PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

~ Monday the End Of November is the
day of Election for Presidential Electors il
Virginia. We would urge upon the various
Tippecanoe Clubs of the County, to take
timely measures to ensure the attendance of
every voter at the polls within their bounds.
See to it, that the old, the sick, and the liz.
firm, are not prevented from voting for want
of the necessary facilities of getting there
and urge upon every man the importance of
so arranging his business that he will not be
absent from the county on that day, as the
voter can only give his suffrage where the ev-
idence ofhis qualification exists. We would
also urge upon the Clubs the propriety of
furnishing themselves early with Electoral
Tickets. The idea prevails, we are told, 70
some extent, that we are to vote only for tho
Elector Of our own district. This is a mis-
take. The achoIe t,renfy-fhree electors mu,.
be roted for--and the voter must have his
name written on the back of his ticket All
persons qualified to vote for members OF the
General Assembly, are entitled to vote in this
election.

was collector, the revenue amounted TO $780,
100000. MIR. Il. therefore collected yearly
on an average Sic, 500, 900. MIR. HoyT came
into office on the 29th March, 1888. and col
lected from the LIST of April, 1898, 10 the 3Ist
of March, 1910, inclusive, beinu two wears.
S2l,22O,5lO 60 cents. MIR. II. therefore col
lected on an average yearly, for two years,
$l2,llO,255.
ltfollows that Mr.. Thompson, on an aver
age yearly, for eight years together, collected
more than MIR. HoYT has done on a yearly
average, by the sum of 1886, 7l4 65 ccnts.-
The greatest amount Of revenue collected in
any one gear by Mr.. THoMpsoN is Sl5,7OO,-
GOO. The greatest amount collected by Mr..
HoYT, an any one gear, is SI3,97O,332 81
cents. So that we here see that Mr.. THoMp-
SON exceeds MIR. HoyT's greatest amount of
collection, in any one gear, Iy The sum of ST.
T29, 667 10 cents. To do this, Mr.. THOMPSON
| employed lao officers and clerks, and expen-
ded Sl49,49S 81 cents while Mr.. HoYT, in
collecting what he has done, employed, ac-
cording to the National Register ofihe Both of
September, 1889, 452 officers, Clerks, &c.
and expended $507 ,56l % cents; EMPLOYING
3l2 officers, clerks, &c. mere than MIR.
| THOMPSON, and increasing the expenditures
OF collection Si35S, 062 II cents. Look, fel.
low-citizens, at this enormously increased ex.
pense, and consider whether there is any
thing In the increase of imports to justify this
great difference! Depend uponit something
else is at the bottom of all this besides the
mere collection of the revenue, which think
shall make appear before am done.

THE TESTIMONY OF WASHING

ADMINISTER ALTON

1.-The following is from letter of Gen.
WASHINGTON to John Armstrong, and may
be found at p. 353 of vol. 9 of Sparks Life.
sin country like this, where equal liber-
ty is enjoyed, where every man may reap his
own harvest, which by proper attention will af-
lord him much more than Is necessary for his
own consumption, and where there is so am
pie field for every mercantile and mechan-
zeal eXertion, If there cannot be found Money
sufficient Tor the common purposes Of life, not
to mention the necessary commercial circula-
ton, 1t is evident that there is something d.

Officers--and say whether, when the PEO-

THE RIGHT SPIRIT

We are truly gratiiied to leap that num-
Der of our gray headed men have determined
to attend the great Wing Rally at Richmond,
on the 9th of October. AUGUSTA raised a
company of SILVER GRAYS, when our
shores were threatened with invasion, du-
ring the last war-and the same spirit, we
doubt not, still animates our old men of the
present day. In the cause of their country,
they ask no exemption from sacrifices and
dangers, but that of absolute physical inabili-
ty-and they will have none. We rejoice in
the prospect of seeing goodly number of
them at the head of our delegation.

THE GRAND WING RALLY!

10 the Itppecanoe Clubs Of AUGUSTA.
1t is very desirable to ascertain as speedily
as possible, the number of Citizens of An

.gGecfing Incident on Bunke7~HiH--
the countless interesting scenes, which took
place during the unprecedented Convention
OF the 10th lnstant-the mere recital of which
would fill volume--the following most
touching incident has been related TO us:
As the delegation from New HAMPSHIRE
was passing that from Alabama on Bunker
Hill, the standard-bearer of the latter discov-
cred in the standard-bearer CT the former. his
o'on brother, whom he had not met for five
years. The instant they recognized each
other, they rushed together and gave vent to
their feelings, and as the banners of the two
distant States hoated in union over the heads
of the two brothers, the members of the pro
cession Joining with the immense concourse
OF Spectators on the spot, rent the air with
loud and enthusiastic cheerings.

IVA leaf from history has been brought to
light by the New York democratic Press IS
furnishing an account of public dinner Civ
en- to Gen. Harrison by the Democrats of that
city in 1913. Among the set toasts was the
following:
"Major General Harrison TIE DeKrerey
of the Uestern Frontier.--I7 eheers.''
But, after all, ofwhat avail is History now
to Gen. Harrison! One Loco consults Ro,-
LIN, and declares he can find no mention of
his name; and that is conclusive AGAINST
him. Another says he believes it is all a
mig he--that there is no surh man as
General Harrison His disinterested patri-
otism has not been calculated to keen his me-
mory alive with such folks. If he had made
noise about his services, and tried to turn
them to account in putting money in his
pocket-no doubt these very chaps would
now be throwing up their hats, and hnzzainr
for him, at the very top oftheir voices.

BERKELEY WING FESTIVAL.

A correspondent of the National Intelligent
Ger, writing from Martinsburg, Virginia,
speaks thus:
The Berkeley Festival passed ofyesterday,
(Sep. 10) with great eclaf. Never have we
witnessed more attentive and delighted au-
ditory never has it been our pleasure to lis
ten to more powerful and overwhelming dis
plays of popular eloquence, all varied in their
character, and yet of the highest order of ex-
celience. The speaking commenced at III
O'Clock, A. NJ. and was continued, except du-
ring the intervals allowed for dinner and sup
per, until 1 at night. John Janney, the
Wing Eector for the Loudoun district, OPEN
ed the discussion; he was succeeded by Gov.
Barbour, of Orange, and followed by John S.
Pendleton, the Wing Elector for the Culpep-
er district; William Price, of Maryland, Jas.
Lyons: the Elector for the Richmond district;
and David Hoffman, the Senatorial Elector
for the State of Maryland, in the order in
which they are named. All the speakers
fulfilled the high expectations Of the public,
and added fresh laurels to their fame. twas
a day of which "Old Berkeley will long be
proud.

az The Wing victory in Vermont is rep
resented by some of the Administration party
as triumph of the Abolitionists. This is the
very reverse of the fact. The Locofoco candi-
Gate for Governor, Paul Dillingham;, is an
AbolitIonIst, and was openly electionecred
Tor on that ground. SO also the Locofoco
candidate for Lieutenant Governor, Edward
u. barbour. He has been the editor of an
Abolition newspaper, and is now, and has
been Tor years, the Secretary of the Vermont
Anti Slavery Society. These facts show
how unfounded is the slang that the Wing
party is cooperating with the Abolitionists.
In this Instance. at least, it is emphaticaly
the old cry of 'Thief, Thief ~ Of those who
have been stealing.
