READING THE WEEKL1Es.

The Buena Vista Times thinks there
is much more good roads talk in the
papers than we have observed, and
asks whether we read our county ex-
changes as they come in to find out
the facts DO we? We should like TO
know how we could ever Judge the
real sentiment of the people of the
state if we did not. Can we sit here
in Richmond and know what the peo-
pie of Franklin or Nansemond or
Giles are thinking? Can we hope to
tell how the counties stand on the
tan question or the good roads cues-
| tion, or any other question, unless we
read what the rural editors say on
these subjects?
There can he no moro mistaken idea

NOT TO WARP HISTORY.

The State of West Virginia unveiled
a statue of Francis Harrison Pierpont
in the Federal Hall of Fame on satur-
day The state had perfect right to
do this. and would have had an equal
right to place the statue of any of it's
citizens in the same niche. If West.
Virginia thinks Governor Pierpont was
one of its greatest citizens, it has
right to its opinion, which none can
gainsay.
Pierpont, however, reference was made
to the, fact that he was a "wnr Govern
or of Virginia" The meaning of this
term is perfectly clear to all those who
recall the history of the troubled times
in which Plerpont lived. and its APP

when 1T came to turning their mother
tongue into swear words, they cannot
be compared with their desccn-
dants of to-day. Thus another classic
idol Is overthrown and another dream
Is shattered.
The famous Curse tablets" Of one OF
the Northern universities have settled
this disputed point to the satisfaction
OF all readers These tablets, 1t APP
pears, were indited sometime before
the beginning or the Christian Era by
ono Saliva Of Rome, and were inscrib-
ed on lead. Saliva, 1t seems, made a
profession OF expert swearing, and she
would consign anybody to small
place for small fee. Her chief mean
tations were addressed to Proserplna,
who was unfortunate enough to be
| the devils wife, and with whom Sal
via thought herself to have some par
ticular Influence.
One OF these tablets has just been
| translated by an aspiring young
Latinist of Baltimore for the first
| time, and 1t will be disappointing ia
| those who looked for something sui
/ phurous from the ancient world. Here
| are some of these most striking
! things which Saliva, for Fee. wished
done to Plotios, probably a citizen OF
| Rome at the time:
May he not be able by his own de-
vices to avoid this fate. Mayst thou
| Proserpna. hand him over to the
| auaritan, terticu and daily fevers.
| Mayst thou summon the three headed
dog and send him to tear out his
heart. l give thee the car. lips
| and nostris, nose, tongue and teeth
| of Plotios. May he not be able TO
speak at all. May he miserably
| depart this life, may he miserably fan
asunder: may he be unable to under
! stand anything, and may he not be
| able to think at all.
/ These are not very generous wishes
| for the welfare Of Plotios. but they
are certainly not striking in their
awfulness. Any one can read them
| without blushing or trembling for the
-~afety Of SALIVA II she flung her re-
marks at Plotios in the streets. SAL
via was, perhaps. an expert, and she
doubtless wished to give her patron
his moneys worth, but her vocabulary
was limited and her language was
not profane This is worth noting
We boast great deal of the progress
of Christianity and we pride ourselves
upon the progress Of the race; but here
is concrete proof that in swearing, al
least, the ancients were not as vile, as
profane, as base as their Christian de-
scendants.

n JORNSON,S death last week serves
X to recall the now apparently for
ID gotten fact that on one melnora-
BILE occasion he challenged the
late King Oscar of sweden to fight
duel-the only case in modern times of
q reigning sovereign receiving cartel
from one of his subjects. The matter
may be said TO have been brought
about through a BIT of literary jeal-
ousy and rivalry. King Oscar, II viii
be remembered, had literary preten-
sions OF no mean order, and figured
extensively as poet author and play
wright just in the same manner as
Biornson The latter. having learned
that His Majesty had criticized in a
most merciless and unsparing manner

Fallit" ca Bankruptcy)-imm
few into great rage. Regarding II.
not in the light of an expression of
opinion by his sovereign but merely
as a piece of envy on the part of a
Jealous and soured rival, he at once
challenged the King TO fight duel
and to grant him satisfaction on the
field of honor. Oscar was very demo
cratic, simple and UNAFFECTED. save in
literary matters. This, however, was
more than he could stand, and accord
ingly he issued orders for the prosecu-
tion of BjornsdD on charge of lese
majestic.
Rather than face the penalties pro-
vided by statute for an offense OF this
kind, the irascible Norwegian play
wright preferred to seek refuge abroad,
coming the responsible editor and pub
Usher of a Norwegian paper published
| at st. Petersburg. calling for the
emancipation of Norway from the

Stockholm.
In course of time he became aware
that If the paper was tolerated at St.
a nr al
there. 1t was solely on the understand
ing that any republic established In
Norway should be under Muscovite
suzerainty This cooled his ardor. Tho
Oscar, who was d-hearted man,
and who realized that Bjornson was
one of the literary glorles Of his double
| Kingdom, caused all charges against
| him to return to NORWAY.
Shortly afterwards Oscar, OH the oc-
CASTOR of one OF his periodical visits

leading choral society OF the city--a
society exclusively masculine, and in
