1.-THE Greenbackers will nominate an
independent candidate for Congress.
There will De no fusion with either the
Republicans or Democrats. If either of
the other parties want fusion they
must fuse with us; We will not fuse
with them"
Who will be the nominee of the
Greenbackers?
THAT depends. However, it is very
certain to be DIR. Barbee. He is more
popular with the Democrats than any
other man the Democrats can nominate
themselves. He will take large slice
of the Democratic vote of the District
without any fusion. We propose to put
him up, not as q mere target, but to run
him for everything there is IN him."
Who will the Republicans nomi-

wished 10 warn the Republicans that their
life and vitality and future success and
greatness depended upon adhesion to the
first and great principles OF Republicanism.
BALLOTING.
s The first ballot resulted: Round, 1873 /;
Mayo, 24t; Mcdonald, 15i. Changes rap
idly took place until Mayo received 43
votes, and was declared the nominee.
"UTTERMosT CONTEMPT"
W. III. Lewis got the floor, and declared
that the Republicans had been "treated
with the uttermost contempt" He said he
came to the Convention i'm behalf OF Re-
pubicans and Readjusters jointly, and was
in favor Of free ballot and fair count. He
declared he saw the worst split now that
he had ever seen between Democrats and
Republicans. lie had been treated I'M
fairly, and ne was not willing to stand It.
While he was speaking the colored bro
Tiers cheered, and cried out, "Talk to
Prince William Uewis's county,, talk to
'em"; "You can't elect Mayo" and other
similar expressions.
Lewis denounced the whole ballot as a
fraud, and for the first time during the day
a riotous scene Of confusion ensued, and
great warmth Of feeling was exhibited by
the Republicans, both black and white.
Lewis denounced the transaction as an
outrage, and refused to answer the queS-
ton whether or not he would support
Colonel Mayo.
A committee was appointed to wait on
Colonel Mayo and inform him Of his nOmi-
nation. He appeared and made a speech
TO the body. in which, to Judge from the
way he blew his own horn, he was anxious
TO advertise the fact that his trumpter was
dead. His speech fell flatter than the most
ordinary one delivered on such exciting
occasiOns-so fiat. in fact, that large num-
Der OF the Convention and audience left
the courthouse. At the conclusion OF the
rambling talk three cheers were called for
for Mayo, and were given so feebly that
they must have grated cursedly on the ear
Of the nominee.
After some other work the Convention
adjourned.
1t was quiet and very orderly Conyen-
tion, and indicated that it bad been cooked
TO order.
One thing is certain-Coloncl Mayo will
have road TO travel.

tract tomorrow at noon. Have selected a
spot suitable for city hall, and think it VIII

DEATH or 4 VENERABLE LADY.-Anotbcr
link which binds the Virginia OF the past
to the Virginia OF to-day has been broken;
another representative Of her ancient glory
has been taken away. In this city on yes
tcrday the q" last sad token OF respect " was
paid 10 one whose death leaves a void in
many hearts. We allude to the burial Of
Mrs.. Susanna Morris, widow OF the late
DR.. William Morris, OF GOochland Mrs.
Morris was a daughter OF Governor Pleas
ants and sister Of John IIampden and Hugh
Rose PlCasants, both formerly well known
not only in this city but all over the State.
Their brilliant talents as writers for
the press brought them prominence
wherever their articles were read. But
it was not alone her distinguish
ed ancestry that made her noticeable,
Her amable and l0vable disposition, her
attractive manner, her entire un>clfishncsS.
and her constant desire to promote the
comfort and welfare of others, shOne out
in all her life, and cndcarcd her to those
who came in contact with her. But she
has gone, leaving behind her IN example
worthy TO be followed by all who esteem
the favor and affection OF the good. The
body was brought on yesterday to the city
on the 9:4j 4. VI. Richmond and Alle-
ghany train, and WAS taken at once to It.
James church, where the funeral services
were conducted by Rev. Mr.. Peterkin,
whence the cOrtege passed TO Hollywood,
where the interment was made.
