What do Democratic Readjusters thinl
Of This?

In the Senate on last Saturday, Sena-
tor Wilcox, who was elected a. DEM
ocratic Readjuster, offered the following
resolution =
Resolved By the Senate, That the Is
sues now pending, both State and Ma
tional, demand that there be . public
declaration of party faith and we. the
Readjuster party Of theState Of Virginia,
hereby declare our intention by resOlu.
ton to vote with the National Republic
can party of the United States on all
party measures.
The Speaker decided that Mr.. Wilcox
was out of order. Are the Democratic
Readjusters going into the Republican
party? That is the question for Demo
cratic Readjusters to determine. Have
they been acting falsely? The MAORI
ty have not, and will spurn and repudi'
ate the idea.
The Washington correspondent Of the
Richmond Dispatch says:
"The Republicans here hail with
great delight Senator Wilcox's an
nouncement of his inversion to thu
Republican faith. They look upon II
as only the beginning of greater things
Said one of them to day, "Wilcox II
only the first bird Of the early spring
we shall have the whole Readjustel
flock by the fall elections"
The flock" will be small, unless VI
are greatly deceived in the honesty o
the great mass of the Democratic Read
justers.

redress. MiIr0y refused her request
with oratory about stamping out dis
loyalty" &c, unless she and her father
(her BROTHERS were in the c. s. Al
would take the oath Of allegiance to the
U. 3. The young lady fatty refused
the alternative and ended the Interview
with the emphatic declaration that II

worse than Guiteau's, because 1t was

How 1T WAS D0NE.-The Wytheville
Enterprise, In noting the fact that DR..
III. g. Crockett, of that place, had been
appointed assistant physician to the
Western Lunatic Asylum, says: The
salary of this office has heretofore been
81, 200 per annum. which, when so
learned to be by DR.. Crockett, caused
that gentleman to decline to accept the
position rendered him. The salary was
then increased to 81. 500. (by what power
the Lord only knows1;we do not, when
the Doctor accepted the "posish."
The Enterprise is entirely mistaken
as to its facts. The salary Of the physi.
clan CDR. Fishery whom DIR. Crockett
succeeded was 81 500 Before the cleo
ton took place, q friend of DR.. Crockett
informed him that the salary was
81. 200. Acting upon that information,
DR.. G. addressed letter to the Board
declining to be a candidate for the posi-
ton. Two days before his letter was
received the Board elected him to sue
coed DR.. Fisher at the same salary, viz :,
81 500, When informed Of his friends
error, and the action of the Board, DR..
c. promptly telegraphed his acceptance.
