PERsoxAL~-We were pleased to meet OIL
the Avenue on Saturday Oakley p. Haines, Esq,
editor and proprietor of that lively paper, the
Petersburg EEpress and DR.. J. b. Brooks one of
tho editors Of the now neutral Richmond ErdBi-
liner. Both gentlemen Weld facile pens, and
appear to be thoroughly RECONSTRUCTED, politi-
cally and physically. They represent affairs in
the Old Dominion as being anything but like the
piping times Of ante 6slium, or the exciting days
Of "Tippeebnoe and Tyler too, - but speak hope
fully OF tho good time coming for tho matter
Of States and statesmen.
TIE DAY.-We trust for the good order
and reputation Of Washington. that every voter
will deposit his vote for whatever party he

pursuing this course a great deal Of useless cavil
and angry discussion will DO avoided. We trust
also that no one will back what is termed his
Judgment" by n rash and foolish course Of betting;
for II neither advances nor retards the chances
Of either party. In conclusion, we would advise
all persons to keep perfectly "eool'-dont get
excited under any circumstances.
