TICKET.-The Alexandria Gazette says
One Of the most intelligent men Il
the Valley Of Virginia; IN writing
from Stanton 10 frierd IN this city
says:
Everything looks favorable for the
democratic party in the State. A num-
Der Of the delegates from this part Of
the country came back from Malone
convention d0nounciug the Mahon-
lies and saying they would not sup
port the ticket. Lewis kills it 10 the
Valley"
Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1881-06-15

IF the Mahoneites thought they were
getting the entire Republican vote when
they got Jno. F. Lewis, they will find
themselves mistaken. He may carry
a few votes but not enough to save that
party from a most disastrous defea.c
and rout.
Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1881-06-15

JNo. F. LEWIS was anxious to bury
the Democratic party so deep that the
hand OF the resurrection would never
reach it. He did not succeed. II he
entertains the same sentiments towards
the Malone party, his chances of sue
cess are now very fattering.

Governor Cornell and Senator elect
Plat, of New York, arrived at PLANES
Vile on the Saturday afternoon train,
and were conveyed to Mentor, where
they spent the Sabbath with General
Garfield. OF course, neither gentleman
would give an intimation as 70 his pur
pose, but that the visit is full Of signi-
ticance in regard to the relations OF Sen
ator ConklinG to the next sdministra'
ton and the formation Of q Cabinet,
goes without saying. That General
Garfield and the Senator'S of New York
expect 10 work together for the good of
the Republican party, seems to be the
universal opinion of those best able to
Judge of the political future.
On the way here, the train bearing

capped being wrecked seven miles east

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-The political
carioaturists with universal consent Sc
lset the ass as the emblem of Democra-
oy. The proprlsty Of the device is put
beyond question by the course Of the
party in regard to the Morgan. Bicknell
Joint rule. Devised, as all the world
knows, In the Democratic caucus, for
use in case the result OF the Presiden'
tial election should be indeeisive and
indsfsnsibls upon any ground other
than political expedienoy, it lost all II
ever possessed Of value for its inven.
tors when the sweeping verdict OF No

ted that the Democrat party in Congress
in spite Of its we'll earned reputation fol-
unnecessary blundering would leave
the measure to it's merited oblivion.
But il didn't. 1t brought it up, strng-

Now the Democrats propose 10 try 1t
again. Diligent inquiry among both
Democrats and Republicans as to the
possible misoh OF which the former hope
TO accomplish, develops no information,
and the conclusion is reached by all i'm
partial oulooksrs that the motive for
Democratic psrsistsnoy Is 81 nply their
instructive aversion to following the
ooHrse Of procedure which animals OF

: I ann Hotter than Thou

Modern day sanctifcation was signi'
fcantly illustrated in one Of our city
churches recently where an extensive
revival of religion was In progress. A
market woman who is known by all
who attend the street market as de.
vout, honest woman, and little DEM
onstrstive when happy, entered the
meeting when the altar was crowded
with mourners and religious feeling
was running at high tide. Seeing q
vacant space in seat near the front
she appropriated it and Joined heartily
in the singing. Beside her was seated
an aged maiden lady who had often
moved the class and prayer meetings
with her thrilling experience of chris
tian perfection and the high degree Of
sanctifcation to which she had attain
ed. Bat the thought Of that market
woman with her labor. hardened hands,
calico dress and faded shawl, was too
mach for the sanctifed saint. Her
hands were raised in astOnishment,
her nose assumed an attitude of forty
five degrees, and the eye-balls rolled
wildly around as she looked for some
escape from her disagreeable dilemma,
Finally young lady in the front pew
was induced to take seat between the
poor woman and the sanctifed one, and
there her troubles ended. That revival
meeting will fail of doing all the good
that should be done until this high
toned professor of christian perfection
is brought to understand that true
christian perfection consists in humili-
ty, in love, in being kind, in charity,
in forgiveness, in earnest work for the
Master, who said, Inasmuoh as ye did
it to one Of the least of these, my breth-
rem, ye did 1t unto me-"
