a Fixed Fact. ____
[From Ike Norfolk Host of tbs 8th.]
Saturday evening, a called meeting of the d'rec- j
tors aud members ol the Norfolk Merc haul sand Me
dmn c's Exchange, at their reo.us, was be d for the ,
purpose of receiving Pro|ms.tw..s and ex[d»nat.ons .
com Co! (1. I- Thompson, President of the NOitolIt ,
and St Nazsriu Steam Navigation t ompany, for tho .
e„rl\ cstubl shutout of the line, in accord.njm w h
tho charter of the company granted by the
tmeonthe ISth of Irecember, lSb5. to . t.eorgo
C^tcr explained the object ol the meeting to be
tor the purpose of hearty and zealous co operation ,
in f ir.vard ng the pnposed enterprise. f ol. Tliomi -
»n wls mtreduced 10 the mootin' . He said that ho
had Ucn induced to embark in this enterprise by
W Ballard Preston, to whom the legislature had
granted a charter in ISM. for the purpose of sccu
,,ug direct trade between this city •udJjL Nazane,
in France, ho participated iu the desire^ Mr I res
ton and at once proceeded to work, and was happy
to stole that the legislature had granted to the or
ganization a very liberal charter—increasing its cap- i
ital sto k and privileges. He whs prepared to state
that the organization was so far matured, that all
that was required troni Norfolk and her merchants,
w as % Leartv anJ zealous co-operation iu the enter
prise He was followed in his remarks by Doctor
stuait (Iwynn, Maiiagiug Director of tho celebrated
Ifjnda'l Steam Construction Company. Mr Owynn
set forth tho feasibility of the scheme and its im
mense advantages to Norfolk, which is selected as
the in-point of location in preference to any
other seaport iu the United States. He
urged that it was of tho Brat importance that
a marine and sectional dry dock, with foundries and
ship yards attached, should lie constructed here.—
Ho was followed by Captain Henry Kandall. tho in
ventor or the new method of construe tips? and build
inir oof.in steamship:4. The Captain submitted h»s
plans, drawings and models, and lully explained
their advantages of currying capacity, light dratr,
treat strength and high rate of s|a»ed. to a sailor
the advantages of his models were apparent at a
glance. One great improvement which lia men
tioned m in securing longitudinal resistance. This
was secured by means’ of a strengthening arch fore
and aft connecting with the frame by diagonal iron
braces and curnster steps. The peculiarity of this
model was that the vossid bad good liearings, which
throw the water from the wheel as »bo ran, aud
each revolution thereof, struck iu lirm water, the
dead water parsing outside of the peak mauu by her
prow. The plaus submitted were of the following
dimensions: length, 4S0 leet; breadth, CO feet, over
all, SB feet; tonnage. 0,700, w ith a rapacity ol ac
commodating 3 U00 passengers, each steamer to be
Blted with two Lighthall's improved wariuc engines
of 3 000 horse power. B0 im h cylinder, 27 feet stroke,
and 3 feet crank motion, With t||i» model aud macInn
ery he staled that he would pledge his mofcSsiou.il
reputation that the vessel could make the trip from
th.s port to St, Nazaire in eight days, and he
could, with ease, accomplish the round trip, load
aud discharge, inside ol thirty days. All that stood
in the way of the building of these ships, was u
place where lumber, lubor and material wore availa
ble- auil he knew uo belter place than this vicinity,
which possessed all these advantages. They had
machinery which was capable of bending all their
breast hooks, kuecs. Ac., required. As tho patentee
of these machines Tor the construction or ocean
steamers he felt assured that all he premised for
. 1 1.no ore now
running, built upou bis plans, which have fully
proved all he had said.
Hr. I*. C. Walker, after a few practical remarks,
moved that a 00011111111*0 of three bo appointed by
the Chair, to lender the gentleman who had addressed
the meeting their hearty and zealous co-operation in
all m-a.rn.es having for their object the advance
ment of the interests of Norfolk. The motion
was unauiruuulsy carried, and . tho following
gentlemen viz; l». C. Walker, Jas. Higgs and Henry
Kimberley, wore appointed a committee to dratt a
series of resolutions in accordance with the motion
offered. \Y hen this committee retired. Col. William
Lamb being called tor, stated that he had no conti
nence iu resolutions, and preferred action. He was
in earnest, and cordially desired to co-operate and
lend his humble aid to any eHtarurist* that would de
velope the advantages, and secure the interests of
Norfolk lie advised that instead of the city sacri
tieme the valuable property of the tobacco wure
l,ou-e and wharf, that the city council should tendei
,t. fur a term of years, to the lirst company* which
should establish a traus-atlantic hue of steamers
from this port to Europe. The committee appointed
to draft a series of resolutions returned and submit
ted the following, which were unanimously adopted.
V Hesolved, That we have listened with pleasure to
the remarks this evening by Culouel Thompson. Dr.
Uwynn and Capt. Kundall. relative to the establish
in ul of a steamship lino between this port ami St.
Xazaric. France, aud wo trust that in the language
of Capt. Samuel Sneedeu they will '* art."
Resolved, That we, the members of the Merchant’s
and Mechanic’s Exchange of Norfolk, do hereby
plcdg** to Col. Thompson aud his associates, our
hearty and energetic co-operation in tlieir efforts to
carry into effect said euterprize, and will, to the ex
tent of our ability, sustain them, so that their efforts
will be more successful.
Resolved That we consider the construction or
ship.yards, miebiue shojis, sectional and dry docks
iu the city, a matter of the very highest importance
to oar commercial Interests, aud that we cordially
invite* Dr. (Jwynu and his associates to a seat in our
in dst hereby pledging ourselves to aid and second
his and their efforts in their behalf, iu every way in
our power.
Resolved, That the importance of these ami other
•enterprizes demands the manifestation, on the part

