To TheEdttor Of The State Journal:
The Republican convention of thi
county was held at the Courthouse on tn
4th instant, for the purpose of nominating
a candidate for our next house of delegates
The meeting was presided over by Mr.
| Aaron Commodore = one of our very
worthy colored citizens, Mr.. James j
| Mcdonald acting as secretary. There wert
six candidates. Captain j. L. Hes
kins, white gentleman, and staunct
and worthy Republican, having received
the highest number of votes, was declared
our candidate. The utmost decorum and
good feeling existed. Short speeches were
made by several gentlemen.
The editor of the Conservative paper Of
this county, who, by the way, is very
courteous gentleman, was present and an
earnest and eager bidder for our Republic

down to him by Mr.. Aaron Commodore
in very effective and telling speech, pro-
nouncing as false and malicious the yarn
that s>going the rounds of the Conscrva-
tive press and commented upon by their
public speakers, that the c0lo1ed people de-
sire n.ired schools and social equality.
Judging from the deafening applause that
greeted his utterances, it was evident to all
that he but re-echoed the sentiments of all
the colored people Of his county, This,
Mr.. Editor, from county with a majority
of more than 800 colored voters is a dead
shot and a death blow to the Canserva-
tives of this section; they have here, as
elsewhere in our state, urged the colored
man to demand all these things, while they
are barely willing to admit his right to
vote. The editor's friends deprecated his
purchase, and implored him not to stable
tho animal in his editorial sanctum, as his
tread is dangerous to "Conservs."
A large majority is predicted for Cap
tain Hoskins, Hughes, Ramsdell, and

as to attend to other business. Mr.. Platt

ton which he has shown in arranging the
affairs of this institution, in rescuing them
out of confusion, and in placing the bank
so soon in a working condition. We doubt
not its operations win be Of great service

panic, it is more than probable that there
would have been no suspension at all in its
operations. fte

CHARLOIIE COUNT1, a
October 6, 1873. !
To the Editor Of The State Journal: "
This was court day, but no session was
held on account of the illness of Judge
Bouldin from chills and fever.
Saturday and to-day were severely
rainy ones, but Sunday was fair and
warm. The cutting of tobacco has been
badly interfered with by this rainy
weather.
This afternoon Grange of the Patrons
of Husbandry was organized at this place
by Colonel ID. S. Curtiss, general deputy
of the N. G. for Virginia, after an ad-
dress by him on that subject in the
courthouse. The Grange is composed of
some of the most substantial farmers of
the county, including Major r. V.
Gaines, W. Read, w. Scott, q. R. Nor
ton and others. |. w. White was elected
master, and J. w. Morton secretary.
Those who were present last fall at the
joint meeting of farmers of North Caro-
lima and Virginia in Petersburg, will re-
collect that Major Gaines was chairman of
that convention, and presided with great
satisfaction. bNa
Earnest efforts are being made to estab-
lish other Oranges in this county, and in
adjoining counties--Mecklenburg, Prince
George, Nottoway, and in Louisa. The
work will go on in Virginia. 1t is nowhere
more needed.
Mr.. Barksdale, keeper of the Eagle
hotel. rendered the use of his upper par
lors to the farmers for the purposes of
initiation, and the Grange was there organ
ized. Any town or county in the state
which may desire to have Grange in-
stituted in their midst can be accommodated
by addressing the deputy at Washington.
