BROTHER LAFFERTY. 1t was stated q few
DAYS ago in the Richmond correspondence
OF this paper that the speeches made in that
city last week by the presidential party and
by the Virginia digntaries who received
them were reported in shorthand by Rev.
J. J. Laflerty, one OF the editors OF the
Christian Advocate, hy whom the notes
were also translated into ordinary text and
furnished the press for publication. This
was a labor Of love OF high value when the
additional statement is considered that no
other short-hand reporter was on the ground.
and that except for this service the oratory
OF the occasion would have been lost en-
trely or only retained the imperfect and
condensed form OF CRATIC o6tiqua. [Just so.
That's all there is in 0. o.-DiSpatch.]
Mr.. Latlerty, who was the opportunc
means OF spreading this powerful speech
before the world, is one Of the most accom-
piished men in the State, being not only the
master OF short hand lin itself most diff
cult study, but OF numerous languages,
and OF a most brilliant and graphic literary
style. When DR.. Lafferty for he is a doc
tor OF divinity edited the Lexington Ca
zette it was Justly considered the most lively
newspaper in the State. Since he has had
charge, in part, OF the Advocate, his genius
has lent vigor and polish to its every issue,
and stamped it rs one OF the most original,
inciSive, and attractive religious papers in
the country. Brother Laflcrty is Il native
OF Petersburg, OF whom her people have
good reason to be proud. Petersburg 1p-
