CHARLOTTE ELECTION


Our information says, there about 60 foreign
poed in this county this Spring, 20 OF which were given
to The Democratic candidate, Dr. Garden the balance
The Wing candidate, Wyatt Cardwel OF the bad votes,
% or more are estimated to long the Wings have
heard Of none bad on The Administration poll; SO Tint
throwing ont oil foreign and bad on both Sides
would supposng this estimate 10 be correct leave the
Administration candidate majority of the of the
county, while this Spring election cannot be viewed as
test Of the strength of parties.
The Wings expected TO be beaten and made a heavy
equstion upon their Wing brethren of Prince Edward
they feeling interest in the election in that county
One man was heard 10 say, he saw got 20 Wing vo
ers from that county the Monday previous TO the cleo
ton. There is one fact | should like explained Why
is it, that men, whose votes VIGOROUSLY bad at home,
within two miles Of precinct, should ride distance Of
IL miles to the Courthouse to give their votes Instances
of this sort numerous in Charlotte. IL there could
be fair expression Of the sentime nts and principles Of
the voters Of The county, hazard nothing in saying
there is decided Democratic majority The obstacles
TO this thing is matter Of fame in The county
Many honest and intelligent Wings admit there is de-
cided majority Of Democratic voters in the county, at
least this opinion expressed by few days pre-
vious to the election-and there be cause for
change; for if there is apparent augmentation of the
Wing vote, this Spring, there is also increase of
the Democratic poll since last year, and if The balance
dependencies in favor of The Wing vote, it is owing to
the greater number of foreign and spurious votes.

TILE SILK CULTIIRE

Mr.. Morris Pollock, the enierprizng Throwsler Of
Glasgow, has arrived in the Great Western and has
proceeded 10 PtIsylvania county, this State where
he proposes TO establish large Mulberry plantation
Cocoonery and Fiature for recling the Silk He has
uvaed himself Of the Act OF Assembly of 1893 and has
already become quasi Citizen Of The State for the pur
pose of holding lands. We had the pleasure Of witness
ing an interesting interview Friday evening between
Mr.. Pollock and Mr. D'Homergue. They agree in their
views of the best manner Of conducting the Silk bust
in the United States They Think that Virginia is
10 conne herself al present to the raising Of the Null
Cocoons-and that it probably best TO establish large
Fatures, which will furnish market for the Cocoons
and supersede tho necessity Of each Silk Culturis
having reel Of his own-and that it is better for us
TO export the silk, 10 be manufactured in Europe
Mr. Pollock 10 possess great knowledge Of his
subject and 10 show the most liberal disposition
municate il 10 others, and TO encourage the enterprise
in this Stale He much surprised by the accounts
that were given him of the active and prolific qualities
Of the Morus Mullicaus. He has brought out with
him quantity of the white Italian Mulberry; and pre-.
sumed that he could not get his cocoonery operation
before the third year-bu the character Of The multi
cauls VIII enable him to 60 TO work much sooner Mr
Homergue has also great perience in the business
He is decided enthusiast but at the same time pru.
dent and consderate. From the elements Of calcula
ton, with which he furnished on Friday, it appears
that barring all accidents and with cocooneries econo
micay built and properly conducted each of ground
will produce nett profit of least $500. In fact he
contends that it will be more profitable business than
raising tobacco in Virginia, and cotton in the South
