Support the Cause.

The Conservative Executive Committee
OF the city is in need Of funds to meet the
expenses OF meetings, &C., under rs direc-
ton. Ward meetings are to be held. and
they are attended with expenditures which
the committee must have the money ior. 4
grand rally upon the eve OF battle is also to
be held. On this stirring occasion there
will be present some able orators. Messrs.
DoIsHEIAER, of New York, and VOORHEES,,
OF Indiana, arc expected, and will more
than probably speck on the occasion. 1t is
desired that funds sufficient to make liberal
preparations for the meeting and for the
final " enthusing" rally will be at once put
in the hands of the committee.
We down here in the South have more

tial election than any other communities i'll
the Union, and we may we'll do all in our
power to promote the success OF the Demo-
cratic party The triumph of that party at
once shuts down the gate upon the oppres-
siye measures OF the Radical party, and
upon the flood OF sectional iealousies and
hatreds that has SO long yexed the nation
1
and impaired the national peace and pros
perity. It will build the completes partition
between the past and the future, and set
| free the nation from Radical constitu-
tional outrages and Radical policy
from Radical maiignities and Radical cor
ruptions. To aid in accomplishing so much
for the good of the nation and for the good
Of the South, without whose welfare there
can be no complete peace and thrift in the
nation, every man ought to give freely all
he can. we have the CLEANS Of hope i'll the
news from Indiana. This should cheer us
and induce us all to work and to contribute
to the great cause with increased zeal and
liberality. The collectors will call to-day.
We have no public officers to assess for
money to carry on political canvass.
Freemcn only are asked to contribute, and
to keep themselves free they should be far
more ready to pay the cost than the official
slaves who pay for. place and who know not
| liberty; because they are party slaves.

Death of Judge Bouldirl.

Judge WooD BoULDIN, member of the
Virginia Court Of Appeals, died at his resi-
dence, in Charlotte county, at II o'clock on
Tuesday night, in the sixty-fourth year OF
his age, after life OF distinction, honor,
and public usefulness. In making brief
biographical notice OF Judge BoULDIN, we
state that he was born in Charlotte county
in 1917, and was the son Of Judge
THOMAS II. ,,BoULDIN, man OF dis
tinction at the bar and Oh the
bench, who was. elected to Congress as
successor to JOHN RANDOLPH Of Roanoke,
served from 1920 to '33, and died in the hall
Of the House of Representative February II,
1884, soon after entering upon his third
term. He Lad been Intercepted by, a col
league relative to calling the attention OF the
House to the death OF JoHN RANDOLPH, his
predecessor. Judge BoULpIN arose to reply,
when he was seized with paralysis, sank into
his chair, and died. ID, 90: s,,;.l ,y,s<.i /.
Judge WOOD BOULDER entered upon the
legal profession at an early age, and after
some years removed to Richmond,
and became associated with the Late
ROBERT C. SrANAnDI in law business. BE
afterwards became the purchaser Of john
RANDoLpH's home, on the Staunton river,
in Charlotte county, to winch he removed.

