is scarcely necessary for us to say that we
give the following from the Chatham Trt-
b,tne, not Us endorsing it-for we know no
thing of such things-but to keep our read
ers well informed rs to what is going on in
the political word. The 157bune's article
seems to indicate that there are aspirants to
Office near Chatham
HOFF1cE MANuFACToRY.-The headquar-
tiers of this department for Virginia are SAID
to be for the present at the Greenbrler
White Sulphur Springs, no suitable place
being afforded within the State with ad-
vantages such as this favorite foreign resort
offer TO political invalids. Here the politi-
cal health and constitution are built up in
men whose natures heretofore have refused
| to yield sufficient to common treatment at
the hands Of common people at home. But
| if office be desired now, let the hungry
| seeker take 4 trip to the White Sulphur.
| This is now the only establishment recog--
nizcd for the manufacture of officers ana
bin men for Virginia and what is done at
this place is done, and amounts TO law.
The masses have no voice here; they are
entitled to nothing. Let them attend to
their crops, their shops, and their aVoca-
tions at home. The kid-gloye gentry who
assemble at the White Sulphur have Ill
charge the important affairs of State, and
the various important offices will be hlled
by them. 1t is from this popular Watering
place that the country receives 1nforma-
ton, telling the people who are the big
men. We hear through special correspond
ents writing from that place that Hon. So
and So is here and, by the way, 1t is ac-
knowledged in all quarters that he is to be
our next United States SENATOR or men,
Der of the next Congress, or Governor:
"Fortunate is that man who, desiring
office, can raise the funds TO sPend SUM-
mer at the Greenbrier White"

A DEspEaADo HUNTED DowN.-The San
ia Cruz Times of September Sd, has the fol-
lowing A dispatch was received in this
city yesterday, stating that Faustina Lorin-
zana, of,e Of the most notorious horse thieves
in the country had been shot at Santa Bar
bara by the Sheriff of that county who was
out endeayoring to arrest him for what seem
ed to be the aim Of his life-stealing horses
The man, Lornzana, was well known in
this county, having committed many depre-a
dations hereabout on the stock of our farm
ers. Some six years ago he and two others
cruelty murdered John Sloan, at Arana
Gulch, about half way between this place
and Sequel He was sYrcsted and tried for
this murder, but by some reason was ac-
quilted One of his partners in crime, how
ever, (Jose Rodriguez) was convicted and
sent to the pententiary. This is one of the
most cold-blooded murders ever perpet,ated
in the State, and created great excitement at
the time. Lorinzana, we are informed,
stole some horses near San Jose short
time since, and passed through this place on
his way south, and detective from that
place was here on his track few days af-
terwards. Lorinzana has always been re-
garded as a desperate character, and very
few well-dsposed citizens will regret his
tragic end, for he has only fulfilled the pre-
dictions of those who knew him best-dyine
with his boots on.

cloth as the following "well authenticated
instance
"ln the Office of Wisconsin journal there
is compositor who sets type so rapidly that
the friction Of his movements fuses the lead
en- embems in his ''stick, making them SOL
id, like stereotype plate. The only way to
prevent this is to have his case submerged
in water; and the iapidity of his motions
keeps the water boiling and bubbling SO that
eggs have been frequently boiled in the
space box. Pipes lead from the bottom Of
his case to a boiler in the press-room, and
the steam generated by the fast compostor S
movements runs the power-press. In day
he set so much that it took all hands, from
editor to devil, two weeks to read the proof,
and it wasn't his good day for setting type
either"

LOOK AT HOME.

Should you feel inclined to censuro
Faults you may in others view,
Ask your own life, ere you venture,
II that has not failings too.
Let not friendly VOWS be broken
Rather strive friend to gain;
Many word, in anger spoken,
Finds sure passage back again.
Do not then, in idle pleasure,
Trihe with a brother fame;
Guard it as vaulted treasure,
Sacred as your own good name.
Do not from opinions blindly;
Hastiness to trouble tends,
Those of whom we thought unkindly
Oft become our warmest friends.
