 1t was solid gold wedding ring
and had the initials 81. B." engraved on it.
The next day it was discovered that the ring
belonged to Mrs. John Brouder, resident
OF the hill.
Mrs. Brouder had lost the ring II years
ago, and after thorough search had given
it up as lost forever. The ring is as bright
as the day it was lost and Mrs. Brouder feels
proud of her long lost treasure.

The first arrest since the recent order COM

the principal downtown streets at 1880
o'clock Sunday morning was made yester-

officer told him to clear out several times.
He refused to do it and swore Mt the officer
for interfering with him.
In less time than it would take him to put

OPERATORS MUsT not GAMBLE.

Employees.

The general management of the Western
Union Telegraph have lately issued orders
to the operators which threatens them with
dismissal for frequenting pool rooms, at
which money is staked upon the result of
horse races, or any other place where any
game of chance is in operation.
The order has been strictly adhered to in
st. Louis and other cities, where pool rooms,
are now under the laws protection, but the
gambling laws of this state forbid pool sell
ing and as a result operators have not got
the opportunities to visit those places in this

This VIII Never DO.

Our exuberant and original contempora-
~, the Atlanta Constitution, prints long
editorial urging, in the event of the pas
sage of the force bill. the organization of
home league clubs in the South TO boycott
northern goods The suggestion is en-
dorsed by Governor Gordon in communi-
cation to the Herald which we print this
morning.
The editor of the Constitution is undoubt-
edly serious in this proposal, although we
should prefer to regard il as an outburst OF
irony and humor. If there is anything
that would insure the passage of the force
bill by an overwhelming pressure of north
ern sentiment il would be the threat that
unless northern people voted according TO
the dictates of southern politicians the
southerners would not buy their goods.
There is something so mercenary in the
suggestion, something so grotesque. that 1t
is difficult to treat it with seriousness.
And yet we might as wei say seriously TO
our friend in Atlanta who cannot dislike
the force bill or any legislation akin to it
more cordially than the Herald, that if he
wants to see every northern and western
State 90 Republican let him make 1t clear
that the southernerS mean TO Introduce
boycotting into their politics. Upon that is
sue we can promise New York to the next
Republican candidate for President by
fifty Thousand majority.
The northern people will simply not en-
dure it. Their opinions are not for sale.
Their goods, not their principles, are in
the market. To be told that unless we
vote as was dictated down on the Suwanee
river there would be no southern markets.
for northern manufactures would make
the most hIde-bound Democratic peddler
a Republican.
MOI 1t will never do. The northern
people mean justice and fraternity to the
South. They mean TO put the heel upon
this force bill as they did to other mea-
sures of the same nature. But it will
never be done under any command from
the South TO subordinate their political
independence to the paltry consideration
of trade

A Destructive Hail Storm.

All accounts agree that the hail-storm of
last Friday in Louisa, Hanover. and Gooch-
land counties. apparently centering at
Johnson's Springs in Goochland, was one
of the most destructive, 30 far as it went,
that the State has ever known. 1t appears
that the loss of crops has been complete in
the region visited and that the sufferers are
hopeessly undone unless helping hand
is given them at once. An appeal is made
to Richmond people as we'll as to Others
for such aid as will prevent suffering and
as the farmers in the neighborhood of the
devastated region are too poor to extend.
Funds sent to the Relief Committee, Dab
ney's post-office. Louisa county, will be
thankfully received and acknowledged.
Read the account of the ravages of the
storm in our letter from Dabney's this
morning. 1t is from the pen of cor
respondent thoroughly reliable in every

A War with England.

To relieve the monotony of able edi-
torials and ingenious conjectures concern
ing the forco and tariff bills the newspa-
pers are indulging in speculations as to
what would become OF our sea-coast cities
in case Of war with Great Britain. Their
conclusions are that we have such small
navy and sea-coast dofences so few and
feeble that resistance would be almost
useless. None Of them seem TO consider 1t
worth while to take into account that
England would not care TO leave her own
ports in Ill parts of the world without tho
protection of great ironclad ships while
she sent her fleets to prey upon the Ameri-
can seaboard. No doubt we are i'll pre-
pared for war, but England would not
have il oil her own way. Our ships could
at least alarm her enough to compel her to
keep some of her vessels near her own ter
ritory.
But there never ought to be another war
between these two countries. All future
disputes should be referred to peaceful ar
bitration, but should the British Lion turn
upon us some day the thing for the United
move its capital to this city and from here
conduct operations against the enemy.
Richmond is the most improbable city
in the Atlantic States. There ia water
enough in our river TO float considerable
nayies. but such are the meanders OF the
stream near Richmond, and the deiences
provided by nature. that handful of men
with shore-batteries and torpedoes and OBJ
structions sunken in the channel could
keep all her Majesty's ironclads at bay.
The like Of this we did in our contest with
the Federal Government, but we would
now have to go lower down the James
river than we did then. We would have 20
drop down below Dutch Gap instead of to
Drewry's Bluff.
Had the vessels which were defeated at
Drewry's Bluff in 1862 been armed with
modern breech-loadlng rified guns they
could have thrown shells into the Capitol
Square; had they had the armament of
to-day our solid shots from Drewry's
would have had no more effect upon them
than rain upon the back of duck.
We have here in Richmond not only a
position easily defensible, but railroad
system that would keep us in communica-
ton with all our country. foundries that
could supply shot and shell in great album
dance, and what is more, veteran soldiers
to point the great and small guns and to
use swords and bayonets.
We therefore modestly invite the atten-
ton of the General Government to our adj
vantages and suggest that it would be wise
to locate here some of its arsenals and gun.
factories.

Our Old Canal.

The Dispatch is indebted to United
States Senator CULLoM, of Illinois, for
copy Of the pamphlet The Ms
sissippi and It's Forty -Four NacigaJle
Tributaries" by ALEXANDER d. ANDER-

one of which shows among other artificial
extensions OF the Mississippi system of

The line of the old canal, or at least the

power purposes, there is little to remind

Increase IN Revenues.

The taxables of Virginia are far greater
than those of some of the most boastful
southern States Of equal area and popula-
ton, and it is gratifying to know that the
reassessment returns now coming In Will
show an increase of Sl5,000,O0O or $40 ,OOO,-
900. Thus our State revenues will be sup
plemented to the extent of the tax OF 40
cents on the 800. and this money will re-
lieve the congested condition of the trea-
sury which has prevailed at certain
periods in the past few years.
The most wonderful increase of values is
in Richmond and Henrico, Manchester,
Norfolk. Lynchburg, Roanoke, and the
counties of Southwest Virginia, where
there have been great booms and large IN
vestments in iron-plants. The most
unlooked-for depreciation of values Is in
the upper Potomac counties.
