The Sugar Planter says: lowing to our
continued sickness, we are enabled to pub

our prolonged robust health,we are enabled
to publish but a half sheet, too but it never
occurred to us to brag about it.

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT, Judge
Riycs, presiding. has been in session at Harri-
scnburg, Va, for week past. We understand
that quite a large number of cases have been
disposed OF. There were not many indiet-
ments made by the Grand Jury.
G. A Davenport, ar employee Of the Val
ley Railroad, who was arrested short time
since. charged with robbing the mail, was in
dicted and put on his trial.. He plead guilty,
and was sentenced to the penitentiary at Alba
my, N. Y, for two years.
Mr.. Ridgeway, of Warren county, charged
with violating the Internal Revenue law, was
found guilty, and sentenced to an imprison-
ment for one year in the county Jail and fine
of $1,000.
Mr. Frederick, of Shenandoah, charged with
selling one pint of spirits, in violation of the
Internal Revenue law, was found guilty, and
sentenced to an imprisonment of six months
ia the county Jail and fine of one thousand
dollars.
This last case caused considerable excitement
between the Court and jury. 1t seems that at
ter the jury had brought in verdict OF guilty.
and asccrtai:ling the punishment annexed to
such a violation. ten OF them informed the
Court in writing that had tlrey known the
punishment annexed to the crime, they would
not have agreed to verdict of guilt, where
to them, and ordered their dismissal as Jurors.
His action caused some excitement, bat lie
firmly maintained the dignity of the Court.

Let the people by degrees divcst themselves
OF the power to regulate public affairs through
the ballot-box, snathcy will fnd that it Will
not be long before the Free School system OF
Virginia will be so restricted as to render it
worthless. That is tliesim of many OF these
innovations. They have, no sympathy with the
advancement and cducston Of the masses
through the agency OF Public Free Schools
The expansion and cultivation of the capacities
Of the poor children Of the State, dissipates the
distinctions and privileges which riches secure
and opens the field for honorable competition
between all classes. Education is the master
leveler of this progressive age, and the diffusion
Of its benefits, through, the agency of the Pub
lie Free Schools, is precisely what the masses
want. Let them beware then, how they listen
to the lea lings Of designing demagogues and
the wicked deception that is attempted by false
calculations.
Our advice to every man III tho State, who is
interested In material and intellectual progress,
and especially to every poor man to vote
against the adoption of the amendments pro-
posed, and indeed all others, until Constitu-
tVOuAi SoufCHltod ID Cd1lCu sItlu ~ho
standingly revise the organic law. This can
be done in 1883. let the present township sys-
tern have a fair trial. It is working economi-
sally now, more SO than the old system, and as
it gives the power to the people to regulate
their own affairs, It's Nope in harmony with
the spirit OF our institutions than that for
which it is a substitute. y ~ 4
Since writing the above we observe that the
Spectator comes to the aid OF the Vindicator in
support Of the proposed amendments to the
Constitution. We are satisfied that neither of
our contemporaries has seriously thought about
the question:. We have shown above, from Of
fetal data, that the present system is cheaper
than the old, and it is upon that ground the
people are called to vote for the amendments.
Unless it is the purpose to abolish the public
school system, there is no reason for the pro-
posed amendments, for there is no question
that the present method of administering the
affairs OF the counties is less expensive than UNI
der the old constitution. 1t is for the people
to determine whether they intend that that fea-
ture of the constitution is to be Invaded and de-
sttoye,l. 1t will be, the next object of attack,
if the present propositions arctcarricd. Defeat
them, and the work OF tearing to pieces and de-
stroying will stop.

DEATH OF JOSEPH Z. sIERR1KE

DEATH OF JOSEPH. II. MERRIKEN.-Mr. J..
Z. Meriiken, died at his residence near Staun-
ton, OH the 9th inss., of consumption, i'll the
3oth year of his age. fIe married the eldest
daughter of the late William Smith, and leaves
widow and four little c'lildren-two of them
painfully afflicted-to buffet the adversities of
life. Mr.. Mcrrrken was instinetiyely gentle
man and possessed many comm .n,lable traits
OF character. For several years ,st his disease
had made such rapid inroads upon his constitute
ton as to render him unable to engage actively
in business. His active spirit chafed under
physical restraints, and caused feeling of
dependency which doubtless fastened his
death. He was the son Of the late Rev. JOS R.
Merriken and nephew of the late Hon. Lewis
Mclean, of Delaware, and cousin OF Hon. r.
Mclean, Of Msrylan:l, and the late Capt. Geo.
Mclean, OF the q: s. Army, as brave and true
man and as coiirtIy soldier as ever drew
saber.

The Republicans of this Congressional Dis
trict present a can iidate in the person OF Hon.
J. +. Lewis, upon whom the solid elements Of
both parties can with prepriety concentrate.
He is known to the entire people, either per-
sonally Or by reputation, to be gentleman i'll
the fulles. sense of~sne term. Ills integrity is
above questIl,-his whole character, indeed,
above reproach. During the six years OF his
service in the senate of the United States he
has been mindful of the interests OF all, ire
spectiVe Ut party Identification, and devoted
his time and influence to the promotion of
every measure that has tendency to benefit
his State 4 Virginan by birth and educat-
ion, his sy,npathies. his feelings and his in-
terests, are identified with the Commonwealth
and the people, and there could be no wiser
course adopted by the voters of the seventh
district than to continue his services in the
national Congress by eaeeting him OH the Bird
of November. We have no personal warfare
to wage upen either Judge Harris or Colonel
O'Ferrall, who are his competitors. We have
leug since learned that no maa can be- elevated
IN the estimation of the people by attempting
to pull down an .ther person. We have con-
adence Ill the honest impulses and judgment
% the people, and We believe that, left free to
their own minds, they will render proper
verdict. We further believe it to be their duty
to judge fairly and impartially between the
competing candidates and to east their suf-
frages as freemen. fully appreeiating and I'M