with Judge HUNTER H. MARSHALL and his

his office at time Of elections. They were
severely censured as attempting TO bias the
public Jury when they themselves were on
trial.
So sensitive was the public mind with re-
gard to this indelicacy of public men that
when HENRY CLAT made an after-dinner
speech In Southwest Virginia defending his
course in che election Of ADAMS by the
House OF Represe ntatives, and in accepting
the Office OF Secretary of State under him,
the papers rang with censures Of him.
Yet, il any Cabinet officer ever was ex-
cusable for taking up his own de-
fence before tho people CLAY was the
man. He was not arraigned for his politi-
cal principles or for his ideas OF policy, but
his honor was assailed. He was charged
with bribery. But SO strict and so sensitive
was the public nind--so strong was the con-
viction.that Federal officer must submit his
actions to the public judgment and must
leave his trial aud fate to the public-that
Mr.. CLAY was censured without measure
for undertaking his own defence against the
personal charge OF bribery and corruption.
Mr.. RITCHIB led the southern press in this
vigorous assault upon the Kentucky states
man. s'.2
There was time when the public senSi-
tivcness on this subject SO restrained the
orators that none OF them ventured to go
over to teach their nelghbors what to do.
But times gradually changed, and one by
one the strollfng orators invaded the States,
until now their name is legion. So all deli
cacy about the public officers voting at cleo
tions is gone forever, and they are forced to
leave their offices in Washington. and go to
the extremities OF the Union to cast their
votes and assist in biassing the public judy
ment in their own favor.
The Herald is right. "The overshadow-
ing influence of national politics in State
elections will never be got rid Of" When
the States regarded themselves as the crea-
tors OF the Federal Government, with rights
the Federal Government could not impair,
the local or State communities would not
permit the State politics to be wholly over
ridden by those OF the Federal Government.
But the Federal Government became too
rich. Its patronage was too great, its dis
bursements for national objects were too
immense, for successful resistance to the
tendency of the public disposition to serve
that Government. And now we have that
example against which the Herald seems to
protest: the subordination OF State politics
to Federal politics. The States are as no.
thing-the Federal Government everything.
The Herald recommends as partial
remedy the holding OF all State elections on
the same day. That would be better. The
evil would not be quite so great. A single
State could not be made the battle-ground
for the nation, to the serious damage Of that
State and the undue agitation OF the whole
nation. But the old sentiment, the old
local jealousy Of outside influence and
Capitalization, arc dead and gone forever.

Federal and State Politics,

The New York Herald has notable COM
ment upon the party custom OF the day Of
sending from State to State troops Of orators
to harangue the people during presidential
and State canvasses. The Herald thinks
that this custom is subordinating State to
Federal politics in opposition to the spirit
and genius OF our system Of Government.
The States ere invaded by immigrant ora
tors, and those States are made to glow
like furnace ut white heat -; and ga great
ssbattle is fought over their local elections,
"making them mere pawns in the game
OF national politics." Very true. And the
fact shows the great change that has taken
place in the public mind. The central
Government has grown II power, and has
well nigh absorbed all that belonged to the
States under the Constitution. People all
look to Washington for measures that vitality
affect their interests for good OF evil. The
States and their laws are as nothing in their
power and influence over industry, enter
prise, and business generally. Contrac-
tors, spectators, iobbers-all-are look
ing to the source OF greatest expen-
diture and OF greatest mea MS for the
enriching OF the scheming and corrupt COM
munity that is always seeking to live by
wit and rascality in plundering the public
revenue. Even the States are now mendi-
cant petitioners for Government favor, and
many OF them have fattened upon the trea-
sure that should be equally shared by all or
not dealt out to any. For sixty years the
North has subordinated local and State
authority to Federal authority. The
people OF the North have but poorly
considered their States. They were
off for Washington with inventions and
schemes. and with ambition to serve the
Federal Government at so early period OF
life that they might be comparcd.to young
partridges leaving their mothers nests with
a BIT OF the shell on their backs. We're
garded this fact before the war as one Of the
strongest proofs of the rapid advance Of the
country to centralization--the consolida-
ton OF all political power in the Federal
Government. We were right.
The HerGd says that nobody has protest
ed against this. The Herald is mistaken.
In early times there was an irrepressible
prejudice against the " trayelling orators
as they We're called; also, g imported ora.
tors People were disposed to resent tile
appearance OF these g busy -bodies outside
OF sheir own bailiYieks, and it was con.
sidered the height of presumption sor
them TO undertake to teach men to WHOM,
they were strangers what public duty mud
What wisdom esialired them to do. W.

The Prospect.

Certainly the Democrats have done well.
They have every reason to be satisfied. The
bloody-shlrt banner will most probably be
furled. Indiana cast 1S5 electoral votes on
Tuesday-that is to say, she elected TILDEN;
for as Indiana went Tuesday so will so the
Union in November.
