Gen. Echols.

At this day when political honesty is admitted
" at low ebb, and demagogism and selfish trick
cry have, to great extent, taken the place of
craftsmanship and patriotism, it is wonderfully
refreshing and agreeable spectacle to believers
in fair dealing to see public man-regardless OF
consequences to himseh-boldly and earnestly
advocating the sacredness of contracts and the
fnlhllment OF pledged faith alike by communities
and Individuals.
Such a spectacle is presented In the manly
course pursued by the gallant Echols in his can
vass in the 7th District. Disdaining to court pop
ular favor:by sacrifice of principle, and despis-
ing all the arts of the demagogue, he seeks to i'm
press upon the people whom he addresses the
idea that honesty is not only the best policy but
that it is the right policy under any and all cir
cumstances, and that "a good name is to be
sought after rather than great riches.''
All honor to John Echols! His noble bearing
in this contest will win for him fame and name
that the mere elevation to office, however high
could never give him. and that will last as long
as men respect honesty and truth.-FarmvtlleMe r-

LOUISE PoMERoY.-The theatrical event
OF the season will take place tomorrow
evening Friday,) at Town Hall, when Louise
Pomeroy, one of Americas present reigning
stars, will appear in her grandest role of
Edith Roylston, in the new society play of
the "Adirondacks," written expressly for
her, and which has proved one of the most
successful of modern productions.
Miss Pomeroy is, we are led to believe
supported by a New York cast of especially
selected artists, the whole company forming
one of the strongest organizations now on
the road. and comprising such artists as
Messrs. W. Fl. Leake, Jos. L. Mason, Geo. s.
Grey, Edwin Browne, Robert Ewton, G. G.
Vanpel, and the Misses Estelle Mortimer,
Alice G. Sherwood, Lizzie Hardie, &C., &c.
The play of the Adirondacks is replete
with many most exciting and sensational
situations, and has invariably reused the au-
diences to the highest pitch of enthusiasm
wherever it has been presented. 1t is a COM
bination of the comedy and drama, and not
only calls forth the dramatic abilities of Miss
Pomeroy, but Of the entire company, and to
which they respond most handsomely. Our
theatrical loving public who appreciate a
genuine first class performance, should not
falllto be present at the performance to be
given tomorrow night.
Seats can be secured at Olivier's Book
Store, as per our advertising columns.

Harris did not deny or admit that he was a
member of the club, and said that he favored
the same kind Of paper money now in cir
culation.
General Echols then proceeded to give a
calm, dignifed presentation of the real con-
dition of the country and the causes that had
brought it about. His assertions were forth
fed by official figures and incontrovertible
facts, and his entire speech was in bold con-
trast to those which preceded it. It has
already been laid before our readers.
When General Echols closed, Judge Har-
ris stated that he was feeling so unwell and
as the people were tired he would waive the
rejoinders if his competitors would agree.
Neither offered any objections, and the
Judge cried out, Goodbye, now, and all of
you come to see me at Washington next
winter !"
Paul put in the last shot by saying that
he would be happy to receive them ia Wash-
ington next spring, and so the great day
was ended.

Corrections.

Valley Virginian:-Please allow me to
call attention to some inaccuracies in the re-
port of the Anniversary of the Baptist
Church." which appeared in your last issue.
l It was DR.. Curry, not DR.. Jeter, who
preached Saturday night.
2. In the History of the church, under
date of Feb. 18th, 1858, it should have been
stated that four, instead of 'tAree additional
Deacons were elected" and the name of G..
R. Mason, should be added to the three men
toned.
8 In DR.. Taylor's letter, / am satisfied,
from the records Of the church, that the date
of his preaching the Dedication Sermon and
his Introductory as Pastor, ought to be stat
ed as the!2d Sunday in December, instead Of
October, 1857.
By making these corrections, you will add
to the favor already shown in your publca-
ton of the papers alluded to.
Yours very truly,
CHARLES MANLY.
