The Dispatch need not fear that the Re-
adiusters will be Geaf TO reason. The Dis
patch knows as well what REIMBURSEMENT is
as we know what Funderi>m is. But al
ready the Dispatch is abandoning the orig
inal basis and scope Of what 1t aud It's cor
respondents have proposed. and is exhibit
ing every disposition and intention TO take
advantage Of the ReSdi us'ers.- Wing.
Not a bit OF 1t. We don't want to take
any advantage OF you. Aren't You in favor
OF readiustment? Aren't you willing for
us TO aid you in that good work? Won't
you allow us to offer an amendment to the
RIDDLEBERGER bill striking out the repudi-
alton feature OF that notable scbemei We
still adhere to "the original basis and
scope" Of what we and our correspond
ents have proposed; and we intend to
" stick" Here's your genuine Readiuster!

Editorially, the Cincinnati Commercial
states the question az TO the power OF the
Ohio Legislature to elect United States
senator before March 4th, as follows:
"There is no vacancy, and will be none
in the Ohio delegation OF the Senate Till the
4th OF March. when Senator Thurman's
term expires. IL the resignation OF Gar
| field created a vacancy, the duty OF the
Legislature would be very plain. But the
resignation, IL sent in before the 4tb OF
March, makes no vacancy in the Obio repre-
| sentatiop. General Garfield would not re-
sign an actual but prospective seat. The
term for which he Is elected does not begin
| till March 4th. II Is prospective seat, and
the resignation will create prospective va
cancy. Now, the question is whether the
Legislature has power to proceed to fill a
prospective vacancy. No doubt, II 1t waits
til after the 4h OF March, when a vacancy
will exist, occasioned by the expiration OF
TburmaD's term, and Garield's resignation
Of the office. he would then be entitled to
take as senator Il the United States, Ii can
elect successor. There is no question
about that. The election will not deyOlve
upon the next Legislature. The only ques-
ton is whether the next Legislature will
not have 10 wait till after the Alb OF March
to proceed 10 an election"
And, let us add, this i, no question. The
Legislature cannot elect before there is
vacancy.

We Asve expressed desire TO take the dis
turbiug question OF the public debt out OF
poHtics; bot not OF the expense OF the good
name OF Virginia. There is difference
between readjuslment and Reputation IN
the minds even OF those Funders who are
NEST anxious to reSdiust the public debt.
They know the generous and liberal spirit
which has hitherto been manifested by the
creditors Of the State, and, coudding in the
sincerity OF the desire expressed by those
creditors TO make such terms as can be borne
by, and will therefore be acceptable TO, the
voters Of the State, the Funders have set
about the task OF retiniting the real Re-
adjusters and the so.calied Funders in the
support OF a scheme which shall be acceptable
10 both debtors and creditors. We are not
specially authorized to speak for anybody
else; but we do not deem 1t all probable
that we shall go further In the way OF over
lures TO the Readiuster element OF The reg
ular Democratic party than the body OF the
Debt.Payers would agree to go II assem-
bled in Convention for the purpose OF de-
iiberatiug upon the subject. We have no

+. A. BURR. who recently wrote up Gen
eral MALONE and his party for the Philadel
phia Press, and who made such disastrous
failure in his efforts to convince the RepuD'
lcans OF Virginia that they were weaker
than the ReSdjusters. seems to have desert
ed the General aud gone over TO BAYARD.
At any rate, be has allowed MIR. BAYARD
to talk as follows through him and the
Press concerning "small men" and "free
lances":
BURR: "About the organization Of the
next Senator"
Mr.. BAYARD: "That is one OF the un-
pleasant results OF the campaign. The di-
vision OF parties is so narrow that il gives
small men a chance for barter. and offers a
temptation for such political manGuvres as
| have no taste for. 1t would have been
better il the majority on one side or the
other bad been marked enough to prevent
any political legerdeman in The organlza-
ton by either party or by free lances."

