UNANIMoUs.-We see it stated by a
Petersburg Correspondent that every
member of the Presbyterian Synod OF
Virginia which met in that city last
week was in favor of the election OF
Daniel.
This speaks trumpet-tongued In favor
of that honorable body of clerical and
Law gentlemen. They represent the
true sentiment of the vast majority OF
the best citizens of this State. Not to
elect DaniL would,be. not only misfor-
tune, but shame and disgrace, for
which, however, the majority OF the
best people would not be responsible.

The Malone Ticket Republican Ticket.

Let no one who will vote for the Ma
hone ticket any longer claim that he is
opposed to the Republican party. Ac-
tions speak louder than words, and a
vote for the Malone ticket is vote fol-
the Republican party. This is now SO
plain that no intelligent and well-in-
formed voter can fail to see 1.-THE
wayfaring man, though fool, cannot
err therein"
Any Democrat, If he be truly Demo-
crat, who will vote for the Malone tick
ct, will live to regret it in ''sackcloth
and ashes" It will be too late to repair
the injury after his vote is cast, and his
repentance. however sincere, and his
regret, however poignant, will be futile.
His plain duty is, to vote for the Demo-
cratic ticket, and then he will have no
cause to reproach himself. however, the
election may result. We implore every
man, who is opposed to the Republican
party, whatever may be his views of the
debt question, to work earnestly and to
vote for the Democratic ticket.

The Time to Vote has Arrived.

On'this day the voters are called upon
to decide the fate of this State for veal
or woe. In the language of the Lynch
burq Advance they, are 10 decide
whether they will give the State into
the hands of corrupt, inscriptions po-
liticians, or whether it shall be control
ed, and its laws administered by men
who advocate honest principles. If you
vote for John w. Daniel you will sup
port man pledged to an honest and
creditable settlement of the State debt /;
who has declared that he will be gov
ernor to all men alike, no matter what
may have been their past conditions or
party affiliations a man pledged to sup
port the free schools and most ar
dent friend of that system of public
education.
Vote for Cameron, and if he is elect
ed, Malone will be, in effect, the next
Governor of Virginia-a power behind
the throne greater than the throne.
Cameron endorses the Riddleberger bill
as settlement of the State debt. This
bill is the first step towards tyranical
legislation aud will prove bill of abo-
limitations and a curse to the State.
Cameron is also pledged to the repeal
of the capitation tax as prerequisite to
voting which will deprive the schools
of a considerable means of support. He
is also in favor of the adjustment OF
the whipping-post. This will fill our
jails with petty thieves at a cost OF
thousands of dollars to the State annu-
ally. This money comes out of the
pockets of the honest and industrious.
The Mahoneite candidate has also de-
clared that he endorsed every act OF
Malone in the United States Senate.
Democrats, remember that Malone
voted with the Republicans one hun
dread and fory-four times, and his
every act since the commencement OF
his Senatorial career has been for the
advancement of the Republican party.
He has around him the worst men OF
both parties, aud is waging war upon
honesty in Virginia, no matter whether
found in the Democratic or Republican
ranks. He has been guilty of political
piracy, the like of which had never
been known in this State. Cameron
has also declared that he would lead
Africa against men of his own color,
aud his party has, since the opening OF
the present campaign, been arraying
class against class, and race against
race, in a manner which would be dis
graceful to Kerneyism or Nihilism.
All this they have done for the sake OF
office. Compare the records of the two
candidates, Democrats, and say which
your state honor demands that you
should support.
Staunton spectator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1849-1896, 1881-11-08

The first Republican platform, thai
of 1856, declared that it was the purpose
of that organization to restore the &C
ton Of the Federal Government to the
principle of Washington and Jefferson. y
After the party got into power, says The
Louisville Courier-Journal. they repu'
dated the principles of both these men
and trampled on them with derision.
They adopted the principles of Judas
who carried the bag and was thief.
Staunton spectator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1849-1896, 1881-11-08

AS the success of the Malone party
and itsmeasures will tend to destroy the
public schools, and thereby increase the
prosperity of the private institutions Of
learning. those who own the latter and
have not allowed selfish consideration
of personal interest to influence them,
but hold fast to the faith, and have not
gone after false gods are entitled to the
highest commendation.
