The Official returns show that in the Vir-
ginia elections 10000 white men did mot
vote for either candidate. This was the
natural effect Of a compromise policy.
In the Old Dominion there was every
temptation to follow mixed policy, as the
readiest way Of escaping from dangerous
and embarrassing position. The people
were exhorted by those whom they most
trusted and loved to aid In saving their
State from the Radical clutches The ne Wa
paper press, with but few exceptions, thun-
dered out tho same command And, never
theless, 5000 white men stayed away from
the polls and did not vote at all. t

n Provision Crops.

In another column We print letter from
Colonel D. Wyatt Aiken, in which the cues
tion is asked: Whether corn planting on
uplsnds in South Carolina and the cotton
belt will remunerate the planter? Colonel
Aiken discusses the whole matter carefully
and thoroughly, and we ars content to refer
our readers to his letter for the reasons for
and against the indisoriminate culture Of
corn. At the ssme time We may remark
that we believe that it is, at present, highly
important that the State should raise enough
food for men and animals to mako it un.
necessary to pay away for their purchase
the money derived frem cotton. When the
country is so settled that each section will
produce what it can produce to the best
advantage, and we can buy grain and meat
cheap in the West and sell cotton dear to
the East and to Europe, we shall be viii.
ling for all our planters to give all their
attention to the raising of cotton. But at
this time We think it best for every COUNTY
to make bread, meat and fodder enough to
supply the people, without recourse to for
eign markets. Ours, however, is the free
trade polioy-that each district should raise
what it can raise to tho best ADVANTAGE.

sumed by the remerseless flames. The young

or the mother. The remains Of Rev. Mr. Hal
lock make the best preserved relic Of hui
mapity IN the sad list. The limbs are gone,
but the trunk and head remain, The
thigh bones protrude through the crisn burnt
flesh, and indicate that the clothing on the
cushion OF the seat served as some protection
from the flames. The position OF the form
shows that the body rested easily in the seat
during the process OF combustion. The skull,
also, is quite perfect, although the extreme
heat had thoroughly dried the bone. The
sharp edges around the top where it is broken
seems as though there had been fracture.
This leads to the theory. that when the car
was broken up the tops Of the seats were
hurled violently forward, and some Of these
driving pieces crashed through his head,
brainlng him and causing instant death. 1t is
thought that he was not burnt alive, but that
he died some time before the flames reached
him. The testimony Of. those who last saw
the car, leads to the belief that nearly all the
victims were killed or stunned in the first ter.
rife crash, and that ncne were actually roasted
to death by slow fire as was at first supposed.
