EXTRACT Of a letter from King lillian Courthouse,
dated 18th FcbrudrH, 1910.

datcd 18th February, lS4O.
"The cause of Democracy, in this county, is gain
ing ground daily. The Harrisburg nomination does
not take at all with the State Rights Wings with MS;
none but the Bank Federalists will swallow it-this you
may rely upon as a fact. Already do | know of three
General Aylett, Col. B F. Dabney and Walker Halves,
ESQ., of the leading and most distinguished men of the
State Rights Wing party, who have declared openly
and publicly for Mr.. Van Buren,; and | do believe that
they are with US at heart, upon all the leading mea-
sures of the Observation-Disclosures, such is the conf
dence of some of the Administration party of this coun-
ty in the honest integrity and Democratic Republican
principles Of one of these gentlemen, that nc is talked
of as a suitable candidate for the county, at the aP-
preaching election. This idea, however, | hope, will
be abandoned upon mature refection-if it be not,
then ! am of the opinion that that gentleman is too
magnanimous, and too little of an aspirant to respond
to a call which might %jeopardize the election of an Ad-
ministration man. 1t would also be unkind in him., to
permit himself to be run as a candidate in opposition
to our present very worthy Representative, who has
faithfully discharged the trusts confded to him BY his
Democratic constituents. | am sure that no Democrat
can point out an error in his political course thus far.
al am glad to see you urging so strenuously the I'M
propriety of permitting divisions to be created IN our
ranks, by the heated zeal ofaspiring demagogues; You
cannot urge this too often, or too earnestly. Inns is
not a time for seeking the promotion OF favorltes, When
that fell monster, .Abolitionism, more terrible than death
itself, is staring US in the face.-No; II IS a time when
we should make any and every sacrifice, save that OF
our sacred honor and liberty, to put down and traInple
into the dust this horribly terrific monster-and this de-
sirable object we will surely attain, if we be but united
and active.

NORFOLK COUNTY DEMOCRATIC DOMINATION.
At a very large meeting of the Democratic patty
held at the Masonic Hall, on the 18th instant, agreca-
bly, to adjournment, Mr.. William Morrill, was called
to the Chair, and Mr.. Tapley Portlock acted as Sc
cretary. After some slight discussion as to the manner
in which the sense of the meeting should be ascertain
ed, it was decided that it should be by division and
count-Col. Levin Gayle and Dr.. William Collins
acting as tellers, when il was announced that DR.. Ar
thur R. Smith, of Deep Creek, and Mr.. Theophilus
Fisk, of Portsmouth, were the choice of the meeting,
for candidates to represent Norfolk county, in the next
General Assembly of Virginia.

TO THE EDITOR OF TIE ENQUIRER.
~ LII

MARSHALL Co., Feb. 10th, 1910.
SIR: Permit me to give you some idea of the signs
Of the times in this county. Since the defeat of Mr.
Scott, in the House of Delegates, the Wings have been
much elated, and are using every excrtion for the ap
preaching contest. On the sth inst, they held a meeting
at the Courthouse, for the purpose OF appointing a De-
legate to attend the Wing Convention to be held in
your city on the Oath, and nominating a Wing candi,
date for the House of Delegates. The day was remark
ably fine, and they had quite a respectable meeting
A number of the Democratic party happened in town,
and concluded to 90, as il was rumored that several OF
the Wing orators from Wheeling were to address the
meeting, and Of course they felt some curiosity to hear
them.
The meeting was organized a little after one o'clock
when a committee was appointed to prepare a preamble
and resolutions. The committee having retired, MIR.
Lamden, Jr., of Wheeling, was called upon to address
the meeting, who occupied the floor but a few minutes,
and gave way, calling out his friend, Col. Kelly, from
Wheeling, who rehenrsed a part Of the same Speech de-
livered by him in Wheeling a short time since, as re-
ported by the Editor of the Times, with a number OF
humorous anecdotes, which caused considerable mlrth:
also recommending a general meeting of all parties IN
this Senatorial district, TO be held in Elizabethtown, on
the 22d inst. Having taken his scat, Mr.. Robt. J. Cur.
tbs of this county addressed the meeting for a few mi
nutes. when the committee appeared and reported
whereupon, Mr.. f. Fl. Caldwell, the present Delegate,
was unanimously chosen the Wing candidate.
Notice was then given, that MIR. Wharton, editor OF
the Times wished to address the meeting. Mr.. Whar-
ton accordingly took the floor, and spoke near three
quarters of an hour, and took his seat, calling upon Mr..
Carter of Wheeling for a Speech. MIR. Carter very
~modestly and respectfully declined. 1t was fine sport
to the Wheeling orators, having had all the fun to them
selves. When 10 and behold! our old friend, Mr.. Alex
ander Newman, rose, and after a brief apology, for
throwing himself upon their indulgence, accepted the
proposition to meet on the 22d, and in a most triumph,
ant and eloquent manner repelled the charges OF
corruption apd ruin alleged to theAdministration.-
The Wing orators from Wheeling were evidently
chap-fallen, having found they had come to the wrong
quarter, and went away much ~discomftted; and il
/ mistake not, will 20 away equally as much so on
the 22d. The Republican party having clapped Mr..
Newman, when he closed, two or three of the Wings
attempted to hiss-but it would not do; the intelligent
Wings treated him with every respect and attention,
knowing that he is not only a good speaker, but argues
fairly.
Our friends are active, and Scott will be elected by
respectable majority. Old Tippecanoe cannot shine
in this quarter. The Northwest will stand firm to the
Little Magician. All is safe in this quarter.
Yours respectfully.

