AUGUST "a, 1881.
Yesterday was our first court since the
Richmond Convention. We did not have
any regular speaking, but only little pub
lie talk but enough 10 show lhe interest
manifested and the true drift OF public
opinion. IL was in the aflernoon, and ali
the white people on the ground were con-
yened ia front Of the hotel, and after con.
versati0nal discussion Of an hour or more
a division was called-ihe Daniel men TO
stand on one band aud the Cameron men on
the 0ther--and the division showed but two
Cameron men In the whole crowd, and one
81 them from an adjoining county. II pub.

has undergone as great a revolution as it
hss in his, after November we will hear no
more OF Coalitionists in Virginia.
But, better stili, Immediately after this a
discussion took place among the negroes.
NJ. Nj. Ellis, naive OF the county and
Straightout Republican, addressed the
crowd. He made an admirable speech,
and It could be plainly seen that be had q
majority OF his colored friends with him.
They then called on a gentleman OF the
county whom they bad long known and
asked him to address them. lie did so in a
plain, practical way, with evident signs OF
sympathy and approval from three iourths
OF the negroes present. The effect was so
marked that our visiting ReSdjuster, with
bad TASTE, broke up the meeting with row.
The negroes present said they desired DR..
Holt to address them at future time in the
county.

Aside from politics the theme most dis
cIlssed lust now Is tue drought, which has
become a very serious question because OF
its pfolracted duration aud disastrous
effects. Unless sufficient rain falls very
soon the tobscco crop viii be cut short in
msny sections fully one half, and the corn
will not produce anything like an average
Weld. The dry weather is also telling Sc
verely on the cotton, and adyices from the
peanut section are very unfavorable.
The streams throughout the country
sre 90 low as 10 furnish but little power to
the mills, which are grinding but brief
space each day. The people are put TO
much Inconvenience in consequence, aud
but fer the relief furnished by the steam
mills would actually suffer. The effect CT
the drought Is visible 10 our own river,
which is lower than It has been In many
years. and operations in our mills are very
seriously curlaIled. There is quite large
stock OF both wheat and corn In the city,
but It csnnot be ground.
John Petliford, an old and worthy coored
citizen-one Of The most respected CT his
race in this city-d died this morning, in the
sixty-ninlh year OF his age.

The prospects are that successful organi-

Gus character than we have heretofore en-
ioyed.
Protracted meetings are now in progress
at numerous points IN the counties around
Petersburg, and many additions to the
churches have resulted. AZ Antioch church,
IN Lunenbufg county, DR.. Leo Rosser, the
distinguished Methodist revyaliSt, lately

A Leaf from the Record or John II.
Lewis-Can n ReadIustor Democrat
Vote for Him?
The Hon. A. NJ. Kelley, in bis able speech
st Petersburg said:
John f. Lewis was voted for and sent TO
The limited States Senate. Remember, he
was elected by your vote. While we knew
that he was Union man, we knew that be
was a Virginisn, and we hoped and believed
that the instincts OF justice were implanted
in hls breast: we hoped and believed that
he would stand up for the rights OF his
people and Withstand their enemies. | state
the fact that from The time John r. Lewis
entered the Senate be never cast but one
vote that was not against the interests OF
his people.
Dawes, OF Massachusetts,, introduced a
bill which provided that whenever negro
was shot, negro thief peppered, or dam
age OF any kind done to negro property, the
white people Of the South should be fined
until the whole loss should be made up, Till
the whole dimaee were paid by the south
ern people, whether Innocent or not. Tue
whole course OF English legislation against
Ireland may be searched for a parallel. Such
a piece Of proposed legislation was 1t that
Morrill,, OF Name, said that be could
not sit in his seat and see such blow
struck at the traditional liberties OF the
ADglo-Saxon people in this country.
So Infamous was 1t that Carl Schurz, who
has ever been a Republican, a man whose
life had been spentin despotism, denounced
it as trsmpling upon The rights OF Ameri-
cans. Yet John f. Lewis voted for the
bill, but when il was moved TO strike that
measure from the bill John f. Lewis voted
"NO." When Scburz moved TO strike ont
the measure making Us responsible for
every wrong done in the South, John f.
Lewis sgaln voted No."
