Tho Iarnae-River Country.

The DISPATCH is unusually rich to-day
in historical "reminiscences. and two of our
articles refer to the ever-to- be-cherished
James-river country.
One Of these gives some account OF
Curle's Neck. Claremont. and jamestown
Island. which were in olden times
the property of the famous Major VIII
LIAM {" BUcK") ALLEN, and all OF which
are associated with the earliest permanent
settlements made on this continent by the
English-speaklng people.
Another article gives some account OF
Hog Island-not that one which has been
honored by the visit there of Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND, nor that which caused the conten-
ton between the Virginia and Maryland
oystermen, but that one III the James river
near which Lord DELAwARE's incoming
feet met and turned back the staryed-out
Virginia colonsts, who, in their hunger and
distress. had started to abandon the coun-
try. This spot Is no longer an island"
but is connected with the main land and
has been ditchei and dyked and otherwise
improved until it Is unquestionably one OF
the most valuable farms in Virginia.
The James III its course from the head of
tide at Richmond flows with many mean
ders by lovely hOmesteads and rich fields
and thriving towns to the sea, and en- route
thither the traveller passes through land
rich in treasures of nature as we'll as in
song and story; land whore the founda-
ton stones of the United States were laid;
htpo
years seems now about to enter upon a
new era Of prosperity.
Richmond Is already big and bustling
city, aud Newport News is destined to be,
and the hundred-miie stretch of country
between the two must grow in value with
the growth of population at Richmond
and Manchester and at Newport News and
Hampton.
This view has already moved wealthy
capitalists to arrange to put daily line of
fast, steel-built steamers on the river be-
/ tween Richmond. Newport News, and Nor
folk; while it has doubtless encouraged
the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Compa-
ny ia it's resolution, now about to be exc
cuted, 10 have a great feet of ships TO sail
between Newport News and Liverpool.
Richmond has recently received many
stimulants to progress, and she will enter
upon the new year with the promise of un-
precedented growth in population and
business. Newport News has become q
great railway terminus, port, and ship
building town, and her population is
rapidly increasing. SO, what is to hinder
the Jsmes-riyer country from receiving a
new life?

rency can accomplish by all their Efforts

but this charge is not true. We wouid NOT

the United States out of the wilderness OF
competing currency schemes IN winch
they have been wandering for years past
But with the southern members OF Con-
rress favoring q new system OF banking
and the substitution OF a local, domestic,
demonstrating currency, and the northerh'
western, and eastern members opposing all
such schemes. it would be exceedingly un-
wise for an extra session of Congress I be
held next spring. The result of such
session would be discussions innumerable
in the Democratic party. Not only would
these dissensions divide that party into
mere factions, but they would render IL
next TO impossible for the Democrats to
agree upon q tariff acceptable to the peo-
ple. or. in fact. upon any of the measures
which are expected to result from the cleo
ton of Mr.. CLEVELAND TO be President az
the United States. Why not do at tde
regular session Just about TO begin what
ever IS expected to be done at an extra ses-
sion:
Stirring times are just ahead of us. The
Democrats have been rendered bold by
success, and the Republicans have been
rendered bold by defeat. There will,
therefore, be no mincing of matters IN the
discussions which will take place in the
two houses of Congress this winter. EX-
ceeding peace" made ABoU BEN ADHEM
bold. Exceeding belligerency caused by
pon-success will make the Republicans
bold. And the Democrats cannot but be
bold with such an immense majority as
they have in the House of Representa-
tives.

The Tariff ON Sugar.

We publish this morning on page a
letter on free sugar from l.. II. b. He is a
man OF logical mind. He seems us to be
IN favor OF the single-tax scheme OF HENRY
GEORGE. which he comes very near charging
upon us as one of our sins. If /. II. Il. were
a politician, the people would keep HIM in
tine right track on the question of taxing
sugar. Republican Congress abolished
the duty on sugar. ADemocrati, Con-
eress will certainly not restore IL. SO We
need not consume much time in discuss
ing the question OF its justice. But we
must say that 1t appears to US to be plain
that tax is necessarily unjust which
Is levied upon rich and poor. not in
proportion 10 wealth, but In pro-
portion to poverty--thst ls, IN proportion
to the number of the family, or. in other
words, in proportion 10 consumption. "

Tho Time of Meeting Of Congress.

The Washington Pos of yesterday says !:
ain It's suggestion that the date Of the frst
meeting Of Congress In regular session be
changed from December 20 March the Post
Deems 70 have sounded the key -noto 10 a yigor-
pus movement IN this direction"
But have you thought that the Presi-
dent will have TO come into Office before
Congress? The electors Of President and
Vice-President meet in their respective
States on the first Wednesday in January.
When are their votes TO be counted by
CongresSl The Post will hear of more OBJ
secuons TO its proposition than we care to
name here and now.
But the fact is that il is not wrong for
one Congress to beginits first session nine
months after another expires. Whenever
the condition of the country demands II
m extra session may be called by the
President of the United States. If such a
condition shall not obtain then there will
De no necessity for an extra session. The

Do We Want Cheaper Gas I?

