nOssisIn i'm Virginia.

Under the above caption appeared III We'd
nesday'S New York Herald "A letter from
Mr.. William L. Royal, in which the writer
saws:
Every person who has lived in Virginia,
or who has been there sufficiently long TO
understand the condition of matters. knows
that your correspondent "ClintOn" has
not misrepreSentcd the kind OF govern
mcnt which General Malone has established
there. He is the absolute master OF his
party, and lie rules it with The most dcspot-
ic sway. All OF the negroes in the State are
in his party, and, Is a matter OF course,
he allows them no voice whichever in
its control. The only white men who CO.
operate with him are placC-huntcrS and
Oflicc-seckcrS. These he cOmpcls to sub
nit TO his dictati0n as ii they were slaves.
What your correspondent told YOU Of his
requiring every person whom he allowed
last year to he Il ReadiUStcr candidate for
the Legislature TO sign and seal a pledge to
vote, if elected, for every measure deter
mined on by the Readiustcr caucus is true.
Ii yQyn will take the trouble TO inform YOUR
self Of the facts you will learn that Ma
hone has established a personal govern
mcnt in Virginia, the like OF which never
existed anywhere in this world; personal
government, too, the instruments Of which
arc as vile and corrupt as it is possible for
men TO be.
RIGHTS OF THE COLORED PEOPLE.
You are under very great misappre-
hension in thinking that General Malone
has advocated against sentiment the
other way, "the right of the colored peo-
pie to vote as they pleased ard to have
their votes counted; and that she and
those who act with him have abolished laws
which bore hardly upon the colored voters,
and interIered with their exercise Of poll
tical rights" DO not do the Virgnians
the injustice OF coniounding their actions
with what is alleged against the people of
the States further South in this matter, OF
the truth or falsity OF which / know moth
ing. But do know that from the ending
OF the war TO this time there has been but
little complaint Of fraudulent voting in Vir-
ginia, and no complaint at all Of bulldozing
colored men out OF their votes, and do
Know that the only complaints Of fraud in
voting practiced upon the negroes came
from the counties of which General Ma
hone was the Democratic manager before
he quit the Democratic party, and the whole
State OF Virginia knows that the election
tricks that were used in those counties to
cheat the negroes were tricks Of his inven-
ton when he was "a better Democrat than
Ben. HILL" He and those who act with
hun have abolished no laws which bore
hardly upon the col0red voters and inter-
fered with their exercise OF political
rights.
Mr. Royal then sets forth very clearly
and concisely the history Of the capitation-
tax requirement as prerequisite for yo-
ting, and the State.debt question.

TRYING TO FIGURE HOW TIE HOUSE OF REP
EESENTATIvEs MAY NOT BE DEMOCRATIC.
A Washington special to the Baltimore
Sun Of yesterday says: ut Republican
headquarters here the next House OF Rep
rcscntatiyeS was virtually conceded to the
Democrats after the Ohio election. and III
political circles generally there was scarcely
any other opinion expressed. But for two
or three days past Mr.. JAY llubbell and his
associate, have been whi,tling to keep their
courage UP, and by the exercise OF the
most remarkable ingenuity in manipula-
tion Of figures have produced m appa-
rent Republican majority OF fifteen. This
has been given out rs the best judgment
Of the committee. based on the most trust
worthy $50 called aiyicc> from all quar-
tiers. TO arrive at this extraordinary con-
clusiOn gains are claimed Of which there
is no earthly prospect. y Republican con-
gresham is put down rs from the Second
West Virginia district, when Mr.. Mason,
the Republican candidate in that district,
has in published letter admitted that he
was defeated; and to crown it all, seven
members from Virginia have been put
down in the Republican column. These
are the seven members which have
been promised to the Administration by
Malone in return for the absolute dis
pcnsation Of the Federal patronage in Nir-
ginia and the power to levy blackmal on
the department clerks. Ii Malone elects
these seven members. the Republicans
could hardly imagine thst their votes in
the organization OF the House would be
given without further bargains and con-
cessionS. But it IS not to be looked upon
6s surprising that Il calculation which
makes no allowances for prospective losses
in such States Is New York, Pennsylvania,
and Wisconsin. should include ~ "re-
cularS' mcrccnaries and camp.ioIlOwcrs,
and those who can take hope from such
calculations are hopeful and guilcleSs in
deed.

AccoMAc COURTHOUSE, VA, !
October 81, 1882. }


October 81, 1882.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
There was an immense gathering OF the
people at the Courthouse yesterday to heal
Massey, MAYO, VOLT, and Garrison. They
smoke i'm the order named.
Mr.. Massey made good speech, was lis
tened to attentively. and endorsed and
chcered by the people.
HIS MAJORITY
In this county will be slightly more than
John Daniel received last year. There are
about half a dozen Democrats in the county
who will not support him. There are rs
many more who will vote for John s. Wise
on personal grounds. There are about fifty
Readjusters who will support Massey, and
Wolff will get the intelligent Republicans
who are not oflice-holders.
Colonel Mayo's address was one OF the
lamest ever delivered in this county by an
aspirant for Congress. The fact Is, many
thought he had no speech to make. He
told Joke. as he said on communism as
practiced by Garrison and Volt in STAT
ford countv-about somebody drinking
somebody's whiskey. 1t was rather long,
but good one; so the crowd thought.
BY the way. Colonel Mayo laughed and en-
loved il. He attacked the people for sup
porting Massey, and read a very abusive
article from some paper, and said Mr.. Mas
sew had even been accused OF burning his
house to get the insurance policy on It,.
At this the Parson arose and pronounced
the author
"A LIAR AND A SCOUNDREL."
The crowd yelled and cheered him. The
applause was dcafcning. When quiet was
restored Mr.. Massey pronounced the "cir-
culator OF the report 4 liar and a scoun-
drel," and stood up eye TO eye with The
Colonel. The hearts OF the Accomac pco-
pie went out to the Old Man, and ballots
will be more willingly deposited for him
than ever before.
Colonel Mayo continued in conversational
STYLE with the audience, in which he was
abusive, and got replies from all parts OF
the crowd. He was so interrupted that he
could scarcely proceed, until Judge Garrl-
son appealed TO the people 10 hear HIM,
which they did, under very trying circllm-
stances. for Colonel Mayo continued in his
eXaSpcrating manner
COLONEL WOLFF
spoke next. He made misunderstanding
speech. He knocked over a Mahoneitc in
every sentence. Colonel Mayo came in for
about 90 per cent. Of them. He convinced
the negroes that he was the proper person
for them to vote for; but Malone money
will carry them the other way for Mayo.
Judge Garrison made a powerful speech,
which the crowd responded to by cheer
after cheer.
Accomac will give Massey $50 majority,
and we will do our whole duty by Garrl-
son. ANTI-BOSS.
