Following is from the Virginia Chro7'-
;cle.s report Of Booths election:
When the President announced that
the Joint Assembly would now proceed
to ballo. for Senator for the long term
an intense eagerness was manifested by
veery one, both on the floor and in the
lobbies and galleries. As each Senator
voted Secretary Shakieford in clean
voice repeated the name for whom the
vote was cast. In the Senate roll there
was no change until McCune's name
Senator from Solano, was called. Their
every one held their breath for mo-
msnt, wondering whether he would again
refuse to vote. or vote for Farley Oh
Booth. When McCune answered
Booth" there was al irrepressiblt
buzz. Democrats ana Republicans
glanced at each other with dlsmay on
their coun:enances. The Senate roll
was finished without any other change
Booth having received IL, Farley l.
Shafter ii and Irwin l.
Tie Assembly roll was called with nc
change until klotz's name, from Shasta
was called. Klotz rose and explained
that he had voted for Farley previously
but had never pledged himself to him
He wouiti now vote for Booth. Higbis
was still absent. Russell also voted fol

JONES NOT IN S.cEA&ENro.-Ws pro-
nounced incredible statement in the
Sacramento Record that Senator Jones
was in Sacramento working for Booth.
This opinion of ours is confirmed by the
following which We clip from the Sacra-
mento correspondence Of the aan FRAN
cisco Chronicle:
TIL: story ...i.t Jones is here working
for Booth is untrue. He is not here,
and has not uttered word IN favor oi
Booth. Tomorrow there will be another
ballot, with probably a similar result to
that of to-day, though some hope iol
further accessions - Booth. On the
other hand, the Republicans are con-
stantly circulating rumors OF probable
defections from Booth 3 ranks.

issue Of that paper Of the 18th We are
led up TO the confession itself by regular

the first instrllment of the same will be
forthcoming tomorrow. Ms. james

following which we clip FROM thasrarer;
Among other things necessary to ex-
Dlain in this introductory article, the
condition of Matheney at the time ne
made his last confession, would seem to
demand attention. Mr.. Sharon informs
usthat he had abandoned al hope OF
executive clemency; that he appeared
thoroughly penitent and seemed ANXIOUS
TO unbarden his mind, and rs far as pos
eible atone for his sins before departing
this life. He requested that copy OF
his confession be sent to his parents. and
gave the address OF his father, as "a.

THE ELECTION OF NEWTON BOOTH
TO THE UNITED STATES SEN
ATE.

ATE.
The telegraph brings Us the news OF
the election of Governor Newton Booth
To the United States Senate. The event
dies not surprise Us; but, we are none
the less sorry over it. We regret 1t be-
c,use Mr.. Booth attitude is that OF the
champion Of an element in politics
which seeks for solicitation not through
a generous AID nlanful strife in the field
o: po,i.ical combat, but, rather. through
mean and spitefu! system OF personal
detractions and an equally mean and
contemplate system OF supplying ar'i-
fetal s.imulants to popular prejudice
and unreason. This mode Of warfare
is the very opposite Of the heroic; the
yer~ furthes. removed IRON all that
which is sturdy, genuine and chi:airic.
The triumph. in this instance. is that OF
the banded conspirators of the Satanic
press The lesson taught. Is that all
they who are wanting in that stamina
which braces man againS. phenoTne-
nal tide in the affairs of public life had
better seek speedy association with this
so-callel Independent movement Mean
time well-bal;as.ed men Will not be
swep. off their fee. by the unusual aid
irregular torrent. The victory OF yes
ter,iay is no more Il decisive turn IN the
general current Of politics than a diver
sion in an isolated part of a narrow
battle field is the final shock VI wtar be
tween vast contending armies. SAL
perhaps it would be well fer tie old men
and women and children and non-conl-
batants of politics to seek temporary
safety with, and shelter from, these
exulsaut babblers of Reform. AS 20 Mr.
Booth, orr not important opinion OF him
has been freely made known. We regard
him as fit champion Of the very narrow
and petty issues upon which he has been
elected. 1t is perhaps well tina. such as
he should be at hand to play the part CT
u5ufS-Ucdi ~ ioii'i.'.A
which none OF It's advocates can explain
save by the repetition Of 6 mere eplthet
or the retailing OF q shop-worn catch
word. II IS safer to have girSeilF

