ROYALL'S LECTURE.
He Decides Not to Deliver 1t During
the Reunion.


Richmond, Va, June S.-William L.
Royal has decided not to deliver his lee
ture ION the Battle of Gettysburg dur
ing the confederate reunion.
In a letter to the Dispatch, he says Il
had proposed to deliver my lecture on the
Battle of Gettysburg during the coming
reunion of Confederate Veterans In Rich
mond I have, however, become aware
that the criticism in that lecture of certain
eminent confederate leaders had created
an anxiety in the minds Of some of our
devoted southerners that such a lecture
might be construed as a breach of that
whole-souled and universal hospitality
which is the prevailing spirit of the people
of Virginia, and especially of the city Of
Richmond, in welcoming TO our borders the
valiant defenders of our homes and fire
sides.
Without in any way changing my
opinion as to the historical truth of the
statements l have made, I shall not pres
sent them at a time when they might be
distasteful to any confederate guest of
the city of Richmond"

According ITO Gen. Booth, India is a
nation of pawnbrokers. The people think
a mans cleverness is gagged by the num-
Der Of ways he can improvise to borrow
money. They will pledge their lands,
oxen, teweiry, themselves, their children
and grandchildren: and Id one case a man
to obtain money TO defray the expenses
of his daughters wedding, even went so
far as pledging as collateral the first
child born of the proposed union.
