Rolls Of virrtuia Soldiers.

An editorial In the Dispatch Of Sunday
last called attention 10 the desrability
and feasibility Of compiling roster OF
the commands and officers ana men
which Virginia furnished to the Confed-
crate army.
That article has been SO favorably COM
mented upon. we believe that II our vet
erans' camps would petition the General
Assembly for an appropriation for the
purpose OF carrying such a scheme into
operation It would be readily granted.
What with the rolls now here at Rich
mond and other rolls In private hands Ia
this State, and the valuable material In
possession Of the War Records once al
Washington. We believe It quite possible
to make up fairly complete roster Of the
virginians who served In the Confederate
army.
Is such a record worth having? Well
we should say yes-most emphatically
Then why not try to secure It? II we
cannot make 1t complete let us make II
as complete as possible. One or two In
telligent men able to do good clerical
work could. in the course of year OF
two. copy all OF these rolls for the state
This done, the General Assembly couic

sub.Post.Of6ces Hero.

Our people are glad to know that Con-
gresham Wise is "prodding" the Post
Office Department with the view of
fastening its action with respect to the
sub-post Offices and stations which 1t has
promised Richmond.
We must say that the department is
taking its time. 1t is showing this public
how very dignifed and leisurely II can be
when IL wishes. This city has been with
out these conveniences for years and
years, while smaller cities, doing a much
smaller business than Richmond. have
had them, and it is Hike drawing ones
eye-teeth to get them established here.
even after they have been promised to
us.
When the Dispatch began the agitation
for Richmond's rights In this respect, II
was astounded to find that our city was
not only denied these conveniences, but
denied them after they had been
granted to Charleston, Nashville, Chatta-
nooga, Atlanta, and other cities. not one
of which does as much business as Rich
mond.
We trust-and we know-that Mr.. Wise
will keep "hammering" at the Post-Office
Department until the branches and sta
lions are in actual operation here.

Clerical Work by Contract.

In the United States Senate on Mon
day Mr.. Dolph, Of Oregon. proposed that
all the governments clerical work should
be given out to contractors just as con-
tracts for the work Of naval construction
are given out. Mr. Dolph's next pro-
position may be to put out the legislative
work OF the government to contractors. Or
possibly. he will propose to hire the law
yers by contract, who are to be employed
in the several departments of the gov
eminent. 1t is a novel suggestion that
Mr. Dolph made. and one that will not
soon take the form of law.
