Notes from the College.

The Messenger of Richmond College
for February is a very interesting num-
Der. A great part of the monthly is de-
voted TO the late Professor Harris, ID.
d.. Ii. D. There is an interesting bio
graphical sketch of him with charac-
ter sketches by Professor c. II. VIM
ston. Professor Mitchell Carol, Superin-
tendent-of- Public Schools w. K. Fox, Or.
G.. r. Hovey, and DR.. II. A. Topper
Abstracts of addresses made at the rune
raj are also printed. The Messenger also
contains the valedctory remarks OF re-
firing editor-in-chief, Mr.. waiter ernest
Gibson. Mr.. John o. Johnson, Is. A.
Osg,0 of the Phlologion Society, Is the
new editor in chief.
The following interesting paragraphs
are taken from the Messenger:
professor Mitchell, who is very en-
thusiastic student of history, Is succeed
ing wonderfully well in arousing a ike
shirt among the students. For the pur-
nose of carrying on this work, Protes-
sor Mitchell has suggested a trip 10 Eu-
rome this summer. He has thought the
trim out thoroughly, and has arranged
one that will be of inestimable value 10
any man. A sufficient number Of stu
dents to make the trip certainty have
signified their intention of going ana quite
a number of others are making ar
rangements to go if it shall be possible.
Having the unusual privilege Of the
benefits Of Professor MitchelPs wide
and extensive reading is far above the
cost of such trip.

SOUTHERN INDUSTRIES.

The Atlanta Constitution takes issue
with the Boston Transcript on the con-
tention of the latter that the cotton trade
of New England is growing at a much
faster rate than the cotton trade OF the
Southern States. In support OF It's claim
that the Transcript is wrong, the consul
tuition says that throughout the entire
Northeast there were only 100000 spindles
added TO the various cotton-factories du-
ring the twelve months ending Septem-
Der /. 1896. while in the South there were
no less than 10000 spindles added du-
ring the same period of time. The Con-
stitution states further that the takings
of the southern cotton-mills for the year
aggregated 10000 bales more than for the
year preceding, while the takings of the
eastern cotton-mills, including, of course,
those of the New England States, re-
vealed a shortage of 4S4026 bales during
the same period.
These facts would unquestionably APP
near to sustain the Constitution, and are
interesting. But it would be equally If
not more. interesting TO know how much
of the dividend earnings of the southern
cotton-mills remains at the South, and
how much of the product Of these mills
is directly marketed at the South.
Not long ago we heard good deal
about movement of northern milling
capital southwark, in order to be nearer
the field of supply; and we were told
that this movement was materializing to
a considerable extent. Every dollar Of
outside capital that is invested in south
ern industrial enterprises, and thus be-
comes the medium Of giving employment
to labor. is of benefit to the South, and
should be welcomed. Industrial enter
prizes at the South built up by northern
capital are infinitely better than no in
dustrial enterprises at all. They become
an element Of southern wealth and pros
perity, and a means of distributing
money. for which we should be thank
Jul. None the less, so long as the greater
part of the dividend earnings of south
ern manufacturing establishments goes
north-so long as the majority of the
stock in southern industrial corporations
is owned by n-residents-southern in
dustrial development will not be doing
the half for this section and her people
that IT ought to do. 1t will not be half
fulfilling its mission. This is point
at which southern capitalists in every
community should stick pin.

