Spain Has Bought the Ships.

LONDON, March 5 Further inquiries
confirm the report of the sale of the two
cruisers which the Armstrong; have
been building for Brazil to Spain. The
inquiries further show that represent
alive of the Gillian government has
eeen negotiation with representative
of the Spanish government for the sale
of the battleship O'Higgins, built by the
Armstrong; for Chill, and it is believed
that a deal is practically completed
whereby his splendid W. rjhip passes
into Spaiu's possession.
The ships which Spain secured in France
are two heavily armored coast defense YES
sells which Brazil ordered for service on the
River Platte which have been building at the
La Sayne Works at Havre.
Phe statement that the Amazonas, one of
the vessels Spain has purchased from Brazil,
has already left this country for Brazil, is in
correct. She is still at the Armstrong works.

SATURDAY EVENING, MAR. 5, 1883.

The LEGISLATURE adjourned, or
rather petered out, yesterday. A more
incompetent legislative body never as
sembled in Richmond. Ofcourse there
were some good men in it, but
both houses lacked leaders, and the ma
jority of the members were below
mediocre. But little legislation for the
good of the State, which was so earnest
ly expected, was enacted, while many
pernicious measures were rushed
through, and numbers of the members
seemed to vie with each other as to who
should do the most to bring reproach
upon Virgins; TO retard the develop
ment of her resources and to drive
capital from her borders. Such bills
as those looking to a reduction
in the membership of the legislature,
to the reduction of the members pay
and of reducing the criminal expenses
were promptly defeated, SIS were also
those which in any way might have
affected the revenue Of member or
of his next friend, while inpumerable
bills were passed which are calculated
to harass men engaged in many
branches OF business and to prevent
others from investiog money in State
whose legislature seemed bent on de-
stroying business generally. Instead
of reducing the expenditures, as was
expected OF them, they contented them
selves with curtailing the appropria-
tions for the hospitals and educational
institutions, the legal lights" in the
body taking great care that no bill
should pass that in any way might cur
tail their business or lop off fee. In
stead, -getter" bills were the
order OF the session, and the State was
raked over to find an industry that it
might be taxed. The legislature was q
log.rolling body in every sense of the
word, most of the members having
their pet schemes: and nearly every Of
fce in sight which could DE given to a
member was so bestowed. 1t seems
also that in many instances the mem
bers were so engrossed with other mat
tiers than their duties, that various bills,
after thew had been passed. mad to be
at once amended to correct their glar'
ing defects, while some of the slick
members succeeded in getting through
bills the purport of which was not dis
covered until after their passage. The
people at large may congratulate them
selves that new legislature does not
meet for two years, and all hope that
they may never look upon such another
as the last again.

THE LEGISLATURE.

As stated in yesterdays Gazette both
houses of the Virginia legislature ad-
ourned sine die yesterday evening.
The Governor passed upon the last bill
shortly after noon. No business was
transacted. The time was spent in
presentations and speeches. At 1874
the Governor informed the two houses
that he had no further messages for
them, except to wish them safe jour-
ney home, and they Immediately ad-
journed.
The Governor had worked night and
day to clear the bills that had been
passed. and he had examined and sign
ed several hundred in the last few
days.
As stated yesterday among the few
bills allowed to go by default was the
Front Royal dispensary bill. 1t would
have proven very interesting expert
ment, and many Of the legislators were
anxious TO see it become law for that
reason; but the temperance people of
Front Royal opposed it, and this,
coupled with a question of constitu-
tionelity, caused him TO refuse to
sign it.
Several railroad charters were among
those that failed to became laws for the
want Of the Governors signature.
The bulk of legislation at this session
was exceptionally heavy. There
were 594 bills introduced in the Senate
and over 100 in the House.

COAL FOR WARsHIPS.-It is develop
ed that Alabama coal operators have
been selling their product recently in
considerable quantities to the United
States government, for use in coaling
warships in the Gulf waters. The mine
operators do not give out the details;
but they say the recent tests made by
the government, which pronounced
Alabama coal up to the standard de.
manded by the Navy Department, have
placed them in position to bid on all
government contracts, and this they
propose hereafter to do, when the coal
is to be delivered in southern waters.
Their principal drawback at present is
in the lack OF proper facilities for de-
livering the coal at southern ports, but
these are to be arranged for at once.
Meanwhile it is known that the cruiser
Detroit, while in Mobile harbor re
Gently, coaled with Alabama coal, and
that since then heavy shipments have
been moving to Key West, Pensacola,
and Mobile. a northern firm, which
writes ira it expec to secure soon a
contract for furnishing $4,000 tons of
coal to the government, is seeking to
make heavy purchases from Alabama
operators for prompt delivery at south
ern ports. 1t says that Alabama's prox-
unity to the seat of operations of the
government ships causes it to make
these Inquiries. Terms have, it is I'M
derstood, been agreed upon to supply
the coal wanted;

Cuba for its censorship of the press.
Either their ignorance or their eflrontery
must be of abnormal proportions, as
every intelligent citizen of this country
knows that during the war between the
States, correspondents of foreign news
papers were refused passes to come
South and imprisoned for attempting
