WASHINGTON, April "a, lS76.-A num-
Der of prominent citizens of Warrenton, Va,
among whom were Judge Keith, Gen. Payne,
T. M. Latham aud others, paid visit to Rep
resentative Hutton, last evening. There are,
of course, the usual conjectures, and there seems
no doubt, from the we-kuown ability of the
gentlemen OF the delegation that tho Common
wealth will lose nothing from the conference.
1t was certainly without any significance in re-
lalion to political affairs.
