War News Fifty Years Ago
(From the Richmond plspateh, Dec .. 1se4)

There comes report that up to night before
last General Grant had been reinforced by two
corps from the Valley, believed be the Fifth
and Sixth Corps OF the United States Army, and
1t was confidently expected that, having g.
ceeded on yesterday to make an attack but
such an attack did not materialize. although the
Confederate forces were just ready for it.
There Is a. great scarcity of official informa-
tlon from the War Department of the Confed-
crate government, but If a semoficial report
that comes to US through gentleman just from
the Petersburg front proves to be correct,
big battle may be expected at any moment.
This gentleman reports that the enemy has
thrown a force across the James River from the
north to the south side and effected landing
between Fort Howlett and Drewrys Bluff.
There is no official information either to affirm
or to contradict this statement. but on the face
of 1t there Is much FEASIBILITY, and 1t seems to
mean big fight within the next two days.
During the most of yesterday the sound of
cannon reached the ears of all Of the citizens
of Richmond, but it turned out that the firing
was was nothing more than the Smelling OF Buffers
south side OF the James River.
With the exception of some rather vigorous
cannonading on the lines just immediately south
occurred on the Petersburg front yesterday
Governor Brown, of Georgia. who has con-
stituted himself the commander-n- chief Of all
Of the Georgia forces to oppose Sherman. has
established his headquarters at Macon which
good town is clear of Yankees. From there the
Governor has issued vigorous proclamation
which proves that he is not afraid of Sherman
and his cohorts.
Judge Holt declined Lincolns profter of the
attorney generalship of the United States and
James Speed. renegade from Kentucky has
been offered the place. It remains to be seen
If he gets there with the consent of the United
States Senate.
During recent printers strike in Boston,
says the Boston Transcript n copy Of which has
gotten through the lines, tho venerable Ma
thaniel Willis. who began to set type In 1890,
and who published paper In Richmond. Va,
sNty-odd years ago, called the Transcript
office and offered his services. The same were
accepted, and the old is at the case and
doing mighty fine work"
The House of Delegates OF the Virginia GEN
eral Assembly called to order yesterday
morning by Speaker Hugh q. shefrey The dis
gusted Speaker was sure, after overlooking the
House, that quorum was not present but all
the same, he called for the reading of the Gov
ernor's message requiring the extraordinary
session of the House. The same was read by
the clerk. and then there was a roll call of the
members which showed that considerably less
than quorum was present. The House then
took recess to await the coming of delayed
delegates. They may all get there in time to
draw their diem. Yea, doubtless

The Advance of the Allies

to be shifted to Poland, and these reinforce

Won Iiindenburg's dramatic counterattack and
the fall or investment Of Lodz.
Shortly before the British army in Bel
gium and Northern France had been strength
ened substantially, and the French had
brought up new levies. Now, apparently.
there is an advance in many parts of the al
lied line. One of it's most important pur-
poses, it may be assumed, is to push the Ger
mans back across their own frontier, or, If
that be not feasible to drive them far rs
may be from French soil. Just now the Ger
mans are living in part on their enemies and
that is conducive among the allies neither to
economic efficiency nor to military morale.

Following a Good Example

IN ECISION by the faculty of the University
- of Virginia that the university football
eleven hereafter shall not play on any cave
lite own home grounds or those of its oppon-
ent-a general rule to which the annual Viz
slnia-North Carolina game in Richmond is
made the only exception emulates
the example Of other large institutions os
learning throughout the country.
The purpose. of course, is to divest the
game SO far as is possible, Of the commercial
spirit and increase its measure of true sports
manship. Football, in the view of the fac
ulty, is becoming much too large part Of
college life-of the life not alone of members
of the eleven, but of the body Of the students
as well.
Reform in such case is an excellent thing.
Football furnishes a spectacle that stirs the
blood. and il is. comforting to Virginian pride
to see the university excel In the sport, but,
after all, it scarcely embodies quite much
of the purpose for which a boy is sent to
college as some of us once thought 1T did.
Yale, Harvard, all the great institutions
of the North and East, play their games with
their rivals on college gridirons and diamonds.
Virginia does we'll. in this matter at any
rate, to follow in their footsteps.

New Ground of Marriage AnnuIment

Marriage is triangular contract, to which
the state is the third party. The law con-
ceives that the state has special and pecu-

on which the modern state is established

possible consequence Of insane offspring

Ishon, combined with the question of conceal
