GEN. RossER ExpbAINs.-After

GEN. ROsSER ExPLAINs.-After a
silence of nearly six years Maj Gen
eral Thomas l.. Rosser, formerly OF
the Confederate army, has explained a
remark of his, which, at the time, drew
down upon him the wrath of the entire
Grand Army of the Republic.
The remark in question was that
lone southerner could whip five Yam
kees." and the General is said to have
made it in the lobby of a Baltimore
hotel in the presence of General Wade
Hampton, of South Carolina, and Sen.
ator Colquitt, of Georgia.
II did make a remark something like
that" said the General, who is on a
brief visit to this city, but it was mis-
construed and distorted
cit was in Baltimore some years ago.
The news reached me that Senator Zoe
Black burn, Of Kentucky, had pulled
the ear of Senator Chandler, OF Yer
mont, in a Senate committee room,
and that the Senator from Vermont
had not resented it. l then said to a
number of gentlemen that if all Of the
northerners OF the war had been like
Senator Chandler that one southerner
could have licked five of them
''The press took this remark up and
tossed it about Until all of the G. A. r.
men, among whom | have now many
good friends were highly incensed. !

manders explaining the remark, but |

for their benefit. ''-NeaO York Journal

To HANG.-Solomon Marable ha.
again been pronounced guilty of the
murder of Mrs. Lucy Jane Pollard
His case was concluded in the County
Court of Prince Edward on Wednes
day. The prisoner did not appear re
realize the gravity of his situation
when the verdict was rendered, anG
stood looking listlessly at the fool
while Clerk Thackston read the solemn
and awful words, eve, the jury, fnd
the prisoner at the bar guilty.
Sentiment in favor of Mary Aber
hathy and Pokey Barnes has greatly
diminished since the trial of Marable
commenced. The fact that Wilson
Alternately admitted that his wife was
at the house only one hour before the
murder was committed. coupled with
Old Man Pollard's testimony that he
left Mary Barnes at his place just a
short while before the crime is suppos
ed to have been perpetrated and Mara
ble's statement, has dispelled a great
deal of doubt as to the guilt of the
negro women.
This case has caused more excite
ment than most any murder case in
Virginia in years, and the threats OF
lynching were SO pronounced at one
time that the prisoners had to be re
moved from Iunenburg Jail to Prince
Edward county. The trial OF the wo-
men has been postponed till next
month, owing to the absence of i'm
portant witnesses.

That Dreadful Ring.

There is a faint sound in the pollti-
cal air which reminds us of times
gone by-a still voice whispering. ring,
ring. It is the custom with our re
publican friends, when defeat stares
them in the face, when argument
fails. and logic is wanting, to cry Boss,
and Ring. When this gets thraadbare,
the Anderson cCormick election law
with the Walton attachment. under
goes a touching-up with fresh paint
and is brought to the front in great
hideousness. Now since our friends OF
opposing politics have rung in these
Trojan horses on us so often, and we
know so we'll what is in them, cannot
they get up something new. just for a
change. YOU know-not that these are
not good things of the kind, but to
make the accusation ''more binding 2?
Sometimes politicians win victories
by showing the unworthiness OF
their enemies; sometimes by showing
their own worthiness. Have our re-
publican friends tried the latter Ii
would be good thing to experiment
on once in thirty years, and II they
win on this issue in the May election
we will help celebrate the victory

The Senate.

The United States Senate has really
dropped below the House in lack OF
calmness, sober thought and careful
dignified consideration of important
issues. This body has done about all
it could to increase. agitation, to In
fame passions, to disturb the popular
judgement and to promote policy OF
tumult and uproar.
The Senate galleries are crowded
with the filth of Washington's streets
and to this crowd do Senators talk
and for this applause do they seek.
Great nations like England are abused
and insulted, and as for such thlro
rate power as Spain, those who dare
saw a good word for her are regarded
as traitors. The race of giants, which
once trod those halls, has passed away
and men of i.s meager calibers, as IL
ordinary walks of life, are in the as
tendency there. 1t is humiliatlng, bu'
a country seldom suffers malady llKe
this. which does not deserve it.

