was q member of the first German
Parliament, and then OF the Prussian

clamor for q change Of the national
colors. They say that the black,
white, and red banner has no longer
any Significance. War was dgclared
BY France against North Germany:
South Gerthany GENEROUSLY fastened
to the assistance OF their northern
brethren. In view Of this noble con-
duct, it is an insult to them to carry
any longer q. sectional banner-a
banner almsst hestile to their brave
allies. The restoration, therefore, is
demanded OF the old imperial banner
Of Germany-black, red, and gold
which alone should be the symbol of

long and trying but during it all he
was submissive, accomplishing suf-

masculine virtues OF energy and en-
durance; in sickness be excelled IN the
feminine virtues Of patience and re-
signation. And the hopes and con-
solations OF religion sustained him
during his sick days AMI his dying
hour. His views of religious truth
were clear. He aseded not to be
told his duty, and his faith in Christ
was strong. His trust never waver.
ed, His soul without . doubt he
committed to his Savior's keeping
his family without d fear he lett in
the hands of God. Standing by his
dy ing bed we could not speak Of
death as an enemy, His departure
was not triumphant, but it was calm
and confident.

ANOTHER RADICAL CONVENTION IN HEN
RICo-Bo,cden Rcpudidted.-i'he result Of
the Radical Convention ut the county
courthouse on last Saturday was not all
satisfactory TO some who DarticipatCd there
in. ! few OF the disaftccted therefore
resolved to hold atiolher Cont ention, which
they did Yesterday noon. The second Con-
vention was ostcnsibly for the purpose of
filling vacancies on the ticket occasOned by
teciuatio,tS, but it really was to nominate
men who had no show before tnc regular
delegated Convention. Having been called
to order by Major $. l.. Annable, those
present proceeded to revoke the nominal
tions that did not please them. Lemucl j.
Bowdcn was deprived of the nomination
for ColnmonwealLh's Attorney, and Colonel
John w. jenkins was substituted. William
NJ. McGruder was then nominated for
County Treasurer, Instead of Dr.. ). X. Gill
mer: William J. Annable tor County Clerk,
and Henry Austin for Sheriff. Tile other
nominations were allowed to stand.
These proceedings were accompanied by
much disorder. and took place against the
earnest protest of the few respectable per-
sons present. Col. Norman Smith and DR..
Gilmer were so much eXasperated that they
holted, and do not hesitate to declare their
disgust ut what has transpired. We ought
to add that the meeting was secret one,
and even the fact of its assemblagc was
kept from the public until all was over.

nuisance in this city greater than another
it is the intoerabc fuss and hnllabalo Gre
atcd by the hotel portcrs at the depots.
They are particularly annoying to travellers
who reach the city at the Petersburg depot,
and Justice White did Il good deed OH yes
terIlay in lining five of them 81 each. When
they are made to know that their wages
will inevitably be dockcd for this offence
they will sing smaller than has heretofore
been their custom. so far from It's being an
advantage to hotel-keepers for their porters
to be baWlng the merits Of their different
houses into the ears of the weary, way
faring man, and pulling the clothes from ms
hack il is q positive drawback; and the
sooner they turn their attention to the con-
duet of their employees in this particular
the better will it canduce to their own in
