Democratic Readjusters Cannot Vote the
Malone Ticket.

When Riddleberger in the Malone
Convention protested earnestly against
putting Lewis on the ticket, and stated
that he could not carry single county
west Of the Blue Ridge. as the Demo-
cratic readjusters would not vote for
him, he spoke his honest sentiments,
and showed that he thought that no
Democratic readjuster should vote for
the ticket with Lewis upon 1t. Would
it not be funny now to see Riddleberger
taking the stump and calling upon
Democratic readjusters to support that
ticket Some think that he will do so,
with the view of being elected to the u.
8. Senate by the next Legislature. 1t
Is supposed that Malone has promised
that office. to Riddleberger, Massey,
Lewis, and probably others, to make
them work for the success of the ticket.
This was the sop held out to Massey to
quiet him after Malone tricked him out
of the nomination for Governor to give
it to his personal friend-Cameron.
When these gentlemen will come before
the people on the hastings in support Of
the Malone ticket, the people will un.
derstand that they are looking to theil
own interest and not to that of the peo'
pie.
They will profess to be very patriotic
and disinterested, but the people, in
view of the facts, will be able to under
stand their true motive. Neither Mas
sey nor Riddleberger like the ticket and
would not support it ii they were moi
looking for Office. The masses are not
expecting to be elected to the United
States Senate, and they will consult
their own feelings and self-respect ani
party consistency, and will not vote fol
the hybrid ticket, and will do just al
Massey and Riddleberger would do i
they were not Influenced by the hope o
getting office; that is, they will spur
and spit upon the ticket which is an in
suit to their patriotism and self respect
Democratic readjusters will show tina
they are neither fools nor the servil'
slaves of Malone and his office seeking
leaders.

WORKING FOR THE U. s. SENATOR
sHIP.-Riddleberger in the Conven-
ton said.that Lewis was 30 Objectionable
to Democratic Readjusters that he would
not get 5000 votes West of the Blue
Ridge. You may expect, during the can
vass, to hear him singing the praises of
Lewis, and extalling him in terms of
highest enlogy on the rostrum.
Riddleberger has no idea of allowin g
Lewis or Massey to be elected U. s.
Senator in place of himselflf he can
prevent it, and during the canvass he
will do all he can to atone for the .faur
pas he committed in the Convention
when he opposed so vigorously the
nomination of Lewis, and when Massey
80 promptly availed himself of the OPP
portunity to make capitol for himself
and against Riddleberger for U. s. Sc
nator by advocating the claims of Lew
is. These gentlemen had better keep
an eye on Lewis for he is after the same
place, and if Malone is for him, he will
get 1t, if that party shall succeed in
electing their ticket.

Northern Republicans Approve the Ma
hone Ticket.

The Richmond Wing, the organ of
Malone, is filling its columns with ar
ticles from the leading Republican
Northern journals which cordially en-
dorse the Malone ticket. It is now in
order for Democratic readjusters to in
quire why it is that Northern Republic
cans so earnestly approve the policy OF
Malone. They do it because it is in
behalf of the interests of the Republican
party. He is recognized by them as the
protector and leader of the Republican
party of Virginia, for they know that
the Republican party in this State had
despaired of ever being successful, and
that the negroes had ceased to feel much
interest In elections, and had become
quiet and were devoting themselves to
labor, making useful citizens, until Ma
hone, after being disappointed in getting
the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor, in spirit of revenge, went to
work to destroy the Democratic party,
and revived the hopes of the Republic
cans by 1he division he succeeded in
making IN the The ranks of the Democratic
party by seizing upon t shAesi question OF
readjustment of the State debt, and
making readjusters believe that he was
sincere and that his object was to effect
REIMBURSEMENT, when, in fact, his real
object was to destroy the Democratic
party. and to effect the success of the
Republican party, hoping to be the can
didate of that party for Vice President
in the election of 1884, and for his own
selfish purposes he made dupes of DEM
ocrats who were readjusters, and now
expects to lead them into the camp Of
the Republican party where he has
taken up his abode. The following ex-
tract from the correspondent of the
Philadelphia Press (stalwart Republi-
CAM furnishes the key to the endorse
ment which Malone and his ticket re.
ceive from the Northern Republican
press:
I'm 1878 the Republican organization
was practically abandoned, tired out
with the quiet yet efectual defeat of its
efforts and the neglect and cowardice OF
its leaders. From that day until Gen.
Malone gave it protection and leader
ship it really took no interest and had
no voice in the administration of St8te
affairs.'

With cleayer and mallet,-so brave and blithe,

Fair and soft are her braided locks,
And the light in her blue eye merrily mocks
The shadow of want and fear;
AS deftly, with fingers supple ana strong,
She draws the glIttermg shave along,

Ere the day has reached its close.
Eight miles she trudged,-'twas weary way;
The road was rough, and the sky grew gray
With the snow that sifted down;
Bent were her shoulders beneath their load.
But high was her heart, for love was the goad
That urged her on to the town.
Ere the sun went down was her promise kept,
The little ones feasted before they slept;

The people of the Hatteras region are of an
amphibious nature and live so much on and
in the water, that most of them, am sure are
web-footed. They live mainly on fish, olams'
oysters, crabs, terrapins and wild fowls.
When they leave home they go in boat, and
whether they go to court or go courting or to
trade, or to mill, or to funeral, they always
go'by sail. Their corn mills are run by sails,
and some of them pump their water with
wind mills. They don't go up stairs, but "go
aloft;" and when they go to bed they "turn
in" when they are i'll they are 'under the

trim built sweet heart as 'clipper built" or If
she is little stout they say she is "broad at the
beam, or she is "wide across the transom"
Many of them have ships cabin doors in their
houses that slide on grooves, and to their
buildings they give coating of tar instead OF
painting them. The "old woman" blows
concb she'll when dinner is ready, and they
measure time by 'bells". Their babies are
not rocked in cradles, but swung in hammocks.
They chew black pig-tail tobacco, and drink a
wild tea called ''Yepon." They manure their
land with sea grass and bury their yam potatoes
they hang a red flag against hillside as sig

"the wind amt fair, they take a dram OF
whiskey and copperas, soak their Ieet In sea
