MANCHESTER COTTON MILLS-AE ETlNG OF
STOCKHOLDERs-TIrE AGRICULTURAL. SOC1E-
TY-COMPETITIvE DRILL OF CoLORED COM
PASIES-THE ApP0MATTOX APPROPRIATION.
Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatchl
- AUGUST 3, 1876.
At a gen eral meeting OF the stockholders
of the Manchester Cotton Mills, held to-day,
J. Wesley Friend, president OF the CON-
many. and General William Malone and
Alexander Donnan were appointed COM
mittee to ascertain the value, condition, and
availability Of the property, and make re-
port OF the same to an adjourned meeting OF
the stockholders to be held two weeks hence.
When this report is made the stockholders
will take some definite action as to the future
Of the mills.
The company last year expended about
$4,000 in new machinery and other i'm
provcmcnts, and it is believed the pro-
pertv is worth at the least s150,000. The
indebtedness Of the company is only about
a32, 900.
! a meeting OF the Executive Committee
OF the Agricultural Society will be held at
an early day to decide upon the question OF
holding Fair next fall. The Council hay
ING refused any assistance, it is believed the
decision will be against holding any. In
c0nScQ Uencc OF Inc HilC improvements pun
upon the grounds, and the liberal amount
expended in premiums, the Society found
itself at the close Of the last Fair about
81, 200 in debt. 1t is thought by some to be
the wiser course to hold no Fair at all this
fall than to run the risk OF failure.
The Petersburg Guards, Captain Hill (col-
orcd), had their final dress-dril this after
noon preparatory to the competitive drill at
Fortress Monroe on the 7th instant. There
is no denying the fact that this company is
under admirable discipline, and that the
members have attained proficiency in the
drill that will make them formidable COM
pctitors for the prize at Fortress Monroe.
Judge Jones returned from Washington
to-day, where he has been in the interest OF
the ApDomattox River appropriations. He
brings the gratifying intelligence that in
the river and harbor bill, which passed the
Senate yesterday, there was an appropria-
ton of 900 for our river; and that the
House will not interfere with this amount
when the bill comes before that body.
The auditors Office OF the Atlantic, Mis-
sssippi and Ohio railroad, which has been
located in this city for several years, will be
removed to Lynchburg this week.

Gcatons are very many we confidently suggest the
name OF Mr. l.. s SQUIRE, of this city, lis one In
every way fitted 10 I'LL the very responsible and i'm
portant position. Mr.. Squire for many years con.
Quoted with great efficiency and acceptabi!ity one OF
the largest classical and English schools for boys III
this city.
aThe foundation TO the liberal, indeed complete,
education received by Mr.. Squire preparatory TO ms
engaging in teaching in this city was az one on tile
first institutions OF public schools In the Stale OF
New York. and In very great degree IS hls success
In this city as teacher OF our yonth 10 De

Mr. James A. Cowardin, the venerable
editor Of the Dispatch, Is still rusticating
for health and angling for those darling
speckled beauties he loves so well in the
mountain streams, while Captain Drinkard
runs the paper. Mr.. Cowardin is splendid
writer OF Ietters-the best we know; and
his style is n study for all correspondents.
In that line he far excels Colonel Forney, and
is superior even, we think, to Mr.. Fulton,
Of the Baltimore Americdn.- Wing.
Such compliment, and from such q
source, Is one that our venerable chief
ought to be proud OF; and in his name and
in his absence from his post we return
thanks for it. The present writer would
endorse the lVhig's opinion il he were
writing for any other paper than the Dis
patch.

would say Just here, however, that Mr.. Bax-
ter, though he has not complained OF it, has
been badly treated in some instances by the
travel being diverted from his place when
would stop there to dinner en- route for Mill
boro' depot. It appears that neither the
"travel contract" nor the schedule has been
closely adhered to. Once upon time many
persons stopped at his place at night; put
now that is not the case, for springs-goers
have deserted the day train in great mea-
sure and take the express train, Wblch
reaches NIiIboro' after breakfast, and pas
sengers land in consequence at the Alum TO

THE Two-THIRns RULE.-Thc Atlanta
correspondent of the New York Herald says
Of the Georgia State Convention Che wrote
before it metz:
.It is ccrhSn that the Convention will
adopt the mSxStg rule as opposed to the
two-thirds ruSsS4his is important when it
is remembered That Colquitt's frien6s. could
nominate him just as easily by the two
thirds rule, and may be accepted as Georgia 5
positive and formal Reputation OF the old
Democratic rule. She will so vote in the
next National Convention"
And so every State ought to vote. \
more absurd, unwise, and unjust rule was
never in force.

HESDRICKs.-For some time we have been
trying to induce the Cincinnati Commercial
to furnish us, from its files, wherein HEN
DRIcKs's speeches in Ohio last fall are pre-
served, evidence that Dir. HENDRICKS is a
soft-money man, or that he proiessed to be
whilst stamping Ohio for WILLIAM ALLEN.
We have now the evidence on 'tother side.
The Commercial confesses, as follows:
" Hendricks processes at Saratoga that he
never was sott-money man in the sense
that phrase ia understood in the West, and
it is fair to say that one may study his
speeches in the Ohio canvass Of 1875 with
out being able to determine exactly what he
Was or where he stood on the financial
question"
SO you've looked oyer those speeches in
rain.

1t is fact that prominent member OF
the House OF Representatives has originated
the proposition to bcstow upon President
Grant a life pension OF $4,000. The reasons
adduced for this singular project arc that
the President is poor, and that he will need
the money to live on after he goes out Of
office. Poor Mrs. Custer will no doubt be
willing to divide her pension $3.50 per
monthly with Grant.
