it has regun.
As will be seen by reference to the j
news columns of the Times the census
enumerators yesterday started on their
rounds, and all over the country sim?
ultaneously question and answer were
bandied from householder to agent.
The Times has already had a zooC.
deal to say on the census questior, lui
it does not regret the space u>ed. It
is a most important matter and oue
that threatens to a certain extcut the
rights of American citizens. The
question as to whether or not the gov?
ernment has a right to force a cit;zen
to divulge information personal only
to himselfhas now to 02 answered.
We are quite sure that no self-re
specting citizen will ausser those con?
cerning the sanity of himself, his wife
or his children, neither will he tell the
enumerator the state of h's nuance or
the mortgages he or any one else
holds. It is none of the business 0!
the government and, though it threatens
a fine of $100, no less a lawyer than
David Dudley Field says that it
cannot be collected: that the law
unconstitutional.
But the fault is not with the enun* r: -
tor. This must not b3 forgo:
Treat him with the utmost cousid< ra?
tion. Ask him to be seated. ( ive
him a table to write on and promptly
? answer such questions as you think
Uncle Sam has a right to ask.
But wheir these questions become
impudent, ridiculous and personal, re?
fuse to answer.
A eirerae standpoint.
The Washington Post is oue of the j
most unique journals in the country.
It has a Democratic and a R publi an
end, and the composite newspaper
thus produced, is having a success that
is most gratifying.
But above aud beyoud ull party dis?
tinctions, it is a newspaper of the p e
ent, and it recognizes the fact that the
time is past for the waving of the
bloody shirt.
Pitiful indeed, says the Post, would
be the spectacle were the South so
forgetful of her distinguish : sold er?
as not to celebrate their virtues and
keep their memories gre< u. Th< a in
deed were her honesty to he ques?
tioned and her self-confessed huini in
tion to be despised, and the valu< of
her citizenship to be discounted. The
South is simply doing what any other
people of ordinary pride in "them?
selves would do under similar circum?
stances.
Had the blatant Shepherd honest
blood or noble, in his veins, such ex?
pressions as these would make it caan
tle to his brow. It is a clear, cool
statement of facts ; it is history.
The Southern people, continue- the
writer, have accepted the results of
the war. The lost cause is no more,
nor ever more to be. It is a living
cause for which they are now con?
tending, and in view of the progress
they have made in the last twenty
live years, of the sturdy, self-reliant
capacity they have developed, of the
readiness with which they hear what?
ever burden the government imp( see
upon them, of the unquestiona ?1<
alacrity with which they wouldTr; Uy
to the defense of that government
were it once in peril, it will require
something more than their veneration
forRonKHT E. Lee to convince us
that they are not sincere in their de?
votion to the old tlag, or that beneath
professions of loyalty they conceal a
treasonable purpose*
ho, for the country!
The summer season is now fairly
commenced. The first of June ushers
it in, and in a million homes, all over
the country, the thoughts of the den?
izens of the city are turning longiugly
toward green fields aud rippling waters.
The people of Roanoke are very :'or
tunate in summer, as indeed they al?
ways are. Within their easy reach are
scores of watering places, while all
about them, standing guard, are -.he
eternal hills.
So the summer outing does not mean
to the average Roanoker absence from
wife and chil.lreu. They go to the
country, yet they are within easy
reach, and the schedules ou both rail?
roads running Unto the city are ar?
ranged so conveniently that he can
come into town on business, spending
his nights with the family.
roanoke in rig type.
Vice President Eddy knows how
to get up an advertisement, and his
latest attempt in this art, for art it is,
is worth reading.
The text of the large, tastefully
printed sheet is
"go south, young man!"
It is a good text, and he follows it
with some cogent arguments, giving
his reasons why the young man should
go South, and mare especially to South
west Virginia. Next follows a list of
names of new towns. Roanoke comes
in the ceutre, like the Hub that it is,
and is printed in big black letters
- three times the siz% of the others.
It is a unique mode of advertising
^tH^dViu'iages of the city, and the

Difference la Etiquette.
An American would never think
of removing his hat prior to speak?
ing to any man on tho street.
In Holland, before .speaking to
the most humblo individual out
of doors a man uncovers. In Hol?
land, too, men and women rarely pur?
chase at the samo stot es. but in case*
whiTo they do, if a woman discovers
that men arc assembled inside she re?
treats until they leave. A live Amer?
ican storekeeper would probably soon
cha ige this feature of Dutch eti?
quette. The Americans, English. Der?
mal s und Russians shako hands with
annum bidding him welcome. An
Arab's greeting is to rub his cheek
against that of tho person he salutes
and kiss him. A Frenchman wel?
comes a friend by embracing and kiss?
ing him. though by slow degrees this
cus! on is being superseded.?Philadel?

