As TO the Removal of the Monitors.

RICHMOND. VA. June u, 1875.
To the Editor OF the Dispatch:
heard one of the men from the mont
tors say this morning that within the
next sixty or ninety days not one OF
these vessels would be aound in James
river, and that an examination OF their
condition was only an excuse 10 get them
from here, never 10 return. League
Island, the man said, is the point TO which
they will be sent. and unless some prompt
action il taken by our people quite
little money will thus be taken from our
city.
II the statement Of the man Is true, and
our business associations are not already
at work In the matter. can you not help
arouse our people TO the importance oil
retaining these vessels here? ID. ii. D.
This letter is from n gentleman promi-
nent in business and public affairs here
and we are satisfied that he has gotten
mis- information from a reliable source.
We commend his suggestions to the
earnest and immediate attention OF the
Chamber Of Commerce Of this city. Our
people would very much dislike TO see
the monitors removed from James river,
and we can imagine no public interest
TO be served by such removal.
II the Chamber has not already taken
steps in that direction. 1t seems to us
that the Secretary Of the Navy should be
communicated with. so that he may not
consent TO issue any order Of removal
until he has heard what we have to say
on the subject.

Daniels Grafton.

We print in full this morning the Grafton
Of Senator John w. Daniel delivered at
the unwilling yesterday at the University
Of Virginia of Valentines bust of Pro-
fessor John b. Minor. Although Senator
Daniel is always eloquent and always
appropriate in his orations, we think the
public will agree with US that never were
he and an occasion better met than In
this instance.
The address is a masterpiece of beauti-
full and vigorous diction. in which the
services of Professor Minor to the bar.
to the University, and to his State are
nobly set forth. 1t is worthy of the great
teacher. whose features are so faithfully
brought out in the marble, worthy of
the orators brilliant reputation and
worthy of the art that has been employed
to testify the appreciation Of Professor
Minor of those who have sat at his feet.

Mr.. Gibson has been arraiened by the

The TiIImanites' Triumph.

The Tillmanites have won great VIC
tory in the South Carolina registration
case which was decided by the United
States Circuit Court Of Appeals on Tues
day last.
The course OF Governor Evans In re-
fusing to call an extra session OF the
Legislature 20 amend the registration
laws TO conform TO Judge Cons views
has been vindicated. Better than all
Tor the Tfllmanites. they now have the
sympathy Of many persons who have
heretofore not been, in touch with them;
while those Democrats who appealed
against their State to Judge Golf find
themselves 'in a. hole so to speak.
Altogether, booking at the thing from
n point OF view in Virginia and In the
Hight OF the court s decision, the injunc-
lion proceedings were bad. very bad poll
tics. for the anti-T1llmanites.
In the registration matter. Judge Goff
has undertaken to rule South Carolina as
Judge Bond used to try to rule Virginia
nbout public debt matters. What amazes
MS here very much is that any South
carolina Democrat should have counte-
nanced an appeal 10 Judge Gon to step
I'm and overthrow a very considerable
part of the machinery of the State Gov
ernment. Doubtless there are phases OF
The South Carolina situation which we
do not thoroughly understand: but 1t at
least seems clear that those who invoked
Cons aid have got nothing thereby, ex-
rept whatever credit, or discredit, attaches
10 an appeal TO a Federal judge to
s'down" a State administration.
The opinion OF Judge Hughes in this
South Carolina case is very readable and
Instructive. Its judicial calmness does
not prevent the public from concluding
shat the court thought that the case
before them was ridiculously trivial. The
wonder is that Judge Goff. who is said to
be a good lawyer. could have allowed its
faults TO escape his eye. The appellate
court thought Judge COTS injunction
S,nprovidently awarded. But, in no event
could such an injunction have stood long.
and those at whom it was levelled must
now regard it as godsend TO their
cause. as II enabled them 70 enlist
great deal Of State feeling In their favor.
The effect has been. and will continue to
De. strongly in favor Of the Tillmanites.
and we hope that they VIII avail them
selves OF the opportunity now before them
TO harmonic all party differences, and
make the Democratic party of South
carolina acceptable 10 all Of the whites
Of that State.

yirgiuia'S Gold Brick.

II appears that Smith alias Parker alias
Sthc goid-brick'' man. showed" a gold
brick off on the State Of Virginia, as well
ns upon MIR. Withers, Of Gloucester county.
Not only was Virginia and the city
of Richmond and the county of Henrico
subjected TO greabcost in arresting Smith
and securing the presence here of wit
Oesses 10 testify against him. but the
State has had TO pay the expense of
travel and attendance OF numerous Wit
hesses who were summoned before the
Various judges TO testify in the Smith
habeas corpus cases. This sum will not
be inconslderable.
There Is an idea prevailing with some
of the public that. though Smith has
gone, we have got his 5000; and that this
o. so mech money made. 1t is true that
she 5000 Will be forthcoming when
Smiths bond rs duly declared forfeited;
hut we doubt If II will more than repay
the public for the actual outlay OF money
made in the hope that Smith would be
banded IN the penitentiary.
IL the present custom OF allowing
prisoner to apply to each judge In the
Commonwealth In turn until bail Is
granted must be continued. IT would
be I'm the interest of economy to bring
abe judges to the prisoner, rather than
20 take the prisoner TO the judges. OF
course this would be a great anomaly,
but not more than is the law. or alleged
Jaw, which allows prisoner who has
been refused bail by a corporation judge
20 be bailed by a county judge. Judge
Mullen. OF Petersburg. to whom Smith
FIRST applied for bail, is the judge OF a
corporation court. Ills court ranks with
g. circuit court; whereas Judge Isaac H..
Christian is the judge OF county court.

Not wholly In vain will Smith alias
Parker have left this Commonwealth a
gold brick to hold. II his case should re-
celve the legislative attention that 1t de-
serves. and eventuate in reform in our
criminal laws At present our laws give
crimtnals too many chances OF escape.
hhe odds against the conviction Of them
hre too great. The Influence OF money
b. being felt as never before.
The Legislature will find the people OF
virginia ready 10 support II In radical
changes 20 insure greater certainty in

And II our State Constitution presents
any obstacles not TO be overcome by the
Legislature. the people would consider a

Sunday Rev. DR.. Hoge preached the

Richmond, Va. Many persons turned
away from the door disappointed. All
available space was occupied by persons
standing, and yet. crowded as was the
hall. the very best Of order was kept, and
one might have heard pin drop any
where in the audience while DR.. Hoge
was speaking"
The Advertiser then gives two-column
report Of the sermon, and after alludins
TO the fact that during the war Or. Hoge
ran the blockade and secured large
number OF Bibles for the southern army,
adds:
I'm the congregation yesterday was an
old Confederate veteran who still trea-
sures one of these Bibles. DR.. Hose saw
the soldiers reading their Bibles as they
marched away to battle. In many in
stances II was the last book they ever
looked into"
