The MayoraI,y OF Ricbmond.

We see In the public prints that one W. B.
Barnes announces ina card that he has &C.
cepted the nomination for the Richmond
mayoralty, $50 kindly extended by my fellow
citizens" Who is the upstart Barnes, that
would usurp the seat Of Old Joe Mayo, who has
been the Lord Mayor Of Richmond these dozen
and half years last pastl
We are utterly opposed to the election of
Barnes to this responsible Office. Has not
"old Joe" acquired a lifelong lease OF the
post Of Mayor of Richmond Has he not ad-
ministsred justice in the Mayors court In that
city for SO long that he can ind precedents in
any conceivable case amongst his own rulings
Has he not earned the Prescriptive right OF
sentencing the slaves of his fellow. citizens To
receive thirty lashes for breaches of slave dis
cIpline!
Old Joe was, too, at the commencement oi
our national trouble, good Union man. The
writer of this heard him make the most tren.
chant Union speeches in the summer Of 1855
ever listened to in this country. During the
visit OF the Knights Tempiar of Boston and
Providence to Richmond, In that summer, old
Joe was a fierce UnionlSt. He poured ou
nbations of mint juleps 70 the Union every If
teen minutes.
When the subject Of Union was broached In
the presence Of his New England friends, OLD
Joe's nose grew redder, and his tongue waxed
eloquent In praise Of the Union. At that time
he would have preserved the Union at what
ever cost-he would have even picked 1t in
brandy Of the fourth proof. At q grand ban
quet given by the Richmond Commandery TO
the visiting Sir Knights, in the Exchange Ho-
tel, Old Joe said, In the course Of his speech,
"Who talks of disunioni Why, gentlemen, II
you will make me a Brigadier General, and
give me thousand men (this seemed TO be the
Southern idea of the proper proportion of the
brigadlers to the privates) will engage TO ph u
eVery disunionist, let them come from the soutf
or from the North"
We well remember the patriotic fire ant
martial energy with which old Joe pronounced
this speech. He brought down his fist upor
the table with an emphasis that startled the
deeanters and set the champagne goblets dane
ing on the festive board in his neighborhood
and the men Of Richmond present Joined In
the loud acclaim with which his burning Union
Ism was received by the pilgrims from New
England.
Can we, then, support Barnes In opposition
to Mayo for the mayoralty OF Richmond3 A
thousand times, no! Citizens of Richmond,
stick TO old DOE.
