THE people of Ha wall, at least large

| do not take so much interest in the an
| nexation question as some po ople suppose
| said MFR. Atwood to caller last evening
.There are many things that interest them
more than tGa3Q They ore an exceedingly
Intelligent, e4&1 rising people. They have,
| many OF the0fheed In several countries, or,
| at least, vf1iied. several countries, in the
course of c3RE43ive ira vels. THAT fact Is
enough to cUS3H their unusual brightness
OF mind, other conditions being equal, you
know. The whites are travellers, almost
from necessity, for the climate there is
enerrating Id us monotonous mildness. and
they arr glad 70 make frequent visits TO
the United States. As for the natives, they
are good bear}ed, kindly people. but SO
easy-going as 70 be rightly called lazy"

Der OF Congress In the lobby OF the Airing
ton last evening, referring 10 the chairman
Ship OF the Ways and Means.
"He certainly had good grounds for. dis
appointment, but have watched him par
tieulariy, from. a position that gives me
plenty OF opportunity. and lie doesn't sho W
a sign OF the sulks. He is a useful, working
member OF the committee, and has cool,
judicial mind, besides, He's mighty good
man to have next to the chairman, and his
influence In about as great there as 1t
would be at the head, at lenst so far as
the members of the committee are con-
cerned. In the prompt work which the
committee did on the revenue and bond bills
you can make up your mind that Mr.. Payne
wasn't silent or inactive"
THE sculptor of John E. Calhoun's statue.
L which is now being cast, is at the
Hotel Page. He is Mr.. J. Massey Rhind. of
New York. The new statue. although not
yet completed. already has an interesting
history. The money was subscribed before
the war and has been held in trust by Mrs.
.snowtlcn. a warm personal friend of Mr..
Calhoun. as the president of the Ladies'
Monument Committee.

Gated in Charleston" said Mr.. Rhind, last
evening. at is TO occupy a place in Plaza
Square. where the old statue of Calhoun
has been standing for many years. The old
one has always been unsa satisfactory, but
think this later model will meet with popu-
lar acceptance. hope so, anyway"

Col. Lamb describes the object of his visit
to the capital as merely one of personal
business. AS for the outlook for the Republic
can party in Virginia, he takes very con-
servative views Yethe is not by any means
hopeless OF a future for the party there.
1t wasn't many years ago that West Vir-
GINA was cropping in Observation-Disclosures.
The solid South has been broken all TO
flinders in some parts. and Col. Lamb says
he hopes to See Virginia some time cast
