MARTIAL SPIRIT OF
VIRGINIA AGAIN AROUSED.

AS will be seen by dispatch from
Richmond elsewhere in the Gazette,
the Old Dominion is ready to respond
to the call to arms. Members of the
military companies throughout the
state are notifying the general officers
that they are ready to proceed to
Mexico at the call of the President,
and are apparently as anxious to go
forth in defense Of their country as
were their progenitors in the days of
Washington, again in 1912, in 1886
when Mexico had to be taught a les
son, in 1861, when states rights were
about to be trampled upon and the
sovereignty of Old Dominion was
menaced and in 1898, when the United
States could bear with the arrogance
Ct Spain no longer.
Preparations are being made by the
government by which at least three
transports will be brought to New
port News and kept in readiness TO
carry Virginia's quota ITO the scene of
carnage.
All regret that another brush with
Mexico seems imminent. Since the
brief conflict during the latter part of
the forties the United States and Mex
leo have been on the best of terms.
Santa Anna was, of course sore so
long as he lived, but after he had
passed from earthly scenes everything
went on serenely.
When Meico was mcnaced during
our civil war by Louis Napoleon who
placed Macmillan upon the throne OF
the sister republic, President Lincoln
sent earnest protests against the
procedure. The United States let il
be known that when peace fhoule
again be in evidence the French would
be driven out of Mexico. a popular
upheaval, however, prevented clast
between this country and France, a;
Macmillan was captured and eNecu
ted by the Mexicans. Louis Napoleon
made no attempt to rescue the EN-,
peror of his making, not for fear o
the Mexicans, but Of the American
eagle under whose wings the smalle
republics nestle when in trouble.

DANGEROUS PAsTIME

From the time the revolving doors

Of this city attention has been called
to the danger Of children amusing
themselves by setting the doors spin

ions brought such diversions to close,
but after short time children, most
ly those going to or returning from
the publis schools, have stopped for
the purpose of setting the, doors in
motion. A few days ago a lady of this
city was painfully and seriously :. in

about to enter the postoffice building

sons guilty OF misdemeanors in the

Commissioner. 1t is hoped he will not
be compelled to sit in judgment upon
the youngsters, most of whom are per-
sonally acquainted with him; although
if the practice described above is per
sisted in, he will, of course, be COM
PEELED TO do his duty as a government
official. 1t is also hoped parents will
read the above with interest, as :neir
children are liable to serious il ,ury,
sooner or later, if they continue the
dangerous diversion.
