An Ambitious Railroad scheme.

Considerable interest is being de-
veloped in Virginia and West Virginia
in regard to the project for the con-
struction OF what is known as the "Vir-
ginia Railway" of which Mr.. G. w.
Smith, of Chicago, close friend of Mr..
G.. P. Huntington, is president. The
charter was secured under the name of
the Columbus, Huntington and Guy
andotte Railroad, but after sub
scription bonds had been voted by
several West Virginia counties the
name was changed to the "Virginias
Railway" As projected, a short line
is to be constructed west of the Ohio
river to connect with the Cincinnati,
Hamilton and Dayton Railroad. The
Ohio is to be crossed at Huntington,
and the road will traverse Cabell,
Logan, Wyoming and Lincoln counties,
w. Va. Virginia is to be entered at
the Lincoln county line. A charter is
now pending before the Virginia Leg
islatnre to extend the road to the sea-
board at Newport News. The road, as
projected, would pass through Roanoke
and Danville, and it is said the Atlanta
and Danville people and the projectors
of the Virginias are in correspondence.
The construction of this road would
open up new through line from Chica
go to Norfolk or Newport News, and
develop one of the richest coal belts in
the country. 1t is said to be twenty
miles nearer from Roanoke to Norfolk
over the proposed route than over the
Norfolk and Western.-B0zt. San.

The Eczair, leading Partisan news
paper, abiding to the report of the
foreign relations committee of the q.
Is. Senate in favor of reaffirming and
extending the scope of the Monroe doc
trine, says
s.Does the American government
think it is strong enough to appropri-
ate in it's own interest one of the two
hemispheres, and forbid Europe to
have access to at least half of the
world? If it pushes its extravaganza
pretensions to this point, the only
thing that can happen will be that all
Europe will arrive at an understand
ing by which they will close their ports
to American ships, II measure which
will make America ask for mercy with
in week. Why does America assume
an attitude she cannot maintain
This states the case in a few words,
and, what's more, the statement is
made, not by paper printed in Eng
land, with which the President has
raised the dispute, not by paper that
supports a monarchical government,
but by one published in the capital OF
the most powerful republic in the
world, except that of this country.
Such an assumption as that proposed
by the report referred to, would almost
necessarily involve this country not
only in one, but in many wars, IN all
of which, all the other civilized ma
lions would take the part of its oppo-
nents, and in none of which could 1t
succeed. An attempt Of this govern
ment to exercise a protectorate over
one half of the earth would not only
be absurd, but grotesquely absurd

SENATOR DANIELS SPEECH.

On Thursday last, Senator Daniel
spoke on the subject of the Monroe
doctrine. following for once the lead OF
the President and unfolding the arm
of that functionary with the might ana
power that senator can, when II
pleases him so to do. With humble
Difference, we disagree both with
Senator Daniel and the President on
this momentous question.
The Doctrine has been so much dis
cussed that we will not tire our readers
with our further views, but II there DC
those who wish to see a presentation
of it from the affirmative side, we know
of none more able or eloquent than
this speech affords. Senator Dahlei
does not go to the extent OF Lodge, or
Boutelle, or Chandler, or any OF those
chivalrous statesmen. who are painting
for war, but he does throw a pro-
Electorate in tie shape OF the American
flag over the whole of South America.
Mr.. Daniel closed his speech as fol-
lows
"This nation cannot recede from the
Monroe doctrine or from the position
taken by the President. All critics.
ali friends of peace, should recognize
this fact, and take their reckoning. It
is not to be expected of us to speak ID
whispers, or to start at shadows, while
the corridors of the Capitol are ringing
with invectives levelled against those
who do not applaud the aggrandlzing
pirit of Great Britain.
The close of Mr.. Daniels speech was
literally applauded.

Nervura blood and nerve remedy and
the good results in cases, as tonic, af-

DIR. G. W. Cook, of Carmel, Ind,
says
II have used Dr. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy for my patients
and have found the remedy all that
was claimed for it. The results have
been entirely satisfactory. Think it is
worthy and / recommend its use."
Such enthusiastic endorsements by
physicians stamps this remarkable
medical discovery as the greatest re
storer of health and strength. 1t Ger
tainly cures more cases of disease than
any other known remedy. 1t makes all
who take it strong and we'll. 1t is the
prescription and discovery of we'll

West 18th ST., New York City, who can
be consulted without charge, personal
ly or by letter.

THAT MASS-MEETING.

There is a little unwritten history
attached to that mass meeting, which
assembled at Columbian Hall on the
evening of the 18th instant. 1t now
transpires that the mass meeting was
called to carry out vastly different
project from the one it did carry out.
The action of the meeting was mild in
the extreme, but the real. though
frustrated purpose. was portentious,
and radical. There was ticket print
ed and in the pockets of a faction OF
the ''anti primaries" and the repub-
lican contingent, with the following
names upon it,
FIRST WARD. SECOND WARD.

