GEN. MAHoNE's cry in the Sen
ate is fora free vote aud fair bal
lot. To the people in this section.
it is a surprise. For a fair ballet,
we think, no county in the United
States can show a better record
than Shenandoah. Every man,
from the humblest negro to the
weallhiest capitalist can at every
election deposit his vote as to him
seems best. Judges and com;
missioners Of election have at all
times counted the votes fairly and
honestly. In Virginia the count is
as fair as in any state in the Union.
Gen. Mahone's cry for fair count
is a reflection upon the people,
whom he processes to represent.
Another fayorite expression is "a
priceless suffrage in plain English,
g demand that every man shall
vote whether he has paid any tax
or not. The doctrine that man
who does not pay so much as one
dollar for the support Of his State
and even when that dollar is de
voted to the education OF his own
children, should moi vote is very
dlstasiefal to this party who ad-
yocate what they are pleased to
call "a free ballot and fair count.
If the man who resides in state.
enjoys the protection of its laws,
and its courts, elucates his chill
dren at public expense, and then
refuses to pay one dollar capitatiOn
tax, is entitled to vote, why may
not men VINO live in other states,
pay nothing to the support of our
state government, but enjoy none
gifts protection, step in and claim
the right to say how much tax we
must pay? The one is about as con-
sistent as the other.
Another peculiar feature about
this affair is that Mr.. Dawes OF
Massachusetts, is in accord with
Mr.. Malone in his effort to change
this feature of Virginia law, but has
never yet found fault with the con-
stitution # his own State which
excludes from the polls men who
cannot read the constitution IN
the English language and can.
not write their names. In his
State the voter must have paid the
tax assessed against him within
two years last past, and he must
neither lie a pauper nor belong to a
class of dissolute characters known
as "spendthiifts." If the repub-
licans were honest in sustaining
this crusade Of Mahone's against
the constitution Of Virginia. why
do thay nor extend thur efforts to
other states when the same restric-
tions are imposed?
TO remove an Objectionable
feature in the Virginia constitution,
Gen. Malone is allied with men
who sustain the same features in
the contributions of other states.-
These restrictions are not confined
to Virginia and Massachusetts, but
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Con-
neciicut and probably other
states have the same features
in their constitutions. The tact
that the effort to remove it is only
made in Virginia is evidence that
it is but q hollow mOckery, and a
cry for political eject.

shame and Death.

There seems to be well authenticated
facts thai a shameful crime has been
committed. 1t seems that some time
a.r, a Young lady came to the North
Ward Of PhpniXville, Chester county,
anu rented Il small building. No one
seemed 10 know anything about the
Young lady. except that a gentleman
visited her from Wilmington, and paid
her IS 4 week for her support, On
Monday night last, she died in continc-
mrnt, the child being still born. Her
funeral took place on Wednesday, a
gentleman named Kalcr making all the
arrangements. The rest of the story is
from the Morning News Of this morn
ing All that was known Of the de-
ceased in PhGniXrillc, was that she WAS
known ~ Caroline SanguiSt, and that
Sha came from Wilmington.
On Tu ,Sday following her death John
MrCalr, wcll-known citizen, CANE 10
this rit,. From letters found among
the effects of the deceased, the idrn-
titv OF tn" girls brtraycr was tui!y rs-
tahliSh"d
Ne wa1 approached by MIR. M"Calr,
who told him Of the glrl' death, and
asked him what disposition hr would
make oi the body. The man expressed
surprise aud denied all owlrdgc Of
the dcre4Acd and refused to have any
Thing tH do with the ease, Tn" funeral
It the giri was attended by a couple of
Young ladies' unknown TO the people
in PhWuixVillc.
The man in this city who diS"wnrd
thr girl has wife and six children.
Mr. McCale returned to PhuniAIiIlr
and reported the result Of his visit. and
il is understood that the people there
will make things exceedingly warm for
The Wilmingtonian before mentioned if
they get the opportunity.
