This is the statement of the exact thlng
that may be now done for the best, ana
which cannot be made any better. Inc
laws that have been contrived for Tie adj
vantage OF Republican partisans, and when
the Federal Executive CONSTITUTES to be
"for the protection Of elections" shielded
by the presidential veto, will be brought
out in bold relief as an outrage upon the
freedom OF elections instead OF means OF
protection for elections, and the issue there
upon cannot fail to enure to the advantage
OF liberty, unless the spirit Of freedom IN
the land is in state OF decay and oppressed
with the party corruptions Of the day.
But any other alternative than voting the
appropriations and appealing to the indie
pendent spirit Of the people-to their love
OF freedom and equality would achieve no
greater advantage.

ATTEMPT TO PASS FORGED CHECK.-
Cuipeper, Va, April 29.-An unsuccessful
attempt to pass a forged check occurred
here to-day. A young man, about six feet
tall, came into the clearinghouse Of HiXey
Brothers and presented check for $3.50,
signed by Stephen Hicks. The cashier i'm
mediately recognized it as a forgery, and
stepped out in the street to call an officer,
when the man slipped out and made bis
escape. His name is John kessner alias
j. B. Blair, and was newcomer in our
town. The officer made an unsuccessful
attempt to overtake him.-Spectat to the

Correspondence Of the Richmond Dispatch.1
BUFFALO SPRINGS, Va, April %, 1879.
Recent observations extending through
this and the adjoining county OF Charlotte
impress me with the evident determination
OF the people to prosecute with increased
zeal and yigor their agricultural operations
The seasons so far have been unusually pro-
pitiOuS, and the prospects FOR "heat crop
are gratifying; the oats encourasih"' w.
large yield not expected on account vi tue
extreme cold weather during the past WIN.

corn far advanced. Of the former smaller
aroo will he cultivated than usual. an effort
70 make ND in quality what may be deficient
in quantity. ,>,,,
The low nrice Of the tobacco now on hand

Of transportation for corn from this section
rendering that commodity subject TO only
a local demand. These four articles are eX.
clusiyely the money-products OF this Sec
lion. Fruits, vegetables, and grasses, al
though they flourish and mature to perfec-
ton. cannot be made available for want OF
near market facilities. But, notwilhstand-
ing these obstacles to rapid advancement
and recupcraton, the people are adapting
| themselves with wonderful promptitude
and good cheer to the changed condition
OF affairs, fully realizing their situation,
and endeavoring by diligent and continued
labor to cXtricate themselves from difficult
ties. Mutual confidence is being re-
stored. specie resumption is accomplished,
| litigation has diminished, individual and
county expenses have been greatly reduced,
and all the most intelligent people with
whom have conyersed rejoice over the set
Element OF the State debt question and trust
it is a finality, and in future its discussion
will be excluded from the political arena.
The settlement of the tax on tobacco they
hope will remain where it is at present, aud
that there will be no more agitation con-
corning it. Ii we can have this tobacco and
State-debt matter definitely. permanently,
and finally fixed, additional prosperity and
fresh impetus will be given to all branches
OF industrial pursuits; the State would be
in greaty-improyed condition, and all the
citizens would be infused with new life and
emerge with newborn strength from the
troubles and embarrassments to which they
have been so long accustomed.
The excitement about local politics exists
more In the minds Of the numerous candi-
dates for different offices than with the peo-
pie at large. The attendance at various
courts is generally diminishing, and the
country-store and village politician /" will
soon be an institution Of the past. The
fiery ordeal OF poverty and hardship
through which the people have passed in
the last few years have induced them to
think more about their actual and neces-
say wants, and recover their vanished for
tunes, tisn by mingling with local politi-
Clans and vaipiy pursuing Utonian schemes
which cannot possibly accomplish any pub.

The Negro Exodus.

This affair. worked up by combination
OF very bad and vindictive persons with
view to iniury OF the South, is rapidly
diving out. 1t was a little more than the
wretched Republican ultras were equai TO.
II was too big a thing. 1t could not adj
vance in any considerable degree without
an amount of money which could not be
thanked down. Even with money the 4" en-.
FAINT terrible" had to be tended and nursed.
He was struggling with adverse tempta-
lions and constantly accommodating wants
and distresses which he kne" not how to
oppose. He was always waiting and trust
ing to the assistance Of false friends, and as
time fed by he was getting deeper and
deeper in trouble.
The telegraphic accounts about the negro
movements in St. Louis are very ineXplicit.
The word thousands /" appears in the
neiehborhood OF 100" and 1900" and
JAY GOULD is said to have offered 200 OF
them transportation on his railroad to Law
renee, Kansas.
There is really no show Of any large num-
Der transported between given points; but 1t
is clearly enough stated that there is destitu-
ton all about where the poor negroes are.
They are destitute. They are left to their
troubles. They are not welcomed where
they 60. The people in the section they
have been ioisted upon IRE not able to 1eed
and clothe them. 1t Is not improbable that
it will be charged that southern people are
helping to starye the poor negroes. II
would be OF piece with the accusations
brought against many whites in Louisiana
OF prosecutions and buildozing.
Thus will the complicated abortion of ne
gro emigration founder on through the pc
Rod it lssts, doing the negro no good ant
causing considerable disturbance amongsl
the white communities OF the West. Their
northern fellow-citizens don't scruple a,
making them unhappy to advance theil
mean party tricks, and after bringing them
to injury and distress, and the negro into 8
dilemma out Of which he will be left to gel
the best way he can, the northern philan'
thropist will shake OF the whole affair as
easily as he can.
The thing, we say, Was too big, and CAM
be carried out. The expectations Of the vi
cious tricksters won't pay. With all theiI
meanness and cunning and all their heart.
less cruelty they will take nothing by thei,
motion. They won't be able to injure the
South by the loss OF one congressman. The
South is the natural land Of the African.
There be will tend, and there stay. He viii

Lsople many times the Kindness and the
