When DR.. Robert Koch, Of Berlin. some
two years back, announced that he had
discovered a specific for consumption. the
civilized world came forward ready to

regret that amounted to the deepest sor-
row that the value Of his discovery was
subsequently brought into question 10y

world to an absolute condemnation Of it,
But the discovery was a real one, and

REV. r.. r.. HOWIsON AND GREG'S
HISTORY.

The Dispatch for December 18th con-
tanned a communication. signed up
lands" which made an aggravated at
tack upon Greg's History Of the United
States. The Dispatch Of the 18th contains
a card from Messrs. West. Johnston &
Co. the publishers in this country Of
Greg's History, in which they state that
"Cpland's" letter was written by Rev.
r. r. Howison, who has himself Just
published a history Of the United States.
which may be considered as competing
with Greg's history for a place in South
ern schools. Sundays Dispatch contains
a letter replying to "Uplands' from
Professor Dabney, Of the University Of
Virginia. in which the Professor speaks
OF "Uplands' letter as "a review, which
Is the merest caricature" The Professor
also says Of his statements: "These asser-
tons are so utterly and so stupidity false
that one is almost tempted to believe that
Cplands' is a Yankee. who IS writing
under the thought that at last the South
is set right before the world"
We have. then. these three i'm
pouant statements: First. that the
allegations Of the letter are ut
tery false; second, that their au-
thor is the writer and promoter Of a rival
publication. and third. that he is a min
lister Of the Gospel. These three state
ments taken together constitute one Of
the most astounding statements that has
been made in recent times. Can all Of
them possibly be true?

A BTG PAPER.
The Sunday Edition of The Times Was n
Grand Success.

The Times issue Of a twenty-four-page
paper on Sunday morning was duly appre-
ciated by the many thousand readers
who daily gather their information OF
current events from the columns OF Inc
Times. An issue OF a twenty iOur-paSe
naper' bv a Richmond company means
more than glance at the contents shows;
IL means an advance In journalism here
that stands out in bold contrast with
any previous newspaper record in Rich
mond and compares favorably with the
best efforts of the papers OF cities IKE
Washington. Baltimore, Atlanta and even
Philadelphia.
II means that The Times has a full
corps of writer's and news gatherers, ana
the latest mechanical devices, and is
capable OF giving its readers a paper
metropolitan in makeup ana Thoroughly
newsy, interesting and clean In character.
1t means that The Times intends 10
push forward TO the front and give the
citizens OF Virginia paper that will be to
them what the Baltimore sun is to Mary
landers. the Atlanta Constitution To Geor-
gians or the Philadelphia Ledger to Penn
sylvanians.
In issuing this edition there was CO.
operation between each d partment that
might be called enthusiasm, and even 10
one familiar with the details OF news
paper Office there was presentation OF
work that was full of interest and STUDY
10 see how nicely the operators OF each
department dove-tailed with the other.
Sheet after sheet OF typewriter tele-
graphers matter took its place on the
foreman's desk, besides piles Of yellow
specials sent by correspondents. Local
news lay near editorials. Facts about
horses were next TO dreams OF Donnets
and wraps Advertisements Of holiday
goods" were near sermons and theatrl-
Gals.
And from this seeming chaos order was
rescued. the type was set upon the ma
chimes the proofs read. and all was at
last in the form and the merry hum OF
the press begun,
Even with the large paper with It's
many columns ready to receive all kinds
Of matter. The Times on Sunday was not
large enough to accommodate the de-
mands made upon it, and when the last
column had closed over eight columns
Of matter stood on galleys awaiting
place in the paper.
But Richmonds citizens appreciated
The Times efforts, and when / asked
couple' Of scores Of citizens yesterday
what they thought Of the paper their
nraise was without stint Of The Times
enterprise. Some Of the best men in
Richmond declared that Richmond should
be proud of The Times. and that In the
issue OF Sunday they saw rapid strides
10 a kind Of journalism not seen IN Rlch-
mond twelve months ago.
The Times had as much advertising IN
IL Sunday as did the Philadelphia Times
Of the same day.

TIE STATES FINANCES.

The report OF the condition of the States
finances for the past fiscal year, just
made by Treasurer Hartman. is just
gratifying. The State can easily pay all
present demands upon her Treasury. in
GLIDING interest upon her debt under the
recent settlement and have a very good
surplus The increase of revenue over
that OF the preceding year is very strik-
ing. and large part of this increase may
fairly be put down to the fact that the
state settled and adjusted her differences
with her creditors, and thereby paved the
way TO order and quiet where unrest and
disturbances had previously reigned. The
greatest curse that Virginia has ever
known was William Malone. and the
evils that he brought with him under
his misleading shibboleth. "Readiust
ment." The most blessed day that has
eyer come 10 her was that when a settle
rnent OF her public debt laid him and all
his Infamous sohemers In political
grave. and secured future peace and pros
perity 10 her as a perpetual monument
Of his sheme and disgrace
