Editors DISPATCH: We congratulate Rich
mond upon the grand civic and military
,jIsnlay upon the inauguration OF Governor
Holiday. What is the use Of being always
I. down in lie depths 2" We arc Holiday
man. and are glad TO know that he is de-
tcrmined to pay the State debt. III lie
could purchase che rc;diustcrs for what
they arc really worth and sell them for what
they (harc the vanitv toy think they are
worth, he would make speculation that
would not only pay the debt OF Virginia,
but the debt Of tie entire nation.
We do not know who writes the edito-
rails for the Dispatch q. e., which OF its
worthy cditorS), but he is doing good
work. We were amused at the idea OF
those little fellows in the Legislature trying
to capture tbc new Governor. Aswe!l expect
q tlotila Of chestnut-hulls tor sink an IRON
clad, or. changing the figure, to COM
pare the solemn notes OF the melancholy
bu!.fro@ TO the pcaling anthem /" OF "the
morning stars" That's "the kind OF man !"
the new Governor is. II he would appoint
liz a colonel we would go down to Rich
mond and, with one foot on the pedestal OF
.JacksoR's statue and the other on the
flowing name OF Washinston's war
c!iainSf, we NUui(t SclZc every lOi ClliC
rc&diuster and fling him to the
island OF Juan Fernando. 1t seems that
our grand old State, like Samson OF old, has
placed her head in Il Dclilah's lap, and the
Borb0ur is ever ready to shear the locks OF
her beauty and strength. But with the
voice of Il Holiday to remind her of i'm
pending danger the green withes Of repu-
dation and the new ropes OF forciblc read
justmcnt will he broken $50 quick it'll make
your head SWIM" The suggestion Of the
Dispatch TO give all the forcible readjusters
fat Offices would be 4 good way to stop their
clamor about the debt; but il they could
be transported to Herculaneum and Pompeii
TO enjoy the benefits Of sudden Eruption Of
Vesuvlus, perhaps some enterpri5ing eX-
cavator about six thousand years hence
might be able to find the Committee on
Finance ready to report feasible plan for
the payment OF the State debt.
The only objection we have to the Dis
patch is that it takes too much notice OF the
di>turbers Of the public peace. Let them
"scvcrely alone" and they will soon be
buried so deep that "the hand OF resurrec-
lion will never reach them" Your paper is
now power in Virginia. 1t is doing much
to vitaize and energize 4 sentiment that
will make the dear old State walk in grandeur
from the very shadows OF gloom.

HARTFORD, January 16.--The railroad ac-
cjdeut at Tariffvil,e occurred at the trestle-
bridge crossing, bennington river, just
west oil the village. The train was bound
for MiIlertop. aad carried passengers for all
stations between this city and that place
who came in to attend the Moody and San
key meeting. Two engines, baggage-ear,
and three passenger-coacbes went down at
the western end OF the bridge, the engine
reaching the shore, three cars breaking
through the ice in three feet OF water, and
one car resting or It's end on the pier.
Seven bodies had been recovered up TO =
o'clock, and il is almost certain six more are
in the wreck. The wounded may be num-
bercd at forty, among them several serious
". Special trains from Winsted and Hart
ford, bearing surgeons, reached the scene mt
LAO 4. NJ, soon after the accident. The
factory and church-beils were rung, and the
citizens rallied, doing all that was possible.
The bodies were taken on planks or rude
sleds across the ice to the Tariffville side.
The wounded and dead were mostly put on
the Hartford special. A few were left at
TariGville and Hartiordyille, and train
took the rest round by Piainsyille, on the
Fishkill and Canal roads, to New Hartford,
on the Western road.

WEST POINT, VA, January 1G, 1878.
The editors OF the West Point Star have
been sued in this county in ibcl-damages,
$4,000. The party plaintiffs Mr.. Straughan
Luckhard, Of Charles City, lately prosecuted
in that county for the murder of young
Englshman. The rumor was that this
murder, if murder it was, was committed
in very outrageous and brutal manner,
and the star, in giving expression to this
report, has brought vengeance upon its de-
voted head. Luckhard was indicted for
murder, but upon trial was found guilty OF
assault and battery simply.
Our people are looking with consiiera1 Die
interest to the fulflment OF the loud prom
ises OF the reddjusters, and some Of lis are
SO skeptical as to begin to think OF ga

Yes. The goose-hone may safely pre-
dict warm weather in July or cold in JAN

SUDDEN DEATH.-Our community was
shocked last Tuesday morning by hearing of
the sudden death Of Mr.. D. D. N. Diggcs,
land agent in Gordonsyile, which sad event
occurred at his residence, in Gordonsville,
Tuesday morning about 4 O'Clock. On Mon
day night he returned from Louisa, and APP
peared to be in good health. He gave Or
ders upon retiring that lie should be called
in time for the accommodation train. During
the night he awoke feeling badly, and DR..
Slaughter was called in. Everything was
done tina. medical skill could suggest but to
no effect, and about o'clock he expired.
Dr. Slaughter pronounced it case OF apo
plexy. Mr.. Digges was forty-eight years Of
age, and leaves seven children-three boys
and four girls--to mourn his death. Mr.

three months ago for stupendous swindling

to learn the names OF al those engaged in

These names-at least che greater part OF

Amos p. Foster, of the United States

Stevens. and who has ever since been
engaged in working mp the case. The
publication OF the names is important,
for the reason that large quantities OF land
were sold OF transferred by members OF the
gang in most OF the western and southern
States, and it is pretty nearly certain that
all the titles which have emanated for
the past eight or ten years from any OF these

trial thereof the recent indictments for vio-

Some amusement was created yesterday
when the case against Sefer Blouse came up
by the fact Of the accused defending HIM
self without the intervention Of a lawyer.
1t was shown in the evidence that he had not
only registered drinks, but even horse-cakes,
cigars, matches, and soap. So plain and
evidently true was Blouse's statement that
the Jury found Il verdict OF not guilty, with
out leaving their seats.-1leIandria Ca

JACKSONVILLE, January Ex-senator Nor.
risscy's condition was exceedingly critical
to-day, but there is change for the better
tonight. His mind wanders at times. He
has given his wife full directions regarding
the closing-up OF his business. His malady
is Bright's disease and disease OF the heart.
His physicians say unless there is change in
the next forty eight hours there would be
no use to hope. His wife appears to have
given up all hope.
