Nireinin Politics.

A large number OF Virginia Democrats
now here have had several informal con-
situations on the subject OF the presidency
in connection with the meeting OF the Vir-
ginia Democratic Convention on the 3lst
instant, Among them are General Bradley
L. johnson. General Bagwcll, Mr.. Handy
of the Richmond Enquirer, State Senator
Smith, and others. They have conversed
freely with senators and representatives in
order to ascertain the views OF leading
Democrats throughout the country. 1t is
| stated that there is quite strong feellngl
favor Of General Hancock throughout the
rural districts OF Virginia, and the desire Is
to know how Hancock is regarded else
where. Several Of the Virginia gentlemen
had an interview with Justice Davis to-
night, and were very much pleased with
him. The disposition appears to be, so far
as Virginia is concerned, to take the man
that will be most acceptable to the Democ-
racy of the country Washington telegram
in baltimore Sun. 49,, -. r.. ~ Z
VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS IN CONSULTATION.
Bradley T. johnson, N. P. Handy OF the
Richmond Enquirer, and number OF other
prominent Democrats from Virginia are in
the city. They explain that their meeting
at this juncture is entirely casual and acct
them have had interviews with Justice
Davis, Senators Thurman and Bayard, and
others who have been suggested as candi-
dates for the Democratic presidential noml-
nation. The current rumor last night was
that this "accidental delegation is engaged
in instructing the Virginia Democrats in
Congress how to act in the coming cam
paign and at the st. Louis Convention. The
informality OF this occurrence prevents the
possibility of reaching any definite conclu-
sion regarding the Democratic choice OF
Virginia; but it seems that Hancock may be
the first choice, Hendricks second, and Thur
man last. A Maryland delegation of Demo-
Gratis happening to meet their friends from
Virginia above mentioned declared prefer
ence for Hendricks for President and Tilden
for Vice-President, and one OF them declared
positively that Tildcn would gladly accept
the second place on the ticket Washington
Republican.
I'VE don't think that that tea-party can
safely pledge Nirginia's vote to anybody.]

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,

Mr.. Seelye, OF Massachusetts, from the
Committee on Indian Affairs, reported bill
authorizing the Secretary of the Interior to
ppay the expenses of delegates from the East
ern band OF Cherokee Indians. Passed.
He also reported bill authorizing the
Eastern band OF the North Carolina Chero-
kee Indians to institute suits and to pro-
vide for the purchase Of lands. Referred,
Mr.. Hartridge, Of Georgia, introduced a
bill to provide for settlement with certain
railway companies in the southern States.
Referred.
The resolution seating Lemoine Demo
craft, from Illinois, was adopted.
The House went into Committee OF the
Whole on the post-office appropriations.
Hon. Henry r. Harris, OF Georgia, made
an able and exhaustive speech upon our
industries as they relate to finance. He
showed that the revival Of our industries
is the only road to resumption; that no ma
ton has ever maintained metallic currency
with continued balance Of trade against
it; and that it is manifestly the interest OF
this country to pay off its foreign debt by
the export OF commodities rather than gold,
and that true wisdom dictates that policy
which will best secure this result. He cited
the examples OF England, France, an
Russia, and further elaborated his premises
by able augmentation to their legitimate
conclusion. a g..

The farmers of Los Angeles valley
are now assured of a prosperous sea-
son-the most prosperous that has WIS.,
tied them in the past twenty years.
The total rainfall for the season ap-
proximates twenty seven inches
more than sufficient to warrant ex-
cellent crops on all the valley land,
including much of the higher plain
known as mesa land. A very large
area of soil has been seeded, and the
young crop is coming on finely. AL
together the outlook for this part of
the State is most promising. The
locking up of million and a half of
dollars by the failure of bank in
which, through the misrepresenta-
tions of parties whose motives were
more than questionable, the people
were induced to deposit their funds,
produced for time financial strin-
gency which perceptibly depressed
real estate transactions and was felt
in nearly or quite all branches of bus
iness. But we are rapidly returning
to our former condition of prosperity,
and in few weeks money will be as
plenty and times as lively as in the
past.

