Virg1nia Henesey ln the Old Days.
The Washington correspondent OF the
Boston Journal writes:
Virgins furnished . precedent, in 1861,
which Grover, Of Oregon, might have borne
in mind. There were then feur electoral
tickets before the people of Virginia, head
ed by Breckinridge. Bell, Douglas and Lin
coin The votes cast for the two first named
tickets were 20 nearly equal that, although
tho Bell electors were generally chosen. BY
the decision of Hon. j. Randolph Tucker,
then Attorney General, votes for Waller
Staples, one Of tho electors, that were mis-
spelled Walter Staples, and for Walter
Preston, another Of the electors, which
wore misspelled waller Preston, were
thrown out, thereby choosing two of the
Breckinridge electors. Although Governor
Letcher issued the certificates of election to
these two BrechinridEe electors, the latter
resigned and declined on point Of honor
to act in that capacity, a. it would be falsi-
fying the will of the people - intended to
bs expressed ut the ballot box. The re-
maining electors then filed the vacancies
by appointing Messrs. Staples and Preston,
and cast the full vote of the State a. above
stated. General Eppa Hunton, now Dem
ocratic Representative in Congress, was one
of the Breckinridge electors who was COM
missioned on General fuckers technicality
and declined. The punctilious example Of
General Hunton on that occasion might
have been followed in Oregon.

The fine, standard play of "Ingomar' was
acted at the Varieties Theatre last night,
Miss Mary Andsraon playing Parthenia,
and excellently well. The aplain Grecian
dress shows her tall, slender figure to good
advantage, and tho young lady caught the
spirit and winsome manner that seemed
most natural to win the barbarian. There
are touches in this play sweet ~ old songs;
its theme is the old and always new story
of the power of love. Let the words be
spoken an the play oan not 60 badly. Mr..
Wheelock gave sensible representation OF
Ingomar. That the wild barbarian should
be so conquered and quickly tanned is i'm
probable, but it il in the play and had to
be, for the man must follow as the maiden
leads. Mr.. Wheelock played the authors
Ingomar, and eatisfed old playgoers who
had seen the piece many times before. Tc-
night "Fazio" will be acted.
