1.-The name of Hon. J. F. Lewis has
been suggested for the position of Lieu
tenant Governor on the ticket with Col.
Cameron. We have no thought that
Mr.. Lewis will allow any such use
of his name. He is Republican
and has sagacity enough to see that it
will be very ill-advised policy for the
Republicans to have anything 10 do with
the formation of Democratic ticket
whether Readjuster or Funder. The
aim will be to capture Republican votes,
and it is with that view that Mr.. Lewis
has been mentioned in the connection
stated. The Republicans will have q
policy of their own, to be determined by
q convention ofthe party, and until such
action is taken, it would be very unwise
to propose or countenance any compli-
cations"
The above is from the Valley Virgias-
ian Of last Thursday, the very day on
which the Malone convention assem-
bled in Richmond. 1t will be observed
that the course of Hon J. F. Lewis is
just what the Virgini0n had ITO
thought" it would be, and such as, in
the opinion ofthe Nir9inian, argues that
he has not ''sagaoity enough to see that
it would be very ill-advised policy for
the Republicans to have anything to do
with the formation Of . Democratic
ticket whether Readjuster or Funder.n
It will be interesting to see what the
Vsrgini0a will now do about it. Repub-
licans cannot with any consistency sup
port ticket with Cameron and Blair
upon it, and the Democratic Readjus-
tiers cannot consistently support ticket
with Hon. ]. F. Lewis upon 1.-THE
chairman of the Republican State
Committee. As we predicted, Malone
has gotten the ticket he desired, in con-
travention of the will of Democratic
Readjusters. and has SO exposed his pol
icy that any Democratic Readjuster can
zee that he is working in the interests
OF himself first and of the Republican
party second, and that he expects to- use
Democratic Readjusters and RepAbli-
cans to subserve his purposes. HE mol
ICY is an insult to every hons-s Demo
crat'e Readioster. We sr.pect that Lew.
is. like Conkling. bas found his political
s'"Se Aeq~s' ,cat in pace.

.IPsE OF THE MOoN.-The June
loon falls on the 18th, aud gives us the
rare treat of a total lunar eclipse. No
celestial phenomena is easier to UNDER
stand. The earth passes between the
sun and moon and obscures his light
1t can only occur at the time of full
moon, and there would be total eclipse
of the moon every month If the SUMS
path and the moons path were on the
same plane or level. But the moons
orbit is inclined to the ecliptic about
five degrees, therefore the moon must
be at her node or crossing point at the
time of full moon in order to be totally
eelipsed. She is. however, much oftener
far enough from her node to be above
or below the earth's shadow when thers
is no eclipse, or she may be near enough
to her node to pass through a portion of
the earth's shadow when she is partial
ly eelipsed. But on the morning of the
18th the conditions are favorable for a
grand exhibition of the darkening pow
er of the earth's shadow. The moon is
full, she is at her node, she is in perlgee,
or at her nearest point to the earth. and
she will pass centrally through the
earth's shadow. The eclipse begins
that is, the dark shadow enters upon the
moon-at 26 minutes after midnight
The total phase commences at hour %
minutes, and ends at hours 81 min
uses. The eclipse ends at 8 hours 50
minutes. On the 21st the moon is in
conjunction with Mars and Saturn. On
the morning of the 22nd the heavens
will present superb picture, made up
of the waning moon, the bright plan
cts Venus and Jupiter. Between s
o'clock on the morning of the 31st and

MALONE MAKES THE TICKET.-We
stated some time since that it would be
a useless trouble and expense for the
Mahoneites to hold State Convention,
as Malone could nominate the ticket as
we'll without conventio as with it,
and the result has shown that there was
no need of convention. as Malone
dictated the nominations defeated
Massey, whom majority of the party
preferred, and put Republican on the
ticket against the will of white Read
iusters.

