Newport News's Foreign Trade.

The Manufacturers Record, Of Balti-
more says that the growth OF the South's
foreign trade Is one Of the most striking
features OF the business interests Of the
country. 1.-THE business men Of the West
have walked up to the importance of
shipments through Southern ports, and
the whole tendency Of western and south
western commerce is now in this direc-
ton"
The increase Of foreign shipments from
southern ports for the 8 months proceed
ing February 1, 1894, compared with the
like period ending February I. 1888, as
shown by the official figures. was s27,3Oo00o,
while the total increase from the entire
country was $52OO0,O0O "more than one
half OF the whole gain from ports
having been from the South Compar-
ing these figures, Baltimore shows a gain
of nearly ss,OOo.coO; Charleston, $3,5OoooO;
New Orleans, ss,7OO,0oS; Newport News,
$4,000; Norfolk, $4,000; Richmond
| sl.sW,Ooo and Savannah. $4,000. The
| Record adds that the Largest percentage
| of gain Of any of these leading ports was
at Newport News. which now takes rank
as one Of the South's most important ex-
porting points"
| so 1t does. Newport News has bril-
| liant future before it. 1t steadily grows
in Importance despite the dull times that
have fallen upon the land. 1t is certain
to become a large city.

The Sun and the Dispatch,

Senator Hill asks the Democratic party
to stand by him in opposition to the
income tax.-Richmond Dispatch.
Senator Hill makes no such request
AT all He urges the Democratic party
OF which he is an ardent and unfail-
ing member, to stand by itself, to stand
fast In defence OF its own principles
and integrity which are now imperiled
by its insidous and insatiate enemies.
Let our esteemed southern contempo-
rary help hold the fort with all the
earnestness of its hereditary devotion to
the cause.-New York Sun.
Even our brilliant New York con-
temporary would fail IL 1t should at
tempt to draw line of distinction be-
tween what we and 1t say in the two
paragraphs above quoted. The Sun
fails to notice our averment that the
tax levied to pay pensions is ten times
as odious and unjust as an income tax
would be, besides being deplorably sec'
tional and an example of the worst
kind of absenteeism. 1t Is levied upon
the people of the whole country but
expended wholly in the North. the ex'
ceptions being too few to be worth
noting.

Legal Tender Everywhere.

Let us not forget Mr.. Balfour's recent
declaration to the people Of England
nay. to the people Of the world-touching
an international currency. Here II is:
ut appears to me to be a mere relic
Of barbarism, mere survival from the
Middle Ages, that that which is legal ten
der in one country should not also be
legal tender In any other country"
Every step that We take in denational-
izing our currency will tend to food the
world with notes constituting legal tender
nowhere except In towns, villages. and
hamlets OF the country OF their issue. To
denationalize our present currency will be
to prevent, as far as Standardization can
accomplish that object, the desideratum
Of an international currency, or. as Mr.,
Bslfour suggests, an international legal.

NicaraQua-Hawaii.

The projected Nicaragua canal may Dc
said TO be on the line OF a direct route
from New York to Hawaii. We are SO
accustomed to associating Hawaii with
San Francisco that we involuntarily do
so whenever we are tod that the Nicara-
qua canal and the acquisition OF Hawaii
are kindred projects. But the people OF
the United States must not allow them
selves to be led away from the facts;
for II these be on the side OF annexation,
the event will be acquisition.
In the last issue Of the Dispatch We
stated that Mr.. Morgan. of Alabama,
had reported to the Senate from the Com
mittee on Foreign Relations q bill In
tended TO be a substitute for the Mica
ragua-canal bill heretofore introduced by
him. The substitute contemplatss full CO.

CLEVELAND, o., April l5-Speedy JUS
tice was metcd out to a cOlored iiend AT
KushsylVania, a small place near Belle
fontane, tonight. The wretch was Sey-
mOur Ncwland and his Victim Mrs. Jane
Knowles. n respectable white woman, She
was terribly injured by the fiend. When
alone in her house Newland entered and
assaulted her. He left her IN a pitiahle
condition. After he had gone she dragged
herself TO a neighbours house and aroused
the inmates The news of the assault
travelled like wildilre. and In a short time
nearly the entire populace OF the village
was acquainted with the story, and search
for Newland was begun.
The mob caught Newand n few miles
from town, and messengers were at once
dispatched for a rope To hang him with.
Then. with wild yels, the mob dragged
him over the ground to a small cotton
wood tree some distance away, one end
was thrown over limb. and the wretch
was raised by the neck until he stood
erect.
a jury was drawn and a mock trial
commenced, but II was abruptly termina-
ted. as the mob was too impatient to
wait The doomed negro kept up an in
ccssant groaning and appeal for mercy.
and was only stopped when, with a sud-
den jerk. he was sent skyward. There he
was held until dead. Newand was an
ex-conyct and had once before been
found guilty of rape. Mrs. Knowles.
Newland's victim, is In a critical condi-
ton and not expected TO live.