arguments there can be no a~nswer.-There is not a po-
litical community in Christendom, that has not funded
its public debt; but the conclusion belongs only TO this
political economist and friend Of State Rights! But
the time rs past for such discoveries; and the country
is no longer to be deluded by the syren-song of a
Bank Aristocracy.

in conclusion-h is dangerous to become a Prophet Of
coil; for self.love, and the pride of opinion are 50 reck-
less and blind, that they would rather see a People in
volved in the greatest ~calamities, than that predictions
should fail of fulflment! He will understand me
This, with the words of Sir VIM. Jones to Sir Joseph
Banks, shall conclude this notice-"H gires me great

AT time when, il ] have been correctly informed, the gentle.
man thought our present Republican Chief Magistrate unworthy
Of the support of Virginia, and took the stump on all occasions de-
nouncins Mr.. Van Buren, as an arch and unprincipled intrigner in
whom he had no confidence, and for whom he could not vote.
tThey have AT length concluded that decisive measures were
unavoidable, and at last find themselves beligeren,s in the war.
They have hazarded every thing for an object, ut which there was
a time when they would have revolted with that instructive shud-
der which a genuine friend Of Democracy always feels when lie
comes in contact with ni-Masoury, Aboltionisu, ad Ultra
Federalism.

The Wing Convention assembled in the Capitol yes
terday morning, and temporarily organized by placing
MIR. Dorman of Rockbridge, in the Chair, and appoint
ing MIR. Toler of Lynchburg Secretary. We under
stand, that the Convention did not appear as full as the
Republican Convention which adjourned on Saturday.
The Wing Convention r~e-assembled at I o'clock
last highland appointed Mr.. Thomas Miller of Pow
hatan as their President, and MIR. Toler as Secretary.
The Convention, of course, abounds with Orations.-
Yesterday forenoon, Mr.. R. Taylor of Norfolk ad.
dressed them at considerable length-and last night
We understand, Mr.. Wise was upon the hoor.-Mr
Wise is, of course, neither a member of the Legisla.
turc, nor a Special Delegate-and fthey take the same
rule, and travel out of their own body for Orators, il
will not be very surprising, if MIR. Clay and Mr.. Rives
should play a similar part in the drama. We profess to
know nothing of the movements of the Wigwam.

The 22d of February.

The day was celebrated with great spirit in Rich.

companies of City Volunteers, with Capt. McRac's
company of Henrico Dragons, and the Public Guard,
commanded by Capt. J. B. Richardson, paradcd to pay
honors to the day; and made a grand display through
the streets and on the Capitol Square, where they went
through the customary firing. The City Volunteers,
with Capt. McRae's Company, then repaired to the
CITY Hall, where they partook of refreshments, in
which they were joined by a number Of guests. Mr..
CLAY, Welding to the solicitations of a Committee Of
the Companies, made his appearance among them, re.
ceived their acclamatory situations, and responded
briefly, but indistinctly, owing to the movements of the
crowd, which pressed toward under an anxiety to hear
which caused rather a tumult. His manner however was
so impressive, so animated, indicating such genuine
feeling, while his eye beaned with such lively emo
t;ons. that those who did not hcar, were fully compensat-
ed by a view of hin during his few remarks. Mr.. Wise
was also present, interchanging civilities and friendly
greetings. as we'll with Democrats as with Wings. The
military wound up their proceedings by paradcs in the
evening. These movements, preceded by the magnif-
cent Ball, Friday night,-the presence OF MIR. Clay, Mr..
Wise and the numerous intelligent strangers in attend
ance upon the two political conventions, -infnscd into

Republican Dinner to the Special Delegate,.

The Republican Dinner came off yesterday, IN the
finest spirit. 1t was given at Terpsichore Hall; and
although several of the Special Delegates had left town,
yet there were many of them left to grace and animate

political dinners We were ever at--and never have we
witnessed more cordially of feeling, a finer spirit, a
more determined enthusiasm in the good cause, 10
which they are devoted.--The Special Delegates, the
