DEMOCRATIC SENATORIAL NoMINA--
TIoNs.-The Democrats of this Senatorial
district having been in labor this morning,
have brought forth the following, which,
we are disposed to think, will never eda on
holiday.
For The Senate-Thos. II. Wynne, Colo
mel j. X. Connolly, and Alexander Q. Hol-
liday.
: The latter is from Henrico, who was vig-
orously opposed by Charles L. Workman,
Esq. The capitalists have lost their jack,
and the game seems to be against them.
Wehave received the following as the re-
suit of the Democratic gathering held this
morning:
For The House Of Delegates-W. S. Gil
man, VIM. Lovenstein, j. 7. brown, Jas.
Dooley, j. +. Meredith.
If we can't wax this little concern, with
the sort of men we have got, why, then the
Republican party of Richmond had better
collapse.

MONROE WARD SHOWING ITs RE-
CoRD.-The Democrats of Monroe Ward
had !" a rousing old fashioned meeting'' last
night, while Mr.. Fisher tells us " Chat at
the previous meetings held in this Ward
there have been considerable FRAUDS
practiced-the tellers having found more
ballots cast than persons IN the house."
Not only were imputations of this sort
cast upon the nominating ballots of that
ward last election, but there were strong
suspicious that when election ballots were
cast, that there were more ballots found in
the box than there were persons outside Of
the house. If the suspicious were correct,
we hope the honest men, not only of that
ward, but of the city, who belong to the
party in power, will see to it that we have a
fair election this fall. If your party wins
fairly, we will checrfully submit; and if we
win, why let us have the benefits of the
election. Let there be no box-breaking or
stufling, but let us have good humor and a
fair fight.

Local Notes.

-Governor Walker yesterday appointed
j. l.. Stern notary public for Richmond.
The man who cut off that mules ears,
that was trotting through our streets yes
terday, was a brute, and deserves to be
cropped himself.
We like Jurors some times, but well
directed charge of powder and lead, would
be Of service in Kidding the community OF
some of its fattening pests.
Moonlight nights are the order now.
They afford great joy to romantic lovers
everywhere, and to all our friends on west
Broad street, whether romantic lovers or
not.
We learn o number Of interesting mat
ters are before the grand jury to-day, and
that no efforts will be wanting to investigate
the conduct of parcel of dirty whelps, who
have recently been engaged in robbing some
Of our citizens.
Police Justice White furnished the
Hastings Court with two new subjects this
morning-William Hargrove, charged with
assaulting and cutting Ferdinand Newson,
and Singleton Peasants, charged with as
saulting and cutting Nancy Peasants.
Both are colored.
We think the ''tidal wave" sensation
has had a pretty good run for q joke, and
we hope its author will now 'come out, y
and thus relieve the anxiety of the nervous
and put stop to the annoyance" which
it occasions the scientists. Some people are
not satisfied unless they have one good joke
a year, but those who have so readily re-
covered from the 'Cardiff giant' sell of
last year need not despair of a speedy res
toration from the effects of the "t tidal
wave"

THE BURNING IN DINwIDDIE.-We
obtain from the Petersburg hder the fol-
lowing additional particulars of the burning
of the house and barn of Rush Burgess,
ESQ.,, on his Dmwiddie place:
s Mr.. Burgess was walked up at the hour
designated By Il e barking of his dog. He
arose and went out and found his barn,
about fifty yards from the residence, in
flames. Finding it impossible to arrest the
speed of the fire, Mr.. Burgess attempted to
save his horse, which was in the stable, but
failed in the endeayor. Subsequently, the
blazing shingles which were blown from
the roof of the barn by the stiff breeze pre-
vailing, set the residence on fire, and it
was wholly destroyed, with the exception
of bed and bedroom furniture in one of
the apartments. The fire was evidently
the work of an incendiary.
"Ihe property so destroyed was insured
in the Liverpool and London and Globe
Insurance company, as follows: 81 200 on
the house, and 81 200 on the barn. Capt
John d. Young, of the house Of Messrs
r. A. Young Il Bro, agents for the COM
pany in this city, promptly visited the
scene of the conhagraton yesterday, anc
made arrangements for the payment Of tn,
amount for which the property destroyeC
was iusured.o

MIR. PORTER CORRECTION.

: Our article of yesterday, headed "Nlr.
Porter and the Eaquaer,o contained ex-
pressions which were inadvertently and in
aptly chosen. We do not desire to be un-
derstood as asserting that Mr.. Porter is
pledged to bis friends to write no further
cards.
1t has always been his rule, which, like
all rules, is subject to exceptions, to abstain
from newspaper cards and controversy; but
this rule has been established by Mr.. Por-
ter from his own sense Of propriety and
from motives Of policy. taH
Neither do we wish 10 be understood,
as our hurried writing of yesterday might
imply, that Mr.. Porter is simply opposed
to "negro supremacy" because it would
exclude him from political position. He
is, of course, opposed to it, as all good
Republicans are, because it is wrong, and
contrary to the genius of our free institu-
tions, to inaugurate either white Or a
black mans government. The govern
ment, National and State, should be made
and conducted by all and for all the peo-
pie.
1t is announced as a fact that there is not

HANDSOMELY DoNE.-If we were a
horse, we could be luxuriously fed this
morning, but as we are not, we must be
satisfied with feasting the eye.
Mr.. John b. Davis has sent us four cars
of corn, that we are going to send to the
richest county i'll the State, (Roanoke,) and
defy the farmers Of that county to compete
with them in size and quality. If McCaull
has anything in that line to exhibit, let him
begin early to call for specimens.
The beautiful boquet, too, which graces
our table, might well be the envy of our
lady friends. We advise the florists of
Richmond to take lesson from the indi-
vidual who has shown so much taste and
Judgment in its arrangement.
We thank you, Mr.. Davis, and although
you needed a little poking to remind you OF
our existence, we cheerfully accord you the
honor you have so richly won. But for
the crowings of that Democratic Gilman,
over his good, and our bad luck, we would
have spared you, but to be rejoiccd over by
a Democrat we can't stand; even in the
matter of corn and flowers.

He will be succeeded by Mr.. Henry G. Tinsley

VIII continue, but in a different department,
In the publication Of a journal differing
politically with the Enquirer, our inter-
course with Mr.. Chesterman has been of
the most agreeable character. We have
ever found him agreeable, polite and accom-
modating, and while we regret to part
with him, in the position he has held for so
long time, we extend him hand of well
come in the new. 1t is, indeed, pleasant to
dwell together in unity, as fraternity, even
though at times it becomes a duty to
scramble and fight before the public.
