mcnt.

In an article upon the declaration made by
the last State Conservative Convention that
the party would make no captious opposition
to the administration, the Richmond Wing
says: when the administration goes wrong
the Conservatives of Virginia have the courage
to condemn it 10 merited terms OF censure;
when it goes right the Conservatives OF Vlr-
GINA have the business and the good sense to
express openly aud boldly their appreciation Of
the act. 1t is in this way that we are true to
ourselves. 1t is in this way that VIC can com
mand the cooperation of true men all over the
country in our efforts for reformation OF the
abuses of the government. 1t is 10 this way
that we disarm the rancor of RadlcallSm, and
silence its SANDERS. 1t is in this way that We
may hope to have Conservative President
with the advent Of the next administration.

\ WATERBURY, REMfNISCENCE.-Yea ears
ago Waterbury Street was famous for its
sale of :" black strap" Il compound of New
England rum and West India molasses.
Several of the inhabitants of that gOodly
town were equally celebrated for their
constant and ever-ready endeavors to put
down the article, and as much of it as pos
sible, on every occasion when they came in
contact with that spirit. The older inhabi-
tants will well remember two quaint indi-
viduals named Asa Locke and Bickford,
companions; and neither allowed the other
! to 90 dry when they met if he had the
means or opportunity to procure the much
loved black-strap. 1t happened one cold

Wood, the Methodist preacher, living Just

more intelligibly than the thickened stat,
of his tongue would allow his words to dc

Thereupon, Bickford managed to hoist tn
