French Anti-Aparchy Bill.

II would be difficult to conceive a more
urastic measure than the French anti
anarchy bill. yet II must be admitted that
The conditions which confront the gov
srnment call for extremes. The debates,
md the votes In the Chamber OF De-
puties on the bill have developed two
facts which would alone Justify the pro-
Eramme OF Casimlr-Perier and his asso-
riatcs One OF these is that the present
Is the golden opportunity OF the Con-
nrIn. harmonious. cohesive party for
law and order. such as France has not
had Cor years. The other is that the
keenest sympathy exists between French
socialism and militant anarchism.
Under these circumstances the govern
ment could not, even were II disposed so
TO do. modify its programme. Any exhibi-
ton OF weak ness or any compromise with
socialism, in this crisis would be fatal
not only TO Casiinir- Perier. but, perhaps,
10 the republic. II the republic IL to
live. anarchy must be extirpated. This
can only be accomplished by strong
hand. Should the new government fail TO
carry out the policy In respect to
anarchism to which II II pledged. ana
that evil become rcgnant. France. 1t is
believed ty many. would have no other
resort but TO turn to monarchism for sal
wetiop.

NV Sweetheart.

If gift OF brush or pen were mine,
on canvas grand, in stately line,
would her matchless charms portray
But idle now such vain essay,
And bold the aspiring OF my heart,
To win that affiuence Of art,
For such chef d'oeuvre a Shakespeare
muse
And Raphaels brush must needs refuse.
She is, aye. bright as cloudless day.
Her movements graceful as the swan,
Her words in lingering music lay.
The listening eal upon;
And gladdening as the roseate flush
or summer-morniIg skies,
Her winsome smile-her tell-tale blush,
Her deep and lustrous eyes.
Add TO the wealth OF woman's grace.
And beauty's mould OF form and face,
An intellect as clear as light,
A soul translucent in its white
And from that vision learn to know,
The type carry where I go
or woman's truth and woman's worth,
10 smooth the rugged ways OF earth.

eUNDAY. JULY 20, 1894.
Cleveland and Senate Tariff Bill.


We deplorc the Misunderstanding which
visits between the President and some
Of the members OF the two houses of
Congress 1t is unfortunate that II should
have occurred just ut time when a most
important subject OF legislation was about
10 be disposed OF. But surely there Is
good sense enough among so many honor
able gentlemen 10 see Just how the case
stands. Mr.. Cleveland has threatened no
veto. On the contrary, he wrote a pri-
vate letter TO Chairman Wilson. and both
gentleman kept 1t secret until Friday.
on which day Mr.. Wilson obtained per-
mission to publish 1t. and Mr.. Vest de-
clared that he had never seen nor heard
Of the letter until that day. We do not
regard II as absolutely certain that the
President would feel free to veto the
bill. after having used his influence
against II whilst 1t was in the halls Of
legislation. We suppose there is as much
danger that some members OF Congress
will DO "mulish," as that the President
will.
We have not allowed ourselves 70 be-
rome deeply interested in the Senate bill.
or the House bill. but have pleaded our
aesire for countervailing duties upon to-
bacco as a reason why we could not
pensure other good Democrats for de-
string protection TO be extended to coal.
fon-ore. sugar. &c, &c.
The Senate adjourned over Saturday.
That was a good sign. 1t gave the sena-
Tors an opportunity for non-offcial con-
ferences. Tho skies are not bright we
must admit. but they may become
brighter when the first excitement caused
by the Presidents letter shall have given
way TO the sway of reason. and the Presi-
Gent shall also have pondered ,the matter.

What tho South Fought For.

Those of our contemporaries who de-
sire to learn from genuine history what
the southern people fought for in the
war between the States will find some
valuable historical documents In speech
delivered a few days ago in the House
of Representatives by Mr.. Wheeler. Of
Alabama. He quotes some OF Horace
Greeley's declarations in favor of allow
ing the Southern States to withdraw
from the Union II they desired TO do
so. Also similar declarations from other
northern men OF prominence. Also. the
declaration OF General Scott. commander
of the United States army, that If the
Southern States persisted I'm their effort
to secede from the Union, he would say
to them, hayward sisters. depart in
peace" These are interesting utterances
just at this juncture.

m. Mama. ~ Streets In Richmond.