After the lapse of week we have heard
of no one seconding the suggestion of Mr..
BEyERIDGE that it is useless to reduce the
price of gas, because (as he contends).a
deduction in pnce per 900 cubic feet does
not lower the aggregate bill. On the con-
trary. all persons with whom we have
talked wish the City Council to come down
with the price. Consumers now pay S1.25
per 1000 feet. Many other cities only
charge consumers 81. And one dollar is
enough for Kichmonders to pay. With that
reduction made we could get as much
Gas for 81 as we now get for IS. Or. If one
is content to make a monthly outlay OF 80,
be can get 900 feet of gas for that sum.
where now he gets but 1900,
Richmond Will never have cheaper gas
until she adopts modern methods of man
ufacture. Our coal-gas plant is not use
less, by any means, but it is insufficient.
Aided by water.gas plant, which will cost
S25, 600, il will be all right. Then the two
gases can be mixed in the gas-holder, and
we shall have gas of greater illuminating
power, and the economy of manufacture
VIII allow lUe tltF ODuuCll 10 ItuuSo tho
price from SIPS TO 81 certainly; maybe to
q figure lower than 81.
The Board of Aldermen has voted 10
appropriate the $4,000. Tomorrow eve
ming the Common Council will say whether
1t will concur or non-concur IN the boards
aotion. If it concurs Richmond will get
better and cheaper gas. If it does not. we
shall have to go along paying Si.25 per
thousand for an article which is not as good
As that which we should get at 81.
As to whether water and coal-gas can
be commingled, as proposed, and used
without detriment to the public health,
the experience of numerous other cities
affords us the best evidence. On this point
we take 1t that Superintendent ADAMS Is
full-handed with testimony. especially as
IT is known that the opponents OF the APP
preparation will insist that water-gas Is
more poisonous than coal-gas. That was the
DIsPATcH's opinion years ago. but know
ledge OF the experience of other cities he's
compelled US TO reverse our judgment,

FLAGS of Georgia and Virginia.


Some semi-malcious persons have ques-
toned the loyalty Of the Georgians be-
cause their state flag. instead OF tho ma
tional flag. is foated over their state Capi-
toll.
No flag is fioated over the Virginia Capt.
,ol except upon public holidays or TO
commemorate some special event, or
when the General Assembly IS IN session.
In the last instance flags are raised when
the two houses meet and are lowered
when they adjourn.
Al the north end of the Capitol, over
the hall of the House Of Delegates, the
Virginia flag is floated; at the south end,
over the Senate chamber, the stars and
Stripes are foated.
This Is the ancient usage, which, how
ever. suffered four years. lapse, when the
stars and Bars of the Confederate States
vere hoisted in place of lthe Stars and
Stripes oEthe United States. During those
days the Confederate Congress, as well "a
the Virginia General Assembly, sat in the
Capitol here.
We see no reason why Georgia should
alter any OF her customs TO accommodate
loyalist.cranks, but should she desire to
make new arrangement. we recommend
to her the adoption of the Virginia sys-
TEN.
Our system has this advantage at least,
that when the people OF Richmond and
surrounding country see the flags floating
over the Capitol they know that some
things up"

The Rattle Of Life.

Always a ferce-often an apparently
hopeless-struggle Is that which we are
daily waging ourselves and see going on
around us on every hand. We should be
guarded and strengthened by the triple
armor Of health, hope, and energy, to be
successful. Many brave warrior on the
high road to victory has been stricken
down by disease. his accumulated means
exhausted in vain efforts TO recover
health; his wife and little ones deprived
of their protector and supporter, left PEN
niless at his death. He feels life waning.
gradually slipping from his grasp, and
with the dread consciousness and the ap-
palling knowledge that his dear ones
must face approaching penury, he must
meet the King of Terrors. A sad picture,
but one not overdrawn in the slightest.
Yet there Is help for him If be but knew
il. Scott's Emulsion Of Cod-Liyer OIL
with the Hypophosphites of Lime and
Soda will restore his waning strength,
renew his wasted flesh, check the malady
that is consuming hun, if it be one within
the scope of this medicine of many uses.
IL is a food-it is a tonic--it is an eradl-
Gator of scrofula and che seeds of con-
sumption. It has won the high regard of
physicians not only by the signal results it
accomplishes in cases of chronic disease,
but also by it's psatable qualities. 1t Is in
fact medicine of the highest rank and Is
80 esteemed.
