OBITUARY..

The sad and uniinely death of Hermann
SCHMIDT will not only De keenly felt by his
bereayed family. but by host Of warm
friends 10 whom be had attached himself
as with hooks of steel. leaving behind him
memories tender and sweet 1t will ever be
their pride to cherish; ap heritage OF
which his family have Just cause 10 be
proud-tbat OF uuimpeachaole integrity.
In his social circle he was always promI-
nent. ever cheerful and ready TO advance
the pleasure and happiness OF all in whom
he felt an interest modest. unost.rts-
tious. but true 10 all the relations Of he,
giving 10 every cause OF mert with q
generous hand, and never turning a deaf
ear 20 those in distress.
When almost within the thross OF death
and suffering untold agony his last
thoughts were OF his family and their fu-
ture. Summoning each one around his
bsds,de he babe them ION hands from the
Youngest 10 the oldest and as they formed
an unbroken chain ne entreated them so
20 live. until each link should be severed
BIZ a higher Power-a touching and beau
tiful sentiment as well Is a lesson never 10
be forgotten by them or his surviving
trends.
Since 1866. when be became al adopted
citizen Of Richmond. he has been promi-
nentlv identified with Its varied interests.
aud Dy his indomitable will and energy he
has pressed TO the front -ank OF the most
progressive, leaving monuments OF his
zeal and labor IN the enterprises be estab-
iished and fOstered. and by which the puo-
lie as well have been benefited. The loss Of
sucn . citizen is a calamity in any COM
munitT. yet we trust, es ne believe, their

Remedy for Hard Lines.

To The Editor Of TIE DisDd'ch:
When times are hard and money scarce
there is an instructive disposition 10 make
II an excuse 10 put of paying little bills.
and dislike. on the part Of most people.
to pay part of a bill. II everybody IN
Richmond would from public spirit. and
also from self-interest. pursue the opposite
course and pay out on their bills every
bit they possibly can. II would not only
make money perfectly EASY here what
ever the state of affairs elsewhere. but
also help each individual 10 get his bills
paid.
Many years ago, during the halcyon DAYS
of Virginia. a man went 20 court IN one OF
the SouthsIde counties with $40 bill. As
soon as be arrived on the ground he paid u
on bill ne owed. The person receiving
il happened 20 owe another bystander. and
he another. so that the same bill paid $50
IN one minute. This created an interest
IN the matter and they began 20 watch the
career OF the bill. and before night the one
bill had settled over 500 worth of indebs
edness which would otherwise have re-
NAMED unsettled.
There IL more than ten times as much
money IL Richmond outside Of the banks
and available for use as would be required
10 pay up 81 the curren. bills the people
owe and make times perfectly flush.
Let US do this and urge II upon others.
and few will have % paw bank discount
for money for current expenses because
they cannot collect. E1PEEIESCE.

MADE Rich BY A WEED.
Farmers Of south Australia Find Laven-
der Growing wild.


A promising industry has been started
in South Australia in somewhat curious
way. The Central Agricultural Bureau Of
South Australia was recently notified that
a weed of very pronounced odor and
aggressive growth had taken possession of
about three acres Of soil in the south
ern portion of the colony.
The settlers IN tho neighborhoOd of the
swamp where the plant had established
itself were inclined TO look with distinct
disiavor upon TN weed" which the
horses and cattle would not eat. and
which spread so rapidly. 1t was presently
found. however. that the weed Yves no
other than the lavender plant. winch
though of no use "a fodder WAC other
wise most profitable crop. as two or
three tons of green stuff taken from II will
yield when distilled by very simple
process 500 worth of lavender oil.
In addition il would give 1000
pounds OF lavender water, worth
lf cents per pound. after the first distllla-
ton. and SO cents per pound after further
dlstillation. The settler. who was shrewd
enough 10 make inquiries before roofing
up his unknown crop, has decided ON the
advice of the Agricultural Bureau. not
only 10 carefully cultivate what lavender
ne has. but 20 plant several acres more.
The soil. OF light. sandy nature. with clay
beneath and fairly moist, is eminently
suited 10 the growth, not only Of laven-
der. but OF all scent-producing plants.
and many Of the colonIsts are proposing
10 devote part Of their land to such Guilt

General Slaughter claimed moreover
that when the fighting was all done every
command but his had surrendered. and
he bad no superior officer aud no govern

absolute monarch. lord of all be

smith bad surrendered on May 25. 1865.
but his situation was such that there
was no one to whom 10 surrender: and.
besides. no had on hand large body Of
Federal prisoners. the number being equal
to his own force. The locality and the
circumstances forbade disbaudment. and
so he held his force together for week or
more until opportunity offered for laying
down his arms at Brownsville. Tex. At
that time be issued the following order:
Soldiers, the war is over. Go home

have soldiers. And do more. hope that
the result will prove that our enemies
