WIG TRIUMPH VIRGINIA.

BY a gentleman who arrived in this city last
evening, from Virginia, we learn that Slaughter,
the Wing candidate, has been certainly elected to
Congress in the Madison district, Va in the place
of Linn Banks, Locoioco, resigned This is "a tri-
uph of no little consequence We have moi only
been saved from bitter, unprincipled. ignorant

place. Slaughter Wing OF the right SOFT
There is no irsplitting-poIitical-t ranscenden-

have my information, of the election of Slaughter,
from a reliable source-Mr. Barton, the mem ber
from the Jefferson district, Va.

MIssIssiPPI-Onr readers may be curious to
know what kind of pretext is set up for refusing
to pay debt incurred by authority of the Legis.
lature and Governor, and for which the unfortunate
bond-ho have given full value So far as we
can understand the pretext, it is this The Legis-
lature directed that the Union Bank should go
into operation the State Bonds for FIVE
millions at five per cent. could be sold at par.
The States Commissioners proceeded to negoti-
ute the stocks on the best possible terms--takjDg
therefor at par drafts on Eas tern cities having
some time to run These drafts were passed over
to the Bank, paid out by 1t in discounts cash
paid in full by the drawers, and were in fact bet
ter than money in Mississippi. Yetthe pretext
set up is that the bonds sold mnder par by the
States agents, and, being sold, the State ought
not to pay them. This is the ground, and all the
ground, SO far as we understand it on which
the Loco Focos OF nj issssippi have voted TO re-
pudiate their state debt IN. Y. Tribune, L.

learn that the affairs of the White House at w ash

name Of Wilkins, whom the President hires at a
salary, with perquises, Of $1,000 per annum, and
who disburses all the expenses of the palace. He
has his Office where he keeps his account employs
and discharges whomsoever he peases. His son,

$1,000 year, and introduces all stangers to the

UTICA, NEW DIRK,
Monday Eve'g, Sept. q.
The important case of the People Of Nep
York VS.. alexander Mcleod, indicted for the
murder of Amos Durfee, at Fort Schlosser, Nj
agara county, in December, 1887, at the burning
OF the Caroline, was the first called after the
organization Of our Circuit Cour' to-day-Judge
Grldley, IN the absence of Chief Justice Mel
son, presiding. MIR. Willis Hall, Attorney Gen
eral, was ready on behalf Of the People, and
moved that the trial proceed; but Mr.. J. A.
Spencer, on behalf of the prisoner, opposed the
motion, stating that his associates-Judge Gar
diner OF Rochester, and Mr.. Bradley, of Lock
port-were both absent in Canada, taking testi-
mony, and though daily expected, he could not
say positively when they would arrive. The
counsel for the defence had encountered unex-
pected difficulties, in the scattering of their wit
nesses, since 1897, to all parts of British Amer
lea, from Lake ST. Clair TO the Gulf of ST. Law
renee; some even to England. The work Of
obtaining their testimony had been one of great
difficulty. He did not now feel prepared to go
to trial on an issue involving the life of his eli
ent, and he moved that the case be set down for
Monday next which was the earliest day that
he could now agree to proceed.
Mr.. Hall opposed the delay as unreasonable,
when so long time 10 prepare had already been
enjoyed. He stated that great number of wit
nesses had been summoned from great dis
lance, at serious expense and inconvenience
to them-both which would be aggravated by
so long delay.
Judge Grdey took time to consider the mat
ter, reserving to the Attorney General the right
10 renew his motion during the week.
The case was then passed over, and the trial
Of civil causes commenced. The trial will be
long and interesting one. do not consider the
acquittal of Mcleod as by any means certain.
The testimony will abound in startling contra
dctions. Yours, II.

NEW OfLEANS, sotpt. TO- lo4
We have had enough to attend to keep off
the pestilence that is raging in our midst and
killing hundreds, without fixing our attention
closely upon things at Washington. The first
Veto is, however, decidedly growing in favor.
Thinking people see the danger of committing
to an irresponsible corporation, the right to col
lect, keep, and disburse the public revenue for
twenty years, and at round reward. What do
they ask2 They demand the sovereign right
to coin money TO make it scarce or plenty at
will to monopoize the domestic and foreign
exchanges to discount private paper, and a
hundred other privileges. Is not this paying too
dearly for the whistle2 We are reoccd that
Mr. Tyler has put an extnguisher upon one of
these enormous privileges-the discount power.
Why cannot an organization of the finance
department take place, so as TO enable its head
to anticipate the revenue by the issue of exche-
quer bills, of denominations of 10, 20, so, and
100 dollars, without interest, and authorize him
to sell home exchange according TO the public
wants. This would be all that could be expect
ed Of the fsc, 10 give US currency, and regu-
late incidentally the exchanges.

VISIT or THE PRINCE DE JoINyILLE.

The Prince de Joinville, who left this city
yesterday for Norfolk ria Baltimore, was re-
ceived by the PRESIDENT with that cordiality
and consideration TO which he was so fully emit
tied by the hospitality uniformly extended 10
our fellow citizens by the King Of the French.

such special claim upon our civilities, comes re-

agreeable and the most unaffected simplicity Of
manners, can do 10 entiile gentleman TO re-
spect and attention every where.
His ROYAL HIGHNEss arrived in this city on
Wednesday, and was received by the Past
DENT at 2 o'clock on the same day On Thurs
day he visited the Navy Yard in the Presidents
carriage, conducted by Mr. John Tyler, jr. and
Commodore Nicholson, and was received with
a complimentary salute of twenty -one guns
AT O'Clock he dined with the President in
large party, composed Of the Corps Diploma
tique, the members of the Cabinet now in this
city, Lord PRuDHoE, brother of the Duke Of
Northumberland, and Sir HENRY HART, both OF
the Royal Navy, and many distinguished Off
GERS of our own Army and Navy.
In the evening, several hundred invitations
having been sent out, a very numerous assem-
blage Of citizens OF all parties were collected at
the Presidents House, for whose reception all
the apartments were thrown open.
A BAND OF Music from the Navy Yard was in
waiting, and Immediately after dinner struck up
the National Airof ''iai Columbia" followed by
the 'Parisienne," and continued to play through
out the evening, which closed with some
dancing
We are gratifed to be able to state that the
whole entertainment was exceedingly brilliant
and agreeable, and altogether worthy Of what
was, in some sort an act of national hospitality.

Many of the Wings Of this section were very
much offended at first BY the vetoes, because
they were led to believe by all the speakers Gone
excepted) that both Tip and Ty were bank
men supported them, knowing them to be
anti bank, or at least anti II. Clay's bank, and
so did many others, and time has proved we
were right
The great mass now acknowledge that the
President has done well, and that he will be
maintained by the people, notwithstanding the
power and influence Of the ultra Wing bank
press, and the Clay bank party. Every day is
improving the prospect Of sending Tyler man

The course of Mr.. Tyler should and soon will
receive the appreciation of the masses Of the
Wing party, and here the people, all believe,
except such as have been operated upon by po-
liticians, commend it. In his vetoes, the Presi
dent has saved the honor of the country and Of
the Wing party, and well is it for the whole
people that he has prevented a National Bank of
discount; because in fact, both bills permitted
discounts, one, openly, by notes, the other, CO
verify, by bills of exchange

was binding upon all courts and tribunals of the
