EiIisnnsa PafoIlfs.

In the lastweekly issueOf patents Edison,
the phenomenal inventor. had been granted
twenty-five. OF these twenty relate to
devices connected with his electric system
OF light, making, according to the records
Of the Patent OGice, sixty now issued to
him relating to that system. Edison has
taken out more patents from the Patent
Office than any single inventor. Including
the twenty-five issued yesterday, he has in
all been granted two hundred and nine pa
tents on all subjects, including OF course
the electric light, and tbe records show he
has over one hundred additional awaiting
the decision Of the Commissioner Of Pa
tents, majority OF which will no doubt be
allowed. - Washington Republican.

CARROLL COUNTY.

UuIsyILLE. VA, October IL, 1881.
Editors Dispatch: According TO appoint
ment Colonel w. +. Sims, OF Pittsylyania
county, addressed the citizens OF this coun-
ty here to-day. PaIson Massey was adyer-
tised 10 meet Colonel Sims, but the WHY
Parson, recollecting doubtless the treat
ment he had received at previous Discus
sions, had no idea OF meeting his antagonist
in the banner Democratic county OF the
Southwest. But he sent as his representa-
tive Pat. Mccall, clerk OF the House OF
Delegates, who asked for division OF
time. This OF course was granted. Pats
speech was made up Of the usual clap-trap
arguments OF Reddiustcr speakers, which,
like the house built upon the sand, soon
fell 70 pieces beneath the sound and logical
arguments Of Colonel Sims. The Colonel
IS a fine speaker, and more than q match for
Pat. McCaul, as the discussion fully domon-
strated.
Notwithstanding the fact that the full Re-
adjuster force was present there was no
applause for Pat, and he left Carroll fully
satisfied that this would indeed be the ban
ner Daniel county in the State. y.

Mr.. BococE Is making an active canvass
In Appomattox, we learn; and we agree
with the Lynchburg VirJinian that he is
just the man the people Of that county
ought TO elect To represent them in the Le-
gislature. Itwould be discreditable TO the
voters TO fail TO support such man--one
OF national reputation. We have at Demo-
cratic National Conventions been much
gratified at the calls made upon him by
distinguished gentlemen from all parts OF
the Union. His ability is conceded by
everybody. His experience can't be de-
MED. He ought to be in Congross-in one
or the other branch. But il be Is willing
to serve the people in the humble capacity
OF a delegate TO the Virginia Legislature,
they ought 10 avail themselves Of his
services, and esteem their county fortunate
Iii being able thus to command the respect
OF her sitter counties.

Gentlemen, "A largc crowd turned out

In nable and eloquent speech stated the

much so that Cameron, on the inside, had

imnossible to describe the effect oil MAJOR

TIE PROSPECT IN PITTsYLyANIA.-We

from different parts of the county Of Pitt
sylyana as 10 the political outlook. With
the exception Of one or two neighborhoods
the reports were that nearly every white

that our party leaders have to do is to get