Several gentlemen addressed the meeting, congra
tulating the citizens and the Hoard of Exchange
upon the certain prospects of success of the project
of the long-talked-of direct trade with Europe.—
Colonel William Lamb, after a b’.ief address upon
the prospect of direct trade and its advantages, of
fered the following resolntion, which was unani
mously adopted.
Re 1 >lved. That the Board of Directors of the Mer

and wharf, owned by the city be tendered, free of

estubl.shes a line of steamers, traus-Atlantic, from
this port to Europe.
Upon motion, the meeting adjourned.
American people is tlic weakness of the marriage
t e. We sec it stated that Chicago boasts two hun
dred and seventy-live divorces ill the year that is
past. We would bo glad to know what per centage
i hat »um bears to the marriages.
• Of these, one hundred ami seventy-seven w ere ap
plied for by wives, whoso grounds of grievnuce
against their husbauds were: drunkenness in fifty of
the cases, desertion and crucify, four; drunkenness
aud cruelty, forty-four; adultery, eight; drunken
ness, desertion, cruelty and adultery combined, two;
bigamy, two; other causes, two. Of the eutire
number of divorces grauted, ninety-eight were up
pited for by husbands, w hose grounds of grievance
against their wives were: adultery in fifty-eight of
the cases; desertion, twenty; drunkenness, eight
tit-u liigauiv. oue; other causes, one.’
In these statistics we find forty-four, or twenty-five
per cent, of all the applications by w ives were based
on the cruelty of their husbands' while iu the case
of the applications by husbauds, fifty-eight out ot
ninety-eight, or nearly sixty per cent, of the cases
were for adultery. " ill not some logical Garrison,
whose occuimtiou of uhusing slaveholders is uow

A PaTKNT Pl'Li'iT.—Some years ago, according to
the London Punch, a benevolent and ingenious Lug
lishuiaa coutiived au excellent article iu this line, it
is to be introduced into this country.
It was proposed that the patent pulpit be built in
the usual style, but suspended over the preacher’s
head was to" be au apparatus something iu shape
like a caudle extinguisher. Thia w as to desceud so as,
in exactly fifteen minutes, to completely extinguish
the clergyman, and of course his sermon could never
exceed thut jieriod iu duration. Light minutes after
the sermou had commenced a loud premature snap
or click was to uiioiince the commencement of the
extinguisher's descent, and it is slated that upou sev
ers! private trials, no clergv man could be fouud who
had iba ueive to continue his seiuioii after hearing
th's snap or click, over throe minutes longer, such
wan the feat in his mind that his light would lie hidden
under the suspended bushel.
Mile. Kargueil, who plsvs one of the ladies in “La
Famille Benoitou," is made to exclaim. -Ah' simple
attire of my early youth, what is now become of
you 1 ‘leu yards of muslin, tlnee of ribbon and a
flower in the hair, and with that, fifteen years of
age, a brilliant complexion, aud the delight of a

tioned that the toilettes of the four ladies w ho play

thousand francs, aud that Mile. Pargueil pronounces
this eulogy of white ruusliu in a dress valued at

