The Fair given by the ladies last week at
st. Mary's Academy, in orr town, for the ben
eft of the Catholic Church, would have proved
complete success had it not been for the in
element weather on the second night. On the
first night, however, there was a very large
crowd, and the receipts were quite satistac-
tory.
We understand that. owing to this disap-
pointment, a second Fair will soon be gotten
up for the same purpose as the first. Let us
hope that this time the weather will be more
favorable, the recreation more complete, and
the receipts even more satisfactory.

THE New VIRGINIA SENAToR.-The Knox.
vile tTennessee) Press gives a sketch of Col.
Robert Z. Withers. recently elected to the
e. S. Senate from Virginia. He has only
figured III politics since the war. During the
civil strife he commanded the Eighteenth Fir-
ginia regiment, and it is recorded, as an evi-
dence of his gallantry on the field, that lie
was wounded nineteen times. In January.
1866, he assumed the chief editorial charge of
the Lynehburg News, then just established,
and continued his journalistic duties for about
two years. Col Withers opposed the oval
ker movement in 1869, and gave no encour-
agement to the Liberal movement of 1872.
He is a ready speaker, and is popular through
out the State by his addresses on the stump
and his military services. In the recent State
election he was elected Lieutenant Governor
by over $4,000 majority. He is a representa-
tive Virginiau Of the old school, and will
doubtless represent this State with signal
ability.

The w hole Case.
IN. 0. Picavune, Feb. 81

Mr. Stewart, of Nevada, who followed
Messrs. Morton, Conkling, and Frelinghuysen,
IN the debate i'll the Senate on the Louisiana
case, wisely confined himself to the main point
| in the question. which is whether that can be
called republican government of State
the officers of which were returned as elected
without votes or ballots, but upon mere arbi-
trury calculations and affidavits of persons
who didn't vote, and had no knowledge of who
did vote, or who was refused a vote.
This is tile whole question presented to Con-
gress, which they cannot evade. The facts
are clearly laid before them. 1t never was
pretended that the Kellogg Government was
elected bT the ballots cast and counted. On
the contrary, the suit III cl1ancery upon which
DureH issued his extraordinary midnight
order, averred that the votes east were against
the petitioner. but that such majority was due
10 the exclusion OF a certain number of votes
which were not received or counted. If this
ayernent should be sustained by evidence it
would be good ground for a contestation
but it could not have the effect which has
been arbitrarily and violently given to it, of
placing the minority party in office.
That would be against all precedent, law
and reason. The case of the present pre- tended
Government Of Louisiana rests upon this frail
foundation. Hence the pertinency of Mr.
Stewards proposition, that republican gov
ernment cannot exist upon such showing.
and that where there is such government
maintained by the Federal power, it is the
duty of Congress to come to the relief of the
people from such wrong and outrage, and to
take proper steps to secure republican gov
ernment for the people. There can be no
such government which has not the sanction
of a majority of the suffragans, to be ascer-
tanned through regular elections and election
returns.
