crossed the line at 1O:3O:5O; Vigilant at
10:S1:2O. At the start light north

Washington Street.


It is the opinion of many of our pro-
gressive citizens that the ''Mt. Vernon"
has been given as much (for nothing
as the corporation of Alexandria can
afford to give. And when its managers
come back and ask for division OF
Washington street, it is considered
cheeky. 1t is reportrd that the Penn
sylyanis r. R. Co. has secured con-
trolling interest in the "Mt. Vernon"
IF so, then the local trains will be with
drawn and the "Mt. Vernon" substitute
ed. And the advantages we expected
to derive from competing road will
amount to nothing; the same number
of trips and the same fare will be the
result. We cannot agree with some of
our people who claim that the owners
of property on Washington street
should decide as to whether the street
should be given to the electric road or
not. Every citizen in the city feels that
he is part owner of the street and
takes pride in calling it "our Washing
ton street." and as has been suggested
by the GAZETTE it will be part OF the
Mt. Vernon Avenue in the near future
ga thing of beauty and joy for
ever,n-a central link in the chain that
will connect the tomb and the monu-
ment. Let US hold Washington street
for something more grand, more orna-
mental than double row of piles.
They have King, Fairfax, Royal, Co.
lumbus, Cameron and Peyton streets
and thew can have several others for
the asking, but we propose to draw the
line on the street that was named in
honor to the Gather of his country"

all of the craft were destroyed. The
boats were moored in fleets, and those

fire spread so rapidly that those on
board the boats had little, time to make
their escape. Hundreds jumped over
board and were drowned, while still
greater numbers were burned to death.
At least one thousand persons per-

SOUTHERN REPUBLICANS IGNORED

A letter from Washington says Gen.
James A. Walker, of Pulaski, the re-
publican candidate for Congress from
the 9th Virginia district, was in that
city yesterday and called on the ma.
tional congressional committee in COM
pany with General Malone. The
object of the visit was to procure
the sinews of war for the campaign.
1t is said that the secretary of the
committee, Mr.. Mckee, informed the
General that the committee had decid-
ed to ignore the southern republicans
entirely this fall, and appealed to Gen.
Malone to say if it was not by his adj
vice, and at bis solicitation that this
conclusion was reached in regard to
Virginia.
Gen. Malone, it is said, admitted he
had advised that the republican con-
gressional candidates in Virginia be
given the "cold shoulder" but he de-
sired an exception to be made in the
Ninth district.
1t is not probable that Gen. Walker
will receive much help from his nation
al committee.

FRIDAY EVENING. AUG. 81, 1884.

THE Richmond Dispatch, referring
to the Presidents delay of twelve days
in signing the tariff bill, during which
time the whisky trust withdrew from
the bonded warehouses all the whisky
it could get hold of, and the sugar tr'is. !.
hurried the arrivals of its cargoes OF
sugar on the sea, says:
SIT was no easy matter for the Presi-
dent to make up his mind. ana ne
took no more time to consider Inc olii
than the Constitution allowed DIM.
He was besieged by day aud by night.
He had no peace whilst he was IN an
undecided frame of mind"
Has the Dispatch been asleep again !!
The President had considered the bill
so long and so much before its passage
and was so familiar with its provisions,
that he did not even look at it after 1t
was laid before him, but sent it at once
to its proper department, and, two or
three days thereafter, went off to Buz-
zards' Bay to recover from his pros
tration." Why, in the very same issue
of the Dispatch containing the above
quoted paragraph, there appears Rep,
resentative Wilson's statement, that
while the President, during the long
preparation of the bill, 'scrupulously
abstained from interference with the
work of those entrusted with tariff
legislation, he was incessant, in and
out of season, in urging that the pledges
on which we had come into power
should be fulfilled" Leaving out Of
view, as not pertinent, the patent fact
that the Wilson bill was a protective
tariff bill, and therefore would not have
fulfilled the pledges on which the dem
ocrats came into power, the other fact
that the President, Gin and out of sea
son." was urging his recommendation
in reference to the bill upon democratic
congressman, shows that he was a
we'll prepared to sign the bill on tn
day it passed, as he was twelve day
afterwards when he allowed it to be
come a law without his signature, ant
thereby have turned the millions OF dol
lars the two trusts referred to made b.
his delay, into the q. S. treasury.

AN OLD negro who was picking cot
ton in South Carolina for forty cents a
hundred, for white planter, was taken
out of his house last Wednesday night
by some men of his own race and fog
ged severely, because that was ten
cents less than they would pick cotton
for a white man, though they would do
it for a black one. If the people OF the
North knew as much of negro charac-
ter as those of the South do, they might
possible be more charitably disposed
towards the latter.

In Baltimore call money was quoted around

readily made at 5 per cent, with the regular

fluences which procured it?" The

KENTUCKY PoLITICS.-A duel to the
death with knives occurred in Clark
county, KY, near Boonshoro', on We'd
nesday over the scandal feature of the
Ashland congressional contest. John
King, Breckenridge man, living in
Fayette county, met on the highway
his old friend, George Cook, who lives
in Clark county. Cook said any wom-
an who went to hear Breckenridge
speak was no better than courtesan.
King dismouted from his horse, saying
his wife and daughters had heard
Breckenridge. Cook insisted it was a
shame. He also dismounted. Both
drew knives and blood flowed freely,
until Cook dropped, having three stabs
in the breast. Kiisgo escened. ..-~-,
Eldr J. w. McGarvey, an instructor
on theological subjects in the Bible
College of Kentucky University and a
leader in the Christian Church of the
South, has again taken up the cudgel
against Colonel Breckenridge, using |
Evangelist Barnes's sermon of Sunday
night as his text. Elder McGarvey
was out in letter yesterday denounc-
ing Barnes as religious mouutebank,
who has wandered from one church to
another during his remarkably check
cred career in and out of the pulpit.
He holds up Barnes as man who has
at various times pretended to have re-
ceived sanctification. the power to heal
by anointment and the power to alb
solve the sins of those confessing to
him. After some years of a very noted
career in Kentucky he went to India,
and while there he had revelation
from the Lord to the effect that the
English people are the twelve lost
tribes of Israel and that Queen Victoria
is the head of the true church. He
obtained membership in
the Episcopal church, but that church,
like the Presbyterian, refused to in
dorse his heresies by putting him into
the ministry.