They Should be Recognized.

On last Tuesday evening there was
a republican mass meeting held in this
city which was largely predominated
by colored people who demanded the
right to send a colored delegate to the
st. Louis convention. Dodgers were
numerously circulated, signed by the
Vigilance Committee" and these
brought out large crowd. Willis NJ.
Carter is the person whose name met
with most favor. 1t is a little refresh
ing to see the colored people asserting
their manhood and demanding thel1
rights. Heretofore they have been
handled by the white men OF thell
party as so many sheep, without
thanks for the loyalty with which they
supported anyl and everybody those
white men chose to nominate. Ii they
are men, and we think many OF then
are, they will demand this recognition
as they should long ago have done.

Why the Government Pays Gold O1ly
for its Notes.

There are about $350,000, 600 of the
notes out called greenbacks not pay
able IN any specified currency.
We have out some $3.50, 000, 600 of the
Sherman notes. These were issued
under what is known as the Sherman
act, passed in 1890, which directed the
Government to buy 4,500,000 ounces of
silver each month. and pay for it by
an issue of the Governments notes
The notes we're payable on demand,
and the act provided that they might
be paid in either gold or silver dollars,
AS the Government preferred. But
the act also declared that it was the
settled policy of the Government to
keep its silver dollars and its gold dol
lars circulating upOn terms of equali-
ty. When these notes are brought to
the Treasury, and gold dollars are de-
manded for them, the government, if
1t refused to pay gold dollars and offer
ed silver dollars only, would be dis
examination between the two uufavOr-
aole to silver 1t would be the same
thing as for it to say it thought the
gold dollars more valuable than the
silver dollars; it would set this as an
example. and would. therefore, be a
violation of the provisions of the act,
which declared that it was the inten-
ton of the Government to keep each
OF its dollars circulating on par with
the other. The policy of paying these
notes in gold dollars, therefore, if gold
dollars wera demanded, was adopted,
and it seems impossible to doubt the
cree ~ the Governments position in
= suiyiuS upon that policy.

iyarllsle for President.

When we called attention to the
fact in our issue before the last that
Carlisle was the most available candI-
date the democrats could offer the
country, we spoke from deep sense
of duty to the party. Our feeble voice
NAV never be heard in the great up
roar into which the country is soon to
he launched. and no one may heed our
advice. but until the convention at
Chicago. If permitted voice, it shall
be raised in behalf of this man whom
above all others, the democrats could
unite upon. When were we upon the
eve of a convention before without a
candidate? When were the democrats
at sea before on so important a
question The talk of third term
for Mr.. Cleveland is twaddle, not be
cause ie is not greater now than ever
before, and not because he has not the
confidence of the business men of the
country more than ever, but because
third term candidate would be regard
ed as dangerous and grasping man,
and as yet no party can afford to pre-
sent one.
But Mr.. Carlisle meets every phase
of the case. Only radical free silver
men can object to him. and the
day has not yet come when this
country can elect free-silver
President. The best that can be
done is to give to both gold and
silver a place as money, at a ratio
as near their real value as can be, and
let neither drive the other out of ex-
istence. On such platform all could
stand, and for such man AS Carlisle
all can vote.

The New Election Law.

The Parker bill, which is now the
Election law Of Virginia, is the Walton
law amended so to meet the objections
that have been made to it.
The principal changes are: 1, A
special provision for voting for Elec
tors for President and Vice President
p, Prohibiting the transportation Of
the names on the official ballot, and 8
The abolition of the special constable
and the provision that one of the
Judges, to be selected by the three
Judges, shall assist the illiterate voter
just as the constable did.
All of the safeguards of the Walton
law are retained and those features
which proved objectional to some peo
pie were repealed.
With these changes our election laws
should no longer ne the subject of
criticism. But there are those who
would continue the warfare against
any election law Democratic Legis
lature passed, it matters not what are
its provisions.-ApponattoG Times.
