SATURDAY EVENING. JULY 8. 1901.

In CHANGING over valuable little
volume upon the history OF the conS'i-
tution OF Virginia by Miss Margaret
Vowel Smith of this city, our eyes
struck the following in the preface:
.'For Just experience tells, in every soil,
That those that think must govern those
that toll;
And ali that freedoms highest aims can
reach
Ia but TO Law proportioned loads on each"
There are many practical thoughts
expressed in poetry. 1t is not all In
spired. but some of the most rock
ribbed truths ever uttered have flowed
through the poetic vein--truths from
which the world In nearly six thousand
years has been unable to shake oil. The
lines quoted above afford a notable
illustration, and in these days OF dead
locks, tie-ups, wrsngles, red republican
ism. despotic governments mssquerad-
ing az republics and the thousand and
one Inconsistencies and paradoxes
which are bewildering and disgusting
TO unambitious and conservative peo'
ole, the time comes when o solemn
truth is reproduced as an admonition
to reckless and unthinkiDg generations.
That every man is not born to rule 10
q patent fact to any observant soul.
Nature has not qualified all alike.
While the writer Of the Declaration
OF Independence meant In GER
tain sense that all men are born
free and equal, his own keen inte'-
lect and observation must have made
it plain to him that all are not endowed
equally mentally or physically, and that
each is fitted for certain station in life,
intended by the Creator. 1t is natures
fiat, immutable, all the denagogery OF
the world to the contrary notwith-
standing. But there Is thirst for
power, especially in republics, where
agitstors are ever blowing bubbles before
the populace, and endeavorlDg to make
them dissatisfied with humble missions
by tanning foolish conceits into flames.
The history of every country, every
State and every city abounds in facts
which could be quoted to prove that ell
men are not endowed with powers
which qualify them for Lawmakers nor
leaders Of men, and with ell our boosted
political principles many sad pictures al 9
presented by men In psoitions for which
they are not fitted, and consequently
burdens are by no means proportioDed
to all alike and no little harm results.
The present condition Of the State OF
Virginia is an object lesson to us all. A
code containing many unfair laws ez-
ists which is a serious burden to the
great majority OF honest and indus.
trious persons-lsws framed for the
benefit of the few and in most cases by
men who were never intended for legisla-
tive halls; hence old Virginia has had
her menageries more than once. The
gentlemen composing the present con-
veution-certsinly the bulk Of them
are thinking men, and If they will
drink 10 the sentiment In the lines
above and carry it out they will prove
oonclusively that their credentials are
from the Creator as we'll as from their
fellow-bein0s.

GEN. PAYNE SELLS HIS HOME
Mr.. Hugh Hamilton has purchased the
house and lot OF Gen. VIM. II. Payne
in Warrenton. While we are rejoiced
to have the Hsmiltons as neighbors,
vet 1t IL not without q tinge
OF sadness that we see this place pass
ont of the possession OF those who have
made 1t the scene OF unbonnded hos.
pitality. The Paynes have contributed
more than any other family to the repu-
tation Warrenton enjoyed in years past
as the centre Of gsyety and cultivated
society. The entertainments they gave
were irequented by people ell over the
State and out of 1t. They brought az
many people to Warrenton to spend
the summer as visitors as now come
here to board. This was the last house
that kept up "the routs" in Wsrrenton
like those OF which Thackery wrote,
and we are sorry that its walls will no
longer echo to the voices OF those who
in other days made it resound with
laughter and merry making.-lWar'
