With deep sympathy for the parents, we are called upon to chronicle the death of Hat tie, only daughter of Mir & Mrs. J. H. Peters who departed this life on Tuesday, 26th ult., in the sixth year of her age The funeral was in St Andrews Church on Thursday afternoon, where gathered large number of friends to tender their sympathy to the parents in this their sad bereavement. Rev. Mir. s. E. Sur ges preached the funeral sermon, taking his text from Job, first, 31st, ''The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away blessed be the name of the Lord"
 The temperance meetings which have been held in the town hall every evening since the 1st inst, have been well attended, and we are told nearly three hundred have signed the pledge and ''dOnned the blue." Messrs Hill & Bradford seem to persevere with untiring energy in the noble cause. Last but not least worthy of mention, was presented to us, on Friday evening, Mir. Frank Brady of Phila- delphia, who is listened to with marked at tention. May God grant him health, happi- ness, and long life. The Kent Christian Fem. perance Union organized on Sabbath evening with Dea- l.. W. Stone, President; Rev. Mir. Sturgss, Vice President; Mir. W. Watson Sec rstary; and Mr. Jeremiah Fuller Treasurer The donations for the good cause were about $4O from Macedonia $1O from this wealthy village and SC from Flanders. If we have made mistakes in our figures we will try and correct them in our next. Thanks to our friends from New Milford and New Preston for their kind assistance. We shall be glad to see the ''boys in blue" often with us.

 The stock of the ''Wolcottville Water Company" was all subscribed within five days after the books were opened. The pipe has been bought, and the services of Wm B.

quent defeat of the ticketnominated by the
readjusters, are in the highest degree salts
factory to the whole State, and gratifying
to her friends beyond her borders, as afford
ing at least some evidence OF a.better feel
ing on the part OF her Legislators In refer
ence to the sState-debt question than was
supposed to exist, the fact that forty-tWo
members, elected solely because they were
Conservatives deserted their party and
Joined with It's enemies, the Independents
and Radicals, for no other reason or possible
purpose than to weaken and disrupt 1t. IS
by no means a subject Of plsasurable refec-t

that the experience Of yesterday and the.

men acquired By reason Of his Unnatural 20.

rpe,ersburg Appeal


So many curious things have happened
in connection with the organization and
Decentralization of parties In the Legisla-
ture OF Virginia that it is not easy to anti
cipate what will come to pass hereafter. He
would be arash man who would venture to
rule out any situation, combination, or re-
suit as being impossible, or even improba-
Bile. With the present legislature oil Things
are possible, except harmony and attention
to business. But. what we had meant to
refer to was the desertion by Senator Que
senberry Of sthe caucus over which he had
presided since it originally organized under
DR., Robinson, and which had come to be
known by the Senator's own name. We
should think such circumstance as this
was very severe blow to the claims and
pretensions OF the Simon-P lures. 1t is as ii
Don Carols had abdicated the command OF
the CarIist forces and acknowledged that
Alfonso was the rightful King. We do not
see how the cause can be very well kept in
motion, or even in existence, when the
acknowledged head OF it admits in this
manner that he and his people do not rep
resent the majority and have no right to
bind the action OF the party. II things
happened in Richmond in accordance with
the laws Of nature which generally prevail
elsewhere it would seem that the Simon
Pures ought to hang up their weapons
after this declaration from their head and
60 inso liquidation Of their affairs. 1t re-
mains to be seen, however, what course will
be taken by affairs and men. The present
confusion that exists is past the solution OF
the proverbial Philadelphia lawyer. The
merits of the case seem very clear to our
ewes. it is true; but other people think the
same thing and arrive at different conclu.
sion. But there can be no doubt OF the ac-
curacy of this moral reflection: That if the
Conservative party remains broken and
discordant at the State capital it cannot be
expected to remain united and harmonious
among the people. II Independents are
allowed full swing at Richmond it will
not be easy to keep them suppressed in
the provinces. II the safety and interests
and destiny and history Of the Conservative
party cease to charm the ears and move the
hearts and inspire the action Of the party
leaders, these invocations will not be par
ticularly ef1icacious when rung in the ears
of the voting masses. Nothing could be
more unfortunate than this state Of things,
and heavy responsibility rests somewhere
that ever it came about. The fruits Of 1t
do not yet appear fully; but they will per-
haps appear next May. The authors OF the
distraction and perhaps the destruction that
may come upon the party OF our faith and
allegiance will then, perhaps, realize the
| folly and error OF their course, and behold
the consequences which will inevitably fol
low in its train.

