We hope no Democrat will read this ex
tract from the Washington correspondence
of the Alexandria "Gazette,' without
thinking over it afterwards, and while re-
cognizing the truth of some of it, bestir
himself to see that the prophecy is not
correct. We think we could name the
prominent Virginia Republican" at one
guess:
A prominent Virgins Republican in the
city to-day in talking of political affairs in
his State, said he thought Wise would be
elected, for the sole reason, however. that
the Democrats were utterly without or
galizaiion. He said he believed the Dem
0crats had large majority Of the voters
in the State. but that as they had no regu-
larly nominated candidate, they would not
come out to vote unless brought out, and
there is nobody to bl ing them out. He said
1.-THE democrats remind me of apples in my
orchard, which are 30 numerous thns they
are breaking down the trees, and yet they
will bring me no profit, for they will not
gather, pack and ship themselves TO- mar
ket, and who ought to be at home attend
ing to them, am compelled by other bust
ness to be here in Washington" As the
election is nearly five weeks off. the Demo-
Gratis still have time to profit by this cor
rect information.

AFRICA IMPORTED INTO THE
WAR.

Readers OF even the shortest memory
can not yet have forgotten the denuncia-
ton by the Malone orators of two years
ago of the course of the Democracy in in
viting distinguished Democrats from 9th
er States to address their b, ethren. Among
the foremost in this denunciation was tho
Hon. John Paul, who held that the people
of Virginia should not be interfered with
by outside influence. Well. a negro of
Washington City, named ]. N. Langston,
has been bired to canvass Virginia for the
Malone candidates. He filled his first ap-
pointment at Lynchburg last week, and
who dosyou think was his colleague for
the occasion and addressed the same au-
dience of many negroes and less whites !?
Why, the Hon. John Paul OF the Seventh
district. himself; this representative, whose
Virginia stomach, two years ago was SO
Sensitive about interference with the State
that he denounced the introduction of dis
tinguished white Democrats from other
States to address our people. And
the speech of this new African
importation, what was itY 1t opened with
a compliment to the speech of Hon. John
Paul who had just preceded him, in which
Langston said, he ''could hardly under
stand whether he was in Faneuil Hall,
Boston, or old Virginia; he could hardly
understand that so Radical speech could
be delivered in Virginia. After this COM
pliment to ..subalJern, Langston went
on to compliment (prepaid in advance) his
chief, Gen. Malone, whom he said, God
had called to the place of boss" In
Richmond the night after, he en-
larged his admiration of Malone to the
extent Of this blasphemy which we copy
from the report of the Richmond Whiq.
"They say" he said, 'that Malone is boss.
"Wen Noses was something of a boss Jesus
"Christ, and say it with all all reverence, was a
"sboss George Washington, the first in war. the
first in peace and first In the hsarts of his coun-
'trymen was boss"
Among the advantages to be derived by
tho negroes from following Gen. Malone,
the boss, called of Heaven, Langston is re,
ported as saying in his speech at Lynch
burg:
"lf the colored people wanted their children edu-
cated to follow in Aahnnes footsteps to go to tho
Senate be professors. and otherwise great. stick
| ito the Readjnster party, which gave them free
schools and colored teachers for colored schools"
Now is ANYBODY surprised that the white
| Democrats of the S. ate, nay all the white
people of the State. feel more and more
like keeping closer together when they
read such folly, fanaticism and blasphemy

Controlling Dreams.

A Frenchman has recently made
some curious experiments upon him
self, and as a result has announced to
the world that it is possible to control
dreams and make them either pleasant
or otherwise. His method is to stimu-
late the brain through the agency of
heat, and to place the body in certain
positions. He finds that by haudaging
his head with q layer of wadding his
dreams always become sane and intelli-
gent. As regards the position of the
body, the results, so far as the nature
of the dreams are concerned, are varied.
For example, when he lay upon his
back he experienced luxurious and SEN
serial dreams. To sleep on the right
side brought him dreams which were
absurd and full of exsegeration, and
which brought old matters wildly back
to his mind. While lying on his left
side the exaggerated character Of the
visions disappeared. They became
sensible and intelligent, and recalled
more recent experiences. The phenom-
enon OF speech in slumber was also
more apt to be noted while the body
lay in this posture.

Watering Horses.

There is a certain want of common
sense and humanity IN the habit many
persons have of watering horses three
times daily. The only reasonable or
sensible or prudent plan to pursue is
to give the animals water according to
their real wants. This is different mat
ter from giving it to them capriciously
or according to their fancy. If we give
way to the latter we will find the
animal becomes as cunning as a mone sy,
and will play the old soldier a. every
opportunity, pretending TO- drink and
make believe so as tc gain time and
shirk work. But IL IS cruel to compel q
team to pillow or work from morning
until noon, or from noon until night,
without allowing it the privilege of a
refreshing draught. = Planters Journal.
