In this city alone Daniel received at least
1900 more white votes than did Cameron !;
and there Is not one single county in East
EN- Virginia in which the same was not the
case. A few counties west OF the Blue
Ridge gave white majorities for Cameron.
Dispatch Of 2Oth.
That first is very awkward sentence.
We did not read the proof Of it, or we
should have changed il so as to make 1t
read somewhat as follows:
In this city alone DANIEL received at least
1900 more white votes than did CAMERON (;
and there Is not one single county in East
ern Virginia In which a majority OF the
white vote was not cast for him. A few
counties west Of the Blue Ridge gave white
majorities FOR CAMERON, &C., &c.

Nobody need look any further than Mr..
MAssEY's collectors to find cause Of de-
feat, which was not a preyentable cause.
1t was simply Impossible for anybody to
know beforehand that on o. about election
day his so-caucd collector, would issue
voting certificates to ten thousand ne
eroes-these voting certificates being re-
ceipts for last years capitatiOn tax. There
can be no doubt, we suppose; that there
were OF these certificates a number issued
sufficient to cover all of Colonel CAMERON's
majority. Richmond gave three hundred
more Democratic votes than she gave last
year to HANCOCK and GEORGE ID. WISE;
and yet these certificates to negro voters
cut down her majority to seventeen iun-
bred.
Seek no further for the causes OF our de-
feat. Let us all pick our fints and try
again.

TIE Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad.
Mcssr.. FISK & IfATGI, Of New York,
have for years been the warm friends Of the
Chesapeake and Ohio railroad, and have
never neglected an opportunity 70 speak a
good word in It's behalf. We are not sure
hut they have a trucr conception OF the
value OF this road than have many OF our
own people. Trey have recently issued a
pamphlet stating amongst other things
that as a trunk line between the Atlantic
ocean and the West Il has been extended
ea,:wardy to Newport News and west
wardly to Lexington. Their circular ac-
campanyiug lhe pamphlet says:
1T is not generally understood that this
will be the shortest route T. the ,caho1Td
FOR ten millions OF people west OF the Allc-
ghanies: that il win also be the shortest
Inc TO Washington from Louisville, Mem
phis. st. Louis. and from the same region
10 New York that II j. the shortest route
% the seaboard from Chicago and Cincin-
natl, and that IT, ocean harbOr on Hampton
Roads is unriyailed 10y any barber on the
Atlantic coast"
These Claims are al well founded. we
think.

The Dispatch finds solace in the prophC-
cy it made on thc morning after Daniels
nomination when it said " We were afraid
to nominate him, because we thought his
record one the people might refuse to en-
dorSe. blue Ridge Echo.
We are very much surprised TO find the
above statement in the Echo. The Dis
patch has made no reference whatever TO
that prophecy" which indeed was never
intended as a prophecy, and has found no
"solace" either in that or anything else.
We are sure that nobody else could have
made more gallant fight than Mr.. DANIEL
did; and equally sure that the Echo cannot
possibly regret his defeat more than we do.

presenting any appearance of disease. The dress of the men consists of white cotton or calico shirts, heavy cotton trousers wide and reaching below the knee, buff leather leg gings and moccasins of buckskin a stripped Mexican blanket, and either a common soft hat or colored handkerchief for head cov- ering, complete the outfit.
 The women wear a long shirt of calico or white cotton reaching to the knees, over this @ shroud or petticoat from the waist to the knees, and from the knee to the ankle their calves are covered by wrapping which is made of buckskin, called by them gramoosa It is wrapped round and round very carefully until the limb is of the same size from knee to foot and of quite round dimensions the size of mems trousers of the present day. This wrapping terminates in an neat moccasin, and is evidently designed to be the principal female charm, in presenting the appearance of small and neat pedal extremity. Very little paint is used by either of the sexes and but few ornaments of any description. ~
 The government of each town consists of Cacique, who is chief officer of church and State, priest of Montezuma and director of the temporal affairs of the town. The Cacique, aided by the three principals selected by cers The governor is appointed for one year, and is the executive officer of the town. Moth ing can be done without the order of the governor. The office is purely honorary, but the honor does not cease with the term of office, as he then becomes principal man, and he may again become governor by reap peintment The ex- governors compose "a counsel of wise men and are the constitution al advisers of the governor" The aeucil (sherif) attends to the police duties under orders of the governor. The fiscal(mayor) attends to the religious cermonies. A cap tain de la guerra (war captain), with his cap tains and leutenants, has no duties to per- form except in case of war. They are tim i'd, modest, industrious people, who desire peace with all mankind above allthings prim- itive in their habits, relying almost entire ly on their own resources. They have never cost the governor any considerable amount, and withsreasonable protection, with educa- tion and time, may become useful citizens They have gardens, vineyards and fields sufi- cient to supply their wants They have herds of cattle, sheep, horfes and burros to supply all their needs. In cultivating the ground the crooked wooded stick has given way to the steel blow, and after two hundred years (since the yoke of the tyrant was laid upon their necks) the era of progress seems again to dawn upon them.
