Messrs. Editors The excitement and
feeling engendered by the late elections
have nearly passed away and we can
now calmly moralize as to causes and
results. The first great cause of ALL
We find in the tlunder committed bv a
portion Of the Democracy of Ohio and
Pennsylvania on the financial question,
which lost US those two great States
and resulted in heavy Republican gains
elsewhere. This .fasco of the Demo
Gratis of Ohio in thus incorporating this
rotten plank Of the Radical party into
their platform of principles, against
which they had formerly rallied in I'm.
broken phalanx, and which had been
abandoned BY the Republicans as un-
tenable, to certain extent resembles
in its results the nomination of greeley
by the Democrats in 1872. That de-
parture resulted in overwhelming de-
feat of the party at the time, but such
was its innate vitality and strength, that
when it went before the country with
its genuine, time honored Jeffersonian
principles, ''unmixed with baser mat
ter" emblazoned on its banners, il swept
the country with an irresistible "tidal
wave" from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
from the Lakes to the Gulf, and secur-
ed large majority in the House of
Representatives in the Congress of the
United States. And there is good
ground for belief that, Invested of Gree
leyism, Infationism and every other
ism opposed to the best interest of the
country, and incased in principles un-
assailable, the Democracy will again
sweep the country and triumphantly

LECTURES BEFORE THE YOUNG MEMS
CHRISTIAN AssoclATIoN.-On Thursday even
ipe DR.. Bagby lecturcd on "The Virginia
Negro-Past and Present" 1t was rich
treat. and highly enjoyed by a large and cul-
tivated audience. Ii DR.. Blgby could DC.
liver his lecture in Boston, New York, and
Philadelphia, it would, no doubt, do good,
and serve to enlighten the people OF the
North concerning the negroes in slavery
days, his traits, etc. The lecture from be-
ginning 10 end was rich with amusing Illus
trations.
Next Wednesday and Thursday, Febru-
ary Sd and 4th, DR.. A. A. Willis will ap-
pear before the Association; and we Can
promise oil who may hear him very plea
SAINT evening. DR.. Willis has already de.
ivered two lectures this season, and his
coming TO Richmond again speaks volumes
for him as lecturer.
The accomplished pastor of the Tabb-
Street Presbyterian church, Petersburg Rev.
Dr.. T. L. Witherspoon,) will lecture here
about the 18th or 18th Of February, and will
be followed by Governor Vance, of North
Carolina-lhe Wendell Phillips Of the South.

The lecture-course Of the Young Mems

Interesting and of the highest order, and Our
peoDle will no doubt continue their liberal
support OF the work of such good cause.

A PEgItoUs RIDE AND ITS CONSEQUENCES

A PERkoUS RIDE AND ITS CoNsEoUESCEs.-
A cCorcd boy named jeff. Page was hauled
out OF James river under the Danvllle Rail-
road bridge Thursday night by parties who
were attracted thither by bis screams. In
response to inquiries be stated that he got
untiera car at Je,ersyille and seated himself
upon the truck for the purpose of obtaining
free ride to his home, in this city, and bad
gotten along quite we'll until he reached
Manchester. AS the train started over the
bridge at Richmond he lost bis balance and
fell into the river. The most remarkable
fact connected with this piece Of foolhardi.
ness is that although he must have fallen a
distance of more than twenty feet, with the
chances of being dashed to pieces against the
rocks, yet, iu the opinion OF those who saw
him, none of the important bones Of his body
were broken, but he was considerably
bruised. He was conveyed to his home in
this city, on Broad between Jefferson and
Monroe streets.