About three weeks ago some China
men committed robbery in San
Diego, taking from Captain Knox and
others, goods to the amount of $1,000.
They effected thoir escape on the
yacht Cuyamuco and came to
this city. Mr.. Rowland, then Sher-
if received a telegram to arrest
the parties but they had debarked
from the yacht before the warrants
arrived. The matter was then placed
in the hands of Detective Emil Har-
ris, and since that time he has been
working it up with his best efforts.
For time they baffied him, as they
received assista nee and conceal
ment from confederates in this
city and were finally spirited away to
San Gabriel, and there given hiding
place. Yesterday Detective Harris
succeeded in finding out their where
abouts and arrested two of the party.
There is another still at large, but he
will doubtless be brought in before
long.
County Superintendent Saxon in
forms us that he has received notice
of the State moneys due Los Angeles
county on school tax. The apportion-
ment will probably be made next
week.

for moment think of carrying the
head of an Administration under
which the outrages on the people were
perpetrated. 70 make these investi-
cations will be to loosen the hold of
GRANT and those who have acted with
him, on the party and open the way
for new leaders who will come before
the people on a platform denuncia-
tory of fraud and corruption and re-
affirming the purity of Republican
principles. This we say may be the
purpose of the Union League, and the
plan has the appearance of feasibility
provided the people may be induced
to forget that it was on these sams
purity principles were elected the
officials by whom these frauds and
rascalities have been perpetrated. 1t

Last night at o'clock the Grand
Central wine rooms were thrown open
to the public. The rooms were beau
tifully fitted up, every panel being a
mirror, splendid counter, gorgeous
sideboards and magnificent chande-
liers; in fact, nothing that taste or art
could contribute was lacking. But
the most attractive feature of all was
the lunch, which was prepared by th e
chief of the culinary department of
the Grand Central hotel, Mr.. Joseph
Perry. 1t was so fine a picture as it
lay spread before the crowd that it
was good while before any one was
found willing to disturb it; but when
a few slices of turkey, ham, tongue,
and lots of other delicacies, had been
distributed, every one went to work
to do justice to one OF the finest lunch
es ever spread in a saloon. Messrs.
Stackpole & Goss, the proprieters, of
ficiated behind the bar and evidently
know how the thing ought to be done.
The Grand Central wine rooms are
now permanent institution.

A Retrenchment Step.

1t is proverb that doctors never
take their own medicine, and it is an
axiom almost as firmly fixed, that re-
trenchment and reform movements
seldom or never affect the salaries or
perquisites of those who set the ball
in motion. The Legislature now in
session is retrenchment and reform
body in theory if not in practice.
Nearly every new member of either
branch secured his election on plat
form avowing retrenchment and re-
form, and on a million promises that
when he reached the Legislature, eX-
penses should be cut down and taxes
reduced. How well these gentlemen
have kept their pledges let the record
bear witness. Both Houses organized
with the usual complement of clerks
and assistants at the usual per diem.
But the spirit of retrenchment and re-
form was not dead; it only slept. Af-
ter a short nap it awoke, and then
commenced war on the attaches.
Motions to discharge chaplains, clerks,
pages and printers came one after
another like onions on a string, and
the time spent in debating these mo-
tions cost the people more money than
the combined per diem of all the at
taches of both branches of the Legis-
lature would have amounted to. Dur
ing the foY of this torrent of re-
trenchm ent eloquence not word was
spoken, not a motion offered looking
to the reduction Of the per diem of
Senators and Assemblymen. Not a
single member expressed willing
ness to accept for himself solitary
cent less than the amount fixed by
law. They have, however, made a
dash at the salaries of those who shall
succeed our present State officers.
The Senate has passed bill reducing
| the salaries of the executive officers
and their deputies and clerks in the

THE Erpress affects to want to bet

THE Express affects to want to bet
one hundred dollars that its circulation
is double that of the HERALD. If we
thought the Express had one hundred
dollars of its own money We would bet
the HERALD's books shows one-third
more actual paying subscribers than
the total paying and deadhead list OF
Senator JONES' paper. But we do not
think it has the money and shall con-
tinue to entertain this opinion until
it settles that little claim held against
it by the assignees of TRMPLE & Work
MAN. 1t is far more honorable to pay
your debts than to throw it away on
bets where you have a dead thing to
