Jack's last propo i:tfon stumped me; so I decided to turn ih conversation into a different chan i:. Then I ventured to ask the colo !.!"s opinion In retird to municipal efTiIrs. especially with reference to the coming spring election. Rut Colonel Jick excused hlmseir. saying (hat he h.vl other engagements that would rre-t.-nt him from giving me the bene.'.t rf his views at that time, remarking ihit some other day would suit him htter. but that he would be pleased to communicate some thoughts on the mbj.ct to the public before the noml r.uirtg convention. Asked who was hl3 rhaiee for mayor, the co'cnel waved r. e off. saying that he was not ready to commit himself: he would prefer to rreence of the Tattle man. It la learn ed that she belonged to a family that has numerous connections In the im medlate vVrlnlty of our capital city. The death of Li lite Pauline occurred In New Jersey, where she had always lived. She was well and favorably known In the trust Paradise and her land women of Richmond rose to a sublime height to meet the emergency, With their carriages and wagons they helped to bring the wounded Into the city, and such soldiers as the military hospitals could not receive they made room for in their homes. Churches, too. were converted into emergency fame had even extended beyond the ; hospitals. But with all that they and confines of the land of shining sand and voracious mosqutoes. for she held the world's record as a - hutter , pro ducer, belns .a cow . of the . Holstein Fresian persuasion.- Peace .to her ashes and condolence to the" surviving rela tives. . It has been said that conversation is the art of talking so na to conceal one's thoughts. The same might be said of letter-writing as practiced by experts. For Instance there Is Grover Cleveland, who discovered the famous expression, "Innocuous desuetude," not to mention several other Important dis coveries that will prove a lasting boon to the human race, including, his dis covery of the duck-shooting grounds of eastern Carolina - ' But I am digressing from the sub ject of letter-writing, which was to be wait and see which candidate was the : the subject of a few remarks. Well. mon liberal in making loans to a de-i-rving cause. The density of Raleigh's population his been the subject of a great deal of comment lately. It has been said that, for the extent of surface covered, the population is denser than that of New rk city. Upon first blush it seems that it la a severe tax on the credulity to accept that statement: but remem bering that I have seen it stated that there are acres of wilderness In Greater New Tork and large areas ot r-arsh lands In Chicago, it does not a-pear to be such a great strain on the Imagination to believe that Raleigh I one of the most densely populated cities outside cf China. The trouble about Raleigh is that there is a great of city that la not In the city: hlch is not so much of a paradox as yu might suppose, when you consider that you can walk out of town and rt away from the policeman's belt without ever suspecting It if you do t happen to have a map 'of the city limits In your mind. Again, a stranger approaching Raleigh would Imagine klmsclf In the heart of the city by the ttrr.e he was within half a mile of the l.mtt separating the city from the ountry. These facta have been used as argu ments la favor of spreading the town aut so as to relieve the density, which l really cprresaive to contemplate In t'yl weather. : Nobody, you know, likes t think of being coopod up In an alr t'rht city unless he lives In a big city fr a fact, which we do not claim that RVetgh la at this writing, though we '-.tertaln great expectations on that 1'r.e when we expand enough to take In what rightly belongs to us. if any citizen of the United States whlch is "it" according to the latest congressional authority) has that art reduced to an exact science, that citl 7en is Grover Cleveland, who once twisted the British flon's tall with a few words that he placed on paper with his good goose quill. But. as I was about to pay. there is no one who has a better knowledge of the art of concealing his thoughts In writing than the fisherman of Buzzard's bay. And this brings me to remark that a -very striking example of this art was given to the public through the press the other day when a letter from the ex-sherlff to a Cincinnati editor was published. The editor had heard some talk about Mr. Cleveland being In danger of experiencing another stroke of presidential lightning, and he wanted to know how the old man felt on the subject. And bow should he find out except by asking? Well, he tried the experiment, nnd while the result may not have been what he wished, or even what he expected, the I public has no right to complain, for a finer example of the art I have been writing about wa never penned than the letter that the editor received. It was courteous to the last degree and the English--was elegant. -.-Of the pen man ship I cannot speak, having only seen a printed copy of the letter. What I was going to say was that after reading the letter the Cincinnati editor, nor anybody else, has the slightest the military authorities could do, the night of May 31st closed with many of our wounded soldiers lying by the road side between Seven Pines and Rich mond, while some lay in our parks or upon our sidewalks until beds could be found for them. Ahis, that was a dreadful time here in Richmond! But one good result of it was that the Confederate Govern ment went to work with five-fold more energy than before to provide hospital accommodations. And it' was not long before they were all needed. As for Lee, he soon mustered here the largest army the Confederacy ever had, and In about a month fell upon McClellan at Mechanlcsville and began that wonder ful series of attacks known in history as "the Seven Days' Battles." Thus we may faintly see what Seven Pines is to us; what relation it had to the defence of Richmond and how it led to movements of inestimable conse quence to the Confederacy. And . so we would have the battlefield made more and more accessible and attractive: have it moro and more studied and visited, not doubting that the emotions it will Inspire will be allko honorable to our humanity and patriotism.

THE COMPROMISE OF 1901. "Now, before I close, a word about the compromise." Much has been said about the settle ment of the railroad tax assessment cases in January, 1901. It has been claimed that the railroads agreed that, sections 50 and 51 of. the present Ma chinery Act might be enacted pro vided they were., ot -. enforced until 1D03; It Is claimed. that the railroads In now opposing-3 thfse sections are guilty of a breach ot faith. THIS CON TENTION IS WHOLLY WITHOUT FOUNDATION. The tax assessment cases were instituted ;by the railroads upon the contention that; the Machonery Act of 1899 and the. assessments made upon them In said Act imposed a value upon their property, .greater in propor tion to that imposed byi the assess apon the property of individual citizens. The cct of 1899 is the act which the rail roads were attacking and it was the act which the State was defending. Among other grievances, the railroads claimed that the citizen was assessed upon his real estate, once In four years, while the railroad . was assessed on theirs every year. ; When the case came to and end ifcwas agreed that the State would recommend to tlia General Assembly that the Machinery No. 66, SEABOARD Air Line Railway Short Line to principal cities of tha South and Southwest, Florida, Cuba, Texas.

The earliest mention of Seven Pines, so far as we- know, occurs In the rec ords of Henrico, 17S. when "Jos. Mayo, re n tie man." waa ordered to take a Hat of all the tltheablea from Corne lius "across ' to the Seven Pines and upward to the Chickahomlny Swamp and James river to the upper bounds of this county." One of the traditions of the origin of the name. Seven Pines, Is that seven pines once grew there from a common root, upon a farm which marked the Junction and tha Nine Mile Road. That Is not a very credible story, but there are no living witnesses to contradict It!

Act would be' changed so that tha phj-sical property of. the railroads (not included in rolling stock) would be as sessed for four years- at the same time that real estate was assessed. This was done to make the act of 1899 as nearly identical as, - possible in the method of assessment of the property of the citizen and the property of the! railroad. Nothing was. said about the ; but the act of 1809 was the act which j was . under fire, and this change was j the only change suggested. It was : made, but in addition to making, that j change an entirely, different method of j assessment of railroad property ,was introduced. No notice was given to the railroad companies of this fact and thy were not heard upon it; and they now find that instead of being as sessed under an act substantially like the act of 1S."9 with the provision that the assessment Is mde for four years like land, they And .themselves assesed under a -totally different law. They find that they are assessed not under the North Carolina law of 1899 with the modification aforesaid, but they are to be taxed under the Connecticut law at the highest possible valuation, while all other property In North Carolina Is to be assessed under the, old North Carolina system.
