THE VIRGINIA ELECTIoN-The utter rout
of the Radicals in Virginia is II political event
of the very first magnitude. 1t is q long
stride toward a real and permanent restora-
ton of tue Union. In the Old Dominion,
military rule must now speedily give place
to civil government, and the result Of the
election insures that the destinies of the State
for the futule will be entrusted to the educa-
ted white population. The impecunous car
pet baggers who have gone down there with
no other object in view than the obtaining of
office through the agency of negro votes, will
soon be seen sneaking back to the obscurity
from which they emerged The hold of the
Union League upon the negroes will he COM
pletely broken, and the kindliest feelings will
soon spring up between them and The land
holders. Tuesdays battle decided the con-
test between native white Virgnians and the
combined forces of the carpet baggers scala
wags, and negroes In spite of all the aid
that could be rendered by Congress and the
Federal Government. the Radical forces were
utterly routed. Walker, the Governor elect,
is manof property, intelligence and honor;
and he will make a fair and just ruler. The
legislature elected is largely Conservative,
and that will secure the passage of equitable
and judicious laws and the election of two
statesmen to the Z. S. Senate. Virginia,
which gave the death blow to Know Moth
ingism when she elected Henry A. Wise, has
inflicted a mortal wound upon Radicalsm

MEssRs EDITORS The harvest is GEAR

with the prospect. The corn here, us we'll
as elsewhere, docs not give much promise.
The ground is very dry, and we need rain
very much.
Sunday last was the hottest day of the
season.
The two O'Clock train from New York
ran off the track here on Monday morning.
This was caused by striking car on a
sideling, which had telegraph poles on it,
projecting over on the other track. The
engine and tender were thrown on one side
and the passenger cars on the other. Strange
to say, no one was hurt. The engineer re-
manned on the engine until she landed in a
field near by. 1t was from no fault of the
company, but occurred from the poles hav-
ing become misplaced. The wreck was
cleared by ten O'Clock, and the trains run
ming as usual. At O'clock, they had the
engine on a track and bound to Whining
ton for repairs. There is no denying it, it
is one Of the best managed roads in the
country.
The past week the river has again been
full of RATS bound to Philadelphia and

The Coal trade is looking up again, the

RAILWAY ACCIDENT.-The train from New
York, due in this city at halfpast three o'clock
yesterday morning, was detained for seven
hours by an accident near Havre de Grace
A car loaded with telegraph poles had been
left standing on the track, and the train COM
ing south ran into it, completely demolishing
it. The locomotive and tender were thrown
from the track and down an embankment,
but the train remained on the track, the
coupling to the tender having broken. A
considerable number of the members OF
singing associations from New York were
on the train, but no personal injury was sus-
tained.-Balto. Gazette TUESDAY,

by committee appointed for that purpose,
were adopted:
Whereas, it hath pleased the Supreme
Being, in the inscrutable ways of his provi-
dence, to remove from our midst Brother
Archer II. Jarrett in manner calculated to
impress upon US most forcibly the great
truth it so much concerns us all to know,
that Sin the midst of life we are in DEATH"

Whereas, in accepting and bowling to the
will of Him, who is the Great Dsposer of
all events, we keenly feel the loss of our de-
parted brother, removed from us in the full
prime of his manhood and usefulness, there
fore,
Res0lced, That we have sustained an ire
parable loss in the death of our brother
Archer Ii. Jarrett, who was so greatly en-
deared to US in social intercourse, and whose
charitable impulses and practical bencvolence
of heart constantly shed upon his life the
light OF good works in his daily walks in
our midst.
Resoloed, That we have ever recognized in the
life ofour departed Brother the impulses of a
heart glowing with feryent desire to bene-
fit his fellow men-generously uncalculating
where his sympathies were enlisted by the
distress of the unfortunate and ever ready to
afford relief by counsel and charity to all
who were distressed.
Resolced, That our heartfelt sympathes are
extended to the be:eaved companion, whom
he hath left behind him, in the great afflicton
that has befallen her.

The Vsirgisaia Election.

