BRITISH BIMETALLIo LEAGUE.
+. A. Walker on Bfmetailism In
Amerfca-St. Louis Convention.

LONDON, July Bat a meeting of the
Blmetallic League here to-day an address
was delivered by Professor Francis A.
Walker, the American political econo-
mist, and superintendent OF the censuses
of the United States OF 1870 and 1880. Pro-
fessor Walker was cheered as he arose.
and was frequently interrupted by bursts
of applause He declared that no gold
monometallist party existed In the United
States. and said that he would stake his
honor that II a bimetallic convention was
proposed to the United States BY the prin-
cipal sound-money men OF Europe, the
Americans would tumble head-oyer-heels
in welcoming the proposal. Senator Gray.
Professor Walker said, would md very
few men to join him in opposition to an
appeal for a common. ratio between gold
and silver. What the silverites really de-
sired. he continued, was silver imitation
Widely separated from these men were
the real bimetallists of the United States.
Nothing, Professor Walker declared,
could be more unfounded than to say that
the Republican National Convention held
in ST. Louis had pronounced in favor OF
gold monometallism. Mr.. Mckinley, he
said. had never been a gold monometal-
list; he could not be one II he tried. He
had always been uniformly bimetallist
The maintenance Of a gold standard in
the United States was not rendered
whit less secure by reason OF anything
that was done at the convention held In
Chicago: but, despite much friendly ad-
vice from this side of the ocean, the
United States were not going to pull
other people's chestnuts out of the fire,
and would remain devoted to the rehabili-
tation Of silver as a money metal, and
always ready to make sacrifices to that
end. The bonds Of the United States.
he added, would continue to be paid
in gold. or its equivalent, and the credit OF
the United States would continue TO be
as high as it had ever been since she
had triumphantly indicated her nation
ality In the war of secession.
Professor Walker was vocferously
cheered as he resumed his seat at the
close of his address.

The present freshet In the Roanoke river

To the Editor OF the Dispatch:
We do not know from what source
Won derive your information in regard to
the tobacco crop in Virginia. You say
that the crop will be enormous In
quantity and splendid in quality. and the
prospect never so bright as the present
We admit that this may have been more
or less the case several weeks ago. bat
the excessive rains for the past Few
weeks have been very injurious 10 the
bright crop in many sections, not only
OF this State, but In both North Carolina
end South Carolina. We hear that In
some portions OF the latter State named,
the crop is very badly damaged on ac-
count OF TOO much rain. Excessive rains
will not insure us a heavy bodied crop or
a fine one. We think II much too early
