Too THIN Tho Richmond papers deny
that Col. Withers denounced the free school
at Petersburg 10 1869. He may not have
dene SO at that particular place, but he Ger.
tainly did denoa,ece it somewhere in Virgin,
ia in speech about that time, for we re-
member to have read it then, bu. cannot
now locate the place where his. speech was
made.
1t is we'll known that he is opposed to the
McGuffey series Of School Books, and if e.
ected It. Governor will use his influence to
have them thrown out of the Public Schools
and the University series substituted. This
would i'm pose a heavy expense upon the
poor people Of the State, and be almost as
disastrous as the e1purgation of the Free
School system.

1t is we'll known that the leaders Of the
Conservative party are in heart aud mind OPP
pissed TO the Free School Law and the Re-
obstruction acts, and that to-day, if they
had the power, they would blot them out Of
existence. Will the friends of those laws
eatrsst their execution with those who are
opposed TO them? They may say that they
acquiesee in them, but it is from fear Of the
:ople. Let them again get the power, and
the Free School law will be dead letter in
Virginia. We know how it is executed
throughout the State now. Beware how
you confde in its enemies.

The Spectotor joins IN the chorus about
Hughes being duelist. Mr.. Hughes is op-
posed to dueliug, but he was compelled to
fight or allow himself to be back-guarded
out Of the State because he believed the Re-
publicans was right. He risked life in de-
fence Of free thought and free press
The last canara is an electioneering trick Of.
dying party, to drive votes from him. It
is most too thin. AS to his being ineligible TO
the Office Of Governor, the people will do
with him. as the late Col. Baldwin propose
ed to do about Col. Withers in 1868
sElect him, and talk about the eligibility
question afterwards" There is not much
doubt Of his election, aud none Of his taken
his seat in that event. So don't ssshame9' So

chairman Of the Republican Executive COM
mittee at Lyuchburg, addressed letter to
the Attorney General, james G. Taylor, call
ing his attention to the fact that the usage
at the different colleges in Virginia was diff
terent, aud that at Washington & Lee and
Roanoke colleges, ard probably others, the
registrars registered the names of students,
while at the University of Virginia, they did
not. Capt. y desired the Attorney Geper-
eral tc give an Interpretation to the regstra
ton law that would serve as instruction
TO the reglstrars,so US to make the action in
such cases UNIFORM. Mr.. Taylor declined to
give the instruction., agssrtng his confidence
IN theregstrars,an and that :hey would discharge
their duties. This miserable subterfuge was
met by Capt. Early by scathing criticism,
showing the partizau bias of the law officer
Of the State, and that he was willing to re-
malu silent when grave matter Of public
concern was in doubt and imperatively cali
ed for his opinion.
What the actor of the registrars will be at
the places indicated, Of course we cannot say.
But the action. or want of action Of the At
torn ey General, needs no further comment.
1t is a low party manouvre, and Capt. Early
deserves the thanks of the people of the state
for exposing it.

THE BAGGAGE SMAsHER ONCE MORE
We gather from our exchanges that the
potato bug has begun its annual operations;
that the flies are going to be a greater pest

traordinary one for the development of the
mosquito; and that grasshOrpers aIe eat

known citizen of that place who in 1S45
married an estimable lady there: For a
while they lived happily together, but on
account of family dissensions in lS4S they
signed an agreement that they weuld live
apart. The fruit of their union was a
daughter, who remained with the mother.
Some time after the husband, presuming
he had been legally divorced, married again,
and shortly thereafter his wife followed h.s
example. In time the gentleman's second
wife died, leaving him a son, and It few
years ago he again married. The first and
third wives are still living, but few DAYS
ago the gentleman died, leaving the bulk
of Lis property, amounting to S35. OOC, to
his last wife and family, consisting of two
children. Since the death of the gentle
man 1t has transpired that. not having been
divorced from his first wife, he committed

THE CURSE OFO'KELLEY.

Il
The Course of 0'Kelley," though occa-
sfonally alluded to. has perhaps never been
seen in print by great majority Of our
readers. Camac O'Kelley, the celebrated
Irish harper, went to Doneraiie, in the coun-
tv of Cork, where his watch was pilfered
from his fob This so raised his ire that
he embalmed the people of tLat place in
the following
"sTRING OF CURSES"
Alas! how dismal is my tale:
7 Insr my watch in Doneraile-
Nv Dublin watch, my chain and seal (Sdte),
PiIfered at once in DOneraile.
Nav fr and birthstone never fail
To fail in showers on Doneraile;
Nav all the leading fiends assail
The thieving town of Doneraile;
As Iightnings flash across the vale,
So down to hell with Donerale;
The fate of Pompey at Pharsale,
BE that the curse of Doneraile
Nav beef or mutton, lamb or veal (raIe),
Be never found in Doneraile,
But garlic soup and scurvy kale
BE still the food for Doneraile;
And forward as the creeping snail,
TIL industry be at Doneraile;
Nav Heavens chosen curse entail
on ragged, rotten Doneraile
Nav sun and moon forever fail
To beam their light on DOneraiie; is
May every pestilential gale
Blast that cursed spot called Doneraile;
May no sweet cuckoo, thrush, quail
BE ever heard in Doneraile;
May patriots, kings, and common veal
Despise and harrass Doneraile;
May every post, gazette, and mail
sad tidings bring of Doneraile;
May vengeance fall on head and tail
From north to south in DoneraIle;
May profit small and tardy sale
Still damp the trade of Doneraile
May fame resound a dismal tale
Wiener she lights Oh Doneraile;
May Egypts plaques at once prevail
To thin the I1uaves at Doneraiie
May frost and snow, and sleet and hail,
Benurnb each joint in Doneraile;
May wolves and blood-hounds trace and trai
The cursed crew at DoncTaile;
May Oscar, with its fiery fail,
To atoms thrash all DoneraiIe
May every mischief fresh and stale,
May ali from Belfast to kipssle,
Scoff curse and damn you, Doneraile;
May neither flour nor oatmeal Coatmole)
Be found or known in Doueraile
May want and woe each JOY curtail
/ That e'er was known in Doneraile
May not one coffin want n nail
That wraps rogue in DoueraiIe;
May all the Iogues that rob and steal (StGlc,
The gallows meet in Doneraue;
May mischief big as a Norway whale
O'erwhelm the kuaves in Doucraile;
May curses whole and by retail
Pour with full force on Doncraile;
May every transport wont to sail
y convict bring from Douerale;
May every churn and milking pail
Fall dry 70 slaves in DoneraiIe;
May cold and hunger still CONCEAL (cougale)
The stagnaut blood of Donerniie;
May every hour new woes reveal CreraIc)
That hell reserves for Douaraile;
May every chosen i'll prevail
Ger the iInps of DoueraiIc
May the Inqusition straight impale
The rapParees of Doneraile;
May SodOm's curses now prevail
And sink to ashes Doneraile:
May Charon's boat triumphant sail,
Completely manned, from DoncraiIe
Oh may my couplet never fail
To find new woes for DOneraile
And may grim Pluto's inner jail
Forever groan with D0neraile.
