The recent Gle ton in Virginia produced consi-
dersble excitement! even in this remote region. The
VI terrified democracy lacked the nerve, or they
could have won the lest dollar from some Of Sans
CHILDREN. II turns out, however, Fiournoy made q
great race. His vote, 1t Is said, viii exceed Peross
when he beat Scot over Is 900. Bat the Irish on the
railroads were too numerous. Old Virginia IL hard
old state Ephram is closely joined to his idols The
reported conduct Of the Know Nothings in Page
county, It be true, proves that all the bad folks
are not In the peritentiary. One thing seems ssnge
In this electioD--tnat u the fact that EpiscopAaus
Of the Low church, wings and democrats, backed
Nth their influence and votes Henry A. Wise, tho
great champion Of the Pope Of Rome. This "a well
worthy Of being seriously pondered upon.

tight side up IN August. THIS 10 no idle speculation,
but Q fixed fact.
or Old Kentucky cannot speak 80 adyissdIy. I
discs yer Col William Preston has faied TO get the

greater man, Ia many respec. g. was hard TO fSd,>
said ne never knew man until he got hi u dsuak
or pa! ed cards with hum. II there Is asy dog N .
man II Is apt TO come out then.
Here In the Arkansas We nave the prospect Of
msgnlhceI 1t crops-corn was never so foe at this
season OF the year before. Cotton looks toIeraoly
sxeIihdesd, very well, bat small. Toe farmers
have not shipped their old crop Jet, the river has
