In Scotland the custom still pre-
walls of taking down the window
blinds at the death and hanging
white sheets cross the windows.
The custom also prevails in the
north of England, and in many fam

pose and often used from generation
to generation.
In many parts of Scotland, too, it
is still customary for the nearest rel
atives of the deceased to lower the
body into the grave and wait by the
side until the grave is filed up.-

The House is not in session to-day.

VIRGINIA's DEBT QUESTION The
decision of the Court of Appeals last
week as to the validity of the coupon
contract, has been a subject of general
discussion in Richmond. 1t is a fore
gone conclusion that if the decision OF
the court be final, the outstanding Sc
curities will have no ground upon
which to stand, and holders thereof
will have to fund under the Olcott set
Element. This they may do, as the last
legislature, by special enactment, ex-
tended the time within which they
may avail themselves of the Olcctt set
Element. The question of interest just
now is whether or not the case will
find its way into the United Supreme
Court. Col. r. L. Maury, counsel for
the bondholders, has put himself in a
position to appeal his case, though he
is not yet advised as to what course bis
clients will take. He thinks, however,
that an appeal will be taken. The
amount involved in the case at issue is
not large enough to entitle it per Sc to
an appeal to the federal Supreme Court,
so that the appellant will have TO show that
there is a federal question involved-that is
to say, a question involving the constitutional
right OF Il citizen of the United Sales.--future
the federal court will entertain bis appeal.
Judge Lewis said from the bench that Inc
had no doubt thata federal question was in
volved and that he would feel it his duty TO
certify on the court records to that effect.
But the other members of the court did not
agree with him. ana he afterwards so an
nounced. Such ): certificate, however is not
necessary, and. if the case is appealed, the
United States Supreme Court will first pass
upon the question of jurisdiction, and will
then either dismiss the case as one which it is
not proper for it to consider, or, else. it vii!
hear it on its merits.
Colonel Richard L. Maury, counsel for the
holders of outstanding coupons, is in New
York. and it is understood that while there
he will confer with his clients as to whether
or not an appeal will be taken from the re-
cent decision of tho Court of Appeals AS to the
validity of tho coupon-contract. Nothing
definite, however, can be stated at this writ

CoNGREssIoNAL.-As stated in the
GAZETTE of that date the sundry civil
appropriation bill was passed by the
House yesterday without division. The
amendment to the appropriation for the
general land office, amending the pro-
visions of the act of 1891 repeating the
timber culture and presumption acts,
was defeated in the House. The
clauses which sought to require an ac-
counting by the disbursing officers of
soldiers homes to the Treasury Depart
ment and annual reports by the boards
to the Secretary of War fell, under Mr..
Blacks point of order. The bill, as
passed, carries *217, 900 moro than it
did as reported from the committee on
appropriations. The O'Neill-Joy con-
tested election case was called up, but
the republicans raised the question of
consideration against it, and then de-
clined to vote. The rollcall showed but
l54 democratic members present, al
though it is claimed that there are 173 in
the city. AS many members desired to
witness the test of the 13inch gun at
the Indian Head proving grounds to-
day, and as the chances of securing a
quorum were slim, resolution was
adopted revoking leaves of absence,
and the House adjourned over until
Thursday.
