Not Inflated by His Triumph.
Henry. taking tn. triumph very simply,
, as was his wont, and knowing his work
Tor the session done. quietly made his
way homeward that very day. striding
unconcernedly down Duke OF Gloucester
Street. chatting with a friend, his legs
clad In ouckskin as II for the frontier, his
saddle-bags and the reins Of his lean nag
slung Carefully over his arm.
The assembly had adopted Henry's dso-
laratfon OF rights, not his resolution of
disobedtence. and had softened O. little
| the language he would have used: but
its action seemed seditious enough to

II did little good TO send Virginians
home, however. IL the object was to
| check agitation. The whole manner OF
their life bred thought and concert Of
action Where men have leave to be in
| dividual, live separately and with a proud
self-respect, and yet are much at each
| others tables. often in vestry council
| together. constantly coming and going
talking and planning throughout all the
countryside, accustomed to form their
opinions In league. and yet express each

Independence: where there is the leisure
TO reflect, the habit of joint efforts in
business, the spirit to be social, and
abundant opportunity TO be frank withal.

views form themselves very confidently.
and as easily without assemblies as with
them.
Washington q Silent Observer.
Washington had taken no part in the
stormy scenes OF the House, but had sat
calmly apart rather. concerned and
thoughtful.
He was not easily caught by the ex-
| citement of a sudden agitation. He had
the soldiers steady habit OF self-posses-
sion in the presence of a crisis. and his
own way OF holding things at arms
length for scrutiny-''like a bishop at his
prayers" a wag said
He had a soldiers loyalty, too, and
slowness at rebellion. His thought. no
doubt. was with the conservatives. what
ever may have been the light that sprang
into his quiet eye when Henrys voice
rang out so like a clarion. calling Vir-
ginia to her standard: and he went home
upon the dissolution. to Join and aid his
neighbors in the slow discussion which
must shape affairs TO an issue.

SHIPPING RATES TO CUBA.
InNestiGntion by House Committee
Brings Our Little New.

Franklin B. Mooney, OF the New York
and Porto Rican Steamship Company
appearing before the House Shipping
Trust investigating committee yester-
day. denied the charge made by A. H
Bull. of the Bull Steamship Company
that he Mooney had proposed a pooling
of interests in the Porto Rican trade
He said that It was Bull who made this
proposal to him. not he to Bull. Mooney
testified that the probable reason for
the similarity In rates in the Porto
Ricsn trade was that the insular line
was constantly following the quotations
offered on traffic by his company.
Chester B. Kellogg. of New York. Of
the Monson Line. told the committee
that shippers in the Cuban trade get the
same rates from New York, Boston,
Baltimore. and other North Atlantic
ports to Cuba as do the shippers from
Mobile. New Orleans. and Galveston, and
ports on the Gulf Of Mexico.
