ANOTHER NEEDLE SToRY.-A few
weeks ago q young lady Of Salisbury,
Md, was getting into carriage and a
sewing needle was by some means forced
into her thigh, but being considered a
trifing matter. little or no attention was
paid to, iJ at the time. Several days af-
ter this occurrence, however, her ankle
panied her very much, and on examina
ton it was found that the needle was
the cause of it. In her efforts to get it
out it broke, and she only succeeded in
getting one part (the eye half) of it out
The point remained, and two days after
she felt it that just below sthe knee, but
was still unable to get it out. Two
weeks then elapsed, and she felt some
thing in her throat, but the obstruction
was supposed to be a fish bone, After
several efforts 10 remove It she at last
succeeded, and it proved to be the point
part of the needle. Thus, in a few
weeks time, a. common sewing needle
enters person at the thigh, makes its
way down to the ankle. then retraces its
steps and goes up the body, and comes
out at the throat. This may appear to
be an incredible story. but it is true new
ertheless. 1t is vouched for by gen.
tieman of unquestioned veracity.

Of Capt. John S. Wise the Richmond

"a OsPSs SoAA NJ w AoO UAO 4sACAAAoA u
Commonwealth says:-
Before Mr.. Wise made his Staunton
speech we were not aware of the fact
that he was q '"Readjuster. We have
no recollection of ourselves hearing him
define his position in regard to Read
justment. but we have heard many of
his friends declare for him ever since
the business of "Readjustment" set in,
that he was no "Readjuster," but "a
six per cent. Malone man." We have
heard this stated very many times by
persons who pretended to be his friends
Whether or not he ever defined his po-
sition in these or similar words we do
not know. We recollect, also, that dur
ing the canvass last fall the Executive
Committee of the Conservative party
appointed HIM a canvasser for this dis
trict, announcing the appointment in
the newspapers, and we were told the
morning that the announcement was
made that Mr.. Wise had come into the
rooms of the committe and had demand
ed the recall of his name as canvasser,
saying that while he was in favor of the
McCulloch bill, yet, as his brother was
prominent in his opposition to it, he did
not think it becoming in him to be pub
licly upholding it. We were told that
these were his declarations by those who
were present in the committees rooms
when Mr.. Wise came in, amongst whom
we recall Mr.. J. Bell Bigger, the secre-
tary of the committee. We had sup.
posed, therefore, that while Mr.. Wise
was a warm personal friend of Gen,
Malone, he was an enemy to "Read-
justment." It may be, however, that
he was its enemy heretofore. but has
now changed his opinions. If this be
SO we shall never be the one to deny his
right to do so, or criticise his action in
doing it.
There are one or two points in Mr..
Wise's letter of explanation that we feel
called upon to notice. He says that af-
met here onsthe 18th of July, if. after de-
liberation, it should resolve to support
the nominee of the Chicago Conven-
ton, he will support him. Supporting
the Gominee of the Republican Conven-
ton at Chicago, means supporting the
principles of the Republican party upon
which that nominee will run. The
cardinal principle of Republican faith
now, is the doctrine lately laid down
by the Supreme Court of the United
States, that the Federal Government is
supreme over the people /; that the Con-
gress Of the United States has power to
pass any laws that it may think giving
to every citizen "the equal protection
of the laws" Gala for that the Con-
gress of the United States may provide
that If white man gets into quarrel
with negro at DanviIle. and strikes
the negro over the head with stick,
he may be dragged to Richmond and
tried by Judge Bond, away from friends
and neighbors, for an assault with in
tent to kill, and sent for it to the peni-
supporlin az the Repubican '1 nominee ss
means. We ask Mr.. Wise how many
of the white people of this district.
whether Regulators or Debt Payers,
he expects to get to vote for him for
Congress after making this declaration
to them ?"