sen:ips the clements Of political chaos
than that Il more brawnv, ingenious. az

ola Senator C: the United States (Only
chaos is none the more an acceptable
condition simply because ii is represented
bv a literary costermonGer with the
small, acidulated maiignities of
b,irhted school-narm.) The triumph Is
the triumph of rnalevolent, back-oit-
in, perverted Press-Oligarchy, and The
Mace gained by their fsure-head Is one
where he will be forced into associations
and contrasts in the presence OF whlc
the weak and artificial devices by whose
employment he has gained a fctItions
prominence in public affairs will be
counted at their true value. We are sin
cers in expressing the belief that no man
more lily proportioned to sustain his
reputation in the Senate Of the United
States ever found himself elected to that
severe and exactinS poSition-a position
where a mans true measure Is instantly
taken and where all mere superficiaiities
and pretence are weighed and appraised

H1aKwAYMAN ARRESTED. - Detective
Ben Lackey and officer Bob Morrison
of this city last night arrested George
Lane alias George Lester, an old horse
thief, highwayman and State Prison
graduate, on a charge of having partlcl-
pated in the robbery Of the Colfax and
Nevada City stage. soHe weeks slnce.
Morrison took the prisoner to California
last night Virginia Chronicle.
Officer John Newhouse informs Us
that this same man Lester was arrested
here, a few nights since for some dis
turbances made by him in and about
Marshall's faro game. But the sherif's
Office not being provided with descrip-
ton O; Lester and he being personally
unknown to Swift and Newhouse he was
not recognized and SO was allowed to
leave town. 1t seems that be was, sew
eral years ago, n policeman or deputy
Constable at Gold Hill. And yet he had
the haraihood to go to Virginia and take
the chances of being detected and taken
into custody. Of course Ben Lackey,
who is very keen professional detec-
five, would be on the watch out for
man for whose arrest there was reward.
Sorry that so fat take slipped through
our officers fingers.

GENERAL HAMPToN's LEcTURE.-The lee
turo of General Wade Hampton, on the "T.,fr
and Character of General Robert f. Lee .
on Tuesday night, was as successful as
could have been expected, considering the
threatening appearance of the weather.
The Court room was well lighted, and on
the drapery in the rear of the Judges bench,
was suspended handsome portrait of Gene
raj Lee, surrounded by wreath of flowers.
The lecturer was introduced to the audience
by Henry d. Fanandis, Esq, and after some
brief but well chosen remarks, the General
began his theme. The room was comforta-
bly, filled, and the audience listened with
marked attention, interrupted by frequent
bursts of applause. The address itself was
scholarly and chaste production, and did full
justice to the exalted character of the great
Captain Although General Hampton himself
bore so active and distinguished part in the
stirring events he so graphically portrayed, his
remarks were singularly free from egotism
The amount realized will probably reach
about $780,

The COMPREHENSIVE Democrat
ic friends on the Eastern Shore are beginning
to be exercised over the COMPREHENSIVE, and
the Wicomico EdsternShorenaan hosts the
name of Col. Levin Woolford the present
worthy incumbent, for re- election. The East
ernsho7enen i'll making this announcement
urges that none but the best men should be
placed on the ticket, and says:
One of the most responsible positions is
that of Comptroller of the State Treasur;.
1t should be filled by man of unimpeacha-
bic character-one whose labors and vigilance
in the cause of our Commonwealth should
entitle him to the confidence of every taXpay-
er, and on whose record there can be no stain
or blot. The party can well boast of such q
man in the person of the present incumbent,
Hon. Levin Woolford He is man who has
served the people well, and whose enviable
record should be a sufficient inducement for the
party to demand q continuance of his valuable
services, whether he be candidate OF not
With this firm conviction on our part, we to-
day hoist his name at the head of our col
umns, believing that it would be to the in
terest of our noble party and the State in
common, to re-cect him at this particular
time.
