Political situation In virginia.

The Chicago Inter. Oceans Washing
ton special Of the Sth says: Stilson
Hntchins has ceased to boast and be-
gun to plead. This morning in the
Post lie walls over Virginia as follows:
The Readjnsters' party ofVirginia met
ID Convention at Richmond yesterday
and earnestly indorscd the Democratic
ticket, but nominated full and dis
tinct set Of Presidential Electors to be
voted for next November. This means
in effect, that the regular Democrats
Of the State will vote for one Hancock
electoral ticket, and the Readjusters
for another Hancock electoral ticket,
The Republicans for one Garfield cleo
toral ticket--leaving the latter to
carry the State and Garfield to secure
its electoral vote. There is a large
Democratic majority in Virginia, but
it cannot be divided and remain a
majority. If the contending factions
of the Denocracy--the Conservatives
and the Readjusters insist upon run
ming separate Hancock tickets, Gar
field will carp the State and eleven
electoral votes. A remedy for this
threatened evil must be found at once.

denial, and as alike contradictory Of
the report that General Grant had
cherished personal animosity and pet
ty spite against General Hancock
since the Mexican war:

THE Chicago Inter Ocean special
says: Land Commissioners William
son is in trouble. An ingenious Cali
fornian has entered stone quarry
and gone to burning lime. Now he
demands his patent under the miner
al land Act. He has presented a
heavy document, full Of legal and sci
entiiic opinions, going to show that
limestone lands, granite lands, and, in
fact, almost any lands are mineral, and
can be entered under the terms of the
Act General Williamson does not
know but he will have to decide that
according TO the wording Of the law
there is nothing else but mineral lands
in the country.

The Indian TERRITORY Trouble.

Private dispatches from Arkansas
City, Kansas, say: Captain Payne,
who left the southern border Of Kan
sas on the 9th with some 800 men on
a second invasion of the Indian Terri
tory, has reached his destination with
out molcstation. 1t will be recollect-
ai that Captain Payne invaded Indian
Territory last spring in violation Of
the Presidents proclamation, and was
elected by the military. He now de-
fees the authority Of the Government,
and courts arrest and trial, to deter
mine in the courts whether his acts
were in violation Of any law. Parties
are here purchasing machinery Of diff
ferent kinds, goods, etc, for shipment
to Payne's colony, aud it is said an Of
fee will be opened here to induce emil

RAILROAD Tranic.

Thus far thirty-nine railroads have
reported their traffic for June, and the
account stands as follows: 1880,
$lT,s59,0l3; 1879, $4,000 ,656--an
increase Of SI94 .369 for the FIRST half
Of the year. Tbirty-thrce roads have
reported officially, aud the totals are
as follows 1850, $s2.044,7T6; 1879,
$65,0I7, 4s5--an increase Of $l6,967,-
29l. Included in the returns for six
months are the earnings Of few inn
portant roads like the New York Cen
trail, Northwestern, St. Paul, Illinois
Central, Central Pacific and Wabash,
bur otherwise the totals are made up
from tic statements Of comparatively
unimportant lines. The figures Of
Lake Shore. Erie, Michigan Central,
Canada Southern, Chicago. Buring-
ton and Quincy. Union Pacific, Penn.
sylvania and Baltimore and Ohio COM
panies are wanting. If the earnings
of these roads were at hand and adj
ded 10 the total Of the thirty.threc al
ready given, the traffic Of the FIRST half
year Of 1880 would appear marvellous
New York Central gains $780, 900 for
June and 1856, 900 for nine months;
Lake Shore gains $430,000 for June;
Chesapeake and 0hio's earnings in
creased $4,000 for the first six
months Of the year; Chicago and Al
ton gains Si,2is,0O0 for the same Pc
