PERsoNAL.-On Tuesday last Rev. DIR.
John T. Wheat, well remembered in Staun-
ton, the father Of Leo Wheat, and Of the
gallant Col. r. G. Wheat who was killed in
Virginia during the war, passed through
here Tuesday evening On his way to Lew
isburg, W. Va, where, we learn, he is look
ing out for permanent home.
The Halifax Teachers, Institute was ad-
dressed few days ago by Maj. Jed Hotch-
kiss, DR.. Ruffner and others. The RE
cord" says:
The last and GROWING address was de-
livered On Friday night by Maj. Hotchl1iss
on Stonewall Jackson's ''Valley Cam
paign'' The lecturer spoke as a patriot,
a soldier and and scholar. and no one pres
ent could fail to get clearer idea of Jack
sons military genius, or to feel that the
hero's name had been encircled with new
and brighter halo.
We see that Col James A. Hoyt Of the
AndersonS S. G. s'Intelligencer" has become
editor Of the ''Register,' the leading Demo
cratic paper published at Columbia, the
South Carolina State Capital. Col. H. is a
native of Waynesboro in this county, and
has done credit to his native town abroad.

LEO WHEAT's CoNCERT.-Mr. Wheat
concert, in which the Richmond Monu-
mental choir will appear, is postponed, and
unavoidably so, until the nights Of Monday
and Tuesday, May 2Sth and 10Th. Mr.
Wheat is a most reliable artist, and gives
us, in letter, reasons why he could not
comply with his first appointment, his So
prano and alto having previously engaged
for a cantata in Richmond on the nights
first appointed here. We learn that special
will be made with the rail
roads, which will facilitate persons from
the neigboring towns in reaching Staunton,
Oh the nights now named.
1t is quite superfuous for US to COM
mend MI. Leo. Wheat's programme to the
public. The musical public iii both sec
tions OF the country have endorsed him, and
our own has learned much from him. His
will be instructive and re-
lining. Of the vocalists he brings with
him Grant (bass) and BEDFORD (tenor), are
splendid voices, and of the ladies, while
we have not heard them, it is much to say
that Mr.. Wheat allows their artistic quail
fcations a place at one OF his concerts.

LONDON, March l3 THE Times ssys:
To-day will be memorable in the his
DRY of the eastern question. The csbi.
net meets to consider the termsof agree.
ment among the powers. 1t does not
contain any engagement to use coercion
in any form. The powers will employ
their diplomatic influence in favor Of
reforms. The conference decided this
necessary, but further than this they
will not go. No time is fixed within
which the powers are to use their in
Auence, or after which they are to con.
slider their efforts have failed. When a
proposal which Lord Derby submits to
his colleagues has been accepted by
other European powers, it is expected
that Russia will declare herself satisfied,
and rehabilitation will follow in due
course. A protocol to be signed by the
porte and countersigqed by the powers
is the form of agreement most in
favor" The article continues: " We be-
lieve, if England accepts this, all the
other powers will. il then depends upon
the temper in which the porte receives
the agreement to show whether we are
on the path to final pacifcation. The
s%ultsu's government has shown no desire
to come to terms with Russia. We can
only hope that the porte will not by &C.
ton or inaction, by purposeless defiance
or ill-timed obstinacy, Illustrate the sin.
cere attempts Of the other states to avert
war. There has as yet been no begin
ming Of better rule, and the condition Of
the provinces, which wers the original
seats Of insurrection, is pitiable in the
extreme. The powers will become once
more s%ureties for the Turkish govern
ment, and should they fail the ED mus
coma at last"

"MR. KEY" says the Washing

numerous letters from people in the
South asking for appointments to
office. A Methodist minister OF
Tennessee writes and says that he
thinks a great many Of Grants ap-
pointees have been in long enough
and ought to DO willing to retire.
He says he would like something
good-don't care about a postofice,
but thinks a trip abroad would be
pleasant and beneficial. He closes
by saying: 4 would prefer one Of
the following consulates: Liver

RE NEW HAMPsHIRE ELECTION,

The election for State officers
and congressman in New Hamp-
shire to-day is the last important
election of this year. The three
congressman to be elected complete
the regular elections for the forty
fifth house. In the last house the
First and Second districts were
represented by Democrats. Frank
Jones, it is believed, will be re-
elected from the First district. His
majority at the last election was 336.
In the Second district Alvah H.
Galloway is the Democratic candi-
date. The district is close, the
Democrats having carried it at the
last election by 154 votes, and they
propose to hold it this year. Blair,
Republican, is a candidate for re-
election in the Third district
against Kent (Dem.). The Repub-
licans only carried this district by
fifty majority, two years ago. AS
the Prohibitionists have put out a
full State and congressional ticket
the Republican vote will be much d.
Vided. The Democratic State ticket
is headed by Daniel Marcy,a wealthy
shipping merchant of Portsmouth.
The Republican gubernatorial can
didate is B. F. Prescott, of Effing.
At the State election, last year,
Cheney (Rep.) had a majority for
governor over Macy, the present
Democratic casdidate, of 3647
votes. Kendall, the Prohibition
candidate for governor, received
429 votes. At the election, to-day,
constitutional amendments will be
voted for, and, if adopted, the next
legislature, which will be chosen
at this election, will probably elect
a successor to Senator Wadleigh,
whose term expires in 1879, one of
the amendments providing for bien-
nial legislative sessions. Hayes
carried New Hampshire by about
5000 majority. Of the proposed
amendments to the constitution
the first, seventh and thirteenth re-
late to religious subjects. The
voters are asked: "Do you approve
of striking out the word PRO
testant' in the bill of rights q and
ado you approve Of a%bOlishing the
religious test as qualification for
Office ?" The thirteenth amend
ment refers to the appropriation Of
public school funds to Sectarian
uses.
