There are communities of sturdy New
England people where the general rule
that religious services languish in the
absence of a pastor does not hold. In
North Warren weekly prayer meetings
have been held for over seventy years
uninterruptedly. and this without the
help of a minister, except for an occa.
sional lecture. At first the meetings
were held at private dwellings. but for
over thirty years the people have met al
a schoolhouse. -Rockland (Me.) Tribune

JUDGE BIsHOP W. PERKINS, who has
been appointed United States senator to
succeed the late Preston b. PLUME. is
no stranger to the duties of a national
legislator. He has served four terms in the
lower house Of congress and made a
most creditahle record there as a careful
industrious and conscientious represen-
tatlVe. lie was renOminated by acclama-
ton in 1890, but went down with otbc-
good men before the alliance cyclone.
The Judge Is a man Of strong convictions
and great force of character. There is
nothing Of the demagogue or political
trimmer about him, and the republicans
Of Kansas will have no reason TO blush
at any position he may take upon the
floor OF the senate. He will stand bv his
colors and principles unswerved by
clamor, If he may be judged by his record
in the house. He is not so brilliant as
INGALLS,, and he is not so ~erratic. He is
not so well known or pugnacious as
PLUMB, but he is more tolerant, more
polished and more careful in his utter
ances. GOVERNOR Humphrey is to be
congratulated upon his happy solution of
the problem which the sudden death of
SENATOR PLUMB forced upon him.

4 NEW CITY'S RECORD.
THE OLD AND THE NEW YEAR IN
THRIVING NEWPORT NEWS.
what the Harvest Has Been and "ha'
1t Will Be-Progress and
Prosperity.

4 message to the Richmond Dispatch
saws: At this season of summarizing the
past of cities and taking a peep into
their future Newport News can well
claim to deserve more than passing
notice.
The year of 1891 shows a record OF
which not only our W people, but
the rest of the state have a right to be
proud. Although it is a recognized fact
that most of the new towns of the state
suffered depression during the year, this
city by the sea certainly has no reason
to complain.

TIE interstate commerce commission
has struck what appears or its face to he
a hard blow at the free pass system. 1t is
not as effective as it looks, however, and
will be far more useful to the railway
companies as an excuse for refusing
passes than to the principle it is presumed
to attack. A railway company opera
ting through two or more states will be
obliged to issue as many passes as states
where ii is deemed desirble to favor an
applicant. Where the c~ompany's repre-
sentative sees nothing to be gained by
granting a request for a pass extending
beyond a state line he can simply fall
back upon the interstate law
with the usual regrets.

WHAT WILL THE HARVEST BE?

What will the harvest be-the harvest
of 1892? Newport News enters the year
| with a splendid balance to her credit on
the book Of progress. Judging the future
by the past, judging 1892 by 1891, there
is a splendid year before her. AS | have
frequently stated the demand for houses
here is far in excess and must continue
for a long time in excess of the supply.
This necessitates tremendous activity in
building, the employment OF a large num-
Der of masOns, carpenters and others, and
the distribution of a vast amoun Of
money to the retail trade. The getting
under way Of the great transat-
lantic steamship fleet connecting New
port News with the principal cities of
Europe means the working of the ship
yards to their full capacity, a consequent
increase Of skilled mechanics, the estab-
lishment of minor industries to give en-
ployment to the families of these me-
chanics, and a necessity for residences
far beyond the capacity Of the four hun
dred and seventy-odd lots taken up by
the two ~syndicates.
The deduction therefOreis obvious that
not only must these s~yndicates realize
largely On their investment by the rental
of their houses, but there must be a most
decided advance in the prices of all lots
contiguous to their property, which is
located in one of the most beautiful and
available annexes of Newport News.
What the harvest Will be for those who
have already invested here, what it will
be for the place as a city, and what for
those who may invest before the ~inevita-
bic big jump in values comes cannot be
obscure to men Of any business sagacity.

WHAT WAS THE HARVEST?

