The hope Of Senator Barbour if it be
realized, will exhibit wisdom in members
of the General Assembly which is rarely
displayed in that body. He says that from
what he heard while in Richmond recently
he thinks moderate railroad bill will be
passed BY the Legislature this winter,
one that will be acceptable to the rail-
roads and which both the railroads and
the public will look upon Us a fair arbiteT

FROM OuF ItEulur NDiINoPphN0tAN-l
WAsHrsGToS. December 19.-The most
pleasant piece of gossip heard among the
Virginia delegation to-day wasin reference
10 the news in the morning papers from
London 10 the effect that the English
bondholders had agreed to accept the plan
Of settlement for the Virginia public debt.
When the House met Senator Barbour was
on the floor. and he was asked for few ex-
pressions on the subject. He said that OF
course he was very glad to hear that SET
Element bad Nbeen reached. ana he
believed it was the best thing that
could have been done-both Tor
Virginia and for the bondholders. Inc
fact of the matter was the State had offered
all ste was able to pay, and he was glad
the bondholders had decided TO treat
fairly. 1t was out OF the question TO think
of increasing taxation in Virginia. The
Mccullough bill, which was offered as
plan OF settlement more than fifteen years
ago. and which was not acceptable IN the
State by the majority OF the voters, MI
Barbour declared, was beyond the ability
of Virginia TO meet then or now.
RRJoICED.
Colonel O'Ferral said that he was ex-
ceedinpiy reioiced over the good news.
10 felt certain tnat II was the best thing
that coDld have been done, and with the
settlement of the debt now practically as,
sured new era would dawn upon the ola
Commonwealth. Her resources would de-
velop more rapidly. taxation couid DC
kept within reasonable limits, ana tne
vexatious debt question would be elimi-
mated from politics.
GLORIOUS.
kNrn. "a
glorious piece of news. and hrs colleague,
Dir. Lawson, Joined in saying that 1t
looked a. # old Virginia would now make
rapid strides forward.
Representative Henderson, OF North
Carolina, said: Living IN ON ADJOINING
State / am greatly rejolced TO know that
Virginia is in such far way TO settle her
debt. The State Will be relieved OF trou-
blesome problem ~.
Rcpresautative Anderson. OF West VIZ
rinia. was asked what he thought OF the
mater: Glad to hear the good news
he SAID. " Il will be great thing tor VIZ
ginia.'
HE SMILED.
How about West virginia." Mr.. Alder
son was asked. Does she feel like put
ting up her one third 2" avn,
Mr.. Anderson smiled and said: Why.
West Virginia Is always disposed to DO the
right thing" and then the handsome
y6unp member from the Charleston dis
trlct passed on and his smile broadened as
he probably thought that the United
states courts had never definitely settled
the question as to the liability OF west
Virginia. ...
Mr.. Merediths certificate of election to
Congress not having yet arrived ne could
not be sworn in tins morning as member
Of the House.
Senator Barbour said this morning that
he took A careful survey OF the House
while IN session and he thinks 1t is fine
looking body of men.
