Conservative Meeting in Allegheny.

On Wednesday last, an enthusiastic meeting
was held in Covington, Allegheny county. to
ratify the nominations of Kemper, Withers and
Daniel. Jas. Burk, Esq, was President, and
Andrew Fudge, Esq, Secretary. An admirable
set Of resolutions was adopted, and the aoaole
vote Of the county was pledged to the support
of the Conservative ticket The meeting was
addressed by Gov. Jno. Letcher ard Colonel
Edmund Pendleton, who delivered able and
stirring speeches. Allegheny boasts that she
will be the banner county of the State. We pit
against her for that distinguished honor the
gallant counties Of Highland aud Bath. We
know that it will be difficult to wrest that honor
from Allegheny, for she is one of the truest
counties in Virginia, yet Highland and Bath
have no cause to despair of doing it, for Radical
ism has not been able to take root upon their
soil-it cannot live in the pure atmosphere of
those counties. AS heretofore, we reply upon
the counties of Bath and Highland to do very
handsome thing on the day of election.

The Meeting at Warrenton.

The meeting held at Warrenton, Fauquier
County, on Monday of last week, was glorious
one for the cause of the Conservative party
The appointment Ior holding meeting there
on that day was made by the Radicals, and it
was announced that speeches would be made by
Hughes and Ramsdell, the candidates, respec-
lively, Of that party for Governor and Lieut.
Governor. The Conservatives proposed to
meet them there and discuss the issues with
them, if they would agree to it, and General
Kemper and Col. Withers went there for that
purpose. Ramsdell did not appear, but Hon.
L. Ell. Chandler. a good stump speaker, who
has been engaged by that party to do the chief
speaking for it, appeared as his representative.
1t was agreed that Hughes should lead off, to
be followed by Kemper, and that Chandler
should then speak to be followed by Withers,
and that Chandler should have the privilege of
closing the discussion.
The speaking upon this arrangement then
took place, and the result OF it was that KEN
per and Wthers gained great and brilliant
triumphant over Hughes and Chandler, and a
greatly increased majority for the Conservative
ticket in that county is now assured.
We wish the opposing candidates could be
heard in similar discussions 10 every county in
the State. 1t would ensure the election of the
Conservative ticket by large majority