The event of last week was the Virginia
election. 1t was an experimental attempt,
beyond all question, to force upon the people
of that State form of government and class
of rulers, as conditions precedent to their ad-
mission into full communion with the
rest of the States, that would fasten the
shackles of the Republican party upon them
for all time TO come 1t is sufficient cause
of congratulation to know that the attempt
has utterly and signally failed. We do not
congratulate ourselves so much that the VIC
tory achieved there was Democratic victory,
for it can scarcely be SO called. 1t is the
preparation, however, for the future triumph
of that party, and has laid the foundation for
the spread of its doctrines among the peo
pie of that State. This contest had deeper
significance than mere contest for the su-
premacy of any particular party, 1t was the
struggle of people for political existence
"a people that were threatened with annihi-
lation of the right to make laws for them
selves, on the ground of past political often
ces. 1t was an assault upon them, which
they have more than repelled We sincerely
believe that they have inflicted blow that
is a mortal one to the unrighteous designs of
the Radical party upon the people of the
whole South. In the history of this country
it has been the part Of Virginia to lad in
many important events, from the period of
the Revolutionary war down to this time
wisely not, it isnot proposed here to discuss.
If it has been reserved for her, in her recent
ly PROSTATE condition, to arise again and
show the country that even with the negro
vote thrust upon the people unwillingly the
cause of the Republic is still not to be de-
SPARED Of her destiny may yet be o brilliant
one in the future. Those who were elected
to the chief Offices, on last week, WERE many
of them, beyond all doubt, not the men whom
the State that nurtured Washington, Jefer-
son and hosts of other brilliant names, would
of her own free and untrammelled choice
have selected for the positions they now oc-
cupy. But the times have changed, and, un :
fortunately, it was necessary for that people
to somewhat change. They have done their
best, and that best augurs much hope for the
future.

FINE OATs.-Mr. ]. H. Quimby, residing

a very fine specimen of oats raised by him
this season. They were of the variety called
the Norway oats" One seed raised thr-
teen stalks and another eleven, and each
stalk contains an average of two hundred
grains. Mr.. Quimby informs us that he
sowed two bushels of these oats ON one and
half acres of land, and expects to raise at
least one hundred bushels to the acre. This
variety was never before cultivated in this
vicinity. Farmers would do we'll to give
this their attention, as the introduction of so
prolific variety would be great benefit to

To the Voters of Hartford County.

The question has been of late repeatedly
asked whether or not l intended to be a can
didate for the State Senate at the election to
be held next November. To those who have
made the inquiry of me | replied affirmative
ly and as deem it to eproper that the pub
lie at large should be made acquainted with
the fact, | take this method of doing so. In
thus announcing myself as candidate, | will
avail myself of the opportunity to return my
heartfelt thanks to the people of Hartford, for
the high honor conferred upon me in electing
me to the State Senate in 1867, with the
knowledge that the chances were even that l
would continue member of that body for
four years but it has so happened that in
drawing lots for the longer and shorter terms,
| drew the latter. My now becoming can
didate will allow the people of the county an
earlier opportunity TO pass upon me as their
representative in the State Senate, than if l
had drawn the longer term and am truly
satisfied that such is the case, because if my
course had been such as not to merit their
appreciation, | would have no right to con-
tinue their representative. Ifit has, | trust
/ shall have the proud satisfaction of having
their endorsement
Whether so honored or not 1t will always
be to me most agreeable reflection that no
act of mine, while member of the Senate,
was dictated through desire to serve any
mere partisan purpose, nor performed with
an eye to future personal or political advan-
tage the belief that it would promote the
interests Of the State, or of the county more
Immediately concerned, was sufficient for
me.
Through life Democrat but always en-
tertaining those conservative principles
which are the very foundation of true Re-
publicanism,.it is scarcely necessary for me
to pledge to the people of my county, who
know me so well, that if honored by having
the opportunity, shall in the future as in
the past, devote the best enereies I possess
to advance every interest that may conduce
to the advantage of my county and State;
and will add, that if | should be their choice,
whatever influence may happen to possess
in the appointments to Office shall be used
in behalf of those Of my constituents who
would be the choice of the people, they had
the selection, as far as it can possibly be as
certained.
