GEORGIA ELECTIONS.

The returns from the Maryland and Georgia
Elections show much larger number of votes
than has been taken in any year since the last Pre-
sidential election. Accordingly the Wing gain
has been proportional. That the Wing vote
has always been large, since lS4O whenever there
has been general turnout. The Locofocos on
the contrary, have failed carry their tick
ct where the rn-out small.
There is in these facts abundant cause OF con.
graduation to the Wings. He finds that he has
always had the election i'll his power: that if he
has not carried them, it has only been because he
did not choose to put forth his strength. The
Wing majority invariably increases with the in
crease of the whole vote. As there can be no
doubt in 1914 much larger number of votes will
be poed than have ever been before, so the cleo.
ton OF MIR. Clay is almost beyond the reach of ac-
cidcnt.

THE LATE FIRE AT THE HIGH SCHOOL

To The Editor Of the Alexandria Gazette.
FOR the satisfaction o. many who will take deep interest
IN the case, hasten to announce though your paper the
facts respecting fire which this day October occurred
at the Episcopal High School of Virginia.
The dwelling OF the principal has been nearly consumed
But through the OF Guardian Providence no other
portion of the buildings has been all injured Hence
there will be interruption OF the regular duties Of the
sesson-The students wEo have arrived will find no i'm
podment from the damage and there no reason to deter
Others who design coming. from entering immediately
though nothing had occurred.
How the fire originated be sIrmised. The first
appearance OF 1t noticed by and Others in the
yard, about half past O'Clock in the morning. dense
smoke was then pouring through the roof Great exerons
were made to extngish immediately md a messenger
was forthwith despatched AeXandra Tor engines The
utmost however that could be done was TO keep the raging
clement from spreading the other buildings and this
quted extreme energy and the part OF all
present Much Is due the timely aid Of the students of
the Theological Seminary who bore valuable part IN pre-.
serving the important buildings and keeping the FIRE under
until the arrival OF the engines from Alexandria Two OF
these latter came with the prasworihy despacb and
arrived IN time to ouppess the fire entirely; thereby saving
the most valuable buildings Of the institution The compa
mes conducting these engines deserve and hereby tender
to them, the cordial thanks of all concerned in the In
siituuon, for the promptness with which they came dis

Mr. IIchSlcr.


We perceive with feelings of disgust, that some
of the Wing journals are disposed to receive Mr..
Webster again into communion. We hope and
believe, that this is not the sentiment of the Wing
party generally. That party has already suffered!
too much from false friends 70 trust too readily,
any one who has been placed in suspicious circunl-
stances.
What possible ground can Mr.. Webster have.
for asking re-admission into the Wing ranks!
When the Cabinet of General Harrison resigned.
Mr.. Webster alone, held on TO his office: he did
so, after he had become well aware of the fact,
that Lohn Tyler. the accidental President of the
Union to the Wings; that they regarded him as a
Traitor, whose crimes were little less hcinous than
those of Arnold himself: and that Mr.. Webster's
association with him, nothing less than an ac-
acknowledgement of participation i'm his sins. Under
these circumstances il is direct insult to the
common sense of the Wings, for Mr. Webster to
offer his services in the approaching contest.
Great as his abilities undoubtedly are, we trust the
Wing party will not receive him again. He can
bring no accession of strength, but will be sure to
bring an abundance of odum. He can do us no
harm. engaged openly against us. He may do
us much, if allowed to come back among us.
Mr.. Webster never left the side of Capt Tyler,
As long rs his assistance was available to embar-
rass the Wing party. Like Capt. Dugald Dalget-
ty, of Dinwthatck, he makes it point of honor.
to serve out the campaign in the employment of
those who engaged him for that term. That being
concluded. he is ready TO hire out his sword for
the next, 10 the first, and highest bidder.