IN SPECTATOR AND GENERAL ADVERTISERS

It is useless to attempt to argue with
the followers of the readjusters upon
the inexplicable, the silly, or the wicked
course they are pursuing with reference
to third electoral ticket in this State
at the next presidential election; for
men who are so obtuse as not to see
what is going on before their eyes would
not believe though an angel were to
reason with them. With the leaders
themselves, however, it is different.
They have an object to achieve, and the
manner in which they are working
shows that they are not deficient at least
In that mental quality called sharpness.
But like many other people possessed OF
that quality they are so Intent upon
gaining their end that they fail to real
iZe all the necessary effects of success.
To them success in their Independent
presidential electoral scheme will be
infinitely worse chan defeat. We don t
believe that the vote of Virginia will
decide the next presidential election,
but if it should, and if the national de-
mocracy be defeated at that election be.
cause of the loss of the vote OF Virginia,
which would be the result of the success
of the readjusters, it lie needless to say
that the latter end of the men who had
produced that result would be worse
than the first. AS they rode along the
highways or walked along the streets
they would be pointed at as traitors not
only to their party, but to their State
and section, yea, and country, for the
next presidential contest will be for
sectional or national supremacy. Then,
too, they will have no fitting recon-
pense for the unnatural part they will
have performed, for the federal patron
age in the State is small, and even of
that little but small modicum would
be gwen by party whose cardinal
principle is the binding obligation of
pecuniary contracts, to men whose fun
damental doctrine is practical repudia-
ton. 1t is rumored that Gen. Malone,
who is the inspiring genius of his party,
is beginning to experience realizing
senseIo the legitimate end to which his
present course will carry him, and that
he has determined to change it. For
many reasons, among them for his own
sake, we hope the report is true, and
also that the readjuster chiefs may be
enabled to see whittier they are drifting,
and to steer clear Of the maelstrom to
which they are now on direct and
rapid vay,-AlerdndraG Gazette.

INCEND1AR1Es AT WoRK.-A fire
supposed t9 be the work 9fan incendiary
or ihcendiaries, on Monday night OF last
week, destroyed the wagon shed and
corn crib of Mr.. Jacob Meyers, near
Cherry Grove, and with it o four-horse
wagon. two new sleighs, plows. harness.
new wheat drill and about 800 feet OF
lumber. The fire occurred at night, the
family were not awakened, and when
they arose in this morning, the ruin was
complete, IT was miracle that the fire
was not communicated to the. barn, Q
short distance off, and had the wind
been blowing in that direction there
would have been no saving of it. The
fire was certainly the work of an incen=
diary, but what incentive could have
induced its preparation can not be
fathomed, as Mr.. Meyers Is one Of the
most peaceable of citizens and was not
supposed to have had an enemy.-Spirit

CAPT. JOHN s. WIsE.-Capt. John
s. Wise alleges that the report the Spec
TAToR published of his speech here was
incorrect, and published d communica-
ton in the Richmond Wing, filling a
column and a half of that paper, in ex-
PLANTATION of two extracts from that re-
port ofabout half dozen lines. Those
vino heard the speech will endorse the
correctness of our report, and, we think,
that those who did not, will, upon read
ing Wise's report in the Wing, con-
clude that the report in the SPECTATOR
was about correct. 1t was not, it would
seem, so much the incerrectness of the
SPECTATORS report which called forth
his long communication in the Wing,
as his desire to publish such of his
views in the Richmond Congressional
district as he thinks would advance his
prospects for election to Congress, for
which, in his postscript, he announces
himself a candidate, and awaited him.
self of the report of the SPECTATOR as
the pretext. That report was not the
cause, but supplied the occasion for his
publication. This it was and nothing
more.
P. s. Since the above was written, we
received the Lynchburg Neavs, which
contained the following
The Lynchburg News having ex~
tended the circulation of the false posi-
ton given to Mr.. John S. Wise, by the
Staunton SPECTATOR, will do it justice
to that gentleman by spreading his let
ter before its readers ?-Richnao7ad
Wing.
No, the News will do nothing of the
sort. It published just five lines of the
SPECTATORS report and besides, after
reading the long letter of Mr.. Wise, we
fail to perceive wherein he has been
misrepresented. His own published
statement differs from the newspapers
report only in the use of the word ''at'a-
pledged" for ''indepe'adeaet. "-Lynch-
burg Ne,0s. Ri,
Not only those who heard the speech,
but even those who have only read
Capt. Wise's letter, like the Lynchbarg
Nea0s, will ''fail to perceive wherein he
has been misrepresented ?"
Wise's letter, like woman's, con-
tanned the most important announce
ment in the postscript, in which he an
nounced himself candidate for Con-
gress. That may account for his sud-
denly becoming readjuster, expecting
to be elected by some readjust tiers and a
great many negroes.
