r. Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.l
isg- F1ECxsrIE VA. September o, 1879.
The soyeretcns of Botetourt had the
privilege of hearing on Monday yesterday
The Hon. j. r. Tucker on the debt question.
For about three hours he held the undl-
vided attention of his audience, and couid
have held it three hours longer. Though q
considerable number Of bis hearers were
ResdJusters, in our Judgment he carried
conviction TO every mind. Tpe secret OF
his eloauence is perfect simplicity ana clear
ness, and thorough sincerity ana earnest
ness. There was not hey nor negro IN
the crowded courthouse who ala not thor
oughIy mprehend all his positions and
feel their crushing force. Not that every
Readiuster became an ayowed Debt-pay Ell.
Human opinions, alas, are not always FORM
ed by reason and justice, but often by an
evil will and q wicked prejudice. Many,
however, who were undecided from igno-
rance Of the merits Of the question were
brought to q firm stand for State honor,
and the enthusiasm Of Debt-rayers was
vastly increased.
| The drift Of the argument was to show
the essential dishonesty Of the ReidiuSters'
position. This was so successfully done
that we felt sorry as we attempted to fancy
the emotions of men who are not only
charged with stealing but are hearing the
charge proved.
Mr. Tucker was followed by Hon. W. W.
Berry, Of Bedford, who demonstrated that
the McCulloch bill is a measure Of the Con-
serVative party Of Virginia, and therefore
entitled TO the support OF all who honor the
record Of that party; and that the oppoSi-
ton are Disorsanizers, and the worst Of all
Disorganizers are those who pull down but
who offer nothing wherewith 10 build again.
The proceedings of the day were inaugu-
rated BY two short but wel-timcd and SEN
sible speeches from Dir. John Ross, county
candidate for the House Of Delegates, and
Captain J. 81. II. Figgatt, district nominee
for the Senate. These gentlemen aimed to
do no more than define their positions.
They placed themselves squarely upon the
honest mans platform.
The DAY was closed by some remarks
from Mr.. L. Wilson's young politician on the
Rcadjusters' side. Not having heard bis
remarks, we cannot pass upon their merits.
We understand. however, that no discus
sion OF the subject was attempted by him.
After this, Mr.. Lewis Linkenhoker was an-
nounced as Rcadiuster candidate for the
House Of Delegates.
We omitted to state at the outset that
Judge Allen, chairman of the County Con-
servatiye Committee, presided over the
meeting, and at its opening announced a
| mass.meetine of the citizens OF Botetourt.
10 be held at the October court, winch all
citizens of both parties were invited to at
tend, and al which the Reiiiusters were
especially requested to have their spokcs-
men ready for fair and open discussion.

.LuNENBURG.- true and high.toned Vir
ginian gives "snafl1e. bit " sketch of the
debate in Lunenburg between Mr. CANE.
RON, mayor OF Petersburg, and Colone
GEORGE D. WISE, Of this city. 1t was q
spirited affair; but we cannot but regret
that Mr.. CAMERoN's present views and com.
aunicatisns have placed him in such posi-
ton that Colonel WISE was enabled to
quote CAMERON against CAMERON with very
decided, effect. We cannot now see why
this should be. Certainiyif such inconsist'
eney was to, occur we would be much bet
ter satisfied if bis last stand had been in
favor Of the independence, dignity, ane
integrity of the Commonwealth. That
would be far more gratifying to his friends
and beyond question it would be more ad.
vaatageoas to the fame and reputation Of
the worthy Mayor.

The distinguished Richmond gentleman
booked for Williamsburg for to-day having

people, delivered ringing speeches in ad.

paign and in bold charges upon its enemies
These speeches gave no uncertain sound
They were understood by all as manly,
grand, patriotic pleas for honor. honesty,
and country. Everybody regretted the alb.
sence Of Mr. Page; but after the efforts
alluded 10 no one felt The necessity OF bis
presence.
Mr.. Smith dealt principally with suhslaE.

the history Of our present indebtedness

Mr.. Armlstead, after putting up the little
gaps that Mfr. Smith had Intentionally left
down, and doubling; the blows upon the
most vital parts, proceeded at length to
treat OF the morality OF the thing. With

General Lee and the Debt.

1t was not n bad hit made by DR.. Mon
TEIRO at Louisa Courthouse when CON-
menting upon mir. MARSHALL AMBLER's
statement that he remained in the rear at
one period of our Confederate struggle
under the advice OF General ROBERT L.
LEE. DR.. MoNTEIRo asked, since General
LEES name had been called in connection
with advices, was there man before him
who believed that General LEE would ever
have aduised Virginia 10 repudiate her
debt? That was something to think OF.
