The whole State will be grieved to learn that
ex Gov. Letcher has been paralyzed, and will
10 all probability, never again be able to take
part in the affairs of the Commonwealth. The
Richmond Journal OF yesterday afternoon says ::
The many friends OF ex Gov. Letoher will be
panied to learn that he is lying 10 a very criti-
cal condition at his room in the Exchange Ho-
tel. Governor Letcher complained last night
of feeling uuwel. This morning while cross
ing the bridge, extending from the Ballard
House to the Exchange, he Was stricken with
paralysis. He was taken to his room. DR..
Smith, of Amherst, member ofthe House of
Delegates, and Dr.. Hunter McGuire at once
prescribed remedies. DR.. Smith is of the
Opinion that the attack was caused by an effu-
sion of blood on the brain. His condition is
critical, as all such cases are. A few days will
determine the extent or severity OF the attack.
His physicians will hold consultation this at
ternoon at o'clock. In conversation with
DR.. Smith to-day the writer was Informed that
Gov Lotcher would never be seen Oh the floor
of the House again.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1876-03-03

The meauest thing about the whole Belknap
affair was his attempt to save himself by sacrl-
fcing the reputation Of his two wives, the dead
one, and she who has been the leader of Wash
iogtoD society for the past few years-that So
ciety about which certain Western demo-
cratic Congressman remarked not long since,
when twitted publicly with his exclusion there
from that he would not consider au entire into its
charmed circle an honor, for that some of its
choicest spirits were now 10 the peDiteutiary
and that others were on their way there as fast
as the courts could send them. 1t is almost
impossible to realize that the man who was
bold enough to Sustain" Sheridan 10 his out
rage on the people Of Louisiana, could be so
craven hearted as to endeavor to shield him
self behind two women, and the lips OF one OF
those sealed by death.

kilograms from Washington to the St. Louis
Times, state that during all the stages OF the
Babcock trial Judge Pierrepont had drawn
from District Attorney Dyer the plans Of the
prosecution and the evidence 10 its possession
aud communicated it to MIR Stor,s of General
Babcock's counsel; that this was done not once,
but many times; aud that in order that there
might be 20 surprise. Colonel Dyer was called
to Washington and induced to copfie to the
Attorney General all the secrets of the prose-
cution, which 10 turn became the property of
General Babcock and MIR. Storrs.
