ALEssoN FROM DANvmLE.

The investigation into the affairs Of the
municipal offices OF tho city of Danvine
has brought forth an ugly cxhibit We
/ know nothing oC the matter except what

and we shah not go out of OFT way to

But wo would employ the incident TO il-
lustrato d point which we have from
time t. time eudeavorcl TO male.
10 appears from the reports that the
whole trouble grows ont OF slip-shod
way of conducting the business affairs
of the municipality. Things have been
permitted 90 take their eco rise from year
20 year. and it has been taken for granted
that am was moving along smoothly and
correctly fin the city's government and
now after years of neglect am inycstiga-
ton is made and the officers brought 10
book. The question which naturally sug-
costs itself is why should this invcsii2a-
ton have been deferred for so long a
time?
We have no sort OF doubt that if invos-
legations were made throughout the coun-
ties of Virginia. much the same condition
would Doe found TO exist in a number of
instances. The point which we would
make and which we have i'm previous ar
