ALDERMEN.

Was II ROMANCE Or WITcHcRAFr.-A
Sycamore tree was cut down a few days ago
on Ferry Point, and in mauling it up a lock
of hair was discovered in the centre of the tree,
about four feet from the ground. The hair
appeared TO be curl from a female head,
and must have been put iu its position some
fifty or sixty years ago. A hole had been
gouged to tho heart Of the tree, the hair put
in and the opening plugged up. The place
had afterwards grown over and the cavity
was found to be III the heart of the tree. The
hair appeared to be as fresh as if lately cut
from the human head.
The cause of this strange freak on the part
of some of the old inhabitants of the Point is
left entirely to conjecture, as no record Of the
event was found in the cavity Various are
the surmises OF those who have been acquain-
ted with its discovery some alleging it a
freak Of romance on the part Of some love
SICK swain of by-gone days; whilst the super
Stitious twist it into the doings of witchery.
we OF course, allow the reader to form his
own conjecture as to the cause OF the curl be-
Ing put In 80 strange place; and have no OBJ
Jection to the romaucers weaving the incident
into a love plot if they choose but we don't
believe in witchcraft.

JAMES BARRON HOPE, Eso.-We feared the

semohng OF an audience at the CRANKY Street
Cnurch, to hear the Essay of our townsman.
james Barron Hope, ou-the subject Of s'Poetry
considered as an Art"
10 this We were happily disappointed, as
quite large aud respectable audience was
present.
Mr. Hope occupied about forty minutes in
the delivery Of his Essay, and we have heard
out one sentiment expressed in regard to the
merits OF the production, and it was that of
high commeuiation.

The ELECTION IN PORTSMOUTH ON SATUR-
pAT,-The people of Portsmouth had the du-
" to perform on Saturday of electiug munic-
ipal officers, but owing to the conduct of the
Commissioners at one of the Wards, the duty
seems to have been imperfectly performed
1t is stated that owing to the fact that several
fights took place at the jackson Ward, the
Commissioners closed the polls and left about
8 o'clock. We.have no evidence to show that
the Commissioners were in any bodily dan
ger, and it would seem that they deserted
their post for some party ends,
If fight or two at an election precinct is to
break up an expression of the public senti-
ment, verify, we shall not have an election in
Virginia for years to come.
The citizens ticket, which carried the day
ON Saturday, was represented by those who
fully endorse the policy of President johnson,
anu the result may be viewed as triumph of
his friends. --..- ,.........,
