EACH SUCCESSIVE MAIL, as II reaches us,
brings exchanges containing comments re-
garding the Republican nominations at
Lynchburg last week, from which we learn
that Col. Hughes reputation as leading
journalist Of the South Is exceedingly wide
spread, and that his capacity as a political
loader Is undoubted by those whose duty 1t
has been 10 closely scrutinize the acts OF the
prominent men OF all sections. In brief, Col.
Hughes has national reputation, deseryedly
won by the pre-emlnence of his ability as
displayed In the several pursuits Of life that
he has followed, and the mention OF his name
as the choice Of the Republicans of the Old
Dominion Tor Governor has revived many
"reminiscences Of his past career, as well as
provoked innumerable pleasant and compl-
mentary illusions to him. This fact will not
DO without weight In the coming canvass. II
attracts attention to 1t aud, inspires a deeper
interest In the result than tho nomination of
any other man could have done. The party,
therefore, has reason 10 congratulate Itself
upon the wisdom OF It's choice. Now, let 1t

adverteuce, the Cincinnati Commercial makes
fair statement regarding political oppo.
nent, and places Its praise where II is deserved.
The following allusion to Colonel Hughes is
an instance OF this kind, and added to 1t is a
bit OF homely advice which we earnestly
commend to the Conservative press of yir-
ginia:
"The Republican candidate for Governor OF
Virginia, Col. Hughes made q fair hit when In
his nomination speech, referring TO the hue and
cry about carpetbaggers, he reminded his hear
era that "tbe Vlrginlans were the most universal
carpetbaggers In the world" and were well re-
oeiyed, especially In the North, where they make
their way into once with remarkable facility.

MEMPHIS,
x q
Two Fairs and No Races.

We clip the following from the Memphis
Avalanche Of Non 'ay last:
It is generally understood the Chiak2saw
Jockey Club viii not give racs meeting
this fall, but in lieu of races, the fun loving
public will be entertained with two agricut-
tursl fairs-one under the auspices of he
Shelby County A. and III. Society; the 9TH
or under the direction Of the colored people,
who have, it is said, obtained permission t.
hold their first fair at the same place and
shortly after that Of the &. and VI. Society.
In view OF this arrangement, it will not be
possible for the Jockey Club to give 2 race
meeting, unless o,her grounds can be 90
tanned, and this, we are told, il is impossi-
bic to do. 1t may, therefore, be considered
as settl ID that there viii be no races at
Memphis this fall.
II the Club could gi7e meeting, it
would, of course, take place in October,
commencing about he 22d day. At that
time he IuGustrial Expedition would be IN
foil blast and the city would be full OF
strangers. There is not Oaly no confiic5 OF
interest between races AID The Exposition,
but perfect harm by, and th5y work to-
gether TO mutual advantage. There has
never been time in the history OF Mem
phs when race messing could be given
with the p5ospscs of SO largo an attendance
as might reasonably be expected next fall.
There is hardly dOu5} but tn, meeting
would Re great success.
Shortly after the Iast spring meeting q
plan was set on foot by certain sciv mem
bers of the club to canvass amOngs5 the
solid men of the city for additional names.
These efforts, We learn, MT with eacour-
aging success. Many occasions were made
to the club, and the annual subscription fee
of members W raised by unanimous con-
sen! from twenty to fifty dollars year. The
club is entirely GU. Of debt, has .arger
membership than ever before, and is in evesy
way in more prosperous condition than at
any time since it was first organized. The
Ag lea tursl Society, however, and not the
JOCKEY Club, controls the grounds. When
ever, therefore, there is q conflict Of interest,
the latter must of course give way. The
only way we see in which this difficulty ca
be avoided is Tor tie club to purchase or
lease other grounds, erect buildings, grade
q course, and set up in business Oh its own
account. That, We dare say, viii hardly be
done this 5esr-st al eyents, lot in Time
for fu race meeting in October.

The ninth year of w. E. Wards Semin-
airy opens Sept. 4. The building is more
complete than it ever was. The Faculty
cannot be surpassed in experience and abil-
ity. DR.. j. NJ. Stafford, the able teacher of
science, has spent the summer North, bring
ing rare specimens for the cabinet and valu
able apparatus. He will be able to give to
classes TyndalPs experiments with light.
Parents will find here also the very best
advantages for their small children-a bright,
large room and teacher to themselves, ample
playground, croquet sets and tEDpin alley.
The little children feel, from the first, that
they are in the regular course-on the lad
der OF arning-and they catch the ambi-
tious spirit of the ascending school. They
get the benefit also of the public chapel SER
vices daily and the lectures on report days.
This school, L may low say, is Of some
Importance to Nsshville-one of its helps to
the building of large city and great educa-
tional centre. It paid little over $4,000
to teachers last year. 1t brought to Nash
vile over $4,000, which was distributed to
teachers, merchants, grocers, furniture deal
ers, flour dealers, railroads, hotels, gas COM
psny, coal and wood dealers, shoe dealers,
miliineTs, jewellers, dentists, doctors, paint
ers, msrketers, street cars, booksellers,
newspapers, druggists, chuIcnes, and to a
company of needy servants.
May not the great efforts put forth for
eight years to establish a liberal and
advanced school, interest the owners Of
property here? The Seminary has never
asked the city for money. Patronage in the
future, as in the past, is all it wants. 1t
will return the money in the broad and
complete education of your children, in the
growth and fame of our city.
