TRAITORS.

ssHowl, dam you, howl. I've heard trail
tors howl BEFORE" '''I'l bs damned If I
will 20 back on Arthur while he stands up
to us.'' Such are the quotations from the
speeches Of John S. Wise, the Mahone-Re-
publican and son OF Gen. Henry a. Wise,
the staunch old Democratic Governor Of
Virginia, of stripe now sadly missed in
the State House at Richmond.
The above sulphureous deliverances of
Johnnie Wise are credited to him. the first
in his Chatham speech, the second in his
Appomattox speech. Aside from the indi-
cations of very bad and ungovernable
temper, most unpropitious Of SUCCESS in a
public man, there is much more IN tho 1eel-
ing that gave them expression. Nothing
but the sharpest disappointment at the re-
ception the people gave him at Pittsylva-
mia Court House. Nothing but the green
est jealousy OF the preference the crowd
showed Mr.. Nunford, a loya! and worthy
son of old Virginia, SO much his junior,
and notifying prestige of defeat too
could have thrown as smart man as John
S. Wise so much off his guard as to make
him curse an audience of gentlemen who
were voters and call them traitors. Pitt
sylvania is grand old county full OF good
men, gentlemen of high type and doubt
less in that audience Governor Wiss's son
cursed SO bitterly. were many men com.
peers with his father and his old friends
and supporters, one can imagine the revul'
sion of feeling with which such men re-
garded him after these utterances, and the
Loss of strength which will follow in pop
ulation like that Of Pittsylvania can only
be understood by one who is familiar with
the people.
Traitor, is common word indeed in the
Malone vocabulary now. They apply it
to Massey, Newberry, the Big -Four and
all Readjuster Democrats who consider
that reimbursement is thing of the past,
question settled, and refuse to follow
them in their desertion from their former
party and principles to the Republicans
It comes with poor grace from the papers
and leaders Of this new party, to hurl the
epithet, traitor, in the teeth Of men who
had taken their first lessons in treason
from them. and whose leader is that arch
traitor who turned his back upon the sol
diers who fought with him and upon the
children of his comrades and even spurn-
ed the memory of the dead Confederatea
who fell by his side. All this he did when
he refused under the Tebbs bill to remove
their disabilities in the U. S. Senate; ant
still he and his mad minions cry ''traitor.

The exposure of Malone as it has ap
peared in three letters from Col. Frank G.
Rufin, published in the ''Dispatch," is
the most finished faying of public man
by another that we have ever witnessed.
The interest is all the time kept up by a
conviction OF the truth of every wo I'd that
Col. Rufin utters. Malone and his fol.
lowers are taken all aback, they make no
effort at denial, and only say traitor, which
has become so common an epithet with
them, that the bitter word has lost its sting
along with it meaning as applied by them.
This exposure will do much towards &C
complishing the ruin of the little Boss.
His followers see him in the light of a
petty trickster, whose tricks are as con-
temptible as his schemes are interruptions.
and when he falls, as fall he must, the
wonder will be that such man had ever
controlled Virginians.
The limited space of weekly newspa-
per has embarrassed us in giving these
rich letters to the readers of the VINDI-
GATOR, but No. appears this week in a

they get better and better and twill keep"
