REV. DR.. LAFFERTY, in the Rich
mond Christian Adroeate, abiding to
the educational advantages conferred
npon the negroes of the South, says
s'The statesmen among us robbed the
ex-soldier of Lee to educate black COM
petitors of his children. Then northern
millionaires, in hatred of the paroled
citizens, have endowed colleges of tools
aud machines to equip the ex-slave to
surpass and subjugate the sons of the
Confederate veteran in the struggle for
the best pay and position in the skilled
trades But what do the Statesmen"
referred to care for all this (? Such
statesmen look out for the immediate
promotion of their own interests, not
for the welfare of the people of their
States

IN THESE days of wind and light
weights, Virginia has suffered no little
loss by the death of Major Sutherlin
who was one of her few remaining pub
lie men whose natural common sense
had enabled him to appropriate the add
vantages of practice and experience.
He was man of affairs, and knew how
the interests of his State could be best
subserved, and was willing to exert all
his efforts to promote them. The State
has not lost all of such men, but she
should hasten to avail herself of the
wisdom of the few who are left, by Sc
lecting one of them for her Governor.

Five years ago the Empress OF Austria
did not know word Of modern Greek;
to-day she speaks it fluent!y, writes Il
correctly. is familiar with every folk
song, poem, ana novel in the language,
and has composed original matter in the
Greek and translated three Of Shakes
peare's plays into the language. These
results seem the more remarkable when
it is remembered that the Empress is
past middle age, is weighed down with
great sorrow, and has no spur for &C
opisition save her own interest in the
language and her strong sympathy with
the Greek people. This royal pupil is
constantly under tutor, never misses
her daily lessons, reads almest 'nces-
sanity. and during her walks discusses
subjects in the Greek. The Arch
duchess Valerie, who was generally her
mothers companion. was able to under
stand the language after few months
simply by hearing it spoken.

SHAKY TIMES.

The silver lining to the financial
cloud that has been lowering over
this country for some time past doth
not vet appear On the contrary, the
cloud seems to be growing darker.
The business concerns that need TO
borrow money are being forced to the
wall from one end of the country to
the other, for those who have money
are keeping it very close to them.
The situation is really serious, and 1t
looks rs if it will grow worse before 1t
grows better.
\ record of Tuesdays bank failures
will show how grave the trouble IS.
In Denver, Colorado, three national
banks and one private bank were
obliged TO close their doors, and to
these may be added the failure OF
three private banking institutions on
the previous day in the same city; in
Kansas no less than nine State banks
suspended, besides one national bank;
the State bank at Ada, Ohio, and Il
bank at Anacortes, Wash, went up
the same day. In addition to these
many manufacturing establishments
and mercantile houses have been
forced to make assignments in various
sections of the country. In New
York on Tuesday stocks dropped to
unprecedentedly low figures, and
though there was no panic there was
a feeling of uneasiness that shows
there is danger ahead.
Where the difficulties will end is not
now apparent. In the meantime it
will be well to heed the advice ofCOn
gresham Raynor, who tells those
who are embarked in financial enter
prises to keep mighty close to shore
until the weather clears.
