seeker; wondered how 1t was that Smith
had so 1ately and 80 deeply fallen in lore
with the Catholics and the mechanics, and
ridiculed his nom de plume sm Peopla.s
Candidate. MFR. Cabell declared TINT
he had that night heard but one
honest speech, and that was Mr.. Lewis's.
and, Mr. Lewis said be supported Smith
because Smith is q Republican. Mr..
Cabell saw8in this so-called peoples move
ment the Radical serpent in disguise, and
he warned his hearers to beware of it. AS
a defeated candidate himself he appealed
to them to- be true to their party.
He reminded Mr. KeileF's friends OF
Mr. Keiiey's recent patriotic speech, in
which he said that here in Richmond, where
the Protestants outnumbered the Catholics
seven to one, q Catholic had for six wears
been elected Mayor which ought not now
to beSforgotten. Had Colonel Darlington
been unsuccessful at the primary election.
not doubt his friends would have acaui-
-esccd, and now Mr.. Cabell believed that
Mayor Keiley's friends would follow Mayor
keiley's advice, and do likewise ffCheers.1 I
Mr.. Cabell criticised the propriety OF Mr..
Hoxsey's appearance, and thought we could
fill our offices without help from Jerseymen.
This brought Mr.. Hoxsey sa ,..-1 =
BACK TO THE STAND. ~s.s q
He waited for Mr. Cabell to get through.
Then he uprose and claimed that a Jersey
man has as much right to consideration In
Richmond as 1rishmen, and Dir. Cabell had
spoken affectionately OF the latter and OF
Mayor Kelley; and Mayor Kelley himself was
a Jerseyman, and is not ashamed or afraid
to own it. Mr.. Hoxsey then went on to say
what the Conservatives had done to pile up
Yirginia's debt, &c.
The meeting being open to all comers,
;,.1t51.s's; MR.. WILLIAM WOODY
came to the front and,proceeded to denounce
Mr.. Smith in plain language. Four years
ago Mr.. Woody was one of the Republican
nominees for the House OF Delegates. He
had helped Smith to Congress, and had the
right to expect the favor te be reciprocated,
he thought; but Smith went to Augusta
and gave the ticket no help. Woody
asserted that he was Republican,
and as such was ashamed OF Smith.
He repeatedly declared that Smith had no
claims either on the white or black Repub-
licans. He called attention Of the blacks to
the fact that Smith, in Congress, voted
against the civil-rights bill.
Mr.. Woody surprised most Of those pres
ent by his t1uency Of speech and the hard
ness Of the blows he dealt "the Peoples
candidate"

THAT SpEEcH.-Our foreign citizens have
been Justly exercised over report that
Colonel w. C. Carrington, Conservative
candidate for Mayor, in u speech on navy
Hill on Thursday night last said that p" IL
was high time that native Virginia gentlemen,
white and colored, ruled the State" we
have taken great pains to arrive at the trulh
of the matter, and have it from the most re,
liable sources that Colonel Carrlngton saia
nothing Of the kind. The remarks rSs,oSsd weFe
pastor OF the Navy Hill Free Baptist church,
prominent Republican, who repeated
them twice during the evening. The rumor
AGAINST our candidate for Mayor is one cal
cnlated to iniure him greatly among our
foreign citizens, and we trust this statement n
win satisfy them Of the injustice done MN. nm.
At any rate, he can't be beaten; SO 1t makes
little difference one way or the other.

miners were at work in chamber in the
perpendicular shaft well nigh one hundred
and seyenty-ive feet from the bottom; one
of them was thrown out and killed by TALL
ing to the bottom, while the others actually
climbed up the rope of the shaft and thus
saved their lives.
Thomas Corneau, Charles Holder, and
Robert Hall were married men, and leave
families. John Marshall and Thomas Golden
