ROAD IMPROVEMENT.

As there Is no question before the people OF
Virginia to-day of more practical interest than
the improvement of the public roads all sug-
gestions originating with those who have had
an opportunity of observing the defects of
the present system on the ground are deserv-
ing Of more than ordinary attention.
There is a communication in tho last issue
of the South Boston Times which contains
number OF valuable points which were evi-
IDENTIFY advanced by one who has given con-
siderable thought TO all the conditions Of the
subject and which are worthy of brief re-
cital.
According to this correspondent, each
county should lie divided into road districts
to be determined by the MAIN tAoEo1ghiaFes
leading to the business centre Of the county,
each road district 10 be under the general
supervision OF a commission OF three mon,
who are to serve without compensation like
similar commissions in the city.
This commission is to have the right to
appoint q road overseer for the district, whose
salary shall be fixed by the county superyis-
ors. The work Of this overseer is to be pass
ed upon by the commission, and their
counteEsignat9Te TO his warrants shall be de-
pendent upon the satisfactory performance of
the duties imposed upon him. Each oyerseer
shall be supplied with teams, tools and
vehicles by the State through the county. and
as a security for the care and management Of
this property, he shall be required to give
bond
The oyerseer shall be empowered TO employ
regular road force at wages approved by the
commission, but every citizen shall have the
right 10 work ont his road tax if he shah pre-
fer to do 80. To supplement the regular
force, if it shall be considered to be desirable,
application shall be made for a certain num-
Der Of convicts 10 be guarded and fed at the
expense Of the county
The revenue for road building shall he de-
rived from the fines of those who fail h. re-
spond to the call of tho road oyeIseer from
fines for petty ofenses from tax on vehicles
OF every sort, from the abolition Of useless
Offices, such as the commissionership of the
revenue, the duties of which can be easily dis
charged by the county treasurer, and finally
from the amount which can be saved by car
rying on: the recommendations of the Gov
ernor with respect TO the cutting down of
criminal expenses.

COLLEGE BARBARITy.

| Mr. William LLOYD Garrison has written
| letter addressed TO the president and faculty
OF Harvard College. in which no justly COM
plains Of the barbarous cruelties practiced by
| A secret society connected with tho college,
known as the ID. X T. Society. 1t is stated
| that. among other tortures pracueed, mo VIC
| TINS arm is barred for branding. and a lighted
cigar is passed from tho shoulder 70 the ell
bow. innictng deep and savage burns. And as
Mr.. Garrison says not only lifelong scars re-
suit. but. what is more. blood-poisoning IS
likely to be produced.
Such barbarity ia certainly worthy of tho
ingenuity Of the most savage tribe OF blood
thirsty Indians that every lived. and therefrom
may be deduced another comparison between
the South and the North decidedly favorable
to the former. Southern boys at schoo! and
college have. from time immemorial,
been fond Of fun, and have al
ways initiated new students with ap
propriate ceremonies. They have been always
very fond OF playing harmless tricks which
they consider very amusing, and which sub
ject the victim 10 much Inconvenience, per-
haps. at times but such a thing az down
right cruelty practiced for fun has always
been unknown in Southern institution. At
West Point for instance in ante-bellum days,
this initiation Of 'plebs" was probably carried
on to greater extent than anywhere else but
even there downright cruelty was scarcely ever
pIaeticed, and whenever a case occurred 1t
could invariably be traced to Northern
cadet. And yet here at one Of the oldest
and leading institutions Of learning in the
North we hear of such terrible barbarities be-
ing carried on in the name Of fun that even a
typical Northern man feels compelled to pro-
test against them.
Nothing could more strikinGly illustrate the
different civilizations 81 the two sections We
constantly read in Northern papers about bar
barities in the South. but they generally exist
more in the Imagination of traducers of our
section than anywhere else. Certainly they
never begin to compare in downright cruelty
with those constantly occurring in the North.
and 10 people who live in so large and brittle
glass house as this Harvard exposure shows
our Northern neighbors TO inhabit, can afford
to throw stones at anybody.

The year Just expiring presents the most
remarkable record in the volume of exports
that has been noted in the history Of the
United States. The exports for the month of
October alone exceeded in value 800 000 coo.
the first time that our exports have ever run
over that figure In November they rose to
the phenomenal value of $4,000. 900, and 50
far as they have been reported for the month
Of December there Is a prospect that the
figures for the present month viii be even
larger than those for November. This extra
ordinary gain consists principally in the
amount OF the breadstulIs which have been
sent abroad. In November 10, 600, 600 bushels
OF wheat and 1,lf3,602 barrels OF -four were
shipped to Europe making az equivalent of
about e. 900 900 bushels of wheat as against
J,96S, 290 bushels fol- the same month last
year. The total value OF exports for the
twelve months ending with November amount
to s9i9, OPP, lS5. an excess Of $4,000, 900 over
the shipments for the corresponding period
N 1890. 1t Is estimated that the aggregate
exports for the twelve months ending January
/. 1892, will be not less than S955. 600 00O The
value of the imports FOR the twelve months
ending with November amounted TO S8l9. co.,
900 as against 1922 900 for the previous
year, which shows a considerable decline.
For the year ending January J. 1892 it is pro-
bablc that the exports will exceed the imports
by clio, 600, 900.
