THE RIGHT WILL RIGHT ITSELF.
BY JOSEPHINE POLLARD.

When overcome with anxious fears,
And moved with passion strong,
Because the right seems losing ground
And everything goes wrong,
How oft does admonition say:
Put trouble on the shelf;
Truth will outlive the liars day,
And Right will right itself"
BY all the triumphs of the past,
BY all the victories won,
The good achieved, the progress made
Each day, from sun to sun:
In spite of artful ways employed
By perfidy or pelf,
Of one thing we can rest assured,
The Right will right itself.
Unshaken in our faith and zeal
T'is ours to do and dare,
To find the place we best can fill,
And serve our Maker there;
For he is only brave who thus
Puts trouble on the shelf,
And trusts in God, for by his aid
The right will right itself

a SNAP JUDGMENT.
A Handful Passes Resolutions,
Though Strongly Opposed.

A SHINY attended meeting of the
Real Estate Exchange was held last
night. President Hockaday held those
who came in after the usual time of as
sembling in order to obtain q quorum to
do business. Finally it was found that
nine firms wore present on the floor
and the exchange was called to order.
The committee on industries was in
structcd to draw up the contract for the
glass works and submit it to the Ex-
change, No committees wero present
to renort.
The meeting, owing to tho slender
attendance, assumed 4 rather informal
character Mr.. Spindle introduced
set of resolution which were generally
construed to be an Endorsement of the
bond ordinances, and urging the fire
department and civil engineers to vote
for them. There was sharp discussion
of the resolutions. Messrs. Cutchin and
Spindle supported them, and Messrs.
Tucker, Hill and others opposed them.
President IIockuday said that as the
meeting was more or less informal he
would take the liberty of calling alton
tlon to the fact that so few members of
the exchange were present the public
would not regard any action as really
representing the exchange.
Messrs. Mccormick and Hill denouno-
ed the action of the Council in ignoring
the resolution of the exchange in favor
of the Advisory Board, and thought the
time was inopportune to pass any more
resolutions.
1t was pointed out that though there
were nearly sixty firms in the exchange,
only nine were represented, and Of
these four had declared themselves cp-
posed to taking action on the resolu-
tions.
Both Mr.. Cutchin and Mr.. Spidlo
made strong speeches in favor of the
resolutions, and though motion to
table it had been made and seconded it
was withdrawn and the resolution
passed.
The resolutions were for some reason,
presumably by accident, taken away
before q copy could be secured, and The
TIMES in consequence can only give the
substance.
Then the exchange adjourned. After
adjournment President Hockaday, Mr..
Tucker, Mr.. Hill and others, who had
silently acquiesced In the vote on the
resolutions, plainly expressed their
opinions that the resolutions were I'M
timely and would fail to carry any i'm
preston with the public.

DRAGGING THE RIVER.
A FruitIess Search for the Body
of Cameron.

Prompt to the call of TIE TIMES
about one hundred volunteers assembled
at the mayors Office Sunday morning at
10 o'clock for the purpose Of making a
search for the remains of Charles
Cameron, who was thought to have
been drowned In Roanoke river.
Several members of the Viligant Fire
Company were present. They furnished
hooks from the ladder truck with which
to drag the river. Officers Bower and
Vest were present and accompanied the
party at the request of TIE TIMES. TIE
TINES staff led the party and conducted
the search.
All the way from tho mayors Office
until * street was reached the party
was gradually swelled by recruits.
Everybody stood on their porches as
they passed, and bid the searchers God
speed il their work.
Arriving at II street, portion of the
party was sent to tho opposite side of
the river, and the search began. Every
possible nook and corner was thoroughly
probcd as far as tho hooks would reach.
Down the river for two miles, over ifs,
through mud and swamps, tangles and
underground the scarcherS went. Tho
river was up too high to conduct the
search in boats and was as muddy as q
clay hole. An immense volume of water
roared down between the hills and the
scene was one not calculated to afford
much encouragement, but tho party
went to work with Il vim.
Perhaps ono of the most tireless
workers was a man named Cunningham.
For hours he handled tho heavy pole
and was unwilling to give up any point
where it looked possible for body to
lodge.
Shortly after . o'clock it began to
rain and the party gave up the search.
They were tired and worn out, and the
river being in no condition for such a
search, the project was abandoned.
During tn > search it was ascertained
that Cameron had been seen near Major
Andrew Lewis the same evening he dis
appeared. lie was walking and leading
his horse at the time, but afterward
mounted and rode Off in the direction of
where his saddle was found. He was
sober enough to mount his horse with
the saddle girth not fastened.
No clcw has since developed tending
to show that Cameron was not drowned
in the river, and it now seems to be the
universal opinion that such has been
his fate. or that he was murdered and
thrown into the river.
1t is more than likely that the body
was washed down miles below the city,
and as communication along the river
between Roanoke and Danville is almost
impossible, it is likely the matter
will be long in receiving proper atten-
ton in that locality.
Some advance the theory that Cam
eron has been sunk to the bottom of the
river by murderer, and that the miss
ing bridal and blanket were used for
that purpose.

DIGNIFIED AND CONSERVATIVES.

The colored freeholders of the city
have thoroughly 'canvassed the bond
question and resolved to follow the lead
of the large number of white citizens
who will vote against the ordinances
next Tuesday.
The speakers at the meeting last mig lit
are to be commended for their dignified
and respectful discussion of the acts of
the City Council, many of which they
commended, and determination to unite
with the white voters in the effort to Sc
cure reformation in tho expenditure of
public funds. They favored an advisory
board, and, failing in this, a postpone
ment of the election until after new
Council had been chosen.
