Thirh Assistant Postmaster Gen? eral Madden has introduced an inno? vation in the postoflice department which promises to be the most popu? lar thing of his administration, lt is the issuance of stamps in book form at so small an advance in cos) that the public will gladly pay tht difference in exchange for the greal convenience it affords. The book' will be ready in the next month oi BO. Among thu many things which th< British government provides for iti soldiers are blank forms for a will According to Harper's Weekly, "the war office supplies every soldier thai goes to the front with three blanl forms of wills?the first for the mai who wishes to leave all his propcrt* to one person; the second for thosi who wish to bequeath legacies ti several persous, and the third for nsi of married soldiers like most ot lie people, usually neglects to make hil will until the very last moment, and frequently waits until wounded oi dying upon the field. It is said thal formerly the men would scribble theil will in a few words on some stray bit of paper or on the inside ol a hel? met, the lid of a cartridge box, ru perhaps on a stone lying near by.' Tbs idea is a good one, and thc Philadelphia Medical Journal ?ug gests that "if hospitals and emer? gency physicians, ai well as loldien, were provided with such bianka, they might prove of great convinieaee in many cases of emergency and severe illneis, and legal complications might many times be avoided by their nie." The Virginia Telephone and Telegraph Company. There is now pending in the Hen ate of Virginia, a bill introduce.! by Senator Sandi, of Richmond, to in? corporate The Virginia Telephone and Telegraph Company, which pro? poses to build and operate telephone lines into every County in the State. The corporators are Borne of the most reputable business men in Virginia, Col. John B. Purcell, R. S. Rosher, 8. W. Traven, Hon. J. Taylor Elly son and Judge George L. Christian, ot Richmond; Judge John D. Horse ley, of Lynchburg, and R. E. Byrd, of Winchester. The bill provides that the Company "may construct and acquire, by lease, purchase or otherwise, and maintain and operate telephone and telegraph linet, or either, with all necessary fixtures and appliances, in, under and along the streets, alleys, highways, public works and parks, and through, across or under the waters of this State, in any city, town or county, in the State of Virginia, subject only to the fol? lowing conditions?namely: That tlie ordinary use of such streets, high? ways, works anil waters be not there? by obstructed, and that the said Company shall be subject to reason? able regulations by the corporate authorities of any city or town as to the use of streets and alleys, and in respect to the location and proper maintenance of such lines of tele? phone or telegraph within the limits of such city or town." It is further proposed that in the event the Company and any city or town disagree as to what are reason? able rules and regulations, that a petition may be filed in the City Court, or the court having jurisdic? tion over .tim town, to determine the question with a right of appeal to either party. These provisions in the bill are opposed by the city of Richmond, and a number of other cities and towns in the State, which claim that the cities and towns in the State should have the absolute power to determine. First, whether the company will be permitted to enter the city or town upon any conditions, and Secoud, to prescribe such condi? tions, rules and regulations as they please, without -any power vested anywhere to change or alter such terms, no matter how unjust, un? reasonable and prohibitive. It seems to us that this position is untenable in any light we may view it, and that such action will be put? ting the breaks on the progress of public improvements, rather than facilitating its march. The long distance telephone is a boon to any community, often saving valuable time and great expense. Tennessee, South Carolina, Ohio, Kansas, Arkansas, Texas, and a number of other States, have adopt? ed in their code of general laws the privileges sought by the charter of this Company, and Virginia should have a general statute of the same character. We need only look across our border into Tennessee to see the great advantages which our neigh? bor is having under her liberal laws. Every important city and town is rapidly being connected by long distance phones with the great South and Southwest. A counection can now be made as far Southwest as Galveston, Texas, and they are in communication with all the great cities ot the South Mississippi Valley. The cities of Virginia are not thc State of Virginia, and have no mort right to arrogate to themselves thc absolute right to control their high ways than the counties have to con trol theirs. The State is supreme and she is trustee for all her people. The greatest good to the gteatesl uumber is the the principle which should prevail. Tbe whole State will be greatly benefitted by the con? struction of the lines proposed bj this Company, and it appeals witl great force to the people of the mia and remote districts. There is n. doubt about the good faith of tin corporators, besides being men of tin highest character whom Virginian* have been proud to trust. The bil contains the following: "The said Company shall not have the benefit of this charter unless tin said Company shall, within ninetj days from the passage of this act, deposit with the Treasurer of the State of Virginia, One Hundred Thousand ($100,000.00) Dollars o the bond ol the State of Virginia, is? sued under the Acts of 1891 ant 1892, or Acts amendatory thereof commonly called century bonds.which are to be forfeited to the State ol Virginia if the laid Company shal not, at tba ead of three years fron the passage of this act, establish either by its own linet or by arrange menti with other lines, a telephone syitem which will afford co rn in ii ni ca? tion between avery Couaty in tht 8tate of Virginia." It will thus ba leen that the Com pauy una di business. There is every resson why the members of the Gen? eral Assembly outside of the cities should vote for the measure, and no good reason why tbe city members shonhl not. If the Company is only permitted to enter the cities and large towns upon unreasonable and very costly terms, the result will be to make the operation of the system dearer to the country districts that wonld have not only to pay tolls, but in addition pay enough to make up for the unreasonable exactions made upon it by the cities and larger lowns. We believe we voice the \vi-,h<-8 of a vast majority of the people of this section, in urging that thc Company be granted the charter asked for. Dr. Bull'.

Ix thc last issue of the Jonesville Virginian appeals thc following paragraph: The "Sleinpses" have downed Walker and Blankenship ami downed them badly. Mr. Will Slemp has been appointed Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue to succeed Bent Kilbourn, icsigtied. The appoint* ment is a direct and open-handed slap square in the faces of jinneral jcems and kernul george. We sre glad to state that the most deserving and the best man has won. We are also glad to state that jeeuis and george have lost. Col. Slemp de? serves h pension at the hands of the white republicans of thc 9th Cob gressional District for so quietly and snugly placing jim and georgs OB the cooling board ol "has beens." The appointment of Will Slemp sounds the death knell to the political aspi? rations and hopes of both the jinneral and kernul and brings to thc front Campbell Slemp, Phil Strother and -Jim Browning?men who are Repub? licans from sake of principle and not "for revenue only."

At no itpewrilers ire made in Spain, Ihe log duly seems lo have lieen imposed for thc purpo.se of heading off tlie use of American typewriters in Spain, as they arc almost the only one yet intro? duced in that country. The new tariff has douliled the duty on parratiue wax nnd lubricating oils, which has shut out American trade in the former and crippled it in the latter.
