The Hon. Patrick Walsh. OF Augusta,
.Ga.-an Irshman by birth-who died on
sunday. after three months illness had
become distinguished in political ahairs
as well as in journalism in that state. lie
he'd served Augusta as councilman, ana
in the Legislature and as Mayor, ana
under guberuatorial appointment he hhed
out an unexpired term (COlquitt's) In the
United States Senate. He was active IN
party affairs, and had been member ol
state and national Democratic conVen-
lions. His newspaper experience hau hau
a wide range: he had been compositor'
reporter. business manager, editor, ana
eeneral manager OF the Southern Asso-
ciated Press. lie owned a controlling IN
terest in the Augusta Chronicle though
we believe much of the detailed manage
ment Of the paper was entrusted to his
nephow. lie had no children.
Mr. Walsh's life was a busy and useful
one and he had made friends all over
the land With his abundant iron-gray
hair he presented a picturesque appear
ance I'm public assemblies. He possessed
remarkably cheerful disposition. and rare
" took a gloomy view Of any question.
He had reached the age Of 80, and with his
GOOD constitution and optimistic tempera-
ment he should have lived 10 very old
age; but he fell victim 10 oVerwork'
which produced paralysis. The mistake
he made. we suspect. was in engaging IN
political life. Notwithstanding the honors
he won. we fancy it would have been bet
ter for him had he stuck TO his news
paper work But latterly he carried upon
his shoulders not only the great RESPONSE
bilities Of a newspaper publisher, but
also those of an offce-holder and politi-
clan. Daily journalism is an exacting mis-
tress. and he who industricusiy attempts
TO divide his attention between 1T and
other pursuits is likely to be crushed be-
tween the two.
Mr.. Walsh had often visited Richmond,
and was known TO most of the newspaper
men here. Some Of them he numbered
among his intimate friends. The Augusta
Chronicle is his best monument and we
are glad to learn that it will be con-
tinued by his nephews.

TO get the greatest possible increase in

1t is an unfortunate fact that in most
hotels the best-known staircase is that
which is usually found alongside the ele-
vator. The elevator shaft acts as a chin
ney. making a great draft, and thus the
elevator and the stairs often are disabled
together when a fire occurs. In that
event the guests are apt to become hope

vantage of avenues of escape that are
open 10 them.

DR.. Menahem Hodara, physician OF
Constantinople. states that he has made
a discovery which, If actually as he de-
scribes IT, will bring JOY TO the hearts OF
,ranv middle-aged gentlemen who begin
10 show the wear and tear Of years.
The Doctor claims to have found
way by which hair may be made to grow
on ones bald head. His process is SIM
ole one. Briefly stated, the operation
consists in scarifying the surface OF the
scalu with an instrument which makes
a number Of shallow incisions This Is
done so that the lines of incision cross
each other. In other words. the BALD
headed mans head is ploughed' so 10
speak. and then the hair Is planted in
the burrows. From the experiments
which he has made DR.. IIodara has rea-
son TO believe that transplanted hair VIII
take root Just as twigs and other Vege-
tables do. Indeed, this fact has already
been demonstrated, quite accidentally, in
the case Of two patients whom the ply
slcian was treating for favus.
The hair which is TO be transplated is
first clipped properly with scissors and
then inserted i'm the missions. Strange TO
say, the capillary substance takes root
for itself. and in time will grow and
spread like a green bay tree. Hair. the
Doctor says, Is produced by the same
process which makes skin. Hitherto 1t
has been believed that It was mere lie
less product depending for its existence
on the fact that IT was extruded from
a papilla of skin at the bottom Of hair
follicle. But the recent discovery indi-
Gates that the hair in itself contains the
cells which enable it TO produce for itself
those accessories which are necessary 10
secure it in its site
AS we understand the operation, there
is no reason why one mans hair could
not be transferred TO the head OF an
other. In fact, 1t looks to US as if the
bald individual could call upon his
friends for contributions in the way Of
supernuous hair, and thereby obtain a
scalp as richly variegated as an au-
tumnal forest. Possibly the white locks
of some respected senior might be made
to gradually blend into tint of richest
red.
As yet we are not in position TO
verify DIR. Hodara's claims, and until
then we would urge all bald-headed men
TO keep their joy within bounds. a lead
ing New York specialist, who Is quite
familiar with scalp diseases, expresses
the opinion that the operation cannot be
successfully performed. He does not
think human hair has, in itself, the pow
er of initiating growth.

Wilmington. N. c.. March IL. 1871
fhn Editor of the Diapatch.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
II IL to be hoped that you may be sue
cessful in getting earlier train scheduies
out OF Virginia cities. especially out OF
your own enterpris!ng place. Many VIZ
einians are now residing I'm North caro-
linn and other States. neighbors to the
Old Dominion, and we wish 10 see our
old beloved and familiar Virginia papers.
I'ness we can get these papers before
the news gets too old, we shall gradually
dron off from them and thus, little by
little become alienated from the grand
old state because we cannot keep In
tonch with 1t. This IS the sentimental
,t1o ~ n VIRGINIA.
II happens 10 be both the sentimental
and business side OF the question, too.
The train that is held back late In the
morning hampers the drummer az wen
as the newspaper publisher. The drum
mer ought to be going from store 10
store soliciting orders, n hundred miles
from here at the hour when some OF our
important morning passenger trains
are iust leaving the city. The best hours
Of the day are sacrificed by him. waiting
for his train 10 start. or in travel.
All that Richmond asks IS that 1t be
given as good schedules as the majority
of cities of our class have. We don't ex-
pect to be put ahead OF our competitors;
but we do think 1t is n great hardship
that we cannot have an even start with
them. That much the largest tax-paying
community I'm Virginia may surely ask
without being considered unreasonable.
Richmond's merchants and manufac-
turers have become very much interest
ed. concerned indeed in this question OF
fair schedules. and will be heard from In
due season. What is more. we are going
70 have the sympathy and help OF thou
sands of country people. The farmers
and country merchants are our fellow SUI
rerers They are entitled to get their
mails much earlier than they do. In
other rural communities like situated,
morning papers are distributed by break
fast time. Why should not the country
neople in this section Of Virginia be as
well treated by the railroad companies as
other country people are? Are local in
terests to be subordinated forever to the
interests Of through freights and fast
mails? We hope not. Virginia, whlch
has been so generous in her dealings with
railroad companies, is entitled to expect
more consideration shown her many com
,nunities that are now victims Of the late
going morning mails.