What was the harvest? During the
year the tonnage of the Chesapeake and
Ohio railway largely increased, and
there was in consequence a decided ea-
p~ansion in the shipping interest The
mercantile business of the city made sub
stantial advances, the mammoth ship
building plant was kept busy, the minor
industries more than held their own,
and building progressed steadily. To
the population there was appreciate
addition, a marked dispersion was shown
to beautify the interior of houses already
built, and the general social conditions
were such as to demonstrate that the
population were thoroughly content
and were looking to permanent resi-
dence. Last, but not least, real estate
values were maintained, and right on
the heel Of the new year two large syn
dicates-one composed mostly Of Rich
mond capitalists and the other of Dur
ham, n. c., capitalists-purchased
block Of lots, with a commencing of
building operations on an extensive
scale in the immediate future. This lat.
ter fact even the most skeptical cannot
fail to admit exhibits a confidence in
the future of Newport News that few
places can claim to have inspired, and
which is we'll worthy of the attention Of
investors everywhere.

time honored British flag from it's staff,

"Erin go Bragh." The situation was then

gathering strength from eager bands of in
habitants, who hastened to offer support.
But If Gen. Humbert and his valiant
grenadiers, ambitious to flaunt the banner
OF liberty and equality under the very
throne of the Georges while their brilliant
countryman, Napoleon, carried it with
more than patriot zeal in search of con-
quest in the English realms Of the orient,
had affected surprise on the coast of Ire
land within striking distance of the seat of
power, the British lion was not doing.
The insurrection was no new thing, nor
French sympathy and cooperation a sur
prise. Three times within two wears the
hearts Of the insurgents had been kindled
and their opponents depressed by the out
fitting of formidable expeditions by the
French directory to invade Ireland. Three
times had Irish hopes been blasted, three
times English tremors relieved by the in
of fate, and when Humbert
landed at Killala not less than 10000 reg
ulars and militia stood ready to throttle
aspirations for freedom on the soil of Erin
at the tap of the tyrant's drum. The head
quarters Of one English division was at
Galway, fifty or sixty miles south Of Kill
asia and on the day following Humbert's

appearance, the 2Sd of August, the COM
mander, Gen. Hutchinson, set an army in
motion northward. The next day, Aug.
"a, the chief general in Ireland, Lord Corn
wallis. put in motion another army on the
east between the invader and Dublin
Meanwhile Humbert did not sit down
and enjoy his cheap success. His task was
not alone difficult, it was bordering upon
the impossible, not to say the Quixotic.
He had brought in his three ships but l 100
soldiers-the rest were to come from the
insurgent ranks Over 200 men were left
at Killala as guards and garrison, and
with about 800 French and 1000 or more
native auxiliaries Humbert took up the
march toward Castlebar, the capital OF
Mayo, on Aug "a, routing the garrison at
Ballina on the way by an intrepid bayonet
charge led by his favorite subordinate, Gen.
Sarrazin. At Ballina further accessions of
recruits swelled the ranks, although Hum
bert's stern discipline chilled the ardor Of
many a would be revolutionist. Plumber
and reprisal were vigorously repressed, and
the suave Frenchman cOnciliated both
Catholic and Protestant by stern, impartial
rulings in the disputes between adherents
of the orange and the green. On the Goth
the little army started for Castlebar, with
the certain knowledge that large body of
English awaited it. After severe march
over mountain and bog, part of the way
countermarch to deceive the enemy, n
British outpost was fired upon at dawn on
the 27th and sent scampering back to
Castlebar with the news.
On the eve of battle Gen. Hutchinson
was succeeded by his superior, Gen. Lake,
an imperious and hardheaded commander,
and about daylight Lake stood ready with
5000 men and eighteen cannon to sweep
the sansculottes and their rebel allies, the
''croppies," off the earth. So certain was
Lake that such would be the upshot that
he refused to make plan of battle, and
proposed to finish the business with a
favorite body of his light horse known as
Fox Hunters" AS usual after dead
sure thing has been put to proof, there was
a list of might-have-beens to think over
anent the battle of Castlebar. Lake chose
his ground-a crest commanding an ele-
walton oyer which Humbert must pass,
and formed three lines, with artillery in
the center, and with a cavalry reserve to
wipe up the fragments at the close Of the
melee.
The British array was, in fact, so for
midable that Humbert and his staff gave
it up at the outset, and the daring leader
decided to fight solely for honor's sake.
Moreover, he would begin at once, which