| How honest convert TO reSdiustment
the Dispatch Is can be easily conceived
when we still see 1t calling the Riddleberger
bill a measure "to repUdiate twelve millions
OF the debt" supported only by the 10000
who voted against Funderism on the I'd IN
| stant.- Wing.
That's Just what we have always thought
it was. and what we have always called it,
General MALONE not only declared in his
Mozart-Hall speech 10 favor of paying the
entire thirty.twO or thrtytbree millions OF
dollars due by the State, but expressed his
willingness TO increase the taxes to that end.
Now, was General MALONE right or wrong?
Will you and he stand by that scheme and
let RIDDLEBERGER's reputation rigmarole
90 DOWN.
Tell us how you expect to get rid Of more
than one-third OF the debt without repudia-
ting it? We cali the RIDDLEBERGER bill a
Reputation measure only because it rcpu-
dates. That would seem to be good rea-

The Abingdon Yirginian claims that be-
cause TRIGG received the largest msiorties
in those counties OF bis district which polled
the largest Republican vote, therefore be
received more Republican votes than Fell.
KERsoN! OF course, then, II all the Repub-
licans bad voted for GOODELL, TRIGG would
have been elected by tremendous MAORI
ty! That's what the yi,yinian'S argument
leads to. But the reader will be apt to de.
eide for himself that those counties which
spol:ed tue largest Republican vote did not
cast so many Republican votes for the Re-
sd1uster candidate. and therefore TRGG's
msiorities over the ReAdjuster were larger.
The Virginian's logic is that Of the mother
who knew that her boys never drank any at
night because they were always so thirsty

9. LET ne have peace. - Richmond Dispatch.
Our Richmond contemporary Is right.
| There are Readjusters and Mahoneites. The
| former are I'm earnest In their desire. for an
honorable readjustment OF the State debt
| a settlement that will be alike honorable TO
the State and satisfactory to her creditors,
and that will not bring an increase OF taxes.
| or such Il nav be said, the "woods are
full OF 'em.'' But they are free and inde-
pendent Readjusters. They have no Boss
they wear no mans collar. And they are
Democratic Readiusters. They never 1aii
to respond to the tocsin OF the old Con-
sentative Democratic party. They court
no alliance with Radicals. and when CO.
aition with that party Is sought Tor the
mere purpose OF securing Spots, they
would rather be excused. As TO the
Mahoneites they were distinct party. We
say were. for the jig is about danced with
them. No party ever existed in virginia
that was, previous to the late election, so
boastfuI and so arrogant. They would
listen to no proposition made by the true
Hancock men for compromise by which
the Conservative vote could be concentrated
on one national ticket. No, indeed. 1t was
total surrender OF the Funders or nothing.
| Take down your ticket; we are the strong
party-we are going TO sweep tbings-we
are the people-majoritie must rule,
&c. They claimed a majority in almost
every county in the State-they were going
| to carry all OF the congressional districts,
the Ninth by from 900 to 5000, and their
July ticket was going TO sweep the state by
| 80, 900 majority. Not a vote less. The re-
suit has proved that they carried but few
counties. aud those by small maioritles.
With Radical assistance they have elected
Fulkerson and Paul, and contributed to the
defeat Of Hon. John GoOde, supplanting
him with the Radical DeZeDdorf. Did any
party ever meet with more complete rout
than it did? The Wing says it was caused
by stampede OF the Readiusters from their
ranks on the eve Of election. III 30, all honor
to the stampeders. They doubtless had
good reason 10 stampede. and will not be
very likely to stampede back again. 1t may
call on them in vain TO stick to the Boss.
They now realize that they have already
stuck too long, and they will be apt to
stick 10 the Conservative party hereafter,
with the full assurance that they will find
within that organization all the readiust-
ment they need ever expect to get. They
are ready TO eXclalm with the Salem Regis
ter and the Richmond Dispatch, "Let us
