AS several times before, jeff. Da-
Wis comes in with his little speech
just in time to help the Republicans
IN their State elections This time,
ahough he is without donbt an old
idiot, his speech will be worth a
Thousand votes to the Republicans
OF Virginia. That he should always
happen TO avoid his treason and fol.
ly mt the moment when it will do
the most good might Justly excite a
suspicion Of Republican contrivance,
but it is doubtless one of the mystic
rious ways Of Providence that he
should be more useful to his race in
his imbecility than he was in the
days Of his pride and power. Itbut
illustrates the old proverb that moth
ing is made in vain. --Eranklin Re-
