WEDNESDAY EVENING. MAY ], 1885

ONE of the newspapers of the federal
capital that devote so much OF their
space to denouncing the people anu
law officers of Alexandria county Tor
their inability to keep the vicious and
criminal classes of Washington from
crossing the Potomac, says there Is d
natural tendency in that "city to trans
Potomac growth" Why certainly
there is, but that tendency is obstruct-
ed by the paper referred to, which OPP
posed the crossing of the Potomac by
the Mt. Vernon Railroad, and which
even favors the removal of the Long
Bridge. There are land syndicates
whose property lies on the north side
of the Potomac, and it is to their inter
est that the growth of Washington
should be northward, instead of south
ward. Most human actions spring
from interested motives, but that they
do, is only in accordance with hu-
man nature-which is prone to evil.

DURING THE reign of the Emperor
Dom Pedro in Brazil that country was
orderly and quiet, and its people con-
tented, prosperous and happy. Since the
demagogues there deposed and drove
him out, and changed the government
into so-called republic, that country
has been in a constant state of dissatis,
faction and discomfort, and riots,
mobs, instructions and revolts have
followed each other in rapid succession
Anglo-Saxon people can hardly get
along well under republican form Of
government, let alone the Latin race
and negroes, and the best thing the
Brazilians could do for themselves
would be to re-establish their empire,
and recall the legitimate heirs of their
wise and good old Emperor who died
in exile.

A BIG STRIKE.-A dispatch from Po-
cahontas, Va, says fifteen thousand
coal miners employed along the Ohio
extension of the Norfolk and Western
railroad are out on strike. The men
out include all the miners in the Flat
Top coal region with the exception of
1880 men employed by the Southwest
Improvement Company and the Brown
ing mines at Pocahontas. The immedi-
ate cause of the strike was the notice by
the operators of 20 per cent. reduc,
ton in wages from the first day of May.
1t is said the operators are in sympathy
with the strikers and made the cut for
the purpose of bring the men out to
force the Norfolk and Western to make
terms as to cars, the operators claiming
that the cars furnished were not dis
tributed upon an equal basis. The
striking miners claim to be in posi-
ton to maintain the strike for an in
definite length of time.

suit was that II came out OF the hole
and went for him. OF course the snake
could not get much pace on and was
quickly killed.
