ANOTHER WAsTEFUL APPROPRTA-
TON.

The purchase OF the insignificant TRAN
gular ratch OF ground at thu Intersection
OF Broad street and Brook avenue has
been completed, and the city has the lot,
while the seller has $1,000 Of her bonds.
Such reckless, wasteful sQuandcring OF
public money has not often been made.
What will the city do with the thing
now she has got IT? 1t Is absurd to sup
pose that the admirers of General ]. Il.
b. Stuart are going 10 allow his statue
to be concealed there. They are going
TO erect a proper monument to that IL
lustrious soldier and noble patriot, and
the city OF Richmond can honor herself
by performing her pledge and taking
part in the erection of that monument,
if she chooses. But they are not going
to dishonor General Stuarts memory by
obscuring his monument there. even
though the city deeds them the unworthy
patch free gratis.
1t looks as though there was going to
be another useless squandcring OF public
money in that part Of the city. The
Finance Committee recommended that
$4,000 OF bonds be appropriated TO open
Fourshee street to Marshall, and the
Council passed resolution for 1t, only
extending the opening TO Clay. without
providing any more money. 1t seems a
little strange that $4,000 is necessary TO
open the street to Marshall. but that the
same $4,000 will carry IT on TO Clay on
a pinch. 1t Is a fair Illustration of the
way public business is attended to. II
would be all right TO do this If the city
was in any condition to do 1t. But 1t is
not. Our taxes are now unreasonably
high. We have already appropriated for
one-half of the fiscal year certainly
So 900 more land probably a good deal
more than thaD than the estimates. We
annually run in our expenditures largely
over our income, and We are threatened,
at an early day, with insolvency or addi-
tional taxation. The city is in no condi-
ton to spend this money. We hope the or
dinance will be defeated in the Board
Of Aldermen. .A-i--

sis. by the London Spectator. of the
causes Of his downfall. II will very well
repay any reader for its perusal, but 1t
is a study Of the very highest import
ance for the public men Of America.
The Spectator IL singuiarly felicitous
In its remark that "the country is moral
10 the core when II bethinks itself. but II
has fits OF WEAKNESS IN which the Pal
merston type is not acceptable TO it,"
but that as Rosebery showed himself ut
tcrly deficient in the qualities of lead

in his favor. for Epglishmen only pardon

or the other"
This is a most shrewd remark, that is
not confined TO England or Englishmen.
II Is just as true OF America and Ameri-
cans. This country is moral to the core,
also when 1t be thinks itself. but it also
has its periods OF WEAKNESS. when IL
will turn from the unbendipg propriety
Of Joha c. Calhoun TO the woll-known
lapscs OF Henry Clay. But 1t tolerated
Henry Clay's Celinquencies, becs use he
was a man and leader. They would
have brought him into utter contempt
had there been trace OF the m.lksop in
his character.
Lord Rosebery's idea that the reople are
TO be followed instead of being led is the
fatal rock upon which the ships OF ninety
nine public men out OF every hundred in
America split and so to the bottom. The
people want 10 be led and not TO be fol-
lowed. They are hungry for the man who
can blaze out a path and lead them
strongly and self-reliantly along 1t. They
have nothing hut contempt for the man
who. as the Spectator puts II. points

THE RESOLUTIONS OF TIE CHAM
BEH or COMMERCE.

Richmond's Chamber Of Commerce is TO
be congratulated upon the clear and ex-
plicit declaration it has made against
free coinage OF silver at a ratio Of 10 to l.
Such a declaration was to be expected
from the chief commercial city or the
South. If New orleans be excepted, and
IL is worthy OF the intelligent men who
conduct and control the commerce and
business of Richmond. The petition taken
by the resolutions adopted, that Tee COIN
age of silver at the ratio of l6 TO means
oliver monometallism. is as plain to any
man Of ordir airy intelligence as the propo-
siticn that twice two make four. a gold
dollar worth enc hundred cents viii not
circulate upon even terms with silver
dollar worth only fifty cents. The reason
II does so now is that the government in
effect mot literally. gives a gold dollar
for every silver dollar when it is demand
ed and this keeps the fifty-cent silver dol
lar as valuable as the gold &C llar. But free
coinage Of silver would soon make the
silver dollars so numerous that the gov
eminent would be unable to give gold
dollar for a silver dollar WI enever 1t
was demanded. and then all the gold
would go away. and we should have silver
monometallism with ffty-cent dollars.
The Chamber Of Commerce ought now
10 invite Mr. Carlisle to come here and
make a speech on silver. His speeches in
Kentucky produced a greater effect than
any speeches that have been made I'm
long time. and they would produce equal
effect In Virginia We have reason to be-
lieve he will come The matter should
be taken up promptly.