Partisan Tricks.

Tn the late State Convention, after sew.
cral ballots, the friends OF General Ma
hone ascertained that their candidate
was doomed to defeat il allowed to run
single-handed against Major Daniel. In
order to prevent this result they unan-
imously resolved to abandon the "much-
neglected" Southside, and went way
over into the Valley and selected Colonel
Holiday as the man above all others worthy
to receive the favors OF the Little Corpo-
ral' and his friends. After the choice OF
Holiday this same party boosted that they
had "named" the Governor, and appeared
as happy over their victory (?) as militia
captain at Il general muster.
Now, after months have elapsed, and this
party find that Holiday is not TO be used
for party purposes-notwithstandlng the
fact that the Governors views on the debt
question were as well known previous to
his nomination as since his Inauguration
a red-hot S. 2. r. in the Wig admonshes
his party friends never again TO vote for
any man for office aohoSe opinions they do
not kn01u, This is an acknowledgment we
did not expect from that quarter, for we
are perfectly satisfied that the members
OF the Convention did knolo that Colonel
Holiday and General Malone held entirely
different opinions on the debt question, and
as they were compelled to vote for either
Daniel or Holiday, they desired to gain in
fiuence for their defeated fayorite for the
office OF United States senator, from the
Valley, and in this way make the best-pay-
ing investment of their limited political in
fuence, notwithstanding the eNpectant
would be compelled to wait the uncertain
developments of q dim and distant future.
The fact is that Colonel Holiday was
elected by the people-men OF all parties
having cast their sufrages for him-and il
his opinions OH the debt question were not
known is it the fault OF Colone! Holiday
Did not every Malone paper in the State, as
we'll as some who opposed him, advise and
demand his silence during the canvass
Whoo then, is to blame in this matter but the
very maneuvring partisans who claimed
to have "named" him for Governor?
II the Observation-Disclosures faction nave
been SHARED in their efforts to get wool
from others they are to blame, and the ef-
fort to throw the responsibility upon others
is OF the same character OF tactics as those
adopted in the State Convention, when,
after having clustered and bullied all who
disagreed with their choice when the real
opportunity offered to try the strength OF
their candidates, General Mahone's friends
ingloriously surrendered to one whom they
pretend now not to have known what bis
real views were upon the very question
originated by their own chosen candidate
in the canvass. -NorfolE Ledger.

The Struggle in the Legislature.

The readiusters have come tc grief.
Their chairman, Dr.. Quesenberry, has re-
tired from the caucus with several others OF
its leading members, leaving but mixed
mob Of so-called Conservatives and indie
pendents. among whom we are sorry to
find one of the representatives from Nor
folk city, DR.. Z. C. Robinson. In the words
Of one Of its most prominent and ablest men,
bers, Mr.. Fulkerson. it "presented most
pitiful spectacle"
The Conservative Convention proper held
a most harmonious session, and made its
nominations for basement officers. Its
nominees will receive large majority Of
the Conservative, votes Of lighthouses, and
unless the Republicans rally soidly to the
support of the readiusters will be elected.
The readiusters can only hope to succeed
by fusion with the Republicans, and that
will be dear victory for them, purchased,
as it will be, by the triumph Of Republi-
can minority over Conservative majority
by reason OF the treachery Of Conservatives.