The ticket is not the ticket of the read

at his residence in Atchlson, Kansas.-
He was born at Palestine, Greenbrier
county, w. Va, just across the Green.
brier river from Anderson, Monroe coun-
ty, w. Va, on the 5th of May, 1872, and
was, consequently, in the 10th year of
his age at the time of his death. He
graduated at the University of Ohio in
1882. The day after he graduated he
married Miss Lucy B. Myles, of Athens,
Ohio, who only lived few months af-
ter his marriage. While pastor of Grace
Street Baptist Church. in Richmond,
Va, he married Miss Eliza Floyd,
daughter of Capt. John Coleman, of
Amherst county. Va, by whom he had
eight children-seven cons and one
daughter, Major Joseph Coleman AL
,derson, of Wheeling, being the eldest.
After the death of his father in 1845,
Mr.. Anderson moved to Greenbrier
county and took charge of the old home.
stead at Palestine. He preached for
many years at the Greenbrier Baptist
church located on his farm, and at the
same time took deep interest in man
aging and improving the estate left him
by his father. He was chiefly instru-
mental in organizing the Greenbrier
Agricultural Society in 1858, and was
its president to 1858, when he removed
to Atchison. Kansas. He built the first
church in Atchison City, and the first
large church in the territory of Kansas,

ton until the first year of the war. He
established seven or eight other

he was compelled to leave home on &C.,
count of the intense feeling there
against every one who had emigrated to
that country from the South. He went
to New York city and remained there
until near the close of the war.
We knew him well when he lived in
Greenbrier county. and know that he
was man of worth and merit.

JOHN Browns WIDOW.-A cores
pendent of the Philadelphia Times who
recently visited the widow of the famous
John Brown says that her home Is
situated in the foothills of the Santa
Cruz mountains, in Santa Clara county,
CAL, near the village of Saratoga, and
ten miles west of the city of San JOSE
With her live her two daughters, Mrs.
James Fablinger husband of the elder
daughter) and three bright little girls,
granddaughter of Mrs Brown. The
correspondent says: "She came to this
State sixteen years ago with her family.
For six years she resided at Red Bluffs.
then removed to Humboldt county, liv-
ing there in obscurity and comparative
poverty for ten years. Last February
the single daughter jOurneyed to Santa
Clara county and selected and purchas-
ed this quiet mountain home as the fu-
ture residence of the family, assuming
the responsibility of paying 81 $50 for it
A small amount was paid on 1t, $500 OF
the price falls due in August, leaving
81 900 still unpaid after that. In this
condition the Brown family was discov
cred, as above stated, and, without the
consent of the family, aid solicited for
their relief. The people of California
responded to this call and at once plac
ed the widow of him whose soul Is
marching on and those of her immedi-
ate household beyond want"

The Fail Election.
WHAT WILL THE REPUBLICANS DO :?

In long editorial of the valley
VsroinSun of last week, after maintains
ing, with the view of keeping up
the hopes of the defeated Mahoneites,
that the election of the 26th of May did
not furnish test of party strength, that
journal says:
"In the November election the issue
will be different, the circumstances IN
fluencing voting will be different, ana
party relations different. The lines will
be drawn all around, and each faction
or party will march to its own music.
There will be q different arrangement
of forces, different aspirations, and re-
ally different ends in view. The Re-
publicans, especially, will be heard
from more frequently and distinctly,
and in every respect the direction OF
parties dissimilar to that which marked
| the recent county elections. The Re
publicans do not propose to skulk IN
| the rear of either of the Democratic fac
tions, or play the boot black and spit
toon cleaner to Readjusters or Funders
They will assert their equal dignity and
claims to public consideration with the
Democratic factions, let them arrange
themselves as they may, and show to
the world that they are not the scurvy
camp followers and political hucksters
they are represented to be. We will
let both of the Democratic factions un-
derstand that the Republican strength
in Virginia must be respected, If not
feared, and that Republican principles
and Republican history will be laid be-
fore the people for their consideration"
Whether, in the expressive language
of the Valley Nrginian, the Republic
cans will "play the boot-black and spit
toon- cleaner to the Readjusters' or not,
time will determine. The Democrats,
or Funders as the Virginid'a chooses to
designate them. neither ask nor expect
the Republicans to perform such mean
ial service for them. Whether, in the lam
guage of the VirgSnidn, they will "show
to the world that they (the Republicans
are not the scurvy eamp-followers and
political hucksters they are represented
to be-" time will show. We suspect the
Wrgimian will change its tune before
the election. ssitsis