went 20 far as to charge General Anger
with defeating him for the presidency
by buying up his tSherman's) southern
delegates. Doubtless, Sherman told the
truth in this matter. but all the same
II will be somewhat awkward for Sher-
man and Ager TO have seats at the
same council table. Further. we op-
serve that Sherman has been putting
himself upon record as in favor OF de-
cidcd measures against Spain His posi-
ton may be all right, but 81 looks quite
odd for him TO be disclosing MS mana
when he Is so soon TO enter the Caoihet
and undertake to manage our country
diplomatic correspondence. However ne
is an imperturbable old fellow. ana can
not be "noored" by any such small thing
as a charge OF inconsistency. All inc
same. we dare say that the foreign d'p'o-
mats will amuse themselves very nuch
quoting Sherman upon sherman
In the opinion Of a majority OF MS
countrymen, Mr.. Mckinley has maue
mistake in selecting Sherman as Secre-
tary of State. And II the truth DC
known. we venture to say that MeNin-
lev regrets Il and did not wish TO 90
t. But courtesy almost compelled NC
Kinley TO offer his distinguished ieiio"-
citizen Of Ohio this place-proDaoV INC
only one he would have accepted; ana
then. too Mckinley had TO provide
berth for Mr. Hanna. Under these CIR
oumstances Mckinley had little choice
but TO offer Sherman the state portioho'
We predict that Mckinley VIII get as
sick OF Sherman as Harrison get OF
Blaine. Blaine was a milestone hans-
ing about Harrison's neck, ana prevent
ed Harrison from enjoying the presi-
dencv. And lust another such burden
sherman may prove TO be in Mckinney
Cabinet. Hanna would have been Tar
more useful man 10 Mckinley than Sher-
man is going 10 be, but all accounts say
that Hanna would have nothing but the
senatorship.
In view of Mr.. Sherman's vote upon
the Sanguilly resolutions, the country
will look for an aggressive policy from
him in our troubles with Spain me
business interests" have heretofore been
generally supposed TO be in FAVOR OF
very conservative policy, and the pusi-
ness interests" have usually controlled
Sherman. but now the two seem to be
far apart. This we think signihcant-
so much so that Sherman's management
NJ the State Department will be watched
with extraordinary concern.
Major Mckinley will. OF course out
line his policy in a general way IN ms
inaugural message. but to Secretary sher-
man will be left the management OF those
details of diplomacy which oftentimes de-
eide whether country shall go to war
or not.

OUR POSITION.

The Danville Register, In discussing
the question OF calling constitutional
convention, continues, we would fam
hope unintentionally, TO put the Dis
patch by implication in a false light
The line of the Registers comments
upon the Dispatches position questioning
the wisdom Of calling a convention AT
this time is calculated to produce the
impression that we believe there are no
statesmen left in Virginia. The Dis
patch has never said anything suscepti-
Bile of any such construction. Our posi-
ton is that we question whether under
present political conditions, we could
elect a convention composed of the best
men in the State.
The Register asks the Dispatch the
question whether It proposes to wait I'M
iii we grow some statesmen" We an
swer frankly, no. But we would wait
until il becomes clearer that we can
elect a convention composed Of the states
men we have already grown, and until
the statesmanship, wisdom, and patriot
ism of the Democratic party have ar
rived at some concert of opinion as TO
the vital changes that ought to be made
I'm our organic law.

A haze still surrounds the status OF our
Consul-G General at Habana. Takfng the
eouation of the various newspaper stories
from Habana and Washington touch
,ny the question OF his resignation
:, would seem that General Lee has re-
signed. probably under conditions but
that owing to pressure from President
cleveland and the Department Of state
he will continue at his post, for the pre-
sent. az least.
But however that may be, there is
M longer any doubt that, as a result OF
what we may term the Lee incident
the Cuban question has assumed an
acute phase that may develop into serious
combinations between this country ana
snain. Both Habana and Washington
correspondents, in stating that General
Lee had rendered his resignation, gave In
general terms. as reason for his action
that he was tired of and disgusted
with the milk-and-water policy OF the
administration in the matter OF
protecting in their rights citizens
Of the United States who were i'm
nrisoned in Cuba. On this issue Congress
would certainly seem with him. and that
IN q degree that no stroke Of diplomacy
on the part Of Mr.. Olney, as in the case
of the Cameron resolutions, can keep
from eliminating in summary demands
upon Spain.
The resolutions that, owing to the Lee
incident. have been introduced in Con-
gress. and the speeches thereon-such as
have been made by Senator Daniel and
others-show that the sentiment in favor
of bringing the Cuban question to a
crisis. and taking definite action has
nassed the stage of mere jingosm, which
utilized sympathy with the Cuban in
surgents as a provocation for its out
bursts. 1t is not sympathy with the in
sureents that has stirred Congress 10
take up the matter in the manner ano
form IL has taken IL up 1t is feeling
that in the refusal of the Spanish GOV
eminent to observe treaty stipulations in
respect of citizens of this country i'm
