We see by the Vicksburg Herald, OF
the 10th inst, that young man by
the name. Of NJ. p. Hudson who was
formerly employed by the Western
Union Telegraph Company, in this
city, has succeeded in getting himself
into very serious scrape. A too free
use of other peoples money, was the
cause. His defalcation amounts to
about $1,000, and the Singer Machine
Company are the sufferers. When
Hudson was a resident of this city he
had the reputation of being an honest
and capable young man but he went
to Vicksburg, and the communicating
influences Of that city were too much
for him. He fell, and great was the
fall.

JNO. L. RAWLS.

Error to the Circuit Court of Chckasaw
county, Hon. j. A. Green, Judge.
Mask sued Rawls in the Circuit Court for
having maliciously prosecuted him before
Justice of the Peace on Il charge of grand
larceny. Plaintiff offered in evidence the
affidavit made by Rawls before the Justice,
and also the writ issued thereupOn for the
arrest Of Mask; both of which, under OBJ
lection of defendant, was excluded by the
Court, upon the ground that they were not
legal in form, and did not describe the of
Tense charged with technical accuracy.
Verdict and judgment being rendered
for defendant, the plaintiff prosecuted a
writ of error.
Lacy &c Baskin and w. F. Tucker, for
plaintiff in error.
Buchanan & Houston for defendant in
error.
CAMPBELL, J,
Hth'-
The exclusion of the affidavit, which was
the commencement of the prosecution COM
planned Of as malicious, was erroneous.
The gravamen of the action is the malicious
prosecution of the plaintiff, upon false
and unfounded charge, whereby damage
was done to the plaintiff. 1t matters not
that the Affidavit does not contain a charge
of felony or other crime. 1t served as the
basis of warrant for the arrest Of the
party charged; and the sting of malice and
falsehOOd is just as hurtful when inflicted
through the medium Of an affidavit legally

The Situation I'm virginia &.

The X, adjus,ers' party OF Vrginia met in
convention at Richmond yesterday and earn
e>tlv endorsed the Democratic national tick
et, but nominated full and distinct set OF
presidential electors 10 be voted for next
November.
This means in effect that the regular DEM
Ocrats OF the state Will vote for one Han
cock electoral ticket, the ReadjustcrS Tor an
other Hancock electoral ticket, and the Re-
publicanS for one Garfield electoral ticket,
leaving the latter to carry the State and Gar
field 10 secure its electoral vote.
There i large Democratic majority in
Virginia. but il cannot be divided and re-
main a majority.
III The two contendiDg factions Of the
Demoeracy-the Conservatives and the Re
aGiuSters-insiSt upon running separate
Hancock tickets. Garfield will carry the
State. and eleven electoral votes VIII be
subtracted from the Democratic and added
to the Republican score.
Speaking for the Democracy OF the na-
ton, we protest against this suicidal course.
We demand that some sort OF ac0mpromlse
be made by hich the majority in Virgins,
to which the party is entitled. shall be made
available. A remedy for this threatened
evil must be found. and at once.
Here we have 100000 Democrats in a
great State-a large majority enthusiastic
callv favoring the election OF the prcsiden-
tal nominee Of their party. aud yet dellb-
erately resolving to pass the electoral vote
OF that State over to his opponent.

Malone vs.. the Wing.

The Wing of yesterday says:
"The ReSdiusters OF Virginia are as hon
est as the Funders are, and the work OF read
justment is duty TO the people which they
have promised 10 perform. 1t is work
which we honestly believe is called for by
all the equities OF our case. no less than by
the actual necessities OF our situation; and
there is MOI an honest Funder in the land
who will doubt this in the light of develop
ments for the last eight months"
We let General MALONE answer. We let
him say whether "the necessities Of our
situation" demand of us actual reputation
OF bali Of the cOnsOl BONDS due by the
State Of Virginia. On the Goth Of Febru-
airy, 1879, General MALONE addressed the
Mozart-H Hall Convention, and gave his views
upon the State debt. We give the following
extract from his speech, taken from the
Richmond Wing of February %, 1879:
Impoverished and disheartened az are
our people; Onerous and oppressive az is
the present rate OF taxation; opposed as l
have been, aud still am, 10 an increase there
OF, and certain as | am that such increase,
to some extent, must be necessary after
1880, vet TO secure the great object OF a
settlement OF this question, and TO avoid
that direSt Of oil cdtdmitieS to the State, q
reputation of its obligations, unless
some settlement can be arrived at upon
terms at least possible, though difficult
OF endurance, | WOULD EARNESTLY ADVISE
THIS PEOPLE TO ACCEPT A PERMANENT SET
TLEMENT AT 3 PER CENT, believing that they
could, IL called upon, see that the quiet and
TepOSe gained thereby nOuid cOuRterbqiGnCe
the hdrdShipS Of an increase ,chich theV are
so little able 10 bear. l WOULD USE NY BEST
ENDEATORS TO SECURE VOTE OF THE
PEOPLE sANCTIONING A SETTLEMENT AT
3 PER CENT. FOR FORTY-FIvE YEARS,
on THE BASIS OF 1872 ,977, 090.02. And this
settlement being ratified | would enforce 1t
by the Legislature and courts, whose pow
ers | believe 10 be fully adequate thereto.
4 could do so because 4 Jbtere IL 10 De
right; because | believe II is the only way
10 avoid consequences we would all regret
deeply; because | believe il is TO the best
interests OF the bondholders and the tax
PAYERS, and because 1 believe it is duty
we owe 10 the Commonwealth OF Virginia"

Let the People Speak Out.

The example set by the Democratic Re-
adiusters in Woodstock, Mr.. RIDDLEBER-

no true Nirginian ought to do. Read;