Richmond is bad OF In respect to pro-
viding information for strangers as to the
names of her streets
OF old II was the custom here Tor houses
on corner lots to bear signs giving the
names of the two streets. Later, when
eas-lamps had been put up at every cor
rer these names were inscribed upon
pieces of tin, which were placed In The
lamp. where they were visible day or
night. But the time has now come when
on our principal streets at least gas
lamps have been dismantled, and their
places supplied with electric lamps. The
electric-lamps, though they shed much
light on other subjects, supply
no information as to street names. Thus
most parts Of the city are without any
sign-posts for the stranger, and II is a
matter often mentioned and COM
planned Of.
Richmond would better return to the
old practice of putting small. neat sign
boards on corner houses than fail to afford
this needed Information to strangers. As
a matter Of fact, indeed, this information
is in much requisltion by residents, par
ticularly when they wander west Of First
street, where one quickly gets into a
wilderness Of forest-born streets, whose
names were taken from bushes. berries.
trees, and shrubs.
Thousands Of visitors to Richmond and
the public generally would be gratided IL
our people would arrange some way Of
designating the names OF streets so that
those names would be visible day or night.

Much Needed Institution.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
The public generally. and housekeepers
particularly, will be pleased to learn that
a colony Of Benedictine nuns are erecting
buildings in Prince William county for
and Industrial and training-school for In
digent white girls In this State.
Besides receiving plain and thoroughly
Christian education, the girls VIII DC
taught, as a means OF future independ-
ence, domestic work Of some kind. In
selecting trade or household employ
ment, due regard will be paid the speciai
talent and inclination Of each one, ana
well-trained housemaids, cooks. nurses
dairy-maids laundresses, dressmakers
and seamstresses will be sent from the
institution when good situations shall DC
offered.
The buildings were dedicated on the
18th Of July with much ceremony, Blshops
Van de Vyver, OF Richmond. and Had, OK
North Carolina, being present. The insu-
tuition is about an hours distance from
Washington city on the Southern Midland
railroad, two miles from the STATION

What Is q jury p

TO allow verdicts to be rendered by q ma
jority and by two-thirds Of the jury were
voted down. though advocated by many
lawyers The vote was 81 to 40. This
decision ought TO meet with the approval
Of the public. Nay. 1t wall. The old law re-
curing verdicts to be rendered by a unani-
nous jury commends itself TO popular
favor.

there Is no reason why jury Of 0. TO-

derson, referred to elsewhere IN this issue.
We DO mot think that this State had as
many a. ieo batteries OF artillery. even
though we count the heavy artillery regi-
ments which were turned into infantry
after the evacuation Of the Peninsula.
Sixty-four regiments and fourteen bat
talions OF infantry. ~ mentioned in Col
cnei Ainsworth's letter. In correct. but
his figures a. to artillery and cavalry
lead W to suspect that there Ii more
than one set OF rolls OF some Of the COM
mands In these arms Of the service.
An astonishing fact In this connection
Is that nearly all OF this material has
been at washington since the close OF
the war; and we have never made any
effort to get 1t and put II in print. Other
Southern States have published the names
of their soldiers. while we have done no.
thing OF the kind. AS yet We are not In
Sormed where these rolls came from.
lome suppose that they came from the
Confederate paymaster's once. and were
captured at or near Danville. However.
there Is no doubt that they are Official
rolls.
Another strange thing Is that these
rolls, having had no attention paid to
them by Virginia or virginans for twen-
ty-nine years. 1t occurred 10 the Dis
patch and to Adjutant-General Anderson
almost at the same time-without any com.
muncation with one another-to write
to Washington and inquire II there were
any such rolls there. To both letters
came affirmative answers-answers which
make 1t the imperative duty OF this Com
monwealth to proceed without further
loss OF time to rescue all this precious
material from the oblivion Of the War
Records Office vaults.
On page 10 of this issue we publish
a number OF valuable interviews on this
subject. Governor OFerrall will, OF
course, DO all that Is in his power to
cause these muster rolls TO be copied
and preserved In print. and with his help
and the help of the veterans camps the
scheme cannot fail.

Richmond's Gratifying Health Exhibit.

A doctor OF medicine. whose communi-
cation we publish in another column OF
this issue, expresses his qualification at
the sanitary statistics published In last
Tuesdays Dispatch under the signature
of +. l.. II. He also says he Is truly
glad that that able and convincing article
was published In the Dispatch and not In
q medical Journal.
1t was well. OF course. that II was
published In this paper. but we earnestly
trust that our medical journals will copy
1t, and thus give 1t permanent home.
where 1t will always be accessible TO
members Of the faculty.
Our correspondent suggests that the
City Council should have the article
printed in pamphlet form. Certainly It is
worthy Of that distinction, but we would
rather hear that the City Council. or the
Board Of Health. had employed +. L. II.
to amplify the statistics before giving
publication 70 them In pamphlet form.
When II. L. H. gathered his data he
could not lay his hands upon our health
reports for some years. We doubt not
that thess reports ere IN existence. and

A London dispatch says: Rudyard hip-
Iing's poetic abstraction Is illustrated In
an eccentric effusion which appears IN

fifteen stanzas the American spirit IL
represented as speaking:
IL the led strikers call It a strike.
