patriotism in the breasts of our boys than by
revealing to them the real significance of gov
eminent of the people. Sir William Jones long
ago reminded his fellows that men who know
their rights and knowing dare maintain are
" what constitutes State" Precisely; but rights
cannot be maintained unless they are known,
and cannot be known without study. Pending
the establishment of the proposed chars, IL Is
gratifying to reflect that something worthy OF
general imitation has been done in this state
of late in line with Mr.. Tale's enthusiastically
patriotic recommendation. \ large number OF
orr high schools and OF our other institutions
in which the boys and girls of New-l DIRK re-
ccive the rudiments of their education have
been presented with the American flag. Such
a gift is calculated to set the scholars to think

who fought under the colors which wave over
the schoohouses. In many cases the flags have
been given by Posts of the Grand Army OF the
Republic and veterans of the late War-whlch

of to-day-have made appropriate addresses 1ull
of stirring "reminiscences. II is to be hoped
that these flag presentations will continue until
the Red, White and Blue is found waving
over every schoohouSe in the land. Whatever
serves to develop the patriotic instinct Is a
public benefaction.
But no number of flag presentations can take
the place Of the chair of America the char
from which shall be taught the things OF when
no American youth who is interested IN the
manifest destiny of his country can afford to
be ignorant. I. is understood that all the
money which was left to American colleges IN

paid to them. When thus enriched, if not be-

The New Year opened with two fair clopcmcnts.

of the onc-horsc buggy" but otherwise it did

Mace in Kentucky and did something toward re-

cast into the shade by the wholesale jail de-

thirty years Of his life in futile attempts to
convert the inhabitants Of the Dutch Last In
dies to Christianity, and whose PROSECUTING
policy while in his present Office has led to
such a costly instruction among the ISamite
population Of the colonies that an enormous
deficit has taken the place Of the usual large
surplus in thenationaI annual budget. This, Of
course. furnishes another cause for dissatisfac-

the deep religious sentiments of the Dutch are
sufficient TO enable them to view with equa-
nimity such injury to their material interests.

that it was her intention to marry Bee. AT this
her mother went into Mysteries. and her fathef'

scene and being duly informed of the cause OF

Sally loved peace and quiet, and so she promptly
said that she did not mean TO convey the ldca
that she insisted Bee for she did NOT: WHAT
She wanted was TO get married, and Fletcher
Lewis would do well as anybody else whereas
there was great rejoicing in the Gray household,
Fletcher Lewis being the choice Of the whole
family. except. unfortunately. of Sally. January
was selected the wedding-day, and active
preparations were made for it, On New-learS
night an entertainment was given at the Methodist
Church. at which everybody in town was present
Of the church and attracted little attention, eN-
cept while on the platform giving the parts OF
the programme assigned to them. Bee recited

soon after Sally gave Curfew Shall Not Ring To-
night. and Beautiful Snow, 10 loud and bolster
Gus applause. Fletcher Lewis then followed with
the remarks which have been either justly or
uniusty attributed to Spartacus, the Gladiator,
who lived a good many years ago at Rome.
Fletcher threw great earnestncsS into his delivery
and anon shook the phegmatic rafters or bathed
the audience in tears. If sc be men, follow
me :" cried Fletcher Lewis saving the excited
air ferociously with his arms and Kissing his
words through his cenchcd teeth. Strike down
yon guard and gain the mountain passes. and there
do bloody work, as did sres at old Thermopy-
lae!" The audience were speHound, with the
exception Of Bee Scott and Sally Gray. who at
this point got up and went out climbed into
buggy. drove five miles to ParkSley Station, and
took the train for Accomack Court House, where
they were married, while Fletcher Lewis foolishly
went up into the mountain passes with his friend
Spartacus and there did bloody work With e.
Clsudius Pulcher.
AS we said at the first these elopements, while
far from perfect are much above the aeerage for
1890. and they give us hope that 1891 may see a
marked improvement in the line.

Another young man entrusted with diamonds
by Maiden Lane dealers has abscOnded. II has
always been one Of the mysteries Of the trade
how jewellers could proitably continue TO give
ont diamonds freely on memorandum although
many Of the persons 10 whom they are coniided
prove untruStworthy. Any person with good
address and some acquaintance among the deal
ers can apparently have all the diamonds he can
reasonably want without security. Either the
profits Of the Jrwelry business are very great
when an honest customer is found, or the jewellers
rely on recovering the stolen goods without much
expense from the pawnbrokcrs with whom the
thieves leave them The police. who are con-
stontlv hunting for these diamond thieves, would
undoubtedly be glad if the dealers would show
GREATER caution.
