Revolution" by Miss N. y. Winston.
This IL the life story OF the little
Portuguese waif who was landed at City
Point by an English vessel about 176S.
and who grew to be a man OF giant size
and strength and prodigious valor, distin-
guished alike for his courage and amia-
bIlity, who won renown in the Revolution.
and afterwards became Scrgeant-at-Arms
of the Virginia House OF Delegates. and
who. dying in 1892. lies buried beside other
WORTHLESS in Shockoe cemetery. In this

Such a publication as this has long been
wanted, and Il comes from Miss Winston's
hand In good style and with valuable ma
terial. The price is Is cents per copy.
Some Of the grandchildren and great
grandchildren of Peter Francisco reside
In this city. and Of their Revolutionary
ancestor they have much reason TO be
proud.

uhristmas R-strospective

For "a quiet Christmas rs the saying
| r., yesterday was a very noisy one. The
horn-blowers made deafness, where 1t ex-
; listed, a happiness for the time being:
but people of acute aural perception re-
port a little abatement Of the nuisance
compared with their experiences at former
| Christmases. In time-when some supe-
rior noise-producer is lnvented-youth will
weary OF tin-horns. But the walls OF
Jericho went down under much less pres
sure than Richmond had Saturday night
and last night. from which we conclude
that the masonry Of to-day Is better than
was that of old.
The weather was out OF joint. Instead
OF snow and ice we had spring-time tenn
perature. People by the thousand sat on
their porches or sauntered upon Abe
streets or into the parks. That IL, they
did in the morning. In the evenipg-after
the Christmas dinner was eaten-most
persons lost the power of locomotion.
Despite hard times our people treated
There was a vast sum OF money spent
here for Christmas presents, provisions.
&C. The weather was so fine that TO stay
of the streets was difficult, and to go
on the streets was to fall prey to the
attractions of the shops. thus 1t came
| about that almost the usual amount OF
money was spent. And never before. we
believe, at any Christmas were the Rich
| mond poor 80 well looked after. IL any
| of them suffered, 1t was because they con-
cealed their poverty. Such persons there
| are here no doubt. They are the greatest
! sufferers from hard times. The man or
woman who Will speak out Is rarely al
| lowed to 20 unprovided with food. or fuel,
| or clothing.
The intense devotion Of our people 10
| Christmas leaves but little room in their
| hearts for the observation of New-Years
Day as a day Of festivity. It Is a holiday;
but not a day OF merry-making or gene
| raj sociabillty.
For a few years New-Year's receptions
| and calls were very popular. but they
met the fate Of nearly all exotics. and
are now but little INDUCED in. This New
Years Day we shall have the evening
reception of the new Governor as the
great feature. and there all our beauties
and beaux are expected to show them
selves that they may see others and be
themselves seen.
q 1t Ii well for us 10 make most OF the
holiday season. The portent OF the times
is that the business world will be sorely
taxed and strained for some months be-
fore prosperity fully returns. Most OF
us will. therefore. need all of our brain
and Drawn for the struggle, so let us
now make an %ingathering against the
tlme when the output will be necessary.

In the last issue OF the Dispatch a cor
respondent in good faith says of the cur
rency which one of the new State-banh
systems IL expected TO put out that II
will afford "a safe circulating medium
which. can instantly be converted into
United states money when one chooses
TO go beyond the boundaries Of Virginia
or use his money beyond the confines of
the Commonwealth"
We think the people will prefer 10
take United States money In the first
place. But II State-bank notes shall
be convertible without cost into United
States money! why should they be thus
converted at all? Why not, as with our
present greenbacks and n~ational-bank
notes, use them anywhere, In Virginia or
Oregon, Maine or Texas? The answer is
not far to seek. Under the operation OF
Gresham's law. the local currency will
drive out the national currency-the bad
currency will drive out the good-and
when a man shall prepare 10 60 to Cali
fornia he will have TO sell his local cur
rency at a discount In order to get cur
renoy that will circulate at par In that
far-off State. Our correspondent merits
praise for his candor.
