lfaman will only continue to preo'c'
rain or snow day after day, he will after a
time, become just such prophet as those
excellent advisers who have Tor yeai'
counsellcd the Conservatives OF Vrglhia
to unite with the Northern Democrats ih-
asmuch as It is almost certain that we must
act with these in the Presidential campaign.
Because it will, perhaps, be advisable III
1871 or 1872 to unite our fortunes Wild
those of the northern Democratic party,
il docs not follow that those Bourbons
were right who, in 1860, opposed the ne"
movement and the withdrawal of Colonel
WRITER'S. We suppose the new move
above referred to is to he engineered py
those fuir-mindcd gentlemen who call tne
Conservatives of Virginia Conservative
Republlcans," forgetting very conveniently
that we were Conservatives III 1901 anu
1865, and as such were represented IN the
Democratic National Convention.
For our part. we have individually no
particular objection to State convention.
II would not at all hurt our feelings TO ne
called Democrats. We have always main
tanned that the talk about names was mere
twaddIe, bosh, and humbuggery, ana we
propose to be consistent by not raising
uuestion on the subject after our party
shall have assumed new cognomen. we
only object to such move now because we
are apprehensve that it might result IN
splitting the Conservative party in twain,
and because we can see no good purpose
which convention could possibly accom-
pish at present Why will not these rest
less Democrats consult prudence? If it is
office that they are after, we can tell them
that they will be grievously disappointed II
they supposed that when the name OF the
Conservative party is changed none but
Democrats of the cold issue" are to be
elected to office. Every man will continue
to stand upon his own merits, and the fact
that he was Democrat before the war will
not add to his merits in the eyes of his fell
low.citizenS. On the whole, we are dis
posed to think that the Democrats who are
probably the most restless now were not the
most Trustworthy in the days that are past,
and are therefore not safe advisers.

total restitution of timber. You see little

mostly second growth. Manufacturing

REV. ALBERT BARNEs.-This eminent

Saturday, aged seventy-two. Truly, q
prince and great man has fallen in Israel.
The name of Albert Barnes is more widely
known throughout the world than that OF
any Presbyterian minister of the present
age. For the last forty years the events OF
his ministerial life have been eminently and
closely connected with the history of the
Presbyterian Church in America. His

BANKRUPT LAw.-The United States Dis.
trict Court Of New Jersey has recently de.
cided that a lien on goods and chattels fol-
rent due, or which may have accrued to O
landlord under State law, for the promises
held by bankrupt, is not disturbed by the
provisions of the bankrupt act of March I'd,
1867. The court also held that the assignee
in bankruptcy must pay out of the estate
the reasonable expenses for the use and
United States marshal, for the storage and
sale of the bankrupt's property. A deci.
sion to the same effect has been made by
Chief Justice Chase.

THE report is again revived, with assur-
ances Of entire accuracy, that in the event
viding for the acceptance by the President,
in certain cases, Of the resignation Of any
United States Judge, and the granting of a
pension equal to his pay for life, Chief Jus.
tice Chase will retire from the Supreme
bench. The most prominent candidates
already named for the expected vacancy
are Mr.. Justice Miller and Senator Will

ter, however, has been connected with so

INCREASING THE TAX On WHIsKEY.-Soon

prospect of success, it is said. 1t is stated

increase, and that he will recommend to
Congress to take off the tax on what are
termed the necessaries of life, and put the

Nearly a Serious Accident.

We regret to learn that Mr.. Geo.
f. Davenport, teacher of the Public
Schools at Chillicothe, came near
meeting a watery death on
last Friday evening. Being in al
tendance on tho Teachers Institute
in session at Ottumwa, he left the
latter place By the D. Y. r. r., ex-
pcctiug to cross tho river fiom Com.
stock station, TO Chiilicothc. When
within a hundred feet Of the opposite
bank, the ice broke through, and un-
less Mr.. D., had had presence ofmind
and good swimming abilities he must
inevitably have been drowned, as
theic crumbled wherever he touched
Fortunately the cries he uttered
reached the cars of few residents of
Chillicothe, who were still at tho
river bank and he was rescued ut the
last minute, after having been in the
water nearly fifteen minutes. When
we consider the danger incurred, we
don't wonder that Mr.. Davenport's
usually cheerful visagc looks rather
lugubrious, but if it is any conso'a-
ton to him, we can assure him bo.h
from our own knowledge of him and
from what his neighbors say, that
we believe. Wapelio Co., as well as
his interesting Family, would have
sustained u serious loss. Mr.. d., has
been teaching at Chillicotho during
the winter, and is we believe Il uni
versal favorite.
