In ORDER to increase the number of
pensioners and consequently the repub-
can vote at the coming Presidential
election, the Secretary of War has de-
cided that certain discharges from the
army, while not honorable" were not
.'dishononble." In other words, the
cause of the discharge was neither right
nor wrong. How this could be is a
question which only such casuist as
Mr.. Elkins can tell.

ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA.
WEDNESDAY EVENING, MAY IS.
THE DEMOCRATS of the State will as

THE DEMOCRATS of the State will as
semble in convention tomorrow to
elect their delegates to the national
democratic convention. Under exist
inc circumstances the action Of the con-
vcntion will be comparatively unim-
portant, as, unfortunately is the case,
Virginia and all the other southern
States can not now, as in the earlier
and better days of the country, insist
upon the nomination of their favorite,
but must, in order that their party may
succeed, and to escape the Force bill,
accept the man selected by the demo
cratic States of the North. All the
same. however, it is hoped, for the
credit of the Virginia democracy, that
the convention may not be so foolish as
to send an instructed delegation to Chi
cago, or to elect delegates i'll favor OF
an unavailable candidate, or to pass
resolutions that will tend to increase
the number of those who doubt the Wis
dom of entrusting the control OF the
country to the democratic party.

ACCORDING TO reports from Wash
ington the democratic majority in the
U. S. House of Representatives will
take no notice of the specific charges
preferred against the American minis
ter and consul in Chilli, for the reason
that such charges arc matters for the
consideration of the republican State
Department. No wonder doubt is eX-
pressed by some democrats of the sue
cess of their party next fall. Why, q
resolution was introduced in the House
fur months ago, calling for the CHILEAN
correspondence, which, if adopted,
would have shown that Mr.. Harrison
knew Chill had agreed to apologize be-
fore he sent his bullying message to
Congress; but that resolution was
pigeon-holcd, lest its adoption might
embarrass the administration" Well,
a certain class of people must be allow
ed TO gang their ain gait, and to others
laugh at them.

Mr.. LODGE. the putative father of
the Force bill, has introduced Il bill III
Congress directing the Secretary of
War to prepare series ofmaps, "show-
ing the location of all the principal en-
gagemcnts on land and sea during the
war of the rebellion, for the free use of
the free schools in all parts of the coun-
try. The South has no special objec-
ton to such maps, as they would only
make more patent the fact that in
most of the battles in the war between
the States, the South was victorious;
but there is no more constitutional
right for the government to print maps
for free schools. than for it to provide
books for such schools, or food, cloth
ing and shelter for the pupils thereof.
