XiroiPtin News,

Mr.. Jefferson W. Phelps, a very worthy
citizen OF Campbell county, died suddenly
at his residence, near Mount Athos, on
Sunday last, OF congestive chill.
Mrs. Charles NJ. Blackboard. of Lynch
burg, while alighting from her carriage on
her return home from church Sunday
morning missed the step Of the vehicle
and fell with great violence against the
wheel, resulting in painful fracture OF the
arm near the Joint and ugly bruises about
the shoulder.
Captain J. II. Riyes and Hon. j. Ran
dolph Tucker met in joint discussion at
Amherst Courthouse on Monday, Tucker
opening the debate in strong speech of
one hour, and Riyes following with his
prepared production on the tariff. As a
matter of course. Tucker put his opponent
to rout on every point and carried the
crowd. Indeed, there are few Rcadjusters
in Amhert, and the approaching election
will demonstrate that there are fewer than
ever before. - LpaCbJurg NelcS.

Definition Of a BOurbOn.

"a northern exchange is authority for
the statement that Hon. A. III. Stephens's
definition OF a Bourbon is an idiot who
seriously believes that Confederate money
will, II the Democratic party gets into
power, become as good as gold, and that
the time Is not far off when he will be
allowed to wallop niger as in the glori-
Gus ante-bellum days. II that definition is
true 1t Is needless to say that there are no
Bourbons In the South nowadays. They
are all confined to the North. "-Sarannah

Sergeant MasOn's Case.

The Washington Star says: Mr.. Bigelow,
as counsel for Sergeant John a. Mason,
now confined in the Albany penitentiary
for shooting at Guiteau's cell window, at
the Jail, in this city, last September, has
prepared petition for hdbedS corpus, adj
dressed to Judge Alfred c. Coke. United
States District Judge for the Northern
district of New York. This petit
ton sets forth at length the court
martial proceedings and subsequent
orders by virtue OF which Mason is
confined IN the penitentary, claims that
the order Of the Secretary OF War in order
ing soldiers to guard the jail is null and
void, as the Jail is in custody of the civil
authorities of the District; that the offence
charged involved merely breach of the
civil peace, and in no way affected the dis
clpline OF the army; that the offence. If
committed at all, was not committed in the
discharge Of military duty, nor was it conf
mitted at any military camp, post, or garri-
son, nor against the person Of q soldier Of
the United States army that the crime
charged is not triaEle by court-martial; that
the Observation-Disclosures Of the United
States army recently reviewed the evil
dence before the court-martial and rendered
an opinion reversing the findings and sem
tence Of the court-martial on the grounds
first, that the court-martial had no juris-
diction because the offence charged was
merely breach of the civil peace, and that
the employment OF Battery b, Second
United States artillery. to guard the Jail
was prohibited by the act of Congress Of
June Is, 1878; and second, that the record
OF the testimony clearly establishes his
lMason's) innocence. The petition MAIN
tains that under the law the decision of the
Judge Acknowledgement is finalIn all such
cases, and therefore the further detention
OF Mason is unlawful and wrongful. The
Judge is asked that the writ issue against
the warden OF the Albany penitentiary.

Mr.. WARNER being the editor of books

The StraiphtOutS.

The Petersburg lnder-Appedl makes the
following striking remarks:
"The only way for the Republican party
to preserve itself as q party, and TO pre-
vent George c. GOrham, Chester \. Ar
thur, Roscoe Conkling, and William Ma
hone from becoming its masters upon terms
which suit themselves, is to resist now The
claim that those gentlemen make. The
only safety OF real Republicans in the
southern States is in speaking for Republic
cans, voting for Republicans-in short,
in being Republicans. Their importance
TO the party is now conceded, and what
ever the Administration may do the party
will see that they are recognized"
That is good advice. The BLAINE Re-
Dublicans of Virginia, called the " Straight
OUTS" are to be the beneficiaries of the wise
policy outlined by the appeal. The spec
tacle OF q national convention consisting
largely Of peterborough delegates killing
off the one man whom the Republican dis
tricts preferred, has been presented to the
eyes of the northern Republicans more
than once. 1t is a spectacle which is not
at all calculated to please them. Especially
must 1t annoy them to see delegates APP
pointed by the Administration sitting IN
the national assemblies Of the party, and
welding an influence which ought to be
exercised only by delegates representing
the voters themselves.
This interesting question ought to be
settled once for all in the next Republican
National Convention. The Convention of
1880 smashed the machine so far as the
delegates sent by the bosses by means Of
packed State conventions were concerned.
LOGAN, CoNKLING, and CAMERON, were de
feated on that question. In 1884 the ques-
tion must come up in another shape-that
is, as to whether delegates selected by
Government officials shall be admitted, 10
the exclusion OF delegates selected by
the Republican voterss The BLAINE
delegates from Virginia may present the
question as one involving the fate of the
real Republicans Of this State, and demand
that delegates selected by MALONE, and the
oihcals holding their places ut his will,
shall not be allowed to occupy seats belong
Ing TO the real representatives OF the Re-
publlcan voters Of Virginia. II BLAINE
shah prove to be as strong in 1894 as he was
In 1880, his friends may induce the Conyen.
lion 10 decide again in favor OF the people
ana against the oflice-holders.

The Senate bill allows this sum to be
paid in the State bonds, to be hereafter is
sued under the Riddleberger law, at par.
Now, to get $4,000 OF these Riddlcber-
gers would take in peelers, funding them
al 90 per cent, as the law provides, $685.
400. But peelers can now be bought at say
30 cents. Therefore SGSS, 405 face value OF
peelers would cost only $40, 941.95. 1t
follows then, conclusively, that the Senate
bill authorizes the Danville railroad to pay
ITS debts to the State at half price, or about
fifty cents in the dollar. Aclear gift to the
railroad, in round numbers, OF tlcO hun
dred and forty thousand dollars.
But the company itself claimed to have
made upwards Of $780, 900. Mr.. Riddle
berger disputes this, though the company
states lt-not land he offsets against II the
tax which the railroad is now bound To
pay. That tax for l4S miles, the length OF
the road, on the scale Of taxation OF other
roads will be, for their roadbed, $3.50
per annum; for their ''property," &c.
Sl,625 more. But they deny, AS / hear.
the right OF the State TO tax more than
their roadbed by
THE TERMS OF THIS EXEMPTION.
III TINS be conceded, then il will take
say thirty years to repay the $500, 900, in
annual sums OF $3.50, or in any event
twenty-five years in annual sums Of SlO,-
800, which, at the annual rate OF calculating
such things, which includes the loss OF
interest involved, Is not very good bar
