THE Senate very promptly, and
perhaps justly, refused to confirm Gov.
Blackburns pet railroad commission,
McChesney, Boyd and Thompson, and
that put the old man to the trouble OF
making other nominations. On the
second labor, w. NJ Beckner, Of
Clark, ID. Howard Smith, of Henry,
and W. b. Machen, Of Lynn, were
brought forth, and the nominations
were received by the grave and
reverend Senators with undignifed
applause. With one exception, the
new team is decided improvement
on the one rejected. Col. Smith was
Auditor Of the State for two terms,
and is a man of rare good sense; Judge
Beckner is editor of the Winchester
Democrat and a lawyer Of ability,
while Mr.. Machen has served a short
term in the United States Senate.
They are all men of sense and liberal
views, and will likely fill the positions
with credit. The salaryis 1000 per
year and expenses. ff.

that the jailer should be made to suffer

first place, for making such q distinc
ton among his prisoners, and In the
second, for allowing this man to es-
cape. OF course it was a put up job.

How is this +?

A few years ago the Editor of the Val
leg V5rgi1aiaa was prominent member
of the Straightout Republican party
so prominent that he was nominated
for Lieut.. Governor by the Straightouts.
Is not that party as honest now as il
was then? The Valley Nirginidm now
says that:
'sThere is nothing but selfishness and
disappointed ambition in the Straight
out movement in the present political
condition. There is no Republicanism
In it, except using the name to serve
Bourbonism.
How will the Straightouts-the
friends of Blaine consider this decla.
ration? What has wrought such a
change? Why is not the Valley VSa'-
gia;am for Straightout Republicanism
now as it was but short time since
It il the same party now it was then,
but with greater hopes of success in the
future than it had then. In the future,
it will be the Straightouts-the friends
of Blaine-who will fill the offices, and
not the friends and supporters of Ar
thurs corrupt Stalwart administration.
Straightout Republicans will not suffer
themselves to be Influenced by the pres
emit position of the VSrginiam, but will
vote as their judgments and consciences
dictate. They will maintain their con-
sistency. notwithstanding the somer-
saults of the Wrginian. If the Straight
outs were right few years since, they
are right now.

Col. JAMES 81. SKINNER's SPEECH.
BY special invitation of the Conserv.
alive Democratic Com mittee, Col. James
FL. Skinner, of Augusta, addressed q
large audience at the courthouse in this
place last Friday night. The large
number of persons present indicated q
general desire on the part of our peo.
pie to hear him, and we feel assured
that none who were present went away
disappointed. AS an agreeable and
forcible speaker, Col. Skinner has few
superiors in the State, and he never
fails to do his full share of campaign
work when his services are solicited in
q party contest. No man deserves
greater credit for his unchanging devo-
ton to Democratic principles and the
efficient service that he always renders
when the interests of his State and
country are involved In the issue of an
election.
The speech of Col Skinner on Friday
night was, as an argument in behalf Of
our cause in the pending contest, unan.
swerable. He proved, beyond cavil,
the treachery of Malone, Paul, Wise,
and all the leaders of the 60 called Lib
eral party, who have betrayed the peO-
pie in the most shameless manner, and
now seek to Africanize Virginia by CON
solidating the negro vote against the In
telligence and respectability of the
white population. He exposed thor
oughly the Ubiquitous legislation which
was accomplished by them last winter.
and the purpose of the abominable
measures which were projected by them,
but failed because of the patriotic re-
sistance of Mr.. Massey and the five
Senators who refused to do the bidding
Of the Boss. We regret that the forci-
BILE and spirit.stirring speech Of Colonel
Skinner could not have been heard by
every white man in Albemarle county.
