THE GAME OF BRAG.

The Adjusters are at their old game Of
brag. The public has not yet forgotten
the last primaries. when those in this To-
cality were Dragging over the coming VIC
tory in the county. Printed tickets with
isVote for Malone. the Candidate OF the
People, were literally distributed, We
were assured that they wonlG carry every
thing except Staunton, and in the second
ward in this city it was probable they
would be successful The upshot showed
them beaten in four out OF six districts in
the county, and utterly whipped out in
both city wards. Now they are Oh the
same line Of braggsdocia. They, after a
tough canvass, got up a call for SEA-
WRIGHT, CRAIG, slWILLIKMs and VAN
LEAR, with 564 names appended to it.
Their strength in the Conservative party
may be put down at three foHrths of that
number, but for the, sake Of esleulat ioR
we give them all. They: will also, thanks
to the ''Valley Virginian,' which calls On
respectfully Republicans" get the whole
Republican vote This at the last Presi-
Dental election was 1,3l7. and we give
them the whole of it, though it will hard
Nv come out as it did at the last election
This gives them 1881 votes The last Con-
servative vote of Augusta was 4,l37, TAX
ing off 564 leaves 3,573 to beat 1881 with.
Ut will not be hard to do.

THE CARPE T-BAGGER THAT
MADE THE FUNDING BILL.

After the Funding Bill, of Which the
"Valley Virginian" was an advocate, was
passed, it had an article on Gov. WALKER,
who it said was the inspirer it, in which
it said, April 10, 1871:
ssHe saw and felt the imperative neces-
sity of maintaining the credit of the Stale,
as the only means by which capital and
emigration could be attracted to our do
main, railroads constructed, manufacturers
established, and the general development
of or vast resources of material wealth.
Had not the question been met in man
ner consistent with the honor. the past re-
nown and the future hopes of the Com
monwealth, Virginia would have become
less than blank III all coming national
considerations. Itadds that "Gov. Walk
or is a statesman far above the mere pre-.
tenders who trade upon other peoples
ideas, and hutter into prominent notice by
spasmOdic efforts and accidents.
So well balanced is his mind so acute his
sense # proprjety and practicability; so
vigorous the action OF his thinking facul-
ties; so broa, his views of public policy.
that he can calmly take in the wants OF
the State, and suggest the necessary
remedy for any evils at may exist"

HON. THOMAS S. BOCOCK. distin-
guished gentleman is a candidate for the
House of Delegates from Appomattax, but
he is doing splendid service for the State
at large in canvassing Campbell county
with Mr.. Button. In speech made last
Monday at Campbell Courthouse, he took
the strongest ground in favor IF the pay
ment of the debt. We take the following
extract from his speech in the "Virgin-
ian -
ssThe public debt was created in the con-
structi0n of the railroads and public works,
which have appreciated immensely the
value of our lands and increased the facil-
tiles of ntercommunicatiOn. Let me illus
trate: The city of Lynchburg issued her
bonds to build the Danville road, just as
Virginia issued her bonds to build other
roads. If you can repudiate the bonds is
sued by the State you can repndiate TIE
bonds Of the city Of LynchDurg, and pres
emily you will run the ploughshare of re-
pudiation through all contracts, public and
private. and demoralize the whole body Of
the people. These bonds do not belong to
the State. They belong to private indi-
viduals-many of them our poor widows,
who have their little all in this shape.
sME. Bocock here discussed at length
and convineipgly the binding action of the
Co-rt of Appeals, and paid a glowing
eulogy to the purity and dignity of that tri-
bunal. An attempt to repudlate would
sweep away the Court of Appeals and gain
nothing, for the United States couI is
would certainly enforce the payment Of the
bonds when sued upon by parties holding
them out of Virginia.
"Mr. Bocock INDUCED in some enter
tanning and amusing illusions to farm life
and showed that the tax on real estate is
not enormous beyond our easy ability to
pay it: He alluded to a speech recently
made by Lieut.. Gov. Marye, and made ex-
tracts from it; and also to letter from
Hon. Alexander Stuart.
Il believe, he said: that we should fully
try and test the Moffett punch"

FINE DISTINCTIONS. A..