A Funeral Ode from Horace.
A gentleman named Underwood left
?G,( 00 to his sister on condition that
she had him buried in a particular
fashion. Six gentlemen were appoint?
ed t) follow him to tho grave, where
they were to sing the last stanza of the
twentieth ode of the second book of
Koiict-. -Mourning was forbidden to
be worn; no bell had to be tolled, and
no i elation was to follow the corpse.
The six chosen gentlemen were to be
tho only mourners. Tho cofilu was
pair ted green, and the deceased was
buried with his clothes on. Three
copies of Horace were placed in the
grave with him, together with Bent
ley's Milton and a Greek Testament.
After sapper tho six mourners sang

After soaking; in hot water, the nails
should be thinned by scraping, and if
very painful a flaxseed poultice will
bring relief. After tho irritation hus ;

be pressed between the ilesh and the

be saturated with tincture of iodine, i

THE COMPANY'S PROPERTY
Consists of about 5,000 contiguous acr a adjacent to the city ol Lynchburg and
GO acres within the city limits, wki h t igether form the plateau between Black
water and Ivey creeks a id .James r ret and extending up James river for more
than tiiree miles to the Virginia Nc ! a .<1 Iron Works. It embraces the tria.igle
between the converging lines of tin No.'folk and Western and tbe Chesapeake
and uhio Railroads. At present a ravine separates (his beautiful plateau.from
the mam thoroughfares ?t a prospe city nf over 25,000 people.
The Company's Plans
it will at once sp. u tins chasm v ah nie or marc handsome bridges. The first
built will be 00 feet wido, of iron, aud in the best modern style. Tnis done the
Company's lands will form a part ? f the city and not a mere suburb and not
more than live squares from tbe bu mi ss heart of the cPy.
Among other enterprises speedily to be established will be a manufactory ot
all kinds ol cars: a furnace to manu act ;rc Bessemer pig iron; a belt line running
three miles through the.Company's lan Is and connecting the Chesapeake and
Ohio. Norfolk and Western, Riebtn ?nd and Danville and Lynchburg and Dur.
ham systems and other Railways ci nl? dug at Lyuchburg; a complete system of
Electric Street Railway, including i ;?: j from the Union Depot, connecting with
aline which will cross the new brid ;e i .to the Company'd lands; water work.-:
a handsome modern h del (a sei ouf need in Lynchburg'a rapid growth), and
Other large enterprises as utility su^g? is. The property will be laid oil'into
streets, drives, aud sites for residences Lar>i::css and manufacturing purposes,
which will be placed upon the market as speedily as the scope of so largo an
enterprise will admit of.
Lpltaii as a Someial Centre
Is such by its peculiar goograpical i itu tion. It is thegntiway of the great aud
growing Southwest. Already one < t he wealthiest cities iu the land, it is no
strauger in the great commercial ce itrts. Its luturcJs no experiment. Here
the investors or seekers of new hon is ; ud no inchoate village or crude begin?
nings, but all the elements in their >er eclion that go to make up a prosperous
city, whether social, commercial, elicioi s or educational. Lynchburg \s envi?
ronments aud rapid growth have n ade l,The Rivermot I Land Company" a ne?
cessity. It v/il! afford t ew homes ,o i a ouercrowded population aud singularly
attractive sites for its rapidly expat .lin industries.
AS A RAILROAD CENTRE.
Look at the map. The seven ra ro. ds radiating from here give quick access
to every point of the compass. Co ap< king lines, two from the West and three
to the East, assure to all cheap rat ?? f< r incoming and outgoing products. Here
especially can the manu acture' sec re lis raw material and ship Ins manufac?
tured product cheaply. The Norfo c ai-d Western and it* branches, extending
to the sea at Norfolk, bring the coa ?, c Ke, iron and timber wealth of Southwest
Virginia, while the Chesapeake am Ui :o system, embracing the Richmond and
AUeghauy: and also ex'.e jding to th ? sr i et Newport News, carries like products
from the Great Kanawha and New Ki\ if regions of West Virginia, and the rieh
ores from tiie valley of t le upper at 1 1< wer James River. The Richmond aud
Danvi?e system, embracing iho Vngi? a Midland, nnddraiuing tho rich country
from Washington to Dai ville, and ron Danville to the sea at Norfolk, also
passes through l.yuchbu g, while ll 2 Lruchburg and Durham will shortly tap

THE STOCK SUBSCRIPTION.
To secure1 a large body of nvatlab'e k'nd aud to carry out the policy of the
