A CLERICAL TRAMP.-Re, John l.
Carroll, the Baptist pastor at Lexington,
writes to the Religious Herald the fol-
lowing warning against a ''clerical' tramp
who was recently IN Staunton:
I write to warn the Baptist public
against a clerical tramp named Nezero,
the lecturer. We have had two visits nom
him lately. He came to my DIR about
two weeks ago, just after dark l took
him in and gave him supper. lodging and
breakfast. He professed to be :. Congre-
gatlonal minister. engaged in d livering
lectures on the eloquence of the bible. He
on the subject of baptism, and was going
to join the. Baptists when he reached Ma
con, Ga, to which place he had been in
vited to go by the Pr sident of
Mercer University, to deliver his lectures.
He was Very anxious to lecture il.re. until
ABOUT breakfast time, when he suddenly
concluded that lie would prefer 10 60 over
to StauntOn. He ret urned last Saturday
and became quite drunk, and II tempted
to lecture some cadets and students in the
court yard. AS he becam.- somewhat dis
orderly, the Chief of police led h IN out of
town and started him on his way. But he
got down at house not far fl IN town,
and spent the night in a state of intOxica-
tion. To the chief Of police he protested
to be Baptist minister. There can be
no doubt as to his drunkenness as the
Official have named examined :. bottle in
his pocket and found it full of whiskey.
He is evidently fraud, and unworthy Of
the consideration and support which he
seeks at the hands of Christian public.

On Tuesday last, on the first ballot, by a
combination of Readjusters with white
and colored Republicans, Gen. VIM. Ma
hone was elected to the Senate. Senator
Withers received the vote Of the Conser-
vaties and Gen. Wickham, (Rep.) received
but two Republican votes in the House
and three in the Senate. To the direct
question whether Gen. Malone would if
elected act with the Republicans or DEM
ocrats in the U. S. Senate his friends on
the floor maintained unbroken silence. AS
it will be year, however, before he en-
tiers that body he will have plenty of time
to make up his mind on the subject
though we must confess the idea of the
General appearing in any other role than
that of Democrat when he arrives at the
national capital is little absurd. We
take it there is very little doubt that at
Washington he will be Democrat; in
Virgini he will be a Malone man until
he and his friends can capture the Demo-
cratic party in the State. At his election
Tuesday some light was thrown on the
purposes of the last campaign. Senator
Riddleberger in nominating him said that
it was for position for which the people
had endorsed him on the 4th of November
and in the House Mr.. Norton (colored)
made statement somewhat similar.
Those who ventu1ed to assert that view
during the canvass were literally de-
nounced for their pains. We trust Messrs.
Riddleberger and Norton will not meet
the same fate. for their own frankness.
1t is commentary on the uncertainty
of politics that while Parson Massey, the
old original Jacob Townsend of Readjust-
ment, is quietly packed away in the base
