How my heart leaped with JOY when 1
fonnd myself at last looking lntentiy upon
the commanding person, the norlo anu eA-
nressive face, OF Willism Z. fTeston' INTO
bis penetrating and glistening eyes, ana
listening to the strains OF vafieu eloquence
that flowed from his lips. JOY rose 10 en-
tbusiasm, and that gioweu INTO ecstasy.

nm from the ground, shouting as wildly as
was everybody else who could either see or
boar him. I did not know that German
fellov.cifizen. about as much enhanced as
T was. had stretched his head over my shout
der. irving to catch the failing words OF
This inspired orator. As | leaped upwards
my shoulder struck him under the chin,
and must have given him very severe
blow. But he knew it was unintenional,
and wbea ! begged his pardon he granted
it. but said, "Next time wish you would
look before YOU Jumps"
Mr.. Preston's conversation was relatively
rs eloquent as his orationS. 1t was racy,
lively, varied, and his tones OF voice ana
EXPIRE. sions OF eye and face. and his action,
varied with and according to the thoughts
he was expressing. He could probably
have made one OF the greatest pantomlmlc
actors the world has ever seen. a whole
evening spent in listening to him mt his own
house, in Columbia, when he was president
OF South Carolina College, was one OF the
greatest privileges Of my life.
What gave Mr.. Preston's eloquence its
superiority over that OF other men who are
Justly regarded as orators were lis hlgher
afilatus, its spontaneity, lis rich funess and
vet cOntiuuousness so well sustained lie
also abounded in wit, pleasantly, and sar-
casm; and no matter what vein he was plIr-
suing, he adapted himself to it, and acted
out all that be wished to convey in mar
ner the best calculated to heighten 1t and
give il force and effect.

burg will now revive the visit and speech
OF Mr.. Preston there about 1892.

We saw we do not thtuk that the Rekd
iusters can agree upon any practicable
scheme for Jeadiustiug the public DEBT
There are too many and too wide diner
ences OF opinion on the subject among
them. We are inclined to think tbat tn'
head and frent OF the party-the man WIN
out whom it would be no party-wih MOI
be willing to go to Washington in the char
acter Of a repudator OF public obligations
and therefore will be slow 10 give his assent
10 any scheme for cutting down the debt to
twenty millions or anything less THAI what
all men know the State Justly owes. On the
other hand, Mr.. RJDDLEBERGER seems bent
upon putting forcibIe readiustment and
partial reputation into one bill ii
not, We nave ME h's P"0'''N"
However, il is useless to speculate JUST
now. We shall soon see what we shall see
but we repeat that we know OF no plan OF
readjustment that has not already been tried
and failed. The coupons are legal tender
for taxes: and the bondholders arc not
likely to surrender them for an uncer-
tainty.
The debt is mutiform. First, there are
the consol., or the bonds paying per cent,
and the coupons OF which are receivable for
taxes. Next, the peelers, or bonds of the
same sort, but the coupons OF which are not
receivable for taxes. Then the 10-4Gs, or
bond, issued under the MCCULLOCH bill.
And thea old bonds. We suppose
that it will be the policy Of the
Readju,ters TO try to get all these bonds
refunded under new law so as to have
but a single kind OF bonds out. Well, let
them go on. Time will soon tell how far
they have deceived themselves and the pub
lie. How they can ever have the face to
ask Virginia's creditors to agree to another
compromise, we cannot imagine. We shall
await the result patiently.

effect that their party. while differing from
the Democratic Debt-Payers on the McCul-
Loeb bin, can be counted on as certainly for
the Democratic candidate for the presi-

GRANT OR BLAINE.-Tbere was q meeting
tonight at Senator Don Cameron's house
which was attended by a number Of the
leading Republican politicians Of PennsyI-
vania. The object was to have Mr.. Came
ron agree upon some plan by which the
Pennsylvania delegation to the Chicago
Convention should act as a unit. Mr.. Came
ron wants the delegation TO go solid for
Grant. II has been discovered that The
Blame feeling is so strong that this is im-
possible. So the Conference tonight was
at The request OF the Blaine men, with the
object OF having Mr.. Cameron to agree TO
Blaine as a second choice with the delega-
ton should Grant be out OF the question.

From the Danyille POst.I
.RpacfiOli.:

The following paragraph Is from the last
Martinsyille Herdld. a Republican paper OF
ability and character; and what it saws OF
public sentiment in Henry and Patrick is
true all over the State. Retribui0D IS sure
TO follow great crime and faisehoOd:
REACTION.
From what we have seen and heard
there seems to have been great rejection in
public sentiment both in thi, county and in
Patrick since The late election. Curses not
loud but deep have been hcaped upon the
Legislature for its proSclptiye ana intole-
rant course. Instead OF attending TO the
legitimate business OF legislation they have
consumed nearly bali the constitutional
limit Of their session in turning out one
set OF men and putting in another, di-
vlding the spells among the parlsans.
III they were sincere in their promises
10 readiust the public debt, why have
they not made an effort to do so? But.
instead Of this, it seems that their time has
been occupied in adjusting and readiu,ting
the claims OF the members OF their own
party for office. 4 caucus makes one NOM
inatiOn tonight and recOnSiders it the next.
The election of Judge for a county is post
pOned in order that the Committee on
Character shall have time to inquire into
the antecedents OF some OF their nominees.
In the mean time no effort Is being made TO
relieve the people OF the great burden that
their presses and orators said was put upon
them by the Brokers' bill"
