RE MATTERS BEFORE THE COMMITTEES Fence Around the Leo Monument—To Con sider Floction Measures, Ete. Fence Around the Leo Monument-To Con sider Election Measures, Etc, Farly in the session of the General Assembly Mr. Stubbs introduced in the Senate a bill to employ a watchman for the Lee monument at a salary of £0 per annum. The bill went to the Finance Committee, and a sub-committee consisting of Messrs. Thomas H. Barnes, Jordan, and Harnsberger was appointed to consider the question whether it would be better to employ a watchman at the monument or put a railing around ft. The sub-committee visited Lee circle and reported to the general committee in favor of a railing, as they considered that to enclose the monument would be more economical than employing a watchman, and would add to the beauty of the me morial. The full committee will probably report a bill appropriating a sufficient sum to erect a railing. OYSTER LEGISLATION, Senator Washington, of Westmoreland, has returned from a short visit to his home. He says the people of his section want no legislation on the oyster ques tion except a few amendments to the present law which will contribute to its more rigid enforcement. The bill introduced in the Senate Fri day by Mr. Jackson, and which was referred to as a bill to amend the act in regard to liquor licenses, wis really a bil to tax merchants for county and school Jurg0ses. “I'he Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections will meet at o'clock Monday afternoon. There are before the commit tee Mr. Stubbg’s resolution relative to an inquiry into the question of abolishing the electoral boards and placing the duties of same In the hands of county judges; the resolution instructing the committee to submit a list of electoral boards for the several citiés and counties, and Mr. Jackson's bill providing for various and sundry changes in the electoral-laws. Mr. Jackson is a Populist. The commit tee will not recommend any material change in the present laws. That seems gettled. The Elections Committee of the House will also meet Tuesday, when the Nicol primary election will be considered. TAX ON REAL ESTATE AGENTS.

The work of these Parisian players, with 200 years of pantomime traditions behind them, and an accurate knowledge of all that is imvlied in the art, Is, in every sense of the word, a revelation. Here tofore the American understanding of the art has been restricted almost entirely to certain Humpty-Pumpty manifestations, Of legitimate pantomime nothing was known here until this company made its appearance at Daly's New York theatre, at the beginning of the current season, The play of “The Prodigal Son” is a comedy-drama, in three acts, with an elaboratg and excepgonally clever musi cal accompaniment running all the way through, and serving not only to break the monotony of silerice, but also to ac centuats the action, a purpose accoms plished with surprising effect, thanks to the descriptive quality of Andre Wormser's music, and the unique ability of M. Lach man, who acta in conjunction with the enlarged orchestra. In the play every thing is done with such grace and ex pression that it is sald that there is ro difficuty in understanding every move ment.

On Wednesday, at the same house, the University of Virginia Glee, Banjo, and Mandolin Clubs give the Initial perfor ce of their annual tour. The occa ony should attract a large audience of muslo-lovers, as an excellent programme has been arranged, and the clubs being thoroughly efficient and well trained, a first class concert is anticipated. An event of no little importance, both from a sccial and a dramatic standpoint, will take place at ths Academy Thurs day night, when, by permission of E. H. Sothern, his sparkling comedy, in three acts, will be presented by a company of amateurs. The entertainment is given for the benefit of Rosemary Public Li rary, and with the conditions under which it will be presented, cannot full to prove a success. Tha play, which has been in active rehearsal for some considerable time, has been most carefully cast, and the best local talent secured for its pre sentment, I"'riday and Saturday at the Academy will be filled by the *“Blue-gGrass’ Com pany, in which Mr. and Mrs, Cyril Nor man will appear. Myron Leffingwell is the author of this play, which was only put upon the road this season. HOW SPORTSMEN CAN HELP. Mr. Miller Wants Their Influential Ald in Securing Revised Game Laws, The following explains itself: To the Sportsmen of Virginia: I was directed by the Virginia Fleld Sports Association at its annual meeting, held in this city in October last, to pre pare a bill to be presented to the Legis lature for the protection of game. I have done so, and for your information I beg to say that the needed changes and addi tions have been asked for, and I trust ‘that you will urge your representatives in the General Assembly to support them. It is impossible for me to answer all the letters I get telling me to "get a bill through,” &ec. 1 have visited the legisia ‘tive body frequently, and always get a respectful hearing, and they all say, “We heartily endorse yoursbill, and wiil vote for it.” I have been before the last four sessions of our legislature on the same business, and got nice treatment, and from the hearty manner in which they endorsed my propositions, I thought it was a dead sure thing; but when they had scattered to their homes the ‘‘game bili” was among the good things over. looked. This is positively my last at tempt, and if we cannot get the bill through now, at a time when the effects of last winter's snow are remembered as the most destructive to game since the winters of '36 and '57, it is useless to try any further. If something is not done by this Legislature for the protection of cur game, it is but a question of a year or two mora when we will enjoy “shooting in Virginia” through the medium of books written on that subject by the older peo ple. The changes asked for are as follows: “The open season for birds is changed to November 1st, instead of October 15th, as it now is.” This is for the East Blue Ridge section. In the West Blue Ridge country October 15th is asked for by many sportsmen as the opening time, and January 1st as the closing time, but we ask for the 1st of November all over the State as the time for the opening, while it runs to February 1st in the East, Birds are not to be shot in the snow at any time—in or out of season. Shipment of game out of the State, dead or alive, is positively forbidden. Trapping and net ting, too, ars prohibited. The payment for the scalps of hawks, owls, minks, and weasels are asked for as a law of the State, requiring all counties to pay for them, instead of as now, some coun ties paying, while others do not, The scalps of foxes, killed by dogs only, to be paid for. Hares are protected, because when hunted in July, August, September, and October the hounds destroy a great many young birds. While we beg for a geperal law with regard to other game, and discourage “local” laws, still we are willing to exempt those counties from the peration of the general law when hares are destructive to young fruft trees and vege tables. The changes asked for for deer, turkeys, wild water-fowl, and pheasants are immaterial as to the open and close season, but we ask for such penalties for the violation of the law as will make their rigid enforcement a certainty.