An exchange says: General Grant, last week, was
riding fast from Georgetown to Washington, when
be was overtaken by a butcher's iait, which passed

The Need Tor Farm Labor.
The season to commit the seed to the earth is at
hand, the farmers in the conntry are going through
the market places seeking laborers for the vineyard,
and yet various and numerous able-bodied freed
men, poorly clad, and without money, with hands in
their breeches pockets, and an air of don’t-care-a
tiveness may lie seen at the street corners refusing to
seek homes or contract to labor for the present year.
Now tics is wrong, all wrong, and very wrong, for
the colored individual that refuses to'workinthc
fields, or gomewhero else, during the present year,
will have no clothes or food the next.
The owners of the land are anxious to go to work,
to mako crops and help to recuperate and make
Honrish again the barren waste which war has left,
butthev can do nothing without labor: and as their
main dependence is on the freedmen, if they refuse
to work, nil is lost. The wealth of a country con
sists in its productions, and unless we can revive the
agricultural interests of the Sontli we need not talk
of future prosperity or the development of our re
sources. Our resources are mainly in the soil, in the
bowels of the earth, and nothing but toil will bring
them forth.
The blacks have but one choice, and it is to labor,
systematically and for fair wages, or abaudon the
held for others who ate anxious to take it. They
cannot remain here unless they will work—not that
they will encounter violence or injustice, but the
Hood of immigration and industry that is flowing
from Old and New Knglatid to these States will run
over them and trample them down. They must
either bestir themselves and woTk, or get out of the
way .—Raleigh Progress.
The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph makes this curious,
hut rather important correction. It says: “The
New York Times, in quoting the famous Senatorial
despatch from the President to Governor Johnson,
gives it in the following language: ‘ Why can’t yon
elect a United States Senator f Governor Johnson’s
version of the same document, as communicated to
the Legislature, is ns follows: ‘Why can’t you be
elected as United States Senator 1’ The duly de
volves on somebody—it is unnecessary to say whom
—to clear np this matter, ami tell the public which
version is right," _,

PROSPECTUS OF THE “ STONEWALL BANNER ’
The undersigned hare associated themselves for the |
purpose of establishing a Newspaper and Job Office in
the town of Lexington. The paper will be known un
der the above title, and wo have so named it, not only
to localize and popularize il, but in honor of one who
lived with ns and who died for us, and whoso memory
will ba revered so long as the everlasting mountains
shall enduro, which encompass his last resting place.
It shall be our earnest endeavor to make it in all re
spects worthy of the support of the people of Rock
bridge and ml joining counties, and we therefore appeal
with confidence for a liberal share of the public pa
tronage. It will bn Iho exponent of the public • enli
ment and Iho advocate of iho rights and interests of
the people, whose aid we solicit and among whom we
liavo been born and raised. Whatever measure of
public policy or of local improvement that looks to
an extension of tha great arteries of trade, or to a
more extended development of the material and mlno
ral resources, In which our valley and mountains
abound, wo shill advocate with energy and zeal. No
labor or oxponso will bo spared to etilitlo it to an
agreeable reception at every flresldo. and, in order to
do so, each number will contain a variety of reading
matter, the latest and most reliable telegraphic news, a
monetary new* article, and a full report of Congres
sional and Legislative proceedings. Wo hope to make
It the decided interest of our business men to seek it as
a medium of communication to tno public mind, by an
extensive circulation, based entirely on its meiilsasa
public journal.
With regard to our national affairs, we can only say
that the issues of our recent struggle, have obliterated
all party lines bsstweon the people of the South, and
political distinctions are no longer known among us—
we shall therefore support such men and measurus,
whoso consorvulli'0 influences are or cm be made
available in the removal of obstacles to our social and
political establishment as a people, and to a restoiaiion
of equality ns a Statu of the Federal Union.
In the present doplor.iblo condition of our beloved
old Commonwealth, and the unsettled state (<f ony pub
lic affairs, we know tjiat (totny difficulties must attend
Hie building up nl any now enlurpitse, but with ener
gy and perseverance we hope to give Iho "B.is.nhh” a
permanent position among ihu journals of the Slate.
Wo shall conduct it with toleration and respect for
the sentiments of all who may differ with us in opinion,
and we ask the hamo courtesy for ourselves.
