Trouble seems 10 be brewing among the
Conservatives OF Dinwiddie. It Is claimed
ny Mr.. S. Y. Gillian aud his friends that
DR.. Z. c. Powell was not fairly nominated
by the meeting held on Monday last, and
that they will not be bound by that nom-
nation. Mr.. Gillian was prominent cam
didate for the nomination, and the ballot,
as announced. showed that he ran but little
behind Dr. Powell. Mr.. Gillian declares
that the matter is now under Amusement,
and the people will act as their interest and
rights may demand. 1t is hoped ali differ
cnces may be adjusted so as to prevent the
election OF a Radical.

GOOCHLAND COUNTY.
GOOCHLAND COURTHOUSE,
September Is, 1877.


correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.l
Now that the Convention is over and moth
ing OF especial interest occurring, perhaps
YOU may find room in your columns Tor a
letter from oochland-particn!arly as we
wish it to convey our grateful thanks TO
some OF Richmond's citizens for kindly SER
vices rendered.
For some time we have been anticipating
most pleasantly a concert to be given by
.'thc Eureka Quartette" Of your city, and
on the evening Of the 18th we found our
selves, together with number of ladies
and gentlemen, winding our way to Hebron
church, where speedily assembled the elite
OF Goochland, all prepared to be charmed
with the promised entertainment. Rarely
has it been our lot to see so much beauty in
any assembly.
Where all were so charming, it would
seem inyidious to single out one; but
trust we may be pardoned for saying one OF
Richmond's daughters shone preemlnent
for beauty and grace, and her lovely fair
face, framed in lace-likc nubia, will long
linger in the memory Of all who saw her
vending button-hole bouquets. They were
seen, badge OF honor, adjoining the coats
OF all the young gentlemen present.
Miss Booth, OF Petersburg; Miss Wyatt,
Dir. II. c. Wyatt, Mr.. Wood, Mr.. Monte
Walker, and Mr.. Dasbiell, of Richmond,
constituted the band OF musicians. The
soft, melting tones OF Miss Booths voice
thrilled our hearts with their exquisite melo-
dy, and gave us pleasure not soon to be for
gotten; while Miss WAITS bird-lke notes
and piquant manner captivated all hearts.
Mr.. Wyatt delighted us with his rendition
OF "Tne Heart Bowed Down." and only a
true artistic appreciation OF music could
have enabled him to render the song with
that feeling and expression which drew
tears to eyes unused to weep.
Messrs. Wood, Walker, and Dashiell re-
ceiye, as they deserve, the thanks OF all pre-
sent for their delightful addition to the en-
tertainment.
During the interval the company ad-
iourned to the reYreshment-tables, made
beautiful with flowers and fruits, and all
did ample justice to the delicious ices, the
product OF the unrivaled PiZzini's skill, to
say nothing OF more substantial viands con-
tributed by the ladies OF the neighborhood.
Thus closed one Of the pleasantcst eve
nngs We have ever spent, and we hope at
no distant day TO welcome in our midst the
kindly musicians who so nobly and gene
rously donated their services to this church,
and thus endeared themselves to all who
feel an interest in it. ANONYMOUS.
