Too Bad.

"Quantico,'' the Washington Correspon-
dent of the Alexandria Sentinel, gives the
followin cruel thrust to the modesty Of our
''retired Statesman" We protest against
this ill usage Of the bashful Yellowplush.-
His retiracy from the theatre Of public life
was significantly acknowledged at Baltimore
during the Convention, in the fact that Mr.
Fillmore's Ex-Secretary, Honorable Alex
auder Hugh Holmes Stuart, was never men
toned. Why then does "Quantico'' and
Bolts still 'harp on my daughter. +? Poor
Stuart, how uucharitable it is for Bolts
John Minor Botts-the same individual
with whom he served in Congress, and with
whom certain afectionatc epithets passed re-
lative to a certain resolution-to be poking
fun at him. ct is so, and pity tits so y
Our Stuart-the peculiar institution zoe have
been nurturing and cultivating for 10 these
many days. The same Stuart who has bran
ched out very largely in the Manufacturing
UuSlu6SS OIL UQe COutu 1GlVtl L NC lutuGlCdl
Stuart who immortalized his craftsmanship
last winter by procuring the signatures Of
all the disinterested neighbors in GER
tain locality to petition for a Turn
pike charter through certain farms, the own
ers of which were never consulted, to his
still house. The comprehensive Stuart,
who, it is generally conceded, originated last
winter scheme of magnificent moral pro-
portions and stupen1ous financial dilnen-
sioEs, by which the Chickens, Eggs, de-,
used at the Lunatic Asylum, were to be let
out by contract to the lowest bidder For
Bison Bolts to be guilty ofnaughty insinua-
lions about the modesty Of this gentleman,
is too bad. But here is what Bolts says:
Hon. John Minor Bolts upon being ask
ed the other day which was most thought of
in Virginia Hon. VIM G. Rives or Hon. A.
H. II. Stuart, answered that he thought
Mr.. Stuart was, as he was always thinking
of himself, and Mr.. Riyes occasionally
thought Of others.

ROur cotemporary of the Winchester
Republican makes merry over mistake that
occurred in communication from the
editor written at Charleston, S. G. The
types make us say-speaking of the negro
population, of that city, ''and Invested Of
that element of our Creator which partakes
of the divine" The manuscript-which
like nearly all editors, is very difficult to
decypher--reads, tand Invested of that ele-
ment of our nature which partakes Of the
divine"
With this explanation we trust the Repub-
lican, and the theological world-to which
our contemporary directs his comments-will
be satisfied that we are not ambitious of ia
novating upon the received truths of chris
tianity, nor incredulous of the entire divinity
of our Creator.

The r.tI, Electoral District.

The sentiment Of approval which has
been expressed throughout the Distfct, of
the course pursued by the delegates to the
National Convention at Charleston from this
District, is the strongest indication of the
feeling of the democratic masses we have
yet witnessed.
It was we'll understood by the District
Convention which appointed Messrs. Moffett
and Yost, that they were opposed to any in
reference with the Cincinnati Platform,
and were devoted to the interests of no man
where their advocacy might injure the final
success of the party. Hence the refusal Of

meetings for the purpose of appointing a
delegate in his stead to properly represent
them at Baltimore. This step of Mr.. Bay
ard will doubtless cost him his seat in the

EwIn travelling through portions of
Augusta and Rockingham counties, we no.
ticed that the recent frosts have more or less
injured the wheat crop. We also learn from
various parts of Augusta that the damage
to slight extent, seems to be general. -
We are really sorry for this, as the prospect
tor an abundant wheat harvest never promi-
scd better.
The weather has been remarkably fayora-
bic to the corn, and many of our farmers
have already commenced working their
