The Fredericksburg Scr gives Il long ac-
count Of IN enthusiastic Conservative meet
ing held in King Gcor.." county on last
Thursday. Vhc Stdr'$ account says:
judge Crii,hcr, candidate for the State
Senate. first addressed the meeting. lie had
no doubt of the ability of the Conservative
party 10 elect him by Il handsome majority
il every man will do his duty. He said that
on a former occasion he had asked Mr.. John
BlaXton, ms opponent, Whcthcr,i elected,
he would vote for Il SOcial-cquallty bill. and
me positively refused to answer. Aud why :
Because ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS of his constitll-
cncy were negroes. lie urged every ton>er-
yatjve 10 do his Whole duty in this canvass,
and warned them Of the fatal effect upon
the prosperity Of Virginia in the event her
state government fell into Radical hands.
He promised vigorous campaign on bis
uayt. He spoke for about an hour, and was
frequently appIaudcd.
MIR. Daniel then came forward amid Ion"
and continued cheering.
He said that he was present to-day not to
make set speech. but to talk calmly. delibc-
rarlv. and earnestly to the people of old
King George. He had no doubt of the
triumph int election q: the State ticket, but
he said that without Il Conservative Lcgi>la-
lurc it would be, indeed, 4 barren victory.
He earnestly advocated unaninity in the
Conservative party, and said that it was 10
time for men 10 let their personal feelings
against Il candidate Of the party cau>c them
10 withhold their votes. Principles, not
men, should actlmtc every Conservative in
this canvass.
He paid his respects to Independent cam
didatc>, saving they were only Radicals I'M
der another name, and didn't have the collr-
arc to acknowledge it. He urged upon
every man 10 see his ncighbor and ascertain
if he has registered, and if not, induce him
10 do 50. and tlcn not fail TO see that he
votes. He very apt)y alluded 10 thar class Of
Conservatives who said they couldn't posi-
biz support this or that nominee OF 'hc party
bccal>c he was not their choice, and besides,
he did this thing, and said thus ana so.
which is very rcpugnant To their refined SEN
-ib;litic>. These >upcr-nlcc pc0pi" hold
court in their own hearts under their re-
>ncc.ahlc WA.>tcoatS. and arrogates to them
selves Il degree OF independence and self
inheritance thu. is really astonishing. They
observe the mass Of the party they profess
10 ac; with acQuc>clHG IN The Qtcl>ion OF
their rruuIarir chosen conventions, yet their
,riYiOu dictates TINT these are al Il parcel OF
fools and KNOW not what they do. lie re-
viewed Mr.. Hughcs'> nomination speech
at some length, pointing out many rcmarka'
bic and false ideas expressed therein. lie
REGARDED the Importance OF securing Con
scryativc Legislature Of infinite more im'
pertancc than the State ticket.
Mr.. Daniels remarks were well received,
As indicated by frequent applause. Old
King George is in earnest, and we fully cN'
pect Il good report from her on the fourth
Tuesday i'll November next.
