In noticing the meeting at Front ROYAL
last Monday, the editor Of the Lynchburg
idrdnce who was there and made one of
the finest speeches heard for years saws:
Hon. Mr.. Barbour gave q frank, open
ana specific account Of all he had said and
done IN Congress and what no proposed to
DO. His candid, calm, practical style cap
uvated his. sturdy audience and he was
greeted with applause from first to last
Judge lhos. Smith, of Fauquicr, was next in
troduced, and tormor than an hour held the
audience delighted by his manner and Ian
gage and Interested in the logical manner
IN when Ire disposed of the pretentions of
MahohelSm. Judge Smith is an orator per-
maps too polished for the stump speaker. but
TO any intelligent audience clear, forcible
ana interesting. 1t was late in the evening
when the crowd dispersed. and notice was
given for \ meeting of the Democratic club
and speaking at night. By halfpast seven
The Courthouse was again full, and the
President, Mr.. Downing, introduced Cap
X. L. Scott, of Fauquicr, and as the first
notes of his loud, clear voice fell on the as
semhly. many present were struck by the
resemblance to the splendid voice of his dis
tlnguishcd father His speech was fine
and effective argument in defence of the
present democratic policy. and was received
with rounds applause. Major cambridge
OF Winchester, followed Captain Scott in a
powerful speech, repletc with the scvercst
inrectivc and sarcasm. He depicted the
Mahonc party, its corrupt leaders, its bar
gain and intrigue with radicalsm, until his
voice was drowned by the applause of the
audience. The audience was now thorough
~ excited, and the president introduced Mr.
NJ Mccormick, of Clarke comparatively
Young lawyer and politician. Though small
in person he has n tremendous voice, clear
and metallic. 1t cut like a sabre into the
subtertuges of Mahoneism, and brought
down the house at every period. This Was
said to be great day for Warren, and an
increased majority for Barbour and Massey,
was confidently claimed. There are but few
colored voters In Warren, and they are di.
vlded. The great body of the people arc
democratic, and not many have been led as
tray by the corrupting proffers of Arthur
and Malone. Warren is filled with men
true to the State in the worst hours of the
war, and but few have deserted their race
and people since

All efforts to discover the Whereabouts of
James A. Watkins, the Malone member of
the House of Delegates who was indicted
by the grand jury of the Hastings Court of
Richmond for selling place as guard of
the penitentiary, have failed. 1t is sup
posed that'Watkins, being warned of the
indictment against him, left the State. Gov.
Cameron's course in failing to take action
in Watkins case, and those Of other officials
OF his party who were accused of similar
neglect, has been the cause of unfriendly
criticism. If Watkins is found in the State
he will certainly be brought to trial. If he
IS out of the State, as the offence with which
he is charged is only a misdemcanor under
the statutes, it is doubtful whether he can
be brought back

CORRESPONDENT ofthe Richmond Dis
patch i'll his account of the speech, made by
Gen. Mahone's colored speaker Langs,on, in
williamsburg says the speaker stated that
Malone, in n conference with leading Re-
puhlicans at Philadelphia, had said he did
not stop at readjustment of Virgina's debt
but intended to annihilate every legal OBJ
struction to perfect equality in the South;
and that Malone would be compelled to
overturn the remaining legal barriers there
to in Virginia. These barriers are, be-
lievc, the laws against intermarriage, mixed
schools, &c. Malone had brought much to
pass, and more would come pass. 1t would
seem from this that Mr.. Langston, like Gen.
Malone, is in favor ofthc obliteration of
all race distinctions

also, and at the same time proposed to
abolish the whole internal revenue system,
with its spies and detectives, and TO reduce
the taxes on the necessarics of life. Mr..
Massey was, and is, Il democrat, and APP