Them being good enough to serve q
second term. It CHANGED, however
that in maturing their plans, the pro
jectors happened to unfold them to a
few people with discretion enough te
see that had the project succeeded
the projectors, and the republican
contingent, would have disappeared
from public gaze, before a storm Of
democratic indignation. On thai
ticket were several avowed candidates
a republican or two, several other gen
tlemen whose views have always beer
an unknown quantity in political pro
blems, and not a single person who
fayored a primary. To have attempted
to bind the democrats of Staunton by
the action of a body so constituted
and SO nondescrlpt, as the proposed
Committee, would have been to stem
Niagara with sand. This was discov
cred just in time, and a different tack
taken, which resulted in the harmoni
GUS resolutions, so harmonious tc
every ear. except the instigators o.
the meeting, and the republican con
tingent.

COURT OF APPEALS.
Only Three Opinions Rendered by tina
Tribunal on Last Thursday.

Only Three Opinions Rendered by tina
Tribunal on Last Thursday.
Only three opinions were rendered in
the Supreme Court of Appeals Thurs
day. The most important case decided
was that of Miller against Miller's Ad-
ministrator and others, from the Cir
cult Court of Culpeper, and is very
similar to the one recently decided in
volving the question of married wo
mans separate estate. The case decid
ed was whether or not Sarah J. Miller
took a separate estate in the land con
veyed to her jointly with Mary E.
White by deed from Carter B. Cropp
and his wife. The court held that no
particular form of words was necessary
in order to vest property in a married
woman, and thus create separate es-
tate. All that was necessary was to
make the intention clear and uneauiv-
ocal, as the law would not lightly &c
prive the husband of his legal rights.
! In this case the intention was clear.
1.-The extent of the liability of the
separate estate for the general engage
ments of the married women and the
manner of it's enforcement" the opin-
ion states, ''were fully considered in
the case of Price against the Planters
Bank, decided on the previous opinion
day, and which is now the leading case
in Virginia, on that subject. Another
of the cases decided was that of Raub
against Otterback, from the Circuit
Court of Fairfax county. The opinion
Was read by Judge Harrison. This was
an intricate case, involving joint per-
sonal decree in an attachment suit in
equity against the appellees. After
arguing the bearing of the law upon
the controversy, the opinion states that
no valid attachment was levied, and,
therefore, no lien acquired on the real
estate of the debtor The decree of the
tower court was affirmed.
The third case in which an opinion
| was rendered was that of Lillienfield
against the Commonwealth. Lillien-
field was summoned before the Corpora
ton Court of Charlottesville, and had
his license revoked for selling liquor to
minors. He took an appeal to the Su
preme Court, but in an able opinion by
Judge Reilly the judgment of the lower
court was affirmed.

One of the most noted physicians and
surgeons is DIR. Job Sweet, of New Bed
ford. Mass. He makes the public state
ment that he has often recommended
the use of DR.. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy to his patients who
have been suffering from nervous trou-
bles and he has learned that in large
number of these cases it has proven eff
fcacious.
DIR. Willard H. Morse, f. B. s. &c., of
Westfield, N. j., the great expert on
medicines, says of this grand discovery
of DR.. Greene
''The true remedy for nervous dis
eases is DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy. It acts by affecting the
organs of nutrition, and entering into
the formation of new nerve tissue.
which generates nerve force. This
means the making Of new nerves."

experimenting physician of the N. Y.

LONDON, Jan. 22.-Prince Henry of
Battenberg, the husband of Princess
Beatrice, youngest daughter of Queen
Victoria, is dead. The Prince accom-
panied the Ashanti expedition to

From the few details received it ap.

Prince Alexander of Battenberg, uncle
of Ludwig ", Grand Duke of Hesse.
He married the Princess Beatrice in
1885. They have four children. He
was born October 5, 1858, and was Gov
ernor of the Isle OF Wight and of Carts

Prince will last for six weeks and ex-
tend over the coming season, and all
the drawing-rooms have been aban-
doned,

last Friday Mr.. John K. Cowen, the
general counsel Of the company, was
unanimously elected president to
succeed Mr.. Charles F. Mayer, who
declined re election.
Mr.. Cowen will resign his seat as a
Representative in Congress of the
fourth Maryland district and will also
give up his position as general counsel
of the railroad, so that he can devote
his entire time to the presidency of
that company.
The selection of Mr.. Cowen as presi-
dent was recommended by the special
committee appointed to select suit
able person for the place.
Mr.. Edward R. Bacon, president of
the BE- O.Southwestern Railway Com
pany, was at the same meeting elected

George G. Jenkins, resigned.

The active steps taken by the Board
of Supervisors on Saturday in regard
to the court house will be received with
qualification by our county and town
people. Designs and specifications for
a $50. 900 court house will be asked for,
and at the same time estimates on the
cost of putting the present structure
in fit condition to safely keep the
county and circuit court records will
be received. Judge Mclaughlin some
time since ordered new vault in which
to store the circuit court records, and
the county records are in no safer place.
1t is the hope of most of our people
that new building will be construct
ed, and that il is needed, no one doubts.
