SEPTEMBER 81, 1880.
The canvass of George ID. Wise, Demo-
cratic nominee for Congress, was opened IN
this county yesterday at ShumansvilIe pre-
cnct. Three protracted meetings were IN
progress in the neighborhoOd, yet We had
tity-tive persons present-nearly one half
OF the Democratic vote OF this precinct.
Captain Wise and Major Robert o. Peatross
spoke forcibly and feelingly to the voters,
explaining the issues OF the canvass, and
pressed upon the voters their duty as DEM
Ocrats to support the only national Demo-
cratic ticket in the field.
am happy 10 say that not single voter
was present who will not support the regu-
lar ticket In November. So far as L could
learn there were three or four present OF
whom it was reported that they intended
TO vote for the assistant Republican ticket,
but upon personal inquiry OF them they
said 1t was false, and, though Readiuslers,
they knew nothing in this fight but the
regular Democracy.
Captain Wise speaks at Whites Mill to-
morrow (the 22d) and at Port Royal Friday.

Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatchl
CHATHAM, Va, September 20, 1880.
Pursuant to a call the Republicans Of this
county met here to-day (court-day). and
nominated delegates to the Congressional
Convention, which meets in Danyille To-
morrow, the DIST. The meeting was presided
over By Joe Davis (colored), OF this place,
while Mr.. james Wood, sergeant OF Dan
vile, acted as secretary. After prayer by
a cOlored brother the brass band, which was
brought over from Dsnyille for the coca
sion, struck up lively tune, and they tnen
proceeded to business. Squire Tallierro,
or " Mess o. Partridees," as be Is generally
called, was on band, and made big speech.
You have doubtless heard OF the speech he
made some years back, in which he said he
wasn't going TO sell out his birthri2ht, as
Esau did, for a "mess o. partridges." He
said he hoped every body woul take off Their
hats and treat the members OF the Conycn-
ton with some Seif-reSpect.
After good deal OF wrangliDg they final
" selected eight delegates to the DanvIlle
Convention, six Fl ON Danviie and TWO from

Senator Davis (colored), OF Mecklenhurg,
was introduced, and made speech primer
paly in favor of the social equality OF the
white man and the negro. He said many
things offensive TO the white men present.
Senator Brack Stoyal, OF Halifax, was
then called for, and made Il bitter speech
against the Democracy and in favor OF Rad
icalism. He said they accused Garfield OF
being rogue, but that he had rather see
rogue al the head OF an honest Government
than to see an honest man at The head OF the
dishonest Democracy.
Colonel Cabell will 90 out of Pittsylvanla

alone will be hard for Stovali to overcome.

er) is still in the field, but it is hoped he will
see his folly before the day OF election and
retire.
Neither OF Colonel Cabell's competitors
were here to-day, but he made a stirring
speech, in which he thoroughly ventilated
Colonel Stovall's senatorial record. and
from the enthusiasm which greeted him he
has lost none OF his great popularity in this
county.

the FOX and the As.
A FABLE FOR THE MALONE "ALL1ES.'
iEron the DeiYolf Hsaa I,rass

From the Detroit Free Press.l
One day Fox who had wandered afar
from hrs den found bis return cut OF by q
stream OF considerable depth and current.
He could not swim, and he cudgelled bis
br ain In vain for some method by which he
might get over. In this dilemma Donkey
suddenly appeared In search OF a drink.
"Oh. Donkey, / am delighted to meet
you 1" exclaimed the Fox as be came for
ward. II was just wishing for good com.
pany, for the forest Is SO very still and
night Is coming on"
1.-THE Donkeys and the Foxes have no
frsternal feeling. While you bark bray ;
while you Iope l galIop; while you love
flesh prefer grass. Go your way ana III

"It Is true we do not mate" quietly re-
piled the Fox, but that Is no sign DO
not appreciate your intelligence and beauty:
| could not help being born a Fox, but Oh !!
how often have wished that bad your
beautiful ears, your tbunderous bray, and
your elegant shape"
"Eh. what's tbat?" queried the delight
ed Donkey.
"see what beautiful long legs you bave?"
continued the Fox.
"DO you really think sO?"
"And such beautiful long ears III ]
only had your feet would be as proud as
peacock"
The fattered Donkey began to gambol
and show off, and the Fox continued:
"Across the stream and beyond the
swamp is my den. | should really like my
children to behold you and hear your voice.
They have heard me tell OF yon, and they
cry for you. One OF them is III, and / can
not let him die until he has seen the greatest
Ass in America"
A little more 1aitery and coaXing quite
won the heart OF the Donkey, and he agreed
to 90.
As he entered the stream the Fox leaped
tightly TO bis back and passed over without
wet foot. When they entered the swamp
he renewed his fattery, and was finally car
ried TO dry land.

as the Fox jumped down and started of.

"But thought you wanted me to bray

Fox. ~ have concluded to do my own

" But am far from home and cannot find
my way back"
"Then it is your misfortune that You
were not horn Fox. Let me give you
few words of advice. BE what nature de-
signed you to be. Never take a dollars
worth Of fatleiy in place OF a shillng's
worth OF pork. While you can bray, never
do so without realiziug that a bray always
gives away the location Of n Donkey. tt is
more easy to fatter than TO buy. A Dom

VISIT OF GENERAL JOE JOHNSTON TO GENERAL
HANCOCK-BIRTHDAY PARTY.
New York Herald, ye.terday.i
General Joseph +. Johnston. Of COnfede-
rate.army renown, and present member OF
Congress from Virginia, was the most prom
inent visitor calling yesterday on General
Hancock. This was his second visit, and
he speaks Of the campaign as having pro-
crossed in General HancOck's favor much
beyond his earlier anticIpatiOns. While,
in his view. everything indicates that
the South will give the Democratic nomi-
nees their solid vote, he feels more SaDguine
than ever OF an almost equal victory in the
leading States OF the North and West.
General Cadmus Wilcox, OF the same State,
feels equally confident of the same result.
Mr.. John b. HaSkin had a protracted inter-
view with General Hancock. His early al
legiance to the General when bis name was
first suggested for the presidency is mat
ter, he says, OF special pride to him now.
He thinks that tue success Of the Demo
crate party is so assured in November next
that it will be only " walk over for Gene

OF Staten Island, was among the other
prominent visitors.
General HancOckS residence was Iast

the occasion being party given in honor
OF the sixth birthday OF his granddaughter.