The Adjusters are indignant if called
Regulators. Tn ere is no difference in
the effect. To ruin a merchant you only
have to go about the streets and say that
he is about to 90 under, that he will not
comply With his ohligaafAfqqaps, This finishes
him. The Adjusters swear that Virginia
t S a tSss sS VIII y. s ta.t s a
will finish her credit.
They also object to being called Fofeibls
Adjusters and say they don't want force.
Voting to break or paralyze the obligation

WHO TT IS THAT rs MAKING THE
ROW

hOW
We find a good deal of assistance on the
subject of this State debt in looking over
the files of our able neighbor the "Valley
Virginian." And just here word of ex-
PLANTATION. So great was the astOnish-
ment caused among some of the Adjusters
by our republication last week of an edi-
torial from the "Virginian".o 1874, that
one of them writes to know If it isn't a
joke on that paper. We assure them that
it is reprinted word for word as it appeared
there. To-day we are under further obi
cations to the "Virginian" for telling us
and the people who it is that commenced
this agitation as early as February I'd,
1871. The ''Virginian" OF that day says
"This hue and cry about the forlorn con-
dition of the people of the Valley comes
from people generally who had they been
brought down to the square in 1850 were
then insolvent. They held possession of
their property through the Indulgence Of
their creditors. The stay law was enacted
to give them time to pay their indebtedness
by instruments, but instead OF starting to
do this, and meet their obligations, they
reSOrted to every shit not To pay, hoping,
like Micawber, that something would
turn up" which would entirely relieve
them of their honest debts. Those massive
Judgment d0ckets in our courts are the
result of ante. war debts many OF which
might have been PAID before this time il
economy had been practiced and a DISPOSE
ton to pay controlled. This is the plain
truth of the case, whether it is palatable
or not. We repeat that the people
of the Valley are in no worse condition, in
truth than they were before the war and
they are able to pay their debts as a people
| and they will do it.
We do not wish to drive emigration and
capital from our beautiful Valley by des
pairing groans. when there is no real CAUSE
| for them.'

THE TICKETS.

The Adjusters are trying to run the name
of Farmers ticket" The claim to this
needs verification. The first Adjusters
meeting had rs farmers out of the 1900 in
Augusta in it; the second meeting, the
Boarding House caucus, which selected
ths ti;ket, had 3s farmers out of the 1000.
1t is in 40 sense of the word farmers
ticket, neither az representing them nor
their interests. Let the views of the gen.
tlemen on it prevail in the Virginia legisla-
ture, and the merchant in Richmond will
be unable to borrow money to buy the Au-
gusta farmers -four, and the Augusta far
mer who is just entering upon series of
good crops will have more hard times wi b
his wheat in his barn, or sold at 80 cents a
bushel. The Adjusters ticket ought to be
called the death of the Farmers" ticket,or
still better "The Valley Virginian ticket. 2"

How RApN11M GOT HIS WIFE,

How BARNUM GOT His WIFE,
When Barnum's show was here (Atchison,
Kansas, several years ago, his treasury
took sick, and was left at the Massasolt
House. He died there and was buried
there, we believe. He was engaged to
marry Miss Fish; sister of Barnum's
present treasurer. After his death it be-
came necessary for Miss Fish to write
several letters to Mr.. Barnum in reference
to her dead lover. Balnum admired her
we'll written letters, sought an acqSaln-

CA LING A SPADE A NPADE.
In 1873, Feb. 9th, our neighbor the
Valley "Virginian"in an article on the
State debt calls things by their names:
1.-The plain unvarnished truth about
this matter of the State debt lies just in
this: Either the dsot must be paid dollar
for dollar, honestly and Justly or repudia,
ton in some form must he accepte!. And
the same is true Of private indebtedness.
Expedients may be chosen bearing fine

Dooley, in company with SOME other ladies',
Aas standing ON tie track, and the engl-

off, did not diminish the rate OF speed un-

ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY BUSHELS
TO THE ACRE.-Mr. j. S. Taylor, of Tn
ion township, Lewis county, Mo-. has a
field of corn which according to the most
accurate measurement that can be made in
the the field, will yield 1850 bushels to the
acre. The measurement Was made by
three reliable men, who have no interest
in exaggerating the result. The field which
is very rich, was first planted in the latter
part of April, in rows three feet nine in
ches apart, but the weather was cold and
the corn came up badly, two thirds rot
ting in the ground. The remaining third
was left standing, and the whole field was
replanted in new rows between the old
ones. The result was that there was a
third more corn planted in the field than
is usual to put in. The yield-16O bushels
to the acre-1is the largest ever reported in
Missouri. Several of Mr.. Taylor's neigh
bors have crops very little inferior to his !;
Mr.. VIM M. Porter of the same township,
has field certified to contain 100 bushels
to the ACRE, and Mr.. James Collins, of
Hickson township, has certificate of a yield
of 1$5 bushels to The aere.-Chicago Times.

can didates for the Senate and House in relation
to the reduction of the salaries of members,
with view of securing shorter sessions Of the
Legislature and consequent saving Of expense,
reoly that fully concur with them in the Oh

pressed the belief that the most effectual remedy

picking changes and unnecessary expenses
would be adopt the rule of the English Par
